Chapter 106
Still in Rolf Titus Point of View:
“What?!!! Brother?!”
The next day when Gwen’s condition was better and could join breakfast in the dining room with the others, who were smiling with relief to see her able to get out of bed and have her IV removed, I and the Alpha pair who talked about our plan yesterday would inform her about what we had agreed, hoping Gwen would not mind.
Honestly, it was actually me who wasn’t sure I could stop myself from touching her affectionately because she was my mate and I had always been the one who had touched her.
Alpha Drake, who knew that I was the one who had to restrain myself, could only smile sheepishly when Melissa warned me not to be too affectionate towards Gwen while I was there.
“You know the possibility of people liking our mate will be big right? Why do you agree with this proposal?!‘ since the suggestion about the informing of Gwen being my sister made Wolf unpleasant, since last night my head hurt hearing his nagging about what might happen when all werewolves thought Gwen was a werewolf without a mate.
Does he think I don’t know that?!
Ugh… just the thought of a guy looking at her makes me want to tear apart anyone who dares to get close to her. Yeah… Melissa was right, I held my ground the day any guy tried to get close to my mate while I was there.
Werewolves are notoriously possessive of their mates, so while it’s easy to say to hold back, I’m not sure if I can do it. God… What did I agree to?!
However, I have to do it for Gwen’s health, this is the only path we’ve found and with her condition getting weaker, I don’t know if we can take another path?
“You’re taking this dangerous path, which means you’ve thought carefully about the worst case scenario, my king?” Luna Lisa asked me, yes, she knows how possessive an Alpha can be to their mate and I’m the Alpha king, my wolf has the biggest ego of the Alphas where it would be hard for him to accept his mate being ogled by another male werewolf.
“I did it for her” I said firmly even though Wolf was currently shouting disagreement in my head which made me wince in pain.
-Sh*t!
I quickly looked over at my mate who hadn’t said anything the whole time we were there and she just sat quietly with the food on her plate as if something was bothering her.
Did my plan make her sad?
What was she thinking right now?
Continuing to stare at my mate, I waited until the food was finished before inviting her to walk out so we could talk alone.
I continued to hold her hand as we walked together towards the park beside the palace, knowing that it used to be her favourite place and as expected she smiled as she entered her favourite spot.
“Did something bother you? You seems extremely quiet”
I ventured to ask her and made her let out a long sigh before sitting down on one of the nearby park benches.
She said nothing for a while and just looked towards the horizon.
I kneel in front of her and take her hand to place it on my lips so I can kiss it gently “What’s wrong, Gwen?”
She finally turned her head towards me and met my gaze.
Why does she look sad?
“Tell me” I urged quietly
“Titus…” She sighed and cupped my cheek which made me rest my head there “Why take such a huge effort to cure me? I feel like I’m just a burden.” I have to blink several times to know if what she said is what I thought I truly heard.
Burden?!
Why does she even think she’s a burden to me?! Does she know what will happen if she…..
“I’ll take whatever it takes to get you healed Gwen” I said firmly and she just turned her head away which annoyed me so I cupped my hands in front of her this time so she looked back at me “Gwen… You’re not and never have been a burden to me, I’m sure you’d do the same if you were in my shoes. You’re my mate Gwen! And I would take the most dangerous path if it meant I could fix you!!!” I almost growled in anger to know she had thought st* pid thoughts like that.
“But you

will be known as a man without a mate, Titus!” She flinched and quickly shut her mouth after she said it which

made me realise that what she was worried about was….
Unable to hold back my smile, I gave a passionate peck knowing she had a sense of jealousy knowing it wasn’t just me who was worried about us being known as werewolves without mates.
