Accepting My Twin Mates Chapter 67

Chapter 64 – Wanna Know?

Evgeniya

I clambered out of my window and wrapped my father in a hug. After 23 years of stolen time, and barely having him back for two days, I needed to leave him. And in a pack he clearly held no trust of or liked, no less.

My mouth worked, trying to find the right words and failing.

“I know,” he grasped my shoulders and looked me square in the eye. “Astennu has told me.”

I glanced around him to see my sweet goober, trying his absolute best to be cool and unaffected by his rut, and not listen in on the conversation with my father.

Evva snorted in raucous laughter, ‘he’s like a little pup trying to hide how much he wants to play with a new toy.’ Despite her amusement, she licked her lips as eager to play as I was.

Behind me, Lucy climbed out, following after, closing the window behind her and handing me my bag. My father’s gaze returned to her, the two disappearing into their own little world.

“D-dobroye utro,” she bit her lips together, looking sheepish under his scrutiny.

I didn’t know what she had said but my father repeated it back to her; it must’ve meant ‘good morning’. She had taken the time to learn something just for him. Goddess, she really was the cutest.

‘What?’ She pouted, when she caught my teasing smile. ‘I spent all last night and some of this morning trying to learn that.’

She stood back, allowing my father and me a moment. However, his eyes never left her, following each movement she made.

‘Dad?’ I grasped his elbow as the only way to draw his attention. ‘I really am happy that you’ve found her. Please look after her, and make sure you try her baking. Honestly, no one can cook like she can and she loves feeding people.’

‘I promise, with my life,’ he cupped my cheek. ‘Be sure not to harm your mates. We lycans can be… insatiable.’

I almost wanted to hide behind my hands, and my wolf’s shudder was so forceful, my own spine shook.

‘I’m begging you to stop! I’m about to internally haemorrhage from cringe.’

His chest gently rumbled with laughter as he grasped my face to kiss my forehead.

‘Do not feel pressure to be marked,’ he glanced to the side, trying and failing to hold back a frown in Astennu’s direction. ‘I marked your mother during heat and regretted. My memory blurs about it. I wished I had waited till I would have remembered.’

Accepting a mark, and giving it in return, didn’t hold the same kind of dread and intimidation as it used to. The idea of being Luna was still a little terrifying; I wasn’t exactly an ideal role model to anyone. But I was in a position where I could affect change in the pack, instead of sitting in the shadows and b***h about what could be done. What piqued me was that everyone would be expecting to see me marked and fully claimed after my heat, and I didn’t want to be marked just because it was expected.

‘Plus, you know how I hate behaving like an expectant and perfect little Luna,’ Evva piped up, full of her trademark sass. ‘They’ll gossip, but I would like a final f**k you to the hierarchy of the pack before we have to act all respectable.’

The sound of a vehicle approaching crunched and squelched as it rolled off-road on the part-frozen and thawed ground. I turned, seeing a black jeep pull up, driven by Badru.

“We ready to go? Snow is supposed to blow in soon up the mountain,” he hopped out, key in hand.

Despite the slight chill in the air, his skin glistened in sweat and a held-in wince coincided with a heated wave rippling through my abdomen. The last thing any of us needed was horny Alpha driving and growing distracted.

I snatched the keys that dangled from his hand and traded them for my bag, shoving it into his arms to keep them occupied so he couldn’t make a move to grab the keys back. “I’m driving.”
