Defy The Alpha(s) novel Chapter 490

Chapter 490: Fighting The Matebond

Blessed was the wolf with a Matebond.

But the same couldn’t be said for Adele at the moment.

"Are you okay?" the front desk manager asked.

Adele was sweating profusely, looking like she might collapse at any second.

"I’m good," she snapped, irritation in her voice. "The keys?" She held out her hand stiffly.

"Fine. Room thirteen," the manager said, handing over the keycard. "Down the hall, last on the left."

Adele turned without another word. Right now, her hormones were so all over the place she could snap somebody’s head.

Big fat thanks to the mating fever.

She had never imagined coming to a place like this, but desperate times called for desperate measures.

After being released from the agency, she’d used a diffuser to mask her scent so Micah couldn’t track her. And then she came here.

A motel was the last place Micah would think she’d hide. After all, what was a wolf with a Matebond doing in a dump like this?

Yes, she was running from her mate.

Mate? That was hilarious. Was the moon goddess seriously fucking with her?

Of all the werewolves she could be mated to, it had to be him. Why? She didn’t want an incubus who had slept his way through the school. He just wasn’t her type. How could they possibly be a perfect match?

But she couldn’t reject him either. It was said that rejecting one’s mate was hell. Like tearing out your own soul and living with an ache that never vanished. No matter where you went, no matter what you did, you’d always yearn for that one person.

Adele might not like her choice of a mate, but she couldn’t reject him. Not yet. Not until he gave her a damn good reason to. For now, she had to ride out the mating fever and get her mind back before making any decisions.

One might ask, why run if she wasn’t going to reject him?

Because most mates marked each other during the throes of passion triggered by the fever. They didn’t plan it. It wasn’t a choice. It was instinct. Wired into their DNA to claim and be claimed.

That was why mates who hated each other had to reject fast. Because once the fever hit full force, there was no reasoning. Just heat. Just the overwhelming, primal need to fuck like animals. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

It was even more laughable that the whole damn point of the fever was procreation.

Adele wasn’t ready for a child, especially not with him.

What if the baby took more of his demon traits than werewolf? What if they weren’t accepted?

She’d heard about Micah’s childhood, the abuse, and the isolation. Even now, he should’ve taken his place as the next Alpha King, but he was denied the throne because of what he was.

Elijah still watched him like a threat. As if he was something he needed to put on a leash.

Would her child grow up that way as well, rejected by society, feared and suppressed?

No.

She couldn’t bring a child into this world just to watch them suffer. She would rather suffer herself.
