Oh, my bad.
I can’t believe I absolutely forgot about my wolf. Well, that’s a nice way to start a blissful morning. Imagine sleeping, getting a call from your mate telling you that breakfast is ready and your annoying wolf telling you how much of an ass hole you are.
Walking out of the bathroom naked and water dripping down my body, I grinned at Hawk. He should better stop acting like gay because I don’t see why he won’t be able to stare at my naked body on the field or battlefield and would be so uncomfortable to see me naked in the room.
I won’t lie, I had thought about him being gay too because he barely has anything to do with any female wolf. Caramel that has always been killing herself for him is yet to be found and all he cares an about of finding his mate because she is the Luna and not even because she is a female wolf.
Ready for anything, I got dressed in a simple tee shirt and sweat. Sneakers would be fine so I just have to kick them off and rip my clothes apart if I urgently need to shift. Not as if I love the outfit, ripping them apart would do so fine too.
Walking down the passage and getting respect from every werewolf, I did arrogantly well to ignore all of them.
“The Elders are still planning on your ball even after you shift it twice,” Hawk said as walked to my office “I am beginning to think you are so good in ruling this park alone without a Luna or Beta” he added.
Same thing. Such nerves!
Trying hard not to glare at him failed awfully as I stopped. He too stopped and did what I didn’t expect, he glared at me.
‘It’s not as of you cared about us anyway ‘ he minds linked me ‘All you care about is to maintain been ruthless, the most feared Alpha who started ruling at the age of thirteen amd now he is twenty-seven, rejected by his first mate, getting the second rejected scares the shit out of him that he does not know his left or right!’.
That was intense!
Frankly, I want to give him a thumbs up after I get my Mate and punch the shit out of him but you know what they say about the truth. Truth hurts amd that’s how I felt, my heart hurts that I still could not hide what I have been wanting to hide for as long as I can remember.
I have always wanted to do the right thing and look where it brought me today! Been hated by all! I bet even if Rain would survive a bit out there, she might get killed because of me.
“We have been standing for too long, Alpha” Hawk interrupted me “Can we go in already?”.
Silently, I walked away from him. Heading into the office and make sure to be patient until he finally entered. He took the seat in front of the one I took and sat silently too, just staring at my face.
“Sean just mind-linked me that Raven is around with something you might want to see”.
“And why didn’t he mind link me directly?” I snapped “Because he feels I am ruthlessly arrogant and self-centered?” I intoned.
Again, Hawk didn’t say anything. He just started blankly are then sighed.
“You perceive them too?” He asked.
I do.
I have been perceiving their annoying scent since we entered but what do I need them for?
“Should I call them in?” Hawk asked reasonably this time “If you want, I can tell them that you are working on something important and you would maybe se….”.
“Let them in” interrupted.
Waiting for him to mind link The elders and Sean, I stood up, preparing for what to come. I was ready, for any kind of shit, any kind of talk amd for sure, I am going to give them what they all want.
Do they want the ball? I will give them what’s bigger than the ball.
Staring at the representative four elders in front of me, I wonder why they didn’t bring the twenty bit still, I have no problem. The rest can spread the news.
“Greetings, Alpha Rex” one said almost immediately “We have been concerned about you”.
“Or rather concerned about the ball to get me a mate” I grinned.
Pointing towards the list of the missing girls on my table, I grinned again. Where else is it supposed to be when it’s my everyday prayer? The dry looks in their eyes show no sympathy for the missing girls, not even for the ones from our park just because they are omegas.
“The hunters are looking everywhere for them, Alpha,” The same mouth speaker said, “What if you should rather rest, each park will sort their missing his and work on how we will find a mate for you?”.
Impressive!
Smiling, I moved stray hair off my face and gaze at Hawk. The disappointment he didn’t bother to hide shone brightly on his face and as he stood up, he growled inwardly. The issue is that I don’t know if he is disappointed in me or them but I hope it’s better to be them.
He can’t be disappointed in me, not even for not trying to know what it’s like to keep the park out of threat till Rain’s arrival.
Yes! Anything that would bring a threat to Rain and the park should be that knows what Rain really is.
‘How come you didn’t think about that since?’ Mox asked.
Ignoring, I for well wasn’t in the right shoe to argue with him.
“What if I tell you that I already found my mate?” I asked.
My gaze again traveled to meet Hawk’s stunned one. They were all surprised, but Hawks he looked beyond but I don’t give a damn. After all, he was the one that wanted me to talk so much about my mate so why does he want to act like he is…. worried for me?
Ignoring him, I turned to look at the elders and Sean.
“What if I say one of the missing girls is my mate and I don’t want to tell you since because you all were too busy looking at Caramel Gregg instead of the new… omega Rain Hope”.
They all stood still speechless.
That’s what I want, turn the table back at them. I know I am the one that should have told them about it but since they are too busy getting me a mate, I will let them worry now about how inconsiderate they had been when it was certainly my fault.
Did I do something wrong?
Frankly, I wonder why the elders and Sean kept staring at me including Hawk. I don’t get why he kept staring at me like he wasn’t expecting me to disclose the identity of my mate in such a grand manner.
Rubbing my palms together, I calmly listen to the sharp sound coming from it due to the harmless of my hand. At least, it’s better than yelling and having to control yourself from turning your park into a blood bath.
“Since you all know who my Mate and your Luna is, I think you can still go ahead in your preparation with planning a ball to welcome her when she comes back alive,” I said with every bit of satire.
No doubt, I see how guilty and sorry they looked. I understood I wasn’t supposed to say much but who cares! They were about to choke me out of sanity if I didn’t act fast.
“We will make sure we send the search team again today” One of the elders spoke finally “We will make sure our luna gets found”.
Watching them leave, I sighed.
‘Was that too much to say?’ Mox snapped.
And that would depend on what Sean still remains staring at Hawk’s face as if want to appease the messenger of the gods before talking to the Oracle.
Heading to my seat, I glared at him for a few seconds before bringing out my phone from my pocket.
“What is taking you so hard to spit out?”.
“That Raven is around and has been wanting to see you” Sean replied.
Yeah! That should be a good reason to keep shut for as much as I should have not asked.
Raven was the last person I wanted to see at that moment and hearing her name pissed me to the core.
“She said she has something you might want to see that belongs to Rain” Sean continue after a few seconds of silence “The new sneakers you purchased for her”.
I hissed, glanced at Hawk, and rested my visions on Sean who didn’t say anything but stared at me.
“Let her in,” I instructed.
Sean and Hawks walked out and within seconds, Lyna walked into the room. She saw the anger and irritation on my face but chose to ignore them.
‘Please don’t kill her’ Hawk reminded me in the mind link.
