Fated To The Alpha by Jessica Hall Chapter 149
“ I meant no disrespect, I was curious” He shrieks rubbing his thigh and Sage shockingly growls at Zane for kicking him.
“No need to kick him, he is just a boy” She snaps at him making me smirk though Casen looked offended now.
“ I assure you Luna I am no boy” He says wiggling his brows at Sage this time Malik who is kneeling beside him smacks him up the back of the head.
Sage laughs softly, raising an eyebrow at him before shaking her head at his words but doesn’t seem bothered by him. Even I found it hard to be mad at the twins with their angelic baby faces and it seemed luck was on his side because if he upset her she didn’t show it and instead answered him.
“Wolfsbane ” She answers and he hisses and grits his teeth and I see a few of the men cringe, all of us have rubbed up or against wolfsbane in the past and know how painful it is. Poor Casen would probably feel like shit if he knew the extent of how she obtained those burns.
Sage stares at them curiously and I could feel how clammy her hand was becoming, hearing her heart rate rising but she remained at my side looking at each of them.
“Did something happen?” She asks, looking at me for an answer.
“Just rogues on the borders, they won’t get in” I reassure her and she nods.
“Dismissed” I tell them, turning to Sage but she was staring at the moon now before turning back and watching them leave, moving between the houses and back to the borders.
“That boy seems nice,” She says.
“His name is Casen and yes he is. Trouble maker but he is a good kid unfortunately he has a tendency to speak before thinking” I tell her and she shrugs.
“It didn’t bother me, I could tell he meant no harm by asking, I would be curious too” she says. I pull her inside out of the cool breeze and shut the door.
“How many are on border patrol tonight, don’t you think he is a little young to run patrol?” She asks.
“20, he likes doing it, keeps his mind off everything plus it is a full moon. They hate being locked inside on a full moon” She nods before looking at me.
“Were you going for a run with them, you can go. I will be fine on my own” She says.
“No, I was just checking on them, besides Malik is probably kicking his ass right now for what he said” I laugh, knowing Malik, he is probably giving him a tongue lashing while kicking his ass to the border.
“He wouldn’t hurt him though?” She asks worriedly.
“No, Malik is his carer, Malik looks after him and his twin brother. We may be rough around the edges but we are not child abusers Sage ” She lets out a breath before walking toward the kitchen and I follow after her and watch as she walks to
the fridge and grabs a bottle of water out before offering me one. I shake my head and she closes the fridge. I look at the clock on the door of the fridge and see it is only 3AM. Damn Zane waking me up.
“Are you coming back to bed?” She asks, looking up at me. Her eyes flicker black for a second and I know Sierra is observing and Donnie instantly reacts to seeing her, lurching forward and making me stumble forward as he fights for control. He had been constantly pestering me wanting to speak to Sage so he could apologise. I force him back with
a growl and he recedes whining in my head.
I half expected her to freak out but she was just staring at me curiously. I grip her hand tugging her back to the bedroom. She instantly removes my dressing gown and climbs in bed before placing her bottle of water on the bedside table.
