Chapter 99: LIES BETWEEN US
TALA’S POV
Hiding behind the path that led to Mount Chugach Jail, I waited for Hunter to appear after Everest gave me the intel that our mole in the Golden Pack shifter had given us. He had also informed me that Lobo Aria had a private meeting with Ralph Isla and Boris Carter last night. Hunter was unhappy as he barged into the offices and left angry. The whole enforcer office and members kept away from him, as he had been in a foul mood since then.
The truth was, I had for years my wolf sensed that Hunter was my mate. At first, I was angry and cursed at the moon gods for the destiny they bestowed upon me. But when I left the enforcers and sought the protection of Lucian, I realized Hunter was already deep in Lobo Aria’s clutches. Hence, I had made a mental note to help him. Especially since lately, Lobo Aria seemed to overlook Hunter by using the mangy wolves for his benefit.
"And where the fuck is he?" I cursed after an hour of waiting.
"Why are you following me?" I heard Hunter’s voice reach my ears.
"I am not" I turned around and found Hunter leaning by the tree looking bored with a rack sack on his back.
"Tala, I am not in the mood for any games or jokes today. Go away, " He said and turned around to leave.
"You know, felt the mating call for so many years. Yet I held back. " I spoke up to him and saw how his body stiffened at my words. I had decided to hit directly at him with my words and not beat around the bush.
"What are you talking about? " He turned around, feigning innocence, and demanded.
I smirked at him as I sat down on the meadow and then chuckled, " Did you suppress your wolf? Is that why he never makes a move or what ?"
"Watch your mouth lil gal" Hunter growled at me as his hands fisted at his sides.
