A Mysterious She-wolf

Chapter 15

Kavi's POV

"Hey Kavi, there is one new restaurant opened in the town. And our people are telling that the place

was good and the food tastes amazing. Can you accompany me to taste the dishes? And the owner is

a werewolf, so we could eat without any limits. What do you say?"

Surya asked me over the phone in an extra sweet voice very curiously.

I could understand he was tired of asking me for dates and now he stepped down to trickily ask me for

dinner. But I owe him for always helping me and working like a carrier to pick up and drop me back at

home. I am too lazy to use my bike and he never said no to take me out. So what is a big deal? I have

control over myself. Why not? And I won't let him pay, I knew his struggles. I could feast some delicious

chicken there. Logan bragged about how tasty was chicken fry there. That stupid has gone there with

his college friends.

"Are you there, Kavi? Please say okay!"

He almost begged. I laughed internally at his desperateness.

"Okay. But don't ask me to dress up. I will be ready in my black t-shirt and blue jeans. Come quickly."

He was silent for a few seconds.

"Helloooo?"

I checked my phone whether the line is still connected.

"Did you just say yes?"

His voice came out in disbelief.

"I can change my answer if you don't like..."

I teased him.

"NO! Will be there in fifteen. Bye, my dear tomato!"

Before I could protest for my nickname he hung up. It's been a week since the mission happened and I

am trying to forget the incident.

I took a quick shower and got ready as I said. His bike horn sound reached me exactly in fifteen

minutes.

"Hi!"

I greeted him with a smile.

"Hi! Shall we go?"

He said raising the accelerator of his bike letting it roar.

"Yeah. Let's go."

I said holding the grab handle behind me as always.

The restaurant looked so fancy and I felt under-dressed. But he is too wearing a plain red t-shirt with

black jean. So I feel even with him. If you have the company of your friend, you could overcome these

complexes easily.

We walked in and the place didn't seem crowded. Maybe it's because the restaurant was new. We

walked to a table and sat opposite to each other. We ordered a big meal which is especially for

werewolves with a big quantity which would be delivered at certain intervals of time. I admired the

surrounding in the meantime the first plate was served. The food was tasting heavenly as everyone

said.

He was telling me about his childhood mischiefs and also about hardship. He visits his mother every

weekend. But he misses her so much. The way he speaks about his mother with such love and

admiration, showed he would take care of his mate very well.

Halfway during my meal, I smelled my mate. But my expression turned sour to see that leech. They

have dressed fancy and appropriate for the place. Who cares?

My wolf was scratching inside me and she suggested me a wicked idea on seeing Pooja's white dress.

I excused myself telling I need some more sauce in the new plate of food and took it with me to the

kitchen. And I might have accidentally skitted and dropped the plate on Pooja's lap.

Surya came to my side instantly and I extra sweetly apologised for not watching my steps. She started

cursing like a sailor without bothering about the surrounding. Akhilan was looking at me with hidden

smile which made my heart flutter. I shrugged it off and went back to my place.

While she cleaned up and came back, a human lady who had just arrived here asked where she

bought the dress as it has good design. I can't help my burst of laughter. Pooja sent me death glares.

Surya was laughing too. I saw them leaving the place. My wolf appreciated for my wonderful handwork.

I felt so contented even though what I did was wrong. That bitch has been behaving over her limits. I

didn't realise that I seated next to Surya in the satisfaction of ruining my mate's date.

When I turned around and saw Surya's admiring look, my laughter dies down as I felt his aura radiating

waves of love. I knew he was confusing his feelings. Once he finds his mate, he would give all his

undivided love to his mate.

I have frozen for a few seconds when I find him leaning forward. But my wolf was barking at me to

react which helped on time as I turned my head but he cupped my cheek from moving away any further

and pressed his lips on my cheek. It wasn't a friendly kiss as I felt his aura radiating lust and his lips

lingered there for a few seconds.

I don't know what came over me, but I stood up abruptly and my palm kissed his cheek. I'm fuming with

anger. I have explained him a lot about mates. He looked shocked holding his cheek.

"We both knew we aren't mates. I have told you a thousand times that I have been waiting for my mate.

But you can't accept it, right? Fine. Never come before my face. I shouldn't have agreed to go out with

you. It's my mistake."

I turned around and froze for the second time to see Akhilan there. His eyes were travelling between

us. His face was blank and he picked up his car key from where they had seated. I let out a scoff and

started walking towards my home.

I knew Surya's love is pure but when he finds his mate, things would get complicated. He is denying to

accept that. And how can I mate with the other male while my mate is waiting for me? I like Surya. If

only we aren't bound by mates, I would have considered giving him a chance. But already I have

enough on my plate now.

