Chapter 6- Pretend mate
”I am only joking, Miss Jo”, Dante voiced with a smirk playing on his handsome face. Jo was not convinced he was joking. He definitely knew something and could see past her tricks.
She needed to go back to her room later and mask her scent more. Also, she had to give some to Lucy but still needed to cover the rest of her scent. This was getting riskier by the clock.
Nothing was coming in between her future plans and her, she has been on the run forever and she was getting tired of it. Sometimes, she even had to sleep with one eye open because of the dangers that were always lurking in the dark for her.
Jo would get through this as she always did. Now she even had a stronger reason to fight for, which was to get Lucy out of this hellhole.
‘Ha-ha. Do all the werewolves from the royal kingdom have such an impeccable taste in humor because, if so, I would need to strike the royal kingdom off my places to visit”, Jo snickered her nasty comment to his amused face.
She quickly clapped her hands before giving him a chance to reply, ”If you have had enough of your silly jokes, shall we make haste to the hunting ground GE-NE-RAL?”, Jo rolled her eyes at Dante.
”Sure, lead the way”.

Caleb looked at the curvy omega on her knees giving him pleasure in his most sensitive part.
‘Hmmm’, the omega moaned as she worked her tongue on his hard tip and slid her hands up and down on his shaft .
Just when Dante mind linked and interrupted him. Dante has been his childhood friend, always serious and poised about everything. But man, could he be annoying sometimes and have bad timing.
Dante barked some orders about talking to the witnesses, making Caleb grunt. It was early morning and all he wanted was to get his d**k sucked properly.
Without wasting any more time, Caleb lifted the omega off the floor easily and positioned her on all fours, raising her a** for him. He entered her juicy p***y and pounded it fast.
‘Faster please’, the little omega begged, making Caleb more hard. The omega started clenching her walls and groping his d**k and this made him c*m instantly.
‘You are a good little f**k’, Caleb said, getting off bed and heading to the shower.
‘A pleasure to serve you, General’, the omega replied in her seducing, slow voice. Maybe this one-week extended stay wouldn’t be too bad after all.

Caleb spent the next few hours talking to various omegas in the garden and guard post. There had been a series of mysterious murders happening around the werewolf world, especially targeting she-wolfs. Strangled bodies with a cross mark on their wrist. So far, the death counts have exceeded one hundred, hence why Dante and he have now been deployed to solve these cases. The unexplained deaths started from the Crescent pack and have now spread to various small packs, including the Dark slayer pack.
So far, Caleb did not have a single lead. These deaths were top secret for now to avoid chaos and panic in the werewolf world. But on a precautionary basis, all of the pack Alphas have been informed to tighten their border security. It won’t be too long until the culprit is captured anyway.
Caleb was lost deep in his thoughts when a mesmerising scent hit him. The air was filled with the scent of roses and fresh sea breeze. He instantly knew it was his mate. His wolf Titan started growing uneasy as he wanted to surface out to find the scent’s origin.
He followed the trail of the scent just when it started wavering and faded out. He stopped in his tracks frustrated. Why did it stop? He pondered on himself as he noticed a blonde girl standing in the middle of the footpath junction.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
The outline of her figure alone drove Caleb crazy. Who was she? Just as he was about to approach the girl, someone grabbed her roughly.

”Come to my room tonight, little mate’, Alpha Jayden’s deep voice made Lucy shudder. She tried loosening his grip on her arms but he was physically too strong for her.
So Lucy simply shook her head, refusing to be treated like one of his bedwarmers.
”Let me go”, she finally managed to speak. ”Please”.
Jayden only took this on as a chase game. His little mate was trying hard to get and it was turning him on more.
”Alpha Lame-den, I believe?’, a masculine voice chirped, in interrupting them.
”Its Jayden”, he corrected as he turned in the direction of the voice to see one of the generals standing in front of him. He was wearing a distinctive armor suit. Jayden instantly let Lucy go, fearing that the General would be less impressed seeing him rough handle an omega, even if she was his mate.
”Well General, how am I finding you here? Everyone was summoned to the hunting’, Jayden questioned, with a hint of annoyance in his voice.
”I can say the same for you. If I am not mistaken, you are hosting the hunt, so how are you still here?”, Caleb asked back, his eyes lingering on the blonde beauty next to him.
”Well I got caught up with something. Let me lead you to the hunting ground General”, Jayden tried dismissing the conversation as he led the way.
Caleb simply nodded but before he left, he looked back at the blonde beauty one more time. She was looking at him wide-eyed, as if she wanted to say something but couldn’t. He gave her a wink and saw her mouth open. Maybe she fancied him? He would certainly enjoy her company more than the omega from this morning.
‘See you around”, he mouthed at her before disappearing with Alpha Jayden.

Lucy stared after her ”pretend mate” and the silver-haired general. She had never seen anyone more attractive than this silver-haired man. He had a godly sculpted face with silver locks dangling in front of his face.
And as she inhaled the scent coming from him, it reminded her of an ocean breeze, fresh and soothing. It was her true mate! Her heart started pounding as she looked at her mate in shock. All her life, she had secretly wished that at least her true mate would see past all the false accusations that were ridiculously piled on her and believe her only. But everything was different now.
Jo had just scented her this morning to make her scent similar to hers. Although Jo never really truly unmasked her full scent, she had been releasing tiny bits around Lucy which was more than enough to play pretend mates with Alpha Jayden. She could not risk exposing their plan now, it could cost her, her freedom. And she so desperately craved to leave this pack.
And what if her true mate did not want an accused murderer as his mate? What if he just laughed at her and rejected her in front of everyone? She had to save the last bit of dignity she had left in this pack. Also who was she kidding? A General from the royal kingdom were on par to Alpha titles and strength. The silver eyed man would certainly distaste her if he ever found out she was his weak murder- accused mate. This probably worked out for the best. He would never find out that she was his mate and move on to choose a strong mate for himself.
But as she watched the figure of her true mate fade in to the footpath, she collapsed on to the ground crying. Her hands went over her chest, touching her mother’s locket.
”Mumma, please give me strength to go through this”, she silently prayed.
