Chapter 12: Elijah's p.o.v...11
The closer we got to the front door the stronger her scent was the more fucking exhilarating, what did surprise me was how much Violet thought about security there were a couple of cameras i could see, plus a biometric, electronic key pad door lock. I looked around the house was beautiful becoming part of the surroundings the designer had really thought about it, i was intrigued who designed the house i had to ask Laura “who designed this build” i asked
she smiled so broadly it lit up her face “violet.... she wanted me to feel save when i shifted so she bought this and the land, it’s beautiful isn’t”
‘Our mate is amazingly talented’ Brax spoke he had been unusually quiet, it wasn’t often i felt Brax’s unease but i could today.
‘don’t fuck this up for us’ i shook my head why would he be thinking i would be fucking this up, he was just as eager as me to see her and claim her...
Laura opened the door, shaking her head “that’s strange, Violets usually awake with the larks” she said
“babe she did have a late night, not everyone has a wolfs stamina” i couldn’t help but look at Jasper with that comment but Laura had seen it making Jasper curse
“what’s going on?” turning on him immediately, i stepped in instantly “i wanted to see Violet and her work” i didn’t need to justify my self to her but i knew that Laura was extremely protective of Violet
“you could have called Jason to see her work, what’s the urgency now” she asked, this from the women who didn’t say boo to a goose at the fucking house was now a master interrogator, Jasper just smiled “because there are thing i need to discuss with Violet” i answered as honestly as i could i knew she had her suspicions last night i guess she was testing the theory now.
“why?” she asked again and i knew i wasn’t getting further in the house unless i answered or forced her too. No i went with the first not the latter, just in case you were wondering if i was going to be the big bad wolf.....
“she is my mate” there it was out int he either, she studied me a moment or two before speaking again “but she has no wolf, doesn’t that bother you?” i could hear the genuine concern in her voice “why would it?” i asked her back. I could see her recoil back into herself she shook herself
“but an Alpha like you to have a wolf-less mate your pack will talk” there was worry there
“Violet has a wolf Laura”
“but she has no wolf” i answered her honestly after all she did just deeply buried, she sounded confused, I’m was guessingg what her thoughts were next when she asked me “why would the moon goddess give you wolf-less mate”
“she has a wolf Laura, she is just buried deep she hasn’t woke yet” i reiterated to her again this time pulling her away from herself a moment to allow that to sink in.
“why? How?” she asked me stunned
“that i didn’t know, but i was going to do my damned hardest to find out” i told her she didn’t speak any further too deep in thought,
“she is my sister and i will do whatever i have to do to keep her safe” she said rounded her shoulders at me showing her sincerity of her words
“Laura i have no intentions of hurting your sister, she is my mate and your Luna all i want is to love her”
“that might be harder than you think” she said biting the inside of her mouth. I followed her into the rest of the house it was stunning inside as it was outside huge open plan design with a classic conservatory which had an oak tree growing in the middle of it, no description would give her home justice.
You could instantly tell Violet like cooking it was definitely a chefs type kitchen full with walk in pantry, i felt at home here a little more so here than i did in the house i designed for us all to live in.
“what are you going to do?” she asked me curiously
“she is my mate Laura and i want her” i could see Jasper watching us from the corner of my eye, he turned him.
“what are you going to do, she’s feisty last night proved that” he said softly, although not quite soft enough to stop Brax trickle out a growl of warning.
“i didn’t mean anything bad” he spoke quickly
“that fucking guy had his paws all over her, how the fuck did he get in the lounge in the first place and who the fuck is he?” i asked now.
It was clear now that Violet wasn’t up yet so i nudged Laura to go and wake her
“wow... Really? She’s going to be so mad about this, she doesn’t allow people, well strangers into her space”
“Laura hate to break it to you, but you’re her sister not quite the same as if i and Jasper went up there and did it....” i said she seemed astonished the more i learned about her the more i was beginning to think she was a recluse. I don’t mind admitting that was concerning because wolves weren’t they are sociable animals.
“finding his mate turns him into a funny man” she spit out not aggressively but playful making Jasper and i smile at her. I sat in the arm chair looking out the window i was like a cat on a hot tinned roof now, all Brax and i could think about was claiming our mate. My patience broke as he shouted up the stairs for them to hurry the fuck up, succeeding in making Jasper laugh at me as he took a seat on the sofa i watched as Laura climbed the stairs to go and wake my mate
“i am going to enjoy this brother, just like you enjoyed teasing me when i met Laura” i scoffed
“you acted like a love sick puppy” i gruffed out at him
“and you think you won’t” i didn’t answer because in truth i had no fucking idea what this bond was going to do to me.
To Laura’s surprise Violet was still in bed, usually she was up with the larks, i did remind her that the early bird became a bit of a night owl last night by the time she left the club.
Laura ran upstairs to wake her up and i continued to look around, the design was beautiful a mix of nature and modernism, it seemed we had something in common because i had designed our home and the pack house, it was nice to know that it was actually Violet and Laura who owned the part of woodland which back on to the edge of our territory meaning Brax and i would now be running in this woodland quite often from now one.
Laura came down the stairs straight into the kitchen reaching for the kettle, followed shortly by Violet trussed up in a long robe like a Christmas turkey, her hair all tussled like she had been ravished the night before. Despite me making it sound like she was scary Mary she looked hot as fuck!
“couldn’t you have called first” she asked Laura as she went over to help her with the coffee machine.
“any muffins left” Jasper asked and Laura went straight to the pantry to get the tin and placed some on the plates.
“haven’t you eaten yet” Violet asked her Laura just shook her head so Violet quickly went to the fridge and pulled out the ingredients for a full English, putting the sausages in the air fryer along with some hash browns.
Jasper spoke to Laura through their link because she took off for the office leaving Violet to continue with the breakfast alone , it was only on her return when she was placing the food on the table that she realised she was missing.
