Yes 2024-02-18 11:59 active 189 0 2454118544775272 Click To Read on 👉River & Her Royal Mate “You gotta relax. Especially if we’re going to be seeing more of each other,” Clay Baldwin said smoothly.<br /> River nodded. She was nervous. This was her future mate, the Alpha&#039;s son. She wanted to make a good impression. This was the day of the mate announcement ceremony. <br /> Clay didn’t do a very good job of hiding his disdain of her.<br /> “I’ll see you inside, alright?” He trotted down to the side door and disappeared.<br /> The rest of the pack was seated when she slid into the double doors and quickly located her family. Thankfully, her seat was along the aisle. That would make it easier to get up when Clay announced her as his mate.<br /> River slunk into her seat as the handsome young man took the stage to thunderous applause. Clay’s dad held up his son’s hands proudly and egged the crowd on.<br /> Soon, the ruckus died down and Clay stepped up to the mic.<br /> “’Sup pack?” He said, smirking. A murmur of laughter and whistle rose up in response. “So I’ve given a lot of thought to who will stand by my side when I take over as Alpha someday. Think I’ve made the right choice.”<br /> More applause.<br /> River felt her heart swell with anticipation.<br /> She didn’t know him that well, but that’s just how these things went. The bond had been read and confirmed by Clay’s mother, the current Luna. River started to stand.<br /> “I know it’s breaking tradition,” he started slowly, raising his voice, “But I choose the love of my life: Victoria Pullman. Say hello to your new and future Luna!”<br /> The floor opened up a chasm beneath her.<br /> Oh, God. This wasn’t real.<br /> She had been looking forward to this day for months.<br /> Out of every possible scenario she could have imagined, this was beyond anything that had crossed her mind. <br /> Clay chose someone else.<br /> In front of the entire pack.<br /> And it was Victoria bane-of-her-existence Pullman.<br /> Years of compounded embarrassment piled up into a flood of choking shame.<br /> Where every eye should have been on the stage, hundreds of gazes veered back on River. Victoria glared triumphantly down from the stage right at her.<br /> Clay’s were the only eyes avoiding hers in the auditorium.<br /> River noticed the rush of blood in her ears dying down as the first whisper registered, followed by a snicker, then a loud comment. The mockery was met with covered mouths and laughter.<br /> “Of course an Alpha wouldn’t pick her.”<br /> “It’s for the best.”<br /> Idiot! Why would he pick you? Her own thoughts lashed out inside, bitter and sneering.<br /> The bond had been wrong.<br /> The piercing stab of grief and actual, physical pain that lanced through her guts revealed the truth. Something had shattered inside of her. She wanted to scream.<br /> That, and RUN.<br /> And she did.<br /> River burst through the doors and into the fading dusk.<br /> She ran until she stumbled, one of her flats tearing on the side. <br /> Her lungs felt raw. Her feet hurt.<br /> Slumping down onto a stump, she finally let the tears come. Silent sobs wracked her body, her hands wrapped around her arms for comfort.<br /> A crunch on the gravel path announced her Aunt Klara before she spoke.<br /> “Heya, Rapid.” There was an unusual hesitation in Klara’s crisp tone.<br /> “I’m so sorry, Aunt K.” It was all she could get out.<br /> “For what? You didn’t do anything wrong. Except maybe running all the way across town…” The wariness returned.<br /> “W-what do you mean?”<br /> Klara frowned and ignored her question.<br /> “C&#039;mon, sweetie. Grandma’s worried. Get in the car.”<br /> Getting her mate was supposed to be her turning point, where things changed for the better. She was hoping for signs of her wolf to show. Unlike other wolves, River never got hers when puberty hit. <br /> She held out a glimmer of hope that she would get her wolf when she got her mate. But now even that is lost. <br /> Grandma Lucy bustled about as soon as River came through the door with Aunt Klara close behind. The older woman was distraught, more than River had ever seen. <br /> “Let me make you some tea, Rivvy.” Grandma&#039;s hands were shaking.<br /> &quot;I’m fine, Grandma. Why don’t you go lay down. I’m sorry,” River muttered thickly. Grandma Lucy patted her hand and shuffled out of the room.<br /> “You had Lucy worried to death, Riv.” Klara’s words were quiet, but cutting.<br /> “I know.”<br /> “You know better! You know what happened to your daddy. How he just went off.” Klara was trying to keep the reprimand out of her voice.<br /> “But I would never-”<br /> “Of course you wouldn’t, but Grandma’s poor heart assumed the worst. She can’t help but worry about you.”<br /> “Oh, no, no. You’re right. I feel terrible.”<br /> For so many reasons. Way to go River.<br /> “You have every right to be upset. What that boy did is not right.” The snap came back to Klara’s voice.<br /> “He’s a piece of !” River snarled, louder than she meant. “I can’t face him again, Klara. I can’t go to college in the fall and see him.”<br /> Klara flinched slightly at the outburst. She recovered and continued talking, “River, it’s a big campus. You probably won’t even see him.”<br /> “I can’t do it. I’m a…a coward!” Tears burned at the edges of her eyes. “I’m weak. Just like my mom.”<br /> Klara cut across the kitchen so fast that River slumped back into the plush couch. The angular woman’s features seemed to cut into sharper edges as she loomed over her raising one finger.<br /> “You. Are. Not. And neither was your mother. Audrie was the strongest female I’ve ever known next to your Grandma. I never want to hear you say that again.”<br /> “Fine. But I still feel weak.”<br /> A look of incredulity washed over Klara&#039;s face.<br /> “Weak, huh? I wouldn’t call anyone who sprinted four miles across town in ten minutes weak.”<br /> She must have been exaggerating.<br /> The next few nights, River struggled to sleep, and when she did, her dreams were filled with anxiety and vague scenarios of terrible embarrassment. Sometimes, she was back in the auditorium.<br /> Other times she was up on a stage, the crowd full of Clays and Victoria’s, all laughing at her. By the end of the week, she was feeling run down and exhausted.<br /> “River. It’s been a week. You haven’t left the house.” Grandma&#039;s gentle tone broke the mid-morning quiet.<br /> Lucy and Klara were determined to get her out of her rut. Eventually, with their insistence, they successfully got her out of the house. For the first time since the fiasco occurred, River felt a little like herself again. <br /> After a day of fun, shopping, and relaxation, they took the long route home around Lake Holm, singing loudly to the radio. Klara parked on the top of the reservoir wall so they could watch the sunset.<br /> “How do you feel now, Rapid?”<br /> “I feel…like I could do anything,&quot; River admitted.<br /> “Does that include facing Clay Baldwin and your first semester at college?”<br /> “It does. But only if you promise to use your new confidence, too,” River retorted, bumping her aunt with her hip as they leaned on the railing.<br /> “To do what, exactly?” Klara eyed her suspiciously.<br /> “To ask out Gus, of course!”<br /> ~~~<br /> All of the make overs, adventures, and prerequisite reading in the world couldn’t prepare River for the first day of college.<br /> Grandma Lucy and Klara had insisted on a tour some weeks before, so she knew exactly where she was going. <br /> But there were so. Many People.<br /> More people than she had ever had to hustle through in her life.<br /> River tried to act like she wasn’t looking around like a deer in the headlights. She checked her map and kept her head down as she walked.<br /> A passage mostly cleared out heading out toward the science building.<br /> Pausing for a breath and to grab a snack from the vending machine, she looked at herself in the reflection of the glass.<br /> She looked good. Better than she ever had.<br /> This summer really helped her find herself.<br /> Between rigorous exercise, finally letting Aunt Klara and Grandma Lucy teach her how to put on makeup, and finding a balance of comfy and fancy in her wardrobe, River felt…almost confident.<br /> The challenges she had given herself and been given had forced her to make some changes.<br /> Most importantly, they helped soothe the pain of the broken bond. The memory of the pain remained, but she had overcome it. The thought of seeing Clay no longer filled her with abject terror.<br /> Not that she was excited to run into him just a few minutes later in the grassy courtyard outside her first class. Of all the rotten luck.<br /> The blond, feathered hair and the once-dreamy brown eyes noted her before she could turn away. <br /> “Yo, Landon. I was wondering if I’d see you around.”<br /> “Had to happen eventually,” River snipped a little too tightly.<br /> “Whoa, summer sure did you a lot of favors.”<br /> She wondered if he meant her bold tone or her new look until he eyeballed her up and down appreciatively.<br /> Gross.<br /> River cleared her throat pointedly.<br /> “Are you…in this class?” She finally forced out to fill the awkward silence.<br /> “Yeah, we got Mason’s class together Monday and Wednesday.” He thumbed over his shoulder at the double classroom door.<br /> “That’s what you meant when you said we’d be seeing a lot more of each other.” The realization clicked in her head. Stupid girl. She pushed the embarrassment away.<br /> “Yeah. I thought you had seen the class roster, too.” His half grin used to make her nervous in a good way. Now it just made her want to slap it off his face.<br /> Slap it off?! Who was she turning into, exactly?<br /> “So, no hard feelings, right? Just pack business, you know?” He tried to fall into step beside her as River shrugged past him into the classroom.<br /> “Yeah, sure. I certainly didn’t lose any sleep over it,” she lied. River wouldn’t have bought her own fib if she hadn’t noticed the flash of hurt that passed across Clay’s face. Score one for River.<br /> The surge of satisfaction at his reaction that followed took her off guard.<br /> Clay fell a step behind as she entered the big, lab-style room. <br /> River quickly swept off toward the side near the back and slipped into an open seat next to a hunched over student. His head was buried in the folds of his hoodie-swathed arms across the desk.<br /> The last thing she needed was to get stuck next to Clay. Or as lab partners if the seating arrangement was permanent.<br /> Unfortunately, the seat across the aisle was open and captain-cocky tried to act nonchalant, making a show of looking around before he “noticed” the seat and took it.<br /> River had made a point of arriving early, but now she was regretting it.<br /> “You know, my mom was pissed,” Clay started, clearly wanting her to engage with him and ask why.<br /> “Why would she be pissed about you picking your girlfriend?” River tried to keep her voice from sounding bitter or the least bit interested.<br /> “Because of the rules, tradition. She said I really messed it up passing you over. Maybe she was right about the mating bond. Can’t argue with how the way you look is makin’ me feel…” He rubbed his chin between his finger and thumb like he was choosing what flavor of ice cream he wanted.<br /> River could feel his eyes crawling over her again. Something reared up deep inside her and almost had her slinging a textbook into his stupid face before she could stop it.<br /> The urge sent a thrill of shock along her spine. It also kind of make her feel sick.<br /> Confrontation always did.<br /> Instead, she took a long, hopefully bored-looking breath, before she turned to glance at him. “What mating bond, Claybourne?”<br /> She may as well have punched him in the balls.<br /> All he managed in response was a shoulder-bouncing huff.<br /> The young would-be Alpha’s jaw worked a couple of times before he closed his mouth, his face flushing beet red as he breathed hard through his nose.<br /> After a few seconds, he stood upright, grabbed his bag and shuffled off, attempting to look casual about it. He rolled his shoulders and only glanced back once.<br /> River fought back a smile.<br /> There were benefits to being ignored in high school and at pack community events. And short of the times when certain stuck-up demon girls singled her out for torture, River was virtually invisible outside of passing remarks about her family.<br /> When no one knew or cared that you were standing nearby, or listening, they said all sorts of fun little facts about each other. For example, Clay detested his full name and did everything in his power to keep anyone from finding out about it.<br /> He was also known for being able to get any girl he wanted.<br /> Rumor had it, even while dating Victoria.<br /> The icing on the cake was honestly being able to blow him off in return. Now that she was face-to-face with him, she barely even felt the wound he had inflicted on her three months ago.<br /> A little vindication and righteous anger helped soothe any residual hurt.<br /> Still, she couldn’t believe how bold and outright she had just been to him.<br /> Was this the new River?<br /> She would have to be careful just how sassy she would let herself get, at the risk of becoming just like Victoria Pullman.<br /> At least she wasn’t in this class.<br /> But, man, this semester was going to be something. No more Clay pestering her. A comfortable spot near the back with a quiet, likely stoner kid that she might not even have to talk to much…<br /> A growling groan and movement to her left drew her attention as more students rushed in to fill the seats. The professor shuffled in, flopping down a stack of papers and clicking on the remote for the projector.<br /> The huddled hoodie-headed guy stretched all the way up with his arms over his head, yawning.<br /> River was met with an eye full of sun kissed skin and chiseled abs peeking out from under the upraised red hoodie and white tee beneath.<br /> Oh, sweet wolf-mother.<br /> She couldn’t stop her eyes from trailing up, dragged along for the ride as big, strong hands clasped around the bottom of the garment and drew the hoodie up and over. This movement showcased long, deliciously defined arms laced with cable-like muscles beneath supple skin.<br /> His chest pressed through the plain, soft white cotton, a perfect ridge cut right between two even more perfect slabs of-<br /> Look away. Look away now.<br /> Or keep looking forever.<br /> No!<br /> Clawing at her self-control, River tore her gaze away just as his messy, honey-brown locks flipped down, only catching a glimpse of his smooth cheeks above a notably bold, but still intriguingly boyish jawline.<br /> River forced her vision forward, fumbling with her notebook and dropping her entire case of pencils and pens out across the desk.<br /> “Thanks, I forgot to bring one of my own.” The voice was like melted butter, infused with just a hint of laughter and knee-buckling baritone.<br /> Like it held a secret only he wanted her to know about.<br /> Time seemed to collapse. River tried to think of a response and was cognizant that these silent seconds felt like minutes.<br /> Words. Laugh. Anything. Just say something!<br /> “Pencil. Notes. Yeah. For writing,” River heard someone say in her voice.<br /> Well. You had a good run, River.<br /> Pun intended.<br /> The angelic apparition next to her tapped the butt of the pencil on the table and nodded slowly, leaning over the desk to peer into her face. “I could not have put it any better myself. I’m Kai.”<br /> The crumpled constraints of the horrible frozen moment unfurled all at once and time caught up, moving too fast. She couldn’t process what had just happened.<br /> What. The. Hell did she just say to him?<br /> Instinct took over at the same moment the professor raised his voice to call the class to order. River saw Kai’s offered hand and took it, gave it a polite shake without looking him in the face and immediately fell into the issued instructions from the front of the class to open their textbooks to page seventy-five.<br /> The rest of the hour-and-something class flashed by in a blur of cell division and biological jargon and River was up and rushing out the door before Professor Mason could say “see you next class-period.”<br /> Slam-bam, right into Victoria Pullman.<br /> “Watch where you’re going, Creepy-Creek!”<br /> The shrill voice combined with a version of Victoria’s oh-so-not-creative nomenclature for River sent chills of dread through her entire body.<br /> “I thought I saw you slinking in at the back of class. Surprised you’d even show your face after this last summer. Nice hair.” Despite the derisive tone of the rest, Victoria’s final comment sounded more like a compliment.<br /> Victoria was genuinely obsessed with fashion, to be fair.<br /> Maybe she could smooth things out?<br /> “Thanks. Good to see you too, Vitchy,” River grumbled sarcastically, before she knew what she was saying.<br /> “Oh! The mongrel thinks she’s got teeth now because she figured out how to put on eye-liner?” Victoria pursued her as she tried to walk away.<br /> So much for smoothing things out.<br /> Other students were watching as they passed. It was becoming a scene.<br /> “And don’t think I didn’t see you talking to my man in there! He’s not into strays, alright? Stay away from him.”<br /> “Maybe you should tell him to stop trying to hump my leg and there won’t be an issue!” River swerved abruptly, feeling her cheeks flush, boiling hot, as she glared right into the shorter girl’s blue eyes.<br /> “What did you just say?” Victoria hissed.<br /> “I said that I can’t decide which one of you needs the leash and which one needs the muzzle!” River was shouting and she didn&#039;t know why.<br /> River’s stomach sank in immediate regret.<br /> Victoria’s posture changed and her hand came out of nowhere, right at River’s face.<br /> She flinched as she braced for impact. But the slap didn’t land.