SWNOVELS Chapter 13: Like, comment, and subscribe
Last night, Reva couldn't sleep a wink, not because she didn't want to but because the fact that
finally meeting her mate couldn't let her sleep. However, Ethlyn and Christian warned her that this
was just a possibility, not sure, but her wolf was positive about it.
“Moon Goddess, I always wanted like dad. Please consider my prayer.’ She prayed. Just like Ethlyn had told her, with each passing minute, her restlessness and excitement were increasing. She couldn't help herself and sneaked out of her house to reach the pack border and thought to wait for him there by patrolling the border with other warriors even though her duty wasn't aligned to do. Finally, after waiting for hours, she smelt the mouthwatering scent, signaling that her mate was near. She was on edge to see him, a part of her wanted to run out and meet him quickly, but somehow, she held her wolf, who was letting her sit quietly. She already sensed that they were six people, out of which one smelt different, a girly one.
“Why the hell are they all walking instead of running in wolf form?’ She wondered in irritation. After half an hour, her eyes landed on the person for whom she had been waiting for a long, and she was taken aback to see a girl of four-five years in his arms.
“MATE’ Her wolf howled in joy. She didn’t miss the surprised look on her mate's well, as if he wasn't expecting her here.
“Wasn't he here in searching for his mate?’ She thought and looked at the girl in his arms. “Don't tell me that she is her adopted daddy or something because she doesn't smell like him for sure. What if he already chose someone as his mate, and this girl is the pup of his chosen mate from someone else?” A lot of questions started going on in her mind looking at them.
“Hello, I'm John Reeves, Beta of Wind Winder Pack.” The young introduced himself. “Alpha Nathan asked me to attend to you all and take you to the guest house of the pack.”
“Hello, I'm Zordan Collin, Beta of Blood Moon Pack,” Zordan responded, not removing from Reva. It was a fake plan to come here, to this pack, in search of his mate, but he really found her mate here. He was surprised and shocked at this fact.
“I didn’t know you all were coming with a pup here, Beta Zordan,” John said, looking at the Roselet, who was sleeping peacefully. “Now, I can understand why you all were walking instead of running in wolf. Who is this cute girl? Your daughter.” He asked in a low tone so that Roselet wouldn't wake. Zordan wanted to answer this question immediately and come clean in front of his mate, who was also waiting for the answer to this question.
“Daddy,” Roselet mumbled in her sleep, rubbing her face in Zordan’s neck.
"Oh, she is your daughter,” John said, and all of a sudden, Reva didn't wait for a second after hearing this and ran away from there, feeling angry and hurt at the same time.
“What the fuck!" Zordan cursed at the wrong timing. He recalled the story of his father when his mother, Joanna, assumed his father, Bruce Henry Collin as the father of Colton and Calvin when he was taking them to the park, carrying them in his arms, and a generation after, just because he was carrying Calvin's daughter, his mate assumed him as the father of Roselet.
Zordan just couldn't run behind his mate to explain everything, not now, at least. Roselet wasn't just Calvin's princess, but she was the princess of the whole pack, and he just couldn't start running, ruining his princess's sleep.
Zordan caressed her back and replied, “She is like my daughter, my niece. She wanted to accompany me, and I just couldn't say her NO.” Of course, he couldn't say her NO. The truth was that this plan was prepared for her.
“Oh, I'm sorry!! You all must be tired. Come on; I will show the guest house.” John said, smiling at them.
“By the way, who was she?” Lemieux asked, observing everything silently between the Beta and the she-wolf through their eyes.
“She is the younger daughter of the former Beta of the pack, Reva Smith. And by observing everything, I guess, we all know why she was here and for whom.” John joked to enlighten the atmosphere. Zordan didn't react to it because he was carrying Roselet, but he did recognize the surname and the fact that the woman who was his fate was none other than the sister of Roselet's mommy.
“Now, Beta Zordan doesn't have to search for his mate in the whole pack because now he already knows who she is.” John kept speaking while taking them toward the guest house. “I will inform Alpha about it and then take Beta Zordan to former Beta Christian's house on my own, but I guess you all need rest for at least four to five hours, especially the little girl who is sleeping uncomfortably in your arms.”
After a walk of ten minutes, they reached at guest house. John allotted them their room and left from there. Zordan placed Roselet on the bed and covered her with the blanket, and mind linked about the same to Calvin who couldn't sleep last night without his love.
"You can sleep now, Mate. I have placed her on the bed, and she is sleeping comfortably now.’ He informed.
“It's time for training already.’ Calvin replied, leaving Roselet's room. He stayed in her room last night and tried to sleep hugging her big teddy bear still nothing could give him his princess's vibe. 'Zordy, I know I don't need to repeat again and again but take care of her.’
“Don’t worry, Mate.’
“Bye now. I reached the training ground.’
