Alpha Niall And His Lost Mate

Chapter 27

Relief flooded me when I noticed that we were nearing the Alpha house. I was beyond exhausted, since I had no idea how I could run that far on only three hours of sleep.

Niall woke up at five this morning, waking me too in the process since I found myself laying on top of him. I protested against the idea, but he insisted that we should leave before sunrise, since we were still very close to Rogue Burg, and I knew none of us were ready to be in another fight.

We ran back in wolf form, completely hungry, tired and clothes-less. In all honesty, I couldn't wait to get home.

Valero left once we were at the border of Niall's pack, but we didn't exchange any verbal departure words, since we don't have a link with him. I did, however, make a mental note to call him and thank him again later.

As we neared the house, Asia and Jared emerged from the entrance with worried looks on their faces. I could tell that they were mindlinking Niall, but I just kept quiet since I only had a link to Niall.

We stopped once we were at the base of the steps that led to the door, and I watched as they communicated with focused looks on their faces.

If anyone should see the encounter, they would've thought that they were having a strange staring contest. Being on the receiving end of watching people mindlink for once, it made me realise how weird we really looked. No wonder we couldn't live with humans.

Asia's eyes momentarily darted to me for a second before she looked back to Niall, but they quickly found me again only a millisecond after, as she eyed my neck area with raised eyebrows and an 'o' shape forming on her lips.

At first, I got a tad defensive, thinking she was planning on shifting and biting into my neck to kill me, but I then noticed that she wasn't actually staring at my neck, but the chain around my neck.

It was my shifter's bracelet that Ciara gave to me on my 18th birthday. When I am in wolf form, instead of being destroyed like everything else, it transforms with me into a thin gold chain with the pendant still in place. I am yet to understand the 'magic' behind it, but if we could shift into large wolves, who am I to question a shifting bracelet?

She took two reluctant steps towards me as Niall and Jared continued their intense conversation. I didn't even know why I was waiting for him to end. It's not like I needed him to walk with me inside.

Her eyes flickered from my amber ones to the necklace, silently asking a question. I still didn't like her and very much didn't trust her, but I pushed the thought of her ripping it from around my neck to the back of my mind, as I gave her a short nod.

She twisted it between her fingers for a while, momentarily pulling at my fur as she gazed at it in amazement. I was shocked that she didn't look jealous, since that's her speciality.

"Is this a shifter's bracelet?" She asked, and I gave her another wolfy nod. This seemed to have sparked her interest even more as she eyed it. I cocked my head to the side in question, letting out a low bark in conversation.
