The White Wolf Series Book 3 – CHAPTER 131- One mistake

(Logan POV)

I really enjoyed the look on the f*ucker’s face. I enjoyed it so much that it was hard to keep the smirk off my face.

Nice job, baby. I mind-linked Emma.

She didn’t respond.

I could feel her tension.

This had to be so f*ucking hard for her. Even if I didn’t want to admit it to myself, he was her mate. She felt the bond with him just as much as she felt it with me. Keeping a distance from him and hurting him must have been so f*ucking hard for her.

‘It wouldn’t be hard for me.’ Leon growled. ‘I would rip him to f*ucking pieces.’

‘I know.’ I sighed. ‘But you know that we can’t do that, Leon.’ ‘I know.’ he growled again. ‘I wish that we could, though.’

‘Me too.’ I said.

“I don’t know what you are talking about.” the f*ucker said nervously.

Emma took a deep breath and shook her head.

“Please don’t lie to me, Alpha Nathan.” Emma said calmly. “I know that you are working with rogues.”

Alpha Nathan tightened his jaw and clenched his fists.

“Emma, please give me a chance to explain.” he said, his voice laced with anger.

“I’m not sure that I want to hear your explanation.” Emma sighed. “Maybe you didn’t know that they kidnapped me, but I’m sure that you knew that they killed my parents. I don’t think that there is anything to explain, Alpha Nathan.”

A quiet growl escaped him. I pulled Emma’s chair back.

He looked up at me and narrowed his eyes.

“I am not going to hurt my mate.” he said, gritting his teeth.

Every time he said ‘my mate’, it felt like a hot knife was piercing through my heart.

“Alpha Nathan, please leave my office.” Emma said. “I have work to do.”

He looked at her, and his eyes widened.

“It was my father!” he said, panicking.

I raised an eyebrow at him. Was he really going to do this? Was he really going to blame his father for his stupid decisions?

“Please, Alpha Nathan.” Emma sighed. “You are the Alpha of your pack, aren’t you? It may have been your father’s idea, but it was your order and your decision.”

That’s my f*ucking girl!

Alpha Nathan clenched his fists.

“You are right, Emma.” he said. “It was my decision. It was a wrong one, I admit. But can you really throw away our bond just because I made one mistake? Logan never made mistakes?”

I froze.

I did. I made a huge f*ucking mistake.

My heart raced. My palms started sweating.

What would Emma say? Would he convince her to give him a chance? He wasn’t wrong. I made mistakes. So many f*ucking mistakes.

The second it took Emma to answer him was the longest second of my f*ucking life.

“I am not throwing away our bond because of your mistake, Alpha Nathan.” Emma said. “I am already mated and married to another man. I don’t want to divorce him. I don’t want to break my bond with him. I love him. That’s the reason I don’t want to be your mate.”

Oh, thank f*uck.

My heart was going to jump out of my c*hest. I was so f*ucking sure of it.

Anger flashed in Alpha Nathan’s eyes.

He tightened his jaw and gulped.

“I don’t accept that, Emma.” he said. “You have to give me a chance. I am so f*ucking sure that I am your Goddess-given mate. I can’t let you live your life tied to a curse.”

I saw f*ucking red. A growl that escaped my l*ips was impossible to stop.

I was not her curse! Our love was not a curse! Everything we’ve been through was not a f*ucking curse!

The f*ucker looked up at me.

“One of us is the cursed mate, Alpha Logan.” he said, making me clench my fists. “I come from the oldest pack. I am a descendant of the Alpha who was the first White Wolf’s Goddess-given mate. The chances are on my side, Alpha Logan.”

My heart broke into a million f*ucking pieces.

Don’t listen to him. Emma mind-linked me.

I couldn’t respond. I couldn’t get the air into my lungs.

“I don’t care about that, Alpha Nathan.” Emma said. “Even if Logan is my cursed mate, I would stay with him. This isn’t about who is my Goddess-given mate and who is my cursed mate. This is about who I love. And I love Logan. I want to stay with Logan.”

Warmth spread through my b*dy.

The broken pieces of my heart hurt a little less. They started to heal. Her love could heal every single part of my b*dy, heart, and soul.

I wanted to mind-link her and tell her how f*ucking much I loved her, but I couldn’t focus. I could only focus on the lump in my throat.

I needed the f*ucker to leave the room so I could take her into my arms and show her how much I loved her.

“I demand a chance, Emma.” a very pissed-off Alpha Nathan said. “I demand you reconsider your decision to stay with Logan. What kind of mate would I be if I left my girl to be affected by a curse her whole life?”

I didn’t know what pissed me off more, him calling her his girl or calling our bond a curse. Or maybe even him demanding something from my mate.

“Careful, Alpha Nathan.” I growled. “You are in no position to demand anything.”

He looked at me and raised his eyebrows.

“I think I am, Alpha Logan.” he said. “Or would you want to do this the hard way?”

We can’t let him start a war! Emma mind-linked me, and I could hear worry in her voice.

He won’t, baby, don’t worry. I said.

“What do you want, Alpha Nathan?” Emma asked, making him look at her.

“A dinner.” the f*ucker said. “Just you and me, Emma. I don’t want to be interrupted by your mate, your brother, or any other member of your pack.”

I saw f*ucking red.

No.

No f*ucking way.

I growled loudly, making the f*ucker smirk.

“I will think about it and let you know.” Emma said calmly.

She would think about it?!

I looked down at her and tightened my jaw.

“I expect your answer by tomorrow, Emma.” the f*ucker said as he stood up.

Emma didn’t respond. She kept her eyes on him as he started to leave the room.

I didn’t even look up at the f*ucker. I didn’t want to. I didn’t need to.

As soon as I heard the door close, I turned Emma’s chair toward me, bent down, and pressed my l*ips against hers.

I had no f*ucking idea how I managed to stay so calm with that f*ucker in the room.

All I wanted to do was wrap my hands around his n*eck, squeeze, and watch the life leave his b*dy.
