Chapter 0381

"Oh, right..." I looked down at my towel cladded body and frowned at the girl now pacing the room. "Why exactly are you here then? As you can see I'm a bit, well, I'm naked." I gestured dramatically to my attire and prayed the girl would just walk away and leave me be, but instead her now once again worried eyes met mine.

"I'm worried about Olly." She allowed her finger tops to brush her prominent new mark, that rested on the crook of her neck, and looked up at me through her eyebrows. "He left hours ago with Lewis to check on the border, and he hasn't contacted me since. We can mindlink now and still I haven't heard from him, I'm really worried."

"Nah, don't be worried. Lewis often goes off to check on the border, sometimes he stays later to catch up with the patrol on that day. I'm sure he and Oliver are probably just talking about you, and how happy he is to have found his mate." I wasn't worried at all, it was typical of Lewis to do this, and it's not like they could contact us with a cell phone, as they were rare to replace.

"Your mate is out there right now, and you aren't worried about him at all?" I shook my head and sat on the end of the bed folding my towel between my legs to attempt some decency.

"I'm a bit worried, but not in the same way as you." She sat down next to me, uninvited I might add and looked at me sheepishly. "Look, you're newly marked, right, so that bond is still so new and fresh, that you're probably longing to be with Oliver, and so your mind as turned that longing into worry because you haven't heard from him. Just wait another hour, or two. If there's still nothing, I'll go to the border myself. Ok?" I patted her on her back awkwardly, and stood up, wrapping the towel tighter around myself.

"You sure know a lot about things, despite everything. I can understand to an extent why people follow you Even though I tend to disagree with your choices." She chuckled and I was shocked at having sucha moment with Vee.

"What was it like? Getting marked I mean."

"It was Amazing, your whole body tingles with pleasure. Even Oliver had to just lie down for a minute after releasing me, because he poured all his energy into it. God it was incredible." Her cheeks flared up just thinking about it, and I smiled slightly, maybe I should consider allowing lewis to mark me, the connection we share anyway would undoubtedly increase.

Our tender moment was cut short however, when a strained voice floated into my head. I forced trying my hardest to focus on the words but an uproar of noise began outside of the bedroom door, making it impossible for me to hear. I groaned, throwing some clothes on before exiting the room and making my way down stairs.

In the entrance of the pack house, stood Oliver, blood dripping from his head while he held himself up by leaning on the wall, every set of eyes were on him and me as I came into view. "King Josh has Lewis!"
