His Plump Mate (by Buchanan) novel Chapter 55

Chapter 55

Austin POV

I’m practically walking on air after leaving the training grounds. My mate is incredible. She’s a natural Luna. She speaks with confidence, fights with strategy, and is sexy as fuck while doing it too.

I can’t wait for tonight to drive my little minx crazy. Somehow, I think she will surprise me tonight too. But all that can wait.

I told Renz to meet me in my office by noon with his list for the Luna Guard. As I’m making my way to my office, Ceraline comes walking up to me. I haven’t seen much of her around lately, and I’m grateful. She is annoying. Not the annoying like a little sister kind of way either. She is bordering on mental status annoying. I honestly don’t know how much more I can take.

“Austin,” she purrs. “I’m so glad to see you alone. I wanted to talk to you.” She says, trying and failing to be seductively. You would think she would get the point after years of rejection, that I’m not interested in her. I’ve also been very public in my affection to Rebel. Either way, she wants to talk. I just hope it’s not a waste of my time.

“What is it Ceraline?” I say with disinterest.

“I understand that you are putting together a Luna Guard for Rebel, and I would like to be considered for a spot. She says, surprising me. Not surprising me in a good way but more like, she has a lot of audacity, or she is more surprisingly stupid than I thought.

“Not necessary. I already have my final selection from Renz, and we will finish our selection shortly. Besides, I don’t have confidence that you would be willing to guard your Luna, based on your past confrontations.” I say to her before turning around to walk away.

“I want to make amends with Rebel, Austin.” She says. She’s a little too insistent.

“What are you playing at Ceraline? I know you don’t like LUNA Rebel.” I say, emphasizing Luna to her. This first name basis without respect for her ranked members is going to stop. “By the way, I’m Alpha Austin to you. The only person who gets the liberty of calling me by my first name is my mate. You are not her. Excuse me.” I say again, this time not stopping to listen to anymore nonsense from her. But of course, she wants to be stubbor and comes up to me again. I swear I’m trying to be nice, but she is wearing on my patience.

“Alpha Austin,” she purrs again, “I am serious about wanting to be part of the Luna Guard. I am a Beta’s daughter after all. I also know how to fight and defend. I can prove my worthiness to you.” She says batting he eyelashes and moves to try and put her arms around my neck.

I’m about to push her away and tell her no again, but there is a growl that comes from behind me, and I know it’s Rebel and I can feel her anger and maybe jealously. But she has nothing to be jealous about. Still, I like that she is possessiveness over me.

“Ceraline! Get your filthy paws away from my mate before I detach them from your body.” My mate snarls.

“Luna,” Ceraline says, “You misunderstand. I was just talking to Alpha about being part of your Luna Guard.” There is a little flash of a sneer in her eyes, but she covers it quickly.

Rebel laughs humorously, “Ceraline, you can’t even defend yourself against me. You are weak and desperate for
