Killing My Alpha Mate
Chapter 26

HAILEY STEWARTS

It was a long drive to Dimitri's house, the rain pouring on the glass drumming hard on the car roof.

The wipers made squishy sounds as it cleared the glass. I was suddenly conscious about everything I felt so numb inside it was scary.

It was also scary; the fact I had been set free only to be bound by the scars and memories those walls caused.

Even if I'm able to forget the pain and t*****e I had gone through I'll never forget my mother dying in my hands.

The rage will come. It always did first the numb painful silence, the grieving stage,the recovery then the anger when it does they'll pay.

Now I was too weak to think about violence.

"Hailey" Dimitri called out to me,we had arrived at his house. I take his hand as he leads me under an umbrella into the house that was freezing and not just because of the weather, I felt cold within.

"Let's get you settled, you think you can manage. I have some urgent work I have to tend to" I nod and he signals a maid to take me in.

Stopping in my tracks I turn around slowly.

"Dimitri " My throat was itchy and my voice was hoarse, but he heard me perfectly.

"Yes Hailey"

"Thank you" I said genuinely, not waiting for a reply as I turned around to follow the maid.

"This is your room milady" she says in a smooth sweet voice.

She stops at a door, opening it slowly and standing back letting me walk through.

"Mr Dimitri has pre-order clothes for you but we must have calculated wrongly the jeans will hardly fit" she says sweetly turning pink.

I understand what she meant. There were three sets of clothes on the bed. The jean trouser looked small to fit my thighs and ass but the gowns looked decent enough.Visit Jo b n i b.com to read the complete chapters for free.

"No it's fine" I say simply. I'll just have to manage what I have.

"Okay ma you buzz if you want anything" she says point at a remote on the bedside table.

"I'll come as fast as I can, is there anything you need?"

"No thank you" with that said she goes out the door shutting it noiselessly.

Stripping of my old clothes that reminded me of nothing but bad times and suffering, I hurried to the shower I've begun to understand that taking a bath relaxes me.

Standing under the shower I let my tears flow letting it mix with the warm water as the weight of everything that happened overwhelms me.

"Hailey dear come out come out wherever you are" I tense behind the wall she was close, using my hand to close my mouth shut to hide my giggle.

"Ayy gotcha"

"Ahhh!" I scream scurrying up from my hiding spot, a bit startled.

"No fair mama" I whine with a pout.

"You're cheating"

"Why do you feel so?" she laughs gleefully, circling her hand around me.

"Because you keep replaceing me" I say, folding my hands.

"Maybe because your heart calls out to me" she teases, tapping me on my nose.

"That is a lie mama you're cheating"

"No you love mummy so much so your heart is beating so loud and because you love me so much I'll let you have ice cream for dinner" my face lots up at her promise. "Yes Mummy I love you so so much" I smile hugging her tightly.

"I'm sorry Hailey...

"Huh" I suck a breath running backwards.

"Mama" I shouted in horror, she was covered in bruises lying in the pool of her own blood. She was dead.

"Mother!!!!!!"

I jerk awake, my chest heaving heavily, my face covered in beads of sweat.

I must have fallen asleep when I was done bathing.

I wish it was only a nightmare but it wasn't, my mother was dead.

My tears start to flow as I lie up hopelessly, my heart feeling like a sharp shard has been struck through it. Melissa...east coast virginia.

The last words she uttered before she died.

With strength I never knew existed I get out the bed having a new purpose

I wipe my tears and try to keep my composure as I hit the buzzer.

Soon there's a knock on my door.

"Come in"

The maid walks in elegantly.

"You called milady," She says with a bow.

"Where's Dimitri?"

"He's currently in his room I can go call him if you wish"

"No no that's not necessary I'll go see him just lead me to his room"

"Okay ma"

I follow quietly behind her, letting the beautiful walls, artworks and lighting distract my turmoil feelings.

"We're here milady"

"Thank you"

I give two knocks on the double door.

"Come in" I hear from the inside.

I walked in looking into the room that was a lot bigger than the one I was staying in.

"Drop them on..." Dimitri starts to say but stops talking when he sees me.

"Oh Hailey I was ehmm about to come see you"

My eyes trails down to his chest and abs and I drink in his beauty with my eyes.

He was wearing a towel tied to his waist, and looked like he just had a bath. I could tell by his still wet hair my hand was itching to run through.

A sly smile plays on his lips as he looks at me in the gown I suddenly felt conscious of.

"Ehmmm I'm sorry" I stammer looking at the floor not knowing how to act in this situation.

"You look pretty in that dress" he says walking up to me.

The large room suddenly felt small.

"Thank.. thank you" I say looking up at him.

He was standing close,too close.

I could smell his cologne, which filled my senses. It was sweet from a flower I can't place, smelled both delicate and manly at the same time.

I look up to him and regret it immediately as I lock gazes with him I couldn't look away.

His gaze trailing from my eyes to my lips.

No I shouldn't do this. Jaden will... I stop myself mad I'll be thinking of him at a time like this.

We had said our goodbyes and I didn't want anything to do with him.

He showed me my place when he shoved his duck in my mouth.

Making the first move I kiss Dimitri.

And he returns it hungrily devouring my mouth with his lips kissing me from top to bottom before he places his tongue with mine making my body jolt in pleasure.
