Well, shit. No one ever said anything, Sab repeated that in her head. Yes, of course. She really wouldn’t say anything. How could she? She thought of doing so, but she knew it would be difficult to believe. She was already bullied before for being weak, she can’t give them a reason to persecute her more. She would be called a liar if she says anything she can’t prove was real. Her head began to ache, along with her heart.

“You don’t look well. You’ve just finished training, you should rest.”

“Hmm, thank you for your time. I’m sorry for bothering you.” Sab stood and bowed her head at the man.

He smiled at her and nodded, dismissing her.

The following weeks, she did this a few more times with the other elders. They all responded similarly. She hoped at least one of them would have something to say, but nope. They all haven’t witnessed or heard of such a thing before.

A month later, she braced herself. She can only ask the Alpha and the Luna. They’re younger than the elders, but they might know something or know someone they can ask. They often correspond with other packs, so maybe she could ask if they might be able to get answers from someone else.

She asked Ice when his parents would be free so she can speak with them. When Ice mentioned it to his parents during dinner, they were a little surprised. That young girl used to have meals with them, but as they grew older… they’ve all maintained what is deemed appropriate distance.

“Of course, we have time. I haven’t seen her in a while. How is she? She hasn’t found her mate within the pack as well?” Alice replied.

They’re actually having a family dinner and everyone’s present. Even Clyde. He was just listening from the side, but he perked up after hearing she might not have found her mate as well. Even though there are a few others, he feels less left out with more of them. Is it wrong of him to feel that way?

“She’s fine. I’m not sure about that matter, though. Maybe, maybe not.” Ice answered vaguely. Though she said she found her mate, the fact that they’re not together is concerning to him. He can tell there’s a problem somewhere in there.

“Why don’t you invite her to dinner tomorrow? Oh, tell her to wear the dress I gifted her. I really wanted to see.” They have two boys. And given her closeness to Ice, they treated her as the daughter they never had.

“I’ll tell her.” Ice returned his mother’s smile.

“She really hasn’t told you? I was hoping she’d have her mate here so it’s less likely that she’ll leave in the future.” Her mother continued the conversation, making Ice feel a little helpless.

“It’s her matter. I didn’t want to pry. You can ask her tomorrow, if you really want to know.” He could only respond like this.

When Sab heard about it, she felt bothered. If it’s a family dinner, won’t Clyde be there? How is she supposed to act with him around? She was restless the whole day and even messed up during training. She doesn’t look well.

“Do you want to cancel? You look like you need to rest more.” Ice asked, but she only glared at him.

“It’s fine. It’s better if I can ask them as soon as possible. I’ll take a nap before meeting them.”

“Alright.” Ice reached out to caress her hair. That gesture has always been comforting to her.

“Oh, right. Mom was asking if you could wear the dress she gave you? She wanted to see you in it.”

For some reason, Sab reddened at imagining it. She’s really not used to such kind of clothing.

“I’m not sure…”

Ice chuckled, “Well, don’t force yourself if you don’t want to.”

They parted and Sab tried to psyche herself for the meeting. She would rather Clyde isn’t there.

That was wishful thinking. Clyde was there. He even opened the door for her and she froze for about a minute before entering. He has a confused smile on his face as she didn’t enter immediately.

“Sorry.” She muttered as she passed by him, careful not to accidentally touch any part of him.

“It’s been a while. What have you been doing?” He asked as he usually did.

“Just training most of the time.” It’s the only thing she liked doing because she could easily find him in the training grounds before. Now, she’s using that knowledge to avoid him. She momentarily grimaced as she noticed how different her tone is. She coughed to clear her throat.

“If I didn’t know you, I would think you’re avoiding me.”

Damn, he actually noticed.

“But I understand you’re busy. Your training’s getting more extensive, isn’t it?”

“Yeah, it’s getting more difficult to follow.” She inwardly sighed. She wasn’t sure how to answer him or what excuse to give for avoiding him. Thankfully, he gave himself a plausible reason.

Clyde didn’t notice it at first, but he looked at her clearly now. He stepped back to look at her properly. Sensing his gaze, she felt very conscious.

He chuckled, “Is this the dress mom was talking about? You look good in it.”

She blushed and timidly thanked him for the compliment.

In the kitchen, she greeted his parents.

Alice exclaimed upon seeing her, gushing at how lovely she looked. She noticed her red cheeks and happily hugged her.

“You look beautiful. See, you should wear dresses more often.”

Sab merely grinned at her enthusiasm and her cheeks reddened further. She’s not used to being complimented.

“You wait for a while. I’m nearly done cooking.” She disappeared again and Sab was left with Clyde.

“Where’s Ice?” She whispered to him. In a way, she’s glad the bond doesn’t seem to be as strong as before. She can actually stay in the same room as him without freaking out and succumbing to her desires.

“He’s getting some fruits or something. He’ll be here soon.”

“So, I’ve heard you haven’t found your mate in the pack? Is that true?” He sounded nonchalant, yet curious. This sudden question made her heart race. How is she supposed to answer?

