Chapter 36
Aderyn Pov
I sat there staring at him as if he had horns attached to his head. What he told me just now didn't go well with my mind.
"What?" was what I managed to utter. Then I cleared my throat and looked here and there. "Sorry? What did you just say? I didn't get you” I asked again thinking maybe I heard him wrong. He looked calm and had an knowing expression on his face as if he knew I was going to react this way.
He gave me a small smile and once again I found him trailing his finger on my foot sending shiver down my spine.
“I know you can feel these tingles whenever I touch you. This is the mate bond and this is the proof that you are my mate” he told me as he continued trailing his finger on my foot.
I shook my head and withdrew my leg away from his hold and sat straight.
“This is impossible. I am not your mate. I am a human for god sake!” I threw my hands up in the air. “Well you are my mate. Of course my human mate” he told me as he leaned back on his seat and smiled at me.
I was shocked as well as surprised.
Damn. I could have get all this long back if only I hadn't ignored the simple simple things.
Like people calling me Luna.
Like the way I felt whenever he touched me.
Like the way ... urg
This is all my fault.
“I know you what must be thinking. But let me get this clear to you. You are my mate and the Luna to all those werewolves. I came here to take you back. Lets go home” he said and I gave him a look. "Home?" I spoke as I looked at him incredulously.
“Well this is my home. I am not going anywhere. You are going. Look I might be your mate but do you think I am even capable of doing my duty when I am just a simple human. For god sake I used to think this all stuffs exists only in stories and all but one day I find it all true and real, before my eyes. How the hell do you expect me to react knowing that you all exists and the most importantly out of nowhere I am your mate and a Luna to all those werewolves. No way, I am not gonna do this. I am happy here. As my life is. I will not go anywhere. So pack your stuffs and leave” I knew I was harsh.
I watched him seating there comfortably listening to all my rantings. Then he spoke “Ofcourse You are Aderyn after all. And here I thought you would be happy knowing all this” it came out in a sarcastic way.
Before I could open my mouth to reply him. His phone began to ring. He took it out and excused himself getting up from his seat and walking near the staircase talking on his phone.
"Huh Mate my ass” I muttered as I crossed my arms across my chest and leaned back against my seat still processing it all in my mind.
I am not his mate.
“Sure you are not” and my irritating inner voice was back.
"Oh Shut up” I snapped at her.
“Ofcourse” she talked back.
“l am not his mate” I told her.
"Oh really?” She mocked.
"Oh shut up already” I snapped and looked up to find Dylan giving me a weird look.
"Whom are you talking with?” He asked confused.
I found my cheeks burning and I composed myself saying “Nobody.”
He nodded and shoved his hands into his pant pockets.
“So?” He asked.
“So what?" I asked
"When are you packing your stuffs?” He asked looking at me in a neutral face.
"For what?” I asked furrowing my eyebrows.
“Uh You are shifting back to my place. Back to the pack house" he said and my eyes widened in shock.
“What?”
"Woahhh!! Easy man when did we decide this? And who you told you that I will leaving my home?” I questioned as I stood on my legs and winced a little when my foot touched the ground. Immediately Dylan was before me holding my arm, supporting me, giving me a worried look.
“Uh I'm Okay” I said feeling little weird. Nobody cared for me before.
"And I am not going anywhere” and I was back to arguing.
He rolled his eyes at me and shoved his hands into his pant pockets while I walked sidestepping him towards the table to drink some water.
“Pack your bags before 3 Pm. We will be leaving sharp at 3” he told me ignoring my argument. “Do you not hear me?” I snapped
“I said I am not leaving. This is my house and I am not going anywhere. I don't care mate or not but I am not going anywhere and that's final” I said as I poured some water into the glass from the jug and gulped it down my throat in one gulp.
I looked towards him to find him opening his mouth probably to say something but he stopped closing his mouth and sniffing the air.
"What are yo-" I was cut off by the door bell.
I gave him a look and then walked towards the door.
As Soon as I opened it I was engulfed into a tight bone breaking hug.
"Aderyn! Aderyn! Aderyn!” the person screamed in happiness as he crushed me even more. "Ge-George let me go” I managed to speak though I felt I was going to die anytime soon.
But Suddenly I was like snatched away by an arm which wrapped around my waist and I was lifted up and then put down behind a muscular back and the next moment I could see George hanging up in the air by his collar.
“Mine!”
“How dare you touch whats mine?”
“Mine!”
“She is Mine"
I was shocked as well as flabbergasted seeing Dylan like this. He looked beyond angry and his body looked tensed. His voice was mixed with a beast like tone as well as anger.
“Dy-Dylan what are doing? Put him down” I found my voice and soon I was trying to set George free from Dylan.
"Ade-Ader-y-n" George coughed hanging in the air.
“Dylan put him down. You are going to kill him” I tried again holding his arm trying to let him loosen his hold on George but it was as if my efforts were nothing before him.
I couldn't even move a single muscle of his arm.
“Dylan let him go” I even punched his arm.
“Mine!” He growled tightening his grip on George's collar.
"Wrap your arm around him. Make him Relax" I heard Greta running toward us.
“I what?" I asked confused.
“Make him Relax. Wrap your arms around him” she urged me to do it.
"What? No way!" I told her. In no way I was going to do that.
"Ade-ry-n help me” George managed to speak begging me.
“Do it!" Greta forced.
“No way! Dylan put him down” I snapped.
“He will not listen to anything. He is angry because another male touched his mate before him. If you do not hurry he is going to choke him” Greta looked panicked and her panicking face worried me.
