Chapter 18

Sandra's POV

Life has changed so much, even before I knew it. I don't even understand what's happening around me. I had a crush on the popular boy then he turned out as a big cheater using me to win a bet then I accidentally slept with a stranger who actually turned out to be a werewolf? What's really happening around me?

A snap of fingers broke my chain of thoughts. I turned around to see Alessia was smiling down at me.

"There you are, I was searching for you in the whole mansion and you are here?" She sat down across from me.

"You are spacing out. What happened?" She asked me again, observing my expression.

I shook my head "nothing"

She reached out to hold my hand "Sandra, You can share with me you know. You can share with me you know" she gave an assuring smile. "I won't judge you for anything"

I sighed and looked into her brown eyes "are you a werewolf too?"

Alessia was taken aback for a moment. Shock plastered on her face "you..know? My brother told you already?"

I nodded my head.

"Well, to give you the answer, yes," she replied.

"How can a wolf and human stay together?"

She smiled "they can't normally since both belong to different breeds. The human world is unaware about our existence. They regard us as a fantasy in those fiction novels but it's different when they are fated mates. At that time nothing matters"

"What's this mate thing?" I frowned at her.

"Mate is like uh.... soulmate. The pair which was made in heaven and destined to meet and live together. In your words it's a better half, whom you can love, charish and live with" she shrugged. "There are more, like a connection from heart to heart. It's a bond we werewolf feels strongly, even if we wanted to avoid it we couldn't. It was simply like impossible"

"But it's still different. I mean a human and a wolf? It sounds more like fantasy" I shook my head.

"It's no different Sandra. We werewolf finds our mates, we call it mate bonding. At a certain age we can sense our mate, their scent, their feelings, everything. Mate gives our wolves power, making it stronger. And for an Alpha like my brother, mate is a treasure of life. Maybe you can't understand things right now but you will. I believe you are smart so with time you will figure out everything" Alessia smiled. Her words are so assuring and soothing.

"Sounds like a strong connection, but I still don't know what to say. It's really hard when I think about all of these matters, it's so confusing and...." I bit my lips....not knowing how to continue at all.

"Sandra, can I ask you something?" She asked.

I nodded "sure"

"How do you feel about my brother?"

I was startled. How do I feel for him?

He is sexy, handsome and damn seductive. My mind screamed inside. I had to roll my eyes inwardly. Though I couldn't deny this fact, in reality he is not human, but a wolf, a beast?

Seriously? God, I don't know what I am thinking?

"I don't know. I don't like the fact he took me here forcefully and had forced me to accept the sexual connection. But I don't know why I feel safe when I am in his arm and I can't seem to say no to him even if we argue to death"

Alessia smiled "I am glad to hear that. Sandra, I know my brother is possessive about you. He wants to keep you for himself. But it's not wrong. Because for mates, werewolves have strong feelings, more stronger than human feelings. This feeling binds us and we can't help it. Sandra, even if you don't believe me but I want to say that Andriel loves you, he will cherish you, and will always protect you at any cost" she gave a light squeeze in my hand "please try to understand him a little, I can assure you, you will never regret meeting him"

I tried to fight whatever I felt for him but in the end I couldn't hold back. My body always responds to his touches and kisses and the way he says those dirty words while we make love it's something that makes me wetter than before. He knows how to worship my body, making me want it more and more. Is this just an attraction or I have something for him. He said I will never be able to get away from him. Life has put me here and I don't know where I can go. Since this is the case then just flow with nature and see where it takes me. I looked up and found Alessia still looking at me.

I smiled as I nodded my head. If what she says is true then I would also like to see if this true love does exist or not.

"Maybe you are right. I could take this chance to see how far I can go"

"Great" she grinned, "thanks so much Sandra, things are hard to explain but I know with time you will understand everything"

"I hope the same. My life has already changed so much. Since I have already been dragged here then giving another chance to myself is not wrong. I want to try this chance with him"

"Oh Sandra, I don't know how lucky my brother is to have you as his mate" Alessia smiled, her eyes almost blurred with tears.

"You are crying"

She chuckled, "It's a happy tear. My emotions hit at the right time. Now I remember mom, she was always quite emotional like this. I think I have taken after her when it comes to crying. Dad always tease her because of this"

I smiled, "you dad seemed to funny"

She nodded, "yeah but let me tell you he is serious on the surface. He would look like a stone face, but you don't have to take this in heart. Once you get along with him, he is funny"

"May be I will meet him one day"

"Oh mark my words you will meet him sooner than you expect. I guess once my parents knows about you, they will nag my brother to bring you in the main pack house" Alessia grinned "after all they have been waiting for Andriel's mate desperately"

I was about to say when I heard someone else also joined our conversation. "hello ladies"

I craned my head to see Aldric smiling at us. To be honest, Aldric is really handsome. The way he wore his smile, I guess many women would die for it. He doesn't even need to pursue any woman because they must throw themselves on him willingly.

"So what were you two talking about?"

"Do you have to butt in our conversation?" Alessia asked, frowning.

"You wounded my heart" Aldric shook his head "I was just wandering about your conversation"

"It's nothing special, we had our girly talk" Alessia rolled her eyes.

Aldric frowned "talking to you is useless" he turned to focus his gaze on me "you say Sandra, what do you think about werewolf? Do you find us handsome?"

"Handsome? The werewolves?" I raised an eyebrow.

He smirked "of course, or you like dogs more?"

I pursed my lips. Where the hell is this conversation going? Werewolves, dogs? Don't tell me he...

"Wait, what are you saying? What dog?" Alessia said, frowning.

Aldric turned to her "well, I don't really want to say but I can't help it. Your dear brother was titled as a huge dog by his own mate" after saying this, the bastard laughed out.

Alessia was right, this man really gets under nerves. He won't let a chance slip if he can help it. He knows how to handle things which could make people die in anger. I have really underestimated him.

"What?" Alessia couldn't understand as she looked at him in confusion.

Aldric smirked, "ask your friend...." He gave a throaty chuckle before leaving us. He disappeared like smoke after dropping the bomb silently.

"What was he saying? I can't understand him at all" Alessia said as she turned towards me.

I sighed and look at her "forget about him, his head is already muddled by his own sarcastic heart"


Alessia shook her head "let's go I am hungry. I want to enjoy some tasty snacks, are you in?"

I grinned "I am on it"

At least I can enjoy a small treat.
