The Pack's Weirdo : A Mystery to unveil
Chapter 51 - Where is Gramma?

Chapter 51: Chapter 51 - Where is Gramma?

Ryan and Jack threw themselves on semi-naked Ben, and all three of them fell to the ground with a very heavy thud... {they will surely break his backbone}

"Oh dad, I missed you so much," Jack said and kissed Ben’s cheek ... {why did he call him dad?}

"He is just blabbering shit, dad; he has not even shown his face from the last ten days" Ryan smacked Jack’s head, and Ben laughed at their antics.

"Fine boys, fine, we will talk about everything later first; get up from me. I know I am still young, but you guys weigh a ton" he pushed both of them, and Jack pouted while Ryan gave his hand to Ben. "Oh, I was not expecting everyone here at this time" Ben looked at everyone.

"Well, we kind of got stuck into something. How are you, uncle ben?" Ellon went towards him while smiling, and Ben hugged him tightly.

"And here comes my most wise son" Ellon laughed at this, and Mia also went towards him.

"Don’t forget about me, old man", she said to him, and he chuckled.

"How can I forget you, sweetheart?" he said dramatically and kissed her forehead. "I can never forget any one of you", Layla cleared her throat, "and obviously their sweet mates" Layla also went towards him and hugged him... {What’s with Ben and all those hugs? Does everybody like him so much? Even Layla also. She is never this frank with even Alpha Aiden}. Matt went towards him and shook his hand.

"Hello, alpha Benjamin"... {finally, there is someone who is formal with him} ... Ben chuckled and engulfed Matt in a similar hug... {so, that’s why everyone is hugging him}

"Oh, come on, matt. No need for formalities. You can call me Ben, Uncle Ben, Handsome Ben, Brave Ben, etc. etc. But leave these alpha formalities for Ryan" he looked and Ryan and smirked. "Ryan is obsessed with these formalities, not me" Ryan rolled his eyes while Jack chuckled, but other than that, none of them reacted... {why did he have to be so formal with his own people?}

"Oh, we have a company" Ben came towards me and extended his hand for a handshake ", and you are" he is still in the previous shape as I had seen in my nightmare. Same brown hair, black eyes, and the same face cut as Ryan, but still, there are a few things that are missing and a few new things. His skin is not as clear and bright as it was before. I can clearly see in his eyes that although he is happy, he is still missing a significant part of himself. His face has many lines and few wrinkles, but still, he is not looking tired or sad from his life. No matter what he misses, he is still content and happy in his life.

"Hey, you there" I came out of my thoughts when Ben waved his hand in front of my face. {he is one of the strongest people I have met in my life till now}. I don’t know why but an instant smile came on my face, and instead of shaking his hand that he was still offering to me. I encircled my arms around his torso, and I knew that I had surprised him... "that’s" I know he is hesitating, but I didn’t let him go.

"It’s good to meet you, brave ben" I let him go, and he is looking at me with shock written on his face. He took a few seconds, but that very familiar smile again returned on his face, and he patted my head in a kind of love that I had missed for years.

"It’s good to meet you too, little lady", he patted, and Ryan came towards us.

"Let’s go inside, dad" from the time Ben came, Ryan was smiling like an idiot.

All of us went inside the house, and I closed the door behind us. Both Ryan and Jack are going to sit on the sofa in their bloodied forms. I wanted to stop them, but then I remembered that this would sound extremely rude... {and it’s not like gramma is nearby who will scold them} ... I looked around, but gramma is nowhere... {oh, that’s actually good. I don’t want her to sprout nonsense in front of Ben. I don’t want him to place any hope on me for his son, at least not for now.}

"Come here ’’ Ben told Jack, and he scrunched his nose in dislike but winced when he felt pain... {obviously, you dumbasses, it will hurt like shit, no matter werewolf or not} ... Jack was on his knees in front of Ben while Ben was sitting on a sofa. Ben did something to his nose, and with a crack sound and a very painful groan from Jack, I knew that Ben had again replaced it in its position... {that’s good. If he had not placed his nose in the right place on time, then his werewolf genes would have repaired the bone on the wrong spot, and his beautiful face would have been ruined}. He did the same thing with Ryan, but I turned my gaze in another direction... {I don’t want to see him in pain}

"What were you thinking?" Ryan whispered, which startled me. I placed my hand on my heart.

