My Pet Mate

Chapter 34

*Adam's POV*

"How is your control doing?" Ray asked as he refilled my glass of whiskey.

I groaned, "It's fine. Anna helps immensely."

"But?" Ray pressed, making me growl.

"It would help if we completed the bond." I admitted.

Don't get me wrong, I would wait for Anna until the end of time. I just didn't know if the rogue part inside of me agreed.

Ray bit his cheek, "Adam, you know that this isn't healthy. You're still rogue, that part will keep growing no matter what. If you don't complete the mate bond there is still a chance you'll go feral!"

"I don't need to be reminded of that!" I growled.

He was right of course, only a complete mate bond would be able to get rid of the rogue part inside of me. It's just how it worked. Right now I didn't have a pack. When the mate bond is complete, technically it will be a pack of two.

"I'm just trying to help." Ray spoke a lot softer.

I sighed, "I know, sorry. I just don't want to push her. She's had a bad past with that."

Ray nodded, "I understand. How bad is it for you as of now?"

I frowned and bit my lip, "Not that bad. I can feel it getting stronger, but Anna seems to dim it down every time I see her."

"Maybe if you explained it to her?" Ray suggested.

I shook my head, "She's not completing the bond out of fear or pity for me. I can handle it. I've done so for six years."

Ray took a sip of his drink, "The fact that it's been six years makes it more dangerous. If you were to snap, nothing could stop it."

"I won't let it snap." I growled out as I took a sip of my own drink. "I know this all sounds ridiculous but I'm not forcing her into this. I can hold it back a little while longer."

"And how long is she planning on waiting?" Ray questioned.

I looked at the liquid in my hand before chugging it back, "I hope not too long." I said with a sigh.

Ray was about to say something when his eyes glazed over slightly and he started mind linking. He frowned before regaining focus and looking at me, "Apparently, we have to come and check something out in the living room."

I raised an eyebrow, "Why?"

"All Jace said was: 'there is a Luna at work and we had to see it.'" Ray explained.

I shot up from my chair. There is only one Luna on these pack grounds and that's my Luna. I pushed my way through a crowd and started to feel uncomfortable. What if something bad happened again?

I started to hear my mate's angelic voice and calmed slightly, she didn't sound upset or distressed at all. I managed to push myself through the crowd and was met with an interesting sight.

Anna was in front of a large table with a whiteboard behind her. She was talking animatedly as she pointed to the words she had written on it in her graceful handwriting. She then looked at the group of teenagers that sat around the table or had placed a chair from the dining room around her.

She was teaching.

She was teaching an entire class of werewolves right in front of her, and she was doing it with ease and enthusiasm on her face.

I couldn't take my eyes off her, her gentle and encouraging smile as she asked a kid a question and the way she praised him when he got it right.

I sensed Beta Jace and Alpha Ray next to me but didn't move my eyes, "I told you it was worth seeing Alpha." Jace spoke up.
