A Mysterious She-wolf

Chapter 33

Kavi's POV

'I think we need a break!'

His words rang through my head. I didn't reply to him. I just walked away ignoring him calling my name.

After last night, he left to Green Ocean Pack. But then today he came here and told me those words

which brought pain to my heart. I understand he is afraid of losing me. As there are probabilities of our

mating might kill me as that dream-man said. But why he wants to stay away from me. The bond was

hurting us by staying apart and pushing us to mate. That's the main reason he wants us to be apart.

But what will he do when I go into heat. I walked to my office and sat there looking at the ceiling for how

long I don't know.

I told the incident to our top ranking warriors and called Manohar and told him about it. And I am going

there in a few days. Last week Sezhiyan asked Akhilan to tell me to meet him when we asked him

whether he knew any strange thing. But when I went there to renew the peace treaty he told me that he

had spoken with Manohar and I will get a call from them soon. He knew something but wasn't ready to

tell us.

A knock brought me back to the reality and I shouted a 'come in'. Ashwin and Vijayan came in. I smiled

at Ashwin warmly knowing the reason for his hesitation. After killing them, he went running in his wolf

form into woods and other pack members mentioned he was at our pack cemetery. At last, he visited

his mate and unborn pup. He seems refreshed and groomed and he hesitantly came in.

"Alpha!"

He called me that for the first time and looked around me avoiding my eye contact. My mind flashed

our first meeting and I burst into laughter remembering him calling me 'bitch' for not helping him to

remove his shirt. His aura was radiating deep embarrassment and slight sadness.

"Sit down, Ashwin. What brought you here?"

I asked him.

"Thank you very much, Alpha. I feel very better now and my wolf spoke to me yesterday after a very

long time. And I visited my mate and my baby. I feel home after a long time. You made it possible. Dad

told me about everything happened here. You told me to decide whether I want to here or not. You

fulfilled my life goal, Alpha. I am now ready to serve my land where my mate was sleeping peacefully.

Please allow to take up my position. It was already too late."

He said in a sincere tone. I nodded my head and looked at Vijayan who was proudly looking at his son

with a big grin.

"I'm so happy about your decision. I have to go to Council in a few days. We will have the ceremony

the day after tomorrow. Make the necessary arrangements for that."

I told them thinking about the new change gonna happen here. He will make a good Beta.

"And just call me, Kavi. No need for formalities."

He nodded his head and left with a small smile. That poor soul had finally found a way to let out his

pent up emotions. Now he was free from his feelings. Yet I know the guilt will never leave. It will leave

its traces deep inside. Vijayan held my hand and thanked me with happy tears. I patted his shoulder

soothingly and asked him to spend his time with his son. They might have a lot to catch up.

My mind was so stuck. It's been two days since I see my mate. He doesn't even mindlink me anymore.

Our connection was blocked and I even went to Green Ocean pack in midst of all my Alpha duties as

my wolf was constantly whining and I too miss him very much. But no one knows about his

whereabouts and Rakshana gave me an ultimatum that I am the reason for all the problems happening

to her family.

I fed up with all these dramas and I started walking back to my pack to calm myself. But with my distant

thoughts, I ended up lost in the midst of the woods. I sighed and was about to turn back, a whiff of wind

brought me the faintest smell of my mate. My wolf instantly made me turn around and we started

sniffing to get to the direction of the scent of my mate.

I came to the clearing but froze for a second when I realised it was Green ocean pack cemetery. There

was no sign of him here. But I found a bunch of recently kept flowers near a tombstone. My heart

started beating erratic as I could guess who it would be. Akhilan must have visited his brother. That's

why I caught his scent here. I didn't visit Amudhan even once. He sacrificed his life for me. He was a

very important person in my life. At least now I should pay a visit and talk to him. I realised I came

across a small pond and went there to pick a few lotuses from there. It was the least I could do now.

I shakily walked back and stopped there and looked at his name. I took in a deep breath and knelt

there. Tears started flooding as my mind cherished the memories we had together. My silent cry turned

into weeps and into loud cries. I hugged the tombstone and started to let out the frustration I kept in

me.