"So just do it” she urged me.
"Okay Fine! I am doing it" I said and looked towards Dylan who was still choking George.
"Oh God!" I whispered to myself and reluctantly put my arms around his chest.
“Dylan let him go” I said slowly and started to rub my palms on his raging chest. I was really surprised because soon he was slowly putting George down on his feet but he didn't loosen his grip.
“Dylan leave him” I spoke into his ears standing on my tip toes due to height difference which I am hating the most right now. I couldn't reach his ear still after standing on my toes.
“Mine!” He growled tightening his grip on George's collar.
“Dy-Dylan leave him” I spoke urgently seeing his grip tightening on his collar. So I tightened my hold onto his chest and rubbed my palms even more in a soothing way.
“Let him go Dylan” I whispered and this time he let him go.
George stumbled and fell back on his butt on the floor coughing vigorously.
"Oh dear!” Greta was immediately by his side helping him.
I sighed as I loosened my arms around Dylan but as if he didn't like it he took hold of my hand and pulled me before him.
“Dylan!” I screamed and in a instant my heart stammered and it began to beat wildly against my chest as I acknowledged the foreign feelings inside me.
He took hold of me and nuzzled his face inside the crook of my neck making my heart beat rise even more.
"Dy-Dylan what are you doing” I felt my cheeks getting hot and I tried to push him away but I stopped more like freeze when he bit down on the skin of my neck. It wasn't painful but the mere touch of his teeth did something miserable to my body.
I lost my control on my body as I felt tingles forming on that place where he bit down. My whole body was on fire and I cursed internally because whatever I was feeling right now was utterly new to me and somehow I was liking it when I wasn't suppose to.
“Mine!” He whispered and sniffed my hair.
My body scent was somehow calming him. His hold on my waist tightened as he pulled me incredibly closer to him. I was sure my cheeks would have been redder like a tomato right now but I was too shocked to even comprehend what was even happening in my surroundings.
I laughed nervously and gaining my senses I tried to push him away.
“Dylan!” I called when I felt his hold tightening.
“Dylan!” I snapped when he didn’t even budge
“Dylan?” I called again and this time his hold loosened around me and he let me go. I watched as his eyes turned back to its original color and the anger subsided and that animal like feature subsided gaining its human feature.
I loved his eyes.
He stared down at me and I stood frozen, hypnotized by his orbs.
"Aderyn?” George's voice broke our eye contact and I was quick in getting myself away from him. I took few steps away from him and faced George who was looking Dylan with fearful eyes.
“I will be in your room” Dylan spoke and turned around to leave when I just nodded my head without even looking towards his direction.
Somehow I was feeling Shy?
However, for the last time I glanced his way only to find him glaring at George as if warning him to stay away from me.
George visibly gulped and Dylan walked back towards the room leaving us alone.
“Who is he? Is he your boyfriend? Is he a fighter too?” and I was bombarded with questions.
Greta shook her head and walked back towards the Kitchen while I escorted George towards the living room
“No he is not a fighter” I said as I sat down on the sofa and ignored his previous question.
"What? You are lying. Didn't you see how strong he was? He freaking hanged me into air just by lifting me as if I weighted a feather” he scoffed at me when I smiled.
“No he doesn't fight. Just Gyming and all” I said and tried to change the topic.
"Anyways so what made you pay me a visit?” I asked and watched as his expression changed into a happy one.
"Oh I have a good news for you" he chirped.
“Is that so?" I asked to which he nodded.
“Well what is it then?”
“I have a proposal for you”
"Hmm" I hummed listening to him.
“We want to hire you as our fighter coach”
“What?”
"Yes. We want you to coach our international fighters”
“Uh me? But I thought that spot was for male fighters” I reasoned to which he scoffed.
“Uh C'mon Aderyn. Male fighters? We all saw what a female fighter could do back that day when she won the match against men” he said as he adjusted his jacket.
“Ummm” I thought.
Was I interested?
"So what is your answer? Don't worry about the money. You will paid handsomely. Just say yes to this” he looked excited
“Umm I don't know. I never thought about it. I have other plans actually” I said. I was sure I didn't want to get back into that world again.
"Oh no! Don't say like that Aderyn” his face fell and I gave him a small smile.
"Okay I will give you some time to think. Think about it Aderyn because you could be the youngest Coach in history who will be training International level fighters. You will get famous and rich plus you will get chances to tour around the world”
I nodded taking in his words. But somehow I wasn't interested. I never thought about that. I just want a peaceful life.
"Hmm I will think about it” I replied and he gave me a small smile.
"Alright then. Think as much as you want. I will be waiting. But I hope you give me a positive reply” his eyes shone with hope and I gave him a small smile.
"Okay I gotta leave now. I am flying off to Barcelona today. So need to pack my things” he said as he stood up and I followed his action.
“So soon? Why don't you join me for lunch” I said to which he shooked his head negatively.
“No thank you. I have already done my lunch and I just want to get away as soon as possible because” he looked back towards the room where Dylan went.
“I am literally afraid of your boyfriend” he said and a small laugh cracked out of my mouth.
“Don't tell anyone” he said in a whisper and I laughed nodding.
"Yeah Okay!"
"Okay Gotta go”
"Yeah! Bye”
“I will call you regarding your answer” he said while I opened the door for him.
"Okay!" I said and waved him a little after saying our Goodbyes.
“Go Pack!” I heard Dylan standing in the living room with a void expression.
“Urgh Not again” I snapped as I walked angrily back to my room.
I am not going anywhere.
