Chosen Mate The truth about the seers.
DYLAN"Careful how you slurp those noodles, young lady," I pointed out to her and she laughed. She had been laughing like that for a while now, and I didn't know why but it felt warm and very cozy. I wasn't used to eating on the table with a second party, but she was proving that fact to be a lie because it just felt natural with us."I don't think that I will ever be able to eat anything from my own cook anymore." She voiced out as she munched on the meal in front of her."Doesn't your chef cook hers the way you want her to?" I asked, and she nodded in affirmation."I mean I like the fact that she's constant and that she always has a lot of things to offer but when it comes down to tasting, I think my taste buds are different." She told me as she continued eating."Well I'm glad that you like my chef and if it makes you feel any better, then you could share a meal with me whenever you feel like it." I didn't know why I said what I said, but I just felt that it was right for me to do
Chosen Mate Analyzing feelings.
DYLAN"She finally told you about it?" Kavan asked wide-eyed, which was followed by a deep release of breath with his eyes closed. "Thank goodness! I thought that I was going to carry this heavy burden to my grave. It feels so good to know that she finally told you.""I know how hard it must have been for you to keep such a thing from me knowing that you never hide anything from me, so thank you very much Kavan. And thank you for looking after Iris as well when she asked you to," I said to him, and he brushed me off.I had sent for Kavan after breakfast with Iris to tell him about my plans to have Iris taken to a seer and also to discuss other matters of the pack with him, and he was surprised that I knew about the secret that Iris had been carrying for a very long time. We were both going through some files that I had asked him to come with as well."You don't have to thank me for everything I do for you. We have been best friends since we were little. So as long as it demands it, I

DYLAN"Did I come at a bad time?" She asked in a soft voice, but I pretended to be focused on what I was doing. Wait a minute, since when did I consider her voice to be soft? Was this some kind of joke because if it was, then it wasn't funny to say the very least. Why did I care if her voice was soft or not? And why was I affected by her mere presence in the room? I didn't want to prove Kavan right but at this point, I think his words were slowly starting to get to me."Of course not, my lady." Kavan winked at me before going to fetch her from the door. "You came at the exact right and perfect time. If I didn't know any better, then I would have said that you and the Alpha are sharing some sort of telepathic connection to know that he was actually expecting you to be here by this particular time.""He was expecting me to be here?" She asked in disbelief. Her eyes glanced at me briefly from where she stood. "Why does that sound strange?" She muttered, but I heard her clearly. I always
Chosen Mate Trusting the enemy.
DYLANWe got outside and made our way into the car that was prepared to drive us to where we were headed. I still couldn't get my head wrapped around what Kavan had said back there concerning Iris. There was no way that I was in love with her. I only married her to fulfill my end of the bargain as I have promised the moon goddess. I didn't marry her out of love and neither did she. We were both victims of the same circumstances.And why would I love a wolfless woman? There were tons of women out there with great abilities that would have been beneficial to me but I ended up with her instead. It was like my life has been programmed to only live for suffering, pain and hurt. Her kind killed my parents in cold blood when I was a child. They took away my people and made me the very last wolf to survive and they thought that it was going to change because the goddess brought Iris as my wife?Not a chance. I would make sure to get back at them though. No matter what happened, I would make s
Chosen Mate A shocking revelation.
IRISThe minute we got into the place, I was stunned. It didn't look like anything I had imagined. The place felt warm and cozy and everything was kept in place. When Dylan told me the stories concerning the Seers, I had very low expectations because I thought that they would be people who were cold-hearted and probably ruthless to a fault. I thought that they might even be cave people who might bring in ridiculous notions in order to see us. Hell, I even thought that we would walk in on a fight the minute they suspected our presence, but all I saw were nothing but peaceful people living happily.I could tell that Dylan was more relaxed than when we got here because he too felt the same things.A little girl rushed up to hold Dylan's legs and we both crouched down to her level. She had green eyes and her hair was a curly mess."Good afternoon, Alpha Dylan and Luna Iris." She greeted us, and we were both taken aback. How did she know our name? This was literally the first time that I w
Chosen Mate The words of the seer.
IRISI couldn't believe what I had just heard. I thought that I had heard a lot of things in my entire life but this will be the first time that I have heard something as despicable as this, and I still couldn't bring myself to believe that she was indeed being serious about what she had just said."You sent me those visions?" I repeated, and she nodded her head in response. The look on her face told me that she was being serious about it and that she wasn't joking at all."But why would you send me those visions? Do you know how they affected me? I almost lost my life because of the intensity of how they came each time you sent them. I thought that I was going to die from the pain and hurt it came with," I complained bitterly."I am deeply sorry, Luna Iris, and if there is any way that I can apologize for doing what I did, then I will—""Then why did you do it?" Dylan asked on my behalf. I was thankful that at least, he was on my side on this one because there's no way I could face a
Chosen Mate More words from the seer.