"I'm so sorry, Teddy. If I didn't come to meet you that day, you would be happy living with your mate

now. I killed you. Please forgive me, Teddy..."

I wept breaking all my mental barriers down.

After some time, I heard some shuffling sound behind me and reflexively I turned around to look at the

direction of the noise.

I let out a deep breath on seeing my mate coming near me. His eyes were glossy as well. I closed my

eyes determining to tell him about my relationship with his brother. I stood up without looking at him. He

pulled me to a bone-crushing hug. Tingles shoot up all over me making my wolf sigh with contentment.

"I thought you forgot it all. But you have actually mistaken our identity, Anjali."

Akhilan said in the happiest tone I ever heard. But my heartbeat now increased faster than before.

"What do you mean by that Akhilan?"

I asked in a whisper not believing the fact unfolding before me.

"I'm your Teddy. Not him."

He said with a big smile and hugged me again weeping on my neck. I stood still even forgetting to

breathe. How is that possible? I saw him dying before my eyes. And how can I forget his hazel green

eyes?

He must have sensed my state and pulled away. He pecked my lips softly and carried me in bridal style

and I knew where we are going.

He sat down with me on his hands letting me sit on his lap. It was the tree where I fainted before I saw

my Teddy's body going limp.

What was he up to?

Akhilan's POV

I saw my mate looking at me with lots of questions in her eyes. I know she didn't believe me. She

couldn't. Because I have lots of changes in me.

"I can understand, Anjali. It was very difficult for you to trust me. But it was the truth. Let me tell you the

things you don't know."

I calmly spoke and stroked her cheek with my palm. My wolf was happily standing for the closeness

with our mate. She didn't reply. I let out a sigh and started telling her the things I buried deep inside me

misunderstanding that she forgot about me.

"My parents let me stay with my aunt to help her cope up with the loss of her son and husband who

were died in recent pack war. But I didn't transfer there. I was mutually accepted by both pack to

mindlink both pack members considering that I belong to Green Ocean but needed in Blood warriors

for my aunt. My brother Amudhan stayed with my parents.

I still remember that I failed in the training that day and Alpha Krishnan punished me for that. And I lost

some cash belong to my aunt while we went out. It was a bad day for me until I met you on my secret

spot. Not many people know that this place exists. But I use to come here daily to watch the

mesmerising Sunset. That day I spotted you in your pup form. You looked so beautiful and I felt a

strange connection towards you. That day you told me about your bad day and we watched the Sunset

together and I dropped you near the bottom of the mountain. I chanted your name that night many

times and I wanted to meet you again. My wolf and heart were so happy with your company. And I

knew I won't see you again.

To my surprise, you were there at the same spot again. I love to watch your wolf form in that shining

Sun. Your silver fur will glow contrasting to the Sun. Our friendship started blossoming and I don't even

know what we fought for, but you stopped coming to see me. My idea of watching sunset turned into

the wish of meeting you and I paid my visit there every day. But I use to return with disappointment

every day to home. That evening, Amudhan came to meet me here. When I was returning back home

after thinking you wouldn't come, I heard you calling me followed by your howls. I ran back to the top of

the mountain and saw you crying on the floor. I consoled you and I ... I kissed you and said that I love

you. You were so cute to accept all my affection."

I paused and kissed her lips softly. She responded instantly with tears but I know she still does have

her doubts. I pulled away and looked at her eyes. She was holding on my shirt very tightly. I know she

was recalling everything and she still does carry the same amount of affection for me.

"That beautiful evening shouldn't have turned like that but our destiny had different plans it seems. I

mindlinked my brother instantly when I smelled rogues here and shifted to my wolf. But you were

stubborn to leave and you wanted me to let you fight. My brother came back running as he was half-

way down the mountain. When one of those rogues injected silver in you, my wolf enraged and I

aggressively attacked that rogue. I realised that you might be my mate and that's why I have this effect

with your presence.

The thought of losing my mate made me mad and I didn't look at the other rogue throwing some

chemical at me. I remember you whining and crying looking at me before darkness engulfs me. That

was a chemical which would stop ones' body to work. As it was a very strong one, my eye was affected

badly and eventually, my eye colour changed. After I got my consciousness in a few hours, I was

informed that rogues had decapitated my brother with a silver sword but the pack warriors killed them

already. I felt responsible for his death and I missed him very much. I also learnt that you were

unconscious and in critical condition with a large amount of pure silver in your body.

