My Sister-In-Law Is My Mate!?!

"How did he even lose his rationality to be injured this much? If I did not know any better, I would have thought he got crazy because of the rejection of his mate!"

He shook his head but was stunned when still no one replied. After giving the last antidote to the beast, he raised his head and stared at the face of others.

"Hey, didn't I tell you that he would be fine! Why are all of you looking like you have seen a ghost? Did something terrible happen?" but his question was only answered by the mocking silence that brought another frown on his face.

"Would anyone tell me what just happened?" This time his voice glowered a bit and Ronald sighed.

"You speak a lot! I have never thought you speak too much when I was training you!" the boy frowned as he looked at the beast who did not look a year older than him.

"Father! Do you always need to be so sarcastic when you meet me? Look at the other families in the pack?" He didn't know about other beasts, but wolves were known for their love and affection towards their families.

They could war, die and kill for their mates and cubs but look at his father! He treated him like he had taken him from the curb!

"How much time would it take to regain consciousness?" asked Hazel, finally raising her head and looking at Hermlin, who felt strange by looking at the concern of their Luna towards their beta.

But not thinking much to it, he replied in a soft voice, 

"His wounds had already started to heal. He will be awake in an hour. But you seem unwell too, shall I check you too?" he offered as he looked at the girl whose skin was looking deathly pale but she shook her head as she started staring at Alex again making him frown.

He turned to look at Richard who was staring into the open space while standing on the balcony. Even when Alex had started to heal, his body was looking stiff as if he was too much stressed.

There was something amiss around him. He turned to look at his father who sighed and shook his head as if telling him not to dwell on the matter for now.

"It had been so much time since we last met. Come with me so that we can have a drink together!" Ranold held the wrist of his son and dragged him out.

"But father, Alex needs me! He is still unconscious!" he tried to reason but Ranold just snorted!

"Did you not say that he would gain consciousness in an hour and is already healing? What else did he need you for? 

Still if things would not go as you said, Richard would mind linking you! Now come with me!" he did not hear the protests of his son anymore as he started to drag him out from there.

Once alone, Richard finally took a few deep breaths and tried to control his emotions and turned to look at the silent girl.

"Do you want to talk about what happened?" from her behavior, she knew that Alex was her mate before the incident happened. Then why did she not inform him and Alex. .what was he even thinking?

Was he thinking of sacrificing or hiding this fact? Did he not know that the mate bond could not be hidden? In the end, they both made him fool and now everyone would mock him!

"I do not know much either! I only met Alex twice. Once in our reception party and today in the ministry! 

I only felt strange when I met him and my thoughts only confirmed when he was injured. I only thought that it was just a simple attraction since he denied being a wolf when I confronted him!" 

As if sensing his ferocity and doubts, she told him everything from starting to end in detail without missing a single thing.

In the end, she bowed her head and deeply apologize to him,

"I know you are not a mistake in this whole matter. But nobody's responsible for it. I was always afraid of what would happen if your mate came one day suddenly but who would have thought that my mate would come knocking at the window!" 

Her voice was filled with pain and grief. She could feel what he was going through but at the same time she knew that they could not continue their relationship since everyone knew that she was Alex's mate now.

But she felt like she had come between the bonding of brothers! Maybe Alex had decided to sacrifice! He had asked something about mates when they met for the first time but he never raised the topic again even when he helped her unconditionally.

What if he did not want to be with her anymore? The thought made her heart clench so hard that she felt she was suffocating again.

Taking a deep breath, she shook her head again. She would not assume anything and wait for him to gain his consciousness and explain everything to them.

"What do you think now? Since Alex is here? Do you want to cancel the deal between us?" Why was he even asking that?

Isn't it already natural? Even if Alex would reject her now. She could not be with Alex's brother after knowing that she loved Alex!

Even if she did not know much about the bond of a mate, she could feel how much pain she was feeling when he was the one who was injured.

"If you do not know, Alex was the one who was chosen an Alpha! But due to his wandering nature, he did not want to take the responsibility. Therefore, he decided to be beta and roam around.

I can leave the position of alpha so that you both can be the leaders. I was only trying to be a responsible brother anyway.

I will be happy as long as you both are happy!"