<br /> At least not on her face.<br /> The hallway was dead silent in the wake of the sharp smack.<br /> River followed Victoria’s shocked - but still rage-filled gaze - to the victim of her strike, who somehow appeared out of nowhere just between them. He was wearing a bright red hoodie and was rubbing his cheek thoughtfully.<br /> Victoria and River both slowly looked up at the unreasonably stunning face, right to the equally bright-red hand print marring its smooth, statuesque perfection.<br /> “Wow. You hit people pretty often? Cause you really pack a punch,” Kai said, clear disdain dripping off his quiet, chuckling comment.<br /> ~<br /> Kai.<br /> She didn’t even know his last name.<br /> Her imagination filled it in as Kai Redhood, heroic, shining knight for hire. The start of a dozen fantasies tried to take flight.<br /> She had definitely read way too many novels over the summer.<br /> Still, he stepped in to take the hit for her.<br /> In the wake of the altercation, no less than half a dozen she wolves swarmed to Kai’s aid. <br /> Ravenous dogs every one of them.<br /> River frowned at herself. Grandma Lucy would be immeasurably disappointed in her for insulting her own kind that way.<br /> But the fact remained. She couldn’t hold a candle to all of the other she-wolves at her school or anywhere else. She couldn’t even shift yet. <br /> What did she have to offer a wolf like Kai?<br /> And a wolf he was.<br /> That, and he had all the trimmings of “the new kid in town.”<br /> Lone wolf.<br /> Returning home, River put her thoughts behind her. She helped her grandmother in the kitchen. <br /> “Are you going to tell me anything, or do I have to pry it out of you?” Grandmother Lucy asked.<br /> “Oh! Right. School. Good. It was good.”<br /> “And?”<br /> “And…I saw Clay. And Victoria.”<br /> There was a long pause. Another voice coughed lightly near the stairs. Klara leaned against the door frame. Both women waited, a bit tense.<br /> “It didn’t even bother me. I have a class with both of them.” River shrugged and went back to chopping. She noted Klara’s pointed glance at her grandmother.<br /> “Well..that’s good.”<br /> “Oh yeah, great.” River deflected. “The professor in that class is super interesting.”<br /> Oof. She was a terrible liar.<br /> “I am relieved to hear you kids are getting along,” Klara played along.<br /> Grandma Lucy may or may not have grimaced and rolled her eyes. She tapped the ladle against the pot rim a bit aggressively.<br /> Klara was supposed to be telling her something.<br /> Something she wouldn’t like to hear.<br /> “Because…?”<br /> “Because Clay’s Alpha ceremony was announced for next weekend. The whole pack is invited. Obligated to go, really.”<br /> “What?!” It came out way louder than River had intended. “I mean, fine. But why? He’s so young. Alpha Baldwin is still in his prime, right?”<br /> “At times Alpha’s will let their successor take charge on a probationary basis. Or they might step down because of...” Grandma’s words trailed off.<br /> “Stuff,” Klara finished for her.<br /> “River. I know you were spurned...”<br /> “Spurned? It’s not like I ever had anything to do with Clay before the Announcement. Not really.” She really tried to sound like she didn’t care, but there were too many warring emotions. Everything was happening too soon.<br /> Her life was just supposed to be getting good. Now her enemies would be in charge. She’d have to watch her back. All the time.<br /> “Regardless. It is our duty to go. Especially since the Lycans will be there.”<br /> “Wait…like, those Lycans? Aren’t they like were-royalty?”<br /> “Exactly. Like Alpha of Alphas. Rumor has it that the King wolf might make an appearance himself,” Klara rapped the table with her knuckles. “Even if it weren’t an issue of pack obligation, or propriety, you would really do well to mingle with anyone from the Lycan family, River.”<br /> “If they are so almighty and powerful, why do they allow worthless Alphas to rule over us and treat members like they treat us?” River blurted out. <br /> “River! Do not speak about our leaders like that,” Grandma Lucy snapped. <br /> “They do know what they are doing. Lycans keep the whole were-wolf world a secret, and put the right people in the right places to keep us safe.”<br /> Maybe it was the idea of going to another big gathering. Tons of people. The pack that had just ridiculed her only a few months before.<br /> Either way, it looked like she didn’t have a choice.<br /> “Fine. I’ll go. I really need a run. Be back for dinner.”<br /> Without another word, she stood and stalked to her room, changed, and headed for the door. The streets flew by and quickly gave way to gravel, then dirt and stone.<br /> River took the steep side of the trail with a growl, pushing herself into a full run.<br /> Her body rose to the challenge, her anger and frustration fueling her muscles. So maybe she was still a little pent up. <br /> One summer of personal growth was not quite enough to erase a lifetime of insecurities. She wished she could just will them away.<br /> But she was still worried. All the time.<br /> She was sick of running away.<br /> This was different.<br /> She needed this run. Her breath felt ragged and her lungs burned, but she kept going.<br /> The heat of the late afternoon only served to bolster her aggression.<br /> Sweat cascaded down her back, trickled from her brow and into her eyes, but she ignored it.<br /> Thick evergreen trees lining the path thinned ahead and she finally slowed, emerging onto a dusty, red stone flat top, one sharp point sticking out right over the glittering green lake below.<br /> Getty Lake looked spectacularly cool and refreshing after her run.<br /> No one was around for miles to see her in her underwear. No one was around to see her jump. Nothing to worry about.<br /> It was just her and her fears. Just like so many times before.<br /> Only this time she would do it.<br /> She was still catching her breath, her hands raised to rest on her head, as she stepped up to the lip and gauged the drop. It still looked as high as it ever had.<br /> A pang of fear shivered up her spine as she wheeled, throwing a hand out to the side to block any attack or to strike out at a would-be assailant. The move caused her to slip sideways. Her foot found nothing but empty air next to her. <br /> Long, sturdy arms wrapped around her and pulled her into a tight grip.<br /> Gasping, she squirmed for a second, trapped against a warm, firm body behind her.<br /> Her nostrils flared for a second at the faint hint of cologne.<br /> Slowly she turned her head and a pair of familiar amber eyes gazing back at her.<br /> And felt every inch of his hot, bare skin pressed tightly against her back.<br /> It was Kai.<br /> ~<br /> River was lost somewhere between a glare and a gawk.<br /> She could still feel his skin pressing against her back. It sent a euphoric rush along her thighs that reminded her of a runner’s high.<br /> Kai released River as soon as he felt her tense.<br /> Then he simply smiled, and tossed himself off the cliff with an obnoxious, casual little wave. Like he jumped off forty foot drops all the time. It made her irrationally annoyed for some reason.<br /> Now she stood there with her fists clenched, fighting with herself. Having an audience for her face off with fear was not what she had in mind when she came out here.<br /> On the other hand, who cares? And she couldn&#039;t just back down now that he had already done it.<br /> She should just jump.<br /> So jump.<br /> She should just put her clothes back on and go home.<br /> So go home.<br /> She should flip him off.<br /> From this distance she couldn’t quite be sure of the smirk that passed over Kai’s incredible lips. Was he laughing at her?<br /> Her toes curled over the roughhewn lip of rock and she caught a shuddering inhale. She didn’t remember stepping up to the edge. River cast one last glance down to make sure he was watching.<br /> Kai definitely made a face. River definitely gave him the finger.<br /> Then she was airborne.<br /> For a second, it was nothing. There was no fear, no sensation, just a sort of horrified realization that she had finally done it and had to live with the consequences.<br /> The rush tightened every muscle in her body, which was good because one instinct was to flail and somewhere in between the high pitched squeal that followed her down she knew flailing would get her hurt when she hit the water.<br /> Forty feet lasted an eternity but was over in a split second.<br /> She forced herself to catch a tiny breath and clamped her eyes shut right before she hit.<br /> Ice cold water surged up around her, enveloping her.<br /> It felt…incredible. Every inch of her skin sang with the impact and the jolt of delicious cold.<br /> Adrenaline coursed through her, heightening her senses. Every nerve felt electric.<br /> Water warbled the sounds of her movements in the water. Much to her surprise, none of the water had gone up her nose.<br /> River opened her eyes to look around. The lake was crystal clear. Rippling light reached the sandy bottom a few feet below her. Details jumped out at her, each and every colorful pebble and boulder littering the bottom of the small lake.<br /> Her hands splayed, dragging along to feel the liquid between her fingers.<br /> Pushing upward, she realized how deep she was and had a mini panic attack. She forced it down, stroked her arms, and kicked up and broke the surface.<br /> She couldn’t resist the grin that pulled so hard at her mouth that her cheeks hurt. A soft chuckle to her right matched her own sputtering laugh.<br /> Kai was hovering nearby, his amber eyes sparkling. Water matted his honey-colored hair to his head, not darkening it much, but accenting the golden highlights. A few short curls still fought free, playfully bobbing around his cheeks.<br /> Without a thought, she drifted to him, breathing heavily, but not labored.<br /> In the shallows, shadowed by an overhanging branch, he met her gaze. His tongue flicked over his lips.<br /> Was he nervous? No way.<br /> “You did it,” he stated, not sounding particularly surprised, but maybe a little impressed.<br /> “I did.” She didn’t bother trying to hide her pride in herself. Excitement still hopped and skipped through her limbs from the rush.<br /> Kai moved forward a bit, his shoulders poking above the surface of the water. He looked beyond enticing.<br /> “What’s your name?” He sounded almost hesitant.<br /> “River. My name’s River.”<br /> ~<br /> Class felt distant and vague.<br /> And no Kai.<br /> Days zipped by and trudged along.<br /> Still no sign of Kai. <br /> She couldn&#039;t keep her mind off him, but she didn&#039;t know where he was either. She could even imagine more intensely, Kai’s full, sensuous lips brushing down her neck, her collarbone…<br /> Whoa there, River.<br /> Every sense was on fire.<br /> On the other hand, River wondered if she would ever get a sign of her wolf. The changes that came with becoming a wolf usually started after your first shift into your new form, and those even longer after the inner wolf’s voice made itself known in puberty.<br /> River hadn’t heard a peep.<br /> No wolf. Nothing.<br /> Additionally, the mate bond breaking between her and Clay should have had lasting effects on her, but there was none of that either.<br /> Of course, her and Clay had not mutually accepted the bond and consummated it.<br /> Thank goodness.<br /> The thought of anything remotely intimate with Clay made her want to puke.<br /> She had only crossed his path again a few times in the halls on the university campus. Each time he was evasive, but stared openly at her.<br /> Almost desperately.<br /> It sort of felt like a role reversal.<br /> He looked at her from afar with a look in his eye that made her skin crawl. <br /> The day of the ascension ceremony dawned and River found herself up with the sunrise, feeling almost anxious about the proceedings. She couldn’t for the life of her think of why…<br /> Not because she would get to see Kai.<br /> The entire town must have turned out -- plus the Calders from Edmondson a few miles over -- to see so many wolves. This Lycan family really must be something to attract such a crowd.<br /> As if in answer to her thoughts and wide-eyed stare, Klara said, “The Calder pack has finally conceded and agreed to join up with us if they are happy with the ascension proceedings today.”<br /> “Hard to believe. Jebediah’s clan always swore they’d never merge with another pack,” Grandma Lucy shook her head. “Resources really must be thin if they finally gave in to the Baldwins.”<br /> “They may back out when they meet Clay,” Klara snickered.<br /> Grandma and Klara never did like the ruling Alpha’s family much, thought they typically kept those thoughts to themselves. Especially at a pack gathering.<br /> River started to ask a question when a faint scent caught her attention.<br /> Her skin pebbled with goosebumps.<br /> Cedar…<br /> Crisp, cold mountain air…<br /> “Um, I want to go walk around the lake before it starts,” she offered as she veered away from her family.<br /> The scent trail of cedar and moss drew her off around the lake to the far side.<br /> Rich pine and wood soon overpowered the faint guiding lure and she grunted in frustration. He had to be off this way somewhere…<br /> River tilted her head to the sound of a snapping twig off in the dimness of the forest.<br /> “Kai?” She crept around a towering trunk, her heart pounding. Strong hands snatched out and pulled her forward into the shadows.<br /> A yelp escaped her mouth as a heavier body twirled her around and slammed her back against rough bark. Hot breath heaved along her neck as the body pressed close and a sickening snarl curled around her left ear, making her want to scream.<br /> “You’d think you could at least pronounce my name right,” The words were a guttural grumble.<br /> “Clay?!” She stammered out.<br /> “Relax, Landon. This was always meant to be. My bad for not seeing it sooner…” Lust graveled his whining voice.<br /> “G-get off-”<br /> “Oh I plan to…bonus points if you do, too, but like my dad always said, &#039;If she can’t learn to like it, that’s her problem!&#039;”<br /> River suppressed a gag of fear and revulsion.<br /> No.<br /> No way he was going to do this.<br /> Something deep in her gut quaked violently. Her hands started to shake with the pulse of adrenaline.<br /> It felt good.<br /> Not ‘good’ like she could ever like what Clay Baldwin had to offer or any sort of sick concession to what he was trying to do. But the kind of good that makes you want to slam your fist into a punching bag.<br /> The kind of good that made her jump off a forty foot cliff.<br /> It overpowered the anxious and terrified sob that tried to erupt from another part of her mind. She wasn’t a helpless little kid.<br /> Clay moved to throw her down to the leave strewn forest floor, yanking her forward. She used the momentum to drive her knee into his crotch.<br /> “You got some spirit after all, huh?” He grasped at his inner thigh where her blow had narrowly missed.<br /> “Stay. Away. From. Me,” River hissed, her breath coming in gasps.<br /> “Or. What?” He taunted, leering at her chest.<br /> River took a step forward aggressively, her eyes boring into him. Clay took a small step back.<br /> Was he intimidated?<br /> He lunged again, but this time River was ready and snatched his wrist, easily twisting and shoving him into the trunk of a thick oak. Clay caught himself and grunted in frustration, hiding it with a chuckle.<br /> River was stronger than him. She could feel it.<br /> Clay matched her forceful steps toward each other and they faced off, both of their fists clenching.<br /> “Oh. My. God!” Victoria’s voice shrieked between them.<br /> River turned, losing the momentum of her anger in shock. “What? He was trying to-”<br /> “Explain that I don’t want her to keep trying to hit on me at school,” Clay prattled off quickly, glaring accusingly at River. Victoria nodded, her suspicions confirmed.<br /> “That’s not-”<br /> “Home wrecker. Creepy Creek just can’t let it go, huh? Don’t you get it? You lost. You always lost. Because you’re a loser.” Victoria closed in. Clay joined her, pressing River back a step, then several. “We may just have to tell everyone how River Landon tried to throw herself at Clay Baldwin on the day of his ascension.”<br /> “Pathetic,” Clay agreed, his lip twitching vindictively.<br /> Irrational panic rose up inside River.<br /> She was back in high school.<br /> She was back at the mating ceremony.<br /> And once again, she ran, the other two hot on her heels.<br /> Rounding the lake, River aimed toward the steps that would take her back down the road, to the car, to the compound, to home.<br /> Anywhere but here.<br /> Just shy of the first step, she threw a glance over one shoulder, spotting Clay and Victoria striding through the crowd toward her. The rest of the wolves hardly seemed to notice, their focus up on the natural platform the Alpha would ascend.<br /> Suddenly, every single wolf present dropped to their belly, every pack member in human form dropped to one knee and forced into wolf form. Victoria and Clay fell mid step, as if thrown to the ground by an unseen force, both of them yelping in shock as they shifted against their will.<br /> Eerie silence settled over the gathering.<br /> River looked around, confused. She scanned the crowd for any sign of her family or of Kai.<br /> And she found him.<br /> An enormous wolf prowled off the edge of the dais, glided through the wolves and shifted mid step back into the gloriously glistening form of Kai a few yards from her.<br /> His amber eyes passed over every bowed head before settling on River. His head tilted to the side and he looked her up and down. Every eye was on her. She was the only other person standing.<br /> “Kai,” River blurted out.<br /> “It’s Malachi, actually. Prince Malachi Lycan,” he said silkily, his full lips curling on one side.

