"This wasn't what your body said during the ride. I might not have read your mind, but I'm aware of the fact you enjoyed the ride more than you're letting on.
Your body said it all." He said in a smug tone, "I can tell you enjoyed the ride as much as I enjoyed carrying you."
"I felt no excitement."
Far be it that I'll admit to the fact that I not only enjoyed the ride, but I'm hoping to get more from him in the future.
I never knew having a ride on someone's back can be that thrilling and exciting. Had I known of this, I would have Asked Teny to carry me during our numerous racing times.
In the back of my mind, I decided to ask Teny to carry me on a run when I have the opportunity.
" Says the same male who had his hand out as I ran through the forest."
" Nah," I tsk. " Don't humour yourself by thinking the ride was memorable for me. It's far from that."
" Does that mean you will return in your wolf form?"
And risk showing you my pathetic Wolf?
Nah, I think I'll pass.
Having a ride with him is far more endurable than changing into my Wolf only to have him taunt me for all eternity.
" I'm going back the way I came. I might not have enjoyed the ride with you, but I'm willing to endure the trip back. At least it's a one-time thing."
Before I met the rogue, I'm always eager to change into my wolf. Eager to show others who the Alpha is.
But right now, I don't feel that pride, not when the male I'm competing with is twice my size, and far stronger than I am.
"You are willing to endure another ride back to the back despite your words of earlier? Why endure a ride back when the one you had wasn't enjoyable?"
" It's none of your concern."
Having decided I'm through with this conversation, I started walking towards my pack house.
I took a path I'm much more conversant with and hurried towards my pack.
I might not have been willing to follow him when he asked me for this, but right now, there is this eagerness I feel.
It's as if something is pulling me towards my pack. I felt like how a magnet feels toward a magnetic field.
I hurried my steps as I tried to cover up more ground.
Had it not been for the Male behind me, I would have long turned into my wolf. At least I'll arrive there faster in my wolf form than I'll do in my human form.
But I have to endure all this.
I have to make sure I never change into my wolf form in the presence of the rogue, who's constantly investigating how to shame me.
I won't give him that satisfaction of knowing my wolf is twice his size.
I turned when the silence between us became deafening. I had to check if he was still with me, or by some stroke of miracle, the goddess decided to deal with him for my sake.
"Afraid I wasn't following you?" He asked in a smug tone.
"Nah. I thought you'd run back home for fear of being defeated by my pack." I said smugly, a pronounced smirk on my face.
" As if you can defeat me." He scoffed," sorry to burst your bubbles, love. There is no way I can be defeated by your pack. They don't have what it takes to defeat me."
" Egotistical much?" I roll my eyes at him.
Wait until I get him alone in our hall, and ask my pack of defenders to deal with him.
Currently, he might act smug and mighty based on the fact I'm the only one with him now.
Wait until I set him up.
"I'm not trying to be egotistical. I'm telling you the fact, Mek. No one can be able to defeat me, not even your pack joined. "
"And you want me to believe that?"
"If you know how many wolves I defeated before I got the title, you'll know what to believe, and what not to believe."
"Pray tell, how many have you killed?" I raised a questioning brow at him.
"More Alphas to gain me the title of supreme Alpha of rogues. " He answered without actually answering the question I asked.
" I can see that." Giving him a look to tell him exactly what I think of what he said, I continue with my earlier mission, and that's to get to my pack.
It seems like the nearer I get to the pack house, the more pronounced the pull becomes. Currently, not only I'm I able to feel the pull towards my pack, but I can feel their emotions through the bond I share with them.
*
Almost to my pack house, I hasten my footsteps as my eagerness became more pronounced.
"Had I known bringing you here will show me an entirely new side of you, I would have done this a long time ago."
" Don't think you can bring me here whenever you feel like it. " I snap at him, but didn't stop my earlier Mission, and that's to get to the pack house as fast as I can.
"I'm not thinking of doing that. I've already planned to do that. There's a huge difference between thinking of doing something, and doing it."
He smirked in such a way, that it made me itch to let my wolf out, and challenge him to a duel.
But I know this won't be productive at all.
Should I change to my wolf, and attack him, there's no telling what might become of my wolf?
"Suit yourself!" I frown at him.
"I've always done things that suit me. You don't have to tell me that. I'm already aware of the role I play."
" You're an insufferable male." I resist the urge to tug my hair in frustration.
