A Mysterious She-wolf

Chapter 11

Kavi's POV

I am wearing a plain half white short kurti and blue jean. Yeah, girly right? My wardrobe had upgraded

with constant advises and shopping sagas with Luna Mithra and Inba aunt. The pack dinner was the

most important thing because any gathering would improve the relationship between the pack

members.

Pooja was roaming in a shining bright red coloured knee length dress. She sure has a variety of flashy

dresses and she never missed an opportunity to wear them. She was happily roaming like this Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

gathering is for her and giving me the same dirty smirk whenever she saw me. I ignored her and

helping the mothers to take care of the pups. Just like everyone I miss my carefree pup life.

Mukilan was with me. Dhaya and Logan were with their fathers as they are learning things before

taking the charge. Mukilan was like a brother to me. Just like Logan, he cares for me more and he

shows his care expressively unlike my mother. Dhaya's flirting never ceased and he would love to

tease me whenever he gets a chance. Mukilan stepped up earlier because he lost both of his parents

in a car accident a few years back. And that maturity will be reflected in his every act. In the past year, I

have tried in many ways to bring any clues about the monster but I failed in every step of my efforts.

While I was chasing a pup on the backyard, who has a very playful mood, the pup bumped into

someone. The heavenly scent of rain and pineapple with his fresh body wash scent filled my nose. I

looked up at him. He was smiling at the pup and lifted her in his hand and checked for any wounds.

'He would make a great father.'

My wolf piped in with a purr. I ignored her as he was so handsome in his white shirt and blue jean.

Wait! We are wearing the same coloured clothes. My wolf jumped like an excited kid on that realisation.

He looked up at me and smiled. His vibrant grey eyes made my breath hitch. He was so handsome and

hot. I kept my face blank and turned around to go inside. I felt his aura turning into disappointment

which was actually scaring me.

Why was he getting disappointed?

I touched my moonstone pendant and sent a quick prayer to Moon God and went inside to join with

Mukilan. I noticed Dhaya coming in my direction. He was wearing a black shirt and blue jean and

looking handsome as always. His playfulness in his eyes and the smirk on his lips warned me that he

was planning something. I raised my eyebrow at him and nudged my elbow at Mukilan's back for

backup.

"Hey gorgeous, would you do the honour of staying my side in this beautiful evening?"

I would always tease him for all these antiques. At the same time, I saw my mate entering the house

with the pup in one hand and that Pooja was clinging on his other hand.

I wanted to say 'yes' and put a show to see my mate's reaction but the idea was like a double-edged

knife. I can't give wrong signals to Dhaya. So as always I smacked his arm playfully and shrugged the

matter off. I saw Akhilan joining his parents in my peripheral vision.

I focused my wolf hearing on their conversation but regretted as soon as I heard what they were

talking. Rakshana was telling how excited she was to announce that Akhilan and Pooja were going to

get married in a few months. My wolf howled inside me in pain. I too was shocked to hear that.

Above all, his silence to his mother's statement was scaring me. So it was true. And this is what the

announcement my uncle said. Yeah! He would be happy for the wedding of his friend's son. Suddenly I

felt my wolf getting aggressive. I instantly left the place and started running after a few meters after

checking no one was there. It pains to me too but I need to calm her down. When I came to the border

of the territory, I struggled to gain my control back and yelled at one of the patrols to inform Sezhiyan

that I would be back soon. And I ran past the territory ignoring his protest. He can't leave his place and

follow me as the patrol need to be very cautious at the time of social events because it would be an

easy catch for enemies.

As soon as I realised I was at the safe distance, I stripped quickly and shifted and let her have control.

She started letting out her rage on the trees on our way. It was so painful and she was blindly hitting

herself on the branches and falling down without focusing on the way. The new moon day made me not

to see the moon but something inside me was awake wide and it was in full rage increasing my wolf's

rage. I smelled the rain clouds and soon it was pouring heavily. She found a cave and went inside. My

wolf let out a loud painful howl echoing through the cave and dropped down breaking into tears. I let

her cry and I knew better to not say anything. She stood up suddenly and started running towards the

pack.

'We can't go there. Stop!'

'I don't fucking care about our life goal. I can't live without my mate. And I knew you too can't live

without him. But you won't accept. I am going to claim him as mine. He was destined to be with us."