Yes 2024-02-18 11:59 active 189 0 698992652403033 🔥🔥 Click to Read 👉🏻👉🏻 &quot;Don&#039;t walk away from me, Zell,&quot; Kosta yelled.<br /> &quot;Why not? You don&#039;t need me. You have Khalis here to take care of all your needs. She is welcome to you. I hope you all will be very happy together. As for me, I&#039;m done. Good luck to you and this pack. I hope you can handle the fallout for you and your whore&#039;s actions.&quot;<br /> &quot;Mind how you talk to me, Zell. I may be your mate, but I am still the alpha. As a matter of fact, as of right now, I am stripping you of all of your luna privileges.&quot;<br /> I spat. &quot;You should know, you didn&#039;t deprive me of Luna&#039;s title, but I didn&#039;t want it myself. I no longer want it. As for the business, have you forgotten that I own 51% of every business we have? I will withdraw all of my personal finances from the pack.&quot;<br /> &quot;Oh, and Alpha, You, of all people, know how ruthless I can be if pushed.&quot;<br /> ————————<br /> &quot;Well Zel, I just wanted to let you know that I plan on being the Luna of this pack, and your days as Kosta&#039;s mate and luna are numbered. I have decided that I deserve to be luna of the third strongest pack in the nation. I mean why should you get everything and I get stuck with nothing?&quot; Khalis says.<br /> <br /> Is this bimbo serious? I just sat there staring at her for a few seconds. Not much shocks me, but this is something else. I knew Khalis was selfish, but this is on a whole other level. There have been rumors about Khalis sleeping with mated males, but I always gave her the benefit of the doubt. I never thought we would be having this kind of conversation. We have been friends since elementary school. Her father and brothers are elite warriors in my father&#039;s pack. She was with me when Kosta declared we were mates. She even encouraged me to go with him when he begged me and my father to let me come to his pack with him before I turned 18. She moved to this pack with me, hoping to meet her own mate. She knows Kosta is my fated mate. The moon goddess chose for him me. We both have known Kosta for most of our lives. Kosta is one of my brother&#039;s best friends. I keep thinking about everything we have done together and now this bimbo is sitting in my office telling me she plans to take my mate. I&#039;m really speechless. This is a new low, even for her.<br /> <br /> &quot;Just so that I am clear, what exactly do you mean that you want my goddess-given mate and title,&quot; I asked.<br /> <br /> &quot;I mean exactly what I said. I want Kosta. I want to be his luna and I am going to make that happen. I&#039;ve already started the process. I deserve to be a luna.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;So you just want to come in here and tell me that you want my mate? What about your own mate? Have you thought about that? If the goddess meant for you to be a luna, you would have been fated to an alpha.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I waited for my mate. I gave the goddess a chance to do right by me. She gave everyone around me an Alpha. My sister got one, my little ugly cousin got one and even you got one, but what did I get? I got a lowly elite warrior as a mate.&quot; She spat.<br /> <br /> &quot;How can you speak like that about elite warriors? Your father and your brother are elite warriors.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I know, and I deserve better than that. I deserve to be a luna. I deserve to have people respect me and cater to me.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Well, obviously the goddess did not agree with you,&quot; I said. &quot;Just to clarify, you&#039;re saying that even though you found your destined mate, the one that was made specifically for you by the goddess, you&#039;re still interested in my mate? You are unbelievable. What is wrong with you?&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;It&#039;s simple. I&#039;m not meant to be the mate of a warrior. I am meant to be a luna. The moon goddess got it wrong and I am correcting her mistake. As soon as I scented my fated mate and realized he was a warrior, I rejected him and he accepted my rejection. Good riddance.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;So you think you know better than the goddess?&quot; I asked.<br /> <br /> I am still somewhat shocked. I have a hard time reconciling this cold-blooded bimbo to the person that has been my best friend for over a decade.<br /> <br /> &quot;Zell, I told you a long time ago not to trust her. She has always been this person. She just pretended with you.&quot; Sapphire said.<br /> <br /> &quot;This isn&#039;t personal, Zell. It&#039;s simple since the moon goddess did not give me an alpha, I&#039;m going to take one.&quot;<br /> <br /> This bimbo is sitting here calmly telling me she is going to take my mate from me like we are talking about going shopping. She actually thinks this is ok. How could I have been so blind for so long? Everyone tried to warn me about her, but she was my only friend and I just didn&#039;t want to believe that about her. I convinced myself that the others were just jealous of her.<br /> <br /> &quot;Do you really think it is ok to try to break your best friend&#039;s mate bond?&quot; I say.<br /> <br /> &quot;Oh Honey, I&#039;m not going to try. I&#039;m going to do it. He will be mine. I&#039;m just giving you the courtesy of walking away with your dignity. You might as well start making arrangements for yourself because once I am the luna, there is no way that I will let you remain in my pack. He may keep some tender feelings for you. After all, you are fated.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;You got one thing right; Kosta and I are fated. You are not the first she-wolf to try to break our mate bond and since he is an alpha, I&#039;m sure you won&#039;t be the last. I will tell you what I tell them all, If you can get Kosta to cheat on our bond, you can have him. If he can do that, then he is not the man I have believed him to be and wouldn&#039;t deserve me. You would be welcome to him. Just remember, it is because of me and my family that this pack is ranked third. All of that goes with me, but you would be more than welcome to whatever is left.&quot; I say.<br /> <br /> &quot;It&#039;s not an if, it&#039;s a when it happens. And when you leave, Kosta will still be the alpha of this pack. You will just be the ex-luna of the pack. I will be the luna.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;That&#039;s where you are wrong. I am alpha born; a pure-blooded alpha. If I leave, I will still be an alpha and you will still be that bimbo on the side. Some males may be dumb enough to sleep with you, but I have not seen any of the mate men you&#039;ve been accused of leaving their mates for you. Even the ones who got rejected didn&#039;t choose to be with you. Now I suggest you leave my office while I am still being nice or else you will find out why I am feared by others. And if you are successful, don&#039;t think for a minute that my family will let either of you go.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I will leave for now. Enjoy this office while it is still yours. Your arrogance will be your downfall. Why should I fear you or your family? They have not even been around since your luna ceremony. I&#039;ll give you 1 week to make arrangements for yourself. In 7 days, all of this will be mine and you will be out. I will break you and completely disgrace you. I have to thank you for working so hard to build this pack up for me to take over. I will be sure to enjoy the fruit of your labor. I and my children will enjoy this. I am glad he listened to me early on when I told him to wait to have children so you could live your life first. I had to set the groundwork just in case. Now it&#039;s time for you to go before you give him an heir.&quot; Khalis says and walks out of my office like nothing happened.<br /> <br /> She has caused a lot of chaos since coming to this pack. I just didn&#039;t realize her character before now. I thought she was misunderstood. Now I know I was just naïve. It appears that I was the only person blind to her true nature.<br /> <br /> I spent the rest of the day working on pack security and setting up meetings. There are a few alphas wanting an alliance with us. Kosta and I have become quite the power couple in the werewolf society. Since we took over as alpha and luna, the pack and the businesses have grown tremendously. I put my heart and soul into making our pack the best. I got an early start. I graduated from high school when I was 16 and went to university. I graduated with a business degree at 20. Kosta has let me take the lead in our businesses. He knows that beast at negotiation and a whiz at growing businesses. I have acquired several new companies since working in the pack business. Kosta is still the CEO, but I am the COO of the company. I broker the deals and then call Kosta in to close the deal. Most alphas in our circle are jealous of Kosta because he has me at his side. Kosta used to be proud of me and what I did for the pack, but lately he has been resisting the changes I have been making and trying to take over more of the daily operations of the pack. He can&#039;t take it all because I am the sole financial backing of the pack and the businesses.<br /> <br /> I am known in werewolf society as a child prodigy, but don&#039;t get it twisted, I am not all brains. I can be very deadly when needed. I train every day. I am one of the strongest wolves alive, although I keep that hidden. I can be ruthless, but fair. I know that I am the total package. I am athletic, tall with curves in the right places. I&#039;ve never been one to compete with other she-wolves. I thought I was happy and had a good life. I thought Khalis was happy. We used to talk about finding our fated mates. I just can&#039;t understand how or why Khalis would try to come between me and my mate. I wish I could believe that my bond was safe and solid, but Sapphire is right about Kosta acting suspiciously lately. Kosta has been questioning me a lot lately. It&#039;s like he woke up a different person one day. He suddenly lost trust in me, but I have never given him a reason to doubt me. I have found him outside of my door listening to business phone calls, which is crazy because he could just walk in at any time and join the conversation. I have never hidden anything I was doing from him. The worse thing is that our life is now nonexistent. Kosta is always too busy or too tired. His behavior has led me to believe that he is not attracted to me anymore. He had the nerve to ask me why I have been trying so hard to seduce him lately. Like he didn&#039;t just stop making love to me cold turkey all of a sudden. We went from making love every day, sometime multiple times a day, to nothing in over a month. Seems like he should have been worried if I didn&#039;t try to seduce him. I don&#039;t know any mated pair that has gone this long without being intimate with each other. I don&#039;t know what the issue is. If we were not marked, I would wonder if he was cheating, but I know he is not. I would have felt it. Why did all of this suddenly become so hard? Why do I even need to seduce my goddess-given mate? It was never supposed to be this way. At least not yet. I&#039;m only 20 years old. Much too young to be going through a dry spell while mated.<br /> <br /> I got so desperate at one time I asked our friends what was going on with him. Kosta tells his beta and gamma everything. I figured if there was a problem, they would tell me and I could fix it, but they just said that he was under a lot of stress. What exactly does he have to stress about? The pack is doing better than it has been in years. In half a year, the pack will be self-sufficient again and won&#039;t need to depend on my finances to keep it afloat. I have everything set in motion for the pack to have more disposable cash and residual income. I have a feeling this has Khalis written all over it. Kosta appears to have fallen in line with her already. Maybe this was their plan all along. Kosta needed me to get his pack back on track and now that they are almost completely independent, they don&#039;t need me anymore. If that&#039;s the case, they are in for a rude awakening. My six-month plan depends on me closing several more deals. All of these deals are allies with my father, uncle, and grandfather. They will not work with Kosta if our bond falls apart. He would erase everything that I have done over the past three years. Well, that would be his problem.<br /> <br /> I got so caught up in working and thinking; I didn&#039;t realize I worked up to dinner time. No one called me for lunch. In fact, no one called me for dinner. That is strange. One of the omegas usually checks on me when I am working too much and makes sure I am eating. I guess everyone is following Kosta. Since he has not been showing me any care, they are not either. That really hurts. I sacrificed a lot for this pack. I thought they cared more than this for me. I should just go back to my room. I don&#039;t know if I want to be around this pack right now, especially if they could turn their backs on me this quickly. Were they all just using me for my family&#039;s wealth?<br /> <br /> &quot;We need to eat Zell. Remember, we are eating for our pup as well. Don&#039;t let them win. We are better than this. If they show us they don&#039;t want us here, we will leave. Remember, we are alpha born. We will rise above this. We will go back to where we are celebrated. If they turn against us, they don&#039;t deserve us. We will sit back and let them destroy themselves.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;You are right Sapphire. Let&#039;s go eat. Our pup needs sustenance.&quot;<br /> <br /> I went and cleaned myself up and walked to the dining room. As soon as I walked through the door, all the talking stopped. The whole place went silent. As I walked all the way in, I saw why everyone went silent. Khalis was sitting in my seat, putting food on Kosta&#039;s plate like she is the luna. When she saw me, she just smirked and kept doing what she was doing. Kosta just keep eating like I was not standing there. Sapphire stared, pushing forward. She wanted blood. I did too, but I have to think about our pup.<br /> <br /> &quot;What is going on, Kosta? Why is she sitting in my seat feeding you?&quot; I growled.<br /> <br /> &quot;I meant no harm, Zell. You were busy, so I decided to take care of Kosta for you. Someone needs to care for him while you are caring for other things. &quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I was speaking to my mate, not his bimbo on the side.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;You were not here for your mate, so I have been taking care of his needs.&quot;<br /> <br /> Sapphire pushed forward and growled loudly. Everyone in the room bowed their neck to her.<br /> <br /> &quot;I could kill you in less than 30 seconds, Khalis. I would advise you not to keep crossing my line and you will find yourself very dead. You obviously have forgotten who I am. Don&#039;t make me remind you what my family name is,&quot; Sapphire said.<br /> <br /> I regained control and looked at Kosta. He didn&#039;t even appear to be concerned. He didn&#039;t show an ounce of regret or remorse. That took a little of the fight out of me. Khalis can only do what Kosta allows her to do.<br /> <br /> &quot;Kosta, I asked you a question. What is going on?&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;As Khalis said, you were busy, so she came to do your job for you. If you spent more time catering to me, your mate, and less time working or whatever you are doing, Khalis wouldn&#039;t have to step in and take care of my needs.&quot; Kosta said.<br /> <br /> I and every pack member gasped. I could not believe he openly disrespected me like that after everything I have done for him and this pack. I did all of that for him. This ungrateful hip.<br /> <br /> &quot;So now I&#039;m working too much, making your pack financially secure? You were not complaining when the pack was bankrupted and I worked day and night just so you could feed the pack another day. I was working too hard then. It&#039;s only now that you think the pack is out of the woods that I am working too hard. Now that everyone is comfortable and not at risk of starving, you want to change. Ok, I see who you are now. So instead of appreciating the sacrifices I made for us and the pack, you are sitting here with your bimbo, enjoying the feast that my hard work made possible. I am glad I finally understand where your priorities lie. Trust me, I will never make the same mistake twice.&quot; I said and walked away.<br /> <br /> I need to get out of here before I wolf out and kill one of them. After tonight, Khalis can have him. He is not the male I thought he was. I refuse to fight for someone who can spit on all the effort I put into making him great.<br /> <br /> &quot;Don&#039;t walk away from me, Zell,&quot; Kosta yelled.<br /> <br /> &quot;Why not? You don&#039;t need me. You have Khalis here to take care of all your needs. She is welcome to you. I hope you all will be very happy together. As for me, I&#039;m done. Good luck to you and this pack. I hope you can handle the fallout for you and your bimbo&#039;s actions.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Mind how you talk to me, Zell. I may be your mate, but I am still the alpha. As a matter of fact, as of right now, I am stripping you of all of your luna privileges.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Alpha, what are you doing?&quot; Beta James asked<br /> <br /> &quot;Mind your business Beta. This is my pack.&quot; Kosta says.<br /> <br /> &quot;Yes, and as your beta and friend, it is my job to tell you when you are making a mistake. Alpha, you are dangerously close to crossing the line of no return. Let&#039;s all calm down and discuss this later.&quot; Beta James said.<br /> <br /> &quot;Beta, my word stands. Zel, until you learn to respect me as your alpha, you can forget about representing this pack in any aspect. I will be instructing the security team to restrict all of your access. You are no longer the COO of our businesses. As of now, you are just a regular pact member with no power.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;First of all Alpha.&quot; I spat. &quot;Respect is earned. While you are trying to throw your weight around, you can have the luna title back. I no longer want it. As for the business, have you forgotten that I own 51% of every business we have? I also provide 60% of the pack budget from my personal accounts. So while you can restrict my duties as Luna, you cannot touch the business, but I&#039;ll do you a solid. You can buy me out of the business and I will withdraw all of my personal finances from the pack.&quot;<br /> <br /> I can see that he had forgotten how dependent his pack was on me, but oh well. He made his bed. Now he and his bimbo can lie in it.<br /> <br /> &quot;Oh, and Alpha, if you try to strong-arm me, I will have to call in the full loan that I gave this pack when we mated. Remember, we signed a contract for the loan. You have only paid me a small portion of the loan and I have not pushed the issue, but the contract is legal and binding. Don&#039;t push me, Kosta. You, of all people, know how ruthless I can be if pushed.&quot;<br /> <br /> I walked off again and made it as far as the stairs. I realized that I could not stay in my current room anymore. There is no way on this goddess-green earth that I want to be in a room with Kosta. Not that he has really shared it with me lately. Now I know why. Khalis has been feeding him and he has been eating it up. They both miscalculated. They thought I would be leaving here with nothing. The jokes on them. I may have been in love, but there is no love in business. I may have put my all into saving this pack and making it independently wealthy, but my parents did not raise a fool and I protected my finances. I invested millions in this company and pack. Did he really think I would protect my money? Does he not remember the prenup my father made him sign since I was a minor when he brought me to this pack? He never gained control over my finances.<br /> <br /> Khalis just showed her hand. After what I just saw, she has a right to be confident. Kosta has completely changed. He is not the man that I mated. He is not the boy that I followed around when I was younger. I don&#039;t know what happened or when he changed. Maybe this is who he really is and, like with Khalis, I just never saw his true self. He must have hidden it from my father and brother as well. There is no way they would have let me come here when I was 17 if they knew this was how he would end up treating me. I can see now that it is over between Kosta and me. I need to start planning my exit. I pulled up my computer and moved all of my finances from the pack accounts. I closed all the joint accounts I had with Kosta. It was mostly my money that financed them. I left the ones that he financed in his name. I don&#039;t want anything from him at all. After I handle business, I call my brother. I will need his help to leave here safely. Now that Kosta knows that all the money is still tied up with me, I doubt he will let me leave easily. I&#039;m sure he and the bimbo are plotting up something.<br /> <br /> I called my brother and tall him waht happened.<br /> <br /> &quot;So what&#039;s the plan, baby sis?&quot; my brother answered.<br /> <br /> &quot;Well, I have already moved all of my personal money from the pack accounts. They are now responsible for themselves. I&#039;m not sure how that is going to go over. I was covering most of the pack&#039;s budget. Tomorrow, I will contact my attorneys to protect all of my other assets. I also plan to call our allies and let them know that I am no longer associated with the pack. I am erasing everything I&#039;ve done over the past three years. They will need to start over from scratch and rebuild it all on their own. There is no way they will get to enjoy my hard work. No, sir.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Very smart Zell.

I’m known as one of the world’s most accomplished peripheral nerve surgeons. <br /> <br /> I’m also the author of the celebrated book “Sugar Crush” and my new book “Unglued.”<br /> <br /> I’ve spent years studying how society’s current addiction to sugar is causing untold numbers of diseases.<br /> <br /> Here’s how:<br /> <br /> When we eat more than a teaspoon of sugar a day, it causes an inflammatory chemical reaction in human tissues. <br /> <br /> This is well documented. <br /> <br /> Every person’s epigenetic profile is different from everyone else’s. <br /> <br /> This explains why some people develop cancer from secondhand smoke, and some don’t. <br /> <br /> Why some people are prone to get sinus infections, and some aren’t. And so on. <br /> <br /> It also explains how one person’s body might concentrate a sugar-induced inflammation in the skin cells … in which case they might get psoriasis. <br /> <br /> Another person might experience complications with the Vagus nerve that results in scarring of the brain and spinal cord … multiple sclerosis.<br /> <br /> Sadly, the list goes on and on.<br /> <br /> The current medical practice treats disease allopathically, meaning with drugs, radiation, and surgery. <br /> <br /> But there are plenty of other approaches that could work, and one of them is shaking your system free from its addiction to sugar. <br /> <br /> I’ve had phenomenal success taking this approach with patients who suffer from all sorts of ailments.<br /> <br /> To receive an overview of new products and therapies that can drastically improve your existence, please visit my website: <a href="https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.drjacoby.academy%2F&amp;h=AT22IQEjY3mmQCLSHGKdbvMMUwWHC3czrUNiLLHAz_bk4wKxhfWy1vcGI_njIvKKrSCmRClB4Kx4qYtsoHBxbKBN2kQL7Gf0gNpfpUYyBd8NTNKbJKwL4dAmL0Se4bTGRhBc6xKJ4PnKsaLChQjutg" rel="nofollow noreferrer" target="_blank" data-lynx-mode="asynclazy">http://www.drjacoby.academy/</a><br /> <br /> Here’s to you living a longer, happier, healthier life than you once dreamed possible.

