The Alpha’s Human Mate

She walked into the big room. Looking around, she saw a big table and chair at the side.

Books were placed on the shelves around the walls of the room. “I guess this is his study.” She said to herself. She walked closer to one of the big shelves and touched it.

She knew that she wasn’t supposed to be there, but she couldn’t help looking around more. She took one of the books from the shelf and cleaned off the dust on it. She saw a picture of a black wolf on the cover of the book, which was titled A Pack of Wolves. “I can’t believe a man like him reads fantasies.” She scoffed.

She was going through the books when her eyes suddenly caught a book. The book had a black cover with no picture on it. “Werewolves rule.” She read it silently. She was about to open the book when she suddenly heard something whispering behind her.

“Ah!” she screamed in fear; she was startled when she heard the voice.

She knew she was the only one in the room, so hearing a sudden voice behind her really scared her. “You scared me.” She said before moving away from him.

“What are you doing here?” Alex asked before looking at what she was holding; he quickly grabbed the book from her and placed it back where it was.

She looked at him and looked back at the book he had returned on the shelf. She wondered why he acted that way. “Is he hiding something?” Ellie thought.

Noticing this. Alex walked closer to her and said, “Don’t tell me you can’t get enough of this face, so you came here to wait for me instead.” He said this, smiling at her. He wanted to divert her from thinking about the book.

“Huh?! No. I just came in by mistake.” She rejected immediately. “I think I should go now.” She walked forward to leave, but he dragged her back towards him; she was so close to him that she immediately moved back.

“I didn’t ask you to go.” He said with his arms crossed in front of his chest. He moved forward towards her again, and she also kept moving back till he stopped.

He brought his face closer to her before saying, “Go have your lunch on time. We don’t want to starve our bundle of joy, do we?” He asked, looking at her with a smile before looking down at her tummy.

Ellie didn’t say anything; she just sighed. She was about to leave the room when she turned back to him and asked, “Um, the girl who came… who is she?” She asked with a low voice; she had been looking for a way to bring it up, even when he was teasing her.

Alex was surprised to hear her question. He looked at her before looking back at his laptop. “It’s none of your business.” He said firmly, which got Ellie upset.

“Oh, I’m sorry. It’s my fault. I will learn how to mind my business next time.” She said before walking out of the room.

“I just can’t believe you, Ellie.” She said, hitting her head lightly on the way.

Meanwhile, in the study room, Alex just sighed before resting his back on the chair.

The next morning, she didn’t bother talking to him; she only answered questions when asked.

She was still angry about yesterday, most especially at herself. She ate her breakfast and followed him to work quietly.

None of them said anything to each other, which made the car quiet and awkward. Even the driver was nervous, but none of them cared about him. Ellie kept looking through the window, while Alex was going through his phone.

When she got to the office, she did all her morning activities, like preparing his coffee and reading his schedule to him. She went back to her office to continue her work. She kept on sighing every minute while working, and her eyes were looking at his door once in a while.

After some minutes, the door to his office opened, and Alex walked to her table. “Let’s go. We’re having lunch outside.” He said, before walking to the elevator, that he did not even bother looking back at her.

Alex had also been looking for ways to talk to her; he also felt bad for talking to her rudely yesterday, and it was because he didn’t want her to find out about him at that moment.

They left the company and entered the car. They were also silent, but this time, Ellie was peeping at him whenever she got the chance.

“Everything about him is just so weird. One time he acts so cold, the next he’s warm, even though it’s not so warm.” She thought.

They finally got to a restaurant. Ellie followed him inside quietly.

They didn’t have to wait before a waiter came and directed them to their seats. But one thing Ellie noticed was that the waiter directed her to another table.

“So, he’s here for a business lunch. Why not tell me before coming? Huh?!” She snorted in her mind, noticing the man who was sitting in front of him; she could only see them through the glass that was separating them.

The waiter came back and placed a lot of food on her table. “What?! Does he take me for a glutton?!” She asked, looking at the food on the table. She looked up at the glass to see him talking to the man without looking at her.

She sighed and decided to just dig in. “At least, the baby shouldn’t suffer.” She thought.

“I’m so happy to finally meet you. I was surprised when my assistant told me you’d be joining me for lunch.” The man said to Alex with a smile. He was also a werewolf, and he had a small business in City A, which he was managing. He was so happy when he heard that Alex wanted to invest in his company.

“It’s fine. Let’s eat now.” He said to the man and took his cutlery, but not before looking beside him to check on her.

He saw how she was eating everything together, not caring about where she was. He smiled lightly before looking back at his food.

“Is she your assistant?” The man opposite him asked.

“Hmm,” Alex replied without looking at him. The man wanted to ask another thing, but he stopped so as not to anger the alpha.

“Ellie!” She heard someone call her name, and she looked back only to see the man she had been trying to avoid.

“What are you doing here?” Sam asked, walking closer to where her table was.

“Um… I came here to have lunch.” She stuttered, cleaning up the sweat that was starting to form on her forehead. Sam looked at her before taking a chair to sit opposite her.

“OK. Are you okay? I’ve been trying to reach you, but your number is not going through, and I heard that you left the company?” He asked, looking into her eyes as if trying to find answers.

“I’m sorry for not telling you; I have some things I need to explain to you, but I don’t think this is the perfect time.” She said, looking at him in fear, scared that he might find out about her pregnancy.

“Are you okay?” Sam asked, holding her hands with his across the table. She also looked at him and tried to take her hands away, but the door beside them suddenly opened with a loud sound.

She looked back and saw him staring at them, as if he were a lion and was about to pounce on them at any minute.

Mr Alex! Sam whispered in surprise.
