"This guy desperately needs a bath..." Aire commented as she stared at the sleeping man from head to toe. He had a thick beard and mustache and he really stunk.
Lyne chuckled, "And you are always curious about everything. I told you, you don’t need to come with me since he’s wearing a very powerful bracelet that would prevent him from shapeshifting or hurting me. I can perfectly take good care of myself."
Aire insisted on coming inside with her saying she could also protect her if the werewolf they caught went rogue.
"I know, Aunty, but I’m also curious about how he looks like now. Ah, but he’s handsome when he got cleaned up, aunty Lyne. He won’t be a bad match for you. You will surely like him in the end," Aire added.
"Oh my! You little cupid! Levi and Mia already complained with how you’re always playing cupid with Boss and Tyrone, Mia and Levi... And now you’re adding me to your list?!" Lyne burst at Aire in disbelief.
Aire only giggled and whispered, "Quiet, Aunty. You’ll wake your mate. Now, he won’t let you out of his sight."
"What the heck," Lyne mumbled, utterly stunned with the nonsense Aire was mumbling right now.
Borris suddenly jolted up on the bed. First thing he thought to do was to shapeshift and escape, knowing he was held captive by the Bloody-Eyed Hunter. Then, he remembered the man with her and his blood boiled in fury.
"Ahhh!" he screamed when his body felt an excruciating pain. It was the worst feeling he had felt in his entire life!
"You will only hurt yourself, so don’t try to shapeshift or else you might end up dying," Lyne commented.
Boris glared at the direction of the voice, and saw a woman with a little girl standing in front of him.
His glare softened, a frown replacing it as he stood up. He sniffed the area like a dog, moving towards Lyne.
"Don’t move, Aunty. He won’t hurt us," Aire whispered.
"I know because I have his life line..." Lyne mumbled. The bracelet Boris wore had a voice recognition command. And her voice was registered in it as well.
Boris sniffed hard, his eyes widening as he sniffed Lyne from head to toe.
"This is embarrassing," Lyne annoyingly mumbled. She clearly took a bath and did not smell.
When Boris was almost an inch away from her bossom, Lyne commanded, "Stop!"
Boris didn’t stop, and he once again felt a jolt of pain that made him fall on his knees on the floor.
"What is this!? What are you doing to me!?" Boris barked.
"You need to behave, Boris. Any attempt to escape, attack, or even shift will give you pain one after the other. So please sit obediently and take your breakfast quietly," Lyne instructed as she sat on the table with Aire.
Boris stared at her, and she signaled him to sit on the chair opposite of hers.
"What’s your name, lady?" Boris asked as he sat on the chair.
"I am Lyne, Deputy Squad Leader of the Moonlight Squad."
Boris scoffed and showed the disgust in his face upon hearing the Moonlight Squad.
"Bloody Hunters! You should name your squad after your Boss! Bloody Squad!" Boris mocked, his expression softening as he gave a lustful glance to Lyne and whispered, "But I guess, being a captive like this has its advantage. I got to meet my mate!"
Lyne’s face paled as she turned to look at Aire, who only gave her a shrug and an ’I told you so’ expression.
She was well-versed with werewolves, so she basically knew what Boris meant with the word ’mate!’ She knew how werewolves also preyed on some humans, making them their mate and turning them into one of them with their marking.
"No!" Lyne unconsciously gasped in horror.
"Oh yes! Just wait till I manage to get out of here because I will definitely bring you with me and we’ll make a lot of cubs in the future!" Boris excitedly exclaimed, making Aire chuckle.
"Oh, Aunty is very old-fashioned, Uncle Boris. Don’t scare her like that or it will take you a long time wooing her!" Aire amusingly interrupted.
Lyne gave Aire a glare, the little girly quickly giving her Aunty a ’hushed lips’ sign.
"Go and eat your food. I will ask another squad member to question you," Lyne weakly said as she stood up.
She felt her knees weaken. There was no way she would end up with a mutant. She would definitely kill Boris herself as soon as the Boss was finished dealing with the werewolf!
"Come back soon, mate! I won’t talk unless it’s you who’ll ask me!" Boris shouted at Lyne who walked out of the room, totally zoned out.
Aire shook her head and commented, "Good luck, Uncle. This will be fun to watch..."
Boris frowned, "Hey, you little pup! Do I know you, huh? Why are you talking casually to me? Do we know each other, huh?!"
Aire stood up and gave Boris a cheeky grin, "Don’t we know each other now, rascal Uncle? I’m Aire... Ah, doesn’t that name sound familiar to you. Anyway, I’ll leave now and let you enjoy your meal. By the way, Aunty Lyne cooked that herself, so make sure you finish it all if you want her to feel good."
Dumbfounded, Boris stared at the little girl who just winked at him before walking out of the room.
"I feel weird. Why do I feel that the kid knows me well?" he murmured with a conflicted expression. "Aire..." he whispered, his lips suddenly curving into a devious grin as he sniffed the air inside. The smell of his mate still lingered around the room, and he could not wait to get a hold of her!
"Wait for me, my mate. I will definitely mark you soon!" he excitedly exclaimed, before he started eating the meals prepared on the table. His face soured because it did not taste so well but he continued eating the edible food his mate cooked for him.