Yes 2024-02-18 11:59 active 189 0 768188041371145 🔥🔥 Click to Read 👉🏻👉🏻 &quot;Don&#039;t walk away from me, Zell,&quot; Kosta yelled.<br /> &quot;Why not? You don&#039;t need me. You have Khalis here to take care of all your needs. She is welcome to you. I hope you all will be very happy together. As for me, I&#039;m done. Good luck to you and this pack. I hope you can handle the fallout for you and your whore&#039;s actions.&quot;<br /> &quot;Mind how you talk to me, Zell. I may be your mate, but I am still the alpha. As a matter of fact, as of right now, I am stripping you of all of your luna privileges.&quot;<br /> I spat. &quot;You should know, you didn&#039;t deprive me of Luna&#039;s title, but I didn&#039;t want it myself. I no longer want it. As for the business, have you forgotten that I own 51% of every business we have? I will withdraw all of my personal finances from the pack.&quot;<br /> &quot;Oh, and Alpha, You, of all people, know how ruthless I can be if pushed.&quot;<br /> ————————<br /> &quot;Well Zel, I just wanted to let you know that I plan on being the Luna of this pack, and your days as Kosta&#039;s mate and luna are numbered. I have decided that I deserve to be luna of the third strongest pack in the nation. I mean why should you get everything and I get stuck with nothing?&quot; Khalis says.<br /> <br /> Is this bimbo serious? I just sat there staring at her for a few seconds. Not much shocks me, but this is something else. I knew Khalis was selfish, but this is on a whole other level. There have been rumors about Khalis sleeping with mated males, but I always gave her the benefit of the doubt. I never thought we would be having this kind of conversation. We have been friends since elementary school. Her father and brothers are elite warriors in my father&#039;s pack. She was with me when Kosta declared we were mates. She even encouraged me to go with him when he begged me and my father to let me come to his pack with him before I turned 18. She moved to this pack with me, hoping to meet her own mate. She knows Kosta is my fated mate. The moon goddess chose for him me. We both have known Kosta for most of our lives. Kosta is one of my brother&#039;s best friends. I keep thinking about everything we have done together and now this bimbo is sitting in my office telling me she plans to take my mate. I&#039;m really speechless. This is a new low, even for her.<br /> <br /> &quot;Just so that I am clear, what exactly do you mean that you want my goddess-given mate and title,&quot; I asked.<br /> <br /> &quot;I mean exactly what I said. I want Kosta. I want to be his luna and I am going to make that happen. I&#039;ve already started the process. I deserve to be a luna.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;So you just want to come in here and tell me that you want my mate? What about your own mate? Have you thought about that? If the goddess meant for you to be a luna, you would have been fated to an alpha.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I waited for my mate. I gave the goddess a chance to do right by me. She gave everyone around me an Alpha. My sister got one, my little ugly cousin got one and even you got one, but what did I get? I got a lowly elite warrior as a mate.&quot; She spat.<br /> <br /> &quot;How can you speak like that about elite warriors? Your father and your brother are elite warriors.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I know, and I deserve better than that. I deserve to be a luna. I deserve to have people respect me and cater to me.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Well, obviously the goddess did not agree with you,&quot; I said. &quot;Just to clarify, you&#039;re saying that even though you found your destined mate, the one that was made specifically for you by the goddess, you&#039;re still interested in my mate? You are unbelievable. What is wrong with you?&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;It&#039;s simple. I&#039;m not meant to be the mate of a warrior. I am meant to be a luna. The moon goddess got it wrong and I am correcting her mistake. As soon as I scented my fated mate and realized he was a warrior, I rejected him and he accepted my rejection. Good riddance.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;So you think you know better than the goddess?&quot; I asked.<br /> <br /> I am still somewhat shocked. I have a hard time reconciling this cold-blooded bimbo to the person that has been my best friend for over a decade.<br /> <br /> &quot;Zell, I told you a long time ago not to trust her. She has always been this person. She just pretended with you.&quot; Sapphire said.<br /> <br /> &quot;This isn&#039;t personal, Zell. It&#039;s simple since the moon goddess did not give me an alpha, I&#039;m going to take one.&quot;<br /> <br /> This bimbo is sitting here calmly telling me she is going to take my mate from me like we are talking about going shopping. She actually thinks this is ok. How could I have been so blind for so long? Everyone tried to warn me about her, but she was my only friend and I just didn&#039;t want to believe that about her. I convinced myself that the others were just jealous of her.<br /> <br /> &quot;Do you really think it is ok to try to break your best friend&#039;s mate bond?&quot; I say.<br /> <br /> &quot;Oh Honey, I&#039;m not going to try. I&#039;m going to do it. He will be mine. I&#039;m just giving you the courtesy of walking away with your dignity. You might as well start making arrangements for yourself because once I am the luna, there is no way that I will let you remain in my pack. He may keep some tender feelings for you. After all, you are fated.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;You got one thing right; Kosta and I are fated. You are not the first she-wolf to try to break our mate bond and since he is an alpha, I&#039;m sure you won&#039;t be the last. I will tell you what I tell them all, If you can get Kosta to cheat on our bond, you can have him. If he can do that, then he is not the man I have believed him to be and wouldn&#039;t deserve me. You would be welcome to him. Just remember, it is because of me and my family that this pack is ranked third. All of that goes with me, but you would be more than welcome to whatever is left.&quot; I say.<br /> <br /> &quot;It&#039;s not an if, it&#039;s a when it happens. And when you leave, Kosta will still be the alpha of this pack. You will just be the ex-luna of the pack. I will be the luna.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;That&#039;s where you are wrong. I am alpha born; a pure-blooded alpha. If I leave, I will still be an alpha and you will still be that bimbo on the side. Some males may be dumb enough to sleep with you, but I have not seen any of the mate men you&#039;ve been accused of leaving their mates for you. Even the ones who got rejected didn&#039;t choose to be with you. Now I suggest you leave my office while I am still being nice or else you will find out why I am feared by others. And if you are successful, don&#039;t think for a minute that my family will let either of you go.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I will leave for now. Enjoy this office while it is still yours. Your arrogance will be your downfall. Why should I fear you or your family? They have not even been around since your luna ceremony. I&#039;ll give you 1 week to make arrangements for yourself. In 7 days, all of this will be mine and you will be out. I will break you and completely disgrace you. I have to thank you for working so hard to build this pack up for me to take over. I will be sure to enjoy the fruit of your labor. I and my children will enjoy this. I am glad he listened to me early on when I told him to wait to have children so you could live your life first. I had to set the groundwork just in case. Now it&#039;s time for you to go before you give him an heir.&quot; Khalis says and walks out of my office like nothing happened.<br /> <br /> She has caused a lot of chaos since coming to this pack. I just didn&#039;t realize her character before now. I thought she was misunderstood. Now I know I was just naïve. It appears that I was the only person blind to her true nature.<br /> <br /> I spent the rest of the day working on pack security and setting up meetings. There are a few alphas wanting an alliance with us. Kosta and I have become quite the power couple in the werewolf society. Since we took over as alpha and luna, the pack and the businesses have grown tremendously. I put my heart and soul into making our pack the best. I got an early start. I graduated from high school when I was 16 and went to university. I graduated with a business degree at 20. Kosta has let me take the lead in our businesses. He knows that beast at negotiation and a whiz at growing businesses. I have acquired several new companies since working in the pack business. Kosta is still the CEO, but I am the COO of the company. I broker the deals and then call Kosta in to close the deal. Most alphas in our circle are jealous of Kosta because he has me at his side. Kosta used to be proud of me and what I did for the pack, but lately he has been resisting the changes I have been making and trying to take over more of the daily operations of the pack. He can&#039;t take it all because I am the sole financial backing of the pack and the businesses.<br /> <br /> I am known in werewolf society as a child prodigy, but don&#039;t get it twisted, I am not all brains. I can be very deadly when needed. I train every day. I am one of the strongest wolves alive, although I keep that hidden. I can be ruthless, but fair. I know that I am the total package. I am athletic, tall with curves in the right places. I&#039;ve never been one to compete with other she-wolves. I thought I was happy and had a good life. I thought Khalis was happy. We used to talk about finding our fated mates. I just can&#039;t understand how or why Khalis would try to come between me and my mate. I wish I could believe that my bond was safe and solid, but Sapphire is right about Kosta acting suspiciously lately. Kosta has been questioning me a lot lately. It&#039;s like he woke up a different person one day. He suddenly lost trust in me, but I have never given him a reason to doubt me. I have found him outside of my door listening to business phone calls, which is crazy because he could just walk in at any time and join the conversation. I have never hidden anything I was doing from him. The worse thing is that our life is now nonexistent. Kosta is always too busy or too tired. His behavior has led me to believe that he is not attracted to me anymore. He had the nerve to ask me why I have been trying so hard to seduce him lately. Like he didn&#039;t just stop making love to me cold turkey all of a sudden. We went from making love every day, sometime multiple times a day, to nothing in over a month. Seems like he should have been worried if I didn&#039;t try to seduce him. I don&#039;t know any mated pair that has gone this long without being intimate with each other. I don&#039;t know what the issue is. If we were not marked, I would wonder if he was cheating, but I know he is not. I would have felt it. Why did all of this suddenly become so hard? Why do I even need to seduce my goddess-given mate? It was never supposed to be this way. At least not yet. I&#039;m only 20 years old. Much too young to be going through a dry spell while mated.<br /> <br /> I got so desperate at one time I asked our friends what was going on with him. Kosta tells his beta and gamma everything. I figured if there was a problem, they would tell me and I could fix it, but they just said that he was under a lot of stress. What exactly does he have to stress about? The pack is doing better than it has been in years. In half a year, the pack will be self-sufficient again and won&#039;t need to depend on my finances to keep it afloat. I have everything set in motion for the pack to have more disposable cash and residual income. I have a feeling this has Khalis written all over it. Kosta appears to have fallen in line with her already. Maybe this was their plan all along. Kosta needed me to get his pack back on track and now that they are almost completely independent, they don&#039;t need me anymore. If that&#039;s the case, they are in for a rude awakening. My six-month plan depends on me closing several more deals. All of these deals are allies with my father, uncle, and grandfather. They will not work with Kosta if our bond falls apart. He would erase everything that I have done over the past three years. Well, that would be his problem.<br /> <br /> I got so caught up in working and thinking; I didn&#039;t realize I worked up to dinner time. No one called me for lunch. In fact, no one called me for dinner. That is strange. One of the omegas usually checks on me when I am working too much and makes sure I am eating. I guess everyone is following Kosta. Since he has not been showing me any care, they are not either. That really hurts. I sacrificed a lot for this pack. I thought they cared more than this for me. I should just go back to my room. I don&#039;t know if I want to be around this pack right now, especially if they could turn their backs on me this quickly. Were they all just using me for my family&#039;s wealth?<br /> <br /> &quot;We need to eat Zell. Remember, we are eating for our pup as well. Don&#039;t let them win. We are better than this. If they show us they don&#039;t want us here, we will leave. Remember, we are alpha born. We will rise above this. We will go back to where we are celebrated. If they turn against us, they don&#039;t deserve us. We will sit back and let them destroy themselves.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;You are right Sapphire. Let&#039;s go eat. Our pup needs sustenance.&quot;<br /> <br /> I went and cleaned myself up and walked to the dining room. As soon as I walked through the door, all the talking stopped. The whole place went silent. As I walked all the way in, I saw why everyone went silent. Khalis was sitting in my seat, putting food on Kosta&#039;s plate like she is the luna. When she saw me, she just smirked and kept doing what she was doing. Kosta just keep eating like I was not standing there. Sapphire stared, pushing forward. She wanted blood. I did too, but I have to think about our pup.<br /> <br /> &quot;What is going on, Kosta? Why is she sitting in my seat feeding you?&quot; I growled.<br /> <br /> &quot;I meant no harm, Zell. You were busy, so I decided to take care of Kosta for you. Someone needs to care for him while you are caring for other things. &quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I was speaking to my mate, not his bimbo on the side.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;You were not here for your mate, so I have been taking care of his needs.&quot;<br /> <br /> Sapphire pushed forward and growled loudly. Everyone in the room bowed their neck to her.<br /> <br /> &quot;I could kill you in less than 30 seconds, Khalis. I would advise you not to keep crossing my line and you will find yourself very dead. You obviously have forgotten who I am. Don&#039;t make me remind you what my family name is,&quot; Sapphire said.<br /> <br /> I regained control and looked at Kosta. He didn&#039;t even appear to be concerned. He didn&#039;t show an ounce of regret or remorse. That took a little of the fight out of me. Khalis can only do what Kosta allows her to do.<br /> <br /> &quot;Kosta, I asked you a question. What is going on?&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;As Khalis said, you were busy, so she came to do your job for you. If you spent more time catering to me, your mate, and less time working or whatever you are doing, Khalis wouldn&#039;t have to step in and take care of my needs.&quot; Kosta said.<br /> <br /> I and every pack member gasped. I could not believe he openly disrespected me like that after everything I have done for him and this pack. I did all of that for him. This ungrateful hip.<br /> <br /> &quot;So now I&#039;m working too much, making your pack financially secure? You were not complaining when the pack was bankrupted and I worked day and night just so you could feed the pack another day. I was working too hard then. It&#039;s only now that you think the pack is out of the woods that I am working too hard. Now that everyone is comfortable and not at risk of starving, you want to change. Ok, I see who you are now. So instead of appreciating the sacrifices I made for us and the pack, you are sitting here with your bimbo, enjoying the feast that my hard work made possible. I am glad I finally understand where your priorities lie. Trust me, I will never make the same mistake twice.&quot; I said and walked away.<br /> <br /> I need to get out of here before I wolf out and kill one of them. After tonight, Khalis can have him. He is not the male I thought he was. I refuse to fight for someone who can spit on all the effort I put into making him great.<br /> <br /> &quot;Don&#039;t walk away from me, Zell,&quot; Kosta yelled.<br /> <br /> &quot;Why not? You don&#039;t need me. You have Khalis here to take care of all your needs. She is welcome to you. I hope you all will be very happy together. As for me, I&#039;m done. Good luck to you and this pack. I hope you can handle the fallout for you and your bimbo&#039;s actions.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Mind how you talk to me, Zell. I may be your mate, but I am still the alpha. As a matter of fact, as of right now, I am stripping you of all of your luna privileges.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Alpha, what are you doing?&quot; Beta James asked<br /> <br /> &quot;Mind your business Beta. This is my pack.&quot; Kosta says.<br /> <br /> &quot;Yes, and as your beta and friend, it is my job to tell you when you are making a mistake. Alpha, you are dangerously close to crossing the line of no return. Let&#039;s all calm down and discuss this later.&quot; Beta James said.<br /> <br /> &quot;Beta, my word stands. Zel, until you learn to respect me as your alpha, you can forget about representing this pack in any aspect. I will be instructing the security team to restrict all of your access. You are no longer the COO of our businesses. As of now, you are just a regular pact member with no power.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;First of all Alpha.&quot; I spat. &quot;Respect is earned. While you are trying to throw your weight around, you can have the luna title back. I no longer want it. As for the business, have you forgotten that I own 51% of every business we have? I also provide 60% of the pack budget from my personal accounts. So while you can restrict my duties as Luna, you cannot touch the business, but I&#039;ll do you a solid. You can buy me out of the business and I will withdraw all of my personal finances from the pack.&quot;<br /> <br /> I can see that he had forgotten how dependent his pack was on me, but oh well. He made his bed. Now he and his bimbo can lie in it.<br /> <br /> &quot;Oh, and Alpha, if you try to strong-arm me, I will have to call in the full loan that I gave this pack when we mated. Remember, we signed a contract for the loan. You have only paid me a small portion of the loan and I have not pushed the issue, but the contract is legal and binding. Don&#039;t push me, Kosta. You, of all people, know how ruthless I can be if pushed.&quot;<br /> <br /> I walked off again and made it as far as the stairs. I realized that I could not stay in my current room anymore. There is no way on this goddess-green earth that I want to be in a room with Kosta. Not that he has really shared it with me lately. Now I know why. Khalis has been feeding him and he has been eating it up. They both miscalculated. They thought I would be leaving here with nothing. The jokes on them. I may have been in love, but there is no love in business. I may have put my all into saving this pack and making it independently wealthy, but my parents did not raise a fool and I protected my finances. I invested millions in this company and pack. Did he really think I would protect my money? Does he not remember the prenup my father made him sign since I was a minor when he brought me to this pack? He never gained control over my finances.<br /> <br /> Khalis just showed her hand. After what I just saw, she has a right to be confident. Kosta has completely changed. He is not the man that I mated. He is not the boy that I followed around when I was younger. I don&#039;t know what happened or when he changed. Maybe this is who he really is and, like with Khalis, I just never saw his true self. He must have hidden it from my father and brother as well. There is no way they would have let me come here when I was 17 if they knew this was how he would end up treating me. I can see now that it is over between Kosta and me. I need to start planning my exit. I pulled up my computer and moved all of my finances from the pack accounts. I closed all the joint accounts I had with Kosta. It was mostly my money that financed them. I left the ones that he financed in his name. I don&#039;t want anything from him at all. After I handle business, I call my brother. I will need his help to leave here safely. Now that Kosta knows that all the money is still tied up with me, I doubt he will let me leave easily. I&#039;m sure he and the bimbo are plotting up something.<br /> <br /> I called my brother and tall him waht happened.<br /> <br /> &quot;So what&#039;s the plan, baby sis?&quot; my brother answered.<br /> <br /> &quot;Well, I have already moved all of my personal money from the pack accounts. They are now responsible for themselves. I&#039;m not sure how that is going to go over. I was covering most of the pack&#039;s budget. Tomorrow, I will contact my attorneys to protect all of my other assets. I also plan to call our allies and let them know that I am no longer associated with the pack. I am erasing everything I&#039;ve done over the past three years. They will need to start over from scratch and rebuild it all on their own. There is no way they will get to enjoy my hard work. No, sir.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Very smart Zell.

