When We Were Mates (Demetra and Emris) novel Chapter 201

Chapter 201

Alpha Emrix.

Contd.

I’m still breathing hard when Demetra knocks on the bathroom door

This is what? Fifteen minutes after what she just put me through. My body is still humming. I’m technically down there-

“Come in.”

“Slade has found Sabrina. We should be going downstairs before they think-

“Before your daddy thinks you’re here with my jewel in your mouth?”

I turn off the tap in the mirror and Demetra rolls her eyes at me.

“I’m going downstairs without you.”

I don’t let her do that. I come out of the bathroom at once and I can’t even look this she–wolf in her eyes. How on earth she manage to make an Alpha beg like a beggar? It’s not like this is the first time she’s turning me to this but this time around, I didn’t even last two minutes…

“Awww….my trybrid is cute.” Demetra places her hands on my waist and raises her knee up just to graze me there all over again. I flinch and she chuckles all the way out of the room. By the time we get outside the table is already set and I walk normally. I genuinely hope I’m walking normally and I don’t look like what just happened to me.

“I know you didn’t take that long to find Demetra.” Slade says as I approach.

“You don’t know what your sister just did to me-

“Hit you on the knee?” Slade says and walks ahead.

No. Don’t tell me it’s obvious that I’m walking like something is wrong with my groin-

1 clear my throat and try to crack my bones for a moment to nurse that

After we’re all seated, we all do a cheer toward the center of the table for the newly engaged. Live music begins to play somewhere in the landscape of the Lion Pride Pack. It’s a love violin sound. Usually, I hardly care about things like this but watching Demetra on the grass, cutting cake with Sabrina, watching the kids run circles blowing bubbles.

My mom and Allison are standing close with wine glasses that’s catching the last gold of the sunset..it’s beautiful Life used to be dark and exhausting in ways I don’t let myself think about often. And it’s become something I genuinely couldn’t have imagined for myself a few years ago.

This is what a perfect life looks like.

“Man, in a few hours this would be over.” Alpha Teslon says. “Pack duties.”

I couldn’t agree more.

Silver joins us back around the table as wind moves the table cutleries for a moment.

“Tell that to Beta. I do most of Emris’s work.”

“Have you heard? About the barbarian pack

Slade, Silver, and I all go still wultaneously

This is something you don’t say in front of the Lunat if you don’t drænt of my Luna‘

“Did you say Barbarian Wolves?” Demetra asks

I clear my throat, trying to give Teslon the sign

“Yeah. Teslon doesn’t catch it. “They are migrating. And usually, when they are migrating, i pack to take over. Those bastards are evil in a way most people have never personally

I see the look on Demetra’s face like she wants to ask more questions.

“Is the cake good?” I get up, trying to change the subject.

“Since when do you eat cake?”

Right at the end, the kids are already knocked out when I place them into the car. Demetra is saying goodbye to Seth and I lock eyes. I simply give him a nod because I see Alpha Ronin watching, and I want the man to see me as who can let things go.

Emris has been up since last night when the alarm came up all around our territory. The alarms are for emergencies to make sure every member of the Black Covenant Pack sees the broadcast that states they need to be indoors.

“Just do as I say.” Emris voice is harder than usual.
