Instantly, my muscles all revolted against that idea. My entire body was sore, but my core made sure to remind me that it'd taken a beating the night before. I wiped my eyes and sat up, unsure of where I was for a moment. Until I looked around. There were toned and undressed hips all around me. I smiled to myself as I captured the image in my mind for rainy days in my future. Mack, Jones, and Xavier were all tangled in the different blankets they'd brought with them to bed the night before. Earlier that morning, really.<br /> The back of the tour bus was a bedroom, fitted with one massive bed that took up the entire room. The normal tour bus accommodations existed between the bathroom and large bedroom, but no one had volunteered to sleep in their usual bed. They'd each found a way to wrap around me in the big bed and didn't miss the chance to take me once more before we passed out for good.<br /> －－－－－－<br /> Layla<br /> "Oh, yeah! Eat me, Matty!" The woman screaming for my boyfriend was the lead singer of a moderately popular band called The Homewreckers. It was an aptly named band, apparently. Of course, she sounded amazing as she screamed. I always felt like a choking chimpanzee when I came out loud.<br /> I stood in the doorway of The Homewreckers' dressing room and took a deep breath. Unfortunately, it was scented with weed. "Hey, Matthew?"<br /> Matthew, who'd always told me he hated being called Matty, yanked his head out of Miriam Dark's private part and spun around to face me. It was almost comical how fast he spun and how wide his eyes were. He was white collar handsome. His hair was always perfectly cut, his eyebrows were never too long or bushy, and he shaved his face twice a day. He had nice blue eyes and a nice smile. Nice body, nice manhood, nice guy. Well, maybe not a nice guy. After all, his face was covered in another woman's private partl fluids.<br /> "Layla! What are you doing here?" He climbed to his feet and I watched in disgust as he shoved his flaccid manhood back into his nice dress pants. Then, as an afterthought, he wiped his face and stumbled closer to me. "This isn't..."<br /> I rolled my eyes. "It isn't what it looks like? God, Matthew, at least be original."<br /> Miriam took her time closing her legs and gently patted Matthew's shoulder. "Are we done here, Matty? Or do you think you'll be finished soon and want to finish here?"<br /> Laughing, I rolled my shoulders and leveled a hard stare at Matty. "We're done. Whatever we had is over, so feel free to finish playtime with whoever and whatever. I'm on vacation for a few days, so don't call me."<br /> He rushed after me and grabbed my arm. "Wait a second, Layla. I'm sorry. I messed up. Just give me a second to explain."<br /> I yanked my arm free and scowled at him. "Don't touch me."<br /> "Come on, Layla. Don't be like this. Talk to me. I feel terrible." He tried to take my hand again. "Please, baby."<br /> I wasn't going to let him see that I was upset. He didn't deserve that. Instead, I stepped away from him and snarled. "Touch me and I'll break every one of your fingers, Matty. Go and finish sleeping with your client. I believe she's still waiting."<br /> "Jesus. You work for me, Layla! How do you think this is going to go?"<br /> I backed away from him. "I think it's going to go just fine. Like I said, I'm on vacation. Don't call me. Don't message me. Don't think about me. As my ex-boyfriend or my boss."<br /> " Maybe not you, the perfect Layla.You have to accept that." He followed me. "I know that. I shouldn't have started anything with Miriam, but when I'm on the road with the band, it's hard. I miss you and she's there."<br /> My heart hardened and I took a deep breath. "How long have you been sleeping with her?"<br /> He swallowed so hard I saw his Adam's apple bobble. "Come on, Layla. None of this will matter. I'll stop. I'll stop and we can get engaged. You want that, right?"<br /> I gagged. "Ew, Matthew. There's not a chance that I'm getting engaged to you! I'd rather stick my papilla in a truck winch and turn it on."<br /> Miriam sauntered out of her dressing room topless and looked me over. "We've been slept for a year. Matty eats private part like a champ."<br /> A real smile stretched my lips. "Now I know you're full of foolish talk. He might get an climax, but a champ? Hardly. Anyway, enjoy him. I hope him not having a girlfriend doesn't ruin your lady boner."