Chương 9: Chapter 9
Jake's POV
After Celine lost consciousness Carl almost went wild. He took control instantly after Chloe informed me.We took her to the pack hospital. Her color was very pale and her lips were white making her look like she had lost a lot of blood.
But I wondered why, she was completely fine before I left for the Crust Pack.
"It's all your fault." Carl spoke up amidst the silence outside the ward.
"What does this have to do with me?"Chloe and I were seated in front of the ER waiting for Gaius, my pack doctor, to give a report of her condition.
"Hadn't you stayed away from Anabelle when I told you nothing will be wrong with my mate." Carl growled slowly.
Recalling the previous scenario it was after Anabelle and I had sex that Celine passed out damn the mate bond but I haven't even claimed her yet.
"Doesn't matter you caused her a lot of pain and her wolf too." I felt guilty hearing Carl's words.
"Can you just sit for a moment you're making me dizzy." Chloe was pacing around biting her finger in regret.
"How come you aren't bothered?" She stopped and came to sit beside me.
"Because." I shrugged and she shook her head at my nonchalant attitude.
But she was wrong. I was bothered if a thing like that could happen to her when we are not mated. What if a bigger incident happens? Will I be affected also?
"Alpha." Gaius came out and approached me.
"Anything?" Chloe asked.
"I'm sorry I couldn't diagnose her condition but she's fine now I administered pain relief to make the pain stop.
"Phew thank goodess." Chloe breathed a sigh of relief.
I thanked Gaius. I'm sure he couldn't tell why she was in that state because of the mate thing. And I'm glad he didn't find out the only ones who knows Celine and I are mates is just Celine and I.
"They deserve to have their own Luna. You are keeping them from what rightfully belongs to them." Carl reprimanded.
"Can I see her now? Does she need anything?" Chloe asked Gaius worriedly.
"I'm sorry but you can't, she's asleep." Gaius replied.
"Oh can I at least stay and watch her." Chloe pleaded.
I was shocked at how Chloe has been acting. I know she's caring and all but with Celine she's different.
"Yes you can." Gaius answered.
"Ohh thank you Gaius." Chloe smiled and Gaius summarized how she could help Celine and left us.
"So tell me." I asked her.
"Tell you what?" We were now going in to see Celine.
"You act as if you've known Celine all your life." I told her.
"Honestly Jake,I don't know how to explain this from the moment I saw her I just felt that I needed to be there for her,like to protect her you can't understand." She placed her hand on her heart.
She was feeling this way towards her because Celine's the Luna,pack members will always feel that way towards their Luna.
"Oh my." Chloe whispered as we entered the ward.
Celine was lying on the bed with some drips attached to her hand. She was looking lifeless.
"Move close to her,I need to feel her wolf." Carl showed up in my head.
"What not in front of Chloe!" I rejected.
"I don't know what nonsense thoughts you have in your head but it's not what you're thinking I'm not like you."
"I just need to feel her wolf so she can heal faster." He was getting angry.
"Uhm It's late already I'll watch over her." I told Chloe she had already sat down beside Celine's bed.
"Are you sure?" She looked at me not trusting any words that came out of my mouth.
"Yes I'm sure, now go home." I hope she gives in.
"Okay fine but please be good to her when she wakes up, remember she's also a member of the pack you have the duty to protect her." Chloe stood up and took one last look at Celine before leaving.
"That hit a nerve." I sighed and went to sit where Chloe sat.
I took her hands which were covered in the blanket and let Carl do his thing.
I wish there was another way but I needed someone strong, someone like Anabelle having a weak mate will be my doom and I don't want that to happen. I stared at the reflection of the moon that penetrated inside the room.
Celine had gotten better and was back to the pack. I felt at ease seeing her, but she was kind of cold and distant since she got back. I wondered if she knew I was the cause of it?
"Celine, why not join us for dinner?" Chloe said amidst dinner.
Celine had just come in to serve us Steel,Scott and Anabelle were also seated. Celine checked us all out. I'm pretty sure she wouldn't be comfortable eating with us.
"Let her be, I'm sure she still has things to do." I stressed the do part.
Celine was annoyed by my statement. I could tell judging by the way she looked at me I was only helping her to come out of the situation.
"Don't mind my brother he can be so uptight but he's actually bark but no bite." Chloe tried convincing her.
"You brother?" Celine seemed shocked that she didn't know who Chloe was.
After hearing that I was related to Chloe, Celine ran out of the dinning hall. What the hell was wrong with her?
"I wonder what's wrong with her." Chloe continued eating.
"Excuse me." Scott stood up and left us.
"How long is she going to be here?" Anabelle asked me.
"She just got here Belle." Steel frowned.
"What do you mean by that? She's a member of this pack and she'll be here as long as possible." Chloe and Anabelle don't see eye to eye.
"What you initiated her!" Belle slammed her hands on the table directing her questions at me.
"Manners young lady, you guys might be in a relationship but he is still your Alpha." Steel warned.
"Why would you initiate her, you don't even know what pack she's from,what if she's a threat you never can tell!" Anabelle stood up from her chair.
"You don't get to talk to me in that tone!" I growled at her.
Anabelle calmed down and sat down."I don't like the way she looks at you."
"How?" I dropped my spoon and I couldn't even eat in peace.
"She looks at you in a weird manner with so much hatred I can tell." Anabelle placed her palm on my hand.
"Huh you're one to talk." Chloe rolled her eyes.
"Please Jake I'm sure she's up to no good." Anabelle pleaded.
"Someone's feeling inferior." Chloe said.
"She's just a maid. You should mind your business and sort out your crappy relationship." Anabelle hissed.
Scott growled at Anabelle. I stood up in anger. I was done with dinner, Anabelle called me but I didn't spare her a glance.
I needed to find out Celine's identity Anabelle was right about that. I just need to "What's Going On Here!!" I growled loudly at my mate.
