My Fake Mate

Adeline’s one goal in life was to work in the famous Bio Research Institute as a scientist, but that dream ended when she was scammed and lost all of her money to pay for her final semester. She was broke, directionless and desperate. It wasn't until she met the Alpha of the Carmine pack, did her luck begin to change. He made her an offer she couldn't refuse— pretend to be his mate and he would make all of her problems go away. Being a fake mate sounded easy, right? But not for Adeline. She had to face challenges by both him and his family. Was she able to stick to the contract? Or would their plan spiral out of control? — “Now would be a good time not to suppress that sensitive body of yours. Wrap your arms around me.” I shoot him a dirty look at his approach. “If you wanted me to touch you, all you had to do was ask.” “Please,” He bent down closer to my ear as he purred, “Touch me, darling.” My Fake Mate is created by Heather Bond, an eGlobal Creative Publishing author.

Chapter 16: Sleeping Beauty

Zale’s POV

Adeline’s long eyelashes and soft lips look elegant under the barely-there sunlight brimming over the horizon as it slowly begins to lighten the room. I exhale softly and lean back against the wooden headboard and bring my arms behind my head to rest against them.

At first, my eyes are looking directly across the room through the window, admiring how still and quiet the world is this early in the morning. But after a moment, I can’t help but draw my eyes to the woman sleeping soundly beside me. Her soft breaths escape her lips with each inhale and exhale.

I fell asleep last night while we talked about what we’re going to do about the ritual tomorrow night.

The tea incident with Leona couldn’t have been at a more convenient time for her because now my mother isn’t allowing Adeline and me to spend time together as we had originally agreed. I believe Adeline when she says she wasn’t the one who poured the tea on Leona.
