Eva's POV.
I stared at both of them, bemused.
They were both staring at each other in strange ways and I knew that they probably mindlinked.
The manner in which Alpha Trent held my hand was so possessive and I liked it. I had been having this strange affection for him but I was fighting it.
He was an Alpha and I was nobody. Liam rejected me because I was a slave that couldn't meet up to his standards.
Alpha Trent was different but that couldn't change his status and to aggravate things, his father and sister abhorred me. Throughout the dinner, his father was staring at me with hate in his eyes and it even led to me choking.
He disliked me to the extent that he would dare taint the name of my father. Hearing those words from him broke me because I hardly recalled things about my father.
During my sadness, I wanted to see Alpha Trent but Beta Kyle came upstairs instead. I was sure that he sent him and it led to us hugging but I wanted Alpha Trent instead.
"I don't have to go anywhere" I muttered to avoid any clashes.
"You are going with me and that is final" Alpha Trent said with a little lividity in his voice.
I looked down to our hands and he was firmly clutching to mine. This gesture made my lips curve into a smile.
"Go back to your room, I want to have a word with Kyle" Alpha Trent uttered.
I was curious about what they were going to talk about but I still had to obey his orders.
I nodded and walked upstairs but Alpha Trent began talking even before he confirmed my departure.
With my extremely good hearing senses, I heard their conversation even when I arrived at the door.
"What are you playing at, Kyle?" Alpha Trent asked.
"Trent, there is nothing between the both of us. Why are you being so upset about this?" Kyle questioned, he sounded confused.
"Eva needs all the attention she can get especially when you are too busy and no one is here to talk or protect her," Kyle added.
"I am your Beta and friend, I am to protect you and those around you"
They were talking about me, but why?.
I frowned and walked into the room. I went to sit on the bed and waited for Alpha Trent.
I didn't really understand their conversation but I had an ill feeling about it. I stared at the shoes that the maids had got me and I was surprised that they got the perfect size.
I had healed at a fast rate too, it was my wolf's doing but weirdly she got more energized anytime I spent time with Alpha Trent.
After a few minutes, Alpha Trent walked into the room and I ceased from my thinking.
I took in a sharp breath and sauntered to his front.
"Eva, we need to talk," Alpha Trent muttered.
"Alright"
"Aren't you feeling anything?" He blurted out.
My eyes roamed around the room then back to him.
"Feeling what?" I chuckled awkwardly.
He suddenly grabbed my arms and his touch sent chills down my spine.
"I have an attraction to you not just you but my wolf as well. You are my mate!" Alpha Trent yelled. I watched how those gorgeous gray eyes of his darkened.
He was my mate. That was why my wolf was really getting attached to him. From the day he touched my lips, the feeling intensified.
If that was the feeling he had then it was mutual.
"I hate it when I see you having fun with any other male apart from me, it angers me even when it's Kyle" He confessed.
Everything made sense now.
"Beta Kyle and I have nothing but friendship" I clarified.
"He had only been spending time with me because of how sad I have been, there are no strings attached and you should know better "I explained and took my hands to his face.
Touching him gave me an electrifying feeling, it made my heart beat faster.
" I feel it too but I didn't think it… w…was possible " I stuttered.
"What do you mean?"
"I haven't had the time to tell you but Liam was my mate" I answered and his expression turned to one of shock.
"What!" Alpha Trent exclaimed.
"He was my mate but he rejected me because I was a slave" I uttered and used my fingers to caress his smooth and handsome face.
One reason which made me attracted to him was his handsome features and those eyes that I loved staring at. The color of his eyes had altered now.
"You mean Liam was your mate and he allowed you to be maltreated in that way" Alpha Trent gasped.
It was shocking when I found out but it was the best thing that happened to me. If he hadn't rejected me, I wouldn't have ended up with Alpha Trent.
"It was for the best, his father killed mine but about what your father said-"
"Father is just being biased and manipulative" Alpha Trent rolled his eyes.
I chuckled at his words.
"I have been dying these past few days, asking myself everyday if you had equal emotions towards me" He sighed.
Sadness filled my heart that he had been upset and thinking for so many days and I had been the cause.
"I am really sorry for making you feel that way, it wasn't my intention at all" I apologized and dropped my hands from his face but he grasped my hands and placed them back.
"I love them here" He said, making blush.
"You are mine, always know that" He said in an affectionate and possessive manner.
Those words made my wolf so happy, She wasn't the only one feeling exhilarated.
"I'm all yours" I smiled.
He instantly pulled me close and placed his lips on my neck but then his teeth suddenly grazed my skin.
A sharp moan