I gathered all my will power and took control of the wolf form and walked back into the woods. She was

pounding inside to let out.

'If he really wants to be with us, he would have waited for us. He wouldn't have chosen other she-wolf

in our place.'

I said in a calm tone. She went silent after hearing that.

'He was twenty-six and he was waiting for us for so long. Even he went to all the pack in search of us.

We need to get rid of that cursed moonstone and let our mate know who he belongs to. He might be

forced into this. Please! I stood there for you all the time and supported all your decisions. I am living

inside a cage within our own body. If he marries her, we can't live. Then how do you think you could

fulfil your revenge. Please let him in.'

Her sobs broke my heart.

'Why are you not understanding the fact he doesn't want us? If he does, he wouldn't have agreed to

marry some other female. And we are the reason for his brother's death. We can't expect him to accept

us with open arms. Do you want to get rejected? I know you love him. But we can just leave this place.

I know we can't see our mate with another she-wolf. But if we go to him, what if our revenge brings

danger to him? I would rather let him live happily with someone than to get killed. Now tell what shall

we do?'

She went silent and shut me off. I knew she realised the seriousness of the problem. I shifted back to

human and wore my dresses and walked in the rain back to my home. I can't blame him. If I showed

him who I am, he might not have to get another wolf. Still, I can't help the feel of betrayal spreading in

my heart. Why didn't he wait for us? Tears were pouring automatically. I changed my dress and went to

bed. But sleep was far away.

The next day I felt so weak without any sleep and deep pain in my heart. I messaged Logan that I am

not feeling well and asked him to go to college. I lied the same to Sezhiyan and Mithun for skipping the

morning training. I didn't tell Sezhiyan why I went outside the border yesterday. I laid all day in the bed.

Usually, us - wolves, would eat more but I don't feel like eating anything. I have only felt the physical

pain of rejection while healing others. But this emotional pain was too much than I ever imagined. And I

knew I can't behave like this for a long time. It might make people suspicious.

I wrapped up myself and went to the kitchen made some black coffee and had it without sugar. The hot

bitterness was soothing for my situation. Otherwise, I won't touch it without milk and sugar. I heard the

door knocking and went to open the door. My eyes widened on seeing Surya there. What was he doing

here? He wasn't allowed in our lands.

"What are you doing here?"

My voice sound alien with all my crying. He touched my forehead with the back of his palm and

frowned.

"Umm... I asked Logan to take me to your home. Because I never have seen you falling sick. And I am

worried about you."

He whispered the last part but I heard it perfectly. I looked behind him and found Logan on the phone.

He must have got permission from Alpha. He is soon to be Beta. He knew better.

"Thanks, Surya. Come in."

I welcomed him and pulled Logan collar to drag him inside. I asked them to sit on the sofa and seated

myself there. The room was filled with an awkward silence. I looked at my half-drunk coffee cup.

"Coffee?"

I asked in common and saw Surya nodding his head with a smile.

I made two cups of coffee and brought some chips with me. Logan was now done with his phone and

looked at me with a raised eyebrow. I set everything in the table and went to sit in my place with my

coffee. Logan was silently studying me. He knew werewolves don't get sick often and this was the first

time I am getting sick except for that rogue attack. Surya moved next to me and took my hands in him.

Logan was giving me an amused look as he was aware of Surya's failed date attempts.

"Do you want me to take you to the hospital, Kavi?"

I shook my head and slowly withdrew my hand from his hold. He looked genuinely concerned.

"I'm really okay, Surya. Can't you see?"

He just smiled at me and stroked my hair. Suddenly I straightened and Logan too stood up from his

seat as we smelled someone.

A she-wolf barged into the home with her nose up in the air. She looked at our direction and whispered

'Mate'. A smile made its way to my face as I realised Logan's mate found him.

But she walked past him and stood before Surya. She studied his features and her eyes darkened. She

must have realised he is a human in his confused state yet I could see Surya have felt attracted

towards her. Mate bond! I sneakily took a few steps away to let her know I am not in their way.

Getting a human mate is rare but not uncommon. And I am happy for them. Surya is a great man and

from the look on the she-wolf's face, she was already head over heel for her mate. Logan walked to

their side and clapped his fingers. They looked at him and the she-wolf bowed her head and her eyes

glazed.

