Chapter 83
“I’m Dante. Dante Harrison.” the one driving introduced. .
“And I’m called Zyair Leoson.” the other pack warrior added.
Phoenix nodded and said: “Nice to meet you two. And I’m happy to join you guys for this trip.”
“Mr. Phoenix and Lavana… Did you know you guys missed a spectacular thing that occurred in the pack last night?” Dante asked.
“Um, what happened?” a curious Lavana asked.
“We were making preparations for the trip today last night and you know it was the full moon.”
“Yeah. but we no longer need to howl at the moon any longer.” Phoenix spoke invited.
“I didn’t say that’s what we did, Mr Phoenix.” Dante said in a displeased tone. “Learn to listen before replying.” he scolded, while Phoenix shook his head with a smile.
“I was right.”
“Right about what?” Dante asked with furrowed eyebrows.
“You have resentment toward me.” Phoenix pointed out.
“Ha! It’s not just me, the entire pack wasn’t happy with what you did yesterday, alright. But I know you took good care of your mate, seeing how she’s glowing.”
“Yeah, that’s my responsibility. If my mate doesn’t glow and leave other people’s mates in the dust, then I have woefully failed.”
Lavana facepalmed at hearing these words. This mate of hers really know how to make people maddened and want to beat him up. The frustrating thing to the two men is that none of them can beat him.
“Sullivan, please stop talking.” she telepathed to him.
“Just a minute, mate.” he replied in mind link and then continued. “So that matter aside, what spectacular thing happened last night?”
None of the unhappy men replied to him and Lavana decided to cool the tense situation.
“Haha. Don’t mind him. He doesn’t know how to talk. I’m still curious, but it’s okay if you don’t want to tell.”
“Hmph! I wonder why the moon goddess paired you two together, Lavana. You deserve better. He’s your first chance, mate, right? He’s not even handsome to begin with.” Dante complained.
“I’m right here. Repeat what you said and I’ll turn your mate into a widow. I bet she will only cry for a few minutes and go in search of a second-chance mate. I reckon that man will be a 100 times better than you.” Phoenix spat.
“It’s true. Lavana deserves better. You’re just an ugly man who deserves to be with a pig.” Dante countered.
“Great! Stop this vehicle. Let’s have a fight.” Phoenix suggested.
“Sullivan…” Lavana whispered in a low, distressed tone.
“Lavana, don’t try to stop me. This Dante is seeking a beating. How dare he say that?”
“Calm down, Mr Phoenix. This is not the best time to settle scores.” said Zyair.
“I will make your wife reject you if you speak out of line again.” Phoenix spat. The atmosphere turned tense.
“You? *scoff* Stop trying to make me laugh.” Dante said with amusement.
“Do it again if you dare. I’ll… hmph!” Lavana covered his mouth with her hand.
“For the last time, Phoenix. Stop talking. If you speak again, I will castrate you.” her face looked like she was ready to kill.
“Geez! Remove your hand. I’ve gotten the message.” he mind linked.
“Promise you won’t speak again until we arrive at the destination.”
“Um… Fine. Can I speak to you then?” he asked in mind link.
“Phoenix, take out your phone and do whatever you want with it. So long as you stop talking.” she replied.
“Nah. I’m not fond of phones. Have ever seen me with one since you met me?”
“Phoenix, can you at least not say words that make people angry? And you have to filter your words.”
“Tell that to Dante, too. His little head would have been ripped off his body if you weren’t here.”
Lavana sighed. “I might as well castrate you now.”
“I know you don’t have the courage.” Phoenix smiled.
“Zyair, Dante, please stop the vehicle!” Lavana requested loudly.
“Why?” Zyair asked, looking at her in confusion.
“Phoenix here wants to get down. He’ll meet us over there.” Lavana replied after dropping her hand.
“What? You want to abandon me?” Phoenix asked in shock.
“Not abandon. You just have to find your way to the venue.” she snapped.
Dante stopped the car and Lavana got out first. Then she walked to the other side to open the door for Phoenix.
“What’s the meaning of this, mate?”
“You can’t open your mouth without making people angry.”
“You know that’s clearly not true. My words can make you blush and make a tomato’s redness pale in comparison.”
“This is no time to say such a thing, Phoenix.”
“When can I say it then? On the wedding day?” he asked with a raised eyebrow.
“Dear mate, you’re just tagging along. We’ll make it without you, alright. So get off. If you don’t want to come alone, you can just go back.”
“Lavana, has anyone told you that you look cute when angry?”
“Phoenix, I’m not joking.”
Her mate simply folded his arms and crossed his legs. “I’m not getting out.”
“Good!” Lavana nodded. Her mate suddenly had a bad feeling. Before he knew it, she’d dragged him out of the jeep by his pants. She did that with her left hand. This shocked the other two guys. They’d always doubted why Rolandro and Mel chose to bring this Omega who hadn’t acknowledge herself publicly as a pack member yet, along for this vital trip. According to the information from Mel yesterday while they were searching for Lavana and Beatrix, this Phoenix was a Beta wolf. Now they see an Omega easily pull out a Beta wolf. Maybe he just allowed her since she’s his mate?
But his expression clearly showed he didn’t expect it. He was as shocked as them. But they were shocked for different reasons. Phoenix didn’t expect that Lavana would really pull him out. That goes to show how pissed she was. And her strength- it was no joke! Even though she didn’t use all her might, the strength was the equivalent of an Alpha’s. Yes, he knew she was stronger than 10 Alpha kings combined, but he thought it was only when in her majestic form.
If he were not an Alpha but a lower ranked wolf, he would have been flung away. This made him distressed. They were going to compete. He had no much issue controlling his strength but his mate… However, that could be talked about later when they arrive.
“Lavana, seriously!” he whined.
“You guys keep going. I’ll catch up with you guys.” Lavana said to the warriors.
“Nah. I can’t do that.” Dante shook his head and alighted from the vehicle.
Zair also did the same. He walked to the couple and suggested. “Lavana, how about this? We all switch seats.”Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
“I don’t agree.” Phoenix immediately objected.
“If that will get him to behave, then it’s fine.” Lavana headed to the front passenger seat and sat.
Zyair sat in the driver’s seat quickly. Now it was the back seat left that remained to be occupied. Dante sat in the back seat in the spot where Phoenix once sat and gestured for Phoenix to walk around and enter through the other door.
Phoenix had an angry look while Lavana stuck out her tongue at him.
“Sullivan, if you want to follow, you must behave. Don’t cause a ruckus every time you speak.”
“Girl, I’m unhappy.” he mindlinked.
“Well, I’m happy.” she made funny faces at him.
He sighed, shook his head and walked around to enter the jeep. Now he was seated with Dante, who was doing his best at holding back his laughter. “Serves you right, talkative.” he muttered.
“Dante, don’t you be joyous yet.” Phoenix said with a sulky face while fastening his seat belt.
“Um… Lavana, please fasten your seatbelt.” Zyair advised.
“Can you help me with that? Phoenix was the one who helped me do it last time.” Lavana pleaded.
“With all pleasure.” Zyair replied and was about to help her out.
“Hey, I’m here…” Phoenix spoke with a face full of jealousy.
“Shh!” Lavana cut him short. “He is not going to do a bad thing. It’s just helping me fasten the seat belt.”
“But…”
“Phoenix, stop talking already.” Dante chipped in.
