chapter 20

2419 Words
Updated. May’s P.O.V After we had got back into the main house or what I now knew was called the pack house we went straight to an office and I assumed it was Hope and Rune’s office as they were the leaders or rather Alpha and Luna of the pack. It still confused me a little and it would take me a while to get the terms and names right of certain things, but I didn’t mind as this was one massive learning process. Hope sat down on the couch in the office and gestured for me to sit next to her, which I gladly did. “I know that this is a lot for you to take in and you have to be curious about so many things now, but there are rules to living in a pack and also being mated to a werecat. The first of which is that you can’t tell any humans about us, not ever. There are hunters out there that would love to kill one if not all of us and that also includes werewolves and werebears as well. Hunters are just humans, but you never know when you could be talking to one or what their true intentions are, so you have to go on living your life as you normally would, but you have to pretend that you know nothing about the supernatural world. If anyone asks then just look at them like they are crazy and ask what the hell they are talking about. I know that it won’t be easy, but you need to do it in order to not only keep our secret safe, but all of us safe too.” Hope said and I quickly nodded, knowing exactly what she meant from what I had read online. I didn’t want anything to happen to any of them and I wanted to keep them all safe because this was my family now, even that little skank who hit me earlier and I would be damned if I let anything happen to any of them. Nothing or no one was going to hurt any of them while I was with Erick. “I understand and I promise that I won’t tell a single soul about you and what you are.” I replied and Hope smiled at me. “Thank you. Right then it’s getting late and I’m assuming that you are going back home tonight as you haven’t bought a change of clothes with you.” Hope said and I laughed a little while nodding. “Yes, I think I have had enough excitement for today and I would like time to process everything that has happened, what I’ve been told and seen.” I said, looking at Erick who was still grinning like a Cheshire cat. I stood up and both Hope and Rune hugged me goodbye, as Erick held the door open for me. We left the pack house and got into Erick’s car, leaving the excitement and heading to my home. s**t, my home, what happens to that now? It's not on Erick’s land, but maybe it could be and I could still keep it, after all it was my house and I had put a lot of hard work into it, so I wasn’t going to give it up. We reached my house in a few minutes and got out of the car, heading up the steps to my house, but I knew I had to ask him about it, I couldn’t stop thinking about it and it was going to play on my mind until I knew for sure. “Erick, what about my house? It’s mine and I don’t want to give it up, so maybe we could put my house onto your land? I know it's small compared to the pack house and the other houses on your land, but maybe we could make it bigger. We could live in it and make it ours.” I asked, hoping that he would say yes to one of my suggestions. I watched as he smiled at me, but then his eyes kinda went foggy, like they were clouded over or something. Erick’s P.O.V I didn’t want May to give up her house, especially when I saw how much this meant to her, so I decided that the best thing to do was to ask my dad, after all he was the Alpha and what he and mom said goes. “Hey dad, I know that this is a strange question, but could we move May’s house onto our territory? It’s not far from the border of our land and I know that she doesn’t want to give it up.” I asked, mind-linking my dad. “I don’t see a reason why we couldn’t do it, in fact I think it's a good idea, but it's going to take a bit of work to get it done.” My dad replied, mind-linking me back after a few seconds and I smiled internally that he had agreed. “Do you think we could do it tomorrow while May is at work?” I asked, hoping that he would say yes. I wanted to do this for her, especially after how accepting she had been. “Yes, I suppose we could. I mean we would have to have the water, gas and electric turned off first, then we would have to dig up the foundation and the pipes to make sure that nothing breaks. We will need to get a crane as well and a huge truck in order to be able to get the house over onto our territory. We could do it, but it will take some time to settle the house, so just let her know.” My dad replied and ended the link. He was probably going to get on this straight away, which made me happy because I knew that it would make my mate happy. I looked back at May to see that she was giving me a worried and curious look, which confused me. “Are you okay?” I asked, but she shook her head. “I am, but are you? What was wrong with your eyes then? They were foggy or clouded over or something.” May asked, making me chuckle. I couldn’t remember if I had explained mind-linking to her or not, so that explained why she looked worried. “Sorry, it's called mind-linking, kinda like talking to someone using only your mind. I was just talking to my dad in my head and since I marked you I can talk to you like that as well. Here, watch my lips and listen.” I replied, letting my eyes glaze over as I started focusing on what I wanted to do. “Hey there, beautiful.” I said, mind-linking her. My eyes came back to normal and I saw that May’s eyes had widened to the size of saucers, but she was smiling widely at me which made me relieved. “I heard you, in my head I heard you speaking and you didn’t even open your mouth. That is just so crazy and cool at the same time. Can I do it? How do I do it?” May asked, making