The Further Alpha's Shy Girl novel Chapter 29

"What, again? You got to fix that. But I will leave now, have fun."

She said before she gave me a quick kiss and left the office. As soon as the door closed behind her, I looked at Lucas.

"Okay, tell me, what's going on?"

I asked, I saw how Lucas got a despairing look on his face before he took a step back and create more distance between us.

"You must promise me not to go crazy, there must be a logical explanation for this."

He said, prompting me to clench my teeth together, I knew I wouldn't like what he had to say.

"Come on, just spit it out."

I said annoyed, and then saw how Lucas took a deep breath before he slowly said.

"You know I told you and Ronny that I had got the scent of my mate right? ... When I came here I could smell it again, but couldn't locate where the smell came from. But now when there was a knock at the door, the scent came back ... and YOUR mate entered. You must understand how confusing this is, I'm NOT trying to take your mate from you, you have to know that. But she had the scent that I have spent 4 months trying to find the owner of ... "

I felt anger burst forth, and I rushed forward and grabbed him and yelled.

"Are you telling me that you believe that MY mate is YOURS? You have to be fucking kidding me. "

Matthew's P.O.V

Lucas stared at me with worried eyes.

Lucas nodded with a small smile.

"No, I absolutely agree. You have no idea how relieved I was when I didn't feel anything when I shake Clarinas hand. When she had the scent with her, I was worried for a while, I mean, I already knew what she was for you, yet she had the scent that has haunted me for months."

This time it was my turn to nod. I could well imagine his feelings, if it had been reversed, I had really been worried at the thought of falling for my best friends mate. I was really proud of my best friend, despite the fact that he had got the scent of his mate, he had still been observant enough to understand that Clarina was my mate, and therefore there had to be another explanation for the scent hung at her.

"I just don't understand completely, you say you've had the scent of your mate in 4 months, but Clarina have not even been here a month yet, so how can it be that she suddenly carries the scent?"

I asked and looked a bit confused at him. Lucas frowned.

"I'm also trying to figure that out, when I first get the scent of my mate, it was at the school, you might say I went on the hunt to find her. First of all my colleagues, since I was hoping it was one of them, as it would make it a lot easier, but unfortunately it wasn't any of them. When I realized it had to be a student, I had to spend some time to come to terms with it. I am a teacher at the school, and to have a relationship with a student is not reputable. But I realized that no matter what problems it would lead, it would mean nothing, once I was with my mate. I then went in search of her among the students, but again without success. And now your mate suddenly has her scent? I end up being insane before I find my mate. "
