Female Alpha's Warlock Mate

Chapter 10

Lina's POV

"Uh! Hii!! I am Gerald. Gerald Bane. Donovan's best friend and a member of spiral council here" he says.

Spiral council? I turn around to look at Donovan again and his eyes are already on his friend Gerald. Maybe I'll ask him about this some other time.

"Welcome to our world!" Gerald smiles again.

I smile and nod. Gerald then walks towards us and I see Donovan disappeared already. Into the kitchen or to another world, I am not sure.

I see Gerald walk towards where Snow is sleeping. He looks at snow, smiles to himself and looks at me. Maybe this man adores snow too.

In an instant I see Gerald grab snow waking her up and throwing her up in the air only to catch her safe again. My heart did a backflip at what I just saw. My jaw drops open and my eyes go wide.

Now I question my earlier judgement again, do this man really like snow?

Snow wiggles in Gerald's grip trying to claw him but Gerald held her in safe distance. Snow's helpless purrs surely made Donovan angry. He marches towards and yells at Gerald to drop her.

Gerald sticks his tongue out but eventually drops snow onto her bed again.

"Why can't you stand her presence?! You are such a weirdo!!" Donovan says as he walks to the kitchen again.

"As if he'll know that's my love for her" Gerald whispers low but I have heard that unfortunately.

He looks at me and smiles. I smile out of courtesy too. But I did not expect him to hold my hand and drag me to a random direction. My heart rate picks up and I come up with ways I can kick and punch him. I mentally already did punch him too.

I see he brought us to the porch. There are four chairs. A tiny table. Few of snow's toys on the table and around chairs. I see Donovan really really likes Snow. Maybe I should befriend her.

"Okay. Now, I am all ready to be team Lina" he says with a smile.

He is too extroverted that it is starting to annoy me at this point.

"What's the point? At the end of the day, you'll shift to his side once I leave" I say with a shrug.

"You've got a point but how about being the neutral one but getting to hear juicy details from both the sides?" He wiggles his eyebrows.

"Stop!" I say scrunching my nose up.

This man is getting excited for nothing! Maybe he thinks highly of his friend but his friend is someone who has not even kissed through his eight centuries of existence! Such a boring guy!

"Why? Private?" He asks.

"Private my arse! That man is hella boring!!" I tell him as I roll my eyes.

"Guess what? I'd agree" he shrugs shoving both of his hands into the pockets his trousers hold.

It is really cold over here. I see it's raining too heavy. Everything here is too much. The nature is throwing excessive liking towards this world, is what I understand now.

"But you see... That man is such. He never really had a woman before" Gerald shrugs again.

And that got me thinking.

"Never really had a woman before? Like, ever? Romantically involved or family?" I bombard him with my questions.

Gerald only chuckles before answering me again, "No woman. None in the family too" he says.

None in the family? Then what about his mother?

"Never really had a mom I could look up to" I hear Donovan's voice again.

I see he walks to us with a tray in his hand. I see cheese crackers. Sugar cookies. And two mugs of coffee and one has hot chocolate in it.

"Thank you!" Gerald says as he takes his mug of hot chocolate.

"You don't like coffee?" I ask him.

He only shakes his head muttering that he wants some more marshmallows. He even goes inside to get himself some. Is he just a big ass kid?

"What do you mean?" I ask Donovan.

He takes a cheese cracker and offers me one. I shake my head and grab the sugar cookie.

"About my mother?" He asks and I nod.

I look at his facial features and without a doubt, Donovan Fade is the most handsome man I have ever seen. His black hair and Black eyes are enough to hypnotise anyone! Not to mention that sharp jawline.

I know this might sound cheesy but I just want to let him know that his jawline can cut me into fries.

"Ugh!!!! Such a disgrace you are to me!" Nora scoffs.

I can't help! Ever since Donovan entered the picture, all I ever be is cheesy! I don't even know what's wrong with me.

"I see you have very less knowledge on Warlocks" he whispers.

I nod. Matter of fact. I have only heard that Warlocks are a species of supernatural race. But I don't know their origin. How they are like. Where they live. Their lifestyle. I know nothing! And then Moon Goddess throws a surprise party by pushing a Warlock towards me.

A handsome one at that! I mean, I am not blaming.!

"Warlocks are born to a demon parent. A demon and a human. Often the demons are male. But in very rare cases, female! My father is a demon while my mother was human. Since Demons are known as strong source of evil, humans then weren't capable of carrying their children. The modification, is the warlock children! We are not as great as demons. Not as weak as humans. We hang somewhere in between" he shrugs.

This feels like one of those history lectures Adi used to tell me about. He used to act what happened at school and that's how I know it.

But this is much more interesting. It really feels great that your race has their own roots and it's just wonderful that they grow up remembering where they came from.

"Do you remember your mother?" I ask him.

Donovan slowly nods. I don't ask him anything anymore. Because if she was human, then that means she passed away long ago. It has been eight and half centuries.

Few minutes of silence later, Gerald walks empty handed. Where is his hot chocolate?

