Evan’s p. o. v
I carefully tip-toed out of the room and walked out of the pack house happily.
“I can’t get enough of how beautiful she is.” I whispered silently to my wolf as he purred proudly.
After she had asked me to wait for her to sleep, I reluctantly agreed because I wanted to spend more time with her.
A lot of hours went by with me watching her resting, she looked like a freaking angel.
When I noticed that it was nearly the break of dawn, I decided to go back to my tent.
“What the fuck.” I muttered under my breath then slowed down my pace when I picked up Ryan’s scent. It was obvious that he was waiting for me.
“Brother.” I called in the form of a greeting when I reached where he was standing.
He folded his arms then clicked his tongue, a habit he had whenever he was annoyed at me.
“Did you enjoy her?” He asked sarcastically.
“What?” I asked back in disbelief.
“Did you fuck that slut?” He asked, this time in a cold tone.
I grabbed him by the collar and tightened my grip.
“I dare you to call her a slut again.” I spat with emphasis.
We rarely fought, that everyone knew in this pack. But whenever we did, I always had the upper hand because I was stronger than him.
“You would hit me for her?” He asked in a low tone.
“Yes I would.” I answered then dropped my hands.
He took a step back and fixed his shirt with a low growl.
“What’s wrong with you Ryan, huh?. You ought to be happy and joyful over us finding our mate. We have been waiting for her for a long time even though we don’t talk about it. You know how much we longed to be loved and needed by someone in the past. Now that the moon goddess has given us exactly that, you want to screw it up?. What happens if she rejects us, do you think we could ever be happy?. Sex and parties would mean nothing to us, think about it please.” I said seriously.
He raised his hand and showed me his middle finger.
My wolf growled in warning but chose to stand down.
We both loved him a lot even though he was very stubborn.
“Fine, continue acting like that, that’s your own problem. But I refuse to treat her badly because I care about her and I would love to get to know her better. Now if you will excuse me, I want to get some rest while I still can.” I said then got into my tent.
“His a fucking asshole.” I whispered to my wolf then lay down on my bed with a loud sigh.
“She’s human.” I muttered to myself as my thoughts went back to how she had responded to my touch.
Her moans were a complete turn on and her face looked so sexy. Her frame was fragile yet it was perfect in my embrace.
“Ahh fuck, stop thinking about it.” I scolded myself then got up.
It was getting hard again and it made me feel very uncomfortable. My brother and I hated the act of mastabation. Whenever we were aroused we went for sex.
“I need to blow off some steam.” I said then walked out of the tent and went to the training area.
“You can’t sleep?” Logan asked loudly without looking at me.
“No.” I answered in a low tone.
He was busy punching a punching bag hanging on a tree.
“Me too.” He said when I moved closer.
“I would love to have a drink but at the same time I wouldn’t.” I whispered calmly.
“And why is that?” He asked.
“I don’t want someone I care about to be uncomfortable around me. You know that the scent of liquor to some is unpleasant right?” I asked back seriously.
He stopped punching the bag and looked at me.
“I don’t get it.” He answered.
“There is a lady I care about.” I said seriously.
He pressed his hand on his hip then pointed a finger at me with his free hand.
“By chance, did you fall in love with someone?” He asked loudly.
“No, I just found my mate.” I answered proudly.
He glared at me then went back to punching his bag as if my words meant nothing.
“You know you don’t have to be an asshole over things. You can just say your congratulations even if they are fake.” I pointed out then turned and went to the men’s bathroom.
Immediately I walked in, I took off my clothes and stepped into the room where the shower was, turning it on.
As I washed my body I felt so calm and relaxed.
Once I was done bathing, I picked up a towel from the door and wrapped it around my waist.
“Let’s win her over as soon as possible.” Ridge, my wolf said softly.
“Of course. I will work hard.” I answered, then picked my clothes from the floor and went back to my tent.
I quickly dressed up and grabbed my cell phone from the drawer table looking at the time.
It was past 8 AM and breakfast in the pack house was usually around 9 AM. I still had some time left to see and check up on Lexi.
