Kidnapped by the Alpha novel Chapter 20

NATALIE'S POV:

My sleep got disturbed when I heard some noise from the room. I woke up and noticed someone hiding behind the curtains. I was terrified and was about to yell but the person came from behind the curtains. He was Abram.

"Natalie, please don't make noise", Abram pleaded by joining his hands.

I got down from the bed and went near him. Is he for real, or am I hallucinating? I touched him and quickly withdrew my hand.

"You are alive?", I asked in a low voice.

"Yes Natalie, I am alive. I know you are having a lot of questions in your mind, and I'll answer all your questions but not now. Natalie, I am here to tell you that Theodore's life is in danger", Abram told and I was shocked listening to him.

"What are you saying, Abram? How do you know that Theodore's life is in danger? Where were you, so many years? How did that wolf spare you? Are you a werewolf too---?", I asked and Abram nodded.

I punched him and he looked towards me sadly. "Do you know Abram, these years I was living in guilt thinking that you died because of me! Didn't you even bother to inform me that you were alive?"

"What would I have told you, that I am alive? That the wolf attack was done to kill you? That my own brother wants to kill you?", Abram told with tears in his eyes.

"What are you saying, Abram? Who is your brother and why would he kill me?", I asked confusingly.

"Carl Saxena, the Alpha of Red Blood Pack, is my brother. He believes that our parents died because of you", Abram replied.

"Abram, your parents killed Theodore's entire pack, they killed my real parents and my adoptive parents too", I roared.

"I know that Natalie. All the evil, including the Red Blood Pack, is behind your life because you are a healer and a destroyer of the evils. Natalie but I love you", Abram told looking right into my eyes.

"Abram, I am Theodore's mate. I don't know much about these werewolf things but I know one thing, Theodore loves me a lot and I love him too. I just don't care if your brother is behind my life but I want my mate Theodore and my pack safe", I told. Did I just say my pack and my mate? I was shocked at myself

Abram looked at me and said smiling, "Yes, of course, you deserve a mate like Theodore. He cares so much for you and loves you a lot"

"Natalie, where is the locket?", Abram asked looking at my neck.

"Which locket?', I asked confusingly.

"The one which your dad gifted you on your 8th birthday. Natalie that locket is not an ordinary one, it will shield you from all the danger", Abram replied.

Wait, I don't know why am I finding this weird? Abram was helping me by going against his own brother and his pack. I found this very strange. I mean, I have seen the members of Theodore's pack. They are ready to give their life just to protect Theodore and their pack but Abram, he was going against his own pack.

"I know Natalie you might be thinking, why am I going against my own pack. The reason is that I love you and I don't want you to love me back. I just want you to be safe and happy, with your mate.", He answered smiling. I could see tears in his eyes, and his attempts to stop them from flowing.

"That locket of mine is at home", I told and he said, "I'll get it for you"

"No, you won't be able to find that locket. I have to accompany you", I replied as I had kept that locket in a drawer of my cupboard. The key to my cupboard was inside my teddy bear and the key to the drawer was somewhere under the bed. That locket was very beloved to me.

"Natalie, but if Theodore gets to know, he would be furious with you and he would kill me as well. He will hunt us through our scent", Abram replied.

"I have a solution for this", I replied and went towards the dressing table and came with a perfume. I sprayed the entire bottle of perfume on me as well as Abram.

"But Natalie----", Abram tried to speak but I interrupted him in between and replied, "Abram, come let's leave before Theodore comes back to the room, I have to return back"
