Claiming His Tempting Mate

Chapter 41

Reese's POV

"You....you slapped me?" I looked at him with wide eyes. He really did raise his hand for that bitch?

This is the first time Avan ever hit me. In the past no matter how much I made that bitch suffer or make

him angry, he would always ignore it. But today he he slapped me?

"Or what do you expect?" Avan roared. There was not any guilt or pain in his eyes yet, it was rather

filled with anger and disgust.

"I thought you were a smart woman and could understand the situation without needing me to tell you.

But now I realised how wrong I was about you. I have never seen such a dumb headed person before.

We wouldn't be in such a situation if you hadn't planned the baby thing"

"You are still blaming me for that?" I shouted at him. Now I am so angry that I want to shout till I lose all

my ability to shout. "How could you do that? Avan, don't forget that the child I am carrying is also yours.

So no matter what we both are responsible for this. Besides, don't act like you are innocent or

something because we both know you are not. When that bitch was here you always used me to deal

with her, you used my body, my heart and also my mind. I have done everything I could. You didn't

have any problems at that time, but now that I got pregnant you are pushing all the blame towards

me?"

"You were never pregnant all these years yet you chose the right time to get pregnant. Isn't it planned?

You want the Luna seat for yourself isn't it? Even if you have to do anything for that?" Avan mocked.

My anger raised as I glared at him. Usually I am always calm while dealing with him. But today

because of the pregnancy hormones and the fear I couldn't help but fell angry and desperate.

"What do you mean by that? I told you this baby is the result of our own conduct. You can't just blame

me for that"

"Oh yes" Avan laughed "of course it's the result of our own conduct because you planned it to make it

happen and you know what congratulations you have won the game" his eyes mocking me along with

his tone. I can't help but feel a sting in my heart.

My eyes blurred with unshaded tears as I looked at him. Is this the same sweet guy I fell in love with?

Though whatever I did was bad, I know it. It would affect our lives but the way he is speaking, it feels

like the child I am carrying is just a mistake of my own and he has nothing to do with.

"How could you say that Avan?" I roared, ignoring the pain in my belly that started to form. "How could

you say that? You are blaming me because I seduced you and got pregnant? But what about you?

Have you ever considered your own deeds before throwing the blame on my face?" I couldn't control

my anger. It felt like my heart and chest were burning with unstoppable fire.

I pointed my finger as I glared at him hard "you think you are the Alpha so no one will raise words on

your deeds? You are blaming me for seducing you but did you forget who was the first one to confess

having deep feelings towards me? It's you.... You were not satisfied with Savannah because she

couldn't transform herself. So you chose me, used my body to satisfy your lust and needs then again

used me to suppress her. When your plan of keeping her as substitute failed you started to blame me

for that, didn't you? How could you say that I tricked you when you are the first one who approached

me with your own plan. Do you think I don't know your intentions? Guess what I knew it in the first

place but never said anything because I was so much into you that I chose to ignore all these and

wanted to stay beside you. You were ignoring me all the time which increased my insecurities and I had

to take such action only to keep you with me. Now you are throwing all the blames on me while keeping

yourself clean? Wow, what a great idea you have to hide your own misdeeds'' I clapped before his

face.

"How dare you talk to me like that?" He roared but now I am too careless about it. I am not scared

anymore. Not him nor his anger.

I laughed "why? You can put blames on others' heads yet when others light your own deeds you can't

tolerate it?" I looked at him mockingly.

"Shut up, you piece of shit. I thought you are smart but no you are greatest fool in this whole world"

"Of course I am a fool" I nodded smilingly "I was a great fool that's why I kept thinking about you all the

time even after finding my own mate and rejecting him for you bastard" I shouted at him.

His eyes widened with shock "what? What did you say?"

"Why? You can't believe what you heard? Isn't it funny? I was such a fool to leave my own fated mate

and chose you instead. If I choose him, at least I could live a better life than suffering here with you" I

said as my voice started to fade. The pain in my abdomen started to increase. I rubbed my belly trying

to ease the pain. Is it because I was so angry and even shouted at my top lung?

Avan stood there dumbfounded. He looked at me with wide eyes. I was so devoted to him that I failed

to see through the situation and was not able to decide things clearly. Even if I want to go back to John,

I know it wouldn't work at all. I am carrying another man's baby and he already rejected me. Maybe he

could find a better woman for him. And here I have no choice left.

"Ahm..." I groaned as my belly started to burn.

"What happened?" Avan rushed towards me and held me in his arms.

"What's happening? Call the doctor" he roared.

"Ahh....." I screamed as the pain hit me again and then I felt something hot pulling in my lower part. My

eyes widened as I looked down. My breath stuck in my throat as I saw the red colour stained my cloth.

"No....."

Savannah's POV

I groaned as I tried to move my body. My body was in pain and there was a burning sensation in my

neck. Slowly opening my eyes I looked around. The familiar decoration blurred my eyes for a moment. I

am in my room. I looked around and found no one. Shaking my head I pushed myself up in a sitting

position. I touched my neck and felt like there's something like a bruise.

What was that? I frowned, questioning myself.

