Chapter 46: Chapter 46

Damien's POV

"I heard that Chase is in the human world" I stared at Dylan, I was seated in his office, trying to make some arrangements of the facilities I'll use why I am here, taking medicines from my house to here is a sure indication that I am treating a werewolf in the human world, I don't want to take such risk, I frowned, damn, Chase is here already? "He doesn't waste time huh!"

"So, tell me, how's your patient?" I shook my head at Dylan's question, "to be candid, he's not doing good, he's not responding to any of my treatment, I'll have to try something new and for that, I'll need to be here for the time being"

"You're welcome to stay at my house, Chase wouldn't dare lift a finger against you there"

"I know, but I don't want to start a fight between the both of you" Dylan raised his brow at my words and stared at me until I raised my hand in surrender, "alright, I know he's no match for you when it comes to fighting, still, Chase is a brute and can stoop to any level, he might just hurt those close to you to get to you"

"An Alpha is supposed to be a safe harbor for the ones he's leading, not the one that frightens"

"Yea, that's why I always wished you come and take your place, your parents were the leader of our pack, there were Alphas and you were supposed to take over after their demise, leaving the pack in the hands of a ruthless leader"

"You know my reasons" I shook my head, yeah, I know his reasons and kind of understand it but I still sincerely wished he was our Alpha instead, I shook my head, Dylan placed his hand on my shoulder, "don't think about it, I am fine and you people will be fine" I sighed, right, now, I need to divert Chase poking nose, I need to make him believe that I am only here to see my girlfriend, Samantha, I shuddered at the thought of seeing her again, how she makes my blood boil, "can you help me out" I suddenly asked and Dylan simply raised a brow, "I need to go out on a date with Samantha tonight, asking her directly is like putting my neck on the noose.

"Done" I stared at him, why was I surprised about his few choices of words, no explanation of how he will do it, I have known him since childhood and he had always been a man of few words, growing up hasn't changed that, apart from being a man of few words, he's a man of his words and so, I believe him when he said "done" I don't care how he's gonna do it, so far it is done.

*******************************************

"What. The. Hell. Are you doing here" Samantha gritted the moment I slide into the chair in front of her, she made sure each word was distinct and clear, her eyes blazed fury and I bit the side of my cheeks, it was just as I expected, "I'm here for our date" I replied casually, signaling a waiter to come, "what? Dylan was supposed to be here and not you"

"Dylan huh" I replied, pointing out her use of just his first name, she averted her gaze but said nothing, "look, he couldn't make it okay..."

"And you thought of filling on for him"

"Exactly" she shook her head, "I'm done" with that she stood up but before she could leave, I grabbed her hand and she fell right into my lap, "what are you doing? Let me go" she bit out and I carefully raised my hands, gosh! She was such a pain in the ass but I kept that certain thought to myself as I wouldn't like to infuriate her further, I stared deep into her eyes as she was still seated on my lap, trying my possible best to sound convincing, "since Dylan couldn't show up and I'm here, why don't we just have the date" no sooner have I said the words when I perceived the scent of a wolf, oh! So, Chase and his men have gotten here already, "no!" She bit out, trying to get up from my lap, oh! Damn, I have to do something about this wild one here, I drew my face closer to her, "w...w...what" she stuttered, her blue eyes gazing at me, her eyes are pretty, I thought offhandedly, deep blue, as deep as the Ocean, I wished I could reach their hidden debt, "I swallowed past the lump that has suddenly clogged my throat, "please "

She looked like she wanted to reject my plea, I quickly grasped her hands, "please" I repeated hopefully, "alright then, just go of me" she quickly withdrew her hands from his, "let's make it snappy, I smiled as I let her go to seat in her side of the table.

Samantha's POV

I peeped at my date through the menu and would have kicked myself when he stared at me and caught my gaze while I was peeping, I saw him bit the corner of his cheeks as if trying to hide a smile, and I felt my face grew hot, gosh, why does he have to come here, he has a way of disorienting me, "like anything?" His deep voice resounded in my ears and I gulped, feeling fluttered by his presence, I nodded and settled for a light meal, I couldn't resist the temptation of ordering for chocolate that was on the menu, his face twisted in a smile, "chocolate?" I rolled my eyes defensively, "yeah, I love chocolate, do you have a problem with that?"

He chuckled, "not at all, please enjoy"

He must be thinking a grown woman will go out on a date and start ordering for chocolate, well I couldn't resist it, I have always loved chocolate and dad has always bought it for me when I was little but everything changed, when Ariana committed that atrocious act, I quickly shook away the memories and thought of her. I glanced at the man in front of me, he was gazing over my shoulders so seriously, his eyes were narrowed into slits, and a crease formed on his forehead, his gaze was so dangerously fierce and I wondered what he was gazing at so intensely, I made to turn my head so that I could see what he was looking but his voice stopped me, "do not turn around" I quickly grew steal, why was he exhibiting such dark aura around him today, I suddenly realized that I do not know him at all, a chill went down my spine, "I..is... something wrong?" I managed to stammer out

"Let's get out of here" he stood up and grabbed my arms, what exactly is wrong with this guy? First of all, he insisted that we have a date and now, he's dragging me out like I was some stray he had just found, outside, I wrenched my arms away from his grasp, "what's your problem? Why are you suddenly acting up?"

"Let's just go away from here" was all he said and tried to get hold of my arms once more but I resisted strongly, pointing my fingers at him, I was beyond angry, "look Mr, do not order me around, you're not my..." I gasped as he grabbed me and I fell against him, I was going to say he wasn't my boyfriend but he crushed his lips against mine, trapping my words in my mouth.

Author's POV

Chase stood in the shadows and observed the two for a moment, he scoffed when he saw both of them kissing, "so this was the reason he had left his pack to the human world, what a fool" he had thought that Damien was up to something and had kept a close eye on him but it looks like his thoughts were wrong, he shook his head as he walked away but he couldn't shake off the feeling that he was missing something important, he'll still have to keep am eye on him, he's the Alpha of the red moon pack and he will not tolerate insorbordination to him, everyone answers to him and more so, he won't take the chance of someone going against him, he was particularly wary of Damien because he was Dylan's friend, he would have to make those two stop seeing each other, what if they conspire against him, "well, it wasn't Dylan that had kept him here this time, but a woman, I think I'll have to get to know her" he muttered as he quietly walked away.
