My Destined Werewolf Mate - Chapter 191
THUD!
Hearing the sudden noise behind them near the colossal entrance of the resort, in the flick of a second Eva shifted her gaze back turning around her neck. Her motion halted, she frowned her eyebrows and continued peering at the way steadily.
To her surprise, Lady Olie was missing at that scene! She was about to follow them from behind but in the jolt of a second, she disappeared nowhere to be seen as she was impertinently swirling her glances all around.
“Eva? What happened?” Zeus was quick to notice her perplexing behavior and probed her softly, caressing her gripped arm.
“Zeus? Did you hear a noise?” Her glance was still fixed towards the way out.
“Noise?”
“I…I don’t know…but…it seemed I heard of something. And…where is Lady Olie? She was about to follow us inside, right?” Her voice sounded a bit shaky as if she was anxious over an issue that arose out of blue.
Apprehending her query, Zeus curiously glanced all around the way out frowning his brows. Indeed, Lady Olie was missing from there where she was standing a few moments ago.
“Maybe…she had some other works pending before she came to greet us,” politely he replied.
His answer didn’t seem much reliable to her due to several cynical doubts crowding her mind. Her life had been quite a ride due to all the traumatizing events she had been encountering which had further made her suspicious of every little inconvenience. Fidgeting on her own, she gulped her saliva and stared intensely at him lifting her chin up.
“Zeus… is she a wolf too?” She quivered anxiously.
For a moment, Zeus stood still glancing at her dubious expression with his narrowed gaze. Taking a deep sigh out, he gripped her hand tighter and with his other arm, touched the right surface of her face before responding to her. “Are you worried that I have brought you here among wolves?”
“No…I just…”
“Eva, you remember what I told you earlier, right?” His eyes seemed a bit glum as he whispered tenderly holding her arm tight. “So much stuff has already happened to both of us…I just…want to spend some peaceful moments with you here without any interruption or commotion. That’s the reason, I brought you here so far from Rione Monti. And…she is a human, just like you. Besides, none of the workers here are wolves so you don’t have to be scared of anyone…okay?”
Though he tried to act all firm and calm before her, she could easily notice his deep concerns evident for her. Clasping his palm, she nodded her head before answering him back, “Zeus…it’s not that…I am unable to survive with wolves around me. As long as you are holding my hand, I can go through anything.
But…I just wanna halt for a moment. I am exhausted of all the sufferings we had to bear… You are all I have… So, I just…want to live a happy life with you, that’s all I wish for. And…that’s the only reason I feel so anxious with the slightest issues.”
“I believe…nothing bad won’t happen to us till we are here, Eva. These are all my trustworthy people. And besides, I am here with you, right by your side.” Placing a soft peck on her forehead, his soothing voice tried to dissolve the immense worriments she was striving inside.
“Master?”
Apprehending the sudden deep sonorous pitch behind them, they sneaked a quick glance in the direction. A tall, old, masculine well-dressed butler, seeming to be around the same age as Olie greeted them with a polite simper on his face. His eyes were gleaming in happiness as he was ogling at both of them.
“Mr. Graham, are you doing well?” Immediately, a wide smile appeared on Zeus’s face as he turned his face around, glanced at him clasping her hand tightly.
“Yes, master. But above everything, I am relieved to see you being finally completed with your partner. You seem really happy now, master. I wanted to see you like this for a long time.” He grinned jovially, bowing his head respectfully before him.
Eva seemed a bit confused with the ongoing blissful conversation between them but she waited patiently before Zeus introduced her to that person. Holding her shoulder with his broad arm, he told her in a meek voice, “Eva, he is Mr. Graham our senior butler here and also, the husband of Lady Olie. Both of them are working here for almost 30 years.”
“Hehe, a pleasure to meet you, ma’am. Well, we were quite young when we started working here but now…we have become an old couple. But strangely, our Master has been always the exact same we saw him since the first day. It feels that perhaps he has stopped aging, hehe.” He towed his head politely before her mumbling quite cordially.
Hearing his unexpected answer, Eva noticed a dark expression occupied on his face while he lowered his eyes down for a second. It seemed as if the realization that he has been always drastically different from humans when it comes to aging, strength or any other capabilities was tormenting him mentally, especially when she was standing right next to him.
Gripping his arm tightly, she bowed her head to offer her cordial greetings to that old butler. Holding a small smile carved on her plump rosy lips, she murmured to him, “even if he can’t age or even if he is way different from others…my love for him will be just the same.”
Hearing her affirmed response, Zeus slowly uplifted his eyes up from the ground and glanced at her in awe for a while. She could easily read his anticipations without even conversing and that’s what startled him the most. Perhaps, that’s what soulmates are meant for!
“I am so pleased to hear that, ma’am. I wish…both of you stay together forever happier than ever.” With a small bright simper on his face, he glanced at both of them who were ogling at each other fondly. “Well, I have prepared both of your rooms upstairs, master. Please follow me –”
“That’s fine Mr. Graham, I can take Eva there. You can go now.” A bold sincere smile appeared on his face as he held her arm tight before walking upright through the staircase. Eva was obediently following him from behind looking all pleased to see him being happy again.
.
As both of them disappeared right from his sight, Graham slowly turned behind to head towards the kitchen. But his feet halted as he swirled his eyeballs watching Olie anxiously walking inside the resort looking a bit perplexed.
“Olie?”
Hearing his sudden loud call, she flinched hard for a second and took a heavy sigh out pausing her pace. Frowning his face, he almost rushed towards her who seemed trying to smile at him.
“Olie, where have you been? You just welcomed them from outside, right? Then what took you so long to come inside?” He probed her with many questions at once.
“Now who is this old fart? Why is he asking me so many questions? I guess, he must be her husband…or something…” Gulping her saliva, Meghan wondered with a fretful face while she had completely possessed Olie’s human body after killing her off.
“Olie?”
“Well…I was just taking a walk outside… The air feels quite fresh here…” Nervously faking a small chuckle, she uttered out fidgeting her fingertips.
“What? There have been so many works pending here… Master has come here after such a long time with his ladylove, we have to make sure every arrangement remains perfect… But how can you waste your time by roaming outside like that?” His irked voice sounded a bit gruff as he charged her.
“I…I am sorry…honey,” squirming perplexedly, she tried to put a wide smile on her face before rustling.
Apprehending her soft plea, for a few seconds, Graham stood still gawking at her face intensely. “Honey? But… Olie never liked to come up with any nicknames… Today why is she all of a sudden calling me honey?” He wondered while scanning her from head to toe with a sharp gaze.
“Olie…is it my mistake or do you really seem a bit young today? And…why are you wearing your wedding ring on your right arm?” Furrowing his thick black eyebrows, he tossed a blunt query.
Immediately looking a bit panicked at his interrogation, she took off the ring from her right arm before putting it anxiously on her left ring finger. She nervously chuckled again before reciprocating him back in a considerate voice, “haha, darling, what’s wrong with you? Why are asking me so many questions today? I…I wore it in the wrong arm by mistake…haha, don’t fret. I…I will head to the kitchen right now. It’s getting late…” Blurting out quickly, she almost tried to dash away from him tapping her bold footsteps ahead.
“This old fart will gonna cause trouble for me here…damn…I must do something about him!” She wondered inside.
“I am sure…there must be something wrong with my Olie today…” He muttered inside his mind watching her leaving from behind silently.
