Chereads / His Dangerous MATE / Chapter 9 - Chapter eight

Chapter 9 - Chapter eight

Theo moves his finger twice before he lets out a low grunt. Staying in one position for a long time has its peck. He tries to turn to the other side of the bed he laid on when he suddenly sits up.

He was awake' he noted happily. He moved his body and commented mentally since he felt no pain.

He looks around and notes that he was still in his Beta room, but he doesn't see him or Sebastian.

He reached over to his arm to analyze it and noted that he barely felt the pain. The scar was barely visible, He had healed completely.

He heard whispers coming from the door, he couldn't recognize the voices so he got up, pulled the blanket to the side, and advanced towards the doorway.

He jerks the unlocked door open, startling the gossipers. It was Gael and Sebastian.

Theo squinted his eyes at them as if he would be able to detect what they were hiding by doing so.

"You're awake," Gael notes with a smile but it wasn't genuine

"Was I not supposed to?"Theo a slew confused as he stared from Gael to Sebastian.

'Why do they look flushed… '

"I'll call for the maid to bring your food Immediately, "Gael mutters and attempt to walk off

"No need, I tend to hunt. It'll help me regain the strength and stamina I have lost faster. What's with the both of you?" Theo questioned before making his way past them. And knowing better, they followed him.

"You're the one who just woke up from your dying state, don't you think we should be the one asking you that question," Sebastian scoffed

"I still haven't gotten an answer,"

Theo stated grimily, before opening the door to his office.

His office was just like every other out there, except for the insane art scribbles on the wall. Papers and flies were neatly placed on the cabinets and on his desk, but most papers were rough sketches that were neatly pasted on the wall.

Theo moves over to his Arm chair and took a seat

"We have something important to discuss," theo disclose

"Before you say anything about it… You've got to listen to me, first fella."Gael rushed his words making Theo's brows crease as he frowns.

"I don't want it to seem like I'm rejecting you, I'm not but- but you're not just my type" Gael announced

"I don't have a type" Sebastian started

He had already started making a plane from one of Theo's papers. "But I can't picture you and I- naked."

Theo's frown depeans as his brows creased further, he was confused. Before he could say something Gael had started talking again, cutting him short.

"I mean… You've always like girls right, and I know you want kids so this shouldn't be hard,"

"Hold on a second," Theo suddenly spoke. At first, he was enjoying the talk but it was starting to irk him.

"Yes your Grace," Gael responded dramatically

"What gave you that impression I like guys… Not just any…. You both?"

Sebastian and Gael shared a bemused expression. Before Sebastian decided to speak up

"Well, last week you- you called us to mate Triggering our wolves,"

Theo lets out a shocked expression

"Last, WEEK?"

"And you called us Mate too, don't forget that part" Sebastian added

Theo moves away from his chair and rushes to grab Gael's phone. He checked the current date and then realized what they had said was true.

"Woah," he mutters "I've been out for one week?"

"You seem to be forgetting the important thing…"Sebastian tries again

"It feels like yesterday," Theo responded cutting Sebastian short. Sebastian in turn mutters an 'okay' already accepting that he wasn't going to talk about it.

"That doesn't matter now, but you need to eat-" Gael started to say, he wasn't pleased too that Theo was ignoring what they had said. He triggered their wolf and if he doesn't talk about it now, their wolves would start to succumb to him, but not their humane side.

"I'll do that later, now right now we have something important to talk about, that needs to be addressed and shared with the rest of the clan."

Sebastian and Gael suddenly looked serious, as they listened with rampant attention.

"There is something I've been investigating on my own for the past week after one of us was killed. After Gael noted the wounds on them were weapons only to be possessed by an exorcist, I went over hoping I could negotiate a deal."

"You did what?!" Sebastian and Gael asked in unison clearly not pleased he had put his life on jeproady.

"I did get to the priest, but I wasn't able to speak to any. Not after what I saw." Theo mutters, sounding ominous. Gael and Sebastian waited patiently for him to speak further

"Sixteen of them laid lifeless, badly bitten and flesh tore. Something only a wide beast could do,"

"Only a wolf could do." Sebastian finished Theo's words. "We better summon everyone and bring whoever did that out to be punished."

"That was the same thing I had thought, it's the werewolf's first rule. Don't feed to kill. So who could have done that knowing what awaits their fate? After what happened last night…,"

"Last week" Gael corrected

"After what happened last week with one of our brothers, I was determined to get to the route of the issue."

"Did you get to it?" Sebastian asked anxiously

"More like almost buried inside a casket, but I realized something. There is something out there mimicking us."

Gael and Sebastian looked at him weirdly giving him the 'what?' expression

"Something is killing them, and they think it is us because it growls just the way we do, "Theo explained

"Maybe another pack or a rogue?"Gael suggested he had taken a seat on the sofa.

"What do you mean mimic?"Sebastian raised a question

"They growl, grunt… Huff, but they don't communicate."

Theo disclosed. A thick silence followed right after, everyone was trying to process what this could mean. The silence was cut short when a cup fell to the ground.

Theo gets up from his chair and advanced to where the fall had happened, he bends to pick it up.

"Daniel is not going to be pleased when he realizes the precious mug he gave to you had been shattered into pieces." Gael laughs

He stops abruptly as if suddenly remembering something. All of them had that knowing look on their face.

"Fuck Daniel is in danger!" Gael counters and they all made their way out of the office at immeasurable speed.
