Worthless to Priceless The Alpha’s Rejected Mate novel Chapter 14

Chapter 14 

KADEN’S PO.V 

After my mate ran away from me, the first thing I did was go back to my house. For some reason, my wolf was acting like a b*tch in heat during puberty and was day dreaming of all the ways we could take our mate. 

I couldn’t get the image of her soft and luscious curves out of my head and as soon as I got into my house, I stripped off my clothes and went in to take a cold shower. It helped a little and I was able to get the boner down and get a grip on my emotions long enough to think about something other than f**king my mate. 

By the time I got out of the shower, I decided to look for something decent to wear. My wolf whined about wanting to make a decent first impression on her since we scared her off the first time and I ended up choosing a tailored black suit with a navy blue tie. I knew it was over the top but my wolf was overjoyed by my choice and I could feel his glee and desire.

“You need to calm down,” I warned him, “I don’t care if you’re in heat but you cannot be acting like a horny high school boy who is ing a girl for the first time.” 

“She isn’t any girl,” he tried to defend; “She is our mate.” 

“I don’t care,” I retorted, “The last thing we need is to be walking around with a boner when we are trying to talk to her. She will think I am a pervert so I need you to calm down.”

I could tell he wasn’t happy with me but he knew I right and he reluctantly retreated into a far corner of my mind. I was thankful for the silence and I started to gather my things to leave when I heard the front door open. 

Whoever it was didn’t even bother to be silent judging by the fact that I could hear it from my room which was upstairs and I instantly knew who it was. Only one person would bother to walk into my house at this time without consulting me beforehand and it is the one person I have been trying to avoid. 

The door to my room opened and my mother walked in with a frown on her face. Her hair was tied in a perfect chignon at the base of her n*eck and she was in a form fitted her n*eck was adorned with pearls. In her hand she held a black clutch and she looked me

didn’t you go for the date?”

“I had an important diplomatic meeting,” she raised a brow and I knew I would have to lie better than that, “There were some rogues that lingered at the pack borders. There have also been some issues about some land disputes. I couldn’t get out of the meeting.” 

She hummed and I knew she was about to complain or probably even set another date for me with Gianna as a chance to redeem myself but I wasn’t interested in it. I checked the watch on my wrist and cursed under my breath. 

“I have to be somewhere right now mother,” she opened her mouth to complain but I cut her off, “I will see you when I can. Please lock up the house when

I left her standing in the middle of my room and I knew that she would be upset about it but I couldn’t bring myself to care. I got into my car and drove off to the pack house when I got mind linked by Caleb and he told me that my mate had been found and was on her way to the pack office. 

I wanted to get there before her so I broke every speed limit known and I arrived at the pack office ten minutes earlier than I should have. I made my way to my study and did a last check up to make sure I looked presentable. I made sure my tie wasn’t crooked and popped in a mint to give off a good impression then I waited. 

It only took a few minutes but I heard a knock on the door and Clara appeared with my mate in her hand. Clara was barefooted and I could see her muddy footprints filling the hallway and I knew it would be torture for whoever was tasked with cleaning it up but my attention wasn’t on her, it was on the girl next to her. 

In my study, I could see her clearly. She was at least a whole foot shorter than me and she curly brown hair the color of melted chocolates and warm hazel eyes that shine a different color depending on the angle of the light hitting her face. She had a map of freckles all over her cheek and she had curves in all the right places. She was soft and demure, especially in the way her eyes took in the entire office carefully. 

I saw Clara cock her head to the side like a lost puppy as she looked over my outfit. I could almost see the wheels turning in her head and the questions in her eyes as she stared at my suit. I am almost never dressed up like this. If anything, this might be the second or third time she is ever seeing me in a suit and I knew she wanted to ask why but she settled for bowing instead. 

She turned on her heels to leave but I saw my mate tighten her hold on Clara’s hand. It was such a subtle movement that I would not have noticed it if not for the fact that I was steadily analyzing and staring at my mate.

I frowned at her little action and wondered whether she didn’t want to be alone with me. I haven’t done anything to scare her and I dressed up so I would look a little more approachable. I have also been clenching my fists to stop myself from acting out since the moment her scent filled my nostrils and the entire study. 

My wolf who had been quiet in my head began to whine and pace. He was agitated at not being able to touch his mate and her obvious refusal and not wanting to be in the same room with us had begun to set him on edge.
