The Mighty She-wolf of King novel Chapter 45

"Can I come in," she really didn't want to. She didn't have pants on but it wouldn't have been the first time that Seth saw her in less. She let him in and walked back to the coffee pot, pouring herself a cup, "Did something happen," she asked him with her back towards him. Could Seth smell Eric on her? Did he know? She should have taken a shower before heading downstairs, but would a shower even erase the sent of that man who slept peacefully upstairs. He marked her multiple times with his sent inside her it wouldn't take long for someone to know that she broke a few rules. The biggest one was not mated until during the Hunt. A rule she broke. And a rule that probably doesn't apply to a girl who will be gone soon.

"Blake," she could hear the confusion in his tone. The hurt and betrayal. Hearing his voice pained her. "Did you... I mean... sleep with someone."

Blake slowly turned around, almost afraid of what she was about to find. Afraid to see hate and disgust and that is what she saw. So she did what she thought was best and cover her shame with an icy gaze. "Who I spend my nights with doesn't concern you. That's not why you are here today."

"What the hell do you mean none of my concern. By the moon, you are my future Luna. Your Mine."

"You know that is not the truth Seth. I told you time and again that I was not your mate."

"And I told you that I would reject her and be with you! You're the one I love and yet you,"

"Don't you dare Seth," Blake growled feeling the little hairs on her back stand. She was about to lose her mind. "I told you it was never going to happen."

"Oh but you will sleep with anyone, am I right?"

"Blake? Is this true? Are you his mate?"

She just stood there, glaring at her broken cup, shaking. So Eric rested his hand on her shoulder to comfort her in some way. She slowly nodded her head before lifting it up and with a shaky voice, she lifted her head and Eric saw her tear for the first time. Anger boiled in him so fast he bared his teeth and growled, looking at the other man. "Yes," she spoke softly, nearly ripping Eric's on heart out. "Seth, I didn't want to hurt you. I knew how much it would have hurt you but I just couldn't. I didn't know how too."

Eric could see that Alpha Seth was trigger by her tears as much as he as. It made him think that his mate rarely cried in from of anyone.

"I understand," was all Alpha Seth could say. Both Eric and Blake knew Seth couldn't do anything or say anything because, in his eyes, Blake and Eric had accepted as each other's mate. It would have been different if Blake would have rejected Eric but she didn't. She did say they were not mates like she had said many times before. Did she accept him? "I came to tell you that rouge spoke this morning but there are things he is not telling us. I was hoping you could see if you can get any information that is needed." Blake quickly nodded her head, not looking at childhood and in the eye.
