Forbidden Bonds

Chapter 3

Skye

The next day when Skye wakes up, she finds that Alpha Sebastian is in her room, alongside Dr. Graylen. "Alpha?" she whispers, sounding confused, "what are you doing here?"

"I'm here for you," he answers bluntly.

"What do you mean?"

"You're my mate."

"What? That's not...what do you mean?"

"Do you not know what mate means?"

"N...no, I m...mean I do."

"Good, since you're well enough to leave the hospital, you're coming with me."

"What about Gray and Theo?"

"They'll be staying with me too."

"O...okay, I'm ready."

"Is that all you have?" he asks, pointing at her bag.

"Yes."

"Alright, come on."

He begins to walk out of the room and towards the exit of the building. Skye does her best to keep up with him. Once they're outside, she gets into his car. "Gray and Theo?" she asks softly.

"They're at the house already," he answers.

"O...okay." The rest of the drive is silent.

Once they're at his house, Skye quietly gets out of the car and follows him into her new home. "It's so..." she whispers, "it's so big."

"Please show Skye to her room," Sebastian tells his housekeeper.

"Of course, sir," she answers. She turns to Skye. "Follow me." Skye nods and begins to follow the housekeeper upstairs. "Here, we are, this is your room."

"Oh," Skye whispers, "er thank you." The housekeeper leaves and Skye cautiously walks up to her bed. She lays down on it and sighs. "It's so soft," she thinks. It doesn't take long for her to drift off to sleep.

Sebastian

Sebastian sits down in his office at his house and sighs. "Was this the right call?" he asks himself, "What if Angela is wrong about my mate? It's unlikely, I suppose. Angela is good at guessing people's characters."

A little while later his housekeeper tells him that dinner is ready. "Okay," he says, "I'll go and get Skye."

He leaves his office and walks up to Skye's bedroom. He knocks on the door. "Skye?" he calls out softly, "It's dinnertime, are you hungry?" There's no answer. He peeks into the room and sees that Skye is fast asleep on her bed.

He enters the bedroom and gently shakes her awake. "W..what?" Skye mumbles softly as she wakes up.

"It's dinnertime. Are you hungry?"

"O...okay."

She sits up and slowly makes her way out of her room. Sebastian follows quietly behind, watching her as she limps to the dining room. "Mama!" the twins blurt out upon seeing their mother.

"Hello," Skye answers softly, "are you hungry?"

"Yeah!"

She laughs softly before sitting down at the table. Sebastian sits down across from her. The housekeeper quickly serves them the meal that she had made and leaves the room afterwards.

Gray and Theo begin to eat enthusiastically. Skye quietly picks at her food, seemingly uninterested in it. "Are you not hungry?" Sebastian asks her.

Skye blushes and doesn't respond right away. "W...what is it?" she eventually asks.