Yes 2024-02-18 11:59 active 189 0 409860295033186 🔥🔥 Click to Read 👉🏻👉🏻 “ Does the sinner have any last words to say?”<br /> “ You all will regret this, if I am truly a witch then I curse you all… one day you will regret what you have done.” <br /> Then she turned to look at Logan who was looking at her in amusement like he was watching a show. “ And you! You will one day beg me on your knees, but remember by then it will be too late.”<br /> “ Beg on my knees huh?” chuckled Logan as he tilted his head. “ I will be waiting for that day.” <br /> ————————<br /> Earlier today, Mavis asked Levy to escort her to the mall because she knew that her captor wouldn’t let her go alone, Levy knew this as well and agreed but who would have thought that the entire thing was a trap. <br /> When she returned to the spot where she left Mavis, the entire place was completely ruined Mavis’s sister Lily and Moira —— her mate’s sister were unconscious and Mavis was nowhere to be found and what was even more tragic—— the place had spells cast all over. <br /> So, the blame for making Mavis vanish fell on her head since she was the only witch in the pack. <br /> Levy tried to raise her head but the male behind her pressed his knee harder at the back of her throat making her choke. “ Believe me, Logan.” <br /> Logan didn’t say anything in response to her plea and Levy felt her heart break into another few pieces. If this had been Mavis —— no, if Mavis really killed anyone, Logan would have never questioned her like this, he wouldn’t even allow his enforcer to touch her, yet when it came to her, he was willing to let her get embarrassed like this though she could feel her heart twist like an ice-cold hand has wrapped itself around it. “ Logan——”<br /> “ Shh,” he said finally, his cello-like voice brimming with rage that she could feel literally pulsating in the air. “ You mean to say that you took her out, brought her to a mall that was at an hour&#039;s distance, with magic circles etched at every place where she vanished. And you mean to say that’s not you?”<br /> “ I really have no hand in this——”<br /> “ Levy Taylor, do you take me as a fool?” There was a clink and the enforcer behind her pulled her head up by her hair so that she could see the chilling hatred in Logan’s eyes. Another pang hit what was left of her heart and she trembled, this man… this man was supposed to love her yet he was looking at her with so much disgust that she could feel her gut twist inside her. <br /> Jet black hair and icy blue eyes brimmed with a glow that could both mesmerise and terrified those who locked gazes with him. <br /> Seeing him look at her with so much hatred made Levy choke on a sob as she shouted, “ Why don’t you believe me? I never hurt her, I didn’t… I am not guilty, Logan…please …please, I have never asked for anything from you. For the first time in my life I am asking you for something, trust me please …just a bit.”<br /> She watched his eyes flickered ever so slightly and just as hope bloomed in her heart, his eyes hardened as he glared at her coldly. “ And who do you think you are to ask me anything, Levy?”<br /> ------<br /> Levy felt her heart drop to the deepest pit of her stomach. Why should he believe her? Because she was his mate! The other half of his soul, how can he not trust the other half of his soul and for whom? A girl who meant nothing to him. She wanted to shout and fight for her right but Levy knew that it was useless, Logan never cared about her and even more so now that she was the one who was being charged with the crime of killing the girl whom he had adored for so long. <br /> She bowed her head without saying anything anymore, she knew that no one was going to come to her help. Not even her father who have hated her from the day she gained her consciousness as a young girl, in fact, she was quite sure that he must be quite pleased with the outcome of this trial —— for years, Levy have wondered why her father hated her but now she could no longer care about anything. <br /> She has cared too much, and loved too much this was why she was in this condition. If only she had left the pack after Logan took Mavis as his lover then she wouldn’t be in this situation. <br /> When she said nothing, Logan who was sitting in the main seat of the pack hall like the King of an Empire looked around the hall and asked in a clear-cut voice, “ Does anyone have anything to say in favour of Levy Taylor?” <br /> Just as she expected, no one said a word. Not even her brother, the beta of the pack, he clearly had the power to save her but he didn’t, he didn’t say a word. Levy sucked in a breath and shook her head with a mocking smile what was she even expecting now?<br /> “ Very well, since Levy Taylor could not produce any efficient evidence that she wasn’t guilty of the charges that were placed on her head, I hereby announce her as a sinner of the wolf community.” Then he turned to look at Mavis&#039;s father who was crying pitifully and asked with a delicate voice, “ Elder Hopkins, what punishment would you like to give the sinner? She is the one who killed your daughter, any punishment that you deem fit, please say it out loud.”<br /> “ Alpha, I... I have nothing more to say, one of my daughters died and the other is unconscious, who knows when she will wake up… as an old man I have lost everything… though others would think its cruel, I want that sinner who killed my daughter to pay with her own life. That’s all that I want… I...I don’t want my daughter’s soul to be at unrest because I as her father couldn’t get revenge on her.” <br /> After saying this, he once again succumbed to crying. Everyone watched Elder Hopkins cry until he was out of breath and their hatred for Levy intensified, everyone knew that Elder Hopkins lost his mate and was only hanging on to life for his daughters, how cruel this sinner has to be to take away the only reason he was alive.<br /> “ That’s fair.” Logan nodded sympathetically before turning to Levy, his eyes as cold as ice and his voice devoid of all the warmth that he had for Mavis. “ Does the sinner have any last words to say?”<br /> “I don’t,” gritted out Levy as she glared at Logan, three years he loved this man for three years and had a crush on him ever since she was a child, and this was how he repaid her? “ I just hope that you will never regret this because one day the truth will come to light and then everyone will know how a great alpha killed an innocent female because he was blinded because of his emotions. Fair you say? There is nothing fair about this trail, I wasn’t given a chance to defend myself, I wasn’t even given a chance to carefully explain my situation and the circumstances before I was hauled here. You are one blind prick Logan Alston and I hope you will suffer through the same pain as I am when you will tell the truth, put your feelings on the line and no one will believe you.” <br /> Her words echoed in the silence of the packed hall, as Logan simply cast a glance at her before continuing, “ So, now that the sinner has finished saying her last words we shall commence——”<br /> “ Wait,” An old voice interrupted Logan as the head of all Elders, Elder Abbot raised his hand causing everyone to look at him in surprise. <br /> “ Lord Abbot?” Logan must have been surprised by this outcome because this time his confusion echoed in his voice. “ What&#039;s wrong?”<br /> “I believe that the girl is innocent,” said Lord Abbot as he stood up from his chair where he was seated. <br /> Immediately, a loud uproar issued within the pack hall as Elder Hopkins cried, “ But my lord she was caught at the spot of the murder!”<br /> “ Innocent until proven guilty,” Lord Abbot swept his eyes sharply at Elder Hopkins. “ There is no evidence that proves that she used magic herself to kill your daughter, Hopkins.”<br /> “ Magic circles were drawn all over the place——-”<br /> “ She is not the only witch in this world, with the number of enemies that our Alpha has, it’s given that someone would try to take advantage of the situation.” shot back Lord Abbot. <br /> Levy who has lost all her hope looked at Lord Abbot with tears in her eyes, she never thought that the elder who always behaved so strictly towards her would actually come to her rescue.<br /> Logan who was watching the two elders quibble snapped the armrest of his chair in anger and looked at Lord Abbot. “ My lord do you really want to save this sinner?”<br /> “ I am not saving the sinner, I am saving your pride, Alpha,” answered Lord Abbot with ease. “ If the information that you killed a female without a fair trial gets out then I am afraid the council will not sit back.” <br /> “ Thank the Lord for his grace sinner, that you have been granted amnesty. I will not kill you today——”<br /> “Alpha!” cried Elder Hopkins. “ My daughter..how will she rest at ease knowing that her murderer is still roaming free?”<br /> “ Who said that the sinner will roam free?” said Logan abruptly causing Levy to look at him in surprise. Her gaze met with his blank one like he wasn’t even there and silently pleaded to him, she hoped that he would let her go..maybe even banishing from the pack was something she was alright with, after she was banished she will look for another rogue wolf and maybe start her life over. <br /> But maybe Logan didn’t want her to even have that much happiness after killing her bit by bit as he announced ruthlessly. “ The sinner hasn’t been pardoned yet that’s why she will spend the next seven years until she has repaid all her sins in the frost-gate prison.”<br /> As soon as his words dropped, Levy struggled against the enforcers who were holding her down as she shrieked. “ No, anything but that! You know I will die there before I can even finish these seven years, Logan!” <br /> Frost gate was the most horrible prison that was specially made for the shifters and what made it special was that the wardens there were all humans, who couldn’t care about the shifters who were trapped there… they were tortured, targeted and even used as some sort of toys for the entertainment of the humans. Seven years…. Seven… how was she supposed to stay there for the next seven years. <br /> When Logan didn’t say anything, she turned to her father who was coldly watching the trial as if the person who was being punished unjustly wasn’t his daughter. “ Dad! Dad! You have to believe me that I didn’t do anything… I swear I did not… please save me, I didn’t do anything… I did not murder Mavis, please… please don’t send me there.”<br /> However, her father looked away without even blinking his eyes, like he couldn’t see what was happening…like he didn’t hear her pleading with him. <br /> As the enforcers pulled her up by her chains, she hatefully looked at all the passive onlookers and cursed, “ You all will regret this, if I am truly a witch then I curse you all… one day you will regret what you have done.” Then she turned to look at Logan who was looking at her in amusement like he was watching a show. “ And you! You will one day beg me on your knees, but remember by then it will be too late.”<br /> “ Beg on my knees huh?” chuckled Logan as he tilted his head. “ I will be waiting for that day,” then he waved his hand and motioned the enforcers to take her away.<br /> -----<br /> Levy woke up with a jolt when chilling water was thrown at her, as a wolf shifter she hated cold. Teeth chattering she looked at the female warden who was looking down at her, or at least that was what she thought they were doing since she couldn’t see their faces in the dark like of the prison and with their faces covered in a black veil. <br /> “ Ah what a shame, she woke up … I was going to use my latest shock stick on her.” said the woman on the left as she raised her brand new stick. “ It would have given a dramatic effect, water + electricity = boom!” <br /> “ Who says you cannot do that anymore?” said the one on the right with an amused chuckle. “It&#039;s not like she can rush off and complain to her mommy can she?”<br /> Both of the women laughed out loud at the poor joke, their laughter reverberating in the dark prison. Levy stiffened as she watched the woman with the shock stick coming close to her, her clothes were dripping with water and if she got electrocuted then she might not even make it out alive tonight. <br /> “ Ah, girly … don’t be afraid, we won’t kill you yet,” as if the woman who was standing behind had read her mind, she immediately coaxed her in a soothing voice. “ Not yet at least, because if we do then wouldn’t be it a waste for us? Is our new toy getting destroyed on the first day of its arrival? No, no that can’t happen.”<br /> “ That’s right, don’t worry. I will be very gentle with you,” cooed the woman with the shock stick as she stabbed it on Levy’s side. <br /> As the nerve-jolting current rode her body, Levy jerked and tried to run but she couldn’t… she was bounded to the wall with chains that stopped her from moving. “ No,…please let me go….”<br /> “ Ah poor girl wants to leave?” said the woman with a shock stick as she kept stabbing her. “ Go, you can of course go…if you can make out of this prison alive for the next seven years.” <br /> As she stabbed the stick once again, Levy realised her horrifying reality. She was not going to survive in this inferno.<br /> ------ <br /> Seven years later <br /> “Levy Harlow,” a female voice called out as the owner of the voice stormed over in her direction. She stared at the twisted bodies that were lying next to Levy’s feet and clicked her tongue before raising her hand and slapping her hard. “ You survived again huh? I can’t believe that you survived again,” she surveyed Levy carefully as she looked up and down on the latter’s body and spat on Levy’s feet. “ You really are the worst prisoner here, aren’t you? Seven years of torture, blinded in one eye and mana core almost broken, yet you still make out of these marathons alive, how? A blind bi*ch like you should have been the first to be eliminated, should she not be?”<br /> The marathon that the female warden spoke of was not the simple ‘ you run and win’ kind of marathon at all—— no, it was the worst nightmare of all the prisoners living in the frost gate prison. A special entertainment activity that was planned by the humans, every once a month, a marathon will be arranged by the higher-ups of the prison, the only difference, the prisoners will be handed weapons.<br /> The rules were simple, the one who took down most of their competitors and reached the finishing line will be the winner and Levy has been winning this marathon for several years. Not because she wanted to live but because she simply liked making her female wardens lose all the money they have betted. <br /> It was because of them that she lost one of her eyes, a day before the marathon, they tortured her bad enough in the hope that she will lose. If not for them, she would have never lost her eye that day —— though Levy did not regret it, at least she was able to get away with her life, if not she wouldn’t be standing here. <br /> She threw the knife on the ground causing the warden to yelp. “ You should have known better than to wage on someone else, miss.” Before walking away out from the ground the human female rushing after her, hot on her heels. “ You think that just because you are getting out tomorrow, you can act all arrogant, do you?” Then with a contemptuous titter, she sneered. “ But so what? Where are you going to go? Have you forgotten? Your mate sent the word that he wanted you dead, even your family never cared about you… what are you acting smug for?”<br /> Five years ago, Logan did send a letter that said that he wanted to see her dead body, asking if she was dead. And since the prison was all about mental and physical torture, the wardens of her prison cell thought it was a good idea to make her read that letter, and she did —— her heart once again felt like it was being hammered with an iron nail sticking on it and her wolf —— God, her wolf, she was so shocked that she hid deep inside Levy’s inside, it has been five years and Levy hasn’t heard anything from her wolf.<br /> But now that seven years have passed, that letter no longer had any effect on her. She was a woman who died every night and lived every day, the things that she has gone through were not something just anyone could go through, so why would she let the words of the man who no longer meant anything to her have any effect on her? <br /> All right, she was lying —— Logan still held a small place in her heart but the anger and hatred she had for him had long diminished her feelings for him.<br /> “ I have heard it million times already,” said Levy in a flat voice as she was shepherded to the prison for one last time and was chained to the same wall where she had been chained for so many years. “ Try something new,” and when she watched the prison warden crack her whip on the floor she smiled. “ Do your worst.”<br /> Because now only pain was something that told her that she was alive and not a shell without a soul.<br /> -----<br /> The next morning Levy woke up with a moan as she felt the sting of the whip all over her body, she looked over at the small window and saw the sky —— hah, any second now, she will be free. As if God had heard her words, the magical door of her prison was opened and the two wardens who has been ‘taking care’ of her all these years, stepped in… now Levy was very familiar with them and knew that beneath that black veil they were hiding their scowls of disapproval. <br /> For seven years they tried to kill her of course they would be upset now that she made out of the ordeal alive, right?<br /> One of them pulled out the key of their pockets and unlocked the chains that bound Levy, once she was freed of the restrains, she pointed her hand to her neck so that the woman could take off the shifter-resistant collar, it was supposed to be used to suppress a shifter in case they went against their wardens and the humans in the facility. The woman pulled a long face before unlocking the collar as well, once it was off, Levy rubbed her wrists and ankles. <br /> God, she forgot how relieving it felt without the collar on her neck. <br /> “ You cannot harm us while you are on the grounds of the prison, remember that.” The warden reminded her and Levy hummed, she knew that she couldn’t do that or else her sentence would be increased by another month. Because of this rule, the wardens of the prison wore thick veils to cover their faces but it was of no issue with Levy. Now that she was out of the prison, she will be a rogue wolf and a rogue can take her revenge anytime. <br /> That was what she thought but as she stepped out of the prison, her gaze fell on a familiar figure. One that she both hated and loved, standing in front of the prison was none other than her mate and tormentor—— Logan.