My wolf was barking at me as if I lost my virginity to him. It's just a kiss. I blocked her and quickly called

Logan to come immediately. He met me in his wolf form near the border and I asked him to take me

home and I hopped on his back. After a few seconds, I got down and asked him to come inside and

gave him his shorts that we have here for some sleepovers. He is the only one who had seen me

breaking down.

And I did that again and cried on his shoulders telling everything. He knew Surya's feelings for me and

patted my back till I pacified.

He stood up suddenly and went to the door and I understood the reason as soon as my nose filled with

cinnamon. I heard them arguing over letting him inside.

"Logan, let him in."

I shouted in my croaky voice and immediately went to the kitchen to get some water and splashed

some water on my face. I don't want him to see me crying.

I walked back to the living room and found him in his shorts. I didn't look at him neither acknowledged

his presence. His aura was radiating guilt and pain. I sat on the sofa and waited for him to speak. He

approached me and got knelt before me. He cupped my cheeks and made me look at him. His eyes

were filled with tears and conveying his pain.

"I'm so sorry, Kavi. I shouldn't have forced my feelings on you. But I can't deny that I love you from the

moment I laid my eyes on you. I have been trying to get your attention a lot.

I don't know what I was thinking. I never seen you laughing so much. And you looked so beautiful with

all those happiness. I... I just forgot everything that moment. I'm really sorry for bringing tears in these

beautiful orbs. But please don't push me away from your life. You are all I have now. I can't even go to

my mother without the constant fear of risking her life. Please! I promise I will never do something like

that again. But please accept my apologies."

Tears flowing from both of our eyes. He was somehow bonded to me so close. Our wolves share some

relationships that couldn't be defined. It's not out of lust. It's affection and friendship. But our human

sides conflicting the feelings. I placed my palms over his hand on my right cheek and nodded my head.

"Sorry, I over-reacted at that place. I embarrassed you. But try to understand me. It's good for both of

us. If anyone of us finds our mate after getting close, our wolf would want to be with our mate but our

human side wouldn't agree with that. It will only raise more confusion. I am not ready to do anything

which I already know that it would bring pain to me. You don't know anything about me. Nobody knows.

So please change your mind."

I told him with an exhausted sigh. He looked like a hurt puppy but he gulped his feelings and nodded

his head. Logan came and sat next to me.

"Stop your emotional dramas. It was so boring to watch. I was in patrol while you called me. And I am

so hungry now. I am going for a hunt and resume my work. Don't get into another fight. And you, Surya,

if I get to know that you laid a finger on her without her permission, I will rip you into two pieces. Keep

that in mind."

He warned us in a playful tone and went out and I heard his shifting sound. Surya stood up and palmed

the back of his neck and looked at me hesitantly.

"I will take leave, Kavi. Sleep well. Sorry for spoiling the dinner. Good night. Bye."

"It's okay. Don't worry about me. Good night. Bye"

I am currently walking back to the territory after washing myself in the waterfall I found, after one of my

Saturday tournament. I would keep my healing energy power open which would let me know if

someone is there within 20 miles radius. It eventually grew stronger and I learnt to regulate it. Alpha

Sezhiyan had initially sent spies to check where I was going. On such days, I would just camp out in

the middle of the forest and would go back to the pack territory the next morning. After a few weeks,

the surveillance stopped and I resumed going to my tournaments.

I went to my home and got very bored as I need to develop an idea for my current project. The client

seems bugging Kalai to develop a creative website. It was an educational website and it requires me to

read and know about the basics in everything to make it error free. The background of the website has

to be colourful and informative. But it needs to have an artistic touch because the head of that

education trust has more interest in art. So I have been trying to get photographs that would match the

requirements. Or I need to develop my own design. Kalai usually gets the backgrounds done but her

daughter has found her mate and now she was preparing for their wedding which leads to extra work

for me. But that was the least I could do for her.

I walked to pack house and found the place almost empty as it was just six in the morning. Training will

not be held on Sundays unless it is necessary. So all wolves were resting. I heard some noise from the

back side and followed the sound. The sun was coming up from the woods. I inhaled deeply to enjoy

the fresh morning smell. But I was surprised to inhale the smell of fresh rain and pineapple.

'Our mate is here'

My wolf yipped happily.

I quickened my walk and slowly peeked my head out. He was sitting below the Mango tree and was

doing something with a notebook. Surprisingly the leech was not here. He was in a simple blue half

sleeve t-shirt and a grey sweat pant but he looks so hot and sexy showing off his delicious muscles. My

wolf wants to come out and do so many perverted things. With a sigh, I continued to relish the peace

by looking at him.

"If you want to ogle my body without my knowledge, you should have masked your scent. You don't

have to hide behind the curtain."

