Alpha Niall And His Lost Mate

He said yes.

Yes for crying out loud!

Gosh I never thought one word could've caused such turmoil within me. Normally the word 'yes' is associated with good news or requests, but right now it just made my stomach churn.

I knew it was probably unnecessary that I was upset about it, given that it was before we even knew we were mates. But the thought of it happening just made me sick.

And to make it all worse, that bitc- I mean girl felt like she had the right to be jealous. He's MY mate.

I felt anger build up in me even more by the second, and as much as I wanted to walk out and find somewhere else to go, I had an urge to know more. God knows why.

"What did you guys do?" I muttered through clenched teeth as I balled my fists tightly.

He looked utterly petrified at the situation, and I knew he wished he hadn't let that one slip.

"I promise you, I've never slept with her" He rushed out, and I visibly relaxed. "We did....other things, but I had enough respect for myself and my mate, and her and hers to keep it pure. I would've never wanted to take something from another man what is rightfully his"

"But you did anyway," I shot back. "You may not be her first in that way, but you were her first everything else. And she yours"

He sighed, looking down. "I know. But she had the biggest crush on me since we were kids, and I guess I kinda liked her too.... For a while" He added quickly. " When she shifted and realized that I wasn't her mate, she got all sad and I guess because we both were teenagers of different sexes, things tended to get out of control" He explained, and I scoffed with a dramatic eye roll.

"But I cut things off with her when I turned seventeen. It was just a messed up year. I'm really sorry Zoey. I don't know why I did it but I was young and curious. I knew I told you that I always suspected that you were my mate and hence I should've waited. But once I shifted for the first time and everything became heightened, it was hard not to give in. I really am sorry if this hurts you or makes you uncomfortable " He added, but it barely calmed me down.

I knew I had no right to resent him for his past actions. As long as we were unaware of our mateship, I couldn't hold him responsible for being 'adventurous'. But I was hurt, and I wouldn't hide it.

"Okay" I mumbled as I turned to leave. "I think I'll take a guest room for tonight if you don't mind"

For a while there was silence, but I didn't want to turn around.

Eventually he sighed, stepping ahead of me and showing me to the room across from his. Without a word or a look back, I entered the room and gently closed the door behind me.

I just got here and already I felt sad.

I knew this wouldn't be easy, and I knew we had to work things out, but I guess it would have to wait until I cooled down.

Just like my sister, I had a temper that could light a whole forest on fire. Don't let her sweet and calm demeanour fool you into being rude or disrespectful to her. She will end you.

And so would I.

That was the main reason why I requested to stay in a separate room for now. I knew that if I stayed and listened to him trying to explain or make it better, I would erupt and say things that will hurt us both in the end.

I knew it was weird, but I recovered from my moods alone where I can't hurt anybody or cause anymore trouble.

For now, I just needed to accept what is. But I had no idea how I was gonna be cool around Asia, knowing that she still obviously has feelings for my mate. Hell, I didn't even know how I was gonna get through dinner.

The tension alone will be enough to choke me to death.
