His Mate and His Mistress 1 (W)

by Irtania Adrien

  Chapter 22- "Explanations, and Ambush" *Demitrey's pnt. of View* When the wedding ceremony finally came to a conclusion with the bride in tears for her missing best friend, I couldn't be more happier. Not because she was worried about her best friend because trust me, I was worried too, but because it means I get to go home sooner in order to start tracking down my number one enemy. I didn't even think to wait for Serena because since she found her way here on her own, she can find her way back home on her own. On my way there however, I sent a message to my beta Kade telling him to wait for me in my office because we had a prey to hunt. While on the road, I found myself reminiscing about my mate. I thought about how easy it was to tease her, how her heartbeat would change the second I got close to her. I remembered her soft seductive lips on mine, how they always had my heart running a thousand miles per hour. I thought about her eyes, and how they could take my breath away, and I also thought about the situation she found herself in now, all because of me. I admit, I shouldn't have marked her, but I just couldn't handle the idea of her with another man, especially when she seems relieved that she was finally leaving me. But then again, who could blame her, I have been nothing but an asshole, and no excuse I can make could ever change that, no reason I have could ever make up for my mistreating her, but once I've taken care of whoever is trying to get rid of her, I will explain the reasons for my action, I'll ask for her forgiveness, but I will not be selfish enough to ask her to be with me, she will be free to choose on her own will what she wants to do, and if she rejects me, I'll accept, because I've come to the realization that I don't deserve her. I reached the pack territory faster than I expected, and I didn't waste anytime as I dashed up to my office where I found Kade patiently waiting for me with two glasses of scotch. I smiled taking it from him as I shook my head, this is why Kade was my best friend and beta, because he knew me like the back of his hand, as I knew him. After sending my scotch back in one gulp, we got down to business. We sat down on one of the couches as I explained to him what was taking place and how it all started. I explained what took place on the trip, I told him about the letters, and how my mate ran away. By the time my explanation was over, all that Kade could muster was a "wow:, but then he seem to think about something then he said out of the blue " Okay, so I understand that you being a jerk was to keep up an image, but it still doesn't explain why you continued having sex with Serena, because I know for a fact, the moment I found out Cilia was my mate, I couldn't even think of another woman in that way. " "well," I began "I started to resent Serena, and I avoided touching her for a bit, but then she caught on, she started saying that it was because of Adelina that I stopped being attracted to her. At first I brushed her off, could care less what she thought, but then another letter arrived." At my words, I stood up to retrieve one of the many letters sent to me by this anonymous, from my desk. It read: Dear Alpha, I'm surprised, you're no longer attracted to your mistress? My, my, my, that's not a good sign. I wonder, does it have to do with a certain girl that arrived at your pack few days ago? Because if it does, you know what that means, I have you where I wanted you. Well, whatever your reasons, you just proven to me that the ruthless alpha has a weak link. Sincerely Yours, and with love and honor, your worst and biggest enemy. P.S. If you're wondering how I found out about your intimate relationship status, don't bother wasting your time tracking anyone down, I have well hidden eyes in your pack. "So that night, I found Serena going up the stairs, and I started making out with her, the same night we had to go get our mates from the club. Since then, I made excuses to avoid her without raising suspicion about the fact that I lost all interest in Serena, and only had eyes for my mate. But in total honesty, the last time I actually slept with Serena was the night before I met Adelina, and found out that she was my mate." I explained. "Wait, really? Because everyone still thought that you guys fooled around." admitted Kade. "Oh I know, a simple hug to Serena means that you're her fuck buddy, and since she can't keep her mouth shut, all I had to do was play my cards right. Cuddling, hugging, shunning other females over her, everything worked out as planned, especially when I received this letter." I said, then went to retrieve another letter that read: Dear Alpha, So maybe I was wrong, maybe you aren't falling for Adelina after all, no matter, I will still find your weak link if it is the last thing I do, and once I do, sweet victory will be mine. Sincerely yours, and with love and honor, your worst and biggest enemy. "Okay, I see, but one more thing, why didn't you try to fish out who the inside man was?" Kade asked. "Don't you mean woman?" I asked with a smirk. "Huh?" Said a confused Kade. I called him over to my desk, as I started to skim through more of the letters, ou backs to the door. Big. Mistake. "See at first I did want to go all S.W.A.T. team on this, but then I found a clue in one of the letters. See I know Serena, she happily brags about who she has been with, but one thing she would rather die than mention is when she has been rejected by someone, so the only way for this person to figure out that she and I were having problems was if she told him herself. But I have to admit, I wasn't fully convinced about the idea, until she showed up at the hotel room. I never told her where I was going, nor did I leave any clues." I explained. "You're right, you didn't leave any clues." Came a voice from the door, and before I could turn around and attack, I felt something pierce my neck as I fell to the floor disoriented, while a paralyzing pain shot throughout my entire body. Next to me, Kade landed in a thud, and soon my vision became blurry, but before darkness could really consume me, I saw a shadow of a figure, and before I could make out who it was, I was gone.