No 2024-02-18 11:59 active 189 0 706269831696225 Mr Billionaires Secret Baby I blinked several times refusing to believe the scene unfolding before my own eyes. Was I seeing things? Had my mind been playing tricks on me? My doubts faded seeing as the longer I stared at the horror in front of me, the more of a reality it had become.<br /> The excitement that I felt rushing over to the highest floor of this building began to dissipate. The papers I held in my hand slowly began to drop in defeat at my side.<br /> “Congratulations! You’re pregnant.” The doctor’s congratulations gradually disappeared only to be replaced by the sound of my crashing, aching heart pounded deafeningly within my ears. My blood, sizzling with anger yet rancid with pain, coursed through my veins as my vision began to cloud up with unshed tears at what had been witnessing.<br /> The scantily dressed red head that I had known all too well had been closely pressed against the chest of my husband of six months as he held her in his embrace. I watched in mortification as he stared down at her in yearning and glee at her return. His ex that jilted him at the alter!<br /> The glass of his office door spared no concealment of their actions allowing me to view in full strife.<br /> I should have know that this would happen. That Dante Crawford could love none but himself and his runaway ex- bride.<br /> Blinking away the burning tears from my eyes, I took in a breath despite it being difficult to overlook the compressed feeling in my chest. I pushed open the door determined to break this little scene apart. My one hand clutched my newly found information at my side while the other cleared the way for me to enter.<br /> The nerve of both of them. Neither one of them appeared to be remotely ashamed especially my dear husband but why should he? This was all a contract to him anyways. The clauses of which he could easily violate.<br /> “What on earth is going on in here?” I managed to illicit the right amount of rancor and anger without letting my hurt slip through the cracks.<br /> “Ahh, Sophia, I was meaning to speak to you about this but lucky you’ve arrived in time.” Dante spoke as casually as he could and not like I actually deserved a genuine explanation of what the hell was going on.<br /> I raised a confused brow at him urging him to speak further in hopes that I would receive some clarity.<br /> “I want a divorce.” For a moment I thought that I had misheard him, that those words were a figment of my imagination but it echoed loud and clear through the air.<br /> “A divorce?” I asked, dumbfounded and caught entirely off guard. My gaze darted at the minimal space between Pheobe and him.<br /> I thought he hated Pheobe after what she had done to him. After all the backlash he had to face and the wrath of his father that push him in to this contract, surely it was enough to resent the person who caused this uproar but it would seem that I was wrong.<br /> Pheobe moved from his tight embrace but just enough so that she could place a supporting hand on his blazer clad bicep showing of her candy red nails.<br /> “Pheobe and I are getting back together. She explained a few things and I’ve decided to forgive her.” Dante explained as the woman beside him tried to contain a smug little grin.<br /> I tore my eyes away from her and looked to him. “But we are married.” I reminded him to which he scoffed.<br /> “Only because you trapped me into marrying you.” I stared at him in disbelief. This cold demeanour was not like him but obviously he would believe that I had something to do with the scandal that had us marrying in the first place.<br /> “Dante, please you must reconsider. Do not make such a rash decision.” I begged clutching the papers in my hand. “I have something to tell you but-“ my eyes darted to Pheobe. “I’d prefer to do it in private.” I prompted not wanting to speak on front of her.<br /> Dante waved his hand through the air dismissing my request. “Whatever it is you have to say you’ll have to say in front of Pheobe.” He responded abruptly and for a fraction of a seconds I couldn’t believe that this was the same man I’d known in the past 6 months.<br /> The man I agreed to marry purely because I had fallen for him. The man who I married to save from being torn apart in a scandal. It was not like we lived as strangers. The information in my hand was proof of it.<br /> He was the father of my unborn child but whatever part of me rushed over here in excitement to tell him had been dead. I was never going to mention such a vital thing to him in front of Pheobe who I couldn’t trust at all.<br /> Besides, judging from his change of heart, Dante would probably want nothing to do with this child considering how enraptured he is by the return of his old flame.<br /> “Well?” Pheobe prompted impatiently as she carassed Dante’s arm. “Spit it out.”<br /> “On second thought, I change my mind.” I muttered bitterly.<br /> “Since everything is settled then, I hope you remove yourself from my house before tomorrow morning. I thank you for your help, Sophia, but I won’t be needing it anymore.” I opened my mouth to say something but he went on. &quot;If you’re going to ask about the agreed settlement amount then know that it will be deposited in to your account before the end of the day. To rectify the situation, divorce papers will be sent to you in a matter of days.” He said with finality in his tone and an inpatient look in his eyes.<br /> I tried to swallow the ball in that had painfully formed on my throat. It was still a shocker to me that all of this was happening in the first place.<br /> “Dante, please. You can’t do this to me. Not now and not like this.” I begged, my lower lip quivering but I refuse to let my eyes shed tears in front of these two.<br /> Pheobe stepped forward now. “You heard what he said. Don’t make him repeat himself. Get your stuff out of the house and leave him alone. You’ve trapped him in a marriage he never wanted and now he’s free.” She emphasised the last word and my nostril flared itching to tell her to stay out of this but it was a losing battle.<br /> Dante has clearly made up his mind and I was not going to sit her convincing him otherwise. Especially not with Pheobe gloating by his side.<br /> I hid the papers at my side and merely nodded before turning around and leaving. What started out as a seemingly exciting day turned out to be my nightmare. I loved Dante from the time I began working as his personal assistant three years ago to having shared a life with him for the past half a dozen months. This was not the Dante I knew but perhaps I never really knew him to begin with.<br /> The little blob in my stomach was all I had now.<br /> As I stormed out of the building, all I could think about was the bitter, conniving way that Pheobe had glared at me. I was never one to scare easily but it was rare for someone to look at me with such evil displayed blatantly on their face.<br /> After wondering around the city for who knows how long, I finally mustered up the courage to go back to the house I once considered my home forever. The home that I shared so eagerly with my soon- to- be ex- husband.<br /> The car that carried me to the place I would soon depart from was one assigned for my own personal use by Dante. Jeffrey, my assigned chauffer, knew that something was horribly wrong but he never dared to ask. Aside from small glances through his rear- view mirror, he merely focused on the road and wordlessly carried us back to the house so I could retrieve my things.<br /> My head rested against the cool leather seat as I replayed the scene of this morning over and over in my head. I still couldn’t believe that this was happening. That Dante would do such a thing after all that we had shared as a married couple. Of course, we were not married under normal circumstances but we had shared more than stranger would dare to share. Dante loved to blame me for the scandal that lead to our marriage but I had nothing to do with it.<br /> A pain pierced my chest as I willed myself to make peace with all that was happening but I couldn’t. I loved Dante more than anything in the world and just this morning I couldn’t stop envisioning the life that we were about to have with the blessing of a child coming our way but it was a life I would have to live alone.<br /> The car approached the large black gates and the warm feeling of home no longer lingered. Jeffrey steered us down the open gates and on to the paved driveway until we came to a complete halt in front of the large mansion. I undid my seat belt while Jeffrey held the door open for me and just as I stepped out and squinted my eyes from the onslaught of the sun above, my eyes focussed on the mess that was in front of me.<br /> There stood Pheobe at the open entrance of the house with an array of my possessions in her grasp. One hand held the items whilst her other hand grabbed greedily at the pile before launching it out and over the front steps.<br /> Anger bubbled within me at the audacity and sheer bitterness of this woman. She had Dante. She had won. Couldn’t she see it? There was no need for her to humiliate me any further yet here she was.<br /> “Ah, if it isn’t the star of our show. I’ve been waiting for you. I thought what better of a farewell gift to offer you than a helping hand to send you on your way.&quot; She mocked as she tossed the last of my clothes in to the air.<br /> “It would have been better if I hadn’t seen your face at all.” I retorted but she grinned gleefully at my reaction.<br /> I was happy that Jeffrey had left and that there was no one in sight or else I would have felt even more humiliated than I already had been.<br /> My legs moved through the sea of my things on the lawn which I didn’t care to gather just yet. When I approached the doorway, Pheobe blocked my path.<br /> “Where do you think you’re going?” She raised a brow at me like she was the owner of this house.<br /> I glared at her resisting the urge to scratch her face with my slightly long nails. “To gather my things and leave so I do not have to suffer another day or seeing your face.&quot; The words squeezed themselves through clenched teeth and her nostril twitched.<br /> “That won’t be necessary, dear sister.” She said in a sweet fake tone when I knew she took me as anything but. After all, we were only step- sisters. “I already took the liberty of leaving all your things at your feet.” She motioned to my thrown out clothes.<br /> “Get out of my way right now, Pheobe.” My voice rose as octave but her face had grown determined.<br /> “The place that you remember no longer exists. This house is now for Dante and I to share and celebrate our endless love. It was always me that he loved. It was and always will be me. You were just dumb enough to believe otherwise. Dante loves me more than anything in the world. It the very reason he is able to toss you out so easily. He would do anything for me.” She gloated and I hated hearing it.<br /> It was like stingy, course salt being pressed and rubbed against my open wounds. It burned, stung, and outright wanted to make me scream in pain.<br /> I swallowed the lump that had been forming on my throat before bringing my attention back to the she- devil that stood in front of me.<br /> “That sounds like you’re trying to convince yourself more than me.” I mocked and chuckled enjoying the look that overcame her expression.<br /> “How dare you! Do you think-“ Her words caught at the back of her throat when her devious orbs lowered to my hand.<br /> Shit.<br /> I quickly tried to hide the pregnancy report but it was too late because she had already seen it.<br /> “What do we have here?” I stepped away but her hand had already grasp the papers before she yanked it out of my hold.<br /> “It is nothing that concerns you.” I reached for the papers but she moved away enough for her to read the report.<br /> Pheobe’s eyes had widened the size of saucers before she looked at me over the edge of the report. A whirlwind of emotions crossed her face but her eyes were filled with fury and jealousy.<br /> “It is a good thing that Dante is divorcing you so he wouldn’t have to father the child of another.” She said but her words were weak.<br /> “It is Dante’s child, Pheobe. Just because you refuse to except it-“<br /> “It means nothing. Your child will be born a bastard.” She yelled and I could no longer contain my anger.<br /> As if on its own accord, my hand raised in the air before launching at her until I slapped her. Pheobe yelped but she overcame the shock of what had just happened faster than I expected. A loud growl left her throat before Pheobe pushed me with force too strong for me to recover from.<br /> A scream escaped my lips and my hand reached out to grab on to something, anything, but it was too late. My body tumbled down the steps until I landed on the hard paving with my head hitting the ground first.<br /> Pain shot through my entire body as I tried to regain the air knocked out of me but my head felt like a bounder had just descended upon it. I reached up weakly to cradle my head when but I felt something warm and wet slip down the side of my face. The smell of metal had me scrunching my nose telling me that I was bleeding and there was a lot of it.<br /> I tried to move, to get back on to my feet, but my entire body was numb and motionless, refusing to cooperate with me at all.<br /> “Take this as a warning!” Pheobe muttered in a chilling tone. She was now hovering over me, her eyes laden with hatred. “If you ever show your face here again you will meet even worse consequences.” She warned and just when I thought she took a step away from my limp body to leave, she did something far worse than I could ever imagine.<br /> “Ugh!” Pheobe grunted in her rage. I watched in horror as she pulled her pointed heeled covered foot back before launching it forcefully right in my stomach.<br /> I screamed as the pain shot through my abdomen and I cried out as a thousand thoughts raced through my mind. My hand reached to cradle my stomach but it felt like I was paralyzed.<br /> “I want you to remember this moment. Never forget how weak and at my mercy you are.” She crouched down and I flinched but her hand already balled up tightly in my hair.<br /> “Pheobe, p- please.” I begged not wanting any further harm to be caused to the life within me.<br /> “Just because you’re pregnant doesn’t mean Dante will change his mind. He loves me more than you can even imagine. He doesn’t care about what happens to you or your little bastarrd.” She whispered bitterly through tightly clenched teeth.<br /> She threw me a final scathing look as I lay whimpering in pain before she swung around with a huff. Her heels clinked against the paving as she sauntered back into the house.<br /> I opened mouth to call for help but no sound came out. Suddenly, a wave of cold washed through my body and before I knew it, my vision got blurry until I could not longer keep it open.<br /> The last thing I remember was everything turned black before I, too, succumbed to the darkness.<br /> Everything hurt.<br /> Every time I regained some semblance of consciousness, the throbbing began until it turned in to a pounding within my head. I tried to force my eyes open but to no avail. I knew I was in the hospital by the smell and the incessant beeping from a monitor.<br /> I wanted to look around and demand to know if my unborn baby was okay but no effort of mine was significant and before I could try again, I felt a needle prick the inside of my arm before I fell back in to a deep sleep.<br /> Hours, days, perhaps weeks may have gone by but I couldn’t tell. When I woke up this time, my eyelids opened with great ease allowing me to look at the white walls of the hospital room I had been held in. The fluorescent lighting struck my eye but I blinked a few times until my orbs adjusted to the light.<br /> I did a quick scan of my surroundings. The ward I was in had been a private one seeing as my bed was the only one in here. The monotone coloured curtains were pulled apart giving me a view of stormy grey sky above the bustling city below.<br /> Just then the door opened and emerged a nurse who looked surprised yet relieved to see me awake.<br /> “Morning, Mrs. Crawford.” She greeted me with a warm smile as she reached over to check a folder that I could only assume held all of my information.<br /> I offered her a nod in response not feeling like my voice was going to cooperate with me. She did a few checks on the monitor then nodded in approval to herself before closing the folder and looking at me.<br /> “Is my baby okay? Please, I need to know if everything is fine after what happened.” The words tumbled out of my mouth and sounded foreign, almost high pitched, in my urgency.<br /> “You’ve lost a lot of blood, Mrs Crawford.” I clenched my jaw hating that she kept addressing me by Dante’s name.<br /> I narrowed my eyes at her hating that she didn’t out right answer my question. “Is. My. Baby. Okay?” I uttered each word slowly but with a primal instinct ready to wreak havoc on Pheobe should anything have happened to my baby.<br /> “You need to remain calm. Everything is okay. Your baby is safe and free from any harm but you need to relax.” She said carefully not phased by my almost burst of anger at all.<br /> I took in a deep breath to release the tension from my body and felt a little better knowing that the little life inside of me was safe.<br /> “Are you in any sort of pain?” The nurse queried with concern in her eyes.<br /> “I have a headache but it’s not too bad.” My voice was course. I reached to press my fingers against the bandage wrapped around my forehead and winced as I touched something tender.<br /> “You fell pretty hard. It’s a good thing your head injury was minor. As for your baby, he or she is as healthy as can he. I assure you.” She smiled warmly at me and I felt every ounce of my body relax this time.<br /> “Is there anything else that you would like to know?” She asked and I nodded immediately.<br /> “How long have I been here for and when can I leave?” I needed to know this because she could say anything from a few hours to months and I would believe her.<br /> “Three days. You will be discharged tomorrow after the doctor does a few final checks.” She informed me and I nodded.<br /> After the nurse had left, a tray of food was brought in for me which consisted of a hearty breakfast and a bowl of fruit. I should be starving but I had no appetite at all. In fact, the sight of food had me feeling the need to gag. I did force myself to eat a few pieces of fruit thinking more about the baby than myself.<br /> Once I was out of here, I needed to speak to Dante one more time before I could sign any papers. Maybe if I spoke to him when he was alone and Pheobe was nowhere near him then he would be more open to consider what I was saying.<br /> Ugh, Pheobe.<br /> I found that I felt a newfound hate for her that now was etched with a fierce rage of my own. She was such a wretched women and sought to purposely injure not only me but my baby after discovering I was pregnant. For a split second, I considered the possibility that she might have told Dante about it but then I realised that she would never say anything about it especially if she thought that it would jeopardize her position.<br /> With all the thoughts swirling around my head, I felt my headache get worse. I needed not to think about my predicament right now. Next to the tray of food was the remote for the TV mounted a little too high for comfort. I switched it on and my breath immediately hitched in the back of my throat.<br /> Dante and Pheobe had been glued to each other.<br /> Pheobe clung on to his blazer while Dante had his arm around her lower back. They kissed passionately, smiling against each other’s lips and a sharp pang of pain slit through my heart like a double edged sword.<br /> The cameras flashed violently and both of them waved at the paparazzi with heady grins on their faces. Dante held her close to his side as they headed over to his awaiting car. They paused just before the could get in to share one more lingering kiss for the cameras followed by another one.<br /> All this time there was a small part of me that held on to a tiny shed of hope that maybe, just maybe, Dante had not been as taken with her as Pheobe had made it seem. I thought that I had a shot to fix this, to make him see reason and persuade him to go back to how things were.<br /> But seeing him like that while the cameras flashed hungrily at their public display of affection, I knew that Dante’s mind would not waiver. He had made a choice and that choice was to be with Pheobe.<br /> Sadness ripped through me all over again.<br /> I recalled things in my marriage that I shared with Dante. I put in so much of effort, played the role of a the perfect, virtuous wife, and stayed by his side devotedly all this time. I never gave him a chance to find fault in me and what good did that being? I gained nothing but heartache in return.<br /> I scoffed heavily then felt my eyes burn before warm tears slid down my cheeks.<br /> How could he do such a thing to me. I realised then that there was no speaking sense to him unless I intended looking like a fool.<br /> But, my sweet innocent baby.<br /> I cradled my belly tenderly knowing that there was already a little but sacred life inside. A life that deserved better. I knew that I needed to move on from this, from him. And it was not just for myself, but for my baby. It was the realisation I wished I didn’t have but one that I needed.<br /> After hours of sleeplessness, renewed pain, and fallen tears, I knew what I had to do. The next morning, Without any hesitation, I found Dante’s name on my phone and decided to send him a text ending all of this once and for all.<br /> ‘Please send the divorce papers to me as soon as possible. I will gladly sign it.<br /> -Sophia.’<br /> My finger hovered over the send key but I pressed it before I changed my mind. The second it sent, I felt a little relieved. All that was left was for me to properly gather my belongings and leave for good.<br /> Click to read the whole story of 📖Mr Billionaires Secret Baby📖!

