Chapter 40: Don't you dare!

Kavyaa paced back and fourth as she heard Mark talk excitedly over the phone.

He'd been busy painting a nursery as he spoke with her excited to welcome his new born soon.

M: "Everything ok sunshine you seem to have gone quite quiet?"

Kavyaa swallowed her sob. After all she'd been through, she was glad to be able to speak with him.

"Yes, no sorry I'm here. I'm just happy to hear your voice Mark. I thought you might have forgotten about me?"

M: "Forget about you? Sunshine I could never forget you, not even in a million years!"

Even though she stood far away from his desk, and admired the tropical fishes in his aquarium.

Ethan could hear everything from across his huge room, thanks to his enhanced listening powers.

Angry at hearing Mark say that to his favourite lamb, he snapped his pencil.

Kavyaa turned around, surprised by a snapping sound, but all she could see was Ethan concentrating on a file he was reading through.

"Hey, umm, I was wondering when you would be coming to get me?"

M: "Get you?"

Ethan sharply looked at her.

Just thinking about her leaving his territory would make him and his inner wolf sad.

Mark may have stolen his girlfriend two hundred years ago, but he wouldn't dare let him take Kavyaa away from him.

"Yeah, remember I was only supposed to stay here for three months?" She whispered reminding him.

Ethan wished to snatch the phone from her, and never let her continue on with this conversation. But being the kind gentleman, he let her be.

He'd have win her over to stay on his territory for good. But how?

Was marking her the only option he had?

M: "About that, sunshine..." he nervously scratched the back of his hair.

M: "I'm afraid you'll need to stay with Ethan a little longer."

Ethan's heart lightened up, finally the overbearing, girlfriend stealing Alpha douchebag pr!ck finally said something he approved of.

"How much longer, Mark?" Kavyaa asked, wanting to get out of this town for reasons she couldn't quite express over the phone.

M: "Another 3 months."

Ethan sighed out of relief. He still had plenty of time to get into shape and kick his @$$ when he came back.

"Another 3 months? Mark, you said you'd have a new place for me?"

She walked towards the window, over looking the picturesque view of the forest.

M: "I'm sorry sunshine, but it's taking quite longer than expected and we have to be careful of Kane, who unfortunately is still hunting you."

A wild chill ran down her spine. That jerk was still looking for her.

M: "Kavyaa, is everything alright?"

"No." She whispered.

Ethan looked back over to her from his paper work, with concern hidden under his calm collective features.

M: "No? What's wrong?"

With Mark's baby due in a couple of weeks time, Kavyaa bit her lower lip, not wanting him to worry about her.

"No, [sighs] I meant to say 'No, everything is fine, Mark."

M: "You don't sound too convincing. Is it Ethan? Is he giving you a hard time there? Want me to k!ck his a$$ for you?"

Kavyaa couldn't help but chuckle when he said that.

"Well that won't be necessary. Ethan's taking good care of me. Actually I'm currently living at his castle."

M: "What?! Why? That's not what we agreed upon! Kavyaa you're supposed to be staying at my place not his!"

He sounded alarmed.

Ethan easily smirked.

Kavyaa, sighed out. She was happy that Mark called her by her real name, after a long time. She hated being called Mia, but knowing it was for her protection she kept up with her false name.

Unfortunately, he wasn't the only one who knew her real name too.

"Relax, it's only for a little while. I just called to say I miss you and Haru, and can't wait to see your new baby soon. Do you know what sex the baby is yet?" She asked, trying to distract herself from her troubled thoughts.

M"Umm, no, we told the doctor to keep it a surprise. Hey, I miss you alot too sunshine and so does Haru and I can't wait to see you soon, but for now, can you pass the call over to Ethan please?"

"Umm, sure."

Kavyaa walked back over to Ethan's desk, and saw him quite engrossed in reading a file.

"Ethan?"

"Yes, sweetness?" He cooed, making Mark clench his phone tighter than usual.

"Mark would like to talk to you."

"Does he? Well tell him I'm busy."

Kavyaa was surprised that he chose to ignore his cousin.

She awkwardly relayed the message back to him.

"Hey Mark umm Ethan's kind of..."

M: "Sunshine, he's not busy, now give him the phone por favore?"

She covered the speaker side of the phone with her thumb.

"Ethan, please take the call? Mark really wishes to speak with you? Trust me he's quite insistent in Spanish too."

Ethan sighed, a little annoyed and took the phone from her.

"Very well."

"What is it Mark! I'm busy." He fired in a rude tone.

Mark easily replied with was a very loud animalistic angry growl that Kavyaa overheard, just before he lowered the volume on his speaker.

"Mia, sweetness do you mind waiting outside with my secretaries?"

"Umm sure?"

"Thankyou, and please close the door behind you."

Kavyaa nodded and walked away, leaving him alone to chat with his cousin.

M: "Why is Mia, staying at your castle?"

Ethan was furious at him, for lying about her true identity. He wished that he could call her by his real name and embrace her, but his over protective cousin refused.

"Why is Kane really after her?"

M: "If you must know, she witnessed his men, murdering her foster carer and her neighbour. We all know Kane, he's not the type to let any witnesses live either."

"I see, and you're sure there's no other reason?"

M: "What do you mean by that?" Mark asked darkly.

"Cut the bull$hit Mark. I know Kavyaa isn't human."

Mark stopped painting and switched his call to video.

Ethan gradually swiped right accepting his video call with a smug on his face.

M: "I see you did your little research on her, how much do you know?"

"Well her scent got me curious, since she doesn't smell like a normal lamb. So I kept a close eye on her and discovered her display her powers out in the woods, I really wish you were honest with me."

"How could I have been honest with you? You're a greedy lusty mateless wolf. I just wanted to protect her. You know what, I'll be sending my men to come and collect her, before the blood moon strikes by next week."

Ethan scoffed.

"You think I can't control myself around her, due to the bad moon?"

With a juicy scent like that, no male wolf would be able to control their lusty senses around her.

M: "Kavyaa is an innocent pure girl. I won't have you messing with her like that."

Ethan smirked as Mark flashed his eyes red at him.

M: "Why is she really at your castle?"

"Hmm, well she's currently a cute not to mention hot 19 year old girl, whose almost turning 20 in two weeks and she smells quite ripe. So isn't it obvious?"

M:"Don't you dare touch her! I swear if I see your mark on her Ethan..."

"Ofcourse she's going to be marked! You brought her to me, remember? I'm just a mate less wolf, whose grown quite fond of her. Besides, why can't I mark her? I remember you stole Haru from me, so count this as payback b!tch. Kavyaa is mine." Ethan glowed his eyes silver at him dangerously meaning everything he said, without a joke.

Mark eyes grew furious at what he just said, and as soon as he went to growl at him, Ethan easily cut the call and blocked him.

He smirked seeing him get agitated.

Ofcourse he was going to have his way with her!

He was hot blooded Alpha, with his eyes set on Kavyaa.

No one was going to stop him from claiming her.

Not even Mark.