  Chapter 23- "Secret plan" - Part 1 *2 years later* *Unknown's pnt. Of view* My secret plan was finally complete. When we managed to paralyze Demitrey, who I refuse to call an alpha, it was just the beginning. With Demitrey being held in captivity, everything just fell into place, the pack warriors and Demitrey are all being held in the dungeons with chains bathed in wolfsbane, so their strength was minimized, and with their mates being held away from them, their weakness only multiplied. But the weakest of all Is Demitrey himself, so now, I run the pack, and that is all I've ever wanted. I mean, I never actually went in a duel with Demitrey, and yeah I cheated my way to the top with some help, but who cares, the top is where I belonged. The female members whether mated or unmated from Demitrey's pack where all placed in one place, however two different rooms. My guards and warriors consisted of rogues who were ruthless when it came to clearing out packs, we killed, and murdered. Everywhere we went we left a river of blood. I also changed the pack name to the blood red pack, instead of the red moon pack. That name suited us better. Anyway, ever since Demitrey’s mate ran away two years ago, she hasn't made contact with anyone, which is just fine by me, because well, as much as I wanted her here, to be my personal toy, it’s better that she was far away, because once destined to be a Luna, always a Luna. She would try her best to free her people, which would wreak havoc, and destroy my plan, so I just let her be, to the point where I don't even know where she is. My pack has yet to be disturbed by anything or anyone for that matter, and I wasn't going to let my years of hard work to go to waste, well at least I thought I wasn't. With no mate, I had nothing to focus on but my hunger for power, so much power, and I only wanted more. After getting rid of my mate, I didn't actually lust after anyone, but every now and then my warriors and I force some of the unmated she-wolves into pleasing us, in any way that we want. The mated she-wolves were way more deadly, we would never get away with touching them inappropriately. But as you can see, I now had complete reign over this pack, well over my rogues, the women and children. As far as the men go, they were all being held captive. Every once in a while, when I feel like it, I send someone there to feed them, and that is probably like once in a full moon, however, I do so make sure they are always being injected with serum, which gives them the strength to stay alive, but not the strength to fight. Plus, I send down pictures of their mates all bruised and battered, although it's photo shopped, just to add to their torture, yet they can't
even do anything about it. My victory was pure bliss, and I was loving every moment of it, until someone burst through my door telling me that my second in command has been attacked. I bolted to my feet and dashed to the clinic, where I found the sight on a gurney, bloodied with gashes on the neck that could've only been made by canine teeth, you could tell there was a lot of blood lost, and the consciousness wasn't fully there. I sent someone to fetch that old hag of a nurse, I think her name was Diane or Diana, whatever, and once she got there I ordered her to fix my second in command, and I threatened to kill her if she let my commander die. Once the old hag got to work, I held the guard who told me the news by the throat dragging him outside as I said "who is responsible for this?" He tried to pry my fingers off as, as he strained to breathe, but I wouldn't relent, instead my grip became tighter as I lifted him off the ground by the throat, and he seemed ready to pass out, but he finally managed to say "the alpha." And I saw red. He must have realized his mistake because he quickly stuttered out "I I m-meant Demitrey. H-h-he did it." In one motion I threw him away as though he weighed nothing. His body hit a near tree then crumpled to the ground. "Take him to the dungeons, he dares disrespect me. Make this an example to everyone who witnessed this, I AM THE ALPHA! And make no mistake, I will not be so nice the next time someone dares call another an alpha in my presence." After my announcement, and the disgrace was taken away, I made my way down to the dungeon, making sure I placed my mask firmly on my face, my identity has yet to be revealed to these people, and I wanted to keep it that way. Once I entered the underground, the smell of blood, sweat, vomit, along with other bodily discharges I wish to not mention and the heat hit me like a she-wolves' slap to the face, and those are