Chapter 10: Human
Author POV
"Why, is there anything bad about being with a human?" he asked, and she nodded yes in reply.
"I don't like humans; they always tend to attack us without a second thought. They are a greedy set of people!" she shouted, her voice shaking.
"That's a lie; I have been among humans several times; they are very nice. And moreover, I didn't choose her myself the moon goddess did; I am just his servant; I have to be a loyal servant," "Nathan said, his voice meek and filled with worries for Mia regardless of her behavior. He thought she was just hurt and couldn't accept the fact that he was going to be with another woman asides from her.
"I need to go; either you choose between me or her. Because I am not ready to have a CO wife, even if that's your destiny, we can rewrite it." She snapped, putting on her clothes.
"It's late already; you don't have to go. The rougues will attack you to get back at me. If you aren't comfortable with my present, I will leave the room for you. We shall talk tomorrow," Alpha Nathan said, and he put on his rope. He walked closer to her.
"I love you, Mia, but this is also difficult for me, so I wish you could understand," he said softly before going out of the room.
Mia breaks down in tears.
"I love you too, Nathan. I can't just watch you with another woman. She's even in your office. You will spend more time with her than I do.It's not easy to accept it, even though I was aware of your destiny a long time ago. I kept this to myself, thinking the moon goddess might change it after seeing how intimate we are, but it was all just my thought; it's not going to change." She cried, her heart filled with bitterness. As she quirked her lips with a heavy heart. lying on the bed without any hope. Maybe she will just have to accept it, but this is difficult for her.

Nathan walked through the hallway with a pale expression, heading towards the garden. He came across his Beta.
"Good evening, Alpha King," he said, his head slightly bowing.
"Good evening, Beta Kaden. What's the problem? Why are you around at this time of night?" he asked, trying to maintain his voice.
"I couldn't wait till tomorrow because I know you will be going to the company. I came to inform you about Alpha Marcus of the white blood pack. He's trespassing again by trying to take over our dominance." He revealed that while was looking straight at the Alpha, whose expression changed from pale to angry.
"And what do you do?" His voice echoes with anger..
"I already place our soldiers at each dominance that leads to our entry. Anyone who trespasses shall be dealt with. "Beta words come out sharper with great determination.
"You did the right thing; I am proud of you. I think I can trust you anytime I am not around. You can go now; it's late already," Nathan said softly.
"Alpha, I think we have a lot to discuss," Beta Kaden said, and he stared at him for a few seconds.
"What's that? I am listening." He gulps down nothing with his hand on his back.
Beta Kaden chuckled. "I see you are going to the garden; why don't we sit there and discuss?" he suggested, and Alpha Nathan nodded his head in agreement, as they both walked to the garden. They both sit on the bench in the garden, facing each other. Beta Kaden stood up and went to bring the chess game.
"Why do you develop the urge to play chess all of a sudden?" he asked with a dry voice.
"Maybe because I finally got a chance to sit with you after a longer time, you've been more than busy these days. You even left the affairs of the pack to me," he chuckled dryly as they both settled into the game.
"So what? Why do you want to speak with me?" What's so urgent that you couldn't keep it till tomorrow?" he asked, trying not to show his mood.
"I am worried; there's a rumor spreading out there." Beta Kaden stopped playing and looked at Alpha Nathan, who had a worried look on his face.
"What rumor is that?" He asked with curiosity.
"There's a rumor that you are going out with your secretary Emma, despite knowing she's human. Are you planning to jilt Mia for her?" Beta Kaden asked and was filled with concerns. Alpha Nathan clenched his fist angrily, trying not to lose his temper.
"And you believe that?" He asked.
"If I believe I won't ask you, I know you love Mia a lot, so I chose to hear from you. You know in every rumor there's always a truth; tell me what's going on, Alpha." Alpha Nathan gritted his teeth and took one game from the chessboard. He took over Beta Kaden's house; he was playing the game with so much obsession that Beta Kaden noticed he wasn't in the right state of mind.
"Tell me what the problem is; this isn't you. You don't give a damn about what people say, but from your reaction, it shows something is wrong"Beta said it reluctantly, and Alpha Nathan stood up angrily.
"What's their problem? Was it my fault that the moon goddess gave me two mates? I am mated to two different women. A wolf and a human, Was it my fault?" He thundered angrily, venting his frustration. Beta Khan was surprised.
"But it hurts that Mia refused to accept her. While she's ready to accept Mia. I have been working with her for a long time. I was attracted to her, but I kept trying to get rid of that in one way or another, but it became stronger and uncontrollable. And a few days ago, I found out she's also my mate. I am confused right now." He finally let out his grief. Beta stood up and walked closer to him.
"Wow! Mother goddess must really love you to put you in care of two women," he said jokingly, trying to create a cool atmosphere.
"Don't start with your talk today," Nathan said with a smirk.
"Well, I think the best advice you can get from me as your beta is that you should do what you have to do. They are both your mates and have equal rights; no one decides for the others. Treat them equally and show them love without being partial. Even if they hate one another today, it's normal. Time will heal the wound. Just play the smart card. I think I will leave you now to think." Beta Kaden advised leaving him alone in the garden. He was confused as hell. He scoffed and lay on the grass, looking into the sky.
