The One He Claimed by cooper (Sophie and Hunter) novel Chapter 92

“I don’t give a fuck about a war, what was that between you and that Beta.”

I frown. Robin is panting in his anger, his aura pushing out all around us. I tilt my head to the side and look at him, realizing that his wolf is on the edge. I’m not sure why, but I put my hand on his bare chest, wanting to soothe him.

“I’m pretty sure my brother told Camden he could have me as his mate, as long as he tamed me,” I say, shrugging. The others around us are slowly starting to head back, the patrols getting back to guarding the borders.

“He can’t have you,” he growls.

“I said as much, didn’t I?”

He yanks me against his body. “You’re mine, Nicole.

“I hate that name,” I say softly.

His voice softens. “You’re mine, Nikki.”

“I

“That remains to be seen, Alpha. And it very much depends on how you side on this public claiming law.”

“Mine!” he says, before his mouth claims mine in a kiss that is somehow soft and dominantly possessive at the same time.

Hunter

My mind is all over the place. First, I’m worried about Sophie. She and I had been side by side when we left the dining hall, but she hadn’t shifted and come with me. I knew the moment she arrived with Nikki, but she wasn’t in her wolf form. As worried as I am about her, I have to put it aside as I have two Beta females who rushed past me begging for sanctuary, and right behind them are three ranked wolves and another powerful wolf.

I had assumed that once Nikki knew her brother was here, she’d remain quiet, but I quickly learned that I was wrong. If anything, she seemed quite antagonistic toward her brother. At first, I thought she was instigating a war, but then she made the comment about her brother’s pack being unprotected. I need to make sure I never underestimate this woman. She strategizes like an Alpha, an Alpha who runs a pack. I’m not sure if anyone else would have threatened to overtake Alaric’s

pack and as his sister, she would have an easy claim, although she’s right, the laws are against

her.

I can tell that Robin isn’t happy with the Beta who tries to stake his claim on Nikki. While the two of them sort it out. I need to find out what’s wrong with my mate and deal with these Betas.

“Tiffany and Tammi, the two of you are now under my protection. Are you both okay?” I ask, coming up and pulling my mate to me. I need to touch her, make sure she’s alright. Her mind is swirling around, but nothing that makes sense to me.

They stare at Sophie, not answering me.

“It’s okay. I told you Hunter claimed me differently. Our relationship is very different than what you’ve experienced before,” Sophie tells them.

“Trust me, it is,” Letti says, shifting. I nod to one of my warriors who quickly gets some shirts in one of the many spots in the pack where we keep them for times when they’re needed, like this. I toss one to each of the twins, one to Letti, and one to Kayce who is standing over Allison’s wolf, his hand stroking her fur. I’m assuming he doesn’t want her shifting in front of all of us, since there are a lot of males around.

“So, are you both okay?” I ask again.

“Yes, thank you, Alpha,” they say.

As soon as Allison shifts, Kayce has the shirt over her head.

“Tiffany! Tammi!” Allison says, hugging the twins.

“Ali! Oh my goddess, Ali! We didn’t know you were here!”

“Why don’t you take them inside and get them something to eat,” I say. Sophie and I will be right there and then we’ll find you a place to sleep and talk about what you’d like from us.”

“Thank you, Alpha. Thank you for not letting them claim us publicly,” one of the twins says. I’m not sure who is who. Their scents are similar, but just a bit different. They both have a sweet citrusy smell to them, one is vanilla and lemon, the other is vanilla and orange. Once I connect their scent to their name, I’ll be better able to tell them apart.

“You’re welcome and I meant what I said to Alpha Alaric. You’re both under my protection now.

They nod and begin walking inside, Kayce following behind like a warrior protecting his queen. I wonder if that’s what I look like with Sophie.

“Probably,” she says, turning in my arms. “Can we sit? I’m guessing you’re worried about me not shifting?”
