Chapter Seven

Leo was riding his car when he suddenly felt the air smelt different. And he started to sniff in the air and all the time he was screaming 'mate' in his mind.

He could perceive her, some lavender missed with baby's oil filled his nostrils, and he felt his wolf happy.

He turned off the ignition of his car and got down from it when the scent became intense. And he started to walk, following the scent in the air.

"Mate." He growled.

Suddenly he stopped. And he looked up and growled loudly, not minding if anyone was watching or not.

For a long time now, he had waited to have his mate and now she was there, right before him. And he would make her his immediately, he thought.

He started walking towards her again, and when they were close enough to lean into each other, he wrapped his arms around her and started sniffing her to confirm whether or not she was his mate.

"Mate." He growled, and he felt her tense under him. "You are mine."

Anne didn't say a word as she was still stunned by the turn of events. She had come to a foreign country, her unvisited paternal home, for a purpose only to be claimed by her enemy as his mate.

She was even more speechless by the possessive words he used.

You are mine.

She snapped out of her thoughts as she felt his teeth grazing on her neck, around the area she was supposed to be marked, and

a sudden electricity exploded between them and goosebumps spread on her body.

She pushed him when she noticed he was going to sink his teeth into her skin and she met his eyes which had a burning sensation as he was emitting on her.

Leo took in her appearance from her head too toe and a lazy smile curled up the sides of his lips.

It seemed that the moon goddess had decided to bless him with a perfect woman after waiting patiently for his mate.

He was 23 years old was still without a mate until then. He had waited patiently to find her all these years but he could not. And now he had found her, he was never going to let her out of his eyes.

He shook his head at the sudden realization that she had pushed him away while he was about marking her. He smiled. So many women would want him to claim them, but she did not.

That made him like her more.

But one thing his wolf sensed was that she was human. And he knew his wolf was happy with her like that, whether or not he found a wolf mate had never been a concern to him and he felt proud that his mate felt same way as him.

"Alpha." Elivinia said, cutting into his thoughts.

He turned to her with a cold look at the sound of the worried tone. His eyes looked upon her exposed body and he frowned harder. There was a time when he would have taken her straight in his and have his eyes feed on her lustful body. But not anymore. Things were different now that he had found his mate.

His eyes moved to the younger lady who seemed pretty uneasy herself and he frowned. She seemed to be suffering within herself, for her heart were heaving heavily.

How was it possible that they both ended up in the same place as his mate?

"Elivinia." He impatiently said, and he moved closer to Anne. He wrapped one arm around her waist while she rolled her eyes.

"You called her your M-A-T-E." Elivinia dragged out the last word as the locked up tears spilled down her face.

Oh! How tears irritated him.

If some men were moved by tears of a lady but to him, he thought it was a way of just drawing attention.

He thought he had only made it obvious to them that they were only there to warm his bed. And now that would stop as he had found his mate.

"Yes, you heard right." He chuckled, before gently sucking on Anne's neck. He trailed kisses on her neck and nuzzled her spot, and he smiled when she moaned.

He moved his hands smoothly on her skin and he felt her shudder under him.

"You are my." He repeated, and he rubbed her her cheek with his palm.

"What will become of me now?" The other girl cried, her eyes panicking by suck display of affection.

"That's a tough question." He pretended to think, with him thumb tapping on his chin. "But I think the right answer is to wait for your mate. You are still young Charlotte. So wait."

Anne watched the drama before her with a frown on her face. It was a pity for the Alpha to feel this indifferent but she said no word to anyone.

All she had to do was to call her Dad and inform him about the current situation. It was him who had made her come here in the first place, now things had changed, he was to provide a solution.

A new escape route.

But she couldn't ignore the sensation she felt each time he touched her or by the way her heart responded each time he called her his mate.

••~••

We had gone to his mansion as per his request. I hadn't decline for that had been my intention from the start. I had simply nodded my head and played dumb.

His two concubines were still sulking by the time we left but he hadn't flinched. While I felt a spring of happiness I also felt uneasy.

Maybe it was because of the fact that he had shown little emotion towards them. It had seem like they were only illusions in his life.

And the happiness sprout from the fact I was claimed by such a beautiful man, whose beauty would surpass those of most ladies.

I took in the appearance of the room he had given me. It was painted pink with lots of female touch to it. On the wall was hung was hung several paintings and one of them was a drawing of my idol, Kim Taehyung.

He had taken that picture when he had won the Melon Music Awards which featured the best OST songs. He belonged to a popular gang called the BTS members also known as the armies.

Somehow, I had managed to walk towards the painting. I moved my right hand to it and caressed his face. He had been a great inspiration for me in my musical world together with his fellow armies.

And how I loved them, especially Kim Taehyung who always seemed to melt the heart of all armies. He was so innocent in his looks and actions and also God dammed handsome.

While I was still wrapped up in my own world, I heard a loud growl before the door slammed hard. I turned around to see Leo had entered the room. And I also noticed he had some new clothes on.

I swallowed as I imagined wrapping my arms around him. He was so breathtaking that I almost stumbled to the ground while watching him.

The way the singlet hugged tightly to him, made me wonder how it would actually feel like being that way with him, revealing some beautiful aps that my hands itched to touch.

And from the way his hair was, in a spiky form, I knew he had just gotten out out of the bathroom.

He started towards me, and I stepped back when he growled again. A frown creased his forehead and I wondered what I did wrong.

I had done what he had asked me to do. Stay in the room and go no where.

I cocked a, What's wrong? at him.

He nodded towards the painting and it was my turn to frown. I didn't see what was amiss. Hadn't he been the one who had hung it on the wall in the first place? What had I to do with it?

Before I knew it he closed our distance and wrapped his arms around me. I closed my eyes for a moment while inhaling his scent. He smelled of leather soap which was mixed with his manly smell.

He smelled so nice and that was definitely a good way to turn a lady on and I would have jumped at the opportunity if he hadn't called me his mate.

"You are my." He said for the third time since we met, while he crushed my body against his.
