Michael's POV

I sighed when I heard the door being closed and my angel walking away. I just hoped he wasn't mad that I didn't tell him about my cousin and his mate. I just thought if his best friend needed him, he would have called him, right? I groaned frustrated about everything. This early morning wasn't going well like I would have liked it to go.

"I'm going to see Kacy when the sun rises and it will rise in a few hours." My angel said and I looked at him in horror. He can't be thinking of leaving now, I thought he said tomorrow.

"Can we please talk about this?" I asked politely, I had to somehow make him stay.

"No, we will not talk about it. I decided and you should just accept it." He smiled and took out a bag, and then the packing started.

"Angel, you can't leave now. You are pregnant and so many things could happen. We don't know yet where the other coven is. You can be in danger." I tried to reason with him just so maybe he could stay.

"I'll be fine Michael. I will have my guardians with me. You can even add the number of warriors following me." He said in a sweet cute voice and still smiling cutely. I couldn't believe he was pulling that face on me in this kind of situation. I looked away so that I shouldn't give in.

"Angel," I started but he cut me off.

"Damn Michael! Will you stop nagging me already? I'm going whether you like it or not, so stop trying to make me not to go. You are starting to annoy the shit out of me!" He yelled.

The words he said broke my heart. I was only trying to look out for my mate and he called that nagging and annoying. I wanted to look at him but then stopped myself. What if he had a disgusting face showing just how much I annoyed him? I would never forget if I saw anything like that. So I slowly made my way out of the room, almost.

"Oh goodness! Mike, sweetie, I didn't mean all that." He hugged me from behind halting my steps. "I'm sorry! I-I just...." He cried, hugging me tightly to him.

I didn't know what to say, so I stood there and let him hold me like that. But I was still hurt by what he said. He just shouted at me minutes ago but then he says he didn't mean it. For him to shout it means he thought of it first. He thought I was annoying and that hurt. I placed my hands on his that were around my stomach, and plied them off me. I turned around to him, still not having the courage to look at him, and whispered in a shaky voice.

"It's okay, but I need go for a run right now." I said that and then left the room, despite his loud cries, I walked down the stairs. Letting my wolf out was the best idea at the moment. I needed to get my mind straight and stop thinking about how I annoyed my mate.

I didn't bother removing my clothes when I got outside. I just let the change take over my body, not even minding the slight pain that comes with my bones breaking and forming another creature. I took off in a run towards the forest. I blocked all link connections so that no one should contact me. I liked to keep to myself when I was in this mood. It helps me get over whatever had riled me fast.

I stopped after running for a while and I managed to hunt some deer but I wasn't in the mood to eat it. I sent an order to two of my warriors to take the deer and deliver it at the Ronald family. The family only consisted of three; fourteen, thirteen and ten year old children. Their parents had been killed by rogues five years ago. It was rare for rogues to come in our territory but they sometimes became a problem. So since the death of the parents, I had someone to look after them and I provide their needs.

When the warriors came and left, I started the run home. I really loved it when I'm in wolf form though it is not frequently but I change when I can. The sun was now rising and I remembered my mate saying he had to leave after sunrise. I added my speed so that I could make it in time to see my mate off. I reached the backyard and was surprised to see Theo with some clothes in his hands. He threw them to me when I neared and he turned around to give me some privacy to put on the clothes.

"Good morning son, you-"

"What the hell dad?" He cut me off and surprised me more with how angry he looked at me. I tried to think of something that I might have done to make him mad but nothing came out.

"What did I do?" I sighed and opted to just ask what I did wrong.

"Everything!" He exclaimed and I raised questioning brow. "Seriously dad," he sighed and ran a hand threw his hair. "What happened between you and Cad?"

"What? Nothing." I dismissed it hastily and passed by him to the house, well tried to.

"Dad, please talk to me." He held my arm and said in a small voice. I sighed and looked at his pleading eyes then I decided to just tell him. I told him many staff anyway since he's the one I've been most with. So I told him what happened after we sat down on some rocks in the backyard.

"You were both wrong." He said after some silence.

"How was I wrong? I was just trying to protect him and he called me annoying." I grumbled.