My brother funeral happened with all respect and I visited you when I heard you gained your This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

consciousness. But you didn't remember even your own mother and you only let Alpha Sezhiyan near

you. I visited you daily for the next three days without my mother's knowledge but you were still under

the trauma. I couldn't get myself to come and bid you bye the next day. I can't believe my brother was

gone and now you were going to leave me and the worst part is you no more remember me.

I went to search my mate to all packs in secret wish to meet you. But failed in it and went to the next

level training. But when I came back, I was shocked to see you here. I was so happy that you are here.

But you had totally changed. My wolf felt so interested in you and I knew from the first day you are the

black mask. The feeling I went through when I meet you at that rogue tournament was the same on

seeing you here. However, you avoided me in every way and I thought you didn't remember me and

repel me for some reason.

That didn't stop me from trying to win your heart back even though you weren't my mate. I have fallen

for you when I was twelve and I never happened to retrieve my heart back from you. You are always

the one my heart wanted. Your scent is the one which would make me and my wolf go crazy. Your

chocolate skin is the one I want to sink my teeth into and claim every inch of your body as mine. You

are always the force of attraction to me, Anjali. I just love you very much. I always have!

Our bond had formed well but I don't know why someone was claiming you as his. I would never let

anyone take what's mine but I won't let anything to hurt you too. That why I was keeping my distance

with you. I don't want to lose you for any reasons. You are so important to me, baby."

I confessed my heart to her and looked at her. Now her eyes were shining in happiness and her lower

lip was quivering from her silent crying. I held her tightly and let her cry. I could understand her. She

was thinking that no one cares about her. But the destiny had made its way to hid the care everyone

has for her. She sobbed for a few minutes and kissed me till my lungs emptied. I love the way she was

aggressive with intimate things. It allures me more to her. But the fear of losing her had tied my wolf,

not to cross the limit. I'm more than ready to start a family with her but not at the cost of losing her. I

already lost her twice when she was younger and with the masking pendant. I don't want to lose her

anymore.

"You won't lose me. I love you, Teddy. But why didn't you come to meet me in all these years?"

She said with love overflowing her eyes and questioned me with a pang of evident sadness. I let out a

sigh.

"The guiltiness for being irresponsible for not able to protect you when we are younger. And the fear of

you seeing me as a stranger stopped me from finding you. How can I bear to see the emptiness in your

eyes when the same eyes showered me with love once. Thank you Moon God! He knows our love.

That's why he destined us with each other. I love you, Anjali. Don't even think about leaving me. I want

you. I don't know who he is and how powerful he is but you are my mate and I will always cherish and

protect you with all I have."

I opened up my mind to her. I know she was into some trouble with all these mysteries happening

around her. But I will never let her down.

"I missed you so much. All these years and for the past two days too. Please don't stay away from me.

I want to mark you and make you Alpha of our Pack. You belong there. Talk to your parents. It's already

too late. Shrini decided to stay in council for a few days with Iniyan as she needs time to accept the

things happening around her. I brought my Beta back. But my Alpha was still behaving like a guest.

Come to me, Alpha!"

She started sadly but her words turned into teasing and at the end. But the need in her eyes matched

with her words. I should talk to my mother. It wasn't her fault for the past. I was the one who called

Amudhan there. My mate wasn't responsible for it. With that guiltiness only I agreed to everything my

mom asks me. But not in this matter. I won't leave my mate for anyone. And I won't let anyone take my

mate away from me.

I felt a chill run through my spine when I thought the last sentence. Was that dream-man watching us?

We sat there till the sunset and we went to Blood warriors pack in our wolf form. I love the way our fur

colour matches like silver and gold especially when we dip in the water or stand in the Sun. I waited

there till she sleeps and went back to Green Ocean pack as Alpha Sezhiyan wanted to meet me for

some emergency.

I knocked at Sezhiyan's door and entered to see a member of the council sitting there and Alpha's face

had a grim expression. I saw Zarina taking her wand out and darkness engulfed me.
