“Mm, I comprehend.” and regrettably, she did.
The Mate Bond was exceedingly potent; despite her frailty while attempting to depart, she could not refuse Ryder. In fact, she craved more, permitting him to exert his will over her for as long as he desired. He, too, was a remarkably dominant man who restrained her, and at that moment, she yearned for him entirely, in whatever capacity she could attain.
“Am I in jeopardy?”Stella abruptly enquired of her.
“Indeed, those individuals.” Brianna sighed, pondering how to elucidate this to a human.“They are all highly possessive beings.”
“Entities?” In that regard, Brianna. I assert that the man growled directly at me on multiple occasions; I have never experienced such behaviour from a man before. It was peculiar yet simultaneously heightened my arousal.
“Hmm.” Fascinating…Stella. Carlos, did he convey anything that would suggest you now belong to him in any capacity?Wolves needed to exercise caution in their communication, as human mates were unlike wolves and required a more gradual approach.
“Indeed, he stated, and I quote, ‘Do not even think of leaving; you belong to me now.’”
That was unfavourable; he unequivocally asserted his claim on Stella. She was his Mate; no wolf would utter such words to anyone who was not their Mate. “You are undoubtedly in a predicament, Stella.” She exhaled and regarded her friend with a hint of remorse. “Carlos probably thinks you belong to him now.” That man will pursue you relentlessly to reclaim you.
Observed Stella biting her lip. “It was merely a transient encounter.” I successfully evaded detection and departed in the morning. The man was unconscious.
“In what manner?”She was intrigued by the implication that Nolan and his wolf had mated with her.
“I discreetly exited the room, but the other individual must have roused him somehow; I did not observe him entering the room. He approached me afterward and informed me that I was not permitted to leave him.”
“However, you did.”
“Indeed, the most peculiar occurrence.” I observed Mr. Scrumptious sprinting across the Estate as I departed; I have never witnessed anything move so swiftly in my entire life.
“Unfavorable; he was pursuing you, I would assert.”
“Subsequently, the situation became quite peculiar, Brianna.” I witnessed his brother grapple with a colossal wolf that emerged suddenly in front of my vehicle and was pursuing me. I have never encountered a wolf of such size before. It was abnormal. Then Enzo, as you mentioned, engaged with the wolf and shouted at me to leave. I departed. It was the most astonishing phenomenon I have ever witnessed.
Brianna nodded, affirming her belief; she was undoubtedly Carlos’s mate. Undoubtedly, her departure infuriated him, unleashing his wolf to assert dominance over her in its primal form. She was exceedingly fortunate that Enzo had intervened.
Contemplated the duration required for Carlos to locate Stella, persuade her to become his human girlfriend, reintegrate her into the pack, and ultimately transform her. She was once a member of the pack.
If Ryder enquired about Brianna or if Stella experienced any remorse regarding her awareness of Logan’s status as Ryder’s, she would likely feel this guilt once transformed and comprehended her role within the pack, including the dynamics of Logan being the rightful heir. It was probable that she would inform him.
Carlos will likely be informed first, as she confides in her Mate, unaware that he would immediately disclose this to Ryder, alarmed by the existence of an unknown heir with rogue status associated with his Alpha. That was unlikely to be well received by the Alpha Wolf within him.
She would subsequently become the target of a hunt. It appeared that her ordinary human existence was on the verge of being disrupted.
“What information did you convey to him regarding my whereabouts?” Do you remember?
I remember informing him that you were at the store. I do not remember informing him which one.
“Why are they still searching for me?” It’s just a bloody dress.” she muttered.
“Maybe it’s not about the dress anymore, Brianna. Perhaps…” her gaze shifted to the closed door, “Ryder is aware of Logan in some manner. You stated that they were entirely possessive beings.
“That is highly improbable; I was unaware of my pregnancy until weeks after my departure,” she stated, shaking her head. “Moreover, he never sought me out. And why would he?” He had no idea who she had been to him, just a good freak was all, pushed that pain away. “Do not concern yourself with it, Stella, at the store.” They will remain in the United States, inspecting my stores, rather than being present here.
“Isn’t this store listed on the website as opening soon?””
Brianna shut her eyes, having overlooked that detail. “It is,” she sighed, “but who knows if they will venture all the way out here.” Carlos is likely to do so,” she directed her gaze at Stella.
“He will not relinquish you readily.” I am aware of that to a significant extent.
“It was merely one night, Brianna.”
“For you.” “Not directed towards him.”
