My Mate Is A Witch
Chapter 141

“She said that I’m a leech in your lives.”

Artemis growled loudly, hearing this. “How dare she!!”

“I… I know you both love me, but she said that you both would throw me away like my previous parents after having a… A new baby of your own.” Artin said, and by that time, he started sobbing while Caroline wiped his tears. Artemis looked all red. It looked like he would kill Erica at any moment.

“And do you believe her?” Caroline asked him softly.

Artin shook his head. His past had caused trauma in his life, because of which he couldn’t forget the incident that happened when he was just two years old, but at the same time, he hadn’t forgotten everything that his parents had done in all these years.

“That’s like my boy,” Caroline said and kissed his forehead.

“You guys continue. Let me take care of that bit….”

“Artemis.” Caroline glared at him for abusing him in front of Artin.

“I mean that female dog.” Artemis corrected himself.

“Female dog is called BITCH, Papa,” Artin said innocently, to which Artemis gave a scared look, scared of his mate.

‘I’m so dead. Leave from here quickly, or this witch will eat you alive.’

“I.. I know, son.” Artemis mumbled.

“I heard it; what did you just think? Sit here. Artin’s conversation is not ended yet.” Caroline said before speaking through the mind link. ‘And then I will eat you.’

‘Why does ‘EAT YOU’ sounds thrilling rather than ‘SCARY’?’ He questioned, on which Caroline rolled her eyes.

“Did.. did you both know that I’m Alpha Santino’s son?” Artin questioned.

“Yes, sweetheart. We did.” Caroline replied. “When we met, at that time, we didn’t know about it, but then my wolf picked your scent, which was similar to Santino’s scent. But it has nothing to do with your adoption. Just like we have told you before, we are repeating it again. We adopted you because we wanted to. Because you won our hearts with your little possessive habit.”

Saying this, Caroline kissed him again.

“Do you know why did he leave me? And who is my mother? And why did she do the same with me?”

“Sweetheart, you’re too young to understand this thing, but if you trust me, then I promise you that one day after a couple of years, I will answer this question because situations were complicated back then. All I can assure you is that they always loved you. It’s just the way of showing love is different.”

Artin thought about it for a while before nodding his head.

“Promise?”

“I promise.”

“But who is my mother?”

“She is the Female Gamma of Uncle Calvin’s pack.” Caroline replied and watched Artin’s expression, which recalled how the female Gamma of his uncle’s pack was showering love on him a few days back, but he pushed her away, thinking of her as a stranger because he had visited his uncle’s pack for the first time and so he was unfamiliar with everyone who was a new face to him.”

“Is… is she bad?” Artin questioned.

“No, sweetheart. Neither your real father nor your real mother is bad. Just like I told you, you will understand everything in a better way when you will grow older a little.”

“How much older?”

“Fourteen or fifteen? Old enough to understand the relationship between elder couples.” Caroline responded.

“Oh, okay!!” Artin didn’t force Caroline to tell everything to him immediately because as much as he was possessive of his mother, he loved her and trusted her in the same way.

“And you aren’t a leech of our lives. You are our pup. If anyone says anything like that to you again, then tell me, and I will deal with him or her personally.”

“Okay, Papa.”

“One more question.”

“Ask as many as the question you want, sweetheart.”

“Will you both love me in the same way after the arrival of your own pup?” Artin question before adding. “Just answer in Yes and No.”

“Of course, yes, champ! Don’t you trust our love for you? Hmm,” Artemis asked, pulling Artin in his lap. “Love is thicker…

“…than b***d.” Artin completed. “I know that. And will your own pup love me in the same way as you both do?”

“Why are you asking this, Artin?” Caroline asked in confusion.

“Please, answer me, Mamma.”

“Of course, he or she will,” Caroline replied.

“And in case he or she won’t, then his or her cheeks and my hand will clap together,” Artemis replied. “Just like we scold you to behave like a good boy. In the same way, we will scold him or her,” he added.

“Hmm.” Artin felt satisfied with their answers.

“Now, come on!! You should sleep. Tomorrow we are going to New York by private jet, just like you want. So that you and Xav can see clouds, remember?” Caroline said.

“Just one more thing, please. It’s urgent.” Artin stopped his mother.

“Okay, go ahead. But this will be sure your last question.” Artemis responded.

“The day after tomorrow is Christmas, right?” He asked, to which they nodded their head. “All these years, everyone gave a gift to me, but I never did. This year, I’m giving a gift to Xav and Rose for the first time. In the same way, I also planned to gift you both something.”

“Us?”

“Yes!!” Artin nodded his head happily and ran away from there to get the gift that he had got for them while Caroline and Artemis looked at each other, silently questioning it. And they figured out that they both were clueless about it.