Yes 2024-02-18 11:59 active 189 0 6800711686700949 🔥🔥 Click to Read 👉🏻👉🏻 &quot;let&#039;s get this over. &quot;I, Trevor Monroe, future alpha of Blue Moon pack, reject you as my mate and Luna.&quot;<br /> &quot;Trevor, you don&#039;t deserve me, I Seleste True, Pure Born Gamma, Descendant of Fenroe accept your rejection.&quot;<br /> ******** <br /> As I&#039;m lying here thinking about all of this, Tamaska starts jumping around in my mind. Like literally jumping around. She seems so excited all of a sudden. I look up and see Trevor standing over me, looking at me strangely. At first, he seems happy to see me, then his expression changes. I guess he remembers that we are no longer friends. Meanwhile, Tamaska is still going crazy in my head. Trevor and Tamaska say the one word I never wanted to hear in reference to Trevor. They both yell &quot;mate&quot;. No, this can&#039;t be. I can&#039;t be his mate. This will never work. Now I&#039;m panicking. I can see on his face that he is going to reject me. This is not the way my life is supposed to go. Oh, moon goddess, give me the strength to be strong and not break down.<br /> Trevor just stands there for a minute, then says, &quot;let&#039;s get this over. &quot;I, Trevor Monroe, future alpha of Blue Moon pack, reject you as my mate and Luna.&quot;<br /> As soon as he said those words, I felt a pain like I have never experienced before. It&#039;s like my heart has been ripped apart. Tamaska starts whimpering. Trevor made my wolf cry. Why would he do this?<br /> &quot;Why?&quot; I ask. As much as I hate him seeing me cry, tears are running down her eyes. &quot;Why would you do this to us? Why would you take away our chance to be happy? Do you really hate me that much?&quot;<br /> &quot;It&#039;s not about me hating you, Seleste.&quot; He says, &quot;The mate bond will not let me hate you. I just don&#039;t think you are the right person to be my Luna. You are a good Gamma. Fighting is what you do, but I need someone else lying beside me. Not someone who will undermine me or make me look bad in front of the pack warriors. I just can&#039;t have you as my mate. I don&#039;t want you as my mate.&quot;<br /> I can&#039;t believe my mate is saying this to me. It&#039;s like he really wants to hurt me. He is saying that he prefers someone else over me, his mate. Tamaska has not stopped whimpering. She is so hurt by what our mate is saying. Although I knew this was coming, the pain was unbearable.<br /> &quot;Are you sure this is what you want, Trevor? Do you want to think about this before you make a final decision?&quot; I ask in a whisper.<br /> &quot;Don&#039;t beg Seleste, it&#039;s really not becoming. It should be no surprise that I rejected you. I made it known over this past year that I do not want you in my life. Yes, I am sure. I do not want you as my mate. My rejection stands!&quot; <br /> Did he just say stop begging? The nerve of him. I would never beg anyone to be with me. He wishes I was begging him. How is he going to feel when he finds out that I get a second chance mate while he is stuck without a mate? I don&#039;t need to beg. <br /> &quot;Begging, the last thing I&#039;m doing is begging. I have never begged and trust me; you are the last person I would ever beg to be in my life. Out of respect to your father, I have kept my opinion to myself about you and the way you are acting, but truthfully, Trevor, you are a disappointment. I don&#039;t know what your parents or the pack will do when they find out what you have done, but since this is what you want and since frankly, you don&#039;t deserve me, I Seleste True, Pure Born Gamma, Descendant of Fenroe accept your rejection.&quot; I say and begin to walk away. I need to get away from him. It is taking everything in me to hold Tamaska back. She really wants to kick his butt right now.<br /> &quot;Before you go, I order you not to tell anyone about us being mates,&quot; Trevor says in his alpha voice.<br /> Is he serious right now? Does he really not know that the alpha command does not work on our family? He really is not fit to lead our pack. He obviously did not pay attention in his alpha training, or he would know it is pointless to alpha command me. I will tell who I want to tell. I just look at him in disgust and walk away. As much as I want to break down and cry for hours, I refuse to let him see me cry more than he already has. I hold my head up high and walk away from him. The moon goddess granted me my request. I feel strong and I could keep myself together. At least until I get home. <br /> Once I make it to my house, I run to my mom and cry my eyes out. My mom keeps asking me what&#039;s wrong. My dad comes in and tries to talk to me, but I can&#039;t stop crying enough to talk to them. I can&#039;t say the words. At least not yet. My mom calls Mona to come to be with me and to help calm me down. After crying for about an hour, I&#039;m finally ready to tell my family what happened. Wiping my eyes, I begin the story of my life right now.<br /> &quot;I don&#039;t know where to start. I&#039;ll try to keep it simple. Tamaska was feeling restless, so I went to the clearing the grandmother used to take me to. As I was basking in the moon, Trevor walked into the clearing.&quot; I see my mom and dad stiffen when I mention Trevor&#039;s name. Mona just looks at me with concern. I think she knows what I&#039;m about to tell them.<br /> &quot;It turns out that I am Trevor&#039;s mate,&quot; I say with a sigh.<br /> &quot;I don&#039;t understand,&quot; my dad says, &quot;if you found your mate tonight, why are you crying? Did something happen to you or Trevor?&quot;<br /> &quot;Dad, Trevor rejected me.&quot; My family has the same shocked look I had.<br /> &quot;Are you serious,&quot; my mom and Mona say at the same time.<br /> My dad is steaming mad right now. I&#039;m afraid of what he will do. Trevor hurt his baby. This may not end well for Trevor. When my dad is angry, even the alpha stays out of his way. My mom and I are the only ones that can calm him down.<br /> &quot;Yes, I&#039;m serious. He said that I was not Luna material, and he did not want me as his mate or the right Luna for this pack.&quot; I explained to my family.<br /> &quot;Trevor is an idiot,&quot; Mona says. &quot;There is no one more suited to be our Luna. You have always put this pack first. You have always worked to make us better and stronger.&quot;<br /> &quot;I know. Mona, it hurts so bad. My own mate does not want me. To make matters worse, he tried to alpha command me not to tell anyone that we are mates.&quot;<br /> &quot;What!&quot; my dad yells. &quot;I need to go find this pup and teach him a lesson. No one hurts my baby and lives to talk about. Who does he think he is? He is obviously not fit to lead. He doesn&#039;t even know our pack&#039;s history. Every alpha knows that our family is not subject to any alpha. We serve out of choice, we submit out of respect, not out of compulsion. Our family has served this pack for generations, and I have never questioned that choice until now. This pack is not worth the pain it is causing my baby. First, I&#039;m going to teach that brat a lesson, and then we are transferring to a different pack where they respect and appreciate us.&quot;<br /> &quot;Baby calm down.&quot; My mom says to my dad. &quot;Let&#039;s focus on our baby girl for now. What do you want to do, Seleste?&quot;<br /> &quot;I really don&#039;t know, momma. I don&#039;t want to run like a coward. He is not worth us turning our lives upside down. Besides, I will be traveling a lot after school anyway, so I will rarely see him. And dad, if you hurt Trevor, I may ruin your friendship with Alpha Connor. I&#039;m sure he does not know what Trevor did. And No dad, I don&#039;t want you to tell him. I don&#039;t want anyone to know that Trevor was my mate. Grandmother told me that if one of us gets rejected by our mate, the moon goddess will bless us with a second chance mate. While I don&#039;t want another mate right now, there is still hope for me in the future. Right now, I just want to get through the end of the school year.&quot;<br /> &quot;Ok baby girl, if this is what you want, your father and I will support your decision. But remember, you are my daughter. You will not sit around and mope about that pup. I will give you one full day to cry and be sad, then I want you to pick yourself up and start moving forward. It may still hurt, but it will not destroy you.&quot;<br /> &quot;Thanks, mom,&quot; I say, hugging my parents. &quot;You always know what to say.<br /> &quot;You are my favorite daughter; I will always be there for you in this life and the next.&quot;<br /> &quot;Mom, I&#039;m your only daughter,&quot; I say with a smile.<br /> &quot;And don&#039;t you forget it,&quot; my mom says.<br /> My family spent the rest of the night talking, listening, and wiping my tears. I am so glad I have them in my life. My mom is right. I will not wallow in sadness over Trevor. He has proven that he is not worthy of me. He made his choice and now I am free. I will be able to move on. He thought he would break me, but I won&#039;t break. I go to my room and grab my journal and begin to write. I just let all my hurt, anger, and disappointments release on paper. Writing poetry has always been my outlet. Speaking of poetry, I think I will ask the girls to go to Jazzy&#039;s tomorrow night.<br /> As I lie in bed, I start to feel this burning feeling in my stomach. I feel like someone is clawing my stomach from the inside. I have a high pain tolerance, but this is unbearable. I yell out in pain. My mom and dad run into my room when they hear me cry out. I tell my mom about the pain in my stomach. My dad gets mad all over again. They don&#039;t want to tell me what&#039;s going on. Mom says I&#039;m better not knowing. Tamaska is howling in my head. She has been quiet since Trevor rejected us, but now she is balled up in a knot, howling and crying. I know this has to be about Trevor. He made my wolf cry twice. I will never forgive him for that. She does not deserve to be hurt like this.<br /> &quot;T what&#039;s wrong? What&#039;s happening? Mom and dad will not tell me.&quot;<br /> &quot;It&#039;s mate, he is being intimate with another she-wolf.&quot; Tamaska cries. &quot;He really does not want us, and he is already with someone else. Seleste, I can&#039;t handle this right now. I&#039;m going to take a break from this. I&#039;ll still be with you, but I&#039;m going into a deep sleep, at least for now, don&#039;t worry, I&#039;m not going away and I won&#039;t be down long. I just need a little time.&quot;<br /> &quot;It&#039;s ok T. I love you and I will be here for you.&quot; I sent T a hug. I wish I could hold and pet her right now.<br /> &quot;Mom, Dad, Trevor made my wolf cry twice. I will never forgive him for that. She did not deserve that. T told me what this pain is. There is no coming back from this. He has truly sealed our fates and our future. I am done with him. If I had it in me to hate anyone, I would definitely hate Trevor.&quot;<br /> &quot;Like your mom said, baby girl, we will support you no matter what. You deserve better. I will stay out of it and let you handle it for now, but if he hurts you again, I will have to step in. There is no way I or my wolf can stand by and let someone hurt my pup. I don&#039;t care who it is.&quot;<br /> We all walked out of the house and headed to the venue for the party. <br /> &quot;I would like to thank everyone for being here tonight to celebrate the 18th birthday of the circle of ten, our next generation of the leaders of the pack. I&#039;m sure that together, the ten will continue to move our pack to greater things.&quot; The alpha says. He announces all the mate connections in our group of ten. The pack is so happy for the mates, the alpha can barely get a word in. Finally, the crowd calms down, and the alpha announces Trevor and his fake mate. I look at my dad and shake my head as the alpha speaks. I don&#039;t want my dad to lose it and tell the pack that Trevor rejected me. <br /> &quot;And finally, I would like to announce that my son, your future alpha, has also found his mate, Shana. Show them all some love.&quot; <br /> The crowd goes wild again. Nobody knows that they are a fraud, so they are happy to have what they think is the next alpha and luna.<br /> The alpha goes on to tell the pack about the mating ceremony planned for all the mates that will happen next Saturday on a full moon. The alpha tells all the still unmated wolves to let Beta Vareen know if they find their mates before the ceremony, so they can be included.<br /> The alpha tells us he has one more announcement. Yep, He will be retiring, and Trevor will take over as alpha- There goes the pack. <br /> &quot;As it is our tradition, I will turn it over to Trevor to officially announce the next Beta and Gamma of the pack; Trevor.&quot; Alpha Connor says and steps back to his spot next to the luna. <br /> &quot;Hello everyone,&quot; Trevor says. From the time alpha announced that Trevor will take over, he has been smirking at me.<br /> &quot;I hope you all had a good time tonight. I know I did. The Blue Moon pack knows how to throw a party. Let me start by introducing you all to my mate and your future Luna, Shana Stevens.&quot;<br /> Everyone cheers for their pretend Luna. Trevor is looking at me to see if I react, which I don&#039;t. <br /> &quot;And your next Gamma, Mona True&quot; <br /> I think everyone here is in complete shock. I froze in my spot. Alpha Connor tried to run interference and stop Trevor before he takes this too far, but of course, Trevor didn&#039;t listen. <br /> &quot;Son, what are you doing?&quot; Alpha Connor asked, &quot;Seleste is the next Gamma.&quot;<br /> &quot;No, Dad,&quot; Trevor answers him. &quot;I don&#039;t think Seleste is the right one for the position. Seleste has done nothing but undermine my authority in the pack for the last year. As alpha, I can&#039;t have anyone under me who does not respect my position as head of the pack. I want Mona as my Gamma. I think that is best for the pack.&quot; <br /> &quot;Dad, my mate, and I discussed this. Aside from the fact that Seleste does not respect me or my position, it is common knowledge that Seleste is in love with me. My mate does not feel that Seleste will have her best interest at heart. My mate does not feel safe with Seleste, being in charge of our safety and security. As her mate, I have to put her first and protect her peace of mind. Seleste being here affects her peace negatively and I can&#039;t have that.&quot;<br /> I notice my dad is about to lose control. I need to get to him before things go completely left. To defuse the situation and give Trevor what he wants and hopefully stop this drama, I agree that I don&#039;t need the Gamma title. <br /> &quot;Fine,&quot; I tell Trevor. &quot;Gamma is just a title. I don&#039;t need it. Not having the title does not change who I am. I will still train the warrior and fulfill my other obligations. As far as respecting you Trevor, respect is earned, and up until recently, I thought you deserved my respect. You have shown me over the last couple of days that I was mistaken about you. So, you can keep the Gamma position. I don&#039;t want it. As far as being in love with you. That is laughable. I don&#039;t even like you.&quot; <br /> He actually smirks at me. This fool thinks he has won. He is just sad.<br /> &quot;Well, that is settled. Seleste will not be the next gamma. And since you mentioned training the pact, that&#039;s the other thing. I do not want you training my warriors anymore. Since you are mad that you are not the Luna of this pack, how do I know you won&#039;t influence the warriors against me or continue to undermine my authority?&quot;<br /> So that is his game plan. He wants to withdraw me of all power. Does he really not realize who I am? Everything my family has done for this pack. Now I&#039;m slightly pissed, but I need to try to stay in control so that my father doesn&#039;t kill this fool.<br /> &quot;Are you serious right now, Trevor? I have done nothing but make this pack better. I have spent my life learning and training so that I can strengthen this pack, and you want to take that from me because of your pettiness.&quot; <br /> I let Trevor know that he really does not have the authority to take the training position from me. I train packs under the authority of the council. No Alpha&#039;s word is above that of the council. But since he wants to be petty, I can take my strength, skill, and protection to another pack.<br /> &quot;Save it Seleste, I have made my decision. As of now, you are nothing to this pack. Why don&#039;t you find another pack to train, since you mentioned other packs? We don&#039;t want you here.&quot;<br /> &quot;Gladly,&quot; I tell him. &quot;And when I leave, you will take the full brunt of your decisions and the consequences of what you are doing tonight.&quot;<br /> I am so over these things now. This pack needs my family more than I need this. I can leave and be accepted into any pack in the kingdom, including the royal pack.<br /> Ben and the other warrior begin to speak up for me. That appears to make Trevor even more pissed. Right now, his own father and current alpha is looking at him like he has completely lost his mind and he is standing in front of the pack looking proud. I always thought Trevor was pretty intelligent. Now I think there is something wrong with him. He just will not stop digging himself into a hole. <br /> &quot;See, that&#039;s why I need to restrict Seleste of her power,&quot; Trevor says in anger and frustration. <br /> &quot;The warriors are more loyal to her than they are to me. You all need to respect me. I am the alpha. What I say goes. None of you have my permission to leave. If you choose to leave, you will be rogues. Will you throw everything away just for her?&quot;<br /> I am so proud of my Elite 12 members. We always stand for what is right.<br /> &quot;I don&#039;t know about the others,&quot; Tim said, &quot;But I would rather go, rogue than stay in this pack with you as the alpha. As Gamma Seleste said, respect is earned, and I just lost all that of it I had for you. Sorry, Alpha Connor, I cannot serve your son. I will prepare to leave this pack in the next two hours.&quot; Tim said.

