My Arrogant Mate
Chapter 14

The monotonous noise of the tires on the asphalt was the only thing that my ears still perceived to some extent. There was nothing else, just absolute darkness, which also spread deep into my core.

The brown leather of the side seats felt cold and smelled new, like this car had been bought to put me in the back.

The two masked men sat in front and whispered to each other, which I didn't give a damn about. I didn't listen to them at all, even if I could have. Instead, I kept my still watering eyes closed and hugged my arms tightly against my body. My brother would now call it an embryo position...

This nasty thought of never being able to see him again made me startle and gasp for air.

"Everything okay?" asked the one on the passenger seat, who had just been addressed as Bene, and turned to me while he pulled off the black mask.

I looked at him in surprise. He didn't look at all like someone who would kidnap girls against their will. He was the typical sunny boy with his blond-brown short curls and warm green eyes.

Completely overwhelmed, I avoided his gaze and slid as close as I could to the window to take a look outside to see that we were just driving over the bridge. All you could see was still, dark water that glittered slightly in the moonlight.

At the end of the huge lake there was only forest. The forest that was to blame for my situation. If only I had never gotten inside him... But surely they would have found me anyway...

One meant the Alpha's mate. That struck me as completely absurd. Why should I of all people be his mate? Shouldn't fate assign him one of the superiors instead of me?

"Good morning," I was snapped out of my thoughts and only now felt that the car had stopped at the end of the bridge. The driver had his window down and was talking to a guard who seemed to be checking we weren't some intruders who shouldn't be here. I wanted to grab his gun and shoot everyone...

"Then have a nice morning."

The car started moving again and for the first time I saw the territory of the superiors. Even if everything seemed pitch black, I could see some of my surroundings. You could see right away that rich people lived here. The streetlights alone shone such a beautiful gold that one of them was probably worth more than my home.

I didn't have much time to look further because it wasn't long before we stopped at a really big looking house. It wasn't as modern as I imagined the houses at the uppers to be, but it still looked beautiful.

A white facade, dark brown window frames, what felt like a hundred rose bushes in the front yard and a small pond that you hardly noticed in the dark.

"So, get out Princess", said the driver and when he and Bene left the car, I crossed my arms and didn't even think about doing them this favor.

My thoughts were still with my brother, of whom I didn't know if he had even managed to call someone for help or if he was still on the ground like a beaten dog. Updated by FindNovel.net; visit us for more free novels.

"Did not you hear?!" The driver yanked open my door and then pulled the mask off his head. Just looking at it made my heart race and I had an uncomfortable feeling in my stomach. Scars littered his face as his poisonous green irises glared at me. He was also bald, which even somehow went with his plump face.

Ugly bastard....

"Yes, I heard you. I prefer to stay here though!"

After my words, I immediately avoided his gaze. He shouldn't have noticed my fear and I was obviously trying not to get down, but this bald guy didn't seem to have any tact or pity in him.

Roughly, almost painfully, he pulled me out of the car by my arm and then pushed me roughly against the car.

"Don't act like a stupid toddler!" he growled and I immediately tried to push him away, but I couldn't. Instead, my lips and hands began to tremble as my knees went rubbery at his withering glare. If he hadn't pinned my arms against the car, I probably would have passed out with excitement.

"I just want to know how my brother is," I then mumbled, intimidated and hoping that they would allow me to make a phone call, but he suddenly laughed and looked up at Bene, who was standing a little further away under a lantern tapped his cell phone. "Did you hear that? She wants to know how the wimp she couldn't even protect is doing," he continued to laugh, turning his gaze back to me.

"Leave her alone, Igor", Bene said and then came towards us.

I trembled with anger at the way he was talking about Devin and bit my bottom lip so hard in anger that the taste of blood immediately filled my entire mouth.

"Shut up!" I hissed in anger and it seemed to me that my fear had suddenly disappeared completely.

"Ohhhh, the little one is getting mad," he grinned dirty and at that moment I lifted my leg to ram my knee full force into his balls.

Howling in pain, he let go of my arms and clutched his stomach for a deep breath as he fell to the ground looking a heap of misery. I lifted my nose in triumph and even had to smile at my courage. Then I heard Bene laughing next to me and glanced over at him as he took pictures of the one on the ground until a growl was heard behind us and Bene's laughter faded.

"Don't you guys manage to do even the simplest of tasks?!", the alpha spoke with tenor in his voice and then glanced at me to immediately focus on Igor.

"What about him?" he asked directed at Bene, who nodded in my direction.

"She knocked him out."

The Alpha's dark, almost black, irises struck me, and the memories of our encounter in the forest flooded my mind.

He looked the same as he did as a wolf. His jet black hair seemed perfectly set despite the fact that it seemed so tousled. In addition to this angry, cold look, which he also radiated in his wolf form. And yet, there was something that fascinated me about him. So much so that I couldn't even take my eyes off it, despite wanting nothing more.

"Take her to her room."
