Chapter 15 - Nearly caught

So I do not like hazel nuts because it makes my eyes reddish. And I think potatoes are best eaten with tenderised meat. You see it's my dream to become a chef and I am in my first year of culinary school. Everyone says...

I half listen to my date as she drones on and on about different foods and topics I couldn't care less about. I have been on dates back to back in the past two weeks and none of them is her. I rub face in tiredness.

That's enough for now, I do not need to know how you pair spaghetti with beans. My voice must have come out more snappish than I intended, because I see her eyes moisten. Great, now I have another weepy one on my hand. Way to tired and exhausted to be anything but civil. I dismiss her.

You may go now, tell the Matron to move my date for this evening till tomorrow morning.

I do not stare after her as I hear him.

We did that last night remember we were almost caught. And if we were that would have been extremely embarassing. I can picture how the news will spread. Alpha Kincaid caught sniffing around the girls domitory at night.

Imagine how awkward it was this morning when the Matron came to report the perverted wolf who sneaks into the girls dorm at night. And having to assure her that I will look into the matter and make sure the culprit is caught.

Arghhhhh, I clear the table to the floor. Being unable to touch or recognise my mate even when she is right under my nose is more nerve wracking than battling a group of rogues. I am wound tight as a spring, My wolf too. And to make things worse, I get a whiff of that delicious smell telling me my mate is near every now and then, disappearing as quickly as it comes. I am damn near half mad with wanting her.

If we let them know. These two things will happen, 1. As Alpha I am meant to be strongest, signs of weakness are not well taken with our kind. 2. Letting the contestants know she is their midst will put her in danger as these she wolves I see are very brutal and they will eliminate who they perceive as a threat, the moment they get a chance. So, we have to be CAREFUL!!

𝐹𝐼𝑁𝐸!

FINE!!

I hate arguing with my wolf but sometimes I need to put him in his place else, he will run over my life.

I am right there with you, no denial. No pretense.

I catch a whiff of that delicious smell again. And my eyes flash golden as I get an immediate body reaction. I almost shift but I calm myself as I follow the smell. It lingers longer than usual. Β 

Let me out. This could be our chance.

Before I can give in to his request, the smell is gone again.

I almost howl in sadness and frustration but I hold it in with discipline. I wouldn't want to have all my elite here in a matter of seconds poised for battle.

Alpha Kincaid, I turn around to see a curly haired girl talking to me. Β 

What? I snarl. I already told the last one of you who was here to tell your matron that I won't be going on anymore dates for the day.

I know that.

Then what are you doing here!

I see something flash in her eyes and she straightens her spine.

I am the last contestant to go on a date with you. That numbering Β is already unfortunate and pushing it till tomorrow morning will be detrimental for my chances as a contestant.

And why should I care about that?

You should care as it is your duty, you invited me here and it is your responsibility to ensure that if I lose in the contest for your hand it won't be of your own fault.

I do a double take on her and cock my eyebrow. A female with a spine, interesting.

Don't you feel intimidated by me at all?

Should I?

Hmmm

You will do no such thing.

Assuming a calm and stoic demeanor. One that has been with me all my days as an Alpha.

Why exactly must you have your date today?

To go on our date with you, we competed for numbers and Matron said the person with the last number will be the first to start the next game. One might think that is a good thing but when she explained the game to us. Everyone did their best to get the best numbers. Unfortunately my best wasn't enough.

I look forward to see this game tomorrow already.

I am glad our scrambling over you, excites you.

A smile takes up the side of my lips before I can tamp it down. I have spent only a few minutes in her company and it is very much refreshing. Taking my time to look at her and see her. She is quite beautiful and with an attitude to match it. Warm brown eyes set in a golden caramel skin with short curly hair. She must be from the Northbridge pack, they are the only pack in this country who have members with such colouring.

A descent of the great Shar himself. Your ancestor must be proud.

She quickly looks at the floor before she looks at me. Maybe.

Why maybe?

She opens her mouth to speak but shakes it again.

I pull up from the wall I was resting on. You wanted a date, you got one. But it won't be in there, let's go for a run.

A run! a small shriek makes me turn back to her.

Yes a run.. My smile freezes as I weigh her expression, she looks panicked and scared.

What is the matter?

On a second thought, I can wait for tomorrow, we do not need to do this tonight. I will just head back to my house after all it's barely evening. She says this as she backs away.

Stop

She doesn't, instead she promptly turns around and quickens her pace.

Did she just disobey me? That rarely ever happens.

I am in front of her in an instant. Releasing a large amount of my aura.

I said stop.

She does.

See, Let's just pretend I never asked you to go on a date with me tonight. Then she tries to bypass me.

What! That's not possible.

I hold her by the hand. You.. You.. You are the Alpha's meal.

She slowly nods and before I can think about it, I have her over my shoulders and I speeding to the woods.
