Alpha Ace and his Undercover Mate

Chapter 6

"Hey you okay?" I was shaken from my thoughts by my mate's question. I didn't even notice that I zoned out.

‘Oh yes I'm great. Just contemplating who to betray.’

"I'm fine," I replied instead, as we walked towards a huge gym. I suddenly got excited to hit those machines, wanting to relieve the stress and tension forming in my body.

"You like it?" Ace asked after seeing my facial expression. I simply nodded as we neared the entrance.

"Wait till you see the inside." He held my hand, leading me through the door. I noticed how good holding his hands made me feel. It made me wish that things could always be like this.

He wasn't joking about the inside. It was huge and lovely. The machines were modern and looked expensive. There were different types all over the huge room, and I could see that there were other parts to the gym. I instantly knew that I'd be spending a lot of time here.

I found a comfortable spot to stretch and warm up before I could actually get to the good stuff. Ace stood watching my every move, and as much as it was weird, I liked feeling his eyes on me.

"Aren't you gonna go work out or something?" I asked as I stood up.

"I'd rather stay here with you," he replied sweetly. I just gave him a small smile and made my way to a treadmill.

"Why are you so distant?" He asked as he followed me.

"What do you mean?" I knew exactly what he meant, yet I asked, simply because I didn't know how to reply.

"Since you got here, you haven't said anything to me. I gave you time to come around but it's killing me" He stopped the machine and turned me to face him. "What's wrong?" He whispered, holding my face in his hands.

"Nothing" I mumbled, trying to get out of his hold, but he wouldn't budge.

"I know something is up. I can tell you're affected by the mate bond as much as I am, but something is holding you back. What is it? We'll get through it together" His eyes held so much truth and promise, and all I wanted to do was give into him, but the consequences were too great.

"Nothing is up. I just want to focus on my mission" I told him truthfully. We were thinking about different missions but my statement wasn't a lie.

He remained quiet for a while, as if contemplating something. "Can’t you accept me and still complete your training?"

I cringed at his question and my heart sank. I was hoping he wouldn't have asked, because if I was being truthful, I didn't know the answer.

"I-I don't know" I stuttered, walking to the next machine as soon as the words left my mouth to prevent any more questioning.
