18 New Day

My back was sore as I sat up and found myself on the floor. Wait, didn't I slept on the bed? Because Xavier forced me to stay with him, or he will sleep on the sofa with me.

Neither I want the poor thing to break down because of him nor I would like the male sleeping on me, so I slept on the bed but why am I waking up on the floor?

The bed was empty which mean he was up. If he is awake he could have moved me to bed when he saw me down. But wait....where is he? It's just 9:30 am.

As I amble downstairs, my mate was nowhere in the sight but the scent of food told me that he was in the kitchen. I walked inside the room to find the male making omelets, pancakes, and toasts.

'Wow, nice breakfast. He is amazing.' I hummed while sitting on the chair.

"Good morning." He grinned at me and yet again my heart starts beating fast as I felt a weird feeling.

"Why doing all this?" I asked him.

"I won't get to spend much time with you today, so I thought to have a nice breakfast, made by me." I smiled at his sweet thought.

"This is for you both," Mia said as she handed us a small bottle filled with some liquid.

"What is this?" I looked at it.

"It will be helpful for you, as we all know that no one is safe. The danger is lurking around so this poison is for hiding your scent. It can be useful in attacking someone silently." She told us as we both listened to her.

"You should keep this with you as you are going to another pack. I know they are your ally and you are going there to ask them to help you so if we get attacked we will have more people to fight from outside but still, we don't know... You all can get in some type of trouble." I told him mate on which he nodded and then smiled.

"Are you worried about me, firecracker?"

"I gotta go guys," Mia said as she dragged Sebastian with her.

"Bye!" We both shouted and then Xavier looked at me again with a raised brow. "Do you?" He was referring to the question he asked earlier.

"Umm...of course don't want to lose a..." He was looking at me intensely, wanting to know what I will say. "Good chief like you. Also, you're the Alpha of this pack." I said on which his face changed in a fake sad one. He is quite good at acting.

"I'm hurt, you should have said that you will miss my handsome face or my beautiful body." He is being cocky again.

"In your dreams, Mr.green eyes." We both smiled as he stood up indicating that it is time for him to go.

"Take this bottle too, I heard Gemma is going too. Give this to him. Tell him to not get in trouble. Be safe all of-" Before I could complete my sentence he engulfed me in his arms. It was the first time he had hugged me if we can just forget about him cuddling with me all night while I was trying to push him. Note the keyword trying. 

As I ended up with his hands tightly secure around my waist and one of my legs stuck between both of his legs.

"Don't worry, both of us will be safe and will come back with all the other wolves who are going with us. Gonna come home as fast as I can." An odd feeling was once again there.

He broke the hug and smiled at me. The next thing happened fastly....... Nah, not what you are thinking. Don't think dirty, he kissed me.....on the forehead and left the house.

****

The whole ride I was smiling like an idiot and for a second Oliver thought that it's better if I get a check-up from the doctor but I just rolled my eyes. He, being a curious cat didn't let me breathe until I told him the reason behind my smile.

I walked out of the car to meet the Alpha who was standing for greeting us. The other wolves were behind me while the gamma was beside me.

I hope Bata is taking care of everything back there in the pack, I left him in charge of all the work to handle.

"It's nice to see you both after such a long time." He said with a pleasant smile. He was a good friend of my father and that's why I first came here because I know he will not say no to us.

"Where is your father though?" He looked at me. His salt and pepper hairs were neatly styled as he wore a white shirt with gray pants. 

We entered the office where his son, who would be maybe twenty-year-old because as I remember he was four years younger than me.

"Ah, father..." The word sounds bitter, I never like him, so calling him this isn't easy but of course, have to be respectful.

"He's at home, resting. You know as now I'm the Alpha he usually doesn't have to attend some meeting." Or should I say any, because he just stays at home. Who knows what he was doing?

"I see. Congratulations on being an Alpha. We haven't met for a long time that's why I didn't know that." He asked us to sit as he and the male beside him sat as well. The other wolves of mine were out of the room, only me, gemma, and one other wolf was inside the office.

"This is my son, Fred. You both remember him right?" After a bro hug and some other casual talk, I told them the reason I came here. Oliver continued after that.

"I have heard all this but didn't know your pack was the one being attacked. Don't worry we are always with you, tell us when you need us." He said in a voice of authority. I nodded and stood up.

"Great then." We shook hands.

"Xavier, I would like you both to come to my house. You know my wife wants to see you." He said, his wife was indeed a good and kind woman. I have always liked her because back then she would give me a lot of food and I love food....so yeah I always meet her first.

TodayyTodaye here as an Alpha and that's why I did my duty first. I nodded to him as it would be rude to say no to him.

"Oh, my Godness, look at both of you! So grown up and beautiful." She hugged Oliver and me.

"Wasn't I beautiful back when I was small?" Of course, Oliver was the one to ask this.

"I didn't mean it like that, dear." She said thinking idiot gemma was serious but when she saw his face she knew he was joking.

"Come on in." We all sat in the lounge.

"Whenre is the feisty cat by the way." Oliver looked around. He would want to see her, he always annoys her.

The last time when we met them, he was fourteen years old, and she was of twelve years. He wants to irritate her, but she was ignoring him so dumped a small bucket of cold water on her, and then, of course, she ran behind him until she got her hands on him. After that, we could say that Oliver's hair was not in the good condition. 

We also find him all brown because she threw all the cocoa power on him.

"Oh don't worry Oliver she is coming. You can bicker all you want with her." Fred said on which I laughed.

"The Lunch is ready." We all were about to start our food when a voice took our attention.

"Mom I'm back!" It was Sophia, the feisty cat.

"What are you all-" She stopped suddenly, I looked up to see her eyes on Oliver. Not only that, both of their eyes were of their wolves' color. Which, only means one thing..... They are mates.

"Shit." I heard Fred said that.

I can say, it's not very good as both of them together are not a good sign. Just hope my pack doesn't have to see their gemma being beaten or his mates roaming around wet or anything weird like that.

"Well, nice to see you feisty cat, or should I say, mate?" The male smirked while she looked like she has seen a ghost.

She ran upstairs without a word while his parents came out of the shock they were in. I smiled, now, my friend Oliver will know how amazing it is when you have a fierce and sassy mate.
