Her Dark Lycan
chapter 30

'E-Enzo?" Venus stuttered, confused and baffled

the only response she got was heavy breathing, and he eyed her with a crazed look, he looked torn.Venus knew he was on edge and anything she'd do would be a trigger from him and he would shiftcompletely, if that happened he'd rip apart everything in sight, kaya was whimpering at the back ofher head, worried for her mate but submitting to the sheer raw power he was emitting.

Venus was in utter shock, unable to decipher what had just happened,

'Enzo w-what?'

“mate,’ he muttered through clenched teeth, rage dripping from his tone as his hands fisted on thetable clenched even further, gently almost cautiously Venus placed her small hand over his largefisted one, as the sparks from the mate bond came to life, calming down the raging lycan just alittle, breathing in deeply he clenched his eyes shut, and stayed still for a few seconds, the tremorshis body was making to suppress his lycan subsided and after a while he opened his eyes and raisedcalm blue green eyes to Venus.

breathing a sigh of relief Venus hugged Dante tightly, wrapping her arms around his neck as hehesitantly placed his arms around her waist.

“what happened?’ Venus asked, her voice weak from the unexpected turn of events

“nothing,’ he muttered with a dark expression on his face

and Venus didn't push it further, she knew he was on edge and being persistent wouldn't help, butshe would ask him tonight before they head to bed. Giving him a soft kiss on the cheek she pattedhis back and quietly left the room while Dante was left alone, his dark thoughts consuming him,possibilities of the worst hounding him and loneliness from what would happen if she found outcreeping into him.

After joining everyone downstairs venus's mood got a bit better, her overthinking stopping slightlyas the uplifting aura around her that her friends carried made her feel at ease. After a good whileDante entered the living room, with a half asleep Abel in his arms, the sight of his tall 6'3 frame withpure toned muscle hugged by his slacks and dress shirt holding a little baby in his arms madeVenus's heart slam into her ribs, as a warm feeling blossomed in her chest making her feel all warmand fuzzy inside, a bright smile creeping onto her face.

James saw the entire exchange and nudged Sophia who stopped her bantering and looked at thescene in front of him, but what worried Sophia that James seemed to miss was the haunted look onDante's face.

'he woke up when i was getting some stuff from our room,’ Dante informed in a deep rough voice.Venus nodded, her tongue seemed limp of words as she took a half awake half asleep Abel fromdante's arms, cooing to him as he giggled at her and nuzzled into her arms, the sight was one tomake a grown man coo

“Dante i wan-,

“Dante rogues caught at the south border, we have to go now," Gabriel said, cutting off Venus as theroom grew tense, Knox kissed Sophia and the baby bump longingly and the three left in tense hurrywithout another word.

'be safe please, i love you,’ Venus mind-linked to her mate,

'i will," was all he mind-linked back,

at this point Venus's worry escalated to alarm, she needed to talk to him as soon as possible anddemand for him to tell her what was going on.

Just like that it was nightfall, Venus with Sophia and James dropped Abel back at the pack houseand came back home to have dinner, it was past 11 now and the men still weren't home, Sophiasaid she couldn't wait anymore and had to head back home, games said the same, that they wouldwait there for their mates and then they left. Alone at home Venus sat in the kitchen after clearingup the table and cleaning the dishes, she tried mind linking Dante a bunch of times but he hadn'tresponded back, Venus was about to call him when the main door opened and Dante walkedthrough, his hair messy as dark locks fell over his forehead, as if he had been running his fingersthrough them all day.

“Dante,’ Venus breathed and ran up to him and gave him a tight hug,

'i was so worried,’ she said, keeping her arms around him and giving him a kiss on the jaw,

Dante nodded and kissed her back on the forehead,

“what happened is everything okay?’

'yes we settled the rogue problem, they wont be coming back for a long while now,’

“did you chase them off orrrrr ...2"

'no we talked,"

“what?

Venus slapped Dante lightly on the chest and giggled, “i think everyone knows what your definitionof talking is,"

“well what can i say," he said, grinning at her and giving her a peck on the lips.

After a while when Dante had his dinner and they were preparing to go to bed, Venus mustered upher courage and asked her mate the question that had been hounding her all day, a fact aboutDante was that he spoke very less and hated discussing one matter over and over again.

'baby?* Venus called out, as Dante walked out of the bathroom only with a pair of sweats

“hmmm,’

“about earlier today ...,"

“what?

“Dante stop acting oblivious you know exactly what I'm talking about, Enzo coming out, how you'vebeen acting and avoiding me?" Venus said frustrated

nothing but unsettling silence continued

“why are you like this?" Venus asked

no answer

“why did you react like that?"

silence again

'DANTE TELL ME RIGHT NOW OR I SWEAR T-

“we cant have pups,’

his voice was so calm, so collected that Venus almost scoffed but the look, the haunted look on hisface told her otherwise.

“what, she breathed out in disbelief

'yes, we cant have pups,’

her heart started beating fast, she could hear the blood roaring in her ears and the wild thumping inher chest, what did he mean they couldn't have pups, he didn't want kids? Venus thought as hermind went crazy with a million gushing thoughts.

'you don't want to have ki-'

'no Venus i do but you wont be able to give me pups,’

She could have sworn someone ripped her heart into two.
