Alpha Princess' Unexpected Fate

Chapter 5

Eva’s P. O. V.

My eyes became heavy but I made sure to keep blinking so that I do not lose my consciousness right now.

Because if I do, I fear that I might end up losing my memory of this instant once again like the other times. And this would be the last thing I want to happen to me. Because, I absolutely do not want to forget what I am seeing right at this moment.

Eyes.

Yes, eyes. They were grey in colour and the most beautiful ones that I have ever seen in my life until now. And the fact that those eyes were fixed on nothing but me right at this moment, was making me even more dizzy for some reason.

In fact, it was not just the eyes which were making me weak but the man who it actually belongs to. A familiar face with an unknown aura around him was what did the job without any hurdles. And it will not be a lie if I say that I am indeed going crazy, as I have never had such kinds of feelings ever, when I just can not decide what to do or what not to. I can not even think straight at this moment, as my mind has already turned blank. On the other hand, while I felt weak from within in the presence of that guy, some strange sensation had suddenly started to stir inside my body as if something is tossing and turning at the farthest corner of my conscience.

I wonder what it is?

Is it my wolf?

Is it really my angel? Is she back? I wondered for a moment. But the voice inside me was still silent.

However, the most important question right now is why the hell I am feeling like this right now, as if I am going to lose all my senses? And that too, because of him?

Standing inside the empty classroom, I could not help but keep staring at the man as if my life kind of depends on him.

Why?

Why the hell am I acting like this? This is definitely not me.

Knowing that I was acting out of my nature, I tried to look away while I attempted to step back, but I failed miserably. Rather, the guy who was staring at me with some kind of blazing desire in his eyes, did not allow me to go any far away from him. Instead, he tightened his hold on me, making me come even closer to him than before.

If this never happened today, I might have kept believing that I turned human after my wolf died. But now, I can not even say that. Cause what he said in the next moment made my entire body shiver due to some unknown feelings which came flooding inside me all of a sudden, only to make me even more confused.

Cause, as soon as he leaned down, his cold lips brushed passed my skin while his warm breath that fell gently on my neck, did not stop assaulting me in a different way so I could not help but shudder in his arms. And it was the moment when I heard him say something which I was expecting the least,

“How could you forget me, Mate?”

Yes.

I heard right and so did you.

He said Mate.

You must be wondering what is happening here. Well, then I guess, I have to take you all back to this morning when I and Mia left for school at last.

**** flashback****

“We are here.” Luckily, we reached Mia’s school on time. Thanks to my beauty, I mean my ride for today.

“Okay bye then.” Mia hurriedly jumped down from the backseat of my bike and was about to storm out of my sight just when I felt the need to have a quick chat with her as the elder sister.

“Hey! Mia. Listen. How about I pick you up from school every day from now on? Would you mind?” I asked carefully. It is just that I did not want her to think that I was somehow preventing her freedom by keeping a close watch on her. Cause, heaven knows, that it is not my intention at all. Instead, I just wanted to keep my little sister safe and sound after what we heard from Dad.

“No. It is cool with me. But do not make me wait, Eva. See you later.” With that she ran inside the building in no time.

I was worrying for nothing, I guess. Mia accepted my offer without any argument. Perhaps, she too realised how intense the situation became this time with an event of murder within our territory.

Feeling content, I put on my helmet and hit the accelerator once again.

The cold morning breeze which seemed gentle a while ago started to pierce my skin as I sped up my bike, only to go as fast as I could. It is not that I was late, but it is just that I always liked the speed, as only through this can I forget about all the abilities that I always lacked.

I kind of feel free for a moment when I could feel the speed.

And like every other day, today was no different for me either. I was running fast on the wide empty road at a great speed but for some unknown reason, I could not clear my head. You see, things about the mysterious murder kept getting a serious deal for me as well, when my mind was already preoccupied with the strange things that had begun to happen to me, as I started to wake up to different places quite often now.

I wonder, should I tell dad about my problems? Or will it make him even more worried when he already has so many things to worry about as the King of alphas.

I debated with myself about this over and over again, but still could not come to any conclusion. In the meantime, I reached school. So, I took a quick turn and parked my bike in the parking lot. But even before I could take off my helmet and get down, I heard her voice.

