DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 23
Chapter 23
“Ugh, you know what? Forget you.”
Cole grabbed my arm and ripped the cap from my head then tossed it ten feet away.
“What the hell is wrong with you?”
“You are! I’m trying to talk to you.”
“Did you have to do that? My strawberry hair tumbled down my shoulders.
I glanced around, hoping no one noticed what was going on. I wanted to disappear. Some heads turned and caught the scene. I tugged on my arm, but Cole’s grip was tight.
“You’re not even sorry.
“Of course in
not. You should have seen this coming Cabbie. Girls without wolves don’t get
far in terms of finding a mate
That went straight to my chest until I realized he was wrong. I did have a mate. A man I shouldn’t have in reality. An Alpha whose pack hated omegas and if I understood things well this meant I was supposed to be Kade’s Luna
“Oh my gosh.” I ran my fingers through my hair subconsciously.
Cole chuckled, “Surprised at the truth?”
“Truth? Your pals aren’t going to be happy when they y find out you lied about winning the bet. You know we never had sex. I would never have sex with you”
“Lies, you were all over me Gabbie.”
I had to get away from here, but Cole wouldn’t let me go.
“It doesn’t have to be a lie, Gabbie. We can still do it. You don’t want to die a virgin do you
ld the
He pulled me close and pressed his palm on the small of my back. I couldn’t believe I thought this guy could be my mate. L lifted my knee and jammed it into his crotch. Cole cursed and beckled.
I scurried as far away from him as possible. I had a couple more words for him, but decided I needed to escape more. I saw the back of Alex’s head in front of the cafeteria talking to Gareth and I assumed another Alpha. No Kade in sight
I rushed to get to him before he entered the Alpha cafeteria.
“Alex.” I breathed out..
“That’s Alpha Alex.”
“Huh?”
“That’s what you’ll address me Omega.”
“Omega” I breathed out.
Alex shrugged. “Aren’t you an Omega?”
Gareth chuckled while the other guy walked into the cafeteria.
“Trouble with your omega? Has she been denying you quality bed time? I’d be pissed to.”
Chapter 23
“Fuck off Gareth.”
Gareth raised his hands and walked inside.
“I wanted to talk. Is that okay?” I rubbed my shoulders.
“It isn’t. The only time omegas get to address their Alphas is when they schedule a meeting.”
“Meeting?” I choked out “Alex-”
“Alpha, Gabbie get it right.” He blasted.
I stepped back. What had gotten into him? He didn’t sound like my best friend. His eyes didn’t feel the same.
“What’s wrong with you Alex? Is this about Cole-
He grabbed my arm and dragged me away from the cafeteria, but that didn’t stop eyes from following us. Especially two specific alpha females one with frightening white hair who I was hoping to avoid for the rest of my life.
“The problem is you need to know your place. From today onwards you’re going to respect me and yourself”
I yanked my arm free. “I do respect you. I always have. You’re acting like a real jerk right now. If this is about-
“Enough. I don’t give a damn who you fuck-
“No one!”
Alex looked around and noticed all the eyes on us. Alex and I never fought before not like this.
“Go Gabbie. If you want to survive the academy, you’ll keep your head down and know your place.”
I lifted my chin. “Bye Alex.
I walked away with a shattered heart. I lost my best friend. Alex was just like every other shifter at this damn academy. I lost him to the crowd. At least his mate was happy I wouldn’t be spending time with Alex anymore.
“Gabbie.”
I tightened my hold around my legs and buried my chin between my knees.
“Been avoiding me?” Kade asked.
“Why would I do that?” I murmured.
“It’s not like you’re hiding in a cave.”
I sighed, “I’m avoiding everyone else. How did you find me?”
“You can’t hide from your mate.”
My cheeks flamed at the thought of him calling me his mate. Gosh, no one would ever believe this. I wanted to tell my mom I found a mate even without a wolf. If only I hadn’t lost my phone. She hadn’t responded to my letter either, Kade settled next to me and pulled me to his chest. I didn’t know if he could how upset I was, but he was doing the right thing
“I saw you kick his ass.”
I burst into laughter. “He deserved it.”

Chapter 23
“That was a treat compared to what I do to him.”
“Kade, please don’t
I placed my hand on his chest. I could feel his beating heart. Maybe I was insane but the rhythm matched mine. Was that Crazy!
“Gabbie, that kid’s never going to mess with you again. Your name won’t ever come out of his mouth. Not anyone else because everyone’s going to know you’re mine.”
My almost tear stained eyes went wide and a small gasp escaped my lips. I scrambled out of Kade’s arms and got to my feet. Kade sighed and stood too. He stopped me from pacing and held me in place. No, I needed to pace maybe my head would start functioning.
“You can’t do that! Have you forgotten what Harlow did? She’s going to be embarrassed and she’s going to take it out on me.
“Harlow can’t fight a fated mate bond. No one can.
“She can still kill me!
Kade cupped my cheeks and pressed his lips against mine. The iss was slow. I tasted the mint in his breath and savoured the softest of his lips. I couldn’t fight him I wanted more. Our lips danced slowly and tenderly until we parted for breath.
“You’re not going to convince me that easily.”
“I know, you’re a stubborn little panda.”
“Oh shut up.”
He kissed me again with the same tender passion. A thousand sparks ran up my spine.
“I want to tell everyone you’re my mate. I want to say it in front of the Alpha squad I want to say it in front of Alex.”
“Alex?”
Kade ground his teeth together. “I’ve seen the way you look at him. I see the way he holds you the way he tries to touch you Gabbie-
“Stop” I held my hands up and blinked. “Alex hates me.
“Don’t give me that crap.”
“You didn’t see the way he brushed me off today. Besides 1 lifted a shoulder. “I may have looked at him like that before, but I don’t now.” I looked him in the eye when I uttered those words.
Kade let out a shaky breath and wrapped his arm around my shoulder.
“I’m not made for hiding. It’s only a matter of time until people figure out something’s going on?
“Please?”
He grumbled and I kissed his cheek. “Fine. Sooner or later I’m going to mark you. Gabbie.” He caged me against the wall.
There’s no turning back then.
