Chapter 3

Charlotte cried and rushed upstairs to find out where Teddy was taking Anne.

“Teddy, you cannot do this to me. I’m your wife and Luna. You cannot bring Anne into our home. Teddy! Open this door!” Charlotte cried as she stood in front of the master’s bedroom door.

Since Charlotte had moved into this house and lived with Teddy— four years ago— he hadn’t entered this room to make love to her.

But that night he brought his assistant home. Not only did Teddy tell Charlotte that Anne was his new mate and Luna, he also took Anne to the master bedroom that was rightfully Charlotte’s.

“Teddy!! Teddy!!” Charlotte cried outside the room door as she heard Teddy and Anne smooching inside.

“Yeah, baby, give it to me harder! Yeah! Ha! Fụck!” Anne moaned.

“Teddy!!” Charlotte shouted again. Just then she heard a deep voice from downstairs calling, “Is anyone at home?”

Charlotte froze. *Who was that?* The voice sounded so powerful and masculine, and she quickly wiped her tears away.

*Had a rogue entered our house? Which rogue would dare to enter Alpha Teddy's mansion?* Charlotte wondered, as she quickly searched the corridor where she stood for any instrument she could use to protect herself.

Charlotte picked up a mop stick. She knew she was weak and couldn’t fight, so she had to protect herself. She wasn’t expecting any visitor, and neither was Teddy.

“Is anyone at home?” the deep voice inquired.

Charlotte's heart pounded as she heard the deep voice coming upstairs.

Quickly she controlled the light switch, as the mansion was hers.

“Lights off!” Charlotte commanded. She felt her heart beating loudly in her chest as the corridor lights turned off. Just then she inhaled the most intoxicating masculine scent that had ever wafted through the air and into her nostrils.

The masculine scent was smoky and aromatic.

Charlotte began to lose her hold on the mop stick as she stood in a corner, ready to protect herself and hit the head of the intruder who had dared to enter Alpha Teddy’s mansion without any of the guards catching or stopping him.

“Anyone here?” As the voice drew nearer, he stopped. He could hear the rapid heartbeat. Not only that, he perceived a sweet lemonade scent that drew him in—to hold and to suck—and his wolf charged within him.

With speed, Charlotte hastily moved away from the corner where she was hiding to hit the intruder on the head, but he caught her arm, before the mop stick could reach him.

Charlotte came face to face with the tall, handsome, formidable figure who stood before her. His strong masculine presence commanded submission.

Charlotte’s wolf began to giggle in excitement for the very first time in her life. Her wolf danced happily inside her body as her blue eyes met the man's glowing green eyes.

The man muttered, “Mate.”

In the dark corridor he inhaled Charlotte’s lemonade scent. He dipped his head into the side of her neck, and she shivered in his hold as he sniffed her in the darkness.

Inhaling Charlotte's scent seemed to draw the man in, and the next moment—what Charlotte hadn’t anticipated—the stranger who was making her lose her hold on her sanity kissed her neck and nibbled on her sensitive spot.

“Mmm,” Charlotte moaned. She was committing adultery as a married woman. She was supposed to push this masculine figure away, protect her dignity, and remind him that she was married. But she succumbed and ran her fingers through the hair on his head.

She hugged him closely while he held her firmly and continued kissing her.

From the nape of her neck he moved on, kissing and licking all the way to her earlobes and her face.

“Who are you?” the man inquired, his voice hoarse. “I have been searching for my real mate for a long time, not knowing my mate was at home.” His lips traced Charlotte’s right ear, and he gently bit her earlobe.

He kissed her cheeks and reached for her face so she would look at him. He met her teary blue eyes that glimmered with hope and love, and he still didn’t know who she was.

The man kissed Charlotte's tears away and told her, “I’m here now and no one will hurt you again.” After saying that, he kissed her lips passionately.

Just then the corridor lights turned on. Standing there and looking at the two people kissing each other with eyes full of rage was Teddy Hudson.

“What the fụck is going on here?!” Teddy demanded, as the light came on and he caught his wife, Charlotte, and his elder brother, Jack, kissing each other passionately and reaching to strip themselves naked in the corridor.

Teddy had first noticed Charlotte’s increased heartbeat as he was thrusting into Anne’s warmth.

Not only did he hear her heart beating loudly; he mind-linked with her as he sensed she was in danger.

That made him withdraw from Anne just before he could reach his climax. Teddy heard Charlotte muttered in her mind, “Is there a rogue in here? Which rogue would dare to enter Alpha Teddy’s mansion?”

Teddy had quickly dressed to protect Charlotte from the rogue, knowing she was a weak she-wolf. But what he hadn’t expected was to pull the door open and meet darkness in the previously bright corridor.

Not only that, he sensed a familiar, challenging presence that wasn’t a rogue, and he quickly switched on the light to see what was going on in the corridor.

Teddy saw his elder brother, Jack, and Charlotte kissing each other sweetly and with a passion that burned with lust.

“What the fụck is going on here?” Teddy growled. “Charlotte! You bìtch! Is that how horny you are that you would dare to kiss my brother in my own house?” He charged toward Charlotte with anger. He had completely forgotten that Jack was arriving today.

Earlier, Alpha Lucas had called Teddy while he was at the neighbouring pack to say that Jack had called and told him he was coming home.

It had skipped Teddy’s mind to inform Charlotte, for he was angry upon hearing that his elder brother would be returning home.

Teddy knew their father loved Jack very much. Although the two brothers looked alike, Jack was their father’s favourite and good at everything—until he told their parents ten years ago that he would like to travel abroad and further his studies in the human lands.

Teddy was happy then, for it was an opportunity to get rid of Jack. Instead of contemplating killing his elder brother to take over the Norfield Pack.

Teddy was glad that Jack had chosen to leave the pack on his own. Even though their father disagreed, reminding Jack that he had to rule over the pack and fight in the ongoing rogue attacks to protect their people.

Jack still insisted on traveling abroad to the humans city to further his studies in business management. Now he was back to the pack that Teddy had built.
