Chapter 49: Stolen Mate
Chapter 49: Stolen Mate
Nick’s POV
I watched Aiden and he is terrifying and deadly to look at right now. We just arrived at the Ancestral
after taking care of Seth. Seth has almost died, and the pack doctor said that its thanks to what Z gave
him, he survived death. Ava is now by Seth’s side so I left with Zeke but was met by this sight of Aiden.
Zynia told us about Ashira being taken by Elon and the probability that she will be stolen from Aiden
from being his mate.
And from how I see Aiden right now, I don’t think its right to have a talk with him yet. I can feel that
another war wille but far from the childish war Alpha Elon started.
I don’t think Aiden will go easy on him now.
“Nick, to the office, now.”
I watched Aiden stood up from where he was seated and I nodded slowly when his back has faced me.
Damn, why am I having dyed response?
Oh, my tail’s tucked right now. Damn it.
There’s a dark aura which surrounds him and it feels like if I inhaled the same air he breathes, I will die.
‘His head must be messy right now.’ I thought as I followed to his office, gently closing the door when I
entered the room. I know I have this habit to piss him off, but my head unconsciously adjusts
depending to the situation. There’s no room for mistakes for now.
“Alpha Aiden.” I bowed slightly. He motioned for me to sit and I did. I must show I honor him though we
are friends. Alphas tend to be aggressive when something is messing with their heads or if they are
serious about something.
And Aiden is now both.
Aiden looked at me and his eyes are enough to deliver a message that he likes to kill. It’s turning red,
too reddish that it made a ck shade. It’s fucking scary.
“We will attack Ravenous tonight.” he proimed. “I don’t give a fuck if I need to wipe his pack off the
map, I need to have my mate back.”
I gulped. If we are to attack Ravenous pack, they will surely be wiped.
I nodded, looking elsewhere to avoid his eyes because he is looking at me and it scares the shit out of
me.
“Are you against it? No opinion that you think will bnce mydecision?”
I looked at him with widened eyes. Did he just ask that?
He hates the bnce but his responsible behavior always took him over. Thinking the safety and
what’s better for the pack and such first.
Though he never asked for it. He never need it though I keep reminding him.
But now.
His head sure is messy and he’s trying to not make a mistake. Anger can make a bad results, he must
have think he’s too angry to decide alone.
This is not my Alpha I was talking with, he’s still Aiden, in his right mind.
But in wrath.
“No, Aiden. Our pack won’t be jeopardize with the war because we’re ahead in number. We are not
under the peace treaty either, and Elon had started a war. Though this will be bloody but our shifters
will fight for their Luna. They will fight for you.”
He nodded and sighed. “I need every strong wolf to prepare in an hour. Let the pups in training to guard
the territory, together with the females. We can’t lose many.”
“I’ll arrange it. But its not possible to lose some, Aiden.”
“This is war. Few lives will be sacrificed and what I can do is to limit its number. Though I doubt their
pack could kill a lot of ours, I still can’t take the risk.”
I nodded. We’re ahead in numbers. And this is war, some will be wounded or die. But that’s how life of
a werewolf works.
A few knock on the door interrupted us. Aiden nodded at me which indicates that I’ll let in whoever it is.
Zynia starts ourside and Zeke was standing behind him when I opened the door.
“May we speak with Alpha Aiden?” Zynia said.
‘Let them in.’ Aiden permits inside my head so I widened the door and let them both enter the office.
“You may sit.” Aiden said.
Zynia sat on a chair but Zeke kept standing so I stood where I could see the three of them.
“I’m sorry to interrupt but I can tell that you’ll start a war with Ravenous pack. Am I right, Alpha Aiden?”
Zynia started.
Aiden knotted his forehead but nodded his head. “I will.” he said shortly.
“Well, I hope we could help. My son have some information that may be of use, Alpha Aiden.”
I looked at Zeke and he rolled his eyes, looking bored and irritated. I knew he hates how his mother still
respect packs and such after what she had been through.
Aiden looked at Zeke, too. Watching him, no, waiting for him to speak. His eyes conveys that he can’t
waste time to fool around with the rogue and I can tell that Zeke felt that because his jaw clenched, and
he stood straight.
“If you will start a war, go and ask for help with other packs because you are outnumbered.”
My jaw dropped from what he said. I thought he’ll add some helpful data but I think he is spouting
nonsense that I almostugh.
I thought Aiden will shut him off but he kept watching Zeke with a serious face. He was attentive,

listening, looking forward for what he will hear next.
Does he consider Zeke’s words?
As if the rogue understood that Aiden wanted to hear him out, he looked alive and engrossed.
“How many of yours will fight?”
Aiden looked at me before answering, “Five hundred experienced shifters.” he answered with a sigh as
he leaned on his chair.
Zeke folded his arms on his chest. “And how many do you think Elon has?”
"He have two-hundred wolves, only half of it are experienced.” I butt in.
