Camilla's POV
Alpha's Hated Mate
Camilla's POV
Mirabelle and I went out to this bar in town. It was so packed that Tyga performed with some little artists I have no idea who they were but they weren't bad. For the first time in what seems like forever I let loose and had fun. I wasn't thinking about anything, not Arieya, not Karla, not even Adrian.
We got so drunk wait drunk is an understatement we were beyond drunk, wasted as fuck and I'm pretty sure I fucked my best friend. But that isn't the first time Belle and I have had a lesbian encounter so let's put a pin on it. I went back to bed after my bath because I had a terrible hangover. I turned only to find Mirabelle coming in.
“How am I this drunk and you're sober?”
“Have something to eat.” Mirabelle says pointing to the side of the bed. I get up and open the soda. I haven't had Soda for a long time. I hated it when I was pregnant and now the unfamiliar taste makes me tingle.
I gulp the liquid. “Not bad.”
Mirabelle sits close to me in bed. “Adrian called today I didn't pick up.”
I stopped halfway parting my lips to take another sip at the mention of Adrian. Our situation ship is toxic and at the same time puzzling. One minute I love him and the next I hate him.
“I blocked his number off my phone. I need to think some more.”
Mirabelle trails her fingers on my lap drawing a circle as we locked gaze. “You know he'd be mad crazy if he knew I was sharing you with him.”
A flashback to us licking our pussies, eating each other out in style and grinding against the other as we cum flashed through my mind. The reminder of it had me growing wet, Belle tastes so good.
“Sharing no baby you're mine.” I tease pecking her lips. And we both laugh.
“What did you take last night?"
“Nothing.”
“You're not stupid enough to get drugged are you?"
I put my drink down and nod remembering someone had bought me a drink and Mirabelle laughs.
“Hey we all have slip ups.” I defend.
“Not this Beta and Alpha slip ups are deadly, remember.” Belle demonstrates wiping a line around her neck.
“Always.” I laugh.
“I think I love it here.”
“You do?” I ask.
“Yes and this should be our gateway place.” Mirabelle says, scrolling down her phone.
“King knows about it so we need to find another place.”
“I trust him enough he wouldn't blab without cause.” she hasn't looked up from her phone.
I nod and giggle slightly because something just crossed my mind.
“Someone is enjoying being a dad.” Belle says, showing me a photograph of Adrian and Arieya.
“I was worried he wouldn't be ready for a kid but he stepped up real fast and watching him with her is the most attractive shit I've ever laid my eyes on. Never in a million years would I have thought I would be attracted to a man playing with his kid.”
“Well shitty as Adrian may be I'm happy he's finally grown up.”
“Me too.” I affirm.
“So what are we going to do?” Mirabelle drags her fingers away feeling the pressure her touch caused my clit. I'm prolly too sensitive of recent, the urge to fuck drives me nuts.
“I don't know.” I blurt.
“You know I would never steer you wrong.”
“I know.” I smile.
"Tell me this, do you love him?”
“Who?”
“Don't fucking play dumb Cami this is serious.”
I give up.
“I don't know. Sometimes I hate him and sometimes I love him. My feelings towards Adrian are mixed, you know that.”
“Just say yes or no, it's a simple question, don't go around it.”
“Yes.” I confess and she smiles.
“How do you feel around him?”
She knows exactly how I feel.
“Suffocated.” I breathe. “Mainly because he chokes me when we're alone.” I add followed by a giggle and Belle pinches my leg.
“Come on be serious.”
“Fine Belle my knees become jelly I tremble and when I'm holding Arieya I get scared I might drop her because he makes me nervous and I try to show him he has no effect on me.”
“Why?”
“Because I'm petty I've always been this way even before I met you I'd argue amongst my personalities.” I retorted.
“Don't drift too far, I'm asking you about your mate.” Belle speaks sternly.
“I blame the mate bond if not I'd have ended up with someone else.” I meet more handsome and better men but I always end up back to him. Curse him.
“No fuck the Mate bond you have something better with him I have never seen you happier than when you're with him even through your arguments I've seen love Camila real love I saw it in the movies read it in novels. Till you came into my brother's life then I watched it grow blossom and wither away but it's time to water it don't you think?”
“Yes.” I say in a low whisper.
“Yes?” she pressed on.
“You're right love isn't easy and maybe I gave up on him too soon Adrian isn't just my mate he isn't just Arieya's dad he is the love of my life second to Arieya & KK but still he is the reason I'm alive my hate and my love for him are what kept me going.
I love Adrian with everything I have and I once gave it to him nevertheless he broke me even more than I was even then I loved him with all I had whatever I do in life I'll always be brought to him.
It's destiny and I think it's time I accepted it we are meant for each other we are mates we are one soul split into two bodies and as scared as I am he might hurt me again I'm willing to risk it all for him I don't care sex three times a week isn't good enough for me.
I want to wake up to his stupid face and go to bed in his arms I want us to be like were once I want to be his Mia that he won't let anyone touch and if we are going to break again this time then so be it because you know why. I love him.”
“Yes, atta girl.” Mirabelle says clapping. I realize I made one hell of a speech.
“So what are you waiting for?”
“Nothing, I'll get my man back.” I promise.
“Before you change your mind, call him.” Belle insists, “Call my stupid brother.” She whines as I grab my phone and it shakes in my hands.
“Don't tell me that speech was for nothing.”
“I'll talk to him later.” I say smiling and she pinches me once again.
“You are one stupid Alpha but I love you.”
“I love you too Beta.” I smile at her.
Mirabelle yawned hungrily and rubbed her stomach. “I will be in the kitchen if you need me.”
“Okay bye.”
“See you later.” she says walking out. Adrian makes me weak. He brings out the old Camilla, the Camilla that I want to bury but he also brings out the Phoenix Alpha he brings out love. I get my phone and turn it on.
The phone was in flight mode so when I turned it on I received texts from Santiago several asking me where I was and how Adrian couldn't reach me.
I unblock Adrian and check Santiago's WhatsApp status. He added a video of Arieya. She was her usual self scolding Adrian as if she were his mother while Adrian listened trying not to laugh. Indeed Arieya is an old soul. I call Adrian and he picks up on the fourth ring.
“Camilla?”
I take a deep breath. What this man does to me can't be explained. “Hey.”
“I've been trying to call you.”
“My phone was off and I blacklisted you.” My hands tighten on the phone with my confession.
“Wow.” He puffs air.
“I needed some time to think and I did.” I say aptly.
“That's great, are you calling because you're worried about the kids?”
“No I'm sure the girls are fine aren't they?” I flip the question.
“Yes they're okay.” He answers.
I could picture him nodding in affirmation.
“I was calling because I want to talk to you.”
“Missing my dick are you?”
I laugh.
“You're so full of yourself you know that.”
“I've been told.”
“I'll be coming back soon and I want us to talk." I put things straight.
“That's great because I want us to talk too.” He sounds excited.
“Well you can talk when I get back I know just the place.”
