My Not So Perfect Mate (boyxboy)

Chapter 23

Was this disgust that was framing his face at the moment? Was he repulsed by the fact that I was his mate? Was he experiencing the same confused erratic emotions that were wrecking my body? If you can't already tell, my mind was running a mile a minute.

Sam has always been a private person, I have never seen him with anyone romantically though right now I was thankful for that since my wolf was ready to pounce on anyone who even dared to look at our mate romantically or otherwise. I had no idea that my wolf was so crazy possessive.

But Sam not being in a relationship with anyone also makes it impossible for me to know his sexual preference. Was he too fighting the duel inner battle of having a male wolf as his mate and that male wolf being me, his eternal rival?

I have never even heard about him dating anyone and to be honest, I have never cared about it much up until now, when against all odds, he has turned out to be my mate.

" Yes, sure, just give me a minute", he said and then got up from the couch and I realised how attuned my body was to his already as I could feel the shivers raking his body even though they were not at all prominent to the naked eye.

He seems to be sick if the shivers are anything to go by. This was weird as wolves rarely got sick but thankfully even if they do they recover quite quickly.

" Need to take care of mate", my wolf grunted.

" Sam is a big boy, he can surely and effectively take care of himself", I said just for the sake of it as I was pretty sure I was not going anywhere and will be staying by Sam's side until he is feeling better. Fuck this wolf nature and shit.

" No, we need to take care of mate", my wolf growled, very riled up even at the thought of leaving his mate alone while they were feeling anything other than perfectly healthy.

" Okay, okay", I sighed giving up on the faux battle already.

Before my wolf could say anything further, my attention was once again taken by Sam who had started taking off his jacket which made absolutely no sense given the fact that he was cold and shivering. He now had the jacket in his hand offering it to Danny.

" Thank you for lending your jacket to me Danny. You can take it back now. It was a real lifesaver when I like a fool had packed all of mine in my suitcase. Thanks!", Sam said with a smile directed towards Danny, the great human messiah. It was a sweet smile, making Sam's face light up and his eyes soften.

I want him to smile at me, at something I did or said, not at fucking Danny. I was his mate, not him.

" Well, that explains the nasty stench our mate was covered in. It belonged to this stupid wolf who dared to touch our mate.", my wolf spoke, wasn't he all active and talkative once again, after all these months of radio silence. He had just left me lonely for all this time and now he is bouncing off the roof having found his mate. This was unfair.

" You are a jerk", I directed the thought towards my wolf and since he is a part of me and privy to all my thoughts, he was very much aware of what I was talking about. He whimpered and hid his head with his paws, at least he was remorseful for what he had done.

" Not a big deal, Sammy. You go and have a good rest, see you at dinner", said Danny, moving to pat Sam's shoulder but Sam flinched back which shamefully made me cheer up a bit.

" Sorry Danny, it just hurts, a lot, my body is really sore. See you at dinner. And sorry guys for being the party pooper but I just need to crash and sleep this bug or whatever off. See you all later", he said and then his eyes zeroed on Phillips and they nodded at each other, probably talking through their mind link. They must have really missed each other, after all, they liked to call themselves soulmates and are always stuck to each other like glue.