“Hey! Over here. I was waiting for you like forever, you know. What took you so long?” Linda asked and rushed to my side with a big bright smile on her face.

She is the brightest girl that I have ever known. Being with her makes me feel positive all the time because she has solutions to all kinds of problems in the world.

Anyway, I slowly got down from the bike a greeted her with a smile just like always.

“Do not ask.

By the way, what is it that you wanted me to show?” I enquired as soon as I met her. She seemed super excited today for some reason. Rather, I should say someone to be precise.

“Well. Well. Let us get inside first. The class is about to begin. I will give you all the details later. Come.”

With that, we rushed inside the school, being completely unaware of the fact that my entire world was going to shatter in the coming time. Though I cared the least to give it any thought, I felt something different about this school ground today. In short, as soon as I arrived, I have started to feel uneasy for some reason, but I just can not point out what that is exactly.

Maybe I was overthinking since this morning. So, I decided to ignore my intuitions and went ahead with my regular schedule.

Linda and I settled ourselves at our desks at the end of the row just like always as soon as we reached the classroom. Seeing that the teacher was not there yet, I felt like taking to Linda as my curiosity did not allow me to stay put any further.

“Hey! Linda. Tell me now. Who is that new guy you were talking about? I bet; I have not seen any new faces yet.” I whispered and leaned closer so that I could hear her.

Linda did say something.

But surprisingly, I could not hear her at all. I furrowed my brows and tried to concentrate just when some kind of anxiety started to stir up inside me all of a sudden. I could still see how she kept saying further as I saw her lips moving, but unfortunately not a single word fell on my ears.

Because of this, I could not help but get more and more frustrated.

I could not understand the reason for such strange events that had occurred to me recently.

What is wrong with me?

I wondered.

Soon I realised that I had been holding up my breath all this time, just when a sweet smell of rainforest suddenly started to open all the pores on my body little by little. My mind started to lose all its reasons as I was getting quite anxious and was looking here and there like crazy. As if I was trying to find something but I did not know what it was.

No, I could not stay still any longer. If I do, I think I will go crazy for sure.

“Damm it.”

I stood up abruptly without knowing why. it is just that, something inside me kept saying that I should not be here right at this moment.

“What… what happened, Eva?” Stopping in the middle of what she was saying, Linda asked. She must have noticed how uneasy I have become all of a sudden, as her concerned eyes were enough for me to know that I have definitely acted odd.

But right now, I cared the least about any of these.

“I am going to the washroom.” I quickly replied and ran down the gallery as fast as I could, but Linda’s words did not fail to reach my ears in the meantime.

“But the new teacher is going to come anytime now. Eva.” She uttered.

To hell with your teacher. I do not give a f**k about all this now. I just feel like running away as far as possible where all these unwanted feelings that I am having right now will disappear and I could go back to being normal once again.

Now, I really wonder if that is even possible.

Without being able to think straight anymore, I left the classroom and was about to go to the toilet, just when I felt some intense force all over my body and even before I could figure out what it was, I was caught by two sturdy arms quite abruptly and was pulled inside an empty classroom within a fraction of a second.

I could have screamed; I could have struggled but I did none of this.

Because I found answers to all my questions at once.

The millions of sparks which I have started to feel all over my body right now are the answer to all my questions. It felt like time had stopped for me in some way. I could clearly hear heartbeats, though I still do not know if it is mine or his. The heat slowly started to grow under my skin and betrayed me all of a sudden by making me absolutely weak before him.

Though I am one of the strongest fighters in our school, I could not break out of his arms no matter what.

I started to breathe as much as I could, but still, I found myself getting breathless while his warm breath started to fan on my shoulder, only to make me shudder again and again.

The broad and wide chest which was stuck to my back all this time was shaking as well, making me realise that it is not just me who is feeling lost when I was just found once again.

I do not even have to look at him to know who he is cause, I know already. I felt like this before too. Though it was once and for a very short while, still I remembered everything about that day. And now I am feeling the same.

The mate bond, I guess.

Yes, my mate and he has returned.

Even though he was quite reluctant to let me move even for an inch, I slowly turned around only to look at him finally. And the first thing that caught my eyes was those beautiful grey orbs.

At this moment, only one name came to my mind. And it was his.

‘Cole.’