"Too bad I drank all of it before reaching the kitchen" he shrugs.

I don't know why, but I fall into a fit of laughter. If there is anything or anyone entertaining in this world, then it is Gerald Bane undoubtedly.

I take a sip of the coffee and I just had to say it, "Damn this is good stuff right here!!!"

Donovan rolls his eyes with a smile while Gerald just laughs at my comment.

"Stop! You're just being noisy!" Donovan shoves Gerald.

I see two big children before me. I don't see greatest Warlock Donovan Fade or his best friend Gerald Bane anymore. Just two kids bickering.

"Are you always this way?" I ask them taking another sip of the amazing coffee.

"Yep. Your life mate is a boring one while I am the fun one!" Gerald clearly looks like he is the boasting one.

"Yeah. He is just like snow. Both the dramatic idiots!!" Donovan says.

I finish my coffee watching these two people bicker about who is more dramatic. I really see a new version of Donovan. He is more lively and free when he is in this world. I would love to see more of this side.

"Tell me about spiral council. What is it?" I ask Gerald.

Ever since I have heard him say about it, it has been bugging my brain. I have not heard about it. Also the name itself screams that it is something powerful!

"So.. you see spiral council is for warlocks. A team of finest warlocks together make the spiral council. We just make sure our world is at peace without engaging in unnecessary wars with other supernatural species" Gerald explains.

So it is the supernatural council to us. But here, this is exclusively for warlocks. The only difference is that. But I am still intrigued. These people have their own world. Their own climate. Their own council. Their own everything. This has to be some crazy s**t!

"And you are a member? Of spiral council??" I ask Gerald again.

He nods. His chest puffing with pride.

"I never knew they trust kids to this extent! Wow" I whisper and the look on Gerald's face is unbelievable.

Donovan raised his hand for a high-five and I just had to mentally stab myself because he looks so cute. I find myself struggling to raise my hand. He gently touches my hand as he still laughs looking at Gerald's face.

I feel sparks. I look at Donovan and he is still laughing. Maybe I can be good friends with Gerald too. He is no harm and he keeps me entertained. So what are the odds?

"For how long I've been here in this world?" I ask Donovan.

He glances at the clock. Stares at the ceiling deep in thought. His face clearly screams he is calculating.

"It is probably early in the morning in your world. Maybe 3 o clock?"

"I would still call that night!" I chuckle.

"Vannie! I like this girl" Gerald says.

Vannie?

"Stop calling me that" Donovan growls but I am still stuck at that one word.

Vannie? That's what Gerald calls Donovan as. Aww!!! If this is not cute, then I don't know what is!!!

"Vannie???" I squeal and start giggling.

"The name is so cute, but I gotta admit Gerald," I pause and look at Gerald who is already looking at me.

His eyes clearly screaming at me to support him and take his side. Guess what? That is what I want to do. Genuinely!!

"It is a waste. Such an adorable nickname to such a boring guy!!!" I say and start laughing again.

Gerald raises his arms in surrender. Donovan looks at Gerald with fiery eyes and Gerald knew better than anyone to just run away from Donovan's side. And so, he does exactly that!

Gerald just disappears into thin air.

And that is when Donovan's eyes fall on me. s**t! I am in trouble now. I start running inside his castle and he runs behind me. I run little more faster using Nora's strength too.

Once I reach a room that looks like the store room, I come to a halt. I turn around and I don't see Donovan behind. He must have lost his way.

"Well, this is his house so maybe you are the one who lost her way!" Nora says.

Seriously! She doesn't have to come at me like that!!

I turn around to take a look at the dusty store room again and my heart skips a beat. Donovan stands inches away from me.

Fuck his teleportation skills!

"Hi! Whatsup for lunch?" I ask him with a wide smile.

But he looks like he is in no mood to joke around. I close my eyes and wait for the impact. Looks like I clearly made him angry. I am here lost in this world and without Donovan's help, I can't seem to go back. And now, I even made him angry.

"Good luck" Nora growls

"With what?" I ask her back.

"You'll see" is all Nora says before jumping in the back of my head.

I open my eyes only to close them again due to the spark intensity of his lips on mine. I lose my balance for a second because of this sudden movement, but Donovan seems to be quick enough to hold me by my waist.

This time.. and I guess I have to mention.. for the first time he takes the lead and moves his lips against mine. My head seems to be spinning with sparks flying around.

I bring my hands and place them on his shoulders as I bite his lower lip. He doesn't give me access to his mouth or tongue. I was about to pull away when he holds the back of my head and puts me in the place.

He gently squeezes my waist making me gasp and that is when I feel his tongue against mine fighting for dominance. I don't know where he learnt this from, but I am clearly enjoying.

My right hand travels up to his hair and buries itself in his soft black mess. His tongue dominates mine meanwhile and he takes his time exploring my mouth making me lose my own self control.

My other hand travels down and rests on his chest. I sense him shiver and that unconditionally made me smile.

He pulls away to breathe and rests his forehead on mine. His eyes still closed. But he has a satisfactory smile on his face.

"Hell! What are you doing to me, Lina!"
