‘Bravo you sure charmed her champ’. Remus huffs at me as Saige disappears, glancing back at me like I am absolutely crazy.
I let out a deep sigh. ‘She is different and she makes me …’.
‘Act like a teenager ? Say dumb stuff ? Humiliate us ?’ My wolf suggest. ‘Tell me if I am close’.
‘Actually you are not so far off’. I hate to admit it. ‘She does really make me feel young and dumb … not due to her age, not at all …’.
He makes a sound. ‘No because she makes you act like you are’.
“That didn’t go well”. Nick says looking at me, I can see in his eyes that he feels for me. “Sorry”.
I half roll my eyes, not at him, more at myself and then I sit down. “Nah not exactly … damn winning her over is not gonna be easy”.
“Winning her over ?” This guy, Trent, he isn’t really a friend, but he is from my pack and like a friend of a friend I guess, says. “You don’t really have her to accept to …”.
‘Let me at him’. Remus throws himself against the inside of my skull. ‘I can make him into a she-Wolf in no time”.
I stare him down, hoping he gets the hint. “I am truly hoping you are not suggesting that I force myself on her”.
“No no, of course not”. He holds up his hand. “I mean you don’t need her to accept that you are mates to reject her”.
“Reject her ?” I ask, wondering if everyone else can hear the angry growl or if it is just in my head.
He blinks a couple of times, like he is confused. “Wait, are you not gonna reject her ?”
Remus growls like a rabid dog and I feel my fists ball up by my side. “Why … why would I reject her ?”
“Well she is human”. He says a little hesitantly. “I mean you mate is gonna be the next Luna of our pack”.
‘Is he saying what I think he is saying ?’ Remus growls in my head, almost drowning out my own thoughts.
I breathe in slowly, trying to keep my voice controlled. “Oh and we can’t have a weak human as our Luna, right ?”
“Right”. The guy doesn’t seem to have heard the venom in my voice. “And seriously, you can have any woman you want, you are the future Alpha … and she is kinda old, and fat and …”.
Not another word has time to pass over his lips as I grab him by the shirt and slam him into the wall. “Do never speak about my mate like that again … that is your future Luna, show some respect”.
‘Bite of his face’. Remus growls, as he fights to take over control.
“Maybe I should”. I mumble, then realise I said it out loud. “My Wolf has some pretty good suggestions”.
Nick gets up. “Milo, you are drawing attention”.
I am too agitated to care and I lean closer to the i***t ready to give him a piece of my mind.
A small hand touches my shoulder and my head whips towards it with an annoyed growl only to hear a stern female voice. “Down boy, do not growl at me”.
“Morgan !” I look at her in surprise.
“Now release him”. She says with a nod towards Trent. “Before we have the cops coming”.
I let him go with a huff. “He deserved it though, he spoke badly of Saige …”.
“Thank you, I don’t know what got into him. I …”. Trent starts.
“Sit down and shut up, I have no interest in your jabbering”. She gives him a withering glance.
“Hey girlie … “. He doesn’t get to say another word as she pokes her finger to his forehead making him sit down with a stunned expression, his lips looking like they have been glued together.
*Morgan*
“You are a witch”. That guy, Nick, says after picking his jaw off the floor.
“Bingo and you are a Wolf boy”. I shrug. “We all have our secrets”.
“Wolf man”. He mumbles, then he looks at the annoying guy I silenced. “What did you do to Trent ?”
I look at the man who is trying to pry open his mouth. “I fed his tongue to the cat”.
“What ?” Milo says, as he finally seems to have come to his senses.
“Relax, I just closed his mouth”. I shrug. “I am totally confident I can reverse it … Seemed less violent than eating his face … don’t you think ?”
He looks rather sheepish as he sits down. “Maybe … not sure my Wolf agrees”.
“So …”. I look at him. “Alpha ?”
“Future, yeah”. He says, his eyes measuring me as I sit down on the chair Nick left empty. “White witch ?”
“I guess you would call it that … I am a guardian”. I rest my arms on the table leaning forward. “So … Saige, she is your mate ?”
He nods slowly. “Yeah, she is”.
“Do you plan on accepting her and treating her like she deserves with respect and love ?” I look into his eyes, searching for any sign of lies.
I see nothing but honesty when he answers. “Of course … but she seems … not really positive towards me”.
“Let’s take a walk without the lap dogs”. I stand up. “There are things you need to know about Saige, if you are still determined that you want her as your Luna after, then I will help you”.
He is instantly on his feet. “Guys wait here”.
As I turn to walk away Nick calls out. “Morgan, could you maybe … release Trent ?”
“I could …”. I turn to look. The man looks half in panic and is starting to draw attention to him. “Okay then”.
As I snap my fingers the man tumbles down from the chair, gasping air in through his mouth and with a stuttering voice he mumbles. “Thank you”.
“Never let me hear you speak that way about a woman again”. I turn and walk out, followed by Milo who seems to be snickering to himself.