"Can you not give me another heart attack?" I also whispered, and he smirked.

"Why? Is your heart not able to take my handsomeness?" he asked cockily, and I rolled my eyes... {dude, if he ever will be able to hear or feel my thoughts, then he will surely know how many times you have changed the gender of moon goddess only to picture Ryan on moon god’s place} ...

"You know I have thought previously that even your skeleton will also look handsome", he raised his eyebrow with that cocky smirk plastered on his face, "but today, jack proved that even the alpha king himself can look like a rabid dog with a broken nose" I can’t help but tease him. He glared at me for a few seconds, but I could see those cute dimples trying to make their way on his stubbled cheeks. I poked his cheeks, and he finally smiled. "I also have dimples, alpha; I know it is hard to hide the smile with them" he shook his head, and we both smiled like idiots.

When I looked at Ben again, everyone was silent and was looking at us as if we had grown two heads.

"No, no, no.. don’t tell me you again fell in love with someone who is not your mate, Ryan?" Ben put his hands on Ryan’s shoulders with extremely serious expressions "oh, Chandra, what should I do with this stupid kid?" He was looking alarmed.

"I am his mate" I don’t know what got into me, but I wanted him not to misunderstand anything in Ryan’s and mine case. He was so shocked to say or even express anything, "but we have not accepted each other." If I am reading his expressions correctly, then I think he is surely going to cry within five seconds... {one}... or is he going to scold us? {two...} or worse, what if he will be mad that his son got mated with a human?... {three}... damn, why have I not thought about this before telling him the truth? Stupid addy... {yeah, you are stupid, four} ... {fiv..} Suddenly, he hugged both of us in a bone-crushing hug... {ok, I was not expecting this}

"That’s the best news I have heard in years" I bet he is crying.

"Dad, did you not hear the last part?" Ryan asked him in confusion.

"Let me be happy, Ryan. Finally, my little boy met his mate" I can’t stop myself from laughing at this... {his definition of little is surely wrong}.

"Fine", Ryan said grumpily and looked at me and then at Ben "dad, could you at least wear a shirt or something," he said to him, and Ben chuckled at this but let us go.

"Is my little boy getting possessive for his mate?" he teased Ryan and ruffled his long hair, "I think you should have a haircut now", Ryan rolled his eyes ", and maybe you also need to shave or at least trim your beard."

"You also know that I am not going to change these, dad," he said and went towards the kitchen, but Ben stopped him in mid.

"Oh, come on, boy, you have a mate now. At least groom yourself for her. Do you want her to think of you as a rabid wild dog?" ... {why am I getting a feeling that this conversation is soon going to come to me?}

"I am a werewolf dad. How can you even expect me not to be wild?" he asked him and looked at me. "Do you have any issues with my hairstyle, Aadhya?" both of them shifted their focus on me.

"I think... I am hungry." I ran into the kitchen, and after a few minutes, another pair of footsteps followed me... {it’s jack} ... "Did they ask the same question to you?" I asked him, and he took an apple from the fruit basket.

"Yeah, dad has been trying to convince him for a long time now, but Ry likes his style," he said casually.

"Actually, I also like his style, but I can’t say that Ben is wrong either. My gramma is also like that. Wait, where is gramma?" I asked no one in particular and looked around the kitchen, but she was nowhere to be found. I went outside and crossed the hall where Ben and Ryan were still arguing, and went directly to her room. "Gramma", I called her, but no one replied. I also checked the bathroom, but she was nowhere to be found.

"Ryan, did you know where gramma is?" I asked Ryan and went towards my room to check if she was there. I closed my eyes and tried to sniff her scent to guide me to her "she is not at home; her scent is very mild".

He was at my side now. "I am going to look for her" he was about to jump from the window when someone mind-linked him. "Shit", he cursed under his breath ", Amara’s health deteriorated suddenly" as soon as he said that, I couldn’t stop myself from panicking. "Don’t panic. I got this. I am sending someone to search for Shira. No one is going to hurt her. Do you want to go into dungeons or to search for Shira?" he asked me, and I knew the clear answer.

"I am going into dungeons. Increase the security there." I didn’t wait for him. I took the keys to his motorbike and, without his permission, rode his bike at full speed towards the dungeon.
