Rhaegar
I was doing my work on my laptop, one hand on my mate's leg. I loved having her around me while I worked. She was a calming pill for me.
" Don't you tire of this show?" I asked, reaching for the remote, but my hand froze when she growled.
" Touch it, and you're dead, Mr," she warned. I raised my hands. I glanced at the TV,
" You into nerdy guys?"
"Definitely," she smirked.
" You must be disappointed then," I said, gesturing to myself.
" I'll take what I was given," she said dismissively, and I feigned offense. She straddled me and cupped my face.
" You're perfect for me, my Love," She said sultryly, making my blood go south down.
I caressed her inner thigh. Goosebumps rose on her skin. I loved how she reacted to me. I left kisses on her neck, and she melted to my advances. Her soft moans drove me crazy, and all I wanted was to bend her over and fuck her brains out, but my phone beeped. It was Nate. They had gone to catch the rogue. Hopefully, it was good news.
" I need to go to the office," I said.
" Now?"
" Yes, babe. I'll be back soon," I kissed her lips and wore my shirt. I looked back at her. She had a pout on her lips, and her eyes were big and glassy. I groaned and went back to her, cupping her face.
" How can I leave when you're looking at me like that?"
She tugged away, " You said you'll spend the day with me today," her sweet voice was angelic and soft. I closed my eyes, resting my head against his as I tried to focus.
" It's a quick meeting. I'll be back in an hour, okay, my darling?" I said, and she smiled at me, nodding. She turned, and without looking back, I left the room. A smile rested on my lips as I went.
I reached the car and laughed, " I'm in love," I breathed loudly, my entire body warmth at the thought of my mate. " I'm fucking in love, and I love it,"
' Also, you're talking to yourself,' My wolf chided,
' You're a madman, human,'
' A madman in love with his mate. How did I live without her?' Nalya was fucking perfect, such a sweet, innocent, and gentle soul. She's a breath of fresh air. My heaven, my heaven on earth.
My phone rang again, and I answered it.
" I'm on my fucking way. I hope there is good news,"
" Hmm," he was doubtful.
" What do you mean, Hmm?" Did they catch the rogue? Is he dead?
" Just come here," he sighed. I drove to my company.
...
I growled and punched the wall. " What do you mean the plan failed!" I screamed. My beta and Gamma moved back.
The plan was flawless. The rogues did their part well.
" Our men were placed in the area, all ready to capture or open fire if need be. He confirmed three times that he would come, but he didn't. Arlon William called and said it would be the last time we tried to fool him. Next time, he's getting the Luna himself," he explained.
" Fuck!"
" We are sorry. Maybe one of the rogues warned him of our plan," Kendrick said. He didn't trust them with this and had made it known.
" Their phone was monitored. We could read the messages and hear the phone calls," Ella answered, frowning as she took off her wig and threw herself on the bed.
" I want him found," I demanded.
The following days were aggravating, and I worked harder to tighten security.
After today's work, I called my mate. She was having time with Nadia today.
" Hi, baby," her beautiful voice answered.
" How are you?"
" I'm great. I'm having such a wonderful time at Nadia's villa. I wish you were here,"
" I'm glad you're having fun. I was checking up on you. Enjoy yourself, and I'll see you on Sunday, okay?"
" Alright. Don't overwork yourself, and try going out with Nate and Kendrick, not with girls," she said.
" I wouldn't even go out with any girl who isn't you," I told her. I could see her smile.
" I love you," she said, and like every time, my heart skipped a beat like a teenager in love for the first time.
" I love you too, baby,"
I ended the call, and I sighed in relief. My mate was like an instant drug. Her smile and laugh were enough to brighten my whole day. I didn't just love her because of the mate bond. I love her for the person she is.
" You seem better," Nate said, entering my office.
" I was talking to Nalya," I said. He sat on the couch and poured himself a glass of whiskey.
" Did you tell her about the rogue?" he asked. I shook my head.
" I don't want her to worry or panic," I sighed.
We finished work, and I went home. I ate with my brother, but he was in deep thought.
" You good?" I asked.
" I found my mate," he said out of the blue. I cleared my throat.
" That's wonderful, who is she?" I asked. I couldn't believe I didn't know about this. However, lately, I've been too busy with work to spend time with him.
Roman told me about his mate with a smile.
" However, she has a boyfriend. Different from me, I'm not her type," he sighed, running a hand through his fingers.
" Some girls don't like bad boys, fuck boys etc," I laughed.
" I'm not that... Not anymore," he wheezed.
" Good then. When your mate shifts, she will naturally and willingly come to you," I told him.
" What should I do for now?"
" Just be her friend," I smiled, and he nodded. We continued to eat silently when his eyes found my lock screen picture on my phone. It was of Nalya smiling and holding a sonogram of our unborn child.
" How do you feel about being a dad?" he asked.
" It's good. It brings me comfort, something to look forward to," I smiled, thinking about my unborn son.
" Ready to go?!" Kendrick asked. I grabbed my wallet and nodded.
Recently, we've been working too hard so we are going to a bar for drinks.
I was about to get into the car when Juliana called my name. I groaned and turned to her.
" What?"
I was still angry at her for what she said to Nalya. She did send an email of apology, but I ignored it.
" Prince Rhegar, can we talk for a moment?" she asked. I nodded, and the guys entered the car and waited there.
" I'm sorry once again for my behavior towards your mate. I thought I was okay with you moving on, but when I saw her by your side, smiling because you were making her happy, I got angry and jealous," she explained. " It will never happen again, and I intend to ask for forgiveness from her too," Juliana seemed sincere.
" You should leave for your grandfather's pack soon, Juliana," I said seriously.
" Please, alpha, allow me to stay for a while. I won't cause any trouble for you or Nalya," Juliana and I have been friends for a long time, and I don't want to cut her off just like that, but my mate should come first.
" Things didn't work out as we planned," I said. She smiled sadly but nodded.
" It's not your fault,"
" I insist you leave. You can visit in a few years, but after you clear your mind,"
" I will," she looked over my shoulder to the car and asked, "Where to?"
" Bar. We are having a few drinks," I answered.
" I'll join. One last drink," Juliana smiled, and I nodded.
