Landon’s p. o. v
“Um… Landon.” Mia called as I rubbed her back a few times to stop her from saying a thing.
A few minutes had gone by but I just couldn’t let her go yet. We sat next to each other and I was resting my head on her shoulder enjoying the beautiful tingles that were spreading all over my body.
“Landon, can you tell me what happened. Did Brandon do something to upset you?” She asked softly.
I pulled back and faced her seriously.
“If I was to lie to her and say yes, would she keep a little distance from him?” I asked myself silently.
“No, he didn’t. I just missed you a lot that’s why. And the fact that you have been spending a lot of time with him kind of makes me feel lonely.” I answered honestly. I wasn’t going to win her over by being a Jerk, I preferred telling the truth and have her know how I truly felt.
She sighed softly then grabbed one of my hands in hers.
“I’m really sorry for making you feel that way. In the past, we had our differences and I was more scared of you than him. But with time I have realized how much you love and care for me. I want to spend a lot of time with you too and get to know you better because I love you a lot.” She whispered.
“I love her,” Zane whispered cheerfully.
“Well, I love you t….”
“Selfish bastard,” Zane growled cutting me off.
“I mean we love you too. As in me and Zane, my wolf.” I said softly.
She smiled and gave my hand a slight squeeze.
When she looked into my eyes and her smile faded. I knew exactly what I wanted to do.
I leaned in slowly to get a taste of her lips.
“Landon & Mia get into the office right now.” Brandon’s voice came through our pack’s l mind link.
Fuck!. Was he serious!. Why call us now when we were about to kiss, the man was a cock blocker.
I pulled back feeling disappointed 0 then got to my feet.
“We have to go before he calls again.” I said while extending my hand to her.
She had a sad expression on her face as she took my hand and stood up.
“Hey what’s wrong?” I asked in concern.
She lowered her gaze and pulled a strand of hair over her ear with her free hand.
“Mia look at me.” I said seriously as she slowly did.
“Tell me, what’s wrong?” I asked.
“Well, I thought we were going to spend some time together and… make out a bit.” She answered in a whisper surprising me.
Was she fucking serious?. She wanted to spend some time with me?. And she was okay with us touching and kissing!.
This was a total temptation, how was I to turn her down in a nice way. Knowing Brandon, he would be pissed knowing I ignored him just to make out with our mate.
I wanted it so bad, but then again Brandon wouldn’t called us for no good reason.
I rubbed my free hand on my forehead lightly before leaning in and kissing her cheek lightly.
“We will have our alone time soon. For now, Brandon needs us.” I answered then moved to walk away when she pulled my hand back slightly.
I turned and faced her with a frown. She still was facing the ground.
I really wanted to just say fuck Brandon but I couldn’t and she was making it hard for the both of us.
I moved closing the space between us and used my free hand to make her look up.
“We will have our time together okay. Right now Brandon needs us.” I repeated my words softly.
“I know. It’s just that…. just that….” She trailed off.
I leaned in and kissed her without a second thought.
I wanted this and I knew that she wanted it too.
She was about to press her hand on my chest when I pulled back.
She looked at me with widened eyes.
“We have to go.” I whispered then pecked her lips.
“Please.” I pleaded.
“Okay.” She answered in a low tone.
“I promise that I will kiss you as much as you want after we settle whatever Brandon is calling us for.” I said.
She smiled then nodded.
We walked out of my bedroom and went to the office. Immediately we walked in I could detect the strong aura around.
Emily sat next to Cole who looked calm but yet furious. And Brandon stood near the office desk.
“Mia, can you please take Emily out for a walk again?. We need to talk to Cole in private.” Brandon said through our mind link.
“Sure.” She answered without hesitation.
“Emily, can you please help me out with something?. It won’t take long.” She said.
“Sure,” Emily answered then stood up and walked out of the room with her.
“What’s up with you?” I asked Cole seriously.
“When are we hitting the pack?” He asked back ignoring my question.
“What, do you want us to go there now?” Brandon asked mockingly.
“Yes, I don’t have much time on my hands. It’s either we hit the pack today or I leave.” He answered.
“What’s wrong with you, are you still furious over Brandon’s words?” I asked.
“No, I’m not.” He answered.
“Then why are you being a dick for no reason?” I asked sarcastically.
“Because he was right.” He answered then stood up.
“You mean….” I trailed off in shock.
“Yes. Apparently, my mate thinks I’m my brother.” He spat furiously.
I quickly glanced at Brandon who was calm but shocked as well.
“So what will you do?” Brandon asked in concern.
“Nothing.” He answered then brushed his hand through his hair.
“Cole, we know you well, so just get on with it and tell us what you are planning to do to him.” I said.
“Fine. If you should know, once I’m done here, I’ll go back to my god-damned pack and kill Jason. Then I’ll make sure Emily has no way back to wherever she came from, even if she hates me.” He answered seriously.
“No,” I said loudly.
“What do you mean no?” He asked with a raised brow.
“You can’t do that to her, she’s your freaking mate!. And she doesn’t have to say it to prove how much you mean to her, we all can tell that the lady is fucking in love with you. You trapping her would ruin everything. Talk to her please, don’t do something stupid that you will regret later.” Brandon yelled loudly.
“She is my fucking mate and what I decide is the best for the both of us.” He growled as his eyes switched to a dark red.
“Fine asshole have it your way. Today we will kill those bastards in that damned pack. But after we are done. Get your fucking ass out of our pack.” Brandon growled back angrily.
Everything was going off in the wrong direction.