“Did you tell Alpha about you finding your mate for real?” Lemieux asked, looking at Zordan when he disconnected the mind link.
“I thought to inform my Alpha about it, but when I mind-linked him, I met with a worried father who couldn't sleep last night. I will inform him later when his father mode will be off.” Zordan replied. “He loves Rose a lot."
“Even Rose loves him a lot,” Zordan said with a smile. “There was a time Calvin couldn't keep his hand off from any woman, but I haven't seen him with any woman from the night Rose landed in our pack. At first, he wanted to... but at that time, Rose needed a lot of attention, so he couldn't manage the time, but when she started growing old when Calvin could spend time with a woman by leaving her with Nelina. Calvin had already transformed from a casanova to a family man. Instead of buying condoms, he had started buying story books for nights.”
Lemieux smiled listening to this; he had joined the pack three years back when his parents kicked him out of the pack just because he revealed to them that he was interested in men instead of women. But Calvin didn’t mind taking him in his pack, and it had been two years since he was handling the position of Roselet's bodyguard.
"Anyway, Go and sleep in her room,” Zordan said, yawning.
"Okay, Beta.” Lemieux walked into Roselet's room and observed her sleeping peacefully. All of a sudden, he shifted into a big wolf and lay on the floor in alert mode.
A few hours later!!
“Can someone help me in getting ready?” Roselet asked, looking at her all five uncles.
“Ready? But I have already kept your blue frock and all the matching things related to it.” Zordan said, recalling the tips that he had received from Calvin.
“Men,” Roselet muttered in a duh tone and left from there.
“Lemi, see what kind of READY she is talking about,” Zordan said, on which Lemieux's eyes widened. “I'm her bodyguard, not her makeup artist,” Lemieux responded. “But we all can help her in getting ready, right?”
“Yeah! It's not that she uses makeup or something. Also, she is not that old. Three of us have seen from the days of diapers.” Asher said. And after talking for a while, they all reached Roselet's room and found her struggling with zip in the back of the frock. Zordan was first to reach near her and closed her zip. Lemieux handled the hair department.
While the rest of the three check the other help that they could offer by reading her baby products or with her matching footwear.
It took them more than an hour to help her in getting ready by trying different styles, which didn’t work out. In the end, Roselet decided to keep her hair open and use her butterfly clips.
“How do I look?” She asked after checking herself in the mirror
“Beautiful, pretty, cute, lovely, fantastic!”
“You all should take classes from Calvin. He gets me ready in just fifteen minutes.” She said, taking Calvin's name for the nth number of times. “He even knows various types of hairstyle. I miss him. He should have been here.” She added, feeling sad.
“Rose, a princess doesn't divert her mind from her mission. Keep focus and remember why you are here!”
“To meet mommy."
“Right! Let's go now, Alpha Nathan is waiting for us, and you do remember that you don't have to lie. Divert the question when required.” Zordan said to which she nodded her head. He leaned down to pick her up when she smacked his chest.
“I'm not a baby. I can walk.”
“Her “BABY’ word shifts from time to time according to her convenience.” Lemieux joked.
“True.”
“So, did you meet your mate?” Ethlyn asked, knowing very well that she sneaked out of home last night and came late in the morning.
“I saw him,” Reva replied, eating breakfast for the second time. “He has a baby, maybe adopted, and who knows that he is marked as well and came here in search of his friend's mate.” She mumbled and took a big bite.
"Okay! Hold on!" Ethlyn thought to talk about everything because she was getting confused. “As per my information, Beta of Blood Moon Pack was coming here in search of his mate. I don't know about his friend or anyone else who accompanied him. So, who is your mate exactly? That Beta or some of his friends?”
“Gordon Collin...” She replied by munching food in her mouth. She quickly gulped it and spoke again, “Zordan Collin, Beta of that pack.”
"So, he doesn’t have a mate. RELAX.” Ethlyn said.
“But he does have an adopted daughter.” Reva pointed out.
"How can you say that? Did you talk about it with him? Huh.” Ethlyn asked, slapping Reva’s head, who was whining over nonsense things.
“I heard his daughter speaking. She called him “Daddy."” Reva replied. “I don't want to be a mommy of any pup. At least, of not pup, which is not mine. I dont want to be in such a relationship whether I will be the second priority of my fated mate.”
“Then reject him.” Their heads turned toward the voice, and they saw Abigail standing there. “What?” Reva was taken aback at her mother's words.
“Reject him. Simple as that.” Abigail said sternly. “You can have a way better option than him.”
“Like, comment, and subscribe to ABIGAIL SMITH for ruining your bond before it even started.” Ethlyn said to Reva and left from there.”
“Ethlyn! Ethlyn...” Abigail yelled, but Ethlyn ignored her and walked out of the house. She wanted to check this situation with her own eyes. She knew that her father was asked to visit Nathan's place regarding the same thing, so she went there.