Yes 2024-02-18 11:59 active 189 0 1139868910757845 🔥🔥 Click to Read 👉🏻👉🏻 &quot;let&#039;s get this over. &quot;I, Trevor Monroe, future alpha of Blue Moon pack, reject you as my mate and Luna.&quot;<br /> &quot;Trevor, you don&#039;t deserve me, I Seleste True, Pure Born Gamma, Descendant of Fenroe accept your rejection.&quot;<br /> ******** <br /> As I&#039;m lying here thinking about all of this, Tamaska starts jumping around in my mind. Like literally jumping around. She seems so excited all of a sudden. I look up and see Trevor standing over me, looking at me strangely. At first, he seems happy to see me, then his expression changes. I guess he remembers that we are no longer friends. Meanwhile, Tamaska is still going crazy in my head. Trevor and Tamaska say the one word I never wanted to hear in reference to Trevor. They both yell &quot;mate&quot;. No, this can&#039;t be. I can&#039;t be his mate. This will never work. Now I&#039;m panicking. I can see on his face that he is going to reject me. This is not the way my life is supposed to go. Oh, moon goddess, give me the strength to be strong and not break down.<br /> Trevor just stands there for a minute, then says, &quot;let&#039;s get this over. &quot;I, Trevor Monroe, future alpha of Blue Moon pack, reject you as my mate and Luna.&quot;<br /> As soon as he said those words, I felt a pain like I have never experienced before. It&#039;s like my heart has been ripped apart. Tamaska starts whimpering. Trevor made my wolf cry. Why would he do this?<br /> &quot;Why?&quot; I ask. As much as I hate him seeing me cry, tears are running down her eyes. &quot;Why would you do this to us? Why would you take away our chance to be happy? Do you really hate me that much?&quot;<br /> &quot;It&#039;s not about me hating you, Seleste.&quot; He says, &quot;The mate bond will not let me hate you. I just don&#039;t think you are the right person to be my Luna. You are a good Gamma. Fighting is what you do, but I need someone else lying beside me. Not someone who will undermine me or make me look bad in front of the pack warriors. I just can&#039;t have you as my mate. I don&#039;t want you as my mate.&quot;<br /> I can&#039;t believe my mate is saying this to me. It&#039;s like he really wants to hurt me. He is saying that he prefers someone else over me, his mate. Tamaska has not stopped whimpering. She is so hurt by what our mate is saying. Although I knew this was coming, the pain was unbearable.<br /> &quot;Are you sure this is what you want, Trevor? Do you want to think about this before you make a final decision?&quot; I ask in a whisper.<br /> &quot;Don&#039;t beg Seleste, it&#039;s really not becoming. It should be no surprise that I rejected you. I made it known over this past year that I do not want you in my life. Yes, I am sure. I do not want you as my mate. My rejection stands!&quot; <br /> Did he just say stop begging? The nerve of him. I would never beg anyone to be with me. He wishes I was begging him. How is he going to feel when he finds out that I get a second chance mate while he is stuck without a mate? I don&#039;t need to beg. <br /> &quot;Begging, the last thing I&#039;m doing is begging. I have never begged and trust me; you are the last person I would ever beg to be in my life. Out of respect to your father, I have kept my opinion to myself about you and the way you are acting, but truthfully, Trevor, you are a disappointment. I don&#039;t know what your parents or the pack will do when they find out what you have done, but since this is what you want and since frankly, you don&#039;t deserve me, I Seleste True, Pure Born Gamma, Descendant of Fenroe accept your rejection.&quot; I say and begin to walk away. I need to get away from him. It is taking everything in me to hold Tamaska back. She really wants to kick his butt right now.<br /> &quot;Before you go, I order you not to tell anyone about us being mates,&quot; Trevor says in his alpha voice.<br /> Is he serious right now? Does he really not know that the alpha command does not work on our family? He really is not fit to lead our pack. He obviously did not pay attention in his alpha training, or he would know it is pointless to alpha command me. I will tell who I want to tell. I just look at him in disgust and walk away. As much as I want to break down and cry for hours, I refuse to let him see me cry more than he already has. I hold my head up high and walk away from him. The moon goddess granted me my request. I feel strong and I could keep myself together. At least until I get home. <br /> Once I make it to my house, I run to my mom and cry my eyes out. My mom keeps asking me what&#039;s wrong. My dad comes in and tries to talk to me, but I can&#039;t stop crying enough to talk to them. I can&#039;t say the words. At least not yet. My mom calls Mona to come to be with me and to help calm me down. After crying for about an hour, I&#039;m finally ready to tell my family what happened. Wiping my eyes, I begin the story of my life right now.<br /> &quot;I don&#039;t know where to start. I&#039;ll try to keep it simple. Tamaska was feeling restless, so I went to the clearing the grandmother used to take me to. As I was basking in the moon, Trevor walked into the clearing.&quot; I see my mom and dad stiffen when I mention Trevor&#039;s name. Mona just looks at me with concern. I think she knows what I&#039;m about to tell them.<br /> &quot;It turns out that I am Trevor&#039;s mate,&quot; I say with a sigh.<br /> &quot;I don&#039;t understand,&quot; my dad says, &quot;if you found your mate tonight, why are you crying? Did something happen to you or Trevor?&quot;<br /> &quot;Dad, Trevor rejected me.&quot; My family has the same shocked look I had.<br /> &quot;Are you serious,&quot; my mom and Mona say at the same time.<br /> My dad is steaming mad right now. I&#039;m afraid of what he will do. Trevor hurt his baby. This may not end well for Trevor. When my dad is angry, even the alpha stays out of his way. My mom and I are the only ones that can calm him down.<br /> &quot;Yes, I&#039;m serious. He said that I was not Luna material, and he did not want me as his mate or the right Luna for this pack.&quot; I explained to my family.<br /> &quot;Trevor is an idiot,&quot; Mona says. &quot;There is no one more suited to be our Luna. You have always put this pack first. You have always worked to make us better and stronger.&quot;<br /> &quot;I know. Mona, it hurts so bad. My own mate does not want me. To make matters worse, he tried to alpha command me not to tell anyone that we are mates.&quot;<br /> &quot;What!&quot; my dad yells. &quot;I need to go find this pup and teach him a lesson. No one hurts my baby and lives to talk about. Who does he think he is? He is obviously not fit to lead. He doesn&#039;t even know our pack&#039;s history. Every alpha knows that our family is not subject to any alpha. We serve out of choice, we submit out of respect, not out of compulsion. Our family has served this pack for generations, and I have never questioned that choice until now. This pack is not worth the pain it is causing my baby. First, I&#039;m going to teach that brat a lesson, and then we are transferring to a different pack where they respect and appreciate us.&quot;<br /> &quot;Baby calm down.&quot; My mom says to my dad. &quot;Let&#039;s focus on our baby girl for now. What do you want to do, Seleste?&quot;<br /> &quot;I really don&#039;t know, momma. I don&#039;t want to run like a coward. He is not worth us turning our lives upside down. Besides, I will be traveling a lot after school anyway, so I will rarely see him. And dad, if you hurt Trevor, I may ruin your friendship with Alpha Connor. I&#039;m sure he does not know what Trevor did. And No dad, I don&#039;t want you to tell him. I don&#039;t want anyone to know that Trevor was my mate. Grandmother told me that if one of us gets rejected by our mate, the moon goddess will bless us with a second chance mate. While I don&#039;t want another mate right now, there is still hope for me in the future. Right now, I just want to get through the end of the school year.&quot;<br /> &quot;Ok baby girl, if this is what you want, your father and I will support your decision. But remember, you are my daughter. You will not sit around and mope about that pup. I will give you one full day to cry and be sad, then I want you to pick yourself up and start moving forward. It may still hurt, but it will not destroy you.&quot;<br /> &quot;Thanks, mom,&quot; I say, hugging my parents. &quot;You always know what to say.<br /> &quot;You are my favorite daughter; I will always be there for you in this life and the next.&quot;<br /> &quot;Mom, I&#039;m your only daughter,&quot; I say with a smile.<br /> &quot;And don&#039;t you forget it,&quot; my mom says.<br /> My family spent the rest of the night talking, listening, and wiping my tears. I am so glad I have them in my life. My mom is right. I will not wallow in sadness over Trevor. He has proven that he is not worthy of me. He made his choice and now I am free. I will be able to move on. He thought he would break me, but I won&#039;t break. I go to my room and grab my journal and begin to write. I just let all my hurt, anger, and disappointments release on paper. Writing poetry has always been my outlet. Speaking of poetry, I think I will ask the girls to go to Jazzy&#039;s tomorrow night.<br /> As I lie in bed, I start to feel this burning feeling in my stomach. I feel like someone is clawing my stomach from the inside. I have a high pain tolerance, but this is unbearable. I yell out in pain. My mom and dad run into my room when they hear me cry out. I tell my mom about the pain in my stomach. My dad gets mad all over again. They don&#039;t want to tell me what&#039;s going on. Mom says I&#039;m better not knowing. Tamaska is howling in my head. She has been quiet since Trevor rejected us, but now she is balled up in a knot, howling and crying. I know this has to be about Trevor. He made my wolf cry twice. I will never forgive him for that. She does not deserve to be hurt like this.<br /> &quot;T what&#039;s wrong? What&#039;s happening? Mom and dad will not tell me.&quot;<br /> &quot;It&#039;s mate, he is being intimate with another she-wolf.&quot; Tamaska cries. &quot;He really does not want us, and he is already with someone else. Seleste, I can&#039;t handle this right now. I&#039;m going to take a break from this. I&#039;ll still be with you, but I&#039;m going into a deep sleep, at least for now, don&#039;t worry, I&#039;m not going away and I won&#039;t be down long. I just need a little time.&quot;<br /> &quot;It&#039;s ok T. I love you and I will be here for you.&quot; I sent T a hug. I wish I could hold and pet her right now.<br /> &quot;Mom, Dad, Trevor made my wolf cry twice. I will never forgive him for that. She did not deserve that. T told me what this pain is. There is no coming back from this. He has truly sealed our fates and our future. I am done with him. If I had it in me to hate anyone, I would definitely hate Trevor.&quot;<br /> &quot;Like your mom said, baby girl, we will support you no matter what. You deserve better. I will stay out of it and let you handle it for now, but if he hurts you again, I will have to step in. There is no way I or my wolf can stand by and let someone hurt my pup. I don&#039;t care who it is.&quot;<br /> We all walked out of the house and headed to the venue for the party. <br /> &quot;I would like to thank everyone for being here tonight to celebrate the 18th birthday of the circle of ten, our next generation of the leaders of the pack. I&#039;m sure that together, the ten will continue to move our pack to greater things.&quot; The alpha says. He announces all the mate connections in our group of ten. The pack is so happy for the mates, the alpha can barely get a word in. Finally, the crowd calms down, and the alpha announces Trevor and his fake mate. I look at my dad and shake my head as the alpha speaks. I don&#039;t want my dad to lose it and tell the pack that Trevor rejected me. <br /> &quot;And finally, I would like to announce that my son, your future alpha, has also found his mate, Shana. Show them all some love.&quot; <br /> The crowd goes wild again. Nobody knows that they are a fraud, so they are happy to have what they think is the next alpha and luna.<br /> The alpha goes on to tell the pack about the mating ceremony planned for all the mates that will happen next Saturday on a full moon. The alpha tells all the still unmated wolves to let Beta Vareen know if they find their mates before the ceremony, so they can be included.<br /> The alpha tells us he has one more announcement. Yep, He will be retiring, and Trevor will take over as alpha- There goes the pack. <br /> &quot;As it is our tradition, I will turn it over to Trevor to officially announce the next Beta and Gamma of the pack; Trevor.&quot; Alpha Connor says and steps back to his spot next to the luna. <br /> &quot;Hello everyone,&quot; Trevor says. From the time alpha announced that Trevor will take over, he has been smirking at me.<br /> &quot;I hope you all had a good time tonight. I know I did. The Blue Moon pack knows how to throw a party. Let me start by introducing you all to my mate and your future Luna, Shana Stevens.&quot;<br /> Everyone cheers for their pretend Luna. Trevor is looking at me to see if I react, which I don&#039;t. <br /> &quot;And your next Gamma, Mona True&quot; <br /> I think everyone here is in complete shock. I froze in my spot. Alpha Connor tried to run interference and stop Trevor before he takes this too far, but of course, Trevor didn&#039;t listen. <br /> &quot;Son, what are you doing?&quot; Alpha Connor asked, &quot;Seleste is the next Gamma.&quot;<br /> &quot;No, Dad,&quot; Trevor answers him. &quot;I don&#039;t think Seleste is the right one for the position. Seleste has done nothing but undermine my authority in the pack for the last year. As alpha, I can&#039;t have anyone under me who does not respect my position as head of the pack. I want Mona as my Gamma. I think that is best for the pack.&quot; <br /> &quot;Dad, my mate, and I discussed this. Aside from the fact that Seleste does not respect me or my position, it is common knowledge that Seleste is in love with me. My mate does not feel that Seleste will have her best interest at heart. My mate does not feel safe with Seleste, being in charge of our safety and security. As her mate, I have to put her first and protect her peace of mind. Seleste being here affects her peace negatively and I can&#039;t have that.&quot;<br /> I notice my dad is about to lose control. I need to get to him before things go completely left. To defuse the situation and give Trevor what he wants and hopefully stop this drama, I agree that I don&#039;t need the Gamma title. <br /> &quot;Fine,&quot; I tell Trevor. &quot;Gamma is just a title. I don&#039;t need it. Not having the title does not change who I am. I will still train the warrior and fulfill my other obligations. As far as respecting you Trevor, respect is earned, and up until recently, I thought you deserved my respect. You have shown me over the last couple of days that I was mistaken about you. So, you can keep the Gamma position. I don&#039;t want it. As far as being in love with you. That is laughable. I don&#039;t even like you.&quot; <br /> He actually smirks at me. This fool thinks he has won. He is just sad.<br /> &quot;Well, that is settled. Seleste will not be the next gamma. And since you mentioned training the pact, that&#039;s the other thing. I do not want you training my warriors anymore. Since you are mad that you are not the Luna of this pack, how do I know you won&#039;t influence the warriors against me or continue to undermine my authority?&quot;<br /> So that is his game plan. He wants to withdraw me of all power. Does he really not realize who I am? Everything my family has done for this pack. Now I&#039;m slightly pissed, but I need to try to stay in control so that my father doesn&#039;t kill this fool.<br /> &quot;Are you serious right now, Trevor? I have done nothing but make this pack better. I have spent my life learning and training so that I can strengthen this pack, and you want to take that from me because of your pettiness.&quot; <br /> I let Trevor know that he really does not have the authority to take the training position from me. I train packs under the authority of the council. No Alpha&#039;s word is above that of the council. But since he wants to be petty, I can take my strength, skill, and protection to another pack.<br /> &quot;Save it Seleste, I have made my decision. As of now, you are nothing to this pack. Why don&#039;t you find another pack to train, since you mentioned other packs? We don&#039;t want you here.&quot;<br /> &quot;Gladly,&quot; I tell him. &quot;And when I leave, you will take the full brunt of your decisions and the consequences of what you are doing tonight.&quot;<br /> I am so over these things now. This pack needs my family more than I need this. I can leave and be accepted into any pack in the kingdom, including the royal pack.<br /> Ben and the other warrior begin to speak up for me. That appears to make Trevor even more pissed. Right now, his own father and current alpha is looking at him like he has completely lost his mind and he is standing in front of the pack looking proud. I always thought Trevor was pretty intelligent. Now I think there is something wrong with him. He just will not stop digging himself into a hole. <br /> &quot;See, that&#039;s why I need to restrict Seleste of her power,&quot; Trevor says in anger and frustration. <br /> &quot;The warriors are more loyal to her than they are to me. You all need to respect me. I am the alpha. What I say goes. None of you have my permission to leave. If you choose to leave, you will be rogues. Will you throw everything away just for her?&quot;<br /> I am so proud of my Elite 12 members. We always stand for what is right.<br /> &quot;I don&#039;t know about the others,&quot; Tim said, &quot;But I would rather go, rogue than stay in this pack with you as the alpha. As Gamma Seleste said, respect is earned, and I just lost all that of it I had for you. Sorry, Alpha Connor, I cannot serve your son. I will prepare to leave this pack in the next two hours.&quot; Tim said.