I walked out of the tent and went straight to the pack house. Once I was in I could hear a few voices in the dining room.
I reluctantly went there to check who it was, but got surprised when I found Alpha Ian, Luna Amelia, Beta Neo, Nana, Toni and Lexi drinking tea. What even shocked me more was Ryan who sat next to Whitney with a glass of coffee in his hand.
“Oh Evan, I was about to mind link you. Sorry we decided to have breakfast a few minutes earlier than usual.” Alpha Ian said as they all looked at me.
“Morning everyone.” I greeted in a respectful tone.
“Morning.” They all answered simply.
Lexi’s serious face instantly lit up when my gaze locked with hers. She stood up and walked to where I was.
“You are late.” She whispered softly.
She was wearing a beautiful red sunny dress that covered most parts of body and her hair was tied into a ponytail.
“I’m sorry, I was taking a bath.” I answered then smiled at her.
A minute went by in silence as we stared into each other’s eyes. It felt like it was only us in the room and in that moment.
“You look beautiful.” I whispered softly.
She blushed then shyly lowered her gaze to the floor.
“Thank you.” She answered in a low tone.
“Excuse me, but how do you know her?” Whitney asked loudly, getting my attention as she stood up.
I could see anger and concern in her eyes.
I grabbed Lexi’s hand and linked it to mine.
“Well I’m sorry that you have to find out this way. This is my mate. Or should I say our mate, as in Ryan’s and mine.” I answered.
“What?” Uncle asked loudly when he walked in behind me.
“It’s true.” Lexi answered in a low tone.
“What the hell do you mean it’s true?” Uncle asked on top of his voice then walked past us.
“It’s as you have heard sir.” I answered in respect.
“No!. How could you even think of taking advantage of an innocent girl!” Whitney growled furiously, shaking the table with her hands.
“I am not taking advantage of her because she truly is our mate. If you don’t believe me then ask her if she doesn’t feel the mate pull.” I answered strongly.
“I can’t believe this!. Ian had I known that this would have happened, I would have never allowed her to come along.” She spat as Luna Amelia stood up.
“Are you saying that you could have gone against us?. Would you have hidden her away while my mate’s pack suffered with the curse?. Is that what you are saying?” She asked angrily.
“No Alpha queen, I didn’t mean it like that. Look, I get that Lexi did well in lifting the curse of the pack, but if you would have had permitted us to leave there and then, this wouldn’t have happened.” She answered loudly shocking me
I looked at Lexi with raised brows as Ryan did the same.
“What!. Lifted the curse?” Ryan asked through our mind link. He too sounded shocked.
“Lexi, are you a witch?” I asked in a whisper.
She looked at me with a terrified expression on her face then shook her head.
“Yes she is, do you have a problem with that warrior?” Whitney asked with detest.
It was clear that she was using my title to belittle me. I was nothing but weak compared to her, who was an Alpha.
“Alpha, are you trying to keep her from her mates?. If so, then how about I do the same to you?” The Luna asked in a strong voice as her eyes changed to Aurora’s, her dominating pheromones were linking out but luckily they weren’t too strong. Either way it made us all alert of her powerful presence.
Whitney quickly lowered her gaze to the floor then bowed.
“Please forgive me.” She answered in a respectful tone.
“Everyone calm down, we can all talk about this after we finish breakfast, so just calm down.” Alpha Ian said loudly then stood up and pressed his hand on Aurora’s shoulder.
“It’s not good for the unborn pup you being this upset.” He whispered softly as her eyes turned back to Amelia’s.
“It’s not yet confirmed if I’m pregnant.” She whispered back.
“I know, but still stay calm.” He said then sat down on his seat.
I let go of Lexi’s hand and walked to where a few empty chairs were.
“Lexi, sit here.” I said as I pulled out a chair for her.
“No, you sit on mine.” Ryan said then quickly stood up.
She glared at him then went back to her seat ignoring the both of us.
I smirked then sat down on the chair calmly. Everything that was going on in the dinning room was fucked up but kind of entertaining.
