A Mysterious She-wolf novel Chapter 30

Kavi's POV

Akhilan tried to convince Rakshana but she didn't budge. He was in the middle of us struggling to balance between us. I asked him to stay in Green ocean for the time being and I moved to Blood warriors. Luna shrini accepted me to the pack and instantly I felt the Alpha in me gaining power and dominance over the pack. As I defeated the previous Alpha on a fair fight, it was natural to gain his title. And being the heir of the pack, I didn't need the previous Alpha to step down to gain my powers. All of my friends participated there to cheer me.

Usually, other pack members would not be allowed in pack business but they allowed them for this once. All my powers and senses gained twice the effects after accepting the title. I received a bouquet from council members and I was invited formally there as an Alpha should pay a visit after stepping up.

Luna shrini didn't seem to know any of the pack business. So she decided to stay at council till the inquiry gets over as she wants to spend some time with her firstborn. She worries about her husband too but didn't mention it to me. Iniyan decided to stay back because he was afraid to be with them. I promised her to take care of him. I couldn't find what was wrong with him but something was stopping him from shifting. He never communicated with his wolf but he smells like one. It was confusing me.

Vijay and Nakul were helping me with the administration and I decided to meet with every pack member one-on-one to know about them personally, also to know what they wanted to improve in our pack. For some reasons, they all were calling me Alpha instead of Luna. I am not complaining but it was strange. After a week, I had that personal interaction with every pack members and it actually helped me to quickly get closer to each of the members. As my first decision, I made all the werewolf to complete their schooling and made some attractive changes to their usual schedule. Most of the females wanted me to allow them to train along with men. Males didn't demand anything specific but I asked them to interact with humans like the other packs do.

I started the training on the first day. They do train hard. But they are emphasizing the wolf. I suggested the head warrior, Bharathi to train their human part. He looked at me strangely but when I fought his wolf with my human form, everyone understood my point. Because if our enemy chose to attack us with wolfbane or silver laced weapons, we should be strong enough to take them down. This point brought great respect for me as no one had ever given thought to this fact. I love to train kids as they had this spirit and energy like no one.

I had a separate meeting with patrols to know their strategies and suggested them a few things. I made Vijay install surveillance cameras around the territory. A new building for the hospital was in the process of building. The main pack business was farming and selling the fruits and by-products from the forests. At least the previous Alpha wasn't greedy to destroy the forest. The one side of the territory shares the black lake with Black lake Pack. And the river bank provides us with a great natural fertiliser. And they aren't using any artificial fertilisers. I didn't have anything to change with that. But I raised the pay for those work on fields. I suggested a few business models as instead selling the product directly we could make some products for humans need which would yield more profit. Later in the pack dinner, we decided to talk about it.

There was quite a paperwork as Alpha which was actually tiring. I was thinking of a way to cut short this process. Because I could invest my time in much more efficient things. A work of an Alpha is to lead the pack most efficiently. And I hate the time I spend on this paperwork.

I love to be here but the only thing I am missing was my mate. Akhilan would visit me daily but we couldn't able to spend time together like before. Our wolves weren't happy about this arrangement. My pack members treat him with equal respect. And just like me he too has felt that dominance running through this body whenever he enters the pack. We miss each other and nights were always torturous. We couldn't get proper sleep. And we couldn't mind link as I didn't belong to Green ocean pack anymore. Often I would zone out with his thoughts. Vijayan and Nakul understand me and with a smile, they'll bring me back from my dream world.

I told my life details to them. I trust them with all my heart. And we naturally have the bond which would help us to lead a pack together. Vijayan was avoiding the topic about his son for some reason but I didn't want to pressure him. I knew he will tell me when he feels like telling.

Dhaya had found his mate, Nila. And the couple had mated and step up to Alphas in a month time. I was so happy for them and visited there twice to see my family and friends. One of such time, I ran into Rakshana. I tried to talk to her but she gave me a disgusted look and walked away. No one can change what was destined. And her hatred wasn't going to change the fact that her son is my mate.

Iniyan was eating well and looking more healthy now. I will give him special training and he was smart enough to learn the moves quickly. The top floor is for the top three rankings but previously all of them decided to stay separately at their own house. So currently Iniyan and I were occupying the top floor. I took the Alpha room which had all amenities but kept unused for a long time. I renovated and upgraded the place to my liking. Iniyan too has an interest in the computer like me and I would teach him whenever it was possible.

I was on a video call with my mate as I couldn't sleep and it was midnight. I was narrating my day to him. Suddenly I heard a noise outside my room. I asked him to wait on the line and went to check there. Maybe Iniyan couldn't get sleep and be walking in the hallway. I found the hallway empty and I entered the next door and found him asleep. Akhilan was bothered and his voice was echoing in headphone about what was the matter. I just told him that I heard some noise and walked out after ensuring the sound wasn't from Iniyan. And in the hallway, I heard the sound again. It was a slight growl and sound of a person moving. I couldn't smell any rogues. I closed my eyes and scanned the place for any aura and I sensed someone at the corner room which was designated for Beta and his Family.

