Chapter 9: someone sets her up

She doesn't smell like a normal human, she has another smell, Uzo said, and I mind link my beta. " Athoni, oh, I have a puzzle that you need to solve for me," I said through the mind link. " Is it about your mate?" He asked. "Yes, Ath,nio," I replied. " How about her?" He asked. " She's pregnant and the pregnancy is a threat to her life," I said, and the word threat left tingling in my heart. I just found her, I can't lose her. " She's pregnant? How?" Athonio asked, and I guess I will have to explain everything to him. " She's pregnant, Athonio, what's hard for you to understand there?" I asked to take off my clothes. " I'm just curious, as you know. You just met her, and now she's pregnant. Did you impregnate her? " He asked and tossed the shirt on the couch. How am I going to respond to that question? The child has alpha blood, and I'm also an alpha, or is her ex-boyfriend an alpha too? I'm very curious, I have a lot of things to ask her when she wakes up. " Athonio, the thing is, I had a one-night stand with her in a hotel sometime ago. But I'm thinking someone sets her up. " I said through the mind link, not even knowing where to start from. " Wait, you found her in a hotel, and you guys had a one-night stand? He asked through the mind link with a surprised tone. "Ye,s Athon, io" I reply aslielye down on the couch and stare at the sleeping face of my mate. "Gosh, she's so beautiful when she's sleeping." Uzodroolsl over her beauty in my head. " And you left her and came back to the pack alone after sleeping with her?" He asked curiously, sighed. " I was drunk, Athoni, and she was drunk too. All I could hear in my head was Uzo telling me to mark her, er but I didn't," I reply. " So why do you think she was set up?" He asked and I got up to have a glass of water. " That Faithful night, she was drunk and I was drunk too. I saw her with a girl of about her age or probably older than her in the bar, but the thing is, I don't remember how we ended up in the hotel." I said through the mind link as I gulped the water down gently. "I still don't get it, Lucas, how is that setup? You were drinking in the hotel where she went to have a drink with a girl who might be her friend or her sister. You got drunk and she also got drunk, both of you became lost in each other's eyes, and you ended up in the hotel bed where you find out she's your mate but fail to mark her and bring her along with you to the pack. So I don't see anywhere set up is here," Athonio said, and listened to every word he said with rapt attention. He might be right, but what about the nude photos she talked about?. You might be right, Athoni,o but she's accusing me of taking our nude photos together and sending them to her boyfriend, that I'm the reason she broke up with her boyfriend. She said I'm wicked and heartless for doing that to her. So, don't you think someone sets her up? She has a boyfriend, so she wouldn't go to a bar alone to get herself drunk." I explained everything to him through the mind link. " So the girl you saw her with in the club took the nude photos and sent them to her boyfriend?" Athonio asked, " That's what I think, Athonio. She must be someone who knows too much about her relationship and had wanted to set them apart and I'm glad she succeeded in setting them apart but putting the blame on me and making me look like the culprit is what's pissing me off" I reply. That's just the truth; that girl must have taken those photos and sent them to her ex-boyfriend. The jealous street girls. I'm glad she did by pushing my mate to me in the hotel and by helping her to cut ties with that asshole. " Okay, I agree with you. Let's assume the girl you saw her with at the hotel took the photos, but the question is, how did she do it?" Athonio asked. " That I don't know. I only know how she did it, but I'm suspecting her as the culprit," I said through the mind link with a deep gaze. " So, do you know the girl in question?" He asked and I replied with a " No" " I don't know the girl, but I can ask my mate when she wakes up. I know it won't be easy to earn her trust easily,b ut I have to expose that girl so that I can earn her trust," I said, and I walked to where the heap of fire is and heat up. " It won't be easy to get information from her, especially not now she's still accusing you. She will think you abducted her because she was unconscious when you brought her into the pack, which will make her angry with you," Athonio ssai and I nodded with affirmation. Athonio is right, she never agreed to follow me here in the first place,ce but I will make sure I earn her trust, prove to her that I'm not the person behind those photos. I will prove to her what it feels to an alpha mate and what true love ly is not that puppy love she had with that asshole.
