Chapter 0011 Emilys pov What happened with Maya and that she wolf in the bathroost shook me even after hours later . There was just something with the way her anger controlled her that had me on edge . It was strange to now be afraid of your own best friend , especially not knowing what runs through her mind . A part of me trusted Maya , and knew she will not hurt me , but another told me to always be prepared because her anger was unpredictable . Youve been acting weird from morning Em . Are you going to tell me whats on your mind ? Its not those dumb rumors circulating around is it ? Bryson asked , looking at the with concern as he buckled himself . I shook my head , my tongue pushing out to lick against my dry lips . Theyre not dumb if they can potentially get us in trouble with the alpha . I whispered , buckling myself and looking over at him . I caught his eyes on my lips and he quickly tore them away making me ponder if I had seen him gawking at my lips or not . My dad wont believe those stupid rumors Em . Everyone knew we were best friends for years . Going on shouldnt even be a problem . Bryson rolled his eyes and gripped the steering wheel and started the car . I sighed heavily , ripping my gaze from his chiseled face that made my heart skip in awe . arun He was absolutely perfect , and he didnt know how much I wanted him . If he knew it wouldnt be much of a difference . We were too different and not fated . Youre right . But he would not want to have them circulate and spoil whatever chance you have with your mate . Bryson- Suddenly a firm powerful voice cracked through the mind link Get inside my office the two of you , now !! His alpha tone was present and had a shiver tickle down my spine . It wasnt the pleasant shiver his son normally caused , no , this one had fear eating me up . Bryson and I looked at each other the exact moment the link cut off . His dad had mind linked the both of us at the same time . my voice . Were in trouble arent we ? I whispered with a bit of panic getting loose in Brysons bottom lip sneaks in between his teeth and he bites . His reaction both had me aroused and panicked . Noticing my panicking gaze Bryson reached out , his thumb brushing along my cheek . It feels like fire from his touch had passed between his thumb and settled on my cheek . Heh hey Em . Everythings fine . Im sure its nothing . Well go see what he called us in for . It will be okay . He promised , eyes dipping to my lips but quickly tearing away . He sighs , almost in defeat and pulls away from me . Suddenly his palm lands on my thigh , startling me and having me heating up instantly . His touched burns through my skin , tickling my veins with heat . Ill always be by your side Em . Theres nothing to worry about when Ill be right beside you , He promised and pulled out of the parking lot . +25 BONUS Chapter But he didnt pull his hand away from my thigh , no . It remained there the rest of the ride until we arrived at the packhouse . You two have caused a bit of a ruckus in the pack , Alpha Brent grumbled , crossing his arms over his chest , at brow lifted as he regarded us . I gulped , looking over at Bryson nervously . I knew this had to do with those rumors . I knew they would get us in trouble . Whatever you heard , its not true . Em and I went on a run and I admit it was really late , but I couldnt sleep and she was the only one who could calm me down . That patrolling wolf saw nothing and only exaggerated on what she saw . Bryson told his father , keeping his chin up . Alpha Brent nod and then sweep his gaze over to me . Emily can I have a moment to speak to my son ? I looked over at Bryson and then tore my eyes away . I nod amy alpha , and said politely . Yes alpha . Ill meet you in my room Em . Ill be there soon . Bryson promised . I nod and walked out of the door , but dont reach far and eavesdrop on their conversation . I knew it wasnt a good thing to do , but I was curious . Bryson I know Emily means a lot to you . Everyone knows how much she means to you . But youll be getting your mate soon and its unlikely that you two would be fated . You need to distance yourself away from her for a bit until you find your mate . Being around an unmated she wolf , especially with you and her being so close would cause problems for you and your mate- I couldnt hear any longer , I needed away from these hurtful words . I gulped and hurried down the stairs . Alpha Brents words hurt me a lot but I knew he had only good intentions . His son was supposed to take over the pack soon , he had to have strong luna by his side . Me being in the middle of this upcoming bond wouldnt be good . It was already clear that Bryson and I were like two peas in a pod . When his luna sees how close we are , shell obviously not like it . And thats normal . I literally raced out the packhouse and down the pitched road , passing some of the pack members who looked at me in curiosity . I kept walking quickly until I could no longer see the packhouse and I was only surrounded by green thick trees . But five minutes into the walk and the sound of tires rolling on the road reaches my ears . I dont have to turn to know who it was . I can somehow already sense his eyes on me . He drives slowly to keep up with me and rolls down his window . Get in Em . Bryson utters . I crossed my arms under my breasts stubbornly and swept my gaze over to him for a few . Ill walk Bryson . Your father is right you know . We should keep our distance until youre mated with your luna . I whispered and trained my eyes back on the road . I have a good distance to walk to get home . +25 BONUS Chapter 0011 Get in the car Em . Bryson growled , suddenly sounding a bit frustrated and irritated . I know he didnt like me mentioning his incoming mate bord , but hell have to suck it up , because its coming soon and fast . And the quicker he stops getting angry at the thought of getting his luna , the better it would be for him . No , I said stubbornly and kept walking . Suddenly the car comes to a screeching halt and then a second later the door opens and footsteps furious and quick dash towards me . Bryson ! 1 gasped as he hauled me over his shoulder quickly , dangling me like sack of potatoes . His response was a firm slap to my ass and a growl . Pll be happy to feed those rumors more fuel if you dont get inside my car . What other wolf is roaming around to catch a glimpse of us ?? Hmm , how about we give them a show ? His beast growled .