I slowly walked to the room cautiously and found the lights switching on. Akhilan freaked out and asked me to not go there alone. I asked him to calm down and pushed the door open and found a drunken man trying to remove his t-shirt which was stuck with his head. I was confused and his smell wasn't a familiar one. But I couldn't sense any danger from him. He was just drunk and his aura was radiating that he was irritated. He didn't smell like rouge but who is he. I voiced out my thought.

"Who are you?"

"Argh, bitch! Don't stand there. Come and help me to get rid of this."

My wolf annoyed at his disrespect but went to him and removed his shirt. On seeing his face, I realised who he was.

"Ashwin?"

I questioned him. He looks like a junior version of Vijay.

"Oh! You know me! But who you are? New members not allowed on this floor. And I don't want a female on my bed. Get out."

I didn't want to disturb Vijayan and either this wolf wasn't clear-headed. My headphone came off when I helped him and I saw the call was disconnected.

"Don't you know anything happened in this pack?"

I asked him leaning on the door. He looked at me up and down. And he doesn't look bad either even at this drunken state. After all, he has Beta blood in him which naturally has charming charisma.

"Haven't you gone yet? Why that old man allowed you in this pack? Get out of my roo..."

Actually, he passed out before even finishing the sentence.

I shook my head with a frown. What's wrong with him? He looks just as old as Nakul. Why hasn't he step-up yet? Why he was drinking so much? He doesn't even seem to be aware of what was happening here. A Beta should know everything about the pack. I have so many questions but I need to wait till morning to get answers. I switched off the light closing the door and walked back to my room. Suddenly I heard quick footsteps of someone rushing here and paused to see who it was. My mate's scent hit my nostrils deliciously and a smile adorned my face automatically.

I saw him running on the stairs shirtless and his wolf was on the surface. He spotted me and ran towards me. He examined me and hugged me tightly burying his face on my neck inhaling deeply and growled out 'Mine'. I hugged him tightly and nodded my head agreeing with him. His body was sweating and his heartbeat was racing. His aura showing love and... relief?

"What happened?"

I asked him.

"Where is that bastard? How dare he speak to you like that?"

His wolf growled out. Now I understand the reason my mate came running in the middle of the night.

"Hey! He is Vijayan's son. Something is wrong with him. I already mentioned to you about him. He doesn't even aware that I am Alpha here. He was fully drunk and passed out actually."

I answered him while rubbing at his arms. His heartbeat came back to normal but his frown hadn't gone.

"Hey! Chill. Don't spoil this night. We hardly have time for each other in the daytime. We can do a lot now that you are here!"

I said suggestively with a hint of sexy tone. He growled out with darkened eyes and lifted me and walked to my room. He put me hard on the bed but stopped before stepping in. Akhilan was in control again and he eyed me with lust.

"I was drenched in sweat. Let me freshen up."

He used his wolf power to go to the bathroom and came back in a few minutes. In the meantime, my wolf was suggesting me so many sinful things and my body really wants him.

He came out just in a towel. I bit my lip lustily watching my smirking mate taking slow steps intentionally teasing me. I gulped and raised from the bed and walked to him. He stopped rubbing the wetness with the towel and watched my every move in anticipation. I blew some air on his chest and saw a shiver running across his body. I walked past him and opened my shelf to get him a t-shirt and shorts. I stocked up a few knowing it would be useful for us. I gave it to him and went to the restroom to clean the wetness accumulated between my thighs just from looking at him.

I just showered before bed and I have cleaned myself yesterday. I was getting nervous but I don't mind becoming his female completely. I walked out and found him lying on the bed shirtless and the comforter was covering up to his hip. The thought of him being naked on my bed making me and my wolf excited. I looked at the clothes I kept for him and the shorts was missing. So he was still on the teasing game. My wolf wants me to be bold. I walked to the side he was laying and straddled his waist. He purred appreciatively and cupped my hip. I traced my fingers over his tattoo and leaned down to kiss his neck. His skin was so smooth and silky. I licked and sucked his milky skin.

Soon I found his sweet spot and wolf was happy that we found our marking spot. He was moaning and his hands were holding me in a tight grip. A loud growl escaped him when I bit there slightly. He flipped us quickly. He hovered above me and smashed his lips on mine. I circled his neck with my hand and kissed him back softly. The tingles were making me more horny. He left my lips and kissed my cheeks and jawline and proceeded to my neck. His hands slowly making its way up inside my t-shirt. Wave after wave of shivers running through me with his touch and kisses.

He spotted my marking point and sucked there hard making me moan loud. He growled out 'Mine'. He licked there a few times and I felt like I was lost in heaven. I curled my toes as the sensation was too much. He was moaning louder while slightly grazing his canines on the spot. Usually, wolves would have their marking spot at the right side of their nape but mine was on the left side. My eyes opened wide when I felt him sinking his canines into me. The pain had turned into sensual feel instantly. I could feel him tasting my blood. He sank his canine completely and that's when I felt our bond joining together.

