Cold Hearted Mate
Chapter 44

When the intimate dinner of Alpha Connor and Louve ended, it was clear that Alpha Connor wanted to spend more time with Louve but they have to end the night because it may create some suspicion around the guards to what is taking place at the garden. As far as everyone knows, there is a preparation and rehearsals being made for certain guests from other allied wolf packs due to the planning for the war against rogue werewolves. Alpha Connor, the Executive Officers and Lady Alina had to arrange the whole set-up to avoid any unnecessary suspicions.

They have to make sure that the identity of Louve as the future Luna of the Dark Moon Pack in the mate of their Alpha Connor is kept hidden. Louve has not completely embraced the fact that she is the future Luna. Vulnerability of any mate of an Alpha of a wolf pack is well known to all. The mate of an Alpha are the usual first target of any enemies of an Alpha werewolf. This is something that Alpha Connor is trying to avoid. Protecting Louve from a more dangerous situation or being vulnerable from their enemies in the time of war is a priority for Alpha Connor at the moment why they are not yet officially announced that they are mated, Louve identity will remain as the niece of Lady Alina. If you are not reading this novel on J obnib.com, some sentences are incomplete. Next morning, Louve went ahead to her own room near the main chambers. A heavy sigh was released by Louve and went to her bed hugging the soft pillow. Orla went out from the shadows and checked on Louve is clearly snuggling on the pillow. The feral wolf who became a pet-like guardian of Louve is curiously watching Louve giggling and snuggling the soft pillow within her arms. "Looks like someone is feeling exhilarated and acting like she is in a cloud-nine." Teased by the spirit wolf of Louve.

"Harou, will you stop it? I just fulfilled my promise to you. Did I not tell you that I will enjoy the night without ruining it for both of us?" Clarified by Louve to her spirit wolf.

"Stop using me as your excuse, please! If I know it better, you enjoyed it yourself! See, it's not that bad to enjoy our time once in a while. At last, we are finally over with mercenary life and now we can just focus on getting to know our mate."

"I know Harou that you waited for this moment for a long time but please do not forget that we have to find my older brother first and find out about our origins which Helena mentioned before she died. We cannot completely forget our main objectives here." "You know our maker will do that for us army alpha has more potential than us and has a lot of resources at his disposal so rest assured you will find your older brother who left you on your own and prove to you that he is someone that we can rely on." "I really hope so, Harou."

"Anyways, did you not notice how handsome our mate is?"

"I must admit, I feel like drowning looking at his eyes which looked so gallant and stallion-like..."

Before Louve could finish her last statement, her spirit wolf interjected her statement.

"Excuse me! Stallion like? I do not mind the "Gallant" word but you are comparing our Perfect Mate's eyes to a cheap Stallion?" Interjected by Harou.

"Calm down! Stallions are not cheap. What I meant about stallion-like is the qualities behind it, the nobility and high spiritedness which was so vibrant in his eyes." Explained further by Louve to her spirit wolf who is reacting passionately from her previous statement.

"Then girl, say noble and high-spirited! Do not use cheap words and associate it with our mate. Our make is perfect! I could not ask for more in a mate because he has it all. He was so unbelievably perfect!"

"Stop patronizing him to match!" Reminder of Louve for Harou.

"Oh, keeping things to yourself and not being honest with your feelings will only do no good. It is the worst form of torture to yourself. Unlike me, I keep it simple and honest. No wonder you are always in a bad mood because you keep everything inside. Stop resisting what you truly feel about our mate. Just admit it that you are starting to like him too, personally."

There was a silence from Louve after Harou conveyed the hard truth on Louve.

Louve knew that her spirit wolf was only speaking the truth. She has been torturing herself by trying to resist her own feelings towards their mate.

A sudden thought started to bombard her mind.

"Is she really falling deeply already for their mate, Alpha Connor?"

"Can she let herself fall into the unknown?"

These thoughts would not let Louve rest. And with her spirit wolf who is still over-joyed from their secret date.

Meanwhile, in a large room of Dolf, his younger brother Blake is waiting for him on the couch.

Every room has soundproof on it which gives privacy to each room. The room of Dolf is located around the quarters of the Executive Officers' wing of the mansion.

There are specific wings or parts of the mansion that are assigned separately from the Executive Officers and staff members like Lady Alina.

While Blake is thinking about the statement of Oliver regarding his hidden feelings for Louve the entrance of his older brother could be heard.

"Hey, Dolf! What took you so long? What is the fuss about the preparation of the garden? Why does the Alpha Connor want to renovate and decorate the garden so much?" asked by Blake.

While Dolf was hanging his things to the cabinet he replied to his younger brother.

"It is just for the future guests of the Alpha." Reasoned out by Dolph to his younger brother.

"Okay!" Blake went back laying down on the couch.

The red-haired boy continued his contemplation regarding the words of Oliver. He was thinking about the conversation that they had earlier.

"Are you crushing on Louve? You like her, don't you?" A Sudden remark of Oliver towards Blake.

Blake got nervous and flustered.

"Nope! I am just asking because... I admire her as a remarkable person! Does it necessarily mean that a person would like someone just because they asked for their interests? Can't it be just a spur of curiosity?" Reason out by Blake to Oliver. "Hmmm... Admiration you mean? Spur of curiosity?"

"Yeah! Admiration! Spur of curiosity!" Exclaimed by Blake.

"I do not buy it! Your expression and heartbeat right now is proving to me completely that it is not just admiration... You have a crush on Louve!" Blatantly stated by Oliver. Blake pondered on his true feelings towards Louve.

Is it just plainly a crush or he has already fallen deeply for Louve?

The next day, before the bell rings signifying the start of the afternoon class, Oliver already went to his class but was pushed aside into a corner where no one could see him. "Hey, Blake! What is your problem?" said by Oliver.

"Don't worry, I am not going to hurt you!" Blake reassures Oliver.

"What do you want then?"

"I just want to talk with you, privately! You seem always to be tagging along with Louve like a tail. That is why I have to grab you like this in a corner just to get you alone." "I did not know my presence was so much needed. So, what do you want to know to talk about?" Blake became hesitant and his pride could not let him say the next words that he wanted to say. After a few seconds of silence, Oliver rolled his eyes and was about to leave Blake on his own. "I want you to help me be close with Louve." Sudden request of Blake out of nowhere. "What?!" Exclaimed by Oliver who was clearly surprised by the sudden request of Blake. The bell rang loudly, overpowering the voice of Oliver who was looking surprised.
