The Black Wolf [ON HOLD]

Chapter 6

Xavier POV

I can't help but to look at how my mate stuffs the cheeseburger in her mouth and eat the majority of her french fries. She takes a few sips of the drink and pats her stomach.

"Are you full?" I ask her.

She nods her head yes and proceeds to look out the window.

"She's full? Xavier, that isn't good." James mindlinks me.

"I know. But, don't worry. As she continues to take the pills and shots, she will definitely be eating more." I tell him.

She then starts to write something on her notepad.

"The girl earlier today said a word that made me feel sad and Starfire didn't like her. Why?"

My eyes get wide as I sit there, lost for words.

"I told you not to fuck her but no, you don't like to listen." King tells me.

"Oh, fuck off!" I retort and push him into the back of my mind.

Should I tell her the truth or lie?

"Tell her the truth, you dumb ass." King retorts and retreats before I could say anything.

"Um, well.." I turn to see her looking at me, expecting an answer as I feel beads of sweat began to form.

"Uh, I'll tell you when we get home, okay? There is nothing to worry about. You don't have to worry about that girl anymore either, okay?" I tell her and she nods her head and looks out the window.

I look back towards the front to see James staring at me through the rear view mirror with an eyebrow raised.

"What?" I question him.

He simply shakes his head and looks back at the road. I look over at her, struggling to stay awake.

I chuckled, saying "Come here."

She slides over and I wrap my arm around her as she leans on me. After awhile, I hear her snoring, softly. A smile spreads across my face as I listen to her snoring. She looks so cute and peaceful.

"What you did was wrong, you know that right?" I look up to see that James is staring at me once more.

"I know. I plan on telling her, honestly." I tell him.

He looks at me and says "Don't mean to seem threatening but you better. She's so innocent and fragile. She needs you just as much as you need her. You better hope someone doesn't tell her about rejection."

I sit there and think, letting his words sink in and know he's right. I sigh and nod my head, telling him that I understand. I'm just hoping that when the time comes, she will be able to forgive me.

"We should be home soon." James pipes up.

"Oh, ok. Thanks for the update." I say and he pays attention to the road once more.

I look down at my sleeping mate and see how beautiful she is. I soon feel my eyes begin to droop and I'm soon asleep, dreaming of my beautiful little mate.

8 Hours later....

"Xavier, wake up. We are almost at the house." I wake up to see Brian.

"James had to take a leak so we pulled over." He informs me.

"Oh, ok." I yawn and realize that I need to use the bathroom as well.

I also realize that someone else is missing: Sapphire.

"Before you freak out, she's right here." He says and moves to the side.

I get up and see her, standing in between some trees and smelling some flowers. She turns around, smiles at me before rushing over to me.

"Hang on, I need to use the bathroom." I say, walking away from the truck but not before seeing her nod her head.

I do my business and come back, seeing James watching her as she pops some bubbles that Brian is blowing. The other guards look on in awe, as their Queen squeals as she pops one.

"She will make a fine Queen." I turn to see Axel, coming my way.

"You know you will be her personal guard right?" I say.

He chuckles and says "Of course. I am the best at what I do."

"In your dreams." We both look to see his twin, Alexis headed our way.

We both smile and I walked over and hugged her.

"I didn't even know you were here. I thought you were at home with the baby." I say.

She laughs and says "I will be soon but that's what I have a mate for and he knows how important this job is to me."

I chuckle and say "I know." And then realize why not have two of the best fighters in my pack (besides my father and myself), protect her?

"You both will be her personal guards. Anywhere she goes, you go. Understand?" I say.

"Yes, Alpha." They say in unison and bow.

They bow once again and say "Luna."

I turned around to see her standing there and she does something that shocks me once more.

She waves at them, only to hide behind me. A smile comes across my face and I bend down to her level, considering the fact that she is so short.

"Hey, these two are gonna be your bodyguards. Is that ok?" She smiles and shakes her head, yes.

But, she then runs back to the car and brings her pen and notepad and writes something down and hands it to me.

What is a bodyguard?

"A bodyguard is someone that protects someone else, in this case you." I tell her.

She then points at the word bodyguard and then points at me.

I chuckle and tell her "Yes, I am your bodyguard as well but they will be around when I can't be. Does that make sense?"

She shakes her head, yes and hugs me, Alexis and Axel and then runs back towards Brian and James to pop more bubbles.

"She's so sweet." Alexis says, excitedly.

"She will make a fine Queen and I am honored to protect her." Axel says.

"Thank you." I say.

"Snap!"

We all whip our heads around as the birds fly from the trees.

"Let's pack up and leave, now. James, get Sapphire in the truck and pull off. Alexis and Axel you are going with him." I command everyone through the mindlink.

"Yes, Alpha." Everyone says in unison as they move to their positions.

We were all moving towards the trucks when wolves come out of nowhere.