"You are up Mistress" Luina's warm voice reached my ear. The door opened and Luina walked in

holding a glass. There was a yellow liquid in it.

"I am glad you are awake. I was little worried when you are sleeping for such a long time"

Long time? What is she talking about now?

"What are you saying? How long have I slept?" I rubbed a certain area of my neck.

"You have been sleeping for 1 day, Mistress," Luina answered.

My eyes almost popped out of the socket. What? One day? Then suddenly a scene flashed in my

mind. Earlier I was arguing with Hardwick and our argument got heated before I tried to leave the room.

But unfortunately he didn't let me. Even he threw me on the bed and bit me so hard that I felt

unconscious and I didn't remember anything. That man. How could he bite till I am almost dead? I

wanted to curse him so badly now.

I held back my series of curses that were about to spill out of my mouth. Even if I am so angry right

now, I can't disrespect him in front of Luina. Afterall he is the Alpha and has much respect in the pack.

So I forced out a tight smile "where is the Alpha?" Although I tried hard to sound warm, the coldness

couldn't be hidden inside the tone.

"Master said he will return soon. There was someone who came from far to meet him so he went out

for the meeting" Luina replied.

Someone who came from far?I frowned at the thought. Who could it be? Even though I am living in the

Dark Forest, I am still not aware of many things. Like Delaney, Daisy and the connection between

them. I want to know about it. I want to know why Daisy was so hostile towards me when it was the first

time we encountered each other. Why she accused me of middling between Delaney and Hardwick?

And why Hardwick refuses to talk about it? What made him so angry last time that led our simple

talking to such a heated argument?

"Mistress please drink this" Luina's forwarded the yellow liquid glass towards me. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

I looked at the glass then looked at her "what's this?"

"This is Medicinal juice. Master left strict order to give you this once you are awake"

"Why is that? I don't remember I am sick or something?" I frowned.

"That I don't know. I only know that I need to give you this as per order" Luina looked troubled.

"Did he say anything else about this?" I pointed towards the glass.

"Master said it will help you rest well and relieve your pain"

I looked at the glass for a few minutes. Did he need this because of the pain he left on me? He was so

angry last time. But now after waking up he ordered her to give me this medicinal juice to help me relax

my body? I wanted to focus my point on the anger part but looking at the glass I could not help but feel

flattered already. What's happening? I can't even stay angry at him?

"Mistress, please drink this. If Master finds you didn't then he will scold me" Luina almost pleaded.

I sighed. Even though I can throw my tantrums but He will never leave Luina if she can't fulfill his

orders. Feeling helpless I grabbed the glass and drank down the liquid without stopping at all. Once the

glass was empty I wiped my mouth with the back of my hand. The sweet-sour test melted in my tongue

giving a weird taste. But to my surprise, after drinking I felt refreshed and lively. Looks like the drink

actually works.

"Would you like to take a bath?"

I nodded "yes please, it would be good"

"I will make the water ready" then she walked inside the bathroom.

Why did Hardwick suddenly get so aggressive and bite me so hard? I don't know what happened after

that. It was quite painful and my body felt numb at that time. I couldn't understand the point. Just then

Luina's voice ran from the bathroom. I sighed and got up from bed before walking towards the

bathroom. Right, it would be better to relax my tense body instead of thinking about so many things

together.

"Hi mom" I smiled as I picked up the phone.

"How are you doing darling?"

"I am good. What about you and dad?"

"We are fine except for Dev causing trouble" mom laughed.

"Oh, what did he do now?" I asked as I walked towards the balcony.

"Don't ask me. You better call him and ask personally. Your dad punished him with loaded work"

"He is ..." I shook my head. I miss him now.

"What happened sweetheart?" Mom asked from the other line.

"I miss him mom, you, dad, Tanea and all the memories I shared in the pack" I replied.

"Don't be sad darling. When one memory lingers in our mind, we create another one in the current

situation. All you have to do is relax yourself and calm your mind. You can't think properly if you have

disturbed mind"

"Thanks mom, I really needed your advice"

"Anything wrong sweetheart?"

I sighed "there's something I wanted to know but the current situation is not right"

"Then give it time" mom replied.

"Mom, I am too curious. And everytime it involves me"

"Then you need to trust yourself" mom said "if things are not going by your choice then try giving it

some time. Maybe what you wanted to know is more serious than you can imagine. Don't only think

from your point only, when you are paired you need to think with two minds and emotions. Trust is what

you need. Time will give you the answers you want"

I sighed again. What mom said was true. I really can't force Hardwick to tell me the truth about Delaney

if he is not ready to talk. He is my mate and we all have our own past. I really can't judge me through

his past. Since he is reluctant to tell me, all I could do is wait. Wait till the right time, wait till he decides

to reveal the truth himself without me forcing. Trust is a key to a relationship and I have to keep it

between me and my mate.

"Thanks mom, I was too curious to think rationally"

Mom chuckled "it happens darling. But I hope you now understood what you need to do"

Hearing her a smile appeared on my lips. Mom knows me so well. If it was not for her, I would have

done something that made me regret later. I shook my head at the thought.

"Savannah?" Mom's voice reached my ear.

"Yes, mom. I know what I should do"