"You guys could have just talked it out and come to some agreement. He was wrong for not letting you speak out your worries and call you annoying. But dad you were wrong too." I looked at him when he paused. "Your mate was crying and you walked out on him. You should have stayed with him and express how you felt about everything but not leaving. That was wrong." He explained and I thought about it.

"But I was hurt," I started.

"And you will be hurt so many times in future too. Having a mate doesn't mean you don't get hurt or you don't hurt them. Where there is love, hurt is also there. You just have to make it that you don't get hurt or that you don't hurt them. I know you've been alone for a long time and have no experience in what happens with mated couples. I don't know too since I don't have a mate yet but I think communicating is the best way for a start. Try communicating and let things go from there. You have to express yourself and make sure you try to know who your mate is and let them know you." He said and I understood.

"Who died and made you the love guru?" We both chuckled and I pulled my son in a hug.

I paused when I smelled the scent of the witch, Alec, on him. I pushed that aside deciding to ask later and ran to the house. I hastily climbed up the stairs and threw open the door to our room. My mate was curled on the bed, facing away from the door. I heard him whimper and I knew he was awake. I closed the door and walk to the bed. I sat down beside him and debated whether I should turn him around to face me or not.

"Cadmael," I called his name and he suddenly turned around and threw himself at me. If I wasn't strong I would have fallen over but I held my mate tightly to me.

"I'm so sorry; please don't be mad at me!" He cried and I hugged him tightly and comforted him. He cried for a bit but he came to quit down.

"I'm not mad at you angel. I'm sorry I left and made you think that way." I whispered to him.

"No!" He shouted and I moved him so I could see his face. Before I asked why, he started explaining.

"I'm the one to say sorry, I was wrong and selfish. I only thought about myself when I insisted to leave. I should have listened to you and I agree with you."

"About what?" I asked now lost.

"I will not go to Kacy. It's dangerous out there and I should think about the baby's safety first before anything." He said and I sighed. This was not what I wanted him to do.

"Angel, you are going to see your best friend and I'm not stopping you. Friends have to be there for each other when they're in need. I was wrong by thinking of making you stay."

"But,-"

"No, angel. You should go and don't worry about me. I will survive until you come back. I will pack for you and you should get ready." I kissed him on the forehead and stood up with him. He wanted to protest but I gave him a look and he hugged me saying 'thank you' and ran to the bathroom to get ready.

I sighed and started packing for my angel. I didn't know how long he would be gone but for my sake I hoped it took him just two days. That was more than enough to be with a friend, I hoped. I finished packing the bags then decided to phone Elijah and let him know of my mate coming over.

'Hello,' he answered on the first ring but his voice didn't sound right.

"What's wrong?" I asked worriedly.

'Nothing I can't handle, don't worry. What is it? You surely didn't just call to check on me.'

"What do you mean by that, pup? I'm hurt, so hurt." I said dramatically and he sighed making me switch back to seriousness. "It's that bad huh?" I asked since it's rare for him to not respond to my playful words. "Anyway, I'm calling to let you know that my mate is coming there today. And before you ask, I didn't tell him anything." I said and he chuckled.

'Silly, I know you wouldn't tell him and I'm glad to know he's coming. My mate needs some friends at the moment and Cad is the best idea.'

"Not just Cad though. Theo and their two friends who are witches are coming too." I told him to which he said no to have the witches go and I had to convince him to let them come. I haven't told him fully about Theo's mother so it was quiet the job to convince him and he accepted. I guess I should tell him all about it, maybe these coming days.

I ended the call and planned to make breakfast for my mate and son. They were travelling and I just felt like doing it today. I walked in the kitchen and prepared the food. Neither Theo nor angel had come down yet so I went up to get them.

I passed Theo's door planning to tell him after I get angel but certain sounds made me halt. I turned back and pressed my ears on the door. Groans, moans and other pleasure sounds came out of it. I wanted to just pass by but curiosity got the best of me. I opened the door which was luckily unlocked and I smelled it and him before my eyes were set on the shocking sight.

"WHAT THE HELL?" I growled and damn was I extremely angry.
