Chapter 3 continuation part 2

Gulping, I held his fist and smiled when I saw that my hands were much smaller than his. As soon as I touched his blood, my wolf growled. She didn’t like seeing even a single drop of her mate’s blood on the floor. Not letting her come perturb, I slowly trailed my fingers on his long, lean fingers that were enclosed in a fist. He didn’t loosen his fingers, but when I touched his nails, I realized that his claws were gone. I smiled in satisfaction and looked up at my mate only to see that his blue-green eyes were staring at me in astonishment.

The palpitations were back and I immediately dropped my hands. “I am sorry” I murmured lowly, staring at my feet. “I… I shouldn’t have, uh… you know-” I was cut off from whatever I’m saying when a hand enclosed around my right wrist, hauling me towards him.

“You are coming with me” was all he said before he began dragging me out of my house.

“Dada” I said turning back to look at my father but I realized that my parents didn’t make any move to help me. They did look worried but they not helping only meant that they trusted my mate enough to know he will not harm me; however that didn’t ease my panic.

I hope I don’t faint again.

He stopped in the woods and turned to face me. “How many?” he asked me and I blinked in confusion.

No time to panic. It’s time to answer. “W-what?” I stuttered.

“How many rogues were there in your dream?” he elaborated his question through gritted teeth. I momentarily took a step back and realized that my back was pressed against a trunk of an oak tree. “Answer me” he said and I gulped.

“Three… there were three” I replied placing my hands behind my back to hold the tree for support, just in case if I faint again. There was another growl from my mate, and this time, he held a branch of a tree. My heart was hammering in my chest, just the way it happened when the pup had ordered those rogues to kill me in my nightmare. There was a pup and that means there were four rogues. “It w-was not three but f-four” I said and that triggered my mate to rip the branch and throw it away.

I flinched when he did that. My mate had a terrible temper and I didn’t know how to deal with it.

“I will kill them” he bellowed. “I will kill everyone who will even think about harming you”. My wolf felt pleased to hear it from him but me… I just got scared. Who talks about killing people like that?

In a flash, my mate was standing right in front of me and I stared at him with wide eyes. “You are mine” he said and my wolf howled in pleasure at that declaration. I gasped in surprise when he picked me, to be in face level with him, after wrapping one strong arm around me.

I am not going to faint.

My breathing sky-rocketed, when my mate nestled his nose against my neck. It was for the first time that I was having some male touch me intimately. Not some male, our mate. My wolf manifested proudly.

She was right. He wasn’t some male. He was my mate and I needed to be comfortable around him. I couldn’t let my social awkwardness get between us. I am going to fight that weakness of mine every step of the way. And as for the reason about his behavior at the mention of the rogues, I think maybe rogues had harmed him or someone close to him before.

Yes! I am not going to faint.

My feet were dangling in the air and I realized that my mate was carrying me with only one arm. I never realized he could be so strong. Color flushed my face, when I felt his nose on my color bone. It tickled me and I shivered lightly. Taking in my scent one last time, my mate put me down on the ground. I could feel his gaze on me while I was adjusting my crumpled pink top.

“It was just a bad dream” I said, staring at my feet and sighed when I didn’t stutter. See, I can speak without getting nervous. Dreams rarely come true! Don’t they?

“’Just a bad dream’ terrified you and kept you awake the whole night?” he asked me and I looked at him.

“I w-wasn’t awake because of that” I said and he furrowed his brows. “I was awake b-because I… I thought I would n-never see you ag-again” I said and lowered my head, when I realized I was blushing.

With his index and thumb finger, my mate held my chin forcing me to look at him. His eyes darkened for a second before turning to the same blue-green color. “Don’t worry, you will be seeing me again daily” he said and then gently took back his hands.

“Oh” I said and blinked my eyes. My mate nodded before taking a step back from me.

“You are coming with me to my pack” he stated and I am glad my eyes didn’t pop out.

“Eh?” I asked him while he was walking towards my house. “Y-your pack?”

He stopped in his tracks and looked at me through his shoulders. “Since I am the Alpha of my pack, I am needed there. As my mate and the Luna of the Pack, I want you with me” he spoke and continued walking ahead.

“Luna?” I whispered. What is he saying? Leaving my pack?

I cannot leave my pack, just like that. “Wait” I said and ran after my mate. However, he didn’t stop and so I spoke following him. “I c-can’t leave m-my pack. I go to a-a college here and my-”

“Your college is an hour drive from here and an hour drive from my home too” he spoke cutting me off.

“Y-You know where I study?” I asked in surprise.

“I know enough about you” he said
