Chapter 19 - Nineteen : The Brokenhearted Mate
"He's refuses to eat " Judith said carrying the tray of food ordered to Daniel's room hours ago.
Ryan sighed and combed his hair with his hands, this past few days Daniel has being nothing but a pain in the ass.
They found him two days ago in the woods all naked, bloody and battered , it seems the animals nearby suffered his fury judging from the carcasses of the dead animals littering the scene.
The sight was just too gory and disgusting, Daniel had ripped each animal's intestines inside out.
Thankfully, he thought. No human was injured else it would be a different story altogether. If such a scenario happens, the council would do everything in their power to put Daniel down.
Fortunately , it was quite difficult to find a human loitering in werewolf territory though they live in the same town. With or without the witches help, werewolves auras are naturally aggressive and tend to repel them unless mated to one of them.
So no human naturally ignores the bugs crawling on skin or hair standing on edge warning and come inside a werewolf territory unless you've being bonded to one of them and your souls are calling out to each other, just as simple as that.
They preferred to live in the woodsy part of the town due to their nature and for the safety of humans . Eventhough they weren't moonchasers who only turns on a full moon but the effect of the moon invigorates them also which often results to a run in the woods.
Moreover they have guards patrolling the boundaries so the success rate of sneaking in was ten out of hundred. Cases of humans accidentally coming inside werewolf territory wasn't rare but not often since there are humans whom without being a mate to one of them are naturally immune to their auras.
Which is why human mate is treasured like the salt of the earth, they are not given any intensive work most especially the females and often have the privilege of being assigned a guard, since a werewolves temperament was unstable as the waves of the sea. Though a werewolf wouldn't exactly hurt his mate but when jealous and angry, a lot could go down.
They brought Daniel home, gave him a good bath and shave but the guy was broken. He refused to eat nor drink and would stay in his room looking out the window.
Thankfully, the bond between the mates wasn't solid strong in the first place so Daniel was saved from going insane. At the moment he was just grieving and nothing else.
"Give it to me " Ryan ordered taking the tray of food from Judith.
"You think it's going to work this time? " Judith asked unsure of what he was planning to do.
"Trust me " Ryan offered her a smile "once he hears my offer, he won't reject food "
"Fine, you're his beta anyway " Judith said and turned to leave but Ryan held her back by gripping her hand.
"Thank you " Ryan said, having realized how efficient and hardworking the girl was.He had pushed the girl to the limit these few days.
"Uh, ..no problem " She managed to say, her face was flushed red and she was finding it hard to breathe. Why were they doing this to her? She cried out. For God's sake, was it a crime to have a fetish for hot, breathtaking handsome guys? Moreover how could someone be that handsome? that's totally unfair . Well, welcome to life.
Judith wouldn't exactly describe herself as pretty or hot enough to turn heads or so she thought, she was just normal. She had ink black straight hair with gray eyes, slim with a pear shaped figure but what was special about her body was her ass and leg. She had really really round, firm ass that could crush a girl's self esteem when compared, not to talk of her legs.
But Unfortunately, the girl was a warrior and also the second in command after Ryan, so no matter how much the unmated male werewolves desired, fantasized or wanted a fling, they could only watch but touch not, well most times they were watching the ass and not the one bearing the ass.
"OK, I'll be going " She said looking into Ryan's eyes and instantly regretted it. Thanks to her tall legs , she was reaching Ryan's 6'7 " feet height at eye level. So when she stared, she directly looked into his caramel coloured eyes that was sending a lot of tingles in her body.
She coughed , walked away, before she lose herself and do something unspeakable to her superior and boss .Once outside she leaned against the door clutching her poor heart , this wasn't a mate bond but an attraction.
"You fool, is there any handsome guy on earth you're not attracted to " She scolded slapping her face.
Ryan smiled inwardly, even though the girl acted all fierce and tough, her greatest flaw was a handsome face. Suddenly he worried for the safety of their pack, what if an attacking enemy pack have a handsome face?
Waving the ridiculous thought aside, he left for Daniel's room. He didn't bother to knock and just stepped in knowing Daniel would not open in the first place.
Stepping in, the room was dark, hot and stuffy with no trace of sunlight, he closed all the shutters.
"Get lost! " Daniel growled
Ryan snorted "As if that would scare me "
He swiftly switched on the electric bulbs, a fluorescent glow lightening up the room while he realized the mess the room was in.
There was broken chinawares on the floor with food spattered on the wall. His stuffs lay carelessly on the floor while his wardrobes and drawers were open and ravaged as if a burglar broke in.
Ryan ignored the mess on the ground instead he studied the figure on the bed with his arm over his eyes. He dropped the tray of food on the bed "Get up, have something to eat "
But Daniel didn't even stir, he totally ignored him.
Ryan clenched his jaw hard, he was trying to keep his anger in check.
"Get up now !" he roared and this time successfully incited Daniel but not in the way he expected.
Daniel sat up and with one clean swith move swept the tray off his bed, the whole content splashing and crashing to the ground.
And that was it.
"You bastard ! "