“Well, your data was outdated.” Zeke slumped himself on a chair. “It’s been a long time since Elon
started recruiting rogues. Words spread that he was waiting for the right moment to attack your pack.”
My jaw dropped from what I heard. How did that-Is that even true?
Aiden doesn’t seem shock at all but I saw his knuckles whitened as his hand formed a fist.
One thing I knew about Aiden, he’s scarier once he kept quiet than snapping at us.
“That’s impossible. We have watchers around Ravenous pack, there was no report about that.” I said,
Aiden on the other hand closed his eyes and inhaled.
“Ravenous is thend nearest to the East region where the Valley of Rogues are, Beta. He didn’t take
the wolves to his pack, of course. He gave aid, food and everything the rogues asked just so they will
take his side when he decides to attack your pack. They stayed in the Valley, but they are with him. Not
just to return the favor but, well, you know us, rogues. We love the fight. They’ll join in for the fun.”
Oh, fucking hell.
“How many?” Aiden’s Alpha voice roared in the room though he spoke with a low voice. That gave me
a shiver.
“Five-hundred rogues from the Valley.” Zeke shrugged.
“Oh, we could still continue the fight, Aiden. Ours are experienced, best at fighting-”
“And three-hundred rogues from inside the North region. I think Elon also have the alliance of some
rogues from the South region though I don’t know how far he’d travelled.” Zeke cut me off and my jaw
almost dropped on the floor.
What the fucking hell!
That’s over a thousand wolves. More, even!
“How true are these information, Zeke?” I asked again because Aiden kept zoning out, thoughts are
probably running on his head, messing with it even more.
“I’m a rogue. We don’t need to hide secrets from each other, dog, we don’t have packs to uphold.”
I looked at Aiden but he kept immobile on his seat. “Aiden…” I started in a wary tone and he opened
his eyes before exhaling. Snapping out of his thoughts.
Oh fuck, I can only imagine what’s going on with his head.
“I need to speak with the Alphas. Nick, call Jacob, David and Aros.” he ordered to me. He was referring
to the three other wolf pack of the North under alliance with Prime pack.
Alpha Jacob of Shadow pack, Alpha David of Regal pack and Alpha Aros of Trivian pack.
I nodded but still spoke what I needed to say. “Aiden, it will took at least five days before their arrival.” I
reminded him.
‘Take a hold of his wolf for those days or else you’ll lose this battle.’ I said through our mind-link.
I need to remind him so he could.
“I fucking know, Nick.” he snarled. “Now arrange the conference, there’s no time to waste.”
Ashira’s POV
“Let go of me, you pig!”
I tried my best to resist the worst Alpha I’ve ever known who’s standing right in front of me.
I was fucking kidnapped by him! And luck was not on my side because he knew I’m a stealer! He’s a
fucking mate-less wolf!
“Such beauty.” he tried to caress my face. “I never thought I’ll feel this alive again.” he whispered as he
wiped the hairs off my face.
I was trembling, afraid, anxious. This is the first time I encountered a mate-less wolf who actually wants
me. Who’s actually in love with the thought of the mate bond! Titus didn’t, his love for his mate is
greater but this pig is surely thirsty for the bond!
I moved back even though the wall is already t on my back. I’m cornered without nowhere to go.
He made me drink the same potion Zeke had given me before. I felt weak and hopeless and my tears
had dried up from crying.
I called for Aiden countless times, asking for help, longing for him but I knew I won’t be heard. I waited
for an hour then two, waiting for the potion’s effect to leave my system but it didn’t happen. I don’t know
if the potion is still on my body or what.
I still can’t reach through Aiden’s portal and I don’t fucking know if I’m in a wolf-proof room which forbid
me tomunicate with him!
“I’ve been looking for your kind. A stealer. The gifts for someone like me, the bearer of my child. The
future of my pack.”
“I will not bear your child! I will never!” I whispered through gritted teeth.
Elon looked taken aback for a second, then heughed hard like he find my words amusing.
“Shhh. You are mine now, kitten. I’ll make sure you’ll have my pup inside you.” he held my face hard on
his grip that my jaw was hurting. Tears pooled on my eyes but I kept a straight face, my eyes narrowed
at him and if only my hands are not tied and I’m not weak, I’ll make sure to scratch that evil smile off his
face!
“Feisty. I like it. You aroused me even more.” he took his tongue and licked the tears rolling down my
cheeks.
My stomach churns and I almost puke as I tried and turn my head away from him. I did freed from his
grip and his smile grewrger.
“Aiden wille for me.” I snarled at him. I knew he will. He’lle for me.
Pleasee for me.
I thought Elon would be angered but his expression turned to somewhat yful shocked, forming his
mouth in an ‘O’ like I’ve said something impossible.
“Oh, darling, don’t you know? Your mate has underestimated me and he’ll die by my hands. I promise.”
heughed and turned his back on me.
I spat on the floor when I taste my blood from the insides of my cheeks, probably from his grip.
I watched him wave at me as he closes the door,ughing as he shut the door of the room.
