Cold Hearted Mate
Chapter 21

After two days, at the office of the Alpha King.

Dolf is surprised that Alpha King is awake early and looking out of his mind. Talking to himself as if he is rehearsing something.

"If you want to approach the future Luna then I think you need to head to the garden. I saw her on her way to the garden." Dolf tries to advise Alpha Connor.

Alpha Connor tries to get back to his paper works and pretends to occupy himself with reading while Dolf approaches. Then, Dolf tried to flip the paper upside down which Alpha Connor was pretending to read.

"One thing for sure you have not learned to read upside down and you will not achieve anything holding your paper upside down." Dolf chuckled.

"What should I do Dolf? I do not know how to start a conversation with my mate without making her mad or pushing any of her buttons."

The Clell, the wolf of Alpha, suddenly boasts about his better appeal.

"Let me take over you and you will see how our mate will like us. I am way better than you in handling ladies, and that is a fact!" said Clell.

Alpha Connor pushes Clell deep down his mind to prevent it from distracting and frustrating him more.

"If I were you, go to the garden now and observe her first and wait for her to acknowledge your presence. Do not start with an opinion about her nor tell her things which she should not do because definitely you will not like how she responds to you." "How should I start then?" Alpha Connor frustration becomes more apparent.

"After observing her and when she acknowledges your presence, start asking how she feels. Show your concern by asking if she is settling in properly in the mansion. Then, you inform her about your plans to travel to the Royal Palace and how long you will be gone. Eventually, she will open up and start asking you things. By that, you answer all her concerns and end your conversation by hoping she would look after herself and you will bring something for her once you get back."

Alpha Connor contemplates on the advice of his Beta.

Finally, he took the courage to stand and made his way to his mate.

The moment Alpha Connor left the main office, Dolf immediately mind-linked the other Executive Officer that their ruthless Alpha Connor is on his way to the garden in an attempt to interact with Louve, the Alpha King's mate, after few excruciating days of longing to spend time with Louve.

Now, their Alpha has finally had the guts to approach Louve in a more subtle approach.

Every Executive Officer excitedly made their way to the hall near the garden to discreetly witness a once in a lifetime moment, their Alpha being subtle and some hoping to see their Alpha embarrass himself.

Lady Alina saw the Alpha King intending to make his way to the garden which she immediately understood what Alpha Connor intended to do. She instructed all the staff members to go to town and buy plenty of vegetables and a variety of fruits. "All of us, Lady Alina?" One of the staff confusedly asked.

"Should I repeat myself? Hurry! What are you all waiting for?" Alina stresses out her authority.

Everyone went out hastily.

What the other staff members do not know, there was something unusual about to take place in the garden.

Every Executive Officer, including Lady Alina, is standing discreetly behind the windows in view of their Alpha King and Louve in the garden.

Alpha Connor internally recites to himself.

'Observe first, observe first. Wait for her to acknowledge your presence. Do not mess up!'

In the garden, Louve silently commanded the plants in front of her through her mind. She moved her hands in motion trying to guide the plants' movement as it grew.

While Louve released more magic, trying to control more plants, she heard a step from behind trying to approach her.

"Binding vines!" Louve chants while gracefully moving her hands in giving emphasis on her command towards the vines appearing from the ground wrapping around the Alpha Connor's body.

"Woah! It is just me." Alpha Connor informs his mate.

The vines started to release its grip around Alpha Connor with the command of Louve.

"Next time, do not sneak up behind me." Louve gets back to the plants and pretentiously waters it.

"I thought you felt my presence. I didn't mean to spook you." Calmly explained by Alpha Connor.

The spectators hiding behind the walls attentively watching the two converse with so much anticipation and amusement as if a romantic scene is about to unfold.

"Why did Alpha Connor decide to visit such a staff member like me? People may misunderstand your visit. To honor your noble presence to such a humble servant like me is something unusual, you know?" Louve trying to be sarcastic towards Alpha Connor. "Do not worry, I always show my care and concern towards my staff members."

"Why do I feel that it is hard to believe so?"

