A Mysterious She-wolf novel Chapter 12

Kavi's POV

"Where were you last night?"

Alpha Sezhiyan's voice boomed across the room.

I kept my calm composure and maintained my aura at the same pace but slightly showing regret. I knew this would come as Logan was future beta and he could not keep secrets to his Alpha.

"I went outside the territory. I just like to spend some nights alone outside the pack. Sorry for stepping outside the territory without your permission, Alpha."

I knew my apology would reduce his anger. I knew it's about the safety of pack and Alphas were so protective of their packs.

"I knew Logan helped you to get back. How did you go out unnoticed? It shows how inefficient my border patrols were. I demand you to answer me honestly."

His wolf ordered me. My wolf was getting annoyed as she feels he was expressing his dominance but I knew he was doing exactly what he has to do.

"The trees near the mountain was so close to each other. I crossed the territory there as it was easy to walk on the thick branches from one tree to other and I used wind direction to walk to avoid noises."

I told him the truth. His look was so sharp and his eyes returned back to normal.

"We have a set of rules, Kavi. You can't just break them. Run ten rounds across the territory without any break and meet me here. Mukilan was waiting outside the door and he will run with you."

He ordered and mindlinked Mukilan. I nodded.

"Alpha, she can't..."

Logan started but I cut him off.

"I can. I am not human. My wolf is not surfacing but I have wolf blood. Keep that in your mind."

I spoke with fake annoyance to Logan. He nodded grimly.

With a nod to both, I walked out.

"What did you do to get this punishment?"

Mukilan asked.

"For a werewolf, ten rounds across the pack territory is nothing! Doesn't it?"

I counter questioned him. He nodded slowly and we made our way to the pack territory.

I finished the rounds and the worst part was I had to act like I was panting at the last round. When I entered the pack house, I saw Pooja with a happy smirk.

Word gets out so fast!

But I actually felt so good with that exercise. I ignored her and went inside to meet Alpha Sezhiyan. Mukilan asked me to meet him later as he was in the middle of some important discussion with patrols team.

I walked to the back door as it would be short to go through the woods to reach my home. I noticed Dhaya and Logan standing there. I walked to them to give a good punch to my little cousin.

"He is showing soft blue. I think that means he is calm. And she is showing deep purple. She is sad...."

Dhaya was pointing at people and telling Logan what he was seeing. I couldn't help but laugh as Dhaya was two years elder to me yet he didn't learn which colour means what. They two looked at me weirdly.

"Dhaya, don't get so worked up. Don't use your logical human side to guess. It's our wolf power. Let your wolf guide you. He would tell you accurately what their aura means."

He looked at me wide-eyed. I realised my mistake but I knew better to keep my aura calm. He opened his mouth to speak. But Alpha Sezhiyan's voice boomed across the place.

"Kavi, Dhaya and Logan come to my office now"

I turned back and walked back confidently. There was complete silence. Aryan uncle was looking at me keenly just like Sezhiyan.

"How do you know about auras?"

Sezhiyan asked with a tired look.

"I have read it in a book from the library in my previous pack. It said that Alpha wolves would have the exclusive power to see the aura of people and it also had the meaning of every colour. It was fascinating. So I read them. And when I heard Dhaya telling about colours and his guessings for its meaning, I thought it was about auras and shared him my book knowledge, Alpha."

I lied fluently.

What's wrong with me? I am acting stupidly and risking my secrets. I should keep my mouth shut. This is why I hate socialising. Letting anyone inside my mental walls would lead me to the place like this. I should keep my distance away from everyone.

He nodded his head but I could sense his suspicion clearly. Way to ruin a great relationship, Kavi! He would never trust you completely anymore. I heard him sighing.

"I trust you, Kavi. You can tell me anything. I am... I am just trying to help you. You are like a daugh..."

"Please don't complete that, Alpha. You are a great man that I love from since I could remember. I don't want you to keep you in the place of someone whom I hate the most. And I knew you had some information about that incident. Even if you didn't earlier, I knew you have found something now. Please tell me who it is?"
