Chapter 2: Eyes on her

Chapter 2

REMUS' POV

  

  Rhon talk about our parents and some staff the whole time, I was listening to him but my mind was not with him but with his girlfriend. I watched in wonder while she was eating. Why did the Moon Goddess choose her to be my mate? I want to know what's special about her but remembering that she was my brother's girlfriend, I didn't know if I should. I love Rhon a lot, it was not obvious but I loved him more than he ever knows, so how could I think about the mate bond if I would only hurt my brother. Thinking about that thought, I suddenly felt a severe pain right inside my chest. I knew clearly that I wanted to claim my mate. Feel her body touch mine and mark her.

 

  After we dined in, I toured them in the hotel. The building was huge so we could spend a lot of time touring the entire building, there were only a few things to see since this was only filled with rooms but it's still worth it. I had a lot of entertainment for all the customers and patrons here, library, play games area, like casinos and others, a library for bookworms, of course, and others. I love to give what customers could enjoy, to keep the reputation of this hotel, a top rank hotel in this City.

  

  "Wow! This is an incredible library," Lenna was amazed when we entered the library, it was absolutely huge and everything you could see were only shelves and books. All were well organized, actually, this place was the one  I loved the most;  I love the solitude and peacefulness of it.

  My heart sang the moment I saw Lenna's smile and was amazed by the place. My feet were voluntarily moved on their own and wanted to go near her, but I controlled myself as best as I could. I might be suspicious, but then her scent, the mate bond was driving me crazy.

  'Damn it!' I cursed.

  "Sir?" Lucas suddenly came.

  

 I turned to face him and asked what's the matter. 

  "Yes? Is there a problem?" I asked. 

  "We have a meeting later, it will start about an hour from now. Would you like me to reschedule?" Lucas asked. 

  

  Shoot! I forgot our pack meeting, I wanted to stay, but I think it's best to send them home before I could do something bad, like claiming this woman to be my mate. 

  

  "No, need, it's very important, the company will be at risk if I cancelled," I lied, making sure my brother could hear it to understand why I choose the meeting over him, "I'll be in the office, wait for me there," I commanded and he obeyed. 

  

 When Lucas was gone, I turned to my brother and I immediately saw his face frowned.

  

  "I'm sorry, but I guess, it's time to say goodbye. I really appreciate your efforts to visit me, but it's an important meeting I should attend," I reasoned out and my eyes immediately glanced at Lenna, my wolf was unhappy with my decision.

  

  *Damn! This bond-mate is driving me crazy, I didn't want to lose sight of her. I wanted her to stay, but I must admit, I should not let it happen.* I thought. 

  

  "Is that so, it's alright, I should have notified you first that we'll be arriving so we at least we had time to talk and arrange the time," Rhon responded. 

  

  "It's alright, there are more days to visit," I said and he groaned, "Yes, but you're always busy whenever I call you."

  I ignored his statement, I didn't want him to be more disappointed, so then I said, "I'll walk you to your car."

  

Rhon didn't answer and just nodded his head. I knew he was unhappy, upset. 

  

The pang in my heart was becoming more drastic, as we went closer and closer to where his car parked. I knew I had to let go of my mate, I would not see her again, I could not bear to hurt Rhon's feelings. I couldn't do that! I owed them big time so hurting him was too much.

  

"Goodbye Rem, I'll call you later," Rhon said. 

I nodded my head and replied, "Alright then, I'll promise I'll pick up, and will arrange days to visit you and our parents."

  

  Rhon seemed happy to hear what I just said, he was now smiling and that was a relief for me.

  

  "You promise?" he asked and raised a brow.

  

  "Yes... I promise," I shortly answered. 

  "Alright, I'm looking forward to it, goodbye, Rem. Take care always," he said and pulled me for a hug as he tapped my back. I didn't move and he stepped back. 

  

  "We gotta leave now before your meeting started,"  he smiled.

 He went to the other side of the door and opened it.

  "Lenna, time to go," he said to Lenna. He was sweet as ever. He opened the door for her and seeing him do that, I knew he loved her. I didn't need a lot of evidence to prove that. 

  Lenna turned to face me and I felt insanely nervous, she smiled and said, "It's nice meeting you." 

  I just seriously looked at her and didn't say a word. I knew I'm being rude to ignore her, but it was the best that I could do.

  

She seemed to realize I wasn't going to respond so she went inside the car and Rhon closed the door and went to the driver's seat. He said goodbye one last time before he started the engine. 

While they were leaving, my eyes couldn't move away from Lenna.   

I drew a deep breath when the car was no longer to be seen. 

I went back to my office and Lucas was there waiting for me. 

  

"Is there a matter, Alpha?" Lucas asked as I locked the door, to make sure no one will enter while I'm talking with the pack via video call.

  

"Why do you ask?" I wonder.

"You seemed surprised when you saw your brother's girlfriend, is she someone you know?" he asked.

  

I sighed, slumped on my rolling chair, massage my temple and said slowly, "That woman is my mate, Lucas..." 

  

His eyes widened in horror, "What? But she's a human, are you sure about that?" he asked, making sure what I told him was true.  

  

  I nodded, "Yes, I felt the bond mate," I responded and at that moment, he went speechless for a long time before he could continue to say a word.

  

  "So what are you going to do now?" he raised a question that I alone couldn't answer. 

  

"I don't know. Let me think about what I should do about her, it's hard for me to know as well that my mate is a human. For now, let me deal with the pack's problem, and don't tell the pack about it yet." I commanded and he nodded his head. He prepared all the electronics we could use to get in touch with the pack and I started the meeting with my betas who were in our Royal pack land, The Darkfur Nine Tails Pack.
