‘They will get addicted to her blood, Hawk’ I mind linked him ‘They will want more because it fucking tastes so good.
I can see the high level of doubt on his face but he seems to be wise enough to clear it. To make himself look a little bit helpful and on my good side Beta is not someone that cares about Caramel and an omega.
‘I know what I am talking about, Hawk’ I continued mind linking him ‘Her blood feels so good, it makes you have this wonderful feeling like some kind of….’.
Raising his hand up, Hawk sighed. His bored expression moved to the phone on my thighs and he smiled.
‘Addicted like how you became addicted to this device?’ He asked.
It’s not bad to be able to run so many things at once. To be able to spy on your mate naked with a spy camera and browse how humans see us. It’s also fun to know that so many people believe we are not real even when we live among them.
‘I know I thought Rain was a vampire when…’.
“Because she looks so pale” I interrupted Hawk “I was pissed about that too”.
Who won’t? Imagine getting rejected two days ago only to see your mate badly wonder in the woods. Worst, she can not feel your connection, can not hear your voice in her head, and seems totally empty. The next day, you get to see her smelling like a claimed wolf only to find out that the Alpha had injected her with his blood to cover up her scent or maybe make her forcefully heal fast.
“You trust him?” I asked.
“The Delta?” Hawk asked back ‘Axon?’ He added in his mind link.
Nodding in agreement, I adjusted on the chair. I terribly want to stretch my legs and talk about something else to ease my anger boiling in me right now.
‘Brook seems suspicious too but that Axon, that’s something else’ Hawk said in his mind link “She can barely even hold her spoon much more stabbing someone with silver”.
He has a point but that doesn’t make me not suspect both Alphas. Brook and his father look so evil and I can vouch they are up to something. Well, I can’t trust Hawk with my findings so far, not when I am not sure.
‘She smells more like Jaxon or something close to him’ I mind-linked Hawk ‘You know only Alpha’s blood can make wolf heal so fast. Since she smells nothing like Brook, Jaxon might be the issue’.
Shaking his head in disapproval, Hawk stared at his nails before beginning to chew at the smallest finger.
‘Axon’s father was once an Alpha, hope you remember?’ Hawk said in our mind link ‘If you suspect Alpha’s blood, I think Rain is also an Alpha somewhere’.
Looking up at him in shock, my gaze narrowed. How come didn’t think about this?
“Just saying!” Hawk shrugged “How come will her blood be able to heal so fast then?”.
Seating on the couch in Alpha Jaxon’s office, I could not just get my eyes off Brook. Not for one bit.
He didn’t seem more like the Brook that always want to talk his way out. Not anything like the man who was trying so hard to keep my mate. Brook just sat still, watching Hawk and his father talk about random things before reaching the main point.
No matter how Hawk tries to be polite, Jaxon isn’t just flowing well. He just seems off, like having someone wrong with him. I even suspect he is unwell, maybe dying, and too occupied to talk ro deal with it. Maybe Brook would have something to with it because his blank glance now rested on his father.
The Young Alpha seems to prefer watching his father stutter. That’s more than the highest level of disregard, something I would never do to my father even if I am still mad at him for dying on time.
Why do I even act surprised or pissed when I noticed a little something off the last time I came here. It was Jaxon who was mean, harsh, sounding lively, and even was willing to let Rain off without thinking twice. For a man that has decided to save her because his son found her in the woods years ago, I did not expect he would give her up so easily unless he is tired of her.
That’s odd! What if Jaxon knows about what Rain really is? What if he is the one even running the so-called experiment his son was talking about just to cover up?
That’s should explain it, how she looks like a walking corpse here and badly injured and yet no justice. Even though I have omegas too in my park, I never get to let the slide without getting justice as long as it’s being reported to me.
I see Rain is not the type that would want to complain, the fact that she works every day means a lot! They will have to see her, smell her blood, smell who has hurt her recently, they have smelt how badly she eats or nothing.
‘Since they said he found her by the waters naked on a rainy day’ Mox Whispered ‘Do you think Brook is her father and is hiding her?’.
Really! Is Mox really saying this or is my mind playing tricks on me? Goddam it! Brook is just 6 years older than Rain! How the hell can I be so wise and my wolf a dummy?
Rolling my eyes as hard as I can, I didn’t expect to catch Brook glaring at me. That’s the least I expected, not the last because I can see how tensed, arrogant, and pissed he was that I caught him glaring at him. He knows I can’t kill him, I can’t hurt him, for crying out loud he is an Alpha just like me.
The only difference is that I collect the levy, take that to the Alpha King, deal with the stubborn Alpha and remain ruthless.
Good thing Hawk is helping me do the talking because I am sure not in the right mind to do so. I am worried for Rain, for her wolf, for myself, and that she might even want to reject me anytime.
Staring at the father and son, the only thing I can see between them is blood. If not for them sharing the same blood, I am sure they might have wanted to rip each other apart, especially Jaxon.
“We came here last during your ball, Brook” I suddenly interrupted “I mean, Alpha Brook”.
With a clear smirk on my face, I stood up from the couch and began to walk around the room. Wide enough for the Alpha, I feel Alpha Jaxon is doing a great job in this Alpha-ing thing. Files, his computer, three nice couch, the neutral smell of the room, and his stamp ring. The very one Rain has stolen.
“Did you get your mate, Brook?” I asked, “Just wondering how my good friend would not send me an invitation and why the monthly levy has still not been settled”.
I heard it, his low growls, not from Brook I was expecting but for his father. There have being something odd about this man, the fact that his office smells like a three-day-old dead pigeon. We are cannibals but we don’t eat pigeons, maybe bigger birds but half cooked.
Turning back to look at Alpha Jaxon, I walked up to him, smiled, and looked passed him.
“You must be stressed out, Alpha Jaxon,” I said “Since Brook is now the Alpha, why doesn’t he settle the matter since he will have to do that for as long as he wants?”.
Patiently waiting for a reply while I look back to Hawk, a small smile spread across my face as I noticed his finger. Grabbing hold of something really small and hiding it in his sleeves, that’s why his parents named him Hawk.
“It would be a shame if I find a mate and not invite you for our celebration, Alpha Rex,” Brook said for the first time since we arrived “I am sure the moon goddess has a reason for not allowing my mate out now”.
Holding the snorting laughter inside of me, I feel so proud to hear someone like him talking about not letting his mate out by the moon goddess. That means if he is so stupid like this for real, his would definitely be worst!
There is no way Brook’s mate would be in his Park and he will find her. He better move out of his park, organize balls in other parks or visit other parks during their balls. He might be able to see her, I all sure she is there somewhere, maybe waiting for him.
Who knows if he has gotten a weaker mate like mine and decided to hide her.
What a shame.
“Indeed” I intoned nodding.
Walking towards the door, I took my cloak from the wolf standing there, and for the first time in my entire life, I smiled at him. I don’t even have enough time to acknowledge them if not for my strange omega mate. If I had not acknowledged her with her cup of coffee, I am sure I would still be nursing the fact that I saw her last wonder and empty in the woods.
“You are two months passed the collection date already, Brook” I turned back at him.
Looking at him for a while, then his father, I nodded again. A sign of respect though, after all, they are not just wolves, they are Alphas, just weak Alphas and if the Alpha king finds out about me humiliating or thinks my visit to them was humiliating, I will for sure have something more to worry about.
“Let the reach today or the Alpha King get you to message about you not wanting to comply”.
Ouch! That’s blackmailing.