"Well, I am just being honest. By the way, how are you settling in the mansion? Did Lady Alina show you around the town?" Genuinely asked by Alpha Connor. Showing his concern towards his mate.

Louve decided to be calm and less antagonizing since she can see the sincerity in Alpha Connor's eyes and from the tone of his voice.

"Do not worry, everyone was kind and welcoming around me. Lady Alina showed me around the town as well when we bought groceries and stuff for the kitchen. Thank you, for asking." Louve tries her best to contain Harou, who is jumping around her mind. The spectators discreetly contain their giggles and glee from the sparks between the two and the unusual behavior that their Alpha Connor is exhibiting right before their eyes.

It is their first time to witness their Alpha Connor to act in such an awkward and shy manner. He is known to be abrasive, arrogant, demanding, and temperamental and a very impatient individual around his staff members and the Executive Officers. Alpha Connor lightens up more as he looks at Louve. Her presence makes him and Clell happy. The certain joy and spark that they feel when Louve is around making them intoxicated with happiness.

The words from Alpha Connor seemed to be non-existent while he kept appreciating, in his mind, every nook and corner of Louve's aesthetics.

After a few moments of awkward silence from the tow who just keep avoiding each other's stare. Alpha Connor finally took the courage to break the awkward silence between them.

"I will be leaving tomorrow for an important matter in the Royal Palace. I have been requested to appear in the Royal Court and attend the parliament since there are urgent matters that need to be dealt with. So, I have assigned Arnold to take over while I am not around. I will not be gone for too long."

Louve could sense her spirit wolf disappointment and eagerness to tag along with their mate. Though, she is clouded with curiosity regarding the Royal Family.

"So, the entire Royal Family will be there? Since you are being requested to go to the Royal Palace."

"Yes, everyone will be there. Including my eldest brother who I am dreading to see." He sarcastically shares to Louve.

"Looks like you are not fond of him. Are you not close with him?"

"Let us just say, he has not been fond of me ever since we were little. We have different mothers. His mother is the mate of the Alpha King while his first love is my mother."

Louve seemed confused. "How is that even possible? You mean your older brother was conceived while the Alpha King was married to the late Queen Katherine?"

Alpha Connor chuckled in the confusion of his mate. "It is a long story which deserves another time. I promise to tell you about it once I get back."

"Okay then, you really got a strange family history."

"Speaking of family history, you have not shared with me about your power. You mentioned about your foster mother. Why have you not disclosed to us what happened? How did you get such a magical power and how did you get involved in the other rogue and vampires?" To access the complete chapters for free, visit Job nib. com. She cannot disclose her past regarding her former pack and about her late foster mother. She will never tell him about her magic power and the vampires.

"I prefer not to discuss it. Can we? I prefer not to dwell in the past."

Alpha Connor could sense that Louve is hiding something and it could be an unpleasant one that deserves to be rectified.

"Tell me!" Alpha Connor failed to contain his temper and demanded for answers.

"No, I will not!" Louve firmly replied.

In an instant, Alpha Connor grabs Louve's wrist and they run towards the woods. He pushed Louve in the big tree and tried to force the answer out of her while raising his voice. "Yes. You will!"

Louve pulled her hand away from the grasp of the Alpha Connor and reminded him about one of her conditions in staying which is not to force her to do things that she does not approve of.

"Do not dictate me! When I say NO, then it means NO!" Louve emphasized to her mate what she meant.

"Why do you need to be so stubborn?" Alpha Connor furiously informs Louve while looking at her eyes.

"If you want me to stay around then learn how to follow my conditions!" Louve replied.

Alpha Connor smiled at her while looking into her eyes.

"Really?"

"Yes! You -"

She couldn't continue her sentence because Alpha Connor kissed her passionately wild while leaning in the big tree. She is struggling but he held her both hands.

After a while, she also answers his kisses. He grabbed her b****t and he pinched her nipples lightly and her breath hitched in excitement.

"Was this really happening??" She thought while looking up and seeing the leaves of the big trees.

His long fingers inside her hole and his other hand unbuttoning her blouse while licking her nipples, a loud moan escaped her. Sooner, something big rubbed her pussy lips and she knew what it was immediately...
