The Alpha’s Substitute Mate

Chapter 18- Unfaithful mate



Isabella

I felt eyes on me and a cold sweat formed at the back of my neck and I looked up and saw Malcolm staring at me. His eyes were mesmerizing and there was something about his gaze that made me uncomfortable. He seemed to be observing me intently. His amber-brown eyes have flecks of golden rays that look like a rainbow sign. And his brows slashed down on them.

His face when he was all smiles looked quite handsome but now that his face was brooding he looked quite intimidating and a bit dangerous. I watched him like a curious bird but I could not read his expression or understand what he was thinking about, staring at me like that.

After a few minutes, his gaze slid from me, over to Arden and he grinnedOriginal from NôvelDrama.Org.

” Bro, when are you going to introduce your wife, our Luna, to me?” He said while slouching on his chair, his robes swishing. His elbow was held up on the armrest and his chin resting on it.

Arden who was chatting with his beta and have been ignoring and acting like I didn’t exist suddenly turn to look at me

” There is nothing about her that’s worth talking about, I don’t want anything to spoil my mood.” He hissed with so much hatred that I winced at the intensity.

Malcolm turned and smiled at me but I was too shy or should I say confused to know what to do. I just stared at him not knowing how to react.

I glanced back at Arden and noticed he was staring at me and scowling furiously. Actually, he was boring an angry glare at me and it made me freeze on my spot.

I hated my fate, and just prayed and hoped a day would come when I would be an absolute expert in ignoring and feeling indifferent about him. When I could be just as cold, unfeeling, and unaffected towards him. I swore he would regret the way he treated me.

My mind kept wandering back to what he had done to me on our wedding night, and I couldn’t stop the pain that clenched my abdomen every time I thought about it.

I wish I could just leave the table and hide in the comfort of my chamber. I did rather wallow in boredom than sit beside my ruthless husband and choke down on food like everything was absolutely normal.

The table was boring with no one to talk to, Lance was sitting beside his mum at the far end of the table and Violet was in the kitchen doing the dishes or maybe helping out. But I noticed that Malcolm’s gaze kept flitting back to me and I tried my best to avoid anything that would make me look into those piercing yet alluring eyes of his.

Still contemplating how I would leave the table before Arden’s parents, that would seem disrespectful and stayed calm hoping they would exit the table.

Just then they got up and excused themselves while we all bowed in respect, immediately they were out of sight. I excused myself and left the dining hall.

I got into the elevator and arrived at the last floor and walked down to my door. I got into my room and turned the lock and stripped down naked. I went to the closet and pulled out my pajamas. All I want at the moment is to soak my legs in a warm bath and good sleep.

I had just stepped inside the lavatory when I felt a sharp pain in my abdomen. I sniffed and gripped my stomach. But it disappeared in a flash and I thought it might be some random twitches. I turned on the water for my bath and started scrubbing my body and it hit me again, this time more painful and I also felt the pain in my chest too.

I was scared, what could be happening to me?

Could I possibly be having a panic attack from all the stress I went through in the past few days?

Or maybe my food was poisoned? But it’s next to impossible because everybody at the table got served from the same platter.

Again the pain stopped and I slid into the jacuzzi and tried my best not to think of the pain, I’m sure it’s something random probably from the stress of the past few days. I relaxed my back into the sauna bath when the pain started again. I couldn’t endure it anymore so I cried out and covered my hands in my stomach tightly. I’ve never felt this kind of pain in my entire life.

It felt like hot coals were being poured from my belly button all the way up to my heart and the pain kept rising higher like the angry sea of Poseidon. I really thought I would die from it and fear began to snake its ugly way through my veins and crawl along my skin, making sure I could feel every fiber of the dread and despair inside return with a brutal intensity.

I couldn’t stand upright, so I crawled out of the lavatory trying to mindlink for help but the pain was overwhelming me and I couldn’t focus. So I decided to use the phone and call for help, I started crawling miserably toward the bedroom and that’s when I understood what was happening.

My wolf sense heard it clearly, the noise coming from across the hall. The moans, the groaning, the ecstatic cries intermixed with those desperate pleas of pleasure

” Oh yes! Oh Alpha! Fuck me! Fuck me hard!!”

” Oh yeah! Deeper baby!!!”

It made me sick, and it felt like something was crushing my windpipe as blood started dripping out of my nose.

My mate, my husband was fucking another woman in his chamber. With the sound that filled the hallway, one could tell that the woman was really enjoying it a lot more than I had.

I tried to cover my ears from the cries of pleasure but it was of no use. My wolf sense could easily pick up the tiniest of sounds and talk more of one that is loud enough for the whole pack to hear. I held my phone and cried bitterly, there is no need to call Violet. Even the pack healer cannot help me and there is no cure or antidote for the pain of an unfaithful mate.
