The Lycan’s Human Mate

Traian’s POV

Claire’s smile turned into a grin as I unlocked the door, her eyes widening and her frowning brows lifting. I shook my head at him, knowing what she was thinking.

Claire screamed, “Oh my Lord,” but Evan put a hand on her shoulder and continued, quietly.

“Now, Claire, we couldn’t allow your Luna to hear you.”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Right away, Claire began speaking more softly while carefully clapping. “Oh my god, you two slept together”

I merely gave her a nod before widening my front door to welcome them inside. “I believe I owe Evan a drink for stopping at you back there, Claire.”

While Claire lightly poked his arm in jest, Evan chuckled. “You two just assumed it, so please, Alpha, I won’t be talking so loudly”

Both Evan and I reacted to her by saying, “I don’t think so.”

Claire glared at us, and Evan laughed as I smiled in response. While they took a seat in the living room, I went to the kitchen and got them something to drink. I sat across from them.

Knowing Claire wouldn’t just drop by without a purpose, I questioned immediately, “What are you two doing here?”

I know the members of my pack.

Evan held Claire’s thighs to comfort her as she sighed and leaned back on the couch. They both marked each other, that’s why whatever Claire is feeling, it resonated with Evan. I can tell that Claire is annoyed or displeased by the way her eyebrows are raised and her lips are pursed. One benefit of friends marking each other was this. They are able to understand one another’s emotions. In cases where someone is in danger, this is particularly important. A small tattoo of the moon will appear when two partners mark each other, letting all shifters know that one of their kind has already been taken and claimed. This tattoo appears between the marking sites on the neck and shoulder.

My inner wolf and I can’t wait until Jaidyn wears their tattoo. He also asserts their claim to her. By biting their mates, humans may formally claim them as their own. Despite not possessing the werewolf gene, they were destined for us. There is no science with it but a magic that flows on the bonds between mates.

The mark will naturally be made by the mate bond.

With her arms crossed, Claire said, “I heard about an incident in the town yesterday. And I just can’t believe Lara did that and attempted to harm Jaidyn knowing who she is”

I briefly turned to look up at the stairs before saying, “I’ll talk to her after I take Jaidyn to her cabin.”

Claire frankly said, “I guess Lara imagined that she would be our Luna.”

I answered flippantly, “She will never be”

Even though I don’t want to think of it or connect that tiniest supposition to Lara since she was a dear friend of mine. Because she was a friend and more or less served as the little sister I never had, like Claire, I never slept with her once. However, perhaps my friendliness sent a different message to her. Lara once confessed to me, but I rejected her because I knew I couldn’t let anyone else-especially not her-be my Luna besides my mate.

Although Lara was a strong and intelligent woman, she also had the tendency to become fixated on her plans. She merely desires that her wishes be carried out. I require a person who will honestly take into account the opinions and feelings of the members of my pack. My pack members are the things that matter most to me, besides my mate. They are my family, and it is my responsibility to keep them safe and ensure their comfort.

“I know. Everyone knows that you will choose Jaidyn over her. And she had found her mate. That’s why some suggested banishing Lara from the pack. She dared to hurt our Luna despite knowing who she was, I think we should prevent something worse.”

Evan asked, “She found her mate?”

“Yes, I believe the rumor to be true that her mate was a human who she had recently slept with. If I’m not mistaken, his name is Adam.”

I shake my head, “I cannot banish her. Banishing her means she will be forced into the wild and be a rogue. Packs have been careful in accepting wolves that have been banished on their own packs. And it will be unfair to her. This was her first attempt, Claire. I don’t want it to happen again but I also don’t want to rip another chance on her”

Claire went silent.

“I don’t lead in that manner. It’s fair to give her a chance, and I don’t think Jaidyn will agree to exile her immediately if she learns everything,”

My mate and I have only been together for a short while, yet it already feels like we have been together for a very long time. She was an understanding, sympathetic, and kind person. She will become enraged if she learns that I exiled someone after accidentally injuring her once.

I continued, thinking about Lara’s grandma, “And Mrs. Vicky will be devastated at that decision.”

“I forgot Mrs. Vicky. You’re right. Banishing Lara in an instant will shatter the old woman and not fair to her, I guess,” grumbled Claire.

Evan answered, “Claire, he’s your Alpha for a reason”

Knowing that it was typical among our species for the woman-wolf to join the man’s pack, I said, “Not for long when she transferred to your pack.”

I arched my brow as Claire smirked at me. I concluded because of her response, “I guess not”

“We informed Alpha Jaxon last night that we had decided to stay here for an additional two years.

I nodded in understanding. “I am happy to hear that”

I am quite relieved to learn that they would only be staying for a short while because Claire was a dear friend of mine.

“I can’t let Cayden alone not till he can’t find her partner yet” she replied.