Wow! Surya will be turning into a werewolf soon. Human and weres physical qualities were so different.

So if the destined mate is a human, the wolf can mark them with their permission to change them into a

werewolf. That will leave us contented physically and emotionally and also the changed wolf will be

able to understand the feeling of mate-bond completely.

"Hey Surya, this is Veena. Veena, this is Surya."

Logan made the introduction. She repeated his name twice with a growing smile. She seems like she

wants to mark and mate him at this instant as her love and lust was strongly rolling over her aura. He

smiled at her action and admiration was heavy in his aura. Way to go!

"I have some work. Do you mind if she drops you at your home?"

Logan asked him and Surya just nodded his head without breaking eye contact with her.

"Bye, Kavi. Take care of your health."

With a smile, he left with her. I smiled sadly at the thought of why I can't be like a normal mate to him.

But the answers rushed to mind made me shook my head.

"So what made you run away last night from the gathering? And why you look so... devasted?"

Logan asked me. I gave him a sad smile and looked away.

"I want to sleep. So leave me alone. Pick me up, as usual, tomorrow morning."

I shooed him dodging his question. He didn't say anything but studied my face.

"You can tell me anything, Kavi. Why are you like this? It's worrying me."

He asked softly. I just wanted to tell him everything and cry on his shoulder but he is a loyal wolf and I

can't risk my secrets.

"I don't want to talk about it. Please leave it, Logan"

My eyes welled up at the memories of yesterday. He shocked to see my tears and pulled me to a hug. I

wept on his shoulder silently. It's really good to have a shoulder to cry. He held me all the time

whispering 'Everything is gonna be alright' and it eased me a little. After some time, he wrapped me up

in a blanket in bed while I leaned on the headboard and he sat near the corner of the bed.

"So, what happened yesterday after I left?"

I asked him even though I know it would break my heart. I just want to know! I need to know how my

mate has been dealing with marrying another she-wolf who wasn't his mate.

"Nothing interesting. Everyone knew Akhilan bro is back. So that's it"

I frowned on hearing that.

"Aryan uncle told that he was expecting some announcement and he looked pretty excited?"

I asked him with my new curiosity.

"Oh, did he mentioned anything about arranging mate for Akhilan bro?"

My heart constricted on hearing that but I kept my fake confused look and shook my head 'no'. My wolf

lowered her walls down to listen about our mate.

"Hey, there was the latest gossip about last night. How did you miss that part? Akhilan bro's mother

wants to set him up with her tail, that Pooja. Akhilan and Pooja were friends forever and Pooja seems

to have feelings for him. But he doesn't have any feeling except friendship for her. He has been

escaping his mother for the past three years. But she was so adamant to fix the marriage for them. He

had finally agreed before coming here. But yesterday, suddenly he told her that he needs some more

time. His mom would have created a tornado if he hasn't agreed for going on for a few dates with

Pooja. Some people were happy for them getting together but some people were thinking they should

wait for their mates."

He told me the story in a hushed tone. My wolf grinned and I could hear her thinking that 'See bitch! He

is waiting for us'. But I underlined his statement 'He finally agreed before coming here'. She snorted but

her mood became chirpy. I won't lie that I was washed over a great wave of relief too.

"So they are dating for some time before their marriage!"

I stated in his same hushed tone.

He nodded his head. I nodded and let out a yawn and it made me realise how exhausted I was? He

stood up and ordered me to take rest and said that he will be downstairs and I knew he was going to

stay to look after me.

The next morning I woke up to the amazing smell of coffee and oranges. Within seconds the door to

my room opened, and my dear cousin entered and handed me a cup of hot coffee with a big grin.

"Good morning, sleepy head. You are sleeping straight for thirteen hours. Get ready. Let's go to

Training ground before one of the hulks come here."

I laughed at him for calling Sezhiyan, Aryan uncle and Mithun as hulks.

"Good morning and thank you very much.. for being there for me."

He just raised an eyebrow for being so formal even after all these days.

"Did my mom wake up in the night? I didn't remember waking up in the middle of the night!"

I asked in confusion.

"No. One of the warrior's mate gave birth to a baby boy last night and your mother was there all night."

I nodded in understanding and hopped off the bed to get ready for the training.

I have a long way to go!
