"Mother said you're not going back this weekend." I asked father as I watched him walking towards the kitchen then stopped and looked at me.
"I can't. That's why I'm asking you to go and give something to Byron and those two." Cliff, my father, said as he fished a nut from the bowl on the counter separating the kitchen and the living area.
Dad referring those two as Nic, Alpha Byron's second son, and Curtis, the beta's second son. The two friends always celebrates their birthdays together every year and all the younger pack members were always been looking forward to their birthdays because they always throw a party in the pack house.
I just nodded my head then turned back to the program I was watching but my mind drifted to a certain someone. Thinking he would finally recognize me as my mate made Loki, my wolf, felt excited that he wanted to fly over the pack land right away.
But the thing was, I was in a bad term with my mate ever since. I've known him for having a short temper and I knew it would be a disaster especially if he knew that I am going to be his mate. It was a surprise for me also when the first time Loki reacted and went crazy saying he was our mate when I turned eighteen.
I couldn't accept it. There was no way my mate would be a childish, short temper and having an arrogant aura. I would prefer someone like Nic but we couldn't choose who our mate would be. It would be up to the goddess and even Loki hated the goddess.
Our mate was sixteen when I turned eighteen and I never dared to tell him that he was my mate. No way, but I still couldn't help but feel attached to him even though I never know him personally. I tries to get some information through Nic whenever they goes back to the pack land so I could go also and see him and I was doing it for two straight years.
Though, Loki never said something, I knew he was also longing for his mate and long accepted Romulus. As for me, I used to be annoyed by his rude and childish demeanor but lately, I found it cute and I couldn't deny the desire to take him.
"And I'm using your car so use mine instead." Dad said before turning his back at me.
I just hummed.

I went to the pack early in the morning to avoid the city traffic and I never thought I would stumble with Nic and Curtis on the way to the pack land.
My heart was pounding when I went out of the car after parking and seeing that they also parked beside me and I was holding my breath as I watched Curtis stepped out of the passenger seat and Loki was whispering how cute his annoyed face was.
I walked out first and wondered why the house was dark. Danielle, my younger sister, was the only one living in our house in the pack land because she didn't want to go to a human school. She loves to train in the pack land and she also didn't want to be away with her friends. She's already old anyway.
I knocked on the door because I don't have a key with me and I already notified her that I would be back today but I forgot to tell her the time.
"Dan, wake-" I was cut when my ears caught something coming from the house.
A moan and it was getting heavier by the second making my ears turned red in anger and I didn't meant to kick the door so hard that it cracked and then punched it that it broke.
"Holy f**k!" I heard Danielle screamed and footsteps stumbling from the second floor.
"Duane!" Danielle called as she ran down the front door in her underwear and saw the broken door and the furious me behind the cracks. "What the hell did you do to the door?"
"Don't what the hell me while wearing nothing." I said and kicked the door open, totally destroying the lock.
"I-I was-"
"Having s*x with your lover?"
"Can't I?" She fumed.
"Not under my watch, lady."
"You never told me what time you're going home. We should have done it all night if you did."
"You!" I pointed her and she grinned at me as she walked back upstairs. "Let that pup out before I change my mind and serve him in the table."
"Then I'll have that part." She chuckled and I was holding myself from getting more furious.
I didn't bother to fix the door and went to my room to sleep. I woke up at eleven and prepared our lunch and I went back to my room after eating and decided to continue my research but my mind keeps on drifting to my mate. I couldn't focus on my papers so I stopped and let my mind drifted on its own.
Even Loki started daydreaming together with me making me chuckle. I was going insane.
I did my paper works that night but I barely wrote a paragraph because I could hear the party at the pack house and Curtis was also there. Loki kept on whining how he wanted to go and see his mate that he was trying to kick me out of my consciousness. I groaned as I stood up from the study and gave myself a cold shower then went to bed.

Early Sunday morning when Nic came looking for me asking why I didn't show up to his party and I used my research as an excuse. I knew he didn't bought it but he still accepted my reason and forgave me immediately. He too asked about my mate and I refused to tell him because I wanted Curtis to tell him.
It was late afternoon when I decided to go out and take a break of my papers when I an intoxicating scent suddenly filled my nostrils. The air suddenly filled with the strong scent of vanilla that it was making me dizzy and Loki took that chance to take over my body and ran like crazy, looking for our mate.
We found him also looking for us and Romulus also took over Curtis. He was surprised to see us and even gritted his teeth as he stopped a few meters away from us. It was turning us on even more, seeing him acting like that.
"Mate." Loki grinned as he advanced to Romulus leaving no time for our mate to ran as Loki grabbed the collar of his shirt and pulled him for a wild, forceful and full of resistance kiss and Loki was enjoying it that he got to bit out mate's lips a few times.
