The Alpha’s Human Mate

“The eldest daughter of the moon crystal is the only one destined with white blood. That’s why Ellie also has blood in her. But how could a big pack like that suddenly ruin itself without even seeing any of its members again?” Alex said. He kept on thinking the whole night about how that was possible. He decided to call Callum when he was going to work that morning.

“I also don’t understand. Even the old man doesn’t know any of its members,” Callum replied over the phone.

Alex sighed before saying, “Let’s talk later. I’m going to the office.” Callum was surprised to hear him; he wanted to ask if he spent the night at home, but Alex had hung up before he could say a word.

The car drove for some minutes before it finally stopped in front of Alex’s office. Alex stepped out of the car, but he hadn’t taken two steps forward when his phone suddenly beeped. He checked it and saw a strange message. “Say your last prayer, Alpha.”

Everything happened so fast that it was too late for him to dodge. His wolf senses suddenly became activated, but the bullet from the loud sound of a gun from a tall building still hit his arm.

Ahh! The people around the entrance when it happened screamed with fear. As soon as the bullet hit him, some of his guards quickly ran towards the tall building, while others helped him into the car and drove off.

“Take. Work on these files.” Matilda said with a smile before dropping three documents on her table.

“But… I’m not done with the ones you gave me.” Ellie replied. She was already getting so pissed at the girl, but she was still calming herself down because she did not want to lose the job.

The girl’s face suddenly changed; she scoffed. “What does that mean? The work is too much for you to do?”

“No. Just drop them. I’ll do it.” Ellie replied. That’s how she does it. Always trying to make her look like a lazy person in front of other employees. She had even turned her into someone who gets lunch for everyone.

Matilda did not say anything; she just gave Ellie a smile before going back to her seat. Ellie sighed before opening the documents.

Ten minutes later, she was still working on the files when she suddenly heard Matilda scream. “What?! Alex Warren got shot today?!” She stood up to show one of her friends in the office. “How could he get shot? He’s in a critical condition.”

“Oh my goodness, Matilda. I think you should calm down. Don’t believe everything you see on the news.” Her friend said, knowing that Matilda had been crushing on the CEO of Warren Corporation for a long time.

Ellie stood up slowly and walked towards the girl. Who got shot? Which Alex got shot? She asked calmly. But her heart was beating so fast that it felt like it might jump out of her chest.

Matilda looked at her before answering. Alex Warren of Warren Cooperation You must have heard of him. The girl replied, but she was shocked when she saw a drop of tears run down Ellie’s eyes.

Ellie quickly cleaned her face and ran to the restroom. “He got shot? How did he get shot?” She did not know when tears started running out of her eyes. She took her phone and checked the news to see it for herself.

She couldn’t concentrate on her work, nor did she stop getting worried. Even Matilda and her friends kept wondering what was wrong with her. They thought she could never know that kind of man personally, and the reason why she was acting like that is something they don’t understand. “Do you think she also has a crush on him?”

“I think so. But can you even call that a crush? She’s crying for someone she doesn’t know.” Matilda’s friend replied with a whisper.

“So she’s obsessed,” Matilda said before looking towards Ellie’s side.

Ellie requested the rest of the day off when she couldn’t take it again. She didn’t even finish the work she was doing before, nor did she do the ones Matilda gave her. The only thing she could think of was going to the hospital to see him.

She knew that the only hospital he could be in was the one he always took her to when she was still at his house. But the only thing she did not think about was what to say when she got there.

She ran into the hospital and went to the nurse at the reception. “Good evening.”

“Good evening, ma’am. What can I help you with?”

“Um… I’m… Is Alex Warren in this hospital?” She knew she shouldn’t have asked that kind of question because of the way the nurse was looking at her, but she was so nervous that she didn’t think before talking.

“I’m here to visit him, please. She said.” The nurse must have thought she was one of the media that was looking for what to publish with the way she was looking at her.

“Are you one of his family members?” The nurse asked, but Ellie suddenly became quiet. “Am I one of his family members?” This was the question that she couldn’t answer.

“No. I’m not… But I know him personally. I just want to see him.”

“I’m sorry, ma’am. No one is allowed to see him except his family. You can call him or his family if you want to see him. The nurse said, hearing that she knew him personally. She thought Ellie was one of the media outlets that only wanted to publish news.

She didn’t even care about the nurses who were already staring at her weirdly. She took her phone and checked his number, but she couldn’t bring her hand to dial it. She looked back at the nurse. “I’m sorry, but is he okay?”

“I’m not allowed to tell you that, ma’am. The only thing you can do to enter is if one of his members follows you.”Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Ellie sighed before turning around. She wanted to call Maya, but she stopped herself. “What do you think you’re doing, Ellie? What would he even think of you if he sees you in the hospital? If he’s really in a critical condition, no one will be allowed to see him, even if it is his family. She said this to herself as she walked out of the hospital.
