He could smell her arousal while she was checking us both out. She was definitely attracted to us, but she still ran. Why? something is definitely going on. It makes sense now why we weren't allowed to ask any questions. Councilman George obviously knows more than he was willing to share.
He heard her say goodbye, and he stopped the door with his hand, holding the door open. He was trying to stay calm, which wasn't like him, but she was keeping him calm. He could feel it.
She paused and let go of the door, and she walked back into the cottage.She told them to come in. We followed her in and sat down, could see she was just packing to leave, again why? why are you leaving?. She looked up
"It's a long story. I don't want to get into it, but I can't be your mate it's not safe for you or your pack, I must go," Freya said.
Why not safe for us?
"You don't need to know those details. Just know it's for the best, so who's rejecting first? let's get this over with." Freya said.
A massive roar ripped through the cottage, Zack had jumped up and ran across the room, and she moved so quickly, effortlessly out of the way of him. He'd never seen a wolf move so quickly before, she's clearly was not a wolf.
We were both more than shocked. He'd never met a shifter that could out manoeuvre him or Zack before. How did you do that? The quick move was enough to snap Zacks wolf out of his anger. Malachite didn't like what he was hearing from her.
"Sorry, Freya, my wolf didn't like what you said. He wants to claim what his now." Zack said.
What shifter are you? she frowed. "I'm a white jaguar, the last white jaguar." Freya said. We both froze, and that can't be possible they died off years ago. "I know about 70 years, but that's what we wanted everyone to think." She said. Why?
"To stop someone from hunting me." she said. But who? wait, so that makes you 70 years old? "No, I'm actually 75 years old. my family died 70 years ago. I was 5 years old. I can't explain anymore, I shouldn't have said anything at all. It doesn't concern you. It's my private life. I don't know you or trust you, so stay out of it." Freya said.
You came here, Freya, Zack blurted out. "My uncle sent me here." she said. Just then, her phone rang, "it's probably my uncle." She was searching on the floor for her phone, picked it up.
"Yes, uncle George, I'm here. Sorry I dropped the phone. " she was frowning.
"What is going on, Freya?" he said. We could hear the conversation. "Uncle, I am fine. Have you found me somewhere else to go?" she asked. George was silent for a moment. "I'm on my way. Freya, i will arrive in about 4 hours. We will dicuss it when I get they. Please don't leave Freya? promise me. " George asked. She exhaled "yes uncle il still be here." She responded reluctantly.
She hung up the phone and looked more than annoyed. How about we stay and talk, get to know each.
"I said i would stay and wait for my uncle. I didn't say I wanted to talk to you two." Freya said, angry.
Please, Freya, we are your mates, it wouldnt hurt you to have a conversation with us. "And if I say no?" she was a scowling.
"We'll, what are you afraid of?" Zack said. She gave Zack a look that could kill. Zack, are you trying to get punched? he said to him through mind-link.
He stepped in, how about we compromise, in 2 hours you come to our office and we can talk before your uncle arrives? "Why would I do that?" she said.
Well, what you got to lose Freya?. "Fine, I'll come over in 2 hours." She said. He smiled. We will see you at our office. It's on the ground floor of the pack house, walk through the main doors and straight forward, you will see two large black doors. You can't miss it.
We will leave you be, Zack come on let's give her sometime. We left and walked back to the university, where we left Zacks truck. We could have run, but walking made some of the time pass. We reached the truck and drove back in silence. We walked into our office. It was only an hour later, and we still had another hour to wait. This was torture.
"Do you think she'll come?." Zack asked.
Yes, her uncle is coming, he didnt think she'd want to disappoint him. We sat and waited, he mind linked our head omega and asked her to arrange a room for the councilman George and to bring some food and drink, for when Freya got here. 30mins later, his omega walked in with Snacks, juice, tea, and coffee for them, he didnt know what she liked.
It had been 2 hours, and she still wasn't here. "Do you think she's backed out?." Zack asked. No, he thinks she's just taking her time. He, Zack, and her uncle have basically made her come here. She clearly has some sort of trauma and doesn't trust us with it. "Well, we will have to prove to her she can, and we want her, we do, don't we?." Zack asked, worried. Yes, we do, Zack. We just have to take it slow with her.
"Ha, that's easily said. Malachite is very eager to mark and mate her now." Zack said. He laughed, joining the club it took all his strength inside that cottage to keep Onxy inside of him. "Well, you handled it better than me, thought Malachite was going to have her by force. What time are we on?." Zack said.
It's just over 2 hours, She will come she probably just taking her time. The gate guard mind linked him to say councilman George is here. He could see a car driving up the lane toward to pack gates. Her uncle is on his way, so she will be here. If not, he thinks councilman George will go looking for her.
It's was anything 10 minutes before she walked into the pack house. He could smell her scent she was taking her time, trying to claim by some control that we've clearly taken away from her. We need to get to the bottom of this. He pulled the trolley round near the sofas in case she was hungry, she run out of the party so quickly, wasn't sure if she had time to eat, or even if the cottage kitchen was stocked never looked. We both heard steps towards the door and then a gentle knock.
