Chapter 239 Book 3 The Cursed Alpha's Mate

• I slept in the prince’s bed that night. The same bed the pack reserved for distinguish alphas who were visiting for a short time. Alphas couldn’t stay on another’s pack for more than three days except on special occasions because the imbalance of power may trigger an unplanned fight between the visiting alpha and the ruling alpha, especially if the visiting alpha had more power than the ruling alpha.
• I couldn’t sleep that night as the bed was too soft, the room too warm and the presence of power too strong. He didn’t sleep beside me. In fact, he didn’t sleep. I stayed up all night in the penthouse room listening to him move about and it made me wander if he too couldn’t sleep. If I disturbed his peace or if insomnia was a part of his curse.
• At early dawn, sleep took me by surprise and when I woke, I woke to panic in my guts. I was so afraid of the choking aura of power surrounding me and the fact that I woke up later than usual. Astrid would kill me. It was already past eight so I knew she would be in the kitchen by now and anyone that came in after her got a shoe flying at their face.
