Alpha Adryan novel Chapter 27

Grayson looked stunned at the woman standing in front of him. He couldn't believe his eyes, shock filling his features.

This female was the same one his Alpha had been searching for, for the past three years he had been on a hunt, and here she was standing infront of Grayson in all her glory.

His Alpha had been relentless in the search for her. As the days passed on, he got more angrier, and lashed out at smallest of mistakes. People in the pack were scared but they respected the man, for he had been keeping them same from an exterior threat for so long. Putting his pack's safety before his needs.

They have been walking in eggshells around him, fear of setting him off anytime clouding their minds.

Everyone in the pack knew about her, after all she was going to be their luna, that was until she decided to run away.

Flyers with her face on it were distributed in the beginning to let the pack members know who they were searching for. He vividly remembered the females face from those flyers that were handed out all those years ago.

He still remembered how the Alpha had called an immidiate meeting to announce the news of him finding his mate, only to realize that she had ran away from him a mere hours later.

After ordering a cup of black coffee and croissant, which was delicious by the way. The heavenly scent lingering in the air around the whole cafe of baked goods.

After devouring his breakfast, he pays for the meal and continues on his way. He had come to Winston to do some business, having to deliver something and go into the city.

He didn't visit the the town so often during his visits to the city, maybe also the reason why he had failed to notice the female his Alpha was looking for was living right under their noses all this town.

Getting out, smoke appearing in the air as he breathed in the cold surrounding brought forth by the month of December.

Slipping his hands inside his pant pockets he brings out his phone. Dialing the one number everyone in the pack had with them, to report any emergency or something else directly to the Alpha of their pack himself.

Pressing the phone to his ear, he waits for a few moments as the phone rings and its picked up after a few second.

"Alpha Adryan Romano speaking, who is this?" A deep voice speaks from the other side.

"Alpha, it's me Grayson. I have an important news to tell you."

"What is it?" He asks directly.

Grayson pauses for a second, thinking about how he's going to bring up the news to the Alpha.

"I— I think I just saw your mate, Alpha. I think I know where she is".

The only think he received was a few moments of silence, then he hears his Alpha's voice again, speaking.

"Where?" He asks without missing a beat. Grayson could hear the desperation in his voice. It was rare for him to hear his Alpha speak like that since Alpha acted stoic most of the time.

"Winston, Alpha" Grayson replies.

2 days later

Jade looks at the figure in her arms, a smile graces her features as she looks at her two year old son. Sleeping peacefully in her arms. She had been sitting in the rocking chair that was placed at one corner of her bedroom.

Every night, she would take Adonis into her arms, and sit on the rocking chair until he fell asleep to the movement of the rocking chair. Some days she would even sing him a lullaby.

She loved how he would look up at her with admiration shinning in his big sea green eyes, it was moments like this that she was so thankful to the moon Goddess for granting her with eyesight.

Her fingers move through his soft midnight black hair, moving away the long strands that have gotten over the period of time to the side. His head was on her shoulder as soft breaths left his small parted lips, while one of hands were around her neck.

Standing up from the rocking chair with his little body in her arms, she moves towards the crib, big enough to fit in his two year old body.

She softly and slowly places him inside the crib, careful not to wakeup him up from his slumber. It was a long day for both of them today.

Jade had taken him to the park today, Adonis loved playing outside in the nature. He had been running around the park all the time they had been there, kicking a small ball and running as much as his little legs could take him, Jade would watch  him play, sometimes reading a book in between.

A tired sigh leaves her lips as she started feeling sleepy, as she walks towards her own bed. Sitting down on the soft mattress, she was getting ready to go to bed when a the sound halts her movements, the sound of her door bell going off startls her out of her sleepy state.

Her eyebrows scrunch in confusion, looking at the alarm clock beside her bed, kept on her night stand. She checks the time.

12:07 am

'Who could it be at this time of the night ringing her doorbell?' She wondered to herself, it definitely wouldn't be Scarlett, since she was out of town visiting one of her relatives.

She could feel her wolf stirring within herself. A familiar feeling building up inside her. Getting up from the bed she pushes the feeling down.

She leaves her bedroom, moving past the living room which led to her front door.

His words only set off the panic to rise inside of her.

"Jade" the sound of his fist hitting into the wood of her apartment door sounds out loud into the silence of the night. She could feel her heartbeats in her ear now. Loud as well.

His voice send chills down her spine. Panicking, looking side to side, she spots a blankie on her bed. Adonis' blankie to be exact. Rushing towards her bed, she picks it up an covers his body that was in her arms, his head on her shoulder still sleeping soundly.

She could heard the large thudding noises, it kept increasing with each second. It felt like he was ramming his body into the door, she knew that the door couldn't handle much. It would break eventually.

Rushing to the open window in her room, through which she looks down, she realises that the size of it was too small for her and Adonis to fit through.

A large noise reverberates around the apartment just then, alerting her. The sound of her front door breaking into pieces was loud. Dread fills her body as she hears footsteps heading towards her door.

She knew this was it, she couldn't escape him any longer.

Her body moves back, her body flat against the wall of her room, clutching Adonis in her arms, she presses back as much she could. Trying make her body look small but her tries were obviously futile.

She could feel him now, inside the room. He had opened her bedroom door with ease as she had forgot to lock it when she panicked and rushed inside, which she regretted now, not that it would make any difference.

She feels him move closer, his body heat emiting off of him. Tingles appear on her body with their disappearing distance between them.

One of his hand comes to rest beside her head, half caging her in as he moved closer.

She feels his touch on her face, she had her eyes closed, breathing heavily through her nose, as her chest heaves up and down.

He moves her hair back which had been covering a part of her face, pushing back the light red strand and tucking it behind her ear.

"Open your eyes Jade" his deep voice held power, he was using his Alpha command, to make her do as she wished. But she tries to fight the command as best as she could. Trying to close her eyes which as much force as she could, willing herself not to open her eyes no matter what.

"Open" it was as if his voice was like a sirens call for the sailor to come closer, her eyes open on their own accord, her green eyes meet his stormy ocean eyes. The one that resembled the ocean, as the waves crashed against each other during the storm, rain falling and mixing with the sea.

His eyes move towards the small figure clutched in her arms. She felt like her heartbeats had stilled for a moment.

His gaze burning as he looked back at her, with anger and sadness mixed in them.
