Hunter's Beta (mxm)

Chapter Eight

Dalia gives him a once over you scrunching up her face. But just turned and left the kitchen without another word. Having had enough of the childish bickering. She was tired after her meting not to mention channeling large amounts of energy can be tiresome.

She was just opening her door when Hunter's voice stopped her. "Where were you?" Looking over her shoulder she found him leaning casually against the wall opposite her room. "Well hello too you too babe I was looking for you. Can ask you the same thing." Hunter only cocks a brow at her. Dalia signs. "I went for a run ok." Pushing of the wall Hunter folds his arms staring at her intently. Dalia remained calm or so it appeared on the outside. When he finally spoke his tone was clipped. "Since my dad left yesterday no one is to leave the territory or go on runs without an escort." Dalia gritted her teeth at his gal. But remained silent bowing her head in submission.

Hunter releases a long breathe shaking his head at her. His tone changing to one of concern. "The rules are there for our protection Dalia. Security has been breached before and we're not taking chances don't go of alone again." He concluded. By the time he left Dalia was seething. How dare he play the concerned alpha? When he was just using her. She just about slammed her door shut. Her safety and the packs lame excuse. She knew better but for now she needed a shower and rest.

Alpha Xavier was one hour away from the pack fast approaching its borders. The visions if anything were confusing. He shared what he saw with Michael his Beta. The latter took everything rather calmly. But Xavier understood his lack of reaction as him seeing the bigger picture and the dept of what they were facing. His pack was once again in serious perilous danger. They had the biggest numbers but he knew almost everything was fallible to change sooner or later. Having witches as allies were far better than having them as enemies.

The current treaty among the supernatural has allowed longevity and somewhat peace. During the past they have lost greatly all sides included. His kind slaved under a tyrant, the witch hunts and the sire lines wars among the vampires. He dreaded approaching the Alliance.

Hunter was signing of on some paper work in his dad's office when his phone vibrated. "Hello." He answered closing a file then putting it way. "Hey its Alex." Hunter sat up at the familiar voice. "Hey man this is a surprise." Alex was another young alpha that trained with him at Pack Law. They weren't the only alphas there but they just got each other and became friends.
They were both extremely competitive by nature but motivated each other hence both expelling greatly. Both wanted to expand their horizons seeking something more than pack life and was genuinely interested in Pack Law. Not just coming to train here to became stronger and go back to their pack showing of their super training and stepping up as alphas of their packs. "Good one I hope or am I interrupting some alone time with your mate?"

Alex chuckles as he asked with fake sarcasm in his voice. "Actually no man was just finishing up some paper work." Hunter quipped grinning from ear to ear at the mention of his mate. He had to tell his friend."Well.." But he was cut of by Alex excited voice. "You cocky bastard, you found your mate?" He all but screamed. There was some shuffling and voices in the background an someone crumbling ...'were trying to work'... With Alex yelling about them moving to the rec room.

Followed by a curse then his friend's voice came through once again. "Awesome man congratulation. So let me guess she's blonde busty but not overly so with legs for days." Hunter had to laugh. "You just described Lizé." He deadpanned."Was worth a guess since you were seriously hitting that come on." Hunter grunted. "Don't know what your talking about man." Alex shook his head at his end. "Fine be that way." His friend could be so childish sometimes. "We were just close Alex nothing happened Hunter sounded exasperated. "Yeah tight so who is she?" Hunter took a deep breach before replying proudly. "Its Dewald." There was silent on the other end making him pull his phone away to check if the call was still connected. Then the silence was broken by a nervous laugh. "Man parents giving their girls the names of boys." Alex says signing.

Hunter wanted to face palm himself. Was it the shock or was his friend just slow. When Hunter signed into the phone. Realization must've struck Alex when he asked. "Omg you mean your Beta?" He asked his voice ending with a pitch. "The one and only." Footsteps were heard then a door opening and click of bottle cap. Hunter smiled at his friend dramatic behavior. "Sorry man I'm shocked didn't know you were even like that. He concluded. "I was just as shocked not mention nervous as hell. I found this amazing scent leading up to my room that seemed familiar but different and there he was. I just acted rejection was not even an option."

Alex smiled at the passion in with which his friend spoke about his mate. "From what you've told me he must be a great guy." Hunter stood up running a hand through his dark hair. "He is." He agreed glancing at the door. "Any way just wanted check on my best friend and to tell you I made the specialists team Tiberius made me sweat a bit but I'm in. "I told you, you had nothing to worry about and congratulation to you too."

He knew Alex would make a dam good specialist. "Was good good talking to you again Hunter see you soon buddy." After he ended the call patrol mind linked him about his fathers convoy approaching the gates. Just when he was about to leave the office his dad's voice boomed in his head. "Hunter you and Dewald meet me in my office. Shortly after Dewald made his way into the office looking worried. "Know whats this about?" He asks scratching the back of his head. "Nope no idea." Hunter says walking over coming to stand beside him. "Do you think he knows?" Dewald asked swaying from one foot to other. Hunter looked away guiltily before taking his mates hand in his. "Not yet but were gonna change that. He nodded determination etched into his features. They slowly inched closer and was about to kiss when the door opened and Elder Bennett walked in.
