Mr Alpha, I Am Not Your Typical Lady!-Chapter 128) Haunting memories from the past.
Chapter 128: Chapter 128) Haunting memories from the past.
7pm.
I had been watching my mate through the space in the ceiling for a long time. I haven’t gone to meet her because the instant I located the room she was in, I saw that she was quite busy.
Nolan had been pestering me ever since to meet her, but I knew well that she was busy.
There was a large dead hybrid creature beside her.
At first, I thought that she was weird for having such a menacing creature stay next to her. That was until I realized that she was using its blood and some other parts of its body to create a cure for the humans’ president’s daughter.
What was even more shocking was the fact that she had not been able to sense my presence since I got close to her.
I know that I have currently concealed my scent. But, previously, she was able to sense my presence even after I had concealed my scent. Except for the last time I appeared in front of her and didn’t conceal my scent.
But why wasn’t it working today?
Was it because she was busy? Or, was it something else? Or...
I stopped being distracted and focused on my mate.
A bright smile appeared on her lips as she stared at the vial in her hand.
There was liquid inside the vial, and its color was blue. Not minding the liquid inside the vial anymore, my gaze never left my mate’s side.
Her smile made my heart flutter and I had to place my hand on my chest. She was so beautiful.
It was as if I was enchanted by her.
"I did it! I was finally able to create a cure after so many failures. I just hope it truly works". She exclaimed, before the smile on her face vanished and was replaced by a gaze that was fierce and serious.
Her fierce gaze caught me off guard. I wouldn’t lie.
"You can come out now. You have been hiding there for quite a long time. Aren’t you tired and uncomfortable already?". She asked.
My eyes widened. ’Is she referring to me?’. I wondered and had to believe that she was referring to me because there was no one else inside the research room other than me, she and the dead hybrid creature. And she couldn’t possibly be talking to the dead hybrid creature.
I had to come out of the ceiling through the ceiling’s access panel.
After jumping down from the ceiling, I dusted my clothes. My back was facing her. So when I finished dusting my clothes, I turned to her and asked, "For how long did you know I was in the room with you?".
"From the very second you arrived". She casually replied to me, causing me to become dumbstruck.
So, all this while she knew that I was on the ceiling but did nothing about it and made me remain on the ceiling for hours?
How cruel. How could she do this to her own mate?
I felt like scolding her and complaining, but I had to restrain myself. Because why the heck would I scold my mate?
Looking on the bright side, she didn’t look scared of me this time.
"Why have you been showing yourself to me? Especially your face? I thought no one had ever seen your face before? Is it alright for you to show your face to me? Do you plan to silence me later on?".
"I would never do that to you!". I panicked and got close to her.
But her left palm faced me, indicating that I shouldn’t get closer to her.
I did as she said and didn’t get any closer to her than I already did.
In front of her was a table which stood in between us.
"Do you want to fight me? Is that why you have been appearing to me lately?". My mate asked me, making me wonder, how could she think of something like that?
Wait. Is it because she thought I wanted to fight her, that she feared me before?
I was about to explain myself to her when her cell phone rang.
She glared at me and was cautiously staring at me as she dipped her hand into her pocket and took out her cell phone. free𝑤ebnovel.com
"Who is this? Speak". She said to the person.
Her voice was composed, and, at the same time, strict and sweet. I mean, who would not fall for such a beautiful person?
"What?!". She exclaimed, making me become alarmed. "You are saying that it wasn’t the same demon? So you mean that there are other demons too, other than the one I fought with?".
The word ’demon’ brought back so many memories from the past.
The memories were vivid in my head as if they were currently happening again.
"Stay hidden here and don’t come out, Nikolai". My father’s rough voice softly said to me.
He made me hide in my mother’s large wardrobe because it had a secret hideout in it.
"Dad, please what is going on? I am scared". This word rang in my head and I felt a sharp pain in my head, making me hold my head and fall to the ground. The voice was mine.
"Hey, what’s wrong with you?". I heard a voice asking me, but I couldn’t reply to the voice.

"The dark liquid crystal had already predicted this to me, Nikolai. There’s no other way. That thing would attack us and kill us all. But you must survive this. If you don’t survive, Lycans will cease to exist in this world. But don’t worry. Have you heard about the greatest desire that I have wished for from the dark liquid crystal? It’s about you. And that wish might be fulfilled tonight. One way or the other". He said to me, before he made me stay in the hideout and closed the wardrobe. I heard his hurried footsteps, making me know that he was running out of the room.
"Make sure to stay hidden, my son!". His voice echoed in the room after he left.
I was completely confused. I didn’t know or understand what was going on.
But I knew one thing for sure. My family was hiding something from me.
I remained in the wardrobe’s hideout for up to ten minutes, before I began to hear agonizing cries outside. I grew terrified. I didn’t know what was happening outside, but thinking about my family, I came out of the wardrobe’s hideout and ran outside the mansion.
