I can feel the tension spilling into the air and no one will dare to interrupt the alpha as he speaks, sleekly, yet persistently aiming to unnerve a fault from him.
“…and one of the wolves who encroached on my territory, a nomad, was sniffed as one of his own. Just like he’s come to perceive us as one of his as him, one of us”.
At his smug conclusion there, my father lifts his gaze to meet his calm ones and speaks, coating the offence on his vocals. “And why do you inform me of this?”
The alpha shrugs, “Dunno. Those nomads are known for never marking a permanent territory and it makes tracking them a herculean task to get done. So I was wondering if they came by these lands”.
“That’s why you’re here, is it? It’s true they do cross over these lands but they never perch here- of course, if that time ever comes, I would be sure to let you know Henry” Isn’t it just amus
“You don’t have to look so dismayed and hurt, Harrison was hurt when he saw the broken look on your face, that was why he snapped at Harlow. It bothers him to see you both that way, it made him feel weak and hurt his pride. This might sound strange to you but he’s always been the type to take his responsibility seriously if not intimately. He loves to look after his younger siblings and whenever he feels he isn’t doing it right, he gets mad at himself and his pride, bruised”.Listening to what she tells me, it all explains his personality to a max. Thinking back to the past, this information enlightens his actions then and makes me understand him more.“Harlow just sometimes forgets this and tends to overreact and that’s why Hayes has a better understanding of him. So don’t feel bad and blame yourself, they love to play rough anyway”.From the sound of her voice, I can tell she’s smiling and I wish I ca
I peel my gaze off her and turn back to see my mate is out too but she wasn’t the one who called my name. It was… ‘Mother’. “It’s the anger with you extraordinary wolves I can’t deal with. Never do that again, she’s the Luna of this pack and still somewhat a mother figure for you- scratch that”.Not sure if she intends to scold me or not but I find it very funny, there’s no hard emotion to it and my wolf moves close to her.Bringing my nose to nuzzle gently into her side with ears flattened on my head, she exhales and shakes her head while my mate is giggling behind the palm that covers her mouth. “I see you’ve warmed up to mom in the short time we left you huh. Look at you being so well behaved all of a sudden”.‘You say it like I’m not usually so pristine! Don’t tease me that way’ I retort to her who rolls her eyes away. Sometimes it feels as if she represents both herself and Ria. 'How long will you stay in that form?’ A new voice cuts into my mind, making me search around until
His presence begins to fade from his departure as my mate gets closer, still bickering until she’s in front of me and panting. “Were you really…talking…about me?”I hum, “I was told to treasure you and keep you safe. Having a powerful mate such as I am, your happiness is surely assured”. Deciding to tease her, it works the magic and keeps her shut, most likely blushing like crazy to my amusement.‘Sheryl’ My wolf echoes in my mind and I know she hears it as she sucks in a breath. “Um…was that your wolf just now?”I hum again, “He wants you to shift, now”. She gasps at my straightforwardness and I whistle away innocently. Might as well pour the turmoil in my chest on someone else.“You don’t have to be shy, to make it even, I’ll shift too. We haven’t given our wolves enough time to bond properly. So, you’ll fulfil my wish yeah?” I put on a pouty tone, knowing it will easily get to her and she hums.“I’ll be back” The meekness in her voice though, so alluring. It’s still amazing to have
“I’m so sorry dearest cousin” And Ria comes playing all sweet and sorry as she fusses over my mate that only drills her face into my chest the more, making a jumbled mess of my emotions as I zip my lips, completely at her mercy.And I’m freed when she lets go, allowing me to draw in a breath she was restricting me from doing. “Ugh, stop acting that way with me. You just wanna rub how much of a lovey-dovey couple you are with Ignacio isn’t it?” My mate deadpans.“Oh, is that so? I didn’t know you perceived it that way” Ria pretends to be innocent and not know about her own intended intentions as my mate clicks her tongue. “It’s so obvious from how much you both reek of each other. Stop infecting the air we breathe”. “W-what? Just admit how jealous you are already. You haven’t gone that far with Silver yet right?” And Ria bites back, erupting a growl from my mate and I sigh, shaking my head as I drag a hand down my face. I did miss Ria but definitely not for this reason.I stealthi
Walking into the hallway with my mate by my side, the moment my presence is detected, murmurings are ignited along our walk and I tusk in annoyance. They’re all gossiping about what happened two days ago with Asher and those unknown wolves. Everyone knows about the attack and they just can’t keep shut about exaggerating the gruesome way I ended Asher’s life, hinging it on the jealousy over the fact that I snatched Heather from him? For God’s sake, she’s my mate!Clouded by the annoyance fueling through my blood, I shoot an arm out, precisely grabbing whoever it is by the neck in a chokehold and yanking them forward to growl into their face. “If you’ve got something to say to me, then come up to my face and fucking say it!”My voice blares throughout the hallway, commanding an instant pin-drop silence as I toss whoever it is aside, my frame heaving unnaturally as I curse beneath my heavy breath, grabbing my mate and storming off. “Silver, calm-I cut her off by suddenly pressing
And she’s overwhelmed, my wolf pouncing on her and pinning her to the forest ground. All struggles and thrashing around recklessly brings her no help and she desperately resorts to snapping her teeth aggressively at my face to which I dodge, bringing my snout reeled from her. How fun it is to watch her struggle in vain like this. ‘I think she’s acting out of anger, annoyed at how much our disposition bullies hers. She slipped into her rabid mode earlier than we did it seems’ My wolf notes and I do realize what he’s saying to me as her orbs are set alight with her wild rage to bring me down.To satiate her wish and ease her anger, we lower our head down, permitting her teeth to incise into my flesh and create a wound. I feel her realization as she subsequently quietens her hysteria. 'S-Silver?’‘I figured you would allow your anger rule you so this was the only way to bring you back. Say, how come you pack so much power and muscles? You’re an exceptional warrior yourself’ I nuzzle
Chuckling, I fold my arms and say, “You’re quite fit for the job, at least he acknowledges that”. My little tease releases another groan from the wolf as I laugh at him who huffs through the link.‘About the nomads…’ He begins to say, his voice turning serious and I quit my merriment to pay rapt attention to what he has to tell me. ‘Uncle Henry spoke to his mother about it- just to enlighten you on something, she’s one of them as you already know. A daughter to the Beta of her time whose mate was an omega. So after she left her park for ours to be with her mate, her younger brother succeeded after their dad…’Now I know they share strong ties with Black Forest Pack and it would be outrageous to accuse them of betrayal to the pack. Still, it doesn’t overrule the suspicions on ground. ‘So we’re stuck at a dead end, unable to decipher why Asher’s family would be in cohorts with them to come after you, turning against us, one of their closest allies. Its all so sketchy and shrouded…a
Caught, she laughs out loud and I frown, hating myself for my inefficiency to control my rioting emotions. “Woah! You look as red a tomato. Aww…he’s so cute” And she holds my face up so she can look into it after she gushes at me. I bet she’s with a mischievous grin right now and I pout.“Don’t try to bully me Heather. I have feelings too” I say, my voice marred from how much I’m pouting and her forehead comes touching mine. I can hear my amplified heartbeat pounding in my ears.About to say something else to zip that teasing mouth of hers when she seals my words back with the tender caress of her lips over mine. I stomach my words back immediately to permit the soft kiss she engages me in, bringing my arms to wrap around her torso as I bring her body yielding into my will to have her on my thighs. ***I read her moves with such accurate clarity as if her body is mine and seeing the incoming fist diving towards her torso, I manipulate her body
