Sold To My Alpha Mate

Maya’s POV

I carried everything in my hands and was about walking out when I was stopped by Venom. “Where are you going with all of that?” He asked me.

I looked at him confused, ” I thought they were paid for already.”

“Oh, no. Not that.” He corrected. “They’ll need to pack it up for you and other things. Just come back.” He said, while he was in a fit of laughter.

I was a bit embarrassed at how I behaved, but I knew little of the modern world when I spent all my days fighting as much as I could. “Oh, I’m sorry. I’ll return it, I told him.”

We were some with the formalities he wanted to and then, I could finally leave the store, with him.

He helped with the things I couldn’t carry and we returned back to the car where we drove off to his family’s place. I was a big nervous to see them again, I feared they might be different or things wouldn’t be the same. It was just a lot of panicking for me that had become a usual thing while trying to adjust to this new life for the main time.

He would glance at me at intervals like he did the last time we were in the car together.

“Are you alright?” He finally said something.

“Yes, just a little bit nervous,” I explained to him.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

He smiled at me, “my parents?”

“Yes!” I answered.

“Don’t worry about them, all will go well and they will even take a liking to you, don’t worry about it. They liked you the last time.” He assured me. He added a gesture of patting my head to it.

It was a common thing for him to pat me now and I liked it. I wanted it sometimes, but I just couldn’t say. That train of thought got interrupted when I saw that we had arrived at their place.

“We’re here.” He announced.

“Yes.” I mumbled.

I got out and he helped carry out the things we had bought. Inside the gates, his brothers had already prepared for our arrival and they were smiling. It was heartwarming to see.

“Welcome back, are you ready to get treated like a warrior?” Caleb pronounced.

That was what I had been all my life anyway, they were so hyped up and pumped up, it was a friendly environment. I had not seen their father and mother yet and I looked around to see if they would appear yet.

Venom took things in and I followed him so I could change and come out to combat.

“Don’t be pressured.” He told me when we got in and we were alone.

“I won’t be,” I tried to be positive.

I got everything on and when I got outside and saw that they had not come with anything on to prepare for the sparring, I was confused.

“No armour or anything?” I asked them as I pointed my spear at their bodies.

“No, we’ll give you an experience, don’t worry.”

They seemed pretty convinced that they were strong enough so we started.

I swung at them a few times and they performed impressive acrobatics. I was beginning to get skeptical about my choice to fight them both at the same time. I could hear Venom’s voice from behind, “you’ve got this, Maya”.

I went at them directly and used my spear as a pole before jumping at them and lunging with my fist. They separated and I lost my concentration, thereby hitting the floor.

“Maybe your concentration isn’t so sound.” Caleb said.

I got irritated and went after him and hit him with a power packed punch. I was pretty sure I did some damage when I saw him cough.

“Let’s go now.” I got in my zone and I was fighting them effortlessly.

Every time I would successfully land punches and attacks, I found myself looking back at Venom for approval or confirmation and he would smile which led me on.

We stopped at one point for a break. They had dealt much damage, but I was still strong enough to continue which was good, it felt good.

“You’re really badass,” one of the brothers complimented me.

I only smiled in reply.

“And that’s why she’s my mate.” Venom asserted.

“Calm down, bro. No one’s taking her from you.” The brothers bantered themselves and I sat down to reflect on what the future of things would be for me after the fight at hell’s pit. I very much wanted to win.

“Maya, get yourself cleaned up so we can get something to eat. Don’t worry, training should continue soon.”

He directed me to the bathroom where I entered by myself. I wasn’t a child but I wished he would have led me in since I encountered an issue where I couldn’t drain water out of the big tub before me.

I had stood in the tub and washed myself, but the water wouldn’t go out. At hell’s pit, we barely had access to any amenities and I was so new to the amenities that were strangely laid out for me to use in Venom’s parent bathroom.

I got out with the towel and found out that he had been waiting for me behind the door all along.

“What are you doing here?” I complained.

“I just wanted to be sure you were alright and I don’t think you were, you spent quite a lot of time and I hearf some of your murmurs.” He teased.

I had spent majority of my time fidgeting on how to do things.

” Don’t worry about the bath tub, that would be sorted out, let’s get you to a room.”

I was grateful that I had not done something severely damaging to his parent’s home, then my acceptance would be ruined.

I thought about the training and how much I wanted it, the light sparring didn’t feel enough and I wanted them transforming and at their full form, they were still strong regardless of that. I guess they were still giving me preliminary lessons and more was to come.

That was what I prayed for.
