Hiding His Baby: The Alpha's Rejected Mate novel Chapter 65

THREE YEARS AGO

There’s a big party going on in the biggest hotel in the town. A big celebration was going on there. Everyone was happy because they found their new leader who was truly deserving. They couldn’t be happier. 

Alpha Dominic, Alpha of Crescent Mystery pack is now the alpha of alphas in the north region. He had to fight his way through a lot to get to that position. And truth to be told, no one had any objection about it. All the packs accepted him wholeheartedly as their leader because no one else could lead them the way he would do.

As everyone was busy celebrating and enjoying the moment, she was looking for a way to get into the party hall. She wasn’t invited to the party because rogues weren’t allowed to be in such parties.

But she didn’t care about that. Because she didn’t even want to be a part of any pack to be blinded with rules and rules. She is better off as a rogue. Athena quickly shook her head to come out of the thought and focused on what she was doing. She had come here with a motive and she is not going to get it ruined.

She sneakily climbed up the pipe and got inside the second floor of the hotel through the open window of the hallway. Loud music was playing downstairs but thankfully things were a little quieter here.

Now all she has to do is go through each room of the pack members and look for some cash or valuable jewellery. Take them and run away. As simple as that!

She knew the risk she was going through at that moment, it was as risky as playing with fire. Because the party was not of some usual Alpha‘s. It was of Alpha Dominic..

She has heard a lot about him. The things were cold, heartless, rude, dangerous and blah blah blah. There wasn’t one good thing which she heard about him. Hence she was afraid of getting caught there because she knew it won’t end up well for her.

“Shh, Athena! Focus! You can’t get distracted by such-…” She suddenly stopped talking in the middle as she closed her eyes with a deep frown. 

“What is this scent?” She breathed out as she took a big sniff of the scent around her which was enough to make her go breathless. A scent of musky after rain along with fresh lemon filled her nostrils, making her and her wolf go crazy. It was making her feel out of the world at that moment.

But she was soon pulled back into the world when the scent kept getting stronger every passing second and it made her nervous. She knew what was happening to her and she knew waiting there any longer would get her caught for sure. But she couldn’t move from her place. She kept standing there to get caught and eventually get destroyed. She couldn’t explain the feeling.

But the moment she heard a loud and threatening growl coming toward her from the darkness ahead, she knew standing there any longer would be nothing but a suicide.

With that thought plastered in her mind, she pushed her howling wolf at the back of her mind. She can’t get caught for such THING. She quickly turned back toward the open window, preparing herself to jump. She didn’t care if she would be seriously injured after this, her wolf had this power to get healed in a blink of an eye. So, it wasn’t the main reason for her worry. It was the scent and dangerous growl which kept advancing her faster than ever. She quickly turned around, ready to jump off the window again but it was too late.

“MATE!”

She heard a knee weakening hard, powerful and husky voice, halting her on her steps. The scent was stronger than ever which is why she was getting controlled by that voice so easily. She suddenly felt a pull on her right wrist and within a blink of an eye she was twirled around and was pressed against the wall. Her breath hitched and got quickened at the same time. And she knew it was the same for him because his hot breath was fanning her face harshly. With a crazily beating heart, she slowly raised her eyes to look at the person in front of her and she forgot to breathe.

She instantly recognised the Greek god in front of her. It was Alpha Dominic, alpha of Crescent Mystery pack The alpha of alphas and... Her MATE. The man was breathtakingly handsome with a sharp jawline which could even cut the glass. His eyes, his shaddy grey eyes were looking deep into her soul. He was wearing a black shirt which was open from up, giving her a nice view of his shiny shaved strong chest. But there was a small frown on his face which she wanted to remove at any cost.

She noticed that he was breathing harder than normal and his face was red. He was sweating too much in the cool weather as well. Most importantly, he didn‘t look well and in a sense to her.

That worried her. She was shocked by her own thoughts. Worried? Caring? How can she feel such strong emotions for a man whom she just met?! From where is she getting the feeling of doing anything for a man she just met?! What’s happening to her?! 

“M...mate.... You are my mate…” Dominic breathed out while touching her face slowly. She hissed the moment his hand touched her. She felt as if he burned her. Because along with the sparks from the bond, his hands were really hot. She quickly touched his face with a frown to check his temperature and her eyes widened in shock.

“Oh my god, you are literally burning in a fever. You have a really high temperature. You should go to the doctor!” She exclaimed in worry while pulling her hand away from him immediately but she wasn’t successful in doing that. He caught her hand in the middle and put it back on his face, making her look at him in shock. 

He closed his eyes as soon as her hand touched him again. He let out a ragged breath before starting to drag her hand down to his neck from face, making her touch him. He started to drag her hand lower slowly. Her hand was inside his shirt now as he roamed her hand all over

his chest and hard six pack. She was too shocked to move or pull her hands back.
