Chapter 169 - Forgot About Me

"Hmm, have you attended their marking ceremony? I think my brother forgot to invite me. Or is it because of the mother?" 

The marking ceremony was as pious to them as a marriage ceremony for humans. Though mostly wolves mark their mate intimately while having sex. Since it comes from the heart, the desire to mark the one that was made for you.

There were times that even females have marked the males before they could do so as wolves are too possessive for their mates. and here he was! only he knew how he was struggling to keep his wolf at bay every time he see Hazel.

The marking of Luna is done in the presence of everyone so that she could gain the respect of everyone and can show her authority to them.

But he was sure that Hazel did not have any mark on her neck. She could not even hear the common announcements that had been sent through mind link.

How could his perfect brother make such a mistake! He should have known that no one would take her as their luna if she would not have a mate bond!

"Alpha will not do that in the absence of his mother. I think he is waiting for us to leave for Alienore before doing so. 

Luna has some past grudges here which she wanted to resolve before leaving for forever!

But that did not mean that she should not be treated as LUNA!" she pressed at the last words reminding the man once again that they should behave nicely with their Luna and not flirt with her!

"I will convey your message to mother if you are in so much hurry!" replied Alex with a shrug of his shoulders but it was enough for the girl to flinch!

"I mean.."

"You should remember that  I will not harm them. They are my family! And i am here only for their good! This is the last time i am reminding you that. If you asked the same question one more time, i will not be this calm!" his eyes glowed menacingly as the words left her mouth.

"Yes! Yes, beta! I didn't mean it that way!" She did not want to die in the feud of the family. She was better where she could stay far away from all these matters.

"Since that is the case, I have a task for you! I want you to keep an eye on them and report to me if there is anything strange about them!" the girl frowned but when his confused eyes met with his killing intent, she nodded her head hurriedly.

"Yes, beta! I will take care of that!" Once he received the reply he was waiting for, he did not stay there for long. 

Checking a few more details he left and changed into a beast as he ran towards the open roads.

Ranold was sleeping freely on the table in the shop when he heard the sound of the door.

He did not find it necessary to open his eyes as he knew only two men visit here and the elder one would not come without reason.

"What is it Alex! Since that day you have been trespassing my shop every now and then!"  there was a hint of annoyance in his voice that Alex ignored.

"Are you sure that hazel is the mate of brother?" Ranold's eyes snapped open as he heard the question and his eyes were so wide that Alex did not need the answer anymore.

"How would I know? What does it have to do with me? Have you not heard that your brother had married her and now they were living together!" ranold scowled but Alex did not pay any heed to it.

"Hmmm, then why is brother not taking uber to the pack! Or is he afraid that others would not accept her, especially mother?" ranold took a breath or relief when he heard Alex.

So he was only worried about that!

"How did I know! I can only say if that is the reason then Richard should work to make her strong! Though she was not a were, she had great capabilities!" there was a hint of joy in his voice that did not go unnoticed by the man whose eyes were twinkling.

"What kind of capabilities, ranold. Do not tell me that she is a fae like you!?" he shook his head with laughter when he saw that Ranold was still not laughing. His face was too serious for his liking that made him confused.

If he did not know that fae can not enter in the human part without being part of the pack, he would have thought that hazel was a fae. But he had smelled her, there was no smell of supernatural beings in her.

Even if he would have missed it, there was no way that his brother would miss it too!

"Tsk! You are no fun to be with! I would have taken hazel to the pack if she would have been my mate. Brother is not treating her fairly.

And if he would not return soon, she would be doubtful and send someone to give her a report about him.

You know how controlling she is!" he shook his head and sat on the chair he was lazing on just a while ago and the man took a deep breath.

"You know it has nothing to do with me. Then why are you coming here and telling me all this? If you have any doubt go to your brother and talk to him! It is not like I have stopped him or something! Just go!" ranold tried to push away the oversized dog that was leaning on the chair as if it was his home and his seat.

"Hmm, I am not here for that. I need your help.. I want to hide my scent and presence from my brother for the time I am here. Or else he would come to me sooner or later!"
