MY NERD MATE

CHAPTER 4: MYSTERIOUS BEAUTY

Lex’s POV

Just when the rascal shifted, ran at an insanely fast pace and proceeded to pounce at us to kill us both, that is when I saw her.

A dangerous beauty.

Yes that is what she was.

A dangerous beauty- full of mystery and grace.

A majestic, black she wolf- an Alpha no doubt, with a white star shaped patch on her forehead, howled and gracefully leaped to intercept the attack successfully.

While I looked at her fight the cunning, old devil effortlessly and smoothly, spellbound, Rowland managed to break free from the binding ropes.

“Hey ! What the f**k do you think are you doing ?”, I growled at my Beta when he tried to open my binds. “You are blocking the view !! Move that gigantic, dumb ass of yours out of my sight”, I ordered while trying to look around him, not willing to miss even one sec of witnessing the most beautiful scene of the century.

“What the eff has suddenly gone wrong with you, Lex ?! You have been so distracted lately and making mistakes for the first time in your life ! Get a hold of yourself, man”, Rowland urged before he shifted too and helped the mysterious beauty to subdue the notorious enemy camp,  although she had everything pretty much in control herself.

Unbelievable.

She was not only beautiful but an amazing fighter.

Suddenly, an unknown brown Beta wolf came in sight and before I could shift to help and protect the jet black sss from the rogue army, the newcomer was already wrecking havoc amongst the ranks of our enemy and working in remarkable sync with the powerful Alpha wolf.

He was no doubt her Beta.

“If His Majesty is done ogling her, could he kindly take the pain of shifting for a moment and helping us clean the mess that YOU brewed in the first place”, Rowland’s sarcastic taunt wired through the mindlink.

“Not until the next ice age, pal”, I answered back with a smirk as I watched the magnificent beauty kick away three rogue wolves in a circle.

“Lex, I swear to god, I will- …. ”

“WATCH OUT, ROW !”, I suddenly shouted before bursting into my dark blue Alpha wolf form and jumping towards the sly and injured Rogue King behind Rowland.

I was way more sensitive to my surroundings than others due to the rigorous Alpha training I had gone through since my mother’s death.

My mother’s death.

Her horrible, horrible death.

The death that twisted my gut and stabbed my heart again and again, whenever reminded of it.

Reminded of the manner of my mother’s death again, rage coursed through my blood like a bubbling volcano and soon enough, I was wading in a bloodbath of rogue blood after tearing off the sly Rogue King’s neck.

The satisfaction of killing him tortuously myself was unexplainable as peace washed over me but in the middle of the war and in my fury, I had lost her. The mysterious black beauty.

I lost her to never find her again until much, much later ….

Joy’s POV

“How careless can you be, Joy ?”, my Beta scolded me through the mindlink after he shifted and entangled my wolf’s leg from the enchanted, prickly vine at the rogues’ pack border, or rather ex-rogues pack border.

I had already been careless enough to jump into a fight which was obviously not mine and here I was making another reckless mistake.

I blamed this solely on one wolf.

Lex.

Lex, was the reason I forgot about the enchanted pack border and got tangled into this stupid vine as he occupied all real estate in my mind.

Dante was right. Lex was gorgeous, scratch that he was ultra gorgeous.

He had the most perfect jaw and face structure that I had ever seen while husky golden waves of messy, short hair framed his sun kissed face.

Deep and dark brown eyes held a special enigma in them while his plump pink, kissable lips looked like they were begging to be touched, caressed and loved. I won’t have minded giving them that kind of attention.

And above all, his body ! He had a body of a Greek God ! The one which was built like a warriors and showed enough scars to show his bravery.

Oh gracious.

He was the epitome of perfection and beauty.

The Moon Goddess surely spared a lot of time in creating such a gorgeous specimen.

I had never seen a dark blue wolf before and when Lex had shifted into one, it took immense self control from years of training to not let my focus wander in the middle of the war. I swear I had felt like tackling him instead of the stupid rogue wolves in front of me at one point.

For the first time in my life, another wolf had managed to make my heart pound like a machine gun gone out of control, in my chest.

Rat-a-tat-tat, my heart beat wildly just by thinking about him- about Lex.

I guess I was already falling for him but how was I to know what a douchebag he was going to turn out to be !

A f*****g rotten one !!

“His mother”, Dante broke my train of thoughts. Huh ? “He was taking revenge for the death of his mother. The former Luna died while trying to save him from the Rogue King. No wonder he was so reckless at first and then acting like a bloodhound gone crazy”, he shivered at the mere thought of the scene we had just witnessed. “He was so agile and strong though”, he drooled.

What the hell ?!

“Hmm. Whatev”, I feigned nonchalance, making my beta roll his eyes.

“You like him. Admit it”, he exasperately said.

“No, I don’t !”, I quickly denied. Too quickly in fact, that it sounded suspicious to my own ears.

“For an Alpha, your lying skills surely suck”, Dante huffed before shifting back.

“Yeah right, coz if lying was a job then I know you would be a billionaire”, I retorted back before shifting too.

My Beta ofcourse growled at me bemused, making me inwardly roll my eyes as his wolf bared his teeth at me.

Why didn’t Betas follow Rule #101 ?

Respect your f*****g Alphas !!

Ughh.
