Alpha Adryan novel Chapter 2

His presence was a force to be reckoned with, someone extremely powerful and his aura emitting darkness like no other.

His presence is of one that wouldn't go unnoticed in a room full of people.

He smells like vanilla, sweet and addicting.

"Alpha" The Beta greets his Alpha, confirming her suspecion right.

Alpha Adryan Romano

"Mine" his voice growls out, and she feels the wind shift around them. A few minutes passes by but he doesn't do anything to acknowledge her, his mate.

Alpha Adryan Romano couldn't believe his eyes, all those years his father had spend telling him that he didn't have a mate out there was an utter bullshit. He had heard people spread a lot of rumours about him, some went even far as to say that 'the moon goddess wouldn't make a mistake of blessing him with a mate. A beast like him deserves to die alone'. He never wanted a mate after what he had seen his sweet, timid mother go through his father's hands, and they were mates.

"Who is she and what is she doing in my territory?" His voice is one of dripping honey, husky and deep at the same time. Perfect combination.

Her wolf whines in her head, realising that her mate didn't acknowledge her presence and sadness fills her body as the thought of rejection clouds her mind.

"What are you doing in my territory rogue?" He spits out the word rogue which makes her flinch back and causes her wolf to whine again.

"I- I didn't-t knnow thatt I-i was tress-passing on your terri-tory" she stutters out in fear.

"What's your name mate?" He asked her.

"J-Jade" I reply.

Jade. His mate was beautiful, he thought to himself as he studied features. She smelled like strawberries. She was short and had curves in all the right places. Her strawberry blonde hair stuck to forehead as she was drenched due to the rain but it didn't hide her beauty. Her eyes, her green emerald eyes held so much emotion, but one stood out the most to him. Pain. A pang goes through him knowing that he was the cause of her pain.

Her mate growls and she feels him take a step forward, towards her direction. He stands before her and she could feel his minty breath on her forehead, her head was bowed down, pointing towards the ground and her whole figure trembles in fear.

Even if she couldn't see him physically, she could tell that he was really tall. He stood a head above her short frame. Her  five feet three inch frame would probably look like a midget next to him.

"Look at me" he grits out and the sound of clenching of his jaw doesn't go unnoticed by her. She shakes her head side to side as tears leave her eyes, trailing down her face in a fast motion.