strong. Anyway after taming my sudden urge to throw up and managing my suddenly upset stomach, I made my way straight to the last cell in the dungeon. The custom made cell made to hold the strongest of strongest wolves. Once I reached it, I cringed at the sight in front of me. There on his knees, sat Demitrey, his mouth and neck bloodied, his breaths coming out hard as though he just completed a marathon that he ran for days. "My, my, my, what a sight, the big bad alpha at my feet, this is just wonderful." I smirked."However, I am not sure I approve of your act of violence earlier." I tsked, as I sneered down at Demitrey."Go to hell." Was his simple, bored reply. Without thinking, my foot lashed out, landing a perfect blow to his head, his body swayed violently to the side, but the chains wouldn't relent, and just pulled him back to the center, while the wolfs bane in the cuffs dug under his skin. He grunted in pain, but he wouldn't scream. He never screamed. He never willed himself to do so. And I wanted him to scream. I wanted to hear his pain loud and clear. I wanted to see his defeat. Without thinking, I pulled out the baton I carried in my boot, and relentless started striking him. Each hit echoed through his bones, the bruises singing the proof of his torture, but the strained veins in his neck and forehead displayed his arrogance, his will to not give up. He wouldn't give up! And that only fueled my anger. I attacked and battered him until the chains were the only limbs holding him up, then, then I took a breather. I stood up straight, brushed off the wrinkles on my clothes, and then looked down at the bloodied alpha. I spit on him and smiled, then I walked out, feeling victorious, although he has yet to admit defeat, my hunger to humiliate and destroy him has been sedated, until next time of course. With a nod of my head to the guards, his cell was locked, but before I could really exit the dungeon, I heard a very dangerous and powerful growl erupt from deep within the dungeon, followed by many others, but the first one, it held the power of a true king, a true leader, but it also held a promise. And I hated myself for feeling a sudden cold snake of fear and nervousness slither down my spine. I shouldn't be afraid, the alpha has no way of escape, and as everyone knows... I AM THE ALPHA!

  Chapter 24- "Secret Plan" -Part 2 *Demitrey's pnt. Of view* I laid quietly still in my own pool of blood, as I gave my body time to recuperate. I didn't want to continuously use my excessive wolf healing because my wolf needed strength too for when the battle was to come along. I have no idea who that maniac is, and although I attacked the second in command to see if I could pry out some information, it was to no avail. One thing I do know for sure is that he is one angry individual. I tried to pick my brain to figure out which one of my enemies is coward enough to ambush me just to take over, but not one could add up to the criteria of the one that seems hell bent on torturing me, and the ruckus caused by the pack's mind link in my head wasn't making it any better. Everyone was constantly complaining, some even arguing amongst each other. See the mind link is our only mean of communication, and I could easily block each of them out, but that would risk us missing a clue about who we think calls himself "the alpha." Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic. I mean how arrogant can you get when you go flaunting yourself around, demanding that everyone calls you "the alpha"? I am an alpha, but I earned that name. I didn't just wake up one day and started demanding that you give me the title. I worked for it. Anyway, everyone was constantly complaining... "Oh my, we are going to die.""Where is the alpha?""Oh he abandoned us." "Maybe if he found his Luna, she would've given him the strength to fight." "Wait, I thought there was a rumor that that girl, what her name was again?""Adelina.""Yes! Her, there was a rumor that she was his mate.""Well where is she now?""I don't know." "Well the Alpha better man up, or give us a plan, I'm ready to take on these m***********s."At some point I became tired of them, but then that's when I got an idea, although I didn't like the way my plan was, I'd have to do it. I growled a menacing "Quiet" in the mind link, and it became as quiet as a cemetery. "Now, I've been patient with your bickering, but thanks to you, I've figured out our battle plan, however, first, we have to recruit a special someone. So for now, I'm going to go over my plan with my warriors, then give each group your part to play. Until any further announcements, please