Chapter 113
Akira's POV
"Vida?" I gasped when I saw her punch the innocent boy, Roe did nothing, I understand Vida, she is thinking that my drink might be spiked, "stop hurting him he did nothing, I need help and he offered one." I said almost tearing, the pain in my body is aggravating once again.
"What did you mean he did nothing? Didn't he drug you?" She asked taking a step from Roe.
"I am burning and he was only helping, Wolfie left me," I said the last part with gritted teeth, it was then that Vida's lips dropped and my red wrist caught her attention, she raised her hand and covered her lips.
"What the fuck?" She cursed suddenly before she turned to Roe, "Bring her inside now." She growls at him. With the way she is acting one would have thought Vida is a wolf, she is growling like one of them.
"I think we should bring her to the..."
"No, I know how to stop this." Her voice was firm and husky
"You know?" I asked she nodded her head and reached for my bag, bringing out my phone.
"Are you calling the doctor?" Roe's voice was laced with worry and fear.
"No, Wolfie..."
"His number is not going through, and what does Wolfie have to do with this?" My pain was increasing and I was on the verge of dying.
"A lot..." She said moving from me, I watched her, scrolling through my phone, the first dial failed, probably, Wolfie hadn't switched on his phone, so it might still be unable to reach him and directing her to voicemail. I watched her sigh and scrolled again before she moved from me, taking two big strides to the other side of the room, I could see her but I couldn't hear what she was saying. I don't know who she was calling but her lips were moving, and then suddenly the pain stopped, I gasped looking at Vida.
That was fast, with the way the pain stopped it's like magic.
My eyes and Roe's eyes were fixed on her, "stop looking at me handsome," Roe lowered his eyes before he smirked running his fingers on his nape and then we heard her yell at the caller. "What the fuck is your business who I called handsome, Asshole?" I almost wanted to choke at the last part before she pulled the phone from her ear. She gave a forceful smile and walked to us. "Is the pain still there?" She asked checking on my wrist, I could see the mark was fading slowly, it was like I was never in pain.
"Wow, that was magical, are you some kind of magician?" Roe asked.
"You should as well call me a witch." Roe ran his fingers on his hair, still having that smug grin but fighting the urge not to look at Vida.
"Oh my bad, Roe, this is my friend Vida, and Vida, this is Roe, the old man I told you about, grandson."
"Oh, the one that said you look like his daughter?" Vida said falling on the couch.
"Yeah,"
"Oh nice to meet you and your face, sorry about it, I will get an ice."
"No it's fine," he said suddenly standing from the couch, like someone trying to escape something. "I have to go but are you two sure, you will be fine here?"
"Sure thanks, and please tell Grandpa, I am sorry I couldn't see him tonight?"
"It's fine, you could do that some other time or probably dinner by next weekend,"
"What?"
"Yeah, that is my contact, you could reach me or Grandpa with that and please let me have your contact as well."
"Oh..." That was all I said before I stretched out my number to him, he walked towards the door and then he turned around and his eyes were on Vida, I noticed he was looking at her again. If my hunch was right Roe is smitten with Vida.
"You can come with her, so I show Grandpa the girl that punched me if he asked while I had these bruises." Vida's eyes dilated in fear, she swallowed hard, I had never seen Vida this scared. She could be a hooligan but she is quick to withdraw into her shell when there is danger.
"Hey, I said sorry, right? I was only defending my friend, if you were in my shoes, you would do the same I was going to apply ice but you refused, why would you want to arrest me?"
"Easy, I didn't say that, fine, I apologized for the last part but please come with your friend so you could be my witness that I didn't deliberately drive Akira home without letting Grandpa see her." He said in a roll, Vida hadn't even agreed to go there with me before he pulled the door and left, Vida shut the door behind him when Roe walked out.
"You should go wash up while I make dinner." She said walking towards the kitchen.
I interrupted her, "What do you know about the pain? And who do you call? Please don't lie to me, does the pain link to Wolfie? Tell me, you seemed to know more about the Wolves?" She huffed before she sat close to me.
"Promise me, you won't jump to conclusions and you will listen till I am done explaining." I wanted to know, although a part of me, was scared of what her explanation would mean but I wanted to know so I could protect myself if it ever occurred again.
After much hesitation, I ended up nodding to her.
"I may, be wrong or right but the pain in your chest..." She paused biting her lower lips, "...and the mark on your wrist are sign of the unfaithfulness of your mate."
"Unfaithfulness? As in infidelity?" She nodded and I shook my head.
"No..." I pushed Vida's hand from me. "Does it mean Wolfie is sleeping with his fiancee?" Vida looked at me confused.
"Fiancee? I don't understand. Wolfie can't be with another female when he has branded you, if he had another female then you would always have that pain in your chest, whenever he meets with that woman."
"What? I will keep having this pain for the rest of my life if we both don't end up with each other?"
"Yeah, the pain would only stop if he rejected you."
"Reject me? I don't understand."
"Yes, if he rejects you and you accept the rejection, the mate mark on your neck would disappear and you two could be with anyone."
"So rejection is the only way I could..."
"Don't jump to that, probably he was drunk and he lost himself, he would never do that to you if he knew you would feel the pain. Maybe his drink was spiked."
"Was he the one you called?" I asked as tears were rolling down my eyes.
"No, the asshole assistance and he said Wolfie isn't home and his number was disconnected, so I pleaded that he reach him on his mind, and he said he had done that and everything will be fine and here you are, you are fine."
"Can an alpha have two mates?" I asked as my tears trailed down my cheeks, I didn't want to lose him, even if I was the other female, I didn't want to be rejected.