How did I forget that he could have smelled me by now? I walked out with a covering smirk.

"Nothing I haven't seen before. Don't start to brag about yourself"

I said in an uninterested tone.

"Okay!"

He said calmly and drowned in his notebook again.

"What are you doing here at this time?"

I asked as my curiosity is getting my best.

"I am the type of person who appreciates the beauty wherever it is..."

He looked at me up and down and locked eyes with me with a smirk. I bit my inner cheeks to stop

myself from blushing. My wolf was mesmerised and kept her tongue out drooling over him.

"And also I am an artist. I got up early and couldn't go back to sleep. I came here and the sight of

sunrise caught my attention. So simply sketching it to cherish this moment."

He showed his notebook. I was surprised as he did his degree in engineering. And their family run a

high quality furnitures shop in the town. He was now helping his father to develop the business. Yet he

was fond of art.

A new piece of information about my mate!

I looked at his drawing. It was a simple black and white sketch. But honestly, the sunrise was more

beautiful from his hands than the real one. He highlighted the beauty of the Sun peaking from behind

the trees and it looks so real.

"Wow! That was... really amazing!"

I exclaimed.

He gave me a cute smile reminding me of my Teddy. I looked away as it was tougher than I thought.

How am I gonna live with him if his every move remind me of Teddy? These brothers have the same

face cut!

"Thank you. Why are you here at this time?"

He asked me.

"Can't get sleep. So I was just roaming."

I said back in my uninterested tone.

"You shouldn't be roaming alone. There are many bad wolves out there like me."

He stated with a sinister smirk. My wolf was nodding her head and drooling at his sexy smirk.

"I don't think there would be any danger inside the territory. And you doesn't seem to be a threat to

me."

"We can't predict anything!"

He said with a distanced look. I hummed in response and we fell into comfortable silence looking at the

Sun rising up from the blanket of green trees.

"You had totally changed."

He said in a whisper. I let out a sigh as the painful past flashed before me. A sad smile made its way to

my face.

"Life has the tendency to make changes in people."

I stated calmly. I heard staircase creaking; people starting to come down.

"But why are you distancing yourself from me?"

Oh Moon God! He had noticed.

I am so sorry, darling. But it was for your good. If Manohar's words were true, I would meet that

monster soon. I might even die But I don't want you to get punished by the bond. I touched my

moonstone pendant and looked at his eyes. It may hurt you but I think this is for the best.

"That's true. I don't like someone mating a person other than his or her mate. In my opinion, it's an act

of disrespect to Moon God. That's why I am avoiding you. You don't have the patience to wait for your

mate and also marrying a mate of someone. Those two souls were so poor to get destined to both of

you..."

"Don't speak anything without knowing the truth. Who told you I didn't wait for my mate. I have been

waiting for her for the past ten years. And I am still waiting! Every day I am praying to Moon God to

show her to me. But I can't keep on hurting my mother. She wants to see me happy and she thinks that

the only way for me to be happy is to get married. That's why she kept on insisting me. I know about

myself. I never wanted to marry someone else."

He started furiously but finished sadly. My heart pained for him. For the first time, I regret my decision

as I can't even touch my mate to even console him. But the screeching sound of Pooja's voice instantly

made my regret vanish.

"Why are you talking to her? Let's go. I have been searching for you all around."

She hugged him and held his bicep and leaned on him. I let out a deep breath to calm myself. One day

she was going to face the wrath of my wolf!

"Even if she finds you, I could tell that she would never come to you on seeing this!"

I signalled their closeness. I smirked ignoring his painful and shocked look and walked back into the

pack house.

I found Dhaya descending in his formal wear. He smiled at me and put his hand over my shoulder and

turned me and bringing me to the kitchen along with him.

"Whoa! It's miracle that you got ready so early that too on Sunday!"

I teased him to distract myself from the sour mood.

"Hmm. Actually, I don't want to but father godzilla strictly told me to go to Blood warriors to speak about

the renewal of the peace treaty. So here I am, as handsome as always. Right?"

He asked me. I smiled at his bragging and nodded my head and bowed dramatically.

"Whatever makes you happy, your highness!"

I heard him chuckle and suddenly Iniyan flashed before my eyes.

"Hey, by any chance can you bring Iniyan here. I want to meet him. He loves to be here with me."

I asked hesitantly.

"Are you really asking for a favour from me? How can I deny your wish, gorgeous? Will surely bring

him! Hope you would treat me for that favour."

He asked playfully but the edginess in his tone made me blush but I quickly covered it.

"Sure, I would make some sweets for everyone. What do you say?"

He shook his head while we sat down to feast our breakfast. He left with a bye.I asked him to inform

me after his arrival and went to see Luna to offer some help without knowing the tornado awaiting for Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
