The Alpha's Slave Mate

Chapter Seventeen

Caleb’s Point of View

I have never felt so hopeless as I did when my mate started crying. These were not tears like you see on television. This was full out sobbing from the heart. It twisted my stomach up knowing that she has endured so much mental and emotional pain in her lifetime. It also makes me angry that people have treated like this so much that she believes that she does not deserve to be love. I made a vow right there and then that I would spend the rest of my days ensuring that she knows that she is loved and adored. : When she pulled back from me, I wanted to show her that her life would be different moving forward. I have Waited so long for my mate that I was ready to beg her to stay with me. To give us achance. I am hoping with time and patience that she will come to love me and need me as much asI need her. I know that my pack will accept her with open arms. They have been waiting for me to find my mate.

I do need her; I crave just being in her presence. She does not realize her affect on me yet. Just sitting near her brings a peace to my mind that I have never known. I meant every word that I said to her, she is as important to my life as my next breath. Iam aware that I was very close to being a feral wolf, she saved me. She saved my pack. I had made Theo swear to me that if I ever went feral, that he would end my life. I knew that it would break his heart to do so, but a feral Alpha can destroy his pack without mercy. For the greater good of our pack he agreed. '

I am going to have to take things slow with Daphne. I do not want her to ever be afraid of me. Hopefully, Hannah and a few of the other pack females will help her get dressed. I am so excited that I get to teach my mate to dance. Imagining holding her in my arms tonight is like envisioning heaven on earth. Just when I thought that my imagination could not get any better, I hear the shower turn on.

I could not resist walking a little closer to her. “Um, I didn’t know if I should put my old clothes back on or wait for your person to come.” Her voice is so soft. I can tell that she is still very unsure of the whole situation. Once again when she speaks, she casts her

I watch a drop of water run from her hair line, down her nose, and fall on to her perfect lips. I cannot help myself and I lick it off. She tenses slightly but does not pull away. : I wrap my arms around her, pulling her into my chest. “Daphne I will never hurt you. I will never do anything that you do not want me to do. If I ever step out of line, you only have to say stop. To hurt you would be like ripping my own heart out and shredding it. I know you are scared and that everything is changing fast. I will try to go slowly, give you time to adjust. Please try not to look down at the floor when we are talking though. I love your eyes. I get lost in them every time I look at you.” I want her to know that she is the most beautiful person I have ever laid eyes on. I Kiss the top of her head, and she is slowly relaxing into me. This moment is pure

Oh, by all that is light and beautiful in the world my mate actually laughed. The sound was like angels singing. “What is so funny?” “Nothing, just no man has ever looked at me really and here your ready to blind your best friend.” Her eyes are twinkling, and I can not help but smile back at her. She turns and walks back into the bathroom, and I can not help but watch every move she makes. I walk over and greet Theo. Behind him I can see Hannah, and it looks as if Hannah has round up three other girls as
