chapter 30
''E-Enzo?'' Venus stuttered, confused and baffled
the only response she got was heavy breathing, and he eyed her with a crazed look, he looked torn.
Venus knew he was on edge and anything she''d do would be a trigger from him and he would shift
head, worried for her mate but submitting to the sheer raw power he was emitting.
Venus was in utter shock, unable to decipher what had just happened,
''Enzo w-what?''
''mate,'' he muttered through clenched teeth, rage dripping from his tone as his hands fisted on the table
clenched even further, gently almost cautiously Venus ced her small hand over hisrge fisted one,
as the sparks from the mate bond came to life, calming down the raging lycan just a little, breathing in
deeply he clenched his eyes shut, and stayed still for a few seconds, the tremors his body was making
to suppress his lycan subsided and after a while he opened his eyes and raised calm blue green eyes
to Venus.
breathing a sigh of relief Venus hugged Dante tightly, wrapping her arms around his neck as he
hesitantly ced his arms around her waist.
''what happened?'' Venus asked, her voice weak from the unexpected turn of events
''nothing,'' he muttered with a dark expression on his face
and Venus didn''t push it further, she knew he was on edge and being persistent wouldn''t help, but she
would ask him tonight before they head to bed. Giving him a soft kiss on the cheek she patted his back
and quietly left the room while Dante was left alone, his dark thoughts consuming him, possibilities of
the worst hounding him and loneliness from what would happen if she found out creeping into him.
After joining everyone downstairs venus''s mood got a bit better, her overthinking stopping slightly as
the uplifting aura around her that her friends carried made her feel at ease. After a good while Dante
entered the living room, with a half asleep Abel in his arms, the sight of his tall 6''3 frame with pure
toned muscle hugged by his cks and dress shirt holding a little baby in his arms made Venus''s heart
m into her ribs, as a warm feeling blossomed in her chest making her feel all warm and fuzzy inside,
a bright smile creeping onto her face.
James saw the entire exchange and nudged Sophia who stopped her bantering and looked at the
scene in front of him, but what worried Sophia that James seemed to miss was the haunted look on
Dante''s face.
''he woke up when i was getting some stuff from our room,'' Dante informed in a deep rough voice.
Venus nodded, her tongue seemed limp of words as she took a half awake half asleep Abel from
dante''s arms, cooing to him as he giggled at her and nuzzled into her arms, the sight was one to make
a grown man coo.
''Dante i wan-,''
''Dante rogues caught at the south border, we have to go now,'' Gabriel said, cutting off Venus as the
room grew tense, Knox kissed Sophia and the baby bump longingly and the three left in tense hurry
without another word.
''be safe please, i love you,'' Venus mind-linked to her mate,
''i will,'' was all he mind-linked back,
at this point Venus''s worry escted to rm, she needed to talk to him as soon as possible and
demand for him to tell her what was going on.
Just like that it was nightfall, Venus with Sophia and James dropped Abel back at the pack house and
came back home to have dinner, it was past 11 now and the men still weren''t home, Sophia said she
couldn''t wait anymore and had to head back home, games said the same, that they would wait there
for their mates and then they left. Alone at home Venus sat in the kitchen after clearing up the table and
cleaning the dishes, she tried mind linking Dante a bunch of times but he hadn''t responded back,
Venus was about to call him when the main door opened and Dante walked through, his hair messy as
dark locks fell over his forehead, as if he had been running his fingers through them all day.
''Dante,'' Venus breathed and ran up to him and gave him a tight hug,
''i was so worried,'' she said, keeping her arms around him and giving him a kiss on the jaw,
Dante nodded and kissed her back on the forehead,
''what happened is everything okay?''
''yes we settled the rogue problem, they wont being back for a long while now,''
''did you chase them off orrrrr ....?''
''no we talked,''
''......,''
''what?''
Venus pped Dante lightly on the chest and giggled, ''i think everyone knows what your definition of
talking is,''
''well what can i say,'' he said, grinning at her and giving her a peck on the lips.
After a while when Dante had his dinner and they were preparing to go to bed, Venus mustered up her
courage and asked her mate the question that had been hounding her all day, a fact about Dante was
that he spoke very less and hated discussing one matter over and over again.
''baby?'' Venus called out, as Dante walked out of the bathroom only with a pair of sweats
''hmmm,''
''about earlier today ...,''
''what?''
''Dante stop acting oblivious you know exactly what I''m talking about, Enzoing out, how you''ve
been acting and avoiding me?'' Venus said frustrated
nothing but unsettling silence continued
''why are you like this?'' Venus asked
no answer
''why did you react like that?''
silence again
''DANTE TELL ME RIGHT NOW OR I SWEAR T-
''we cant have pups,''
his voice was so calm, so collected that Venus almost scoffed but the look, the haunted look on his
face told her otherwise.
''what,'' she breathed out in disbelief
''yes, we cant have pups,''
her heart started beating fast, she could hear the blood roaring in her ears and the wild thumping in her
chest, what did he mean they couldn''t have pups, he didn''t want kids? Venus thought as her mind went
crazy with a million gushing thoughts.
''you don''t want to have ki-''
''no Venus i do but you wont be able to give me pups,''
She could have sworn someone ripped her heart into two.
