Chapter 19 Tate

• I stood to the side and discreetly observed as Violet got herself dressed again. Taking in the curves of her body as she covered them back up with her clothes. Odyn, my wolf, had been loving having time with her, though was getting grumpy as he wanted to mark her. Completely disregarding the fact she had yet to shift, and didn’t even have her wolf yet, let alone know we were her mate.
• I had been having an internal dispute with him, at the same time as trying to chat with Violet, which was far from being an easy thing to do. Sharing headspace with a grumpy bastard of a wolf who thinks he has the right of control and the right to dictate what goes on can be sheer hell. Especially when he is on edge. In the end, I had to push him back so I could barely feel him. No doubt I would regret it later, but I could not risk him pushing forward and taking control and trying anything with Violet, especially not trying to mark her.
• It would terrify the poor girl. She saw me as a friend and nothing more right now. At times I am unsure if she even thinks of me as that. I think she just considers me the annoying Beta bloke at the pack she has been dumped in too. So me jumping on her would be confusing enough, let alone having to explain the real reason why it had happened. In the end pushing Odyn back had seemed like the safer option, even if it meant it pissed him off and I suffered for it later.