  • His Unknown Mate   Chapter 88 – The end

    Once they confirmed the date, the preparations for the ceremony began. It’s not much, given how it would coincide with the year-end celebration. Sab tried to familiarize herself with most of the people in the pack. It wasn’t very difficult. She’s familiar with everyone who uses the training grounds, not to mention the elders, women and children she interacts with as her main responsibility. She’s bad at remembering names, though. She hoped they won’t hold it against her. She would still try, of course. More people have graduated from their training programs. This translates to a higher fighting power and better security. Hopefully, that is. Clyde remained attentive to trainings and classes, analyzing the needs and potential of new batches of trainees. All seemed to be going well and the activities have been normalized again. A couple of weeks before the ceremony, Clyde remembered something which worried him before. He deliberated before bringing it up in a conversation and asking h

  • His Unknown Mate   Chapter 87 – Alpha and Luna

    The next day, they were visited by Alpha Xavier and his men. There was a bit of a commotion when they realized Isabel has been injured. It’s a good thing Lucas has been by her side since the incident and has given her the best treatment for her wounds and injuries. Isabel helplessly tried to calm her father. “It was my fault. I wasn’t supposed to fight but I still went. I didn’t know about all their rules yet.” She tried to explain. “You’ve been here for months and you don’t know all the rules yet? There can’t be too many!” “I’ve been with Lucas most of the time. I was supposed to assist him but I was itching to fight.” She dared not say that Lucas didn’t bother telling her because he really thought she won’t be battling anyone during an attack. His role is to tend to the injured and he expected her to assist him, given how he somehow educated her about his job since she began staying with him. It was really her fault for joining the fray. Her father would probably be livid if he l

  • His Unknown Mate   Chapter 86 – Ice’s situation

    It was almost dawn when Sab sat with the others for a pack meeting, attended by the alpha’s family, the ranked members and the elders. “What was their intention?” An elder asked and everyone turned to look at the alpha. His expression isn’t good. It seemed like a serious matter. Sab noticed how his gaze was fixed at a certain point on the table and she turned to look at their Luna. She assumed they’re communicating at the moment. “Have you been informed already?” She used her link with Clyde and she saw him minutely shaking his head. “Not yet. This will be the first time I’ll hear of it. I wasn’t there when they interrogate those people. The Beta led that mission.” “I see.” Sab waited with the others. The silence was welcomed by everyone. After about ten minutes, Conrad finally spoke. “They spoke of vampires. They heard Snow Mountain is home to several. Obviously, their information is inaccurate. They believe we’re a threat.” “Do I count as a vampire?” Alice asked out of pure c

  • His Unknown Mate   Chapter 85 – Worried and proud

    Clyde tried to be rational about it. It’s true that she has trained for years for this particular purpose. He just didn’t realize until that moment how worried he would be of the possibilities. He’s simply afraid that she would get hurt. Looking back, he did think his mate would be someone who can fight alongside him. And Sab can, but he’s still not assured that she would be relatively safe. At the end of it, he realized it all stems from the fact that he wouldn’t be able to accept it if he loses her.When his father saw him, he was immediately reminded to focus and to worry less.“Have you ever felt afraid of losing mom?” He can’t help but ask through the link and he was floored by the response.“Every day, but you live with it as normally as you can. Don’t let it distract you. You have to trust your mate. She’s not ordinary. She’s your equal. Trust that she can protect herself as well as others.”Clyde grunted and talked aloud this time, “So, what’s going on?”“Rogues, apparently. B

  • His Unknown Mate   Chapter 84 – Another attack

    Sab was surprised one time when she saw Isabel on the training grounds.“What is she doing here?” She asked Hana before they started their training.“Do you know her? She introduced herself as Lucas’ mate. She’d been here since the alphas’ conference. Apparently, she stayed at his place and remained at his side every day. Lucas went out to visit the city so she came out.”She was understandably surprised to know about it. “Really? She’d been here all along?”“Yeah. She seems like a chatty one. Look at your mate’s face.” Hana chuckled and Sab quickly found Clyde. He seemed to have just arrived in the grounds and he’s already frowning at Isabel’s direction. He felt his mate’s eyes on him and turned to look at her.“Did you know she’d been here for months?” She asked through the link.“Dad might have mentioned it. I’ve forgotten about it.”“What are you going to do?”Clyde grunted. “Would you mind taking her in? Let her join your team.”“No. My team would feel intimidated. She’s an alpha

  • His Unknown Mate   Chapter 83 – Together

    They haven’t really made an announcement. News of their mating slowly spread by word of mouth. Clyde and Sab would randomly be congratulated by others in the span of almost two months. One time, as they’re having dinner with the pack’s Alpha and Luna, his father asked him if he’s ready to take over. He has now fulfilled all the requirements. Sab quietly glanced at him and he carefully contemplated. These last few months with Sab, he hasn’t really given that matter much thought. Alice spoke up before the conversation turns serious. “Sab would need some time to prepare, too. You can let her join the meetings from now on, so she’s aware of what’s going on within the pack and other important matters outside our territory. How about we give you six months? Afterwards, we will hold the ceremony of conferring the titles to the two of you, as the new Alpha and Luna of Snow Mountain. I think it would be a lovely celebration.” The elder couple gave them time to think about it. “What do you t
