Mae pov
Lord Elliot withdrew his gaze and step back.
"I need a favor from you". he finally said.
"Anything my lord."
I really need to figure myself out how can I have this burning desire for lord Elliot and still be in love with Eric.
"I need you to stop seeing Eric"
Okay now he definitely was jealous of Eric, does he really think I and Eric were a thing.
"I don't quite understand....." he turned around and cut me off
"I want you to stop seeing Eric or else there would be blood."
He spoke with certainty and like I was just poured a bucket of ice water I couldn't reply.
He turned to leave and I stared at his back still fidgeting from what he said. then he stopped without turning back and said, "you are mine, Mae so better do as I say."
Even though it was a whisper he knew I heard him .
taking long strides he was finally out of my sight.
Why do all this feel like I am stuck in the middle .like a triangle relationship?
I don't even know what lord Elliot wants with me first he says I shouldn't be with Eric than that I'm his
For all I know I am an independent woman I belong to no one if the Vladimir brothers will give me a headache I'm leaving immediately.

Elliot pov
Today is Sunday so like all Sundays I went for a run my afternoon was for running in my wolf form while the evening was for hunting I don't eat at home because Rex loves raw meat so if Rex is filled then I am also filled.
This has been something I do to get rid of the stress that comes with the hectic week and the role of a supreme Alpha.
While running in the forest Rex suddenly stopped he was filling uncomfortable and that has never happened to Rex
"What's wrong why did you stop" I mind-linked him
"I want to go back home..."
He didn't need to speak further I even wanted to see Mae again though I saw her this morning I already miss her.
I switched to my human form, entered my car and sped off,
Ever since that morning, I noticed she's been avoiding me but while serving dishes Eric is. Always flirting with her. Lizzy had scolded Eric but he wouldn't listen
Each time I see her with Eric I begin to boil I expected she would at least show signs of interest after our brief after-breakfast encounter but she still acted like I didn't exist
I was seriously trying my best not to kill Eric, I mean he is still my brother, and killing him because of a woman was just not my style I could have killed for Zarah but look how she betrayed me.
"I want you to f**king claim her to night " Rex said in my head our wolf side was always sexually aroused by anything our mate do that's why it's been so hard seeing how Eric flirts with my mate.
I can't just do that Rex I said to him he should understand she needs to also want me but ReX was not having any of it
"I have waited for Four hundred years Elliot I deserve to know what my mate tastes like."
As I drove Rex kept pressuring me he was right we both had given up I mean why did it take so long for us to find our mate.
Immediately I arrived at the mansion I followed her scent and I found her in the garden she was playing a game with her coworkers and for about thirty minutes I just stood watching her play having so much fun and laughing like she's got nothing to worry about.
Her smile was mesmerizing and her laughter was music to my ear at this point I knew one hundred percent I was in love like I've never been before
I finally stepped out of my hiding when I saw her running my way but she like always wasn't looking and bumped into me
Shock was written allover her face and immediately replaced with fear.
I brushed my palm on her exposed arm and we both felt the spark she withdrew her arm and as I ask why she's been avoiding me she trembled with fear before answering.
As we spoke she relaxed a little and even dared to look me in the eye after which she started fidgeting agin.
When I said If she didn't stop seeing Eric there would be blood I was very serious if Eric want to fight for my mate then I wouldn't only show him hell I would bring it to him.
