My Shameless Alpha Mate

Kaden walked back to the bed and wrapped me in a hug.

He pulled back and stared into my eyes, “A few rogues can't keep me away from you – I'll be back soon. You must still be angry with me for not answering your calls or replying to your texts. I swear I'll treat you better than this from now on.”

I merely nodded and watched as he made his way out of the bedroom.

I knew that he wouldn't treat me better than this since Penny was his priority.

I wouldn't let those words sway me from my decision – I must leave Kaden.

The next evening, I was reading a novel on my phone when I heard Beta Lucas's mindlink, “Hi, Leanne. Do you know where Alpha Kaden is? I haven't seen him since two days ago and he's not answering my mindlinks.”

“Wasn't there a rogue attack last night? That's what he said before leaving the pack house.” I asked him, feeling my heart drop as I realized what I had thought was true.

There really wasn't any rogue attack. He just needed an excuse to see Penny.

Beta Lucas replied in a nervous tone of voice, “Oh, well, I don't know what you're talking about. Just let him know I'm looking for him about pack business.”

“Sure.” I replied as I sighed.

My phone beeped at that moment and I checked it to see a notification from Penny's WhatsApp channel.

I felt anxious as I checked it because I already knew what I would see.

There was a video, so I played it.

Kaden and Penny were holding hands while sitting on a couch as she narrated, “My love is my hero! Even though I arrived back home late at night, he came out to welcome me. He even took me out to dinner and he stayed with me throughout the next day.”

“You're also my hero, Penny!” Kaden replied as he pecked her cheek.

The video ended and saw many heart reactions on the post.

Most of the people in the channel were our pack members.

She must have added them just to show everyone how much she disrespected me.

Why was I even still in the channel?

I was curious, but I decided to leave the channel on the day that I would leave the Kaden and move overseas.

Even though I had expected that he was going to see Penny, it still hurt to see them together.

I called Kaden, but he didn't answer, so I sent him a voice note on WhatsApp, “When are you coming back?”

He sent a voice note, and I wasn't surprised to hear Penny's voice, “After I'm done with him.”

The audacity! I felt so angry that I growled, and before I could reply, another voice note came through.

“I might not be coming home tonight since there's still so much more investigation that I need to do about the rogue attack.”

I felt so frustrated that I wanted to cry, but I didn't want to cry over someone that didn't value me.

So I drew in a deep breath and let it out as I tried to calm myself down.

Did he let her reply to me just to make a fool out of me? It seemed so.

Then there was the lie he kept using. He said it without any shame.

Was this the man that I fell in love with?

Penny posted so many videos and pictures of her and Kaden.

I checked each one of them and my heart broke every time I saw them together.

There was one picture which she sent with a message under it that read, [We all know the werewolf saying; Werewolf mates that run together, grow old together.]

The picture of the two of them in wolf form as they ran through the woods.

How could he go running with her?

Running was very intimate with werewolves. There was the pack run then running among a few pack members and running with your mate.

Two people only went running together when they have feelings for each other.

“All I can say is happy mating, Kaden.”
