Chapter 9

Daniel's POV

“Why don’t you admit you love him?

No one will judge you if you admit what you feel for your mate. He’s ours for goddess’s sake, you don’t have to act like you don’t care!” I tug my hair in frustration.

Damien ignored me as he continued scribbling in his notebook, his behaviour sometimes gets on my nerves.

“Damien, I am talking to you!!”

He glared at me," you know what? You and Donald can have him, I don’t bloody care!!”

He acts as if he doesn’t care now, try talking about your day with Miguel, and he will become green with envy.

 Trying to bait Mr I don’t care, I brought out my phone and checked an imaginary text.

“Hmm cutie, it’s not up to three hours since we last spoke, yet you’re telling me you missed us, this boy called Miguel will be the death of us."

I chuckled as I fake typed.

I can tell his attention has been piqued based on how his heart picked up at the mention of our mate’s name.

“Oh, we've already replied? He’s fast, maybe he misses us," I stared at the blank screen.

“Hu? Damien, he’s asking of Damien when it’s obvious the person he’s asking of doesn’t care for him, what a pain.

He will be heartbroken if I tell him the person he’s pining over doesn’t care for him. Let me tell him t_”

Damien looked up sharply, “who are You chatting with?”

“No one you care about, " I snapped returning to my blank phone, the phone was snatched out of my hands.

I stood smugly as I waited for him to come to terms that I’ve played him.

At last, it did. His face became bright red in anger.

If how his face is when he’s angry, the same way mine is, I will stop being angry.

He looks hideous with his tomato red face.

“How dare you?!” he stormed towards me, but I stood my ground.

We both are Alphas, and he knows he can’t outmatch me, we are equally matched. 

“You see what I’ve been trying to make you understand? You care for Miguel a lot. It’s time you act on that. I wouldn’t have minded having him all to myself if I don’t know what happens to a were without a mate. “

“I don't bloody care, he rejected me!!”

That's one funny thing about Damien, his insecurities will be the death of him.

“He didn't, he only asked you a simple question, and you flipped, accusing him of favouritism.”

“He asked of you two the moment I told him I want to spend some time with him, if that's not rejection, tell me what is?”

I smiled at the frustrated male, if he's not bothered about our mate's alleged rejection, he wouldn't still be in the same room with me talking of him.

“He didn't reject you, he's just asking based on the fact that we three go everywhere together.”

He waved me off, “I get it, you will always side with our mate no matter what.” 

“ You don't have to be a baby, he's _”

Guys, there's an urgent situation here.

Donald sounded worried about the issue. Even though the link, I can hear his worry and fear.

“ What's that?” Damien snapped at him, not happy about the interruption.

“Our mate's been kidnapped!!”
