Alpha's Second Chance novel Chapter 206

“You have been following me?” she says, and it sounds like a question, but I am pretty sure it’s not.

“I needed to be sure you were safe,” I say.

“Why did you hide?.” She asks but sounds like she is afraid of what I will answer

“I am not sure, and I was a little afraid. You are a Princess, I am just an orphan, not even a warrior.” I say, and she looks over my shoulder, without doubt at the two dead wolves.

“I would say you are pretty good to be one.” She says, and I chuckle.

“You are welcome,” I say, And we are quiet for a bit.

“I do not have a wolf.” She says after a long time.

“I know, I smelled it,” I say, and she is quiet.

“I understand if you don’t want, I mean. I won’t have problems. I know I am not the ideal mate,” she whispered.

“Stop,” I say and look into her eyes.

“I have waited seven years, almost eight, for you, my mate. I do not care if you have a wolf or not. And from what I saw, you know how to fight,” I tell her, and a tear falls from her face.

“What’s wrong?” I ask her.

“Everyone, except my family, has seen me as broken and useless. My first mate rejected me because of this.”

“I told you, I am a nobody. I have nothing to offer, only myself and my skills,” I tell her, but she just smiles a little.

I look into her eyes, and we stand like that for a little while. The temptation eventually becomes too much, and I kiss her again. First slowly, but when she didn’t push me away, I deepened the kiss and felt her arms lock behind my neck. I softly push her up against the wall, so our bodies are all close, and a small moan slips out from her. I slowly let go and just looked at her.

“I know we have to stop. We can’t do this here, and not now,” I say, and she nods her head.

“I was going to find somewhere to sleep for the night. We do that, and we talk tomorrow,” she says, and I agree.

When I woke up, I saw the sun shining through the windows. But it had gotten late last night because of the attack. But also, I found my mate! Well, second chance mate, and he didn’t reject me, and he seemed like he was afraid I would reject him.

I don’t care what rank he has; for my sake, he could be a kitchen servant if it meant he wouldn’t reject me and leave me.

*PLING* *PLING*

The sound came from my phone, and I took it and looked.

>>Princess, we didn’t hear from you, and I had a feeling something was going on. Are you okay?<< Dad was messaging me.
