Imperfectly Perfect

Chapter 5-The Monster

Alexandra's POV

Silence.

So much was going through my head right now.

My mate was the infamous Alpha. Xander Luca Martino.

The one they said would never get a mate. The one who could not be tamed. The one that haunted me in my sleep for years.

No, he will not be my mate.

What? Of course he will! He's our mate!

No Reyna you don't understand! This...this man! Actually no, he didn't even deserve that name. He was this vile creature who kills werewolves without showing any mercy! We could have been dead by now just because you wanted to see who he was if he wasn't our mate! Killed! Dead! Dead I tell you! So wake up! We're leaving.

No you are not! You can't leave our mate! The Moon Goddess chose him for us! We were meant to be! You can't just leave!

Guess what? I don't care Reyna. I'll be mateless for my life if that's what it takes to be away from this blood thirsty being!

She didn't say anything before silently saying, You don't mean that.

Well, actually I don't. I really didn't want to be mateless for the rest of my life. And this fine specimen standing before me was simply irresistible! Sure, I could whine and complain why did the Moon Goddess just had to choose him for me but the fact still remains: This eight pack machine was my mate and I was already melting under his gaze. I couldn't bring myself to leave him, talk less about rejecting him.

But no, this wasn't how so many years of waiting for my mate should be like. What did I ever do in life to get this obstacle? They say he would never have a mate as a punishment from the Moon Goddess for his sins. Or that even if he had one, his unfortunate mate would be so disgusted with his sinful doings she would immediately reject him. And unfortunately, I was that unlucky mate who had to make a choice.

"Babe? Babe what's wrong?" I suddenly felt Xander shaking me lightly, his eyes full of concern as he gazed down at me.

Gosh he was so handsome. So sexy. Just so perfect. It's suddenly hard to imagine all the things he went through and all the sins he had committed. Or at least what the books claims he has done. How could someone so loving do all those impossibly cruel things? But then again, this was Xander Martino we were talking about. The one who makes the impossible, possible.

I slowly stepped away from him as I miraculously managed to get out of his hard grip on me, causing him to growl loudly.

"Where are you going Babe?"

Jordan just looked back and forth between us as if he was watching a very exciting movie. I guess he must know the reason why I'm acting like this because he had this playful smirk plastered on his face which caused Xander to growl even louder.

Shit. He must have mind linked Xander to tell him why I was reacting like this.

"I'm...I'm... I want to go...go home," I stammered at my mate's anger.

Our mate's so hot when he gets angry.

This isn't the time for this Reyna!

"No! You're not going anywhere! You're home! Here with me!" He boomed.

I'm not going to argue with that.

Ok stop. You are not helping.

I am. We need to be with our mate! We need him, he needs us. Deal with it Alex.