IRISDylan stood up to leave, and I followed him outside without uttering a single word. I knew that he must be feeling bad concerning the news that he had just heard from the seer herself. He had been in a lot of dilemma lately after the last attack that happened and he has been trying to find ways to keep the pack's security firm and tightened so that it wouldn't happen again, only for him to hear now that there was more to come and that he should be prepared for the worst. I could only begin to imagine what he was going through at this very moment. Being a leader was not easy and his job has just taken a turn for the worse.Now, I was slowly starting to get a glimpse of what his world has always been about and why he was always so uptight and serious all the time. He was made a leader at a very young age after losing his parents and had to take on too much responsibility from a young age. All his life, he has been through so much, and now it was only going to get worse. And to thin
Chosen Mate Switching up.
DYLANWe walked back to the path that separated both realms from each other and I was surprised to see Kavan still waiting for me alongside the other guards that we had come with. Judging from their faces, I could tell that they were tired and worn out but still chose to remain there, waiting for us. It gladdened my heart to know that at least I had trustworthy people in my life that cared about my safety and my well-being and also had the nerve to sacrifice their time just to wait for me and to ensure my safety."Alpha!" Kavan gasped and ran up to us. He embraced me, and I could practically hear his heart beating rapidly. My best friend could easily take down an army and ward of any attack but his greatest weakness and strength had to be me. Growing up, we had always been with each other and had always taken care of each other to the best of our abilities. We had always made sure to be there for one another when it was needed and that was why when something happened to one of us, it

Chosen Mate Left alone.
Iris.I watched the Alpha Arnold walk in with the man who had refused to grace me with his presence for a few days now. I didn't know why, but I had gone from not wanting to have anything to do with the man to simply missing his presence around.But then again, as much as I missed his presence, there was still this warning in a part of my heart that kept telling me that I should not give him the chance to get too close with me. Otherwise, I would be playing with fire. I didn't even know what that was supposed to mean, but I wanted to pay attention to my sixth sense. In a way, it had helped helped me out of trouble.A sigh escaped my lips as I turned to pick up a handkerchief so that I would be able to wipe sweat off my face. I was alerted to how well I was healing now. If it was before, rather than that sigh that I let out, I was sure that it was going to either be a groan or it was going to be me being in tears from the excruciating pain that would take over me."Let me help with tha
Chosen Mate Companionship.
Dylan.I woke up with my head banging hard like I had spent the entire night handling some dangerous mission that left my life on edge. I groaned as I got up from the bed and made my way to the...Wait? A bed? How had I gotten onto a bed? The last thing I remembered was Alpha Arnold trying to communicate with me and me rudely cutting him off. The events that follwed after that were a bit not so clear to me."Are you okay now?" I heard the gruff voice of the man I was just thinking about. I turned around and saw him sitting down on a chair, a book in hand - book that I was so sure he was not reading - and his attention duly focused on me. I looked around and saw that we were in the same hotel room we had gotten for almost a week in a row now. Or was it three days? My brain was still a bit foggy, so I couldn't think straight.But how? How did he end up being with me? Was he not supposed to be with Iris?"Is something wrong with Iris?" I asked him without even stopping to think."Oh, so
Chosen Mate A drunk Alpha Dylan.
Alpha Dylan. Days after the doctor told me those words, my heart was no longer in the right places. I lost track of myself and barely managed to keep my shit together.The possibility that the woman might never remember who I was? How absurb! Except that I knew there was nothing absurb about the matter. In fact, since I got that revelation, my mind had been far away. Why?Because every time I stepped into Iris's room, I got that look that said that I was a nobody to her, so she couldn't overly be concerned about my presence. While I tried my best to act like the words and actions didn’t get to me whenever I was with her, once I was out of her room, my heart always sank down.It was so bad that even Arnold had begun to notice the difference to me. Now, I hadn't gone to the hospital for two days in a roll after telling Arnold to only contact me if there was something wrong or if my signature was needed for something.While I was at the hospital, I tried to urge the doctor to continue
Chosen Mate Memory loss.