me laugh at how excited she was, but then I realised I was going to have to let her down. “Well honey, you have to be like us and that right there I know that you’re not ready for.” I replied and May sighed but shook her head. “I don’t want to be supernatural, I’m happy just being the way that I am.” May said and I nodded. “I understand and I won’t try to change your mind.” I replied, causing her to smile again. “Come on, let’s get some rest, you have work tomorrow and I have a house to move, but I promise it will be moved by the time you finish work.” I said and her eyes lit up. “Really? We can do this. We can move it tomorrow, oh my god that’s incredible, thank you so much.” May excitedly said, jumping up and down, but I quickly shook my head to let her know there was more to this. “Yes, we can, but dad said that it's going to take some time for the house to settle, so we will be staying in the pack house until it’s done.” I said as we walked into the house. May and I had been talking about this for a few minutes and the whole time we had been standing on her front porch. “Oh goody, we can be in the same house with the skanks.” May said, rolling her eyes and making me laugh. I quickly scooped her up in my arms and carried her to the bedroom, wanting nothing more than to spend time with my mate. Scott’s P.O.V I hadn’t seen Angie for a few days and it was making me question whether or not she had backed out of the deal we made. Angie was supposed to go to May and tell her all about Erick and the supernatural, which in turn would cause May to be angry and then she would drop Erick like a bad habit for lying to her, but my guess was that it wasn’t going to happen that way now. I had tried linking her to see what was going on, but she had her block up and I couldn’t get through. I guess I have to do this on my own now, but the only way I can think of to do it is to wait until she is alone and then just grab her up. If they want her back then they will just have to give up their pack and money, then it will all be mine and by the time I am done with them May won’t want to go back to Erick. This was a good solid plan, but I would need Angie, so maybe if I try linking her one more time I’ll be able to get through to her. “Angie, where are you? I have been looking for you for a few days now and you haven’t been in your room. What’s going on? You have two minutes to link me back, if you don’t then goddess help you because I will rip you apart when I find you.” I said, mind-linking her. I waited a few minutes, hoping that I had managed to get through this time and then suddenly I felt her link coming through. “If you would have waited for a few more days then I would have linked you back, but to be honest the deal is off. May is a cool girl, man and you don’t need to turn her into something like you. I have already warned her about you and I am now in a new pack, so if you do hunt me down and find me then it won’t be pretty because this pack are the protectors of the werecats and that makes me one of them as well. Just give up and find another hobby to do because you are never going to get her. I’m going to block you now, but just to let you know I opened my mind up so that everyone could hear what you just said, so now you’re the one in danger. Have fun looking over your shoulder, goodbye.” Angie replied, mind-linking me back, but then she ended the link and blocked me again. “THAT f*****g b***h BETRAYED ME!! ME!! I SWEAR WHEN I FIND OUT WHAT f*****g PACK SHE IS IN I’M GOING TO BURN THEIR HOUSES DOWN AND MAKE HER WATCH BEFORE I BREAK HER f*****g NECK!!! NO ONE f*****g BETRAYS ME AND GETS AWAY WITH IT!!! SHE BELONGS TO ME AND I WILL HAVE HER NO MATTER WHAT!!!” I screamed out, pissed off with not getting what I wanted. May’s P.O.V I went to work the next day as usual, but when I got there Walter instantly pulled into the office, where Susan and Angie were waiting. I was confused and worried about what was going on, but then they began to tell me what was said with the link thingy between Angie and this mad man, Scott, that was after me. “He is determined to get you, May, so be careful, okay.” Walter said and I nodded.the whole time they were talking I couldn’t help wondering what Walter and Susan were. I mean I knew that Angie was a werewolf because she had told me when we first met, but were Susan and Walter the same? “I’m sorry, I don’t mean to be rude, but what are you two? I mean are you werewolves, werecats or….oh what are they called….werebears? Sorry, I was just wondering.” I asked, but they both just smiled at me. “No need to apologise, you can wonder all you want. We are werewolves, which are different from your mate and his pack of werecats. We can also shift and we mark our mates, but we go to war more often than they do. We have to defend our territory from rogues all the time or if one of them wants our mate. We have to be careful with that because they are sneaky and they will try to snatch them up without you even knowing.” Walter replied and I nodded. “You mentioned that word before, rogues. What are rogues?” I asked, still getting to know the different terms. “They are nasty creatures that are mostly criminals. They are wolves, cats and bears that have either been thrown out of their pack for committing a crime or have left willingly due to something bad happening or if they feared for their own safety, but because they have no pack they often turn to crime to survive and it leads them to be brutal in their ways if they don't find another pack to be in. They smell horrible, like rotten eggs, rancid milk and death. They love causing trouble and are often trying to get someone's mate, territory or pack. You need to stay away from them.” Susan replied, shuddering. s**t, they must be really horrible to make her shudder like that.
