Chapter 6
Daniel walked straight to his sister and grabbed her by the arm, pulling her up out of her chair. "What were you thinking sending Kailie in there!"
"Daniel let go of my arm." She said pushing him away. "I knew she wanted to see you, so I just let her know that you were here. How was I suppose to know she was going to get out of bed and come in there. It's not like she interrupted anything." Raising an eyebrow. "Did she?"
"That's not the point Gladise." Looking around for Anya, he notice she wasn't in the front waiting area. "Where did she go?"
"She walked out front with the pup. She's fine."
Daniel could sense that she was close, but he could also sense that she wasn't out front. "She's not out front." He said as he stormed out the door.
Gladise didn't really care for humans, except this one. She hated this human. How dare she think she can come into this pack and think she could have her brother. What was her brother thinking. She wasn't even healthy for a human. Her brother was second in command. Not some lowly No-Ranked Were. There was no way she was going to let some sickly human mate her brother and have some sickly pups in their strong bloodline. There was just no way.
"Well that didn't go well." Kailie said coming up behind Gladise.
"Don't worry about the human, she's just a distraction for him. For now. She'll be out the way soon enough." Gladise promised.
Daniel walked out of the infirmary and followed her sent back to through flower garden. He moved quickly, worrying about her being out alone on the compound where any wolf could get ahold of her. He found her and Lucien rummaging through the basket where they left it.
"It's not safe for you to just walk off and around with out a chaperone."
"Yeah well I was hungry, and I have to eat after I take my insulin or I get worse. I didn't have time to wait until you and Little Mrs. Perfect finished making out." She said refusing to look at him.
"We weren't making out."
"Yeah what ever." She said as she opened a soda can she found in the basket.
He sat down next to her on the grass and took the basket. "Here let me get your food while I explain."
"There's no need to explain anything. Luna already told me that you both "kick it" every now and then. It's cool. What ever."
Daniel took a deep breath. He really didn't want to go a round with her stubbornness, so he opted to just explain anyway as he placed out food for him, her, and Lucien to eat. "Yes Kailie and I were never a couple of sorts. We were strictly sex-"
"I really DON'T want to hear about this, ok." She said trying to cut him off.
Daniel continued anyway. "You have to understand Were life."
"Yes I heard you all 'hunt' and 'hunt' often. Until you find a mate. Blah, blah, blah."
"Yes, we 'hunt', as you say, often. I myself, like to save my hunt for when I'm in the wild, in wolf from. Preferably a large deer to take down. So I don't 'hunt' like most Were do with the pack females. Not 'hunting' like most male Were can tend to confuse a female that you might be looking to settle down, maybe even mate them. I'm afraid Kailie was just a little confused."
Anya opened the food that was handed to her. It looked like it was a warm turkey sandwich with all the fixin's. She took a bite and was in heaven. She had never had a sandwich like this before in her life. She had to get the recipe. Focusing back on the conversation at hand. "So what your saying is she is just confused about you two that's why she is always half way in your lap rather than standing?"
"Yes, I guess." He said as he stuffed his mouth with his sandwich.
"Well you must do a hell of a job of confusing her." She said nervously, thinking about that bulge she saw earlier today. She was sure that could make any woman at a lost for what's real.
"Anya, are you feeling ok?"
"What? Huh, um yeah. I'm fine, sorry." Anya realized that she was lost in thought. "What did you just say?"
"I said that I told her that she was no longer a factor, she's just having a hard time accepting it."
"Looks like it."
"Anyway how is your sandwich?" He asked finally trying to change the subject.
Anya was glad for the conversation change. "Its great. I've never had a sandwich like this before. Much better than the turkey and mayo I'm used too."
"I'm sure Braxton will be thrilled you like it. He likes the change from red meat everything. He's also glad that someone will be happy to eat the vegetables he puts out."
"Well it's not as if he'll have to cook for me everyday. Finals are the day after tomorrow. So just one more day of studying and I'll be out of your hair. Thats even if Luna and Gregg work out what ever it is they needed to work out, and she comes out that room."
Daniel didn't like to think of her not being around. "I'm sure they'll work out what they need to."
"So what's the deal with them? I thought mates mate for life. The way Kailie made it seem they are on the verge of a break up. Can mates cheat? Is he cheating on her? Kailie said that he spends more time out of their bed then in it. What's the deal with that?"
"Whoa, slow down. You ask a lot of questions at once."
"Sorry, I'm used to wolves that can keep up. I forgot all muscle." She said poking his pecs with a laugh.
"Do you have a problem with my muscles." He said as he flexed a bicep.
