The Beguiled Bond novel Chapter 3

"Hi, Rachelle! Glad to see, my beautiful mate."

He took my hand. I felt a jolt of electricity when he held my hand and brought it to his lips to planted a soft kiss on my knuckles. It sent shivers down in my spine after he does that. I could feel the heat started to build in me because of him. His scent is still alluring and hypnotizing to smell every second.-

I slowly heaved in a breath and took off my hand from his. And I remained my blank expression even though he affects me. "Why yes, likewise," I said boldly.

Someone nudged me intentionally causing me to step big steps. I glared at whom who did that to me and I found Storm looking at me with daggers. I mind-linked him. 'What the hell?!' I yelled through our mind-link.

'That manners of yours, fix it. He's your mate, Ray for Pete's sake.' He said.

I ignored his glare. 'Whatever. I'll do what I want.' Then I cut off our link. When I gaped to Claude, I caught him looking at me with awe. I furrowed my eyebrows, confused. What the hell did I just see from his eyes? I rolled my eyes at him but I didn't see that he was shocked after I do that. I just found amusement in it. I gritted my teeth in sultriness. What the bloody hell!

"Excuse me," I said and passed by them. I want to get out of this closure place. I hate it! My mate is kept on watching my movements with awe. It was like he was worshipping every movement I made. It made me feel uncomfortable.

I made my way to get out from Storm's office, I caught Claude looking at my ass. I clenched my fist. Damn! A pervert mate!

I sighed in relief when I was out of his sight. I don't like him being around me like a while ago. I went downstairs and stormed out in the packhouse. I let my feet walked towards the gym. I sighed in happiness. This is my paradise for a moment. I felt so free whenever I was here in the gym and whatever felt me so free was training myself and challenging too.

But for now, I will indulge myself in just watching the other werewolves training themselves. They have to be stronger if in case war begins or rather rogue attacks.

I let myself strolled around the pack. And let myself drowned in my thoughts. I never thought I just had met my mate surprisingly. I couldn't just accept him in my life. He must understand that. I mind-linked my brother to tell him about what I feel that's why I left them.

I stopped in my tracks as I noticed I was in the pond alone. I leaned in at the railings as I watched the fishes swam in the water. No children playing here because Storm made a playground just for them. I sighed again. Well, I kept on noticing that I've been always sighing with emotions filled. This is not the usual me. I should blame my mate because I was drowning in my own thoughts. I mustn't think complicated things and war is an exception for it.

I forgot to tell Storm that after a few days, I'll go back to the palace. I have to train the other royal guards there. I was a battlefield commander. I have to talk to other commanders and we must plan other tactics in case rogues try to mess the Alpha King's palace.