act as normal as you've been acting over the past two years, and try to keep quiet in the mind link." I declared. Then a United "yes Alpha" followed, and then the mind link once again became quiet. I opened my mind link to both Kade, and sadly James. "What's the plan Alpha?" Came Kade's voice. It was time to get down to business. I explained my plan to both James and Kade. Now because Kade is my beta and also best friend, he gets the easiest job. Meanwhile, James was my messenger, he was going after the one person that would give us the strength to fight. My Luna, Adelina. See, as much as I hate to admit it, James is the one that spent enough time with Adelina to know exactly where she could be, and I must say, I am very jealous of their relationship, and I was very irritated by that part of my plan, but it was time for our pack's redemption, and we were going to do it as one. Anyway, after explaining my plan to my two main players, it was time to lay low, and formulate a battle plan for the entire pack, because this time, the warriors weren't the only ones attacked, no, this time it became personal to each member of the pack, and we were all going to fight back. *Third person's pnt. Of view* As Demitrey started focusing on his plan, it was time for James to get the ball rolling. He thought over what the alpha told him. *Quick flashback to 5 minutes ago* The alpha tapped both Kade and James into a secret mind link as he went over his plans, first he said "guys, do you remember our training in the wolfs bane field?""Yes, sadly." Came Kade's voice, as James agreed silently. They hated that week of training, they spent days learning to overcome the wolfs bane effect, even if it was for a small minute, and now, the training was going to come in handy."Well, it's time to put that training to work." Declared the alpha. *End of Flashback* So, James took in the alpha's advice, and channeled his energy into doubling his skin, using his wolf as a backup, then, he wrapped his hands on each of the chains, where they connected to the ceiling, and yanked as hard as he could, and the chains broke free. Although his palms were burning from the wolfs bane that bathed the chains, the effect wasn't a paralyzing or painful as it used to be. Then he waited. The noise was to alert one of the guards, and just as they planned, seconds later, a guard came to check out what caused the noise. But he really should
n't have, because the moment he noticed James, he instantly found himself being strangled by the chains, and the wolfs bane dug under his skin, while James muffled his screams until, there was no life left to scream for. The guard’s body fell limp to the floor, as James searched him for the key. He freed his hands of the shackles, then passed the keys to Kade, who had his own plan to execute. Then, James took all of the rogue's clothes, and dressed himself up, once his makeover was complete, he saluted the Alpha, then made his way to the dungeon's entrance. Once he reached the other guard, he lured him to the dungeon's dark entrance and punched him dead in the face. The plan wasn't to knock the guard out, but it was to rouse suspicion, and eventually chaos. James landed punch after punch until he felt the guard close to losing consciousness, then James released him, and made a run for the woods. James was one of the fastest runners in the pack, and the alpha ordered him to run until he cross the pack's territory, because he knew the rogues wouldn't dare risk losing their lives by stepping out of the pack boundaries. It took a few minutes for the pounded guard to gain enough understanding to yell "we have an escaped wolf! We have an escaped wolf!" He got to his feet, and sounded the alarm. Minutes later, James heard the thunder of paws gaining on him, and he smiled as he allowed himself to transform, and his wolf took over. With a victorious howl, and a devious growl, James was gone. He pushed himself to reach his max speed, and although his limbs complained and struggled from not being used in a while, they quickly got up to the challenge, and soon James was zooming through the forest. It took a good hour before he reached the pack lines, and once he crossed it, he announced to the alpha that he succeeded, but he didn't stop running. He ran until he finally reached another civilization. There he managed to clean himself up, steal a few wallets, get some new clothes, blend in with the crowd, and make his way to the nearest airport, where he used his new platinum card to book a flight. James had a feeling he knew exactly where Adelina would be, and that was his destination.