Alpha Dylan. Just like the first time she would ever ask me that question, my mind still went blank again. How could she always ask me the same question every time she set her eyes on me?"Iris, it is me, Dylan," I said in a lame attempt to make her remember. The doctor came over to my side and moved around me to get to her. Once he was close, he began to examine her thoroughly. Unlike the first time, no one told me to move my ass out of the way. I waited, watching as the doctor used some sort of touch to check her eyeballs, roamed his fingers in front of her, and asked her a few questions also."How do you feel now?" He asked when he was done with his examination. He had his hand on the report card that was always seated at the edge of the bed. "A bit of a headache and pain," Iris mumbled out. "Dry throat also." She added after a while.The doctor nodded and wrote some things in the card. Once he returned the card back to the usual position, he turned to look at me first, then bac
Chosen Mate Danger!
Alpha Dylan.I rushed into the hospital the next day, a few minutes past 10 in the morning. Or was it 11 AM already?I had no idea that I was extremely tired until after I got to the hotel, took a long needed shower, sank into bed and just dozed off instantly. The only thing that was not making me panic was the fact that there was no call from Arnold yet, which could only mean that Iris was fine."Good morning, sir." The receptionist, whom I didn't bother to find out her name, said to me as a form of greeting when she saw me. I nodded my head to her before letting out a short, "good morning to you, too." And then, I was rushing to get to the ICU so I would be able to see Iris for myself. "Arnold, how is she?" I called when I got closed enough for him to hear me."You are here." He said gently. He was standing close to the glass area, almost as if he was just checking her out. "There has been no casualty since you left. In fact, she opened her eyes about three times already, but they
Chosen Mate Taking turns to watch over Iris.
Alpha Dylan.Five days of no show. Five days of no reactions. Five whole days of waiting for a miracle.Iris had not shown any form of life or even danger ever since she got wheeled into the operation room for over five days now. At a point, I became so worried about her state of just lying down, looking almost lifeless. I didn't know if I should be worried about that or if it was a good news in itself. The doctor had told me that she was responding to treatment, and it was good that she was not showing any reason for crisis as that could be bad for her.Now, I was just standing outside the ICU section she was put in and watching her through the glass wall. The first day after she got in here, I visited her for the number of times allowed. The second day, I did the same. The third day, I came in once and allowed Arnold to use the second time. The fourth time, I couldn't find the courage in me to go in there and look at her when she looked like she was in a lot of pain, if the way she

Giselle."He failed," I muttered to Juliana the moment I got into the mansion and settled on the couch in the living room. I didn't need to tell her some more about whoever it was who failed. From the way she gasped softly, I knew that she already knew just exactly who I was talking about."I never thought he would ever fail." The maid said as a way of response.I never thought that he could either.From the way the man had handled me and the ruthless edge he had around him, I had been so sure that Beta Daniel would not have been able to survive an attack from the rogue. But somehow, that hope had been dashed."He did injure Beta Daniel heavily, though." I sighed as I remembered just how bloodied the man had been. Heck, he had even given the authority to someone else because he needed to recuperate completely. If only the rogue had managed to deal one deathly blow to the man, all my problems would be solved by now."Maybe Beta Daniel had someone help him out of the blue? Perhaps that
Chosen Mate Acting nice.
Beta Daniel. I hurried back to the pack, my blood still dripping from my injured arm to my shirt and trousers. In fact, I purposely held the arm over the clothing so that the blood would drip more on them, and it would look like I was injured in more places than just the arm.The moment I got to the gate, I was stopped by the guards who immediately camouflaged around me whole looking around, their swords ready just in case there was a danger lurking around."At ease," I said, making my voice sound low and disgruntled. "I made sure to lose the man before coming back to the pack," I told them. It would do no good to deliberately make them worry when I knew that all was well.Or could it not be?For all I knew, the other man could have played on my intelligence and was just waiting for the right time to strike me. Or maybe he was even interested in invading the pack and dominating it so that he would be the new Alpha."Still, do not let your guards down," I said as an afterthought. Afte
Chosen Mate The deal.
Beta Daniel. I was still lost in my thoughts and concern for the pack that I almost didn't notice that I was already in the forest which bordered the two packs. A squirrel made a sound, and I paused as I looked at a tree and saw the said squirrel trying to get some kind of fruit which looked like nut. Or more like trying to crack it. An army of ant interrupted the squirrel on the mission it was after. The squirrel, sad that his mission was intercepted, raced from the branch of the tree to another in order to get the ants to leave him, still holding on to rhe nut like it's light depended on it.I laughed at the small event I had just witnessed. I tsked and ignored the squirrel and the ants and began to make my way back to the pack. I tensed when I noticed that there was a movement behind me.It was the same kind of walking pattern I had noticed before when I was going over to Alpha Arnold's pack. I doubted if it was the guards of the pack or any pack for that matter since this part of
