Claiming His Tempting Mate novel Chapter 9

Devak's POV

"Why are you calling me like that? you don't even let me talk with Sav" Tanea complained and tried to free her hands from my grasp.

"Why were you so busy with others other than me? Woman, do you remember you also have a mate?" I frowned.

She raised her left eyebrow "oh, so you mean just because you are my mate I should stick to you like a baby monkey?"

"Right," I nodded.

Her eyes widened "you ...you…. So…."

"I know I am handsome. What's there to remind them?" I said teasing her.

"Devak Lang, what do you think of yourself?" Suddenly she yelled. Her face became red because of anger. Her lush cheeks tainted with redness and gosh, she is looking so hot right now. I felt my body suddenly harden with the thought.

"Your mate" I raised my eyebrows.

"You despicable pervert. Do you always think of that thing" Tanea glared at me.

"You know me so well" I smirked before advancing towards her. She was already angry because I had separated her from Sav. I never knew what these two women always talk about but whenever they are closer they will whisper to each other so secretly and when I ask they would kick me out of their conversation.

"You ….. don't you dare think of that" she warned stepping back.

"Why are you moving back darling? As your mate I have all rights on you" my smirk became wide as I stood closer to her.

"You step back" but before she could move away I grabbed her wrist and pulled her towards me. Her front collided with my hard chest and she gasped.

"You pervert let me go," she struggled. I wrapped my arms around her slim waist caging her.

"You are resisting? But deep down you love it don't you" I smirked.

~Fuck, her wolf is purring with delight. I can sense it~ Gian, my wolf groaned inside.

Tanea's eyes widened when she sensed her wolf. She closed her eyes while shaking her head. Looking at her flushed face, it just turned me on more. God, I can look at her all day.

"Devak, you are behaving like a perverted wolf now" Tanea said, pouting her lips.

I laughed, throwing my head back before kissing her red cheeks " baby, I am already a perverted wolf" I was about to kiss her when the commotion outside stopped my action.

"What's happening?" I frowned.

"We should check it first," Tanea said, looking towards the door.

I nodded "let's go" I grabbed her hand and we walked out of the resting room.

"What's happening around?" I asked when I saw a few of the pack members running here and there with anxious expressions.

"Dev" Jion, the head trainer of the pack, walked towards me.

"Jion what's happening around?" I asked him. Jion and I are in same age. We are best buddy in the pack.

"I just arrived and heard some news"

"What news?" I frowned.

"It's something…..but we don't have a choice" his words puzzled me. What is he talking about?

"What? Are you going to tell me or not?"

"When I arrived the pack members said they heard a roar from the forest. The members thought it could be some wild beast hanging around. So they went to check inside the forest"

"So….?"

"The one who led the team was Savannah and she has not returned yet. The other members who went along with her searched for but couldn't find her in the forest"

"What?" My eyes were almost out of socket.

"Why did she lead the team there? That girl" I clenched my fist. "What the hell were they doing at that time to let her do such things. She is not aware of every part of the forest. What if something happens?" I shouted at my top lung.

The members who gathered in the field lowered their heads.

"Young Alpha, we urged her to stay here and let us go and check but she put up the authority and threatened us" a few men standing at the side replied.

"You should have informed me about it instead of obeying her words. Do you know how dangerous it is?" I glared at him.

"Young Alpha, we said that but Miss didn't agree. She said this are trivial matters so there's no need for us to inform you"

I closed my eyes with frustration. What am I going to do now? Mom will kill me with her bare hands. She said it strictly to take care of my sister. If she knows she will be too upset and along with her dad will be mad at me. I closed my eyes and shook my head. I really felt like plucking all the hair from my head. I felt Tanea hold my arm with her free hand.

"Don't worry. Nothing will happen to her. Besides, it's not your fault either. Instead of talking it will be better if we search for her. Maybe she lost her way somehow. We should not waste more time standing here"

I nodded. Right. It will be better to search for her than wasting time in talking and thinking about other things. I need to find her before something bad really happens. Though I know she is not weak or someone who will give up easily but as her brother my heart still feels anxiety and I am damn worried about her.

"Keep everyone alert here and arrange 4 groups to hunt down the whole forest. We need to find her no matter what" I ordered and Jion, who was standing at the side nodded immediately.

"Bring me along" Tanea said.

"No, the forest is not too safe" I shake my head.

"Devak Lang, do you want me to die with anxiety here?" She glared "we both were distracted and it wouldn't have happened if we stayed alert"

I rolled my eyes "who could have known that something like this will happen. That girl is crazy and stubborn too. Do you think I can control her?" I argued.

Tanea rolled her eyes "shut up and let's go" she said and dragged me with her.
