Chapter 727: Perfect
[SHIFT BACK!] Torak mind-linked the two furious beasts. He used his Alpha's voice in order to subdue them.
In spite of the fact it was hard to do so, when on one side he had to face the same Alpha's blood as his and on the other side, was his supreme Beta, but Torak managed to do it.
[SHIFT BACK! NOW!] Torak roared, his voice dominated the two beasts' mind, even Calleb, who was standing in front of Raine and Hope, flinched because of the strong force.
Finally, after a long growl and a snarl, Kace and Raphael took over control of their beast and shifted back into their human skin.
Torak followed suit afterward, when the two men stood facing each other, glaring.
"What happened here?" Torak positioned himself between his brother and his Beta. "Why did the two of you wanted to kill each other all of a sudden?" Torak looked at Raphael, but his Beta ignored him, then he looked at his younger brother. "Kace?"
"Ask him!" Kace patted the dirt from his clothes. "He attacked me out of the blue!"
Torak frowned, that didn't sound like Raphael, the Beta that he knew, wouldn't attack anyone without a strong reason. "Raph?"
For a moment, Torak thought Raphael would turn into his beast again when his body started to tremble violently, but he closed his eyes and controlled himself.
On the other hand, Raine and Hope peeked from behind Calleb, the Gamma insisted for the two girls to stay as far away as they could from the three men in the yard.
No one could guarantee, when they would lose their control again and the two Lycans would have his head if something happened to their mates.
"Tell me what all of this commotion was about?" Torak asked calmly, but everyone knew he was nothing, but calm. The Alpha was only trying to be calm as much as possible so that he wouldn't make another scene in front of his mate.
"He touched my mate," Raphael said grimly.
Silence, pin-drop silence followed after Raphael answer, before Calleb chose to be the first person to break the tension.
"Your mate?" Calleb asked with a frown. "Who?"
Only then Torak realized that there was another person near him and when he turned around, all eyes were focused on Lana.
"Lana?" Hope was surprised to see her there, but then she gasped. "You are… his mate?"
Raphael groaned and marched straight toward Lana, he shoved Kace aside when he walked past him. "Come with me," he grabbed Lana's hand and both of them walked out of the house, leaving the five people speechless and shocked.
After a long moment of silence, Torak turned to face Kace. "You hugged his mate?" he narrowed his eyes at his brother.
"I don't know!" Kace threw his arms up while shaking his head. "I don't know if she is his mate. We have known each other for years! Do you think I will hug her with other thoughts in my head? I have a mate too!" Kace was agitated by the accusing look that Torak was giving him.
==============
"Stop!" Lana was screaming now as Raphael wouldn't even listen to her. This strange man had been dragging her for more than half an hour and he didn't look like he was going to stop any time soon. "Who are you? I don't even know you!" Lana swung her hand wildly, and she received many questioning looks from the people around them in return.
Finally Raphael stopped walking and turned around to face her. "I know you."
Lana swatted his hand and this time Raphael let her go. "Really?" she asked defiantly. She tried hard to hide her feelings.
Lana couldn't deny that she loved the spark between them, the tingling feeling that made her heart flutter and throw her mind into a mess. Was this how it felt whey you finally met your mate? It was… astonishingly wonderful.
Lana took a closer look at Raphael and felt that she was enthralled as she could hardly notice the passing-by people, who were looking toward their direction.
???You are Lana and you are my mate," Raphael said simply, but anger was laced in his tone.
Lana bit her lips when she heard her name on his lips. However, what Raphael said next, put her in shame.
"And I found you in another man arms in our first meeting." Raphael gritted his teeth.
At the same time, two men approached them upon seeing how Lana lowered her head in front of this furious man.
"Lana, are you all right? Is this guy bothering you?" He was one of the people from this village and they had known Lana for quite some time now, although she was often going to another city, but they remembered her as one of the teachers at the only school in this village.
"Scram." Raphael growled dangerously, he glowered at the two men with his dark eyes and watched closely as they slightly took a step back in fear. However, Lana touched his hand and smiled faintly at the man who asked her.
"It's okay. I am all right, we are just having an argumentation, but everything is fine," Lana tried to explain the situation to them.
"But, you said you don't know him." The other guy chimed in, but his eyes locked onto Raphael's warily.
"No, no." Lana waved her left hand awkwardly, yet she didn't let go of Raphael and this managed to please him. "There is a small misunderstanding."
After talking a few more things with them and ensuring the two men that she was fine, they walked away and left the couple.
During the entire conversation, Raphael didn't say a word, his eyes were focused on his mate's face. He loved hearing her voice and her sweet scent was doing things to him. Or, it was the way she talked to them and moved her hand to emphasize her words.
Lana had short hair that only reached her shoulders. At first, Raphael thought he would like a woman with long hair and imagined that Lana's hair would be longer when he got to know her name first, but now… he thought she was perfect.
