Alpha Kian And His Captive Mate novel Chapter 35

"Didn't I ask you to take her straight to her room? Whose instructions should you be following?"

"Yours, Alpha, I'm sorry. She was in her room for a minute and then wanted to wait by your study to talk to you."

What was up with Ren and now Eric? These two seemed to listen to Nyla instead of following their Alpha's orders.

Even Rachel was so upset when I told her to stop hanging out with Nyla. She was all defensive of her and scolded me for hurting her. My little sister always took my side until very recently. She was close to Leah too, but not so much.

I stopped in my tracks when I could sense my new Gamma Travis's presence, along with Nyla and Eric's scents. My brow furrowed when Nyla's voice became clearer. She wanted to know if my pack's third in command was related to Ryder. What for?

Travis and Eric sensed my presence, and their bodies stiffened. Nyla then noticed me glaring at her and she glared right back. Walking close to Travis, she placed a hand on his shoulder and continued her conversation like I didn't exist.

Rex took over and using his speed, I grabbed hold of Travis and pinned him to the wall.

"Al... Alph..." He was choking, and I knew he would die if I didn't let him go.

"Didn't Ryder tell you my mistress is off limits?"

Fucking Rex will get Nyla killed for sure. Everyone knew I never had a mistress before because I wasn't possessive about whoever I fucked. She walked over as if she was super innocent and placed a hand on my arm.

"Alpha, please. It's not his fault."

I guess no one had exploited the mate bond better than her. She obviously knew the only reason she and her friend were alive was this bond. And now, she was using it to provoke me while knowing full well how much of a struggle it was for me to stay away from her.

Rex calmed down and let Travis go, but I was still pissed at her. What the fuck did she want? She pushed me away every single time I touched her and was now touching another man to just test my limits.

Travis found his voice after coughing a bit and gasping for air.

"I didn't touch her. She j-just wanted to know h-how I was..."

He was Ryder's younger brother. This wasn't the first time I almost choked him to death. If Rachel hadn't stopped me last year, he would have already been dead for pushing her around.

I knew it wasn't his fault this time. But Rex would obviously not get mad at Nyla even if she puts a knife through his heart. It's always my fault, and he's now taking it out on my poor gamma.

'Mate is mad at us. Kiss her until she forgets what happened just now.'

I caught her wrists and pinned them up against the wall. Fuck! Tying those wrists to my headboard and barreling into her uncontrollably was all I could think of. I smashed my lips to hers and kissed her hard.

Sparks ran through my veins at the mere touch of her palms against my chest. She tried to resist my kisses as usual but did something more besides using all of her strength to push me away.

She bit my lips. Hard. The room got too damn hot suddenly.

Closing my fist tightly around her hair, I tugged at it to pull her head back and expose her neck. She shivered at the touch of my nose against her skin. Breathing in deeply to take in as much of her scent, I licked the marking spot and didn't want to stop.

"St-stoooop!" I could feel her fingernails dig into my shirt while her eyes were flitted close.

She wrapped her arms around me and almost kissed me. Her hooded eyes snapped open and looked at me as if she wanted to get away with it in case I hadn't paid attention.

"It's all right. There's no need to hold back. I want them wet kisses on my chest when I'm fully awake."

The look on her face was so adorable while it turned a sexy shade of pink. I pulled her into me and took her mouth again.

I loved kissing her of course, but this one tasted insanely good. It was because she reciprocated, very hesitantly, she twined her tongue with mine, driving me ecstatic. I deepened the kiss while hooking my arm around her waist and picking her up.
