All Chapters of The Hunter’s Rue: Claiming His True Mate: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

HunterI woke up at 5 am, staring at the ceiling for a bit, and went to the bathroom to wash up.After swimming a couple of laps in the pool, I went to the indoor gym, a heavy workout always melts my stress away. Dan walked in shortly after, and it was clear he was surprised, and joined me on the machines.Once finished Dan followed me and broke the silence. "It's good to see you, Hunter. You haven't exercised in a long time, and I haven't seen Meg around you lately. Everything okay between you two?""Am good," I replied calmly, "Without distractions, it's just been easier to hit the gym early since I get enough sleep if you know what I mean." Dan nodded in understanding.Once I left the shower with nothing but a towel on my lower body, I found Meg quietly entering the room, "Need something, Meg?" with annoyance.Meg looked at me like she belonged here "Good morning, Alpha Hunter. I just came to see if you needed anything.”"You can clean my room properly for once," I told her, my to

HunterHunterWalking away with Fleur out of the infirmary, Dan went the other way.‘Don't let the maids wash it,’ I mindlinked Dan.‘Like I am an idiot,’ Dan said sarcastically, ‘it will be untouched and safe from detergent.’Looking into her eyes, good gracious, they were a deep hazel green, as dark as a forest. She was simply perfect in every way, beauty and manners. As if grace just came naturally to her.“So, Why Fleur?” She asked suddenly.I let out a soft laugh and rubbed the back of my neck, suddenly feeling like a shy teenager "I found a little flower in your hair," I said. "My mom has French roots, so.. But like I said, it's temporary so feel free to change it."She smiled "Non, je crois que je vais le garder." (No, I think I'll keep it).We both froze."You speak French." more saying it than asking."I guess so" she said with a smile. "Looks like I found out something new about myself.""Also, your scent is white jasmine” I said like it’s the most natural thing in the world

HunterIt is completely understandable that Fleur was too tired to come down for dinner yesterday. Since she had just been discharged from the hospital and we went on a long walk, I expected that resting in her room would give her enough energy to join later, but seem that she simply needed the sleep.Skipping the swim date which doesn't add up, though. Elina discharged her because she's healthy and well to be on her own, and she was well enough to get a sandwich yesterday evening before dinner time.If it's not physical issue, what could possibly be keeping her away?Could my cool response to her flirting be the reason?In my defense, I was simply trying to avoid a repeat history of another Meg situation. No new comer owes us anything for offering them a shelter, not to provide any kind of services in exchange of joining the pack.I had Dan stock her hospital bathroom with jasmine sets the moment I caught her fresh jasmine scent. Then, after walking her through the pack upon her dis

Alpha RowanAs a family, we needed two full days just to gather ourselves. There were tears and deep, heavy sobs, fists striking against doors, and Selene’s clothes laid out across our rooms so we could still catch her scent, a way of keeping her close and keeping her visible.As much as we repeated to Anna that Selene wouldn’t want you to cry or be sad, that she did what she did to keep her safe. It was useless to prevent those screams from visiting her nights.Telling Anna to stay positive was a sick joke, because Anna knew the truth behind our fake courage. She just kept talking about how Selene never stood a chance, crying over how easily her sister used to lose her breath while jogging; let alone trying to outrun a pack of rogues.My beloved, beloved Agatha put on a brave face for all of us, trying to pick up our shattered pieces like a gentle wind carrying broken birds in the sky. I tried … Goddess, I tried so hard, to be the rock they needed to lean on. Keeping them safe was

FleurI was walking, but my mind was miles away. I knew I was young and that I made mistakes. But better late than never. Still; I'm going to figure out what really happened with Hunter and Meg.Right as we got there, speak of the devil, I saw Meg with Jake, our training leader from this morning Jake. He had his arm around her waist and was looking at her like she was his whole world. She’s honestly not even pretty, especially compared to the rest of us she-wolves.Logan and Lena introduced me to a group of three, before removing their clothes and down to their swimsuits, and ran into the lake.But Logan came right back and sat next to me on a mat under a tree, holding a cup."Have some, Fleur," he said, handing it over. "It's a light, fruity beer."I thanked him as he sat next to me. Right then, I started to feel like coming here might have been a mistake. Logan was staring at my face."What is it?" I asked with a nervous giggle."You're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen Fleur,"
