“Thank you, Alpha.” They both say at the same time, making me smile. I take Bonnie’s hand and pull her into the guard room while anyone that was out there with us soon follows. We can give them a moment alone, but we still have the cameras in here so we can keep enough of an eye on them to make sure that everything is ok without invading their privacy too much. “This is insane,” I grunt as I take a seat and pull Bonnie onto my lap. She tenses up a little but quickly relaxes and I’m fucking glad for it. I understand that it may take some time for her to always be relaxed around me due to her past, but the fart that she’s trying is more than I could have hoped for so soon.
Warrior Tony
I thank Nick for giving us a few minutes alone and taking everyone with him, then I listen as the hallway empties, but I don’t look at them, I can’t because I can’t take my eyes off my mate. She looks so small and frail and, above all else, she looks scared. While I may not know much about what’s going on, what I do know is that I’m going to find out everything, starting with why she looks scared. Is she scared of me and my pack or something else? She came here to us, so I don’t think she’s scared of us, but maybe she’s regretting coming here now.
As for her being my mate… Well, that has blown my mind. One, because she was my first mate’s little sister and two, well, if I’m being honest, I didn’t think I would get a second chance mate. Yes, they happen, and it appears in this pack that it’s happening a lot but even then, I still never let myself think that I would be lucky enough to have one, and now that I do, my mind feels like it ́s been blown apart. I’m scared and anxious and honestly a little taken aback that it’s Rosie. She can’t be any more than 21…
“I’m sorry.” She looks straight at me as she speaks, her voice so gentle and sweet that it warms my insides up. “Why?” I take another step and take hold of the bars of the cell. “I’m sorry that I came here. I didn’t think about it… I just came here and… and I don’t know what I was expecting… I shouldn’t have… I was alone and scared, and then I found out about you and I just came here without thinking. I’m sorry, I’ll go, and you won’t hear from me again.”
Zero instantly growls when she talks about leaving but I manage to calm him down by threatening to block him out if he doesn’t cool it. I put my attention back on my mate and watch as she breathes heavily, and I’m pretty sure she’s got herself so worked up that she’s having a panic attack or close to
it anyway.
I hold out my hand through the bars of the cell and want to jump for joy when she reaches out and takes my hand. Her skin is so soft and her hands so small that it makes me want to take her into my arms and never let her go while the tingles that run up my arm from the spark of our bond makes everything feel scary as fuck. “Sweetheart, breathe for me. Whatever has happened we will figure it out, ok?” I watch as her breathing eases a little and the smallest of smiles grace her beautiful face.
“Tony, something is off.” Zero’s voice suddenly bounces around in my head as he sounds anxious, which isn’t normal for him. He is rarely anxious. “What’s wrong?” He lets out a small whine, and I’m instantly worried. “Sniff, Tony His short answer is annoying, but I trust him so that’s exactly what I do, and immediately I realize that something isn’t right. After several seconds of sniffing, I figure out what it is and I’m shocked. “It doesn’t change anything, Tony. She is still our mate and I want to keep her. It doesn’t matter to me
This situation has to be hard for him and the fact that straight away he has shown that it doesn’t matter to him just shows how much of a good wolf he is. If I’m being honest, it doesn’t matter to me either, but it’s a bigger deal for Tony than it is for me. I can still have my mate, but he can’t.
“You know, don’t you?” Her angel voice brings me out of my head and the worry on her face hits my heart. “It’s ok, I’ll go. I understand, truly I do.” Is this girl insane? “Yes, I know, but it doesn’t matter. It doesn’t change anything. She gives me a disbelieving look while I hope that the look on my face shows her that I mean every word.
“Tony, I don’t have a wolf. I’m wolfless, I’m only human. I can’t be the wolf that I need to be to become someone’s mate.” I gently pull on her hand, and thankfully she allows me to pull her until she is against the cell bars and just inches away from me. “Rosie, I don’t know what’s going to happen, at least not until we have spoken, but I can tell you that you being wolfless will not have any impact on any decisions mate. I hope you can both understand and believe
- me.
She gives me a bigger smile and I feel relieved when I feel her relax a little more. I don’t know what happened to her or what is going to happen in life and while I never expected another mate and maybe even a little part of me did want another one through the fear of losing her again, looking at Kosic right now, I don’t think I could reject her, and before I even know why she’s herem already pretty sure that I’m going to accept her, that I’m finally going to have a mate. Moon goddess, if we decide to be mates, then I beg you please don’t take another mate from me because I don’t think I could handle of again, and neither could Zero.
