xavierThe run with Layla went very well. Only the after that had been bad. As soon as we were in human form, she acted strangely. Layla had been dismissive and barely looked at me.A step forward followed by another step backwards. The whole thing was frustrating.Xander answered, "So? Whose fault is it?" "I realize that. That question was unnecessary." He growled, which I gladly returned.I knew it was my fault. But I couldn't change the past, no matter how much I wanted to. At least Layla had stopped trying to reject me. Not that I would let it go, but it still hurts and it hurts a lot.I was now sitting behind my desk in the office. Actually, I would have enough work, but I wasn't concentrating. I was concerned about Layla. All day she was on my mind.Xander asked, "How about we strike up a conversation? You can't work in that state anyway." As if I hadn't had this idea myself long ago.Did he think I was completely underexposed?Annoyed, I replied: "I would have planned that aft
laylaI lay on my bed and stared at the ceiling. I wasn't capable of anything else. Melody chatted with me for a moment, but then she had to go. So I could get lost in my thoughts. There was enough to think about.Lilia was right. Xavier and I should have a real chat. As Lilia said, everyone should throw in their two cents and explain themselves.Only a knock on my door brought life back to me. I sat up and sighed. Theoretically, I could ignore that. There is a high probability that it was Melody and I would prefer to be alone right now. I thought Xavier was unlikely, after all we actually did something today. So why should he be here? Sarafine would also be a possibility, but Melody would be more likely.A second knock, and this time it was much louder. No, that wasn't Melody, the knocking didn't suit her. I would bet on a male knock. My heartbeat accelerated and I dared to get out of bed.That practically had to be Xavier and that made me very nervous. When I got to the door, I put
I would have loved to have complied with Lilia's request, but I couldn't. It certainly wouldn't be appropriate behavior. Lilia would freak out completely, at least I almost did.I closed my eyes and tried to calm down. I didn't want to face her with the pitch-black eyes. Especially if Mai was here, then so was Anastasia. It couldn't be otherwise. The two venomous snakes were practically glued to each other.My mum pulled away from me and I dared to open my eyes. They were darker than usual, but at least not pitch black.Lilia said angrily, "Those two beasts! They want an alpha! What's our mate?! An alpha! They must be making eyes at him, but he's ours! Just us! Nobody else! Nobody touches him!" I had trouble keeping calm myself. Didn't make it any easier with Lilia embroidering like that.I turned to Mai and yes, Anastasia was standing next to her. I was right, both were here. I put on a smile and the two poisonous snakes had one on their face for a long time. I could tell by looking
I entered his room and walked to the middle of the room. I looked around and it was a very large room. In itself the classic bedroom. Large bed, rather very large, no wonder with the giant. A bedside table on each side of the bed. A desk with some papers on it, with a chair in front of it. A chest of drawers and as a bonus I would say the large TV on one wall.It was all in shades of gray and was harmonious. Everything fitted together and it was really a nice room.There were two more doors in the room, so I would guess wardrobe and bathroom. In fact, it was very neat. It is questionable whether he kept it tidy and clean himself or whether it was a cleaning lady. I rather suspected the second.I said, "Really a nice room." I ventured a look over at him and Xavier was watching me. At least his eyes were already on me. So my eyes immediately found his. He smiled and replied, "Thank you." A stunning smile and my heart warmed.I had to shake my head and looked around again. Am I really st
Surprisingly, I slept well that night. It was probably because it smelled like Xavier in here. A divine smell and no wonder it smelled like him in here. It was his room and especially his bed I had slept in. He hadn't come home that night, but I hadn't expected that. When it came to the feral werewolves, he sure had a lot to do. Still, I missed him. That damn mate tape was driving me insane. It wasn't long before I completely spun off the bike.Lilia added her two cents: "No, you only turn completely on the wheel when the heat graces us. That will be fun." I growled at her and replied, "No, this isn't going to be fun." "Yes, you're practically going to jump it, and entirely voluntarily. It'll definitely be fun. You'd be doing us a favor by completing the mate band." How could you be like that? My wolf could be really mean. Happy when I wasn't acting rationally anymore. Lilia continued, "If you guys don't complete it beforehand and work things out, then it's only going to be weird.
I had absolutely no desire to talk to Anastasia and Mai. This couldn't end well. Lilia was keen, but no thanks.Mai looked at our mum and said, "Come on, I'll take you to your room. You should relax a bit from the trip." Our mum looked at her seriously and replied, "Mai, I'm a grown woman. I can decide for myself whether I need rest or not."What were my sisters up to? That couldn't mean anything good.Anastasia had come to me and grabbed my hand. She said, "I'm dying for the garden and a walk is just the thing." She pulled me with her and Mai said, "Mum, we mean well. We're not ordering you to..." I missed their conversation as Anastasia had already pulled me out of the dining room and the door behind too much for us.It was obvious the two venomous snakes had something planned.Lilia said, "Listen to what Anastasia has to say. We can always go back to the manor. But for now, we're going to face it. " My wolf was far too curious. But why was I complaining? I was the same. I answered
Lilia growled, "Kill that bitch!" The anger was unmistakable in her voice and I felt the same way. Lilia didn't get an answer because I was in a frenzy.Mai took a step towards Xavier with a big smile on her face. I'd call it a hideous smile, after all, she dedicated it to my mate.Her look, that was the look she always had on when she wanted to wrap a man around her finger. The woman would not breathe much longer. Did she dare to look at my mate like that? Mai said: "Xavier, you shouldn't waste your time with a pathetic woman like Layla. She's not worth it."Lilia wanted to fight her way through, but I wanted to sort that out. I wanted to end this miserable life.Anger overwhelmed me and I saw red. I walked quickly towards the two of them and was out for murder. I let out a menacing growl that had never crossed my lips before. I had never felt this extreme anger either. Jealousy was also part of it and I was no longer in my right mind.Luckily for Xavier, he took a step back and look
stormed towards the stairs in anger. Away from the crime scene and onto Xavier's and my room. Actually it was Xavier's room, but from now on it would be ours. I wouldn't allow anything else. Unless he wanted us to reject each other. Otherwise he had to share a room with me.Lilia said, "He gets a shame meal too if he rejects us. At least we should make him one if he rejects us." "Good idea." I could only agree with her.Lilia had calmed down since Melody had the idea of the dishonor. There is nothing worse for a werewolf. That would be a very good punishment for Mai. For my part I was still angry. It annoyed me so much, what has ripped Mai for an action. I should have expected that. Basically, what I also had, just seeing it before my own eyes, was a different house number. If Melody hadn't intervened, Mai would be dead by now. I got to the top of the stairs when I heard Anastasia's desperate voice: "Mai!" I stopped and thought for a moment. Should I go back and give her my opin
