Chapter 34 a warm bath

Brandon’s P.O.V

  When I heard him speak to her like that I was pissed off, but then she looked at me and I stayed silent, not knowing what she wanted me to say to her. She handled herself and the situation just fine, but then when she was leaving she glared daggers at me and if looks could kill I would be six foot under right now. Why did she look at me like that? What did I do wrong? Why was she so pissed off with me? I know I’m not her boss, I’m her mate.

  “Yeah, but you didn't correct him like you should have, instead you said nothing at all and now our mate thinks you don't want her or that you think the same as this dumbass.” Brooks said, mind-linking me. s**t, my wolf was right, I should have spoken up and told him that she was my mate, but I really didn't think. Natt handed me a huge envelope full of cash and I counted it. Every bit of it was there, so I nodded to the guard to escort him off my territory.

  “Next time you come here without calling, I’ll let my warriors take care of you. Never come here without calling, is that clear?” I said, getting right in his face and elongating my fangs, baring them at him. I let him know who the Alpha was here, but then I could feel his fear and it made me smirk.

  “Now leave before I change my mind.” I said, pushing him towards my guard. My guard grabbed his arm and began to escort him off the territory. I turned to face the pack house and sighed, knowing I would have to fix this and fast.

  Carla’s P.O.V

  After I left Brandon with his stupid business thing I went straight to Brandon’s bedroom and into the bathroom. I still called it either Brandon’s room or the bedroom because I still didn't feel comfortable calling it our room, especially after what just happened. Every time I got close to calling it our room or thought about staying, Brandon did something like earlier that would immediately change my mind, making me think that he didn't want me here, let alone wanted to be with me. All I wanted to do was take a long hot bath, without any interruptions. 

  “I’m taking a long hot bath, I just want to relax.” I said, mind-linking Brandon and then ended the link before he could reply. Hopefully he would get the message that I didn't want to be disturbed. I ran my bath and took my clothes off, getting into the hot water once it was filled up. The hot water started to calm me down as I laid my head back, letting the steam from the water relax me even more. I still had a lot to think about, like the next fight, then the two more after that and after all of that I would have to make my mind up about staying here one way or another. Yeah, I admit I can be a b***h at times, but I’m not going to let anyone bully me, but I also don't want someone that won't stand up for me either. I must have fallen asleep at some point and woke up to the feeling of someone running their fingers through my hair. I blinked a few times as I saw Brandon sitting on the tub beside me.

  “Hey sleepy head, are you hungry? You’ve been up here for a few hours now and the water has gone cold. I guess you fell asleep.” Brandon said, looking right at me.

  “I guess I did.” I coldly replied, not really wanting to talk to him. I was still angry about what he did or rather didn't do earlier. I got out of the tub and grabbed a towel, but then Brandon helped me dry off. I went back into the bedroom and got dressed in shorts and a tank top before going downstairs. Brandon had already cooked dinner and when I got there I smelled and saw the delicious looking plate of shrimp, steak and baked potatoes with sour cream and cheese on it. I sat down at the table, waiting for him to join me and when he did we ate in silence. Once we had finished eating we washed our plates, dried them and put them away before going back upstairs to his bedroom. The whole time nothing was said and you could cut the tension in the atmosphere with a knife. There was no way in hell I was going to be the first one to talk, not when he was the one who was in the wrong. I got into bed and I lay on my side, turning to face away from him.

  “We have a long day of training tomorrow.” Brandon said, sighing. I felt when the bed dipped down as he got in and then felt him reach out for me, touching my shoulder, but he quickly retracted his hand when I did not respond to him. What was it with him? Did he even realise what he did wrong or did he think he was in the right? Was he waiting for me to apologise to him? If that was the case then hell would freeze over first.

  “Do you think it will all be okay?” I asked, mind-linking my wolf.

  “Don't worry, everything will be okay and if he can’t see what he has with us then he doesnt deserve us.” Kayla replied, growling slightly.

  “Yes, but if I leave then you will also be leaving his wolf. Can you do that? Are you willing to do that?” I asked and she whimpered in my head. I knew she hated the idea of leaving his wolf, especially seeing as this wasn't his fault, it was Brandon’s.

  “I know it will hurt, but I don't want you to suffer because I want to be with his wolf. Brooks will understand, he knows what his human is like.” Kayla replied, but she sounded so sad when she did. I knew this would be hard on her and I was in a catch twenty two situation. If I left my wolf, Kayla would be miserable without her mate, but if I stayed then I would be miserable with my mate.
