"I thought you didn't want me, Kassandra," Clayden's powerful voice echoed through the room as he gazed down at the woman he had pressed against the bed.

"What's changed?" he demanded, his eyes blazing with intensity. "Why are you opening your legs for me now?"

Centuries have passed, and Clayden has spent a lifetime waiting for his first love. But just when he was on the brink of giving up, he stumbled upon her in a car with another man. His blood boiled at the sight of his woman being held by someone else, and he vowed to do everything in his power to make her his.

After enduring years of loneliness, he wouldn't let her go without a fight. His inner wolf could not contain the lust and excitement it felt for her, and he wanted to claim her as his own as soon as she was within his reach.

Kassandra is his mate, bound to him forever. She couldn't run away from him, and he would do anything to keep her by his side.

Alpha Clayden's Human Mate

　　I sobbed louder. "I am very sorry for being away, Dad," I told him under my breath.


　　Yet Dad didn't say a word. Instead, he just kept on sliding his hand on my back.


　　"Hush, don't cry. It makes me so hard letting you go if you keep doing this."


　　I cried louder. "Why would you even let me go? I am not going away anymore!" I bawled loudly once more.


　　Dad chuckled, but I became louder.


　　It feels nice to finally release all the fear, hate, and despair in one. It feels a little different.


　　It's like, after a month of uncertainty, I feel at home.


　　I stayed inside my room in Dad's house the whole day. Yesterday was very exhausting for me. From the escape proper to the sudden fighting of the twins until the ride back to this place—everything was so fucked up to me.


　　Last night, I got to sleep late, anxious that Clayden may be around the room again like he usually does. Things were so hectic inside my mind last night that I almost forgot how to sleep.