Like a spell cast on two shining threads, they took spring-like spiral shape and they started intertwining with each other and formed a cylindrical shape but there was a little gap between them and I could see the differentiation between our souls. Mine was blue and his soul was red.

A sound of thunder striking and a sharp pain in my heart reached my senses at the same time and I pushed Akhilan away. I subconsciously heard his body hitting the floor with a thud with the force I pushed him. The mark should be closed by mate with him licking clean the wound. As I pushed him away before he finishes, my mark started bleeding and the pain was something I never experienced in my life. My neck and heart pains at the same time. He rushed to my side and looked at the horror as the blood was pouring out without stopping. And I could feel the mark burning like it was lit up in the fire. I let out a loud scream matching with the weather outside. Akhilan knelt before me clutching his stomach feeling my pain through our bond. The darkness engulfed me when another scream ripped past my throat with the excruciating pain.

*****

I whimpered in pain with my closed eyes. The cold air was blown on my neck and it was soothing for the pain there. I sighed and opened my eyes slowly and blinked a few times. It was so dark except a ray of light. I felt like I was laying on someone's lap. I raised my head and saw a person covering his face with a black hood. He feels familiar to my heart and I feel the same way I would feel with Akhilan with this person. His hand stroked my hair so soft. I looked around and whimpered when I felt the sharp pain on my nape. He shushed me like a baby. He bent and ran his tongue over the sore spot on my neck and sucked there. I moaned as it felt so good. He chuckled in a deep voice. I tried to peek a look at his face but his face was covered in darkness.

"You shouldn't have let him mark you, Cupcake. You are mine! Come to me soon, my love!"

He said in a very deep tone. I couldn't speak. So I whimpered and he cupped my cheek and brought his face to mine. Before he could get any closer he vanished into thin air. Now I took a good look around my surroundings and realised I was in the same place where I would see myself in dreams on my birthdays. I started panicking but I heard his deep voice whispering me to sleep. And again darkness covered my vision.

*****

I woke up coughing and inhaled deep breaths. I felt my body was completely exhausted and my nape was paining like someone had cut me there with an axe. I relaxed and looked around to see Sezhiyan and my mom looking at me with concern. My throat felt like Sahara desert. I cleared my throat and my mom held a glass of water with a straw in it. I drank the whole glass and felt relieved. I scanned the room again and frowned when I couldn't see my mate.

"Akhilan!"

I whispered. I started feeling dizzy and I knew I was losing my conscious again. All I heard was my mom telling that my bleeding has finally stopped.

The next time I woke up, I felt better but with a strange sadness in my heart. The room was empty and I wanted to cry as my mate wasn't here. I miss him. Why he was not here when I was sick? I want him. What was happening to me? I didn't realize I was crying. The IV was connected to me and I knew I wasn't fully recovered from whatever was happening to me. I mind linked Vijayan and asked him to meet me immediately. He appeared in front of me within seconds and his face was filled with so much concern.

"Are you okay, Alpha? How do you feel now? We were so worried about you. Let me call your mother."

I held his hand to stop him from running away in excitement.

"Akhilan. I want him. Where is he?"

I cleared my throat. He immediately gave me the water to drink. I still felt discomfort near my nape. I touched there and found my skin swollen there and it stings like a bitch. I was confused now. Why was I hospitalised in the first place?

"I banned your mate to enter our territory, Alpha. And Sezhiyan agreed to hold him back till you wake-up."

I heard him say in a hate-filled tone. I looked up at him quickly and held my neck in pain. That's when I noticed a few cut and claw marks on his skin.

"What did you say? Why the hell did you do that? He was my mate and Alpha of this pack."

I yelled at him. He flinched at my tone and bowed his head.

"Sorry, Alpha. He will become our Alpha only after you mark him. And he had marked you forcefully. We heard your scream. Don't you remember that?"

He asked me with his bowed head and confused tone.

WHAT?

Forcefully marked?

Yeah! I remember him marking me. But he didn't force me!

'What the hell he was talking about?'

I yelled at my wolf.

'I don't know. You pushed him away before he licks the mark because of the pain. But it won't bruise unless we don't have consent on it. You should ask yourself why you didn't accept our mate.'

She said in an annoyed tone but her voice is weak too.

'What? I did accept him. You know'

I was confused now.

Wait, he marked me. So I could mind link him.

'Akhilan? What happened that day? I want to see you. Please come to me, baby.'

I pleaded to him with a relief of his mindlink being open. Unknown anger and sadness seeped into my heart. It was my mate's feeling. Our bond making us share feelings of each other.

'I will come. Inform your patrols.'

He shut our link with that. I ordered Vijayan to inform the patrol about the visit of my mate.

I thought everything was going fine.

What was happening to me?
