Alphas Deaf Mate
Chapter 84

Autumn

Today Reins said the members of the council were arriving it's would only be two coming but the council assured Reins that would be enough.

It's been a long few days since they brought her here she has done nothing but yelling, bang, and scream, she attacked one of the guards when he brought her food. She keeps demanding to see Reins but he hasn't gone down.

Gem growls every time her name is mentioned she wants to go down and rip her apart. As much as I want to give in to that idea I know it won't help anything and it would only make matters worse for when the council gets here so I just push that to the back. On a good note, I've got to know Ariel and her sister Gracie a little more. Gracie is the sweetest how Rachel could be so cruel to her is beyond me.

She and Ariel have a strong bond it reminds me of Zach and me always there for each other, but the older one protects the younger one.

Oscar has been helping Gracie adjust and showing her around the pack lands. She was so shy and after the treatment she got from Rachel, she was nervous around people she didn't know.

Oscar would be right there even though she doesn't feel the bond like he does she feels something for him as her cheeks get pink every time he's near her.

I got up this morning meeting Aunt Anna and my Mom along with Sophia in the kitchen, we all decided to help make the meals for the day with the council coming Aunt Anna was worried about them not liking her meals I don't know how anyone wouldn't like her cooking,

"Aunt Anna, it's only two more people coming not an army," Sophia chastised her while Mom and I laughed quietly while cutting up the fruit for the fruit salad Aunt Anna had on her list of dishes to make.

"I know this, but it's the council I don't want them leaving here saying they were not fed we'll while here, Now hush and finish those rolls and get them in the oven,"

"Aunt Anna im sure they won't say that, your cooking is the best," I go over side hugging her while she was seasoning the meat.

"Oh you sweetheart but I'm not taking the chances, they will be fed well and be full and happy while here on their business,"

Grabbing the bowels we need I just laughed at her silliness she had a heart of gold always wanting to take care of everyone, she was so warm and nice to me when I first came here always tho king of others, I was about to walk to Mom when his voice popped into my head.

"Love, where are you?"

"I'm in the kitchen helping Aunt Anna,"

Hearing a small chuckle from him.

"She still worried about the council coming,"

Reaching Mom I started putting the fruit we cut up in the bowl.

"Yes, I think she cooking for an army of warriors with how much food she preparing,"

"Well I hate to pull you away but I need to talk about something with you, could you come up to my office,"

I stopped what I was doing his voice sounded off.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing serious just want to discuss something,"

"I'll be right up,"

I set the bowl down went over and washed my hands.

"Sorry guys Reins needs me in the office,"

"Ok, sweetie go ahead we will finish up in here,"

Walking over I hugged Mom then Aunt Anna then headed out of the kitchen as I was walking out Zach and Ariel were walking toward me.

"We have been sent to help with the fest,"

Zach laughed while stopping to place a kiss on my forehead

"Yeah well I think we will be having leftovers for a while, Hi Ariel how are you?"

"I'm good, It smells so good down here,"

"Well, Aunt Anna said she was gonna make sure they were fed well and be full and happy,"

"If she cooks like this all the time I'm gonna gain so much weight, I haven't smelled cooking like this in forever,"

All three of us busted out laughing.

"Hey, where's Gracie?"

"Oh she with Oscar they were going out to gather some herbs she wants to start practicing again but she only wants to do natural spells," "Natural?"

"Yeah, It's kinda hard to explain because she is half elf her connection to nature is strong so she likes using Natural herbs and practicing outside, one of her abilities is she can use nature to power a spell,"

"Oh wow, that's so crazy there's so much to learn about all this, I mean I'm still trying to learn everything about my kind but that sound interesting,"

"Yes it's a lot but I'm glad she wants to learn this way, I've always been worried about people using her power the wrong way,"

Zach wrapped an arm around her shoulder kissing her temple.

"She safe here in the pack and having Oscar as a mate will only help protect her,"

She smiled up at him I was so happy to see my brother found someone, He dated a few girls while he was in school but never stayed with any always found some sort of flaw with them, and now I knew why, they weren't his mate I just always thought he got tired of their clinginess or always wanting him to fuss over them, heck even one was jealous over how protective he was over me.

"Love," Reins's voice came from behind me.

Turning around he was walking towards me with Keaton following.

Reaching us he pulled me to him kissing the top of my head.

"Zach I need you to come with us Ariel would you mind helping them in the kitchen please," Reins says as he kept me close to him.

"Sure I don't mind it smells wonderful in there,"

Leaning up she kissed his cheek walking into the kitchen.

"Is everything alright?" I asked looking between all of them.

Spinning us Reins started walking as Keaton and Zach followed.

"Reins," I call him again he looks down.

"We are going to talk to Rachel, "

Gem let out a growl which I thought was only in my head but I guess it wasn't as some of the people we passed kneeled dropping their heads. "She says she has something we will need to hear, both of us,"

"I don't want to speak to her and I don't want you near her,"

Watching his lips lift at the one corner he looks down again.

"You know my wolf loves it when you are jealous,

"I'm not jealous, I'm just uh,"

I didn't know what to finish when I heard him laughing as he pulled me tighter to his side. Leaning down close to my ear.

"It's okay my little wolf you can be jealous it's quite the turn-on,"

Feeling my face get red at his words and Gem was now all hot and bothered and ready to jump his bones.

Laughing he just held me close as he lead us out of the house.
