Kay's Royal Alpha Mate

Chapter 27

Song for this chapter: Jacob Lee - Demons

~Marcus' P.O.V.~

I stood up from my desk. I could feel Kay's feelings. It was like a child being caught with their hand in the cookie jar.

I walked into the hallway where Kay was standing.

"Why are you sneaking around?" I huffed.

"Why are you hiding things from me?" She said narrowing her eyes and crossing her arms.

No matter how inappropriate the timing was, her being mad was always a bit of a turn on for me.

I shook those thoughts out of my head before Kay could even search for them.

"It's not like that." I said running my hands through my hair.

"Bullshit Marcus!" She yelled. "You said no more secrets! Then you go and do this shit. I shouldn't have to sneak around to find out stuff! That's my sister and my friend in there."

"Kay, there's a lot you don't know. A lot you don't need to know right now." I said.

It was true. She needed to focus on gaining strength, and being ready for a war. I don't think she could handle all the fucked up shit going on right now. And to be honest.. I don't want her to know even if she could handle it. It's the kind of shit that fucks you up mentally. The only person keeping me sane is Kay.

"I hate how you think I'm this little, weak, she wolf who can't do shit by herself." She yelled, tears in her eyes.

I felt the hurt through the bond and I whined. I didn't want to hurt her. Damned if I did damned if I don't.

"But I'll be damned if I get pushed out of the situation. You lied." Her voice cracked making my throat swell up.

My wolf whining, both of us wanted to comfort her.

Fuck it.

I picked her up and headed towards our room. She kicked and told me to let her go but there was no way. If she wanted to know everything, then I'd tell her. For real this time. I won't have my mate cry because of me. It was a little too late but I'm stopping it right now.

There was no hiding this shit from her anyway, eventually she'd find out on her own.

I mind linked Mia and told her that her and Corey will stay the night here and I will talk to them tomorrow about all of this. My wolf added in a part that said if they leave, I'll hunt them down and kill them. I can't have my suspects run away just yet.

"Marcus let me go!" Kay yelled as I entered our room.

I sat her down on the bed. And turned to lock the door.

"I don't want to be around you right now." She sniffled and wiped her eyes.

I stood in front of the door whining at the tears that I caused her. She tried to push past me to open the door but I wasn't budging.

She gave up and looked at me, new tears forming in the corners of her eyes.

I sunk to my knees. She was now taller than me. I felt my eyes water. I reached out and gently put my arms around her waist. She tried to pull away but I could tell she liked it.

"I'm sorry." I said as my voice cracked and betrayed me.

"For what? Making me think I'm weak or for not telling me about everything like you said you would?" She snapped.

"For everything." I said. "I..."

"Marcus I already have trust issues now. Please don't make them worse." She said putting a hand in my hair.

I could tell she needed to be comforted. And honestly.. I needed it too.

"No more secrets Marcus." She said.

"This shit.. it's fucked up baby." I said letting tears fall. "This is so hard.."

I felt like a baby for crying but it was just me and Kay so I let it all out.

Making Kay cry had my emotions all fucked up. I didn't have my Alpha wall up to protect my emotions.

~Kay's P.O.V.~

My heart broke as the big strong Royal Alpha broke down into tears in front of me. He hurt me. Lying to me making me think he told me everything. The fact that he keeps thinking I'm not strong enough, makes me feel like I'm not a suitable mate.

"No. No. It's not that baby. You're perfect just the way you are it's just.." Marcus said, "I can't lose you. You're my rock that's keeping me in place. I'm just afraid to lose you is all.."

I ran my fingers through his black hair. I wasn't crying anymore. I could feel Marcus' tears soaking my lower half of my body.

"Hold me?" Me and my wolf whined.

I wanted to just hold each other and talk about everything. If he really meant it this time, then I'll listen. I'm still pissed that he hadn't told me everything already.

Getting into our bed we both got under the covers and faced each other.

"No more hiding things from me Marcus. For real this time. No more secrets or I'm.. going to lose my trust in you." I said wiping his face.

"I'm sorry Kay." He said and kissed my forehead.

I smiled a bit and looked at him waiting for all the secrets to be told to me. Marcus pulled me closer and into his chest.

"There's fucked up shit going on in the packs." He said putting his chin on the top of my head. "Shit that I know my dad would never have put up with."

"What is it?" I asked wrapping my arms around him.

I could feel his tense body relax into mine. He was battling himself on the inside and I seemed to help soothe it a bit.

"There's she wolves going missing in all the packs. Taken while they're on runs or when home alone. The youngest taken was a newly shift, she's 17. I think it's Alpha Nathan but accusing him of something like that would immediately start a war." He said. "These she wolves are being taken by someone in the pack who knows who is who and who's home alone. Rouges wouldn't know how many unmated high ranked she wolves we had."

"So you think My sister and Corey are behind this?" I asked.

"With you out of the picture since birth,  your biological parents' land would go to both Mia and her mate. But.. with you in the picture now Mia.. would be more willing to work against the kingdom to get a higher rank." He said.

That's bullshit. Mia wouldn't do that.
