My Alpha Mate

Chapter 20

The dark forest surrounded as I stood in the middle of the trees completely lost. The dark sky and cold air made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up and little bumps show up on my skin.

I have to admit, I was scared. I can't remember anything and I'm lost.
A small whimper escaped my mouth as a dirty scent invaded my nose.

The wind was blowing furiously yet it was deadly silent.

"Harper." a raspy deep voice said from behind me.

I jumped and turned around, the view in front of me cause a gasp to escape my mouth.

Bradley was standing in front of me. He got taller and a LOT more muscular. His eyes were red and puffy and you could tell he had been drinking. His eyes were all black. You couldn't see any white, it was as if you were staring into a dark hole.

His brown hair was messy and pointing into many directions. He had veins bulging out of her arms and chest.

He didn't had a shirt on and he was wearing jeans.

What happened to him? He use to be sweet and soft and kind. His smile would brighten up the darkest room. His muscles were big but not like this.

I don't remember him looking so anger and hurt and broken. I don't know what happened to him.

"Bradley." I whisper, my voice clearly filled with fear.

"I'm coming." he said shaking with anger.

"W-what?" I choked out.

"I'm coming for you." he said again.

I sat up quickly, trying to catch my breath. Sweat was on my forehead and arms and chest and all over my body. I breathed heavily trying to forget he dream I just had.

The moon shined light into my bedroom through the window. I looked over to the right where my clock was on my dresser. 3:52.

I sighed and laid back down; staring up at the white ceiling. That dream frightened me. He's coming for me.

I rolled off my bed and slipped on my slippers that were on the side of my bed. I grabbed my fuzzy robe and slipped it on and walking out the door.
I took a left and walked down the stairs that led to the kitchen.

I tip-toed down the stairs trying as much as possible, not to make any noise.

The kitchen was pretty big with an island right in the middle. I looked through the wooden cupboards for a cup until I found one.

I pushed my cup against the lever thingy that's on the refrigerator and water poured into my cup.

I noticed a calendar hanging on it by a magnet.

There was an "X" on Thursday which was three days from now. I squinted my eyes and leaned in to see the words that were below it.

"Mating games." I said quietly, reading what it said.

I gasped as cold water touched my hand and fell to the floor. That's when I noticed I was to in shock to notice that my cup overflowed.

"Shit." I mumbled as I set my cup on the island and grabbed a towel to soak up the water that was all over the floor.

Once it was all dry I set the towel on the kitchen counter and grabbed my cup and walked back up to bed.

I sat in bed and took a drink of water letting the cold liquid roll down my throat.

I set it on my dresser near my clock and laid back down.

I turn on my side and closed my eyes trying to think up a different dream.
