I'm His Mate /✔ /

Chapter 26: Intruders!

"Will you accept me, my Mate?" he said. I chuckled. What is this man talking about? If I really despise him I should have told him not to bother me anymore. I'm always good at pushing people. It just happens that his feelings for me are immovable.

"You already announced it to your pack.", I said. Not just to his pack, but actually to everyone. But I don't see any problem with it. I might be shy and embarrassed at first because all of this is new to me but I will not deny the fact that I am enjoying what I have right now. Troy makes me feel like I'm alive.

"Will you oppose it?" he questioned.

"No.", I said as I rested my head on his shoulder. "Never", I added. I can feel the smile slowly forming in his face.

"I'll take that as a yes then.", he said and I nodded. I looked up at the sky and glanced at the moon. This place is so peaceful and quiet. Troy faced me and stared at me.

"Err... need something?", I asked. Is there dirt in my face?. He leaned closer and placed a kiss on my neck.

"Troy."

"Hmm?..."

"What if I'm not ready? What if I want to do more things? You see I still have things that I want to do. what if-" Before I could even finish my sentence, Troy pulled me to his warm and comforting arms.

"I can wait.", he said. I hugged him back. "I have waited for you for many years. I will alway wait for you." he said and his words put me at ease. "You don't have to push yourself to be with me. Just let me love you the way only I can do. I will do everything for you."

"Thank you. I will trust your words.", I said. Then he let go. A cold breeze brushed my skin, colder than before. Troy snapped his head up and smelt the air. He explored his eyes around that are now in a color of bloody red. It glows. A howled broke the silence. It came from the deep forest. Troy grinded his teeth and clenched his jaw. What's happening?! He stood up and glanced at me. He held my hands and helped me to stand up. I felt the tension in the air as I stood up. Troy lifted me up in a bridal style.

"Wha-"

"Shh.. intruders.", he whispered. Intruders? Does it mean wolf on wild! Trespassers? I yanked at every step Troy made. Sharp and quiet, but I can feel his anger. He then ran so fast and one second we're in the car already. He dropped me down and opened the passenger seat. He lifted the seat in the middle. I saw a gun and a dagger.

"What is that for?", I asked.

"Just in case.", he said and carried me again.

"Will you just-"

"Quiet, Audrey. We're going to the pack house to stay." he said I remained quiet as he ran so fast. Now I understand. The reason why he runs kilometers and feels like a no big thing. Of course he can, he's a wolf. I wrapped my hands around his neck tight. Every time the wind blows on his handsome face and his hair sway, the more my heart beat doubles. I closed my eyes. Minutes later he stopped. We're at the pack house, two unfamiliar men stood there in silence. One with blue eyes, black hair and a masculine body, Aged like forty. The other one is quite handsome, but not like Troy. He has a black eyes, brown hair and has a quite good structure too, I think he's age is similar to Troy.

He put me down and the two men walked towards us. "Alpha, the enemy is approaching." the stranger in the age of forty said.

"I heard them near the southern border. I went back here to secure the safety of my Mate.", he said. The brown haired guy leaned closer and sniffed.

"Hmm... Is that her?" he said and grinned. What's wrong with this guy?

"Yes, and Gabriel she's Aubrey. Aubrey, he's my second beta, Gabriel. Dolan she's Aubrey, Aubrey, he's one of my hunters. Both of you, she's my Mate, Aubrey." he said quickly.

"Nice to meet you both." I said and greeted them and they bowed their heads.

"The pleasure is mine Lady Aubrey", Dolan said and bowed his head.

"Good taste, Alpha.", Gabriel said and grinned.

"I know." he said and they smirked at each other. Men are so weird.

"Shall we get inside? because It's really getting cold here.", I said and their eye contact broke and met mine.

"This way,Lady." Dolan said and he gestured to the door. We went inside. The pack is now staring at me, all of them. I held Troy's hand and calmed myself. I shall never show them my weakness or they will use it against me, That's what my Grandma used to tell me when I was a kid. I remained silent until Troy started to walk and sat at the couch. He pulled me, making me fall to his lap. He wrapped his hands around my waist. All of them kept glaring at me. I remained emotionless and silent then Troy spoke.

"Everyone! The enemy is itching for a fight. The Wolf Fang, the pack which is located in the South, starts raiding our lands. We will never allow that to happen. We will attack them and show them what they are looking for. We will show them no mercy. Prove them what we've got." he stated and the whole pack starts howling. The pack house is huge enough to hold meetings like this and gatherings like this really requires a lot of space.

"Everyone get ready." he said and the wolves equipped their weapons.

"Please come back safe, Troy." I said and hugged him.

"I promise."

Troy told Gabriel to show me the room I will be staying. Troy kissed me on my forehead and bid goodbye.

"Never leave the room, Lady. Wait for us to go back. Trust no one." he said and closed the door. I sighed. I'm alone. I stroll the surrounding with my two blessed eyes. There's a 62' inches flat screen television with two pairs of sofas, a large bathroom, and a king size bedroom. And a kitchen. This room is huge! I can't help thinking that I'm alone in a very large room. I grabbed a bottle of water at the fridge, I'm so exhausted.

I hope everything is okay. I'm not surprised that Troy will be called out for emergencies like this. I know he's used to this kind of stuff. His pack is huge and strong, everything is under control. I just need to calm down and wait for him to come back.

I drank until the last drop of water landed on my throat. I felt the cold breeze enter the room. The wind started to lash at my neck. It wasn't unfamiliar for me to get cold drafts in the room. The weather is a bit cloudy. I didn't pay any attention to it. I grabbed some chocolates and chips before closing the fridge and I realized I was petrified to no end. Only one single thought ran through my mind as the wind kept thrashing around my bare skin. I had never opened the window. I entered the room where the windows are closed. I felt numbness around my body as strong hands grabbed me and placed a handkerchief on my nose. I struggled back, I kicked and punched the stranger beside me but I'm so weak and tired. Everything turned black and I dropped.

What is happening?
