CHAPTER 7

DARIO'S POV...

I asked Zane to excort her out of the pack house not because there was no accomdation for her, but I was scared, the moment I saw her, I knew she was my mate, but why a hunter, was fate playing games with me, it was a mess for me and I was not ready to accept her as my mate not now, not ever.

I arrived at the training ground, my beta Luke walked up to me.

" fuck! You look messed up"

He giggles

" She is never ever going to be my Luna"

" You are going to break the mate bond? I know, despite how long you've been waiting for your mate"

" Of all wolves, why her?"

" You would have to find out, and you cant do that by pushing her away"

" First send someone to monitor the hunters, they are up to something and these is one of their scheme"

" Or Maybe it is just fate"

Luke chuckle at his word, Zane walks over to them, bow his head in respect before speaking

" have she settled in?"

" Not really, Katly rejected her and insist she was not going to accomodate her"

" Is she aware the alpha sent her over?"

beta Luke questioned zane who still had his head Bow low, he dare not stare at his alpha nor his beta.

" Alpha! What do you suggest?"

I pinch the bridge of my nose, knowing that no members of my pack would accept her with open arms until they fully trust her, which means she would have to stay at the pack house, that which I was trying to avoid.

" Fine! Zane find a room in the pack house and ready it for her, also make sure it very far from my quarters"

I announced before walking away to go help pack members with their training.

" I will make sure of that"

Beta Luke chuckled.

***

My pack has been at war with the neighboring pack since I took over, my father who was the alpha was in an alliance with their pack alpha so I killed them both, took over most of their territory and his son presh who became the alpha started a war.

I made sure the warriors trained four times in a week sometime a very brutal kind of training to keep them ready at all time.

It was past six and I had just dismissed them from training, going back to my quarters, Aurelia was there standing right in front of my door.

My wolf suffy wanted to leap out at the sight of our mate, her long brown hair falling to her shoulder, her curves were indeed curvy and as I gazed at those brown eyes, all I wanted to do was kiss her, but it took all the strength in me to stop myself from moving any further close to her.

" Why are you here?"

I questioned as my lips curled up.

" Have been waiting for you"

She frowned, both her hands on each side of her waist.

" That I can see, but it doesn't answer my question"

" I keep hearing voice in my head telling me what to do"

" that your wolf, I instructed Mira to help you with everything you need to know about your new identity, so whatever it is, speak to her"

Without waiting for another word from her, I walked in to my room clicking the door shut.

Walking over to the closet, I pulled out my shirt through my head, the smell of damp heat mixed with the woodsy herbal aroma of lavender oil I had applied earlier today emanating from my armpits.

I walked in to the shower, cooling the temperature of the water hoping it would get Aurelia off my head,but all I could see as I close my eyes were those light skinned staring blankly at me with those brown eyes.

My wolf SUFFY was always conscious of her presence and wanted to meet her, but it was taking all the energy in me to keep my wolf in check.

*****

AURELIA'S POV....

Everywhere still felt odd to me, the world was moving fast and I felt like I was left behind.

The alpha being his rude self who did not dare look me in the eyes for reasons am yet to figure has yet explained everything I need to know while my wolf kept being a nuisance.

I pulled away my dress, and dip myself into the bathtub only then did I realize how exhausted I was.

I couldn't tell how long it was, but I drifted to my sleep away from everything yet into another scary whole, he had claws, and yet he was tender with the woman in his arms, she had those set of brown eyes, her brown hair falling down to her shoulder, I could perceive the sweet scent of vanilla with a mixture of peppermint on her hair.

The man with the claws takes a deep breath, parting his lips as he stroke her hair gently.

But his gaze suddenly drifted to neck bone staring at those vein pumping out blood, his eyes became furious and as he opens his mouth, that tender man was no longer there, his skin became pale, his claws longer, his teeth now as sharp as a knife.

He grabs her long hair and without any instinct, deeps his teeth deep into her skin blood pouring out her neck.

I scream at the top of my voice, my eyes snap open, covered in cold sweat both my hands and feet shaking as I felt a warm embrace from behind.

" Shisss..... It okay.. am here now, it was just a nightmare"

I heard his voice, it was tender causing unexpected Sparks through my spine. I held in an embrace as tight as I could not realizing the fact that I was still in the bathtub naked.

" It okay now, nothing can't hurt you, am here"

His pupils dilated, slowly stroking the tip of my strand to calm me down.

When I finally calmed a bit, he stood up going over the closet, placing a white robe close to the bathtub while making sure he didn't see anything as he turned back, facing the bedroom.

" Put on the robe, I will put you to bed"

His voice was hoarse and yet I could still feel that tenderness in it.

" am not a kid you put to bed, am fine now"

I was now out of the bathtub, tie the knot of the robe together and walked over to him

There was these flickering in his eyes that quickly vanished as it came.

" Go to bed!"

He ordered his aura sending chill down my spine. I tuke into the bed without complaining, he sholve the blanket up to my neck, his hands rest on my chest for a few minutes, he bit his lips as he stood up about to leave.

I grabbed his hand which I heard his heart skipped the moment I did.

" Stay please...."

I whispered almost to myself which I regret the moment it came out my mouth.

He stopped to stare at me, those alluring green eyes piercing deep into my soul.
