Chapter 68

Book:Claiming His Tempting Mate Published:2024-5-1

Savannah’s POV
I was surprised to see him behaving like this. Earlier all the members did not dare to look into Hardwick’s eyes. But this man is clearly arguing with him in a careless manner while Hardwick didn’t seem to mind at all.
“It was your duty,” Hardwick replied.
“Forget it, talking to you is worse” that man turned to me and flashed a charming smile. “It’s better to talk to your mate. I must say purple is really attractive” he smirked.
“Look at her in a funny way and your eyeballs will be in your hands” Hardwick threatens.
“Fuck you, why are you messing with my impression?” That man cursed.
I turned my head to the other side, pressing my lips together tightly. What are they? 5?
“Oh, do you still have any impression left on you?” Hardwick asked.
I coughed lightly trying not to laugh out. Seriously. Who is this man? They are arguing and the next moment teasing each other?
“You don’t know girls would die for it” that man waved his hand.
“That’s because those girls are jumping clones looking for surficial charm” Hardwick teased.
“You are worse” that man barked before saying again “hello Luna, I am Ryan, the charming one in the pack”
Ryan? I turned to look at him in surprise. Isn’t he the one Hardwick was talking about? The beta of the pack? I turned to look at Hardwick who nodded his head like he understood my unasked question.
“Ryan?” I smiled.
“Yes, one and only” he winked playfully.
“You forgot to add the word ‘playboy’ too. And it looks like your eyes can’t control themselves. Should I do the honour of digging it out?” Hardwick raised his eyebrow with a serious face.
“What has gotten in you?” Ryan frowned “why are you after my eyes today?”
“I was just suggesting to control it since it’s going out of your control” he replied.
“Hell” Rutan cursed and looked at me again “I will see you later Luna or this man will have eyes to play with. See you soon” he ran away waving his hand without glancing back.
“What’s that?” I asked Hardwick.
He smirked “what! A scared monkey running away?”
I rolled my eyes “you really know how to piss anyone off”
“He was winking at you” he stated.
“So you will dig his eyes out?”
“That was just a warning for him. He knows his limits”
“You said Ryan is a playboy?” I frowned.
“Yes”
“Why is that? I mean what would his mate think if he sleeps around like that?”
“That’s the point darling”
“What point?” I am confused now.
Hardwick smiled “Ryan is still single. He has not found his mate yet’
“What? He has not found his mate?” I gasped. Hardwick pulled me towards him.
“He is still single and trying to locate his real mate. But still he couldn’t so he is releasing his frustration on other woman”
“But is it right to do so?”
“Don’t worry, he is not a bad guy and knows what he is doing. Though he got laid often but he does not broke anyone’s heart till now”
Now I really feel bad for Ryan. It’s almost over age but he is still unable to find his mate, I really wonder who will be his mate? But more importantly what will she say when she gets to know about him sleeping around.
“What are you thinking?” Hardwick knocked on my forehead.
“Why did you do that?” I frowned.
“You were not paying attention to me”
“I was just thinking something” I reached out and rubbed my forehead.
“Thinking what?” Hardwick frowned.
“Nothing” I shook my head.
“You are not allowed to think of something else other than me when I am with you darling”
I looked at him, “Is it a threat?”
He smiled “I don’t dare to threaten you”
“Wow, and I got to know that today?” I forced a smile.
He chuckled “pissed?”
I turned my head to the other side, not looking at him. This man is a devil who loves to tease others until they become mad. Right now I am so pissed that I want to curse him.
“You know, you look fucking beautiful when you are angry” he cooed in my ear.
I pushed him away from me “sweet tongue, I know you well”
“Since you know me so well” there’s something flashed in his eyes and my senses immediately alerted me. Oh no danger.
“Can you read my mind?” He smirked.
I moved my body backward as I narrowed my eyes at him “what are you talking about? Don’t you dare doing anything funny here” I warned him. But this warning did not affect him at all. Worse, it made him smile more widely.
“Are you challenging darling?” He looked excited.
“Who has free time to challenge you?”
He tugged my wrist and pulled me in his embrace “fuck, you look fucking adorable right now”
I bit my lips shaking my head. He really knows how to make me blush even in this situation. On the field his pack members are training so hard and look at their Alpha who is flirting with me.
“You should focus on your members training so hard for you”
“They need to be strong to stay in the pack, that’s why they train themselves. How does their training have anything to do with me?” He put on an innocent face as he asked. But in reality he is anything but innocent.
“You are not even concerned about your members” I rolled my eyes.
“That’s another thing. Now your focus should only be me, not them”
“What do you want?” I frowned.
“I want you” he leaned down. I wanted to move but couldn’t. He was already caging me in his arms, giving me disadvantage.
He was about to kiss when someone cleared throat “master, lunch is ready”
I almost laughed out loud when I saw his face. It was really funny to see him pissed. Afterall he made me so pissed so whenever he gets annoyed I will be happy and enjoy his pain.
“You really know the timing, Luina” he growled. The poor maid only lowered her head and didn’t look up.
“What’s her fault? ” I frowned “she was just doing her work. You don’t have to scold her”
He turned to me “protecting darling?”
I rolled my eyes “I was just stating truth”
“We will see that later” saying this he let me go. I sighed inwardly and thanked Luina for coming and rescuing me from this man or he would have planned to embarrass me infront of his whole pack members. I guess I am lucky today.
He got up and pulled me with him “let’s enjoy the meal first then we will talk about it later”
“There’s still to talk about?” I frowned.
“You think it’s over?” He raised his eyebrow.
“Isn’t it?”
He threw his killer smirk “you enjoy your lunch darling then…” He lowered his head and whispered in my ear.
“I will enjoy my dessert”