<br /> "Miriam, go back inside! Layla, just stop and talk to me!"<br /> Miriam and I both answered Matthew in unison. <br /> I looked at her and shrugged. "Maybe you're not all bad."<br /> Without waiting for either of them to say anything else, I turned around and walked away, ignoring Matthew as he called my name. Eventually he stopped and I walked faster. I needed to get out of there before I cried. I wasn't about to cry backstage at a music festival. Someone would probably jump out and tit punch me as some anti-crying ritual.<br /> As I walked faster, I couldn't fight the way my eyes filled with tears. No matter how lackluster Matthew was, I'd devoted years of my life to him. I'd just wasted my vacation time on him, too. I thought sneaking out to meet him on the road would be fun and lend some much needed excitement to our relationship. Things hadn't been good...ever...but I'd hoped that we could at least get back to a place where I didn't dread seeing him at work every day.<br /> I wiped at my eyes and felt the mascara I'd coated my eyelashes with earlier. Stupid. I swore and stomped my way farther away from Matthew and the ugly end of our relationship. The image of his hip in the air while he happily ate Miriam Dark's hoo-hah like a pig in slop would forever be burned into my memory.<br /> I couldn't wait to get back home to my apartment and destroy everything of Matthew's that he'd left behind. I needed to update my social media. I didn't do much on it anymore, but I couldn't stand the idea of people thinking I was still with the loser. I'd have to call Grandma. That thought made me want to sob. She hated Matthew, but she liked that I wasn't alone in LA. Knowing I was single again was going to worry her. And if she told Jagger, my older brother, about me being single, Jagger would call and demand to know what'd happened. Then, he would try to fly out and kick Matthew's hip. It was just a mess.<br /> Growling out a frustrated sound, I looked down to make sure I stepped over a big mess of cords. I couldn't believe someone had left the stage like that. It was a hazard. Not to mention, it would be so easy to show if someone tripped over the wrong cord.<br /> I should've been paying attention because when the crowd's wild cheering broke through my self-pitying stupor, I looked up to see how close I'd gotten to the main stage. Unfortunately, a man with a guitar was coming off the stage, looking back at another man behind him. I was moving too fast to stop in time and he wasn't looking. It happened so fast that I didn't even make a sound as I smacked right into the man and felt pain before bouncing off his hard body and going down hard. Those tangled cords.<br /> I heard a deep voice growl above me, but I reached up to feel my forehead and felt something wet. I knew my eyes went as wide as softballs and when I pulled my fingers down and saw red, I groaned. Blood was my kryptonite. My vision darkened and I gagged on my way down.<br /> <br /> Mack<br /> "Well." By the time I realized what was happening, the curvy brunette was flat on the ground. I dropped to my knees next to her and swore when I saw the blood on her forehead. "This is a new form of falling for me."<br /> Xavier squatted on her other side and frowned. "Not really a great time for joking. You knocked her out."<br /> Jones sighed and ran his hands through his hair. "Where'd she come from? Also, maybe look where you're going from now on. You ran the poor thing over. Big time."<br /> I brushed her hair out of her face and had a completely ridiculous moment of feeling like I was staring down at Sleeping Beauty. She was gorgeous. I gently patted her soft cheek. "Ma'am? Hello?"<br /> "Great work. She's jumping right to life." Jones looked over his shoulder. "You've got about thirty seconds to get her on her feet and out of the way before the crowd beats back security and runs back here."<br /> I could hear the commotion he was hearing and ground my teeth. We'd just come off an amazing show. I had planned on going to a bar and getting hammered. Taking care of a Disney princess hadn't been in my plans, but it didn't look like I had an option. I couldn't just leave her on the ground and I didn't know any of the stage hands enough to trust them with an unconscious woman.<br /> "Fine." I stood up and lifted her body over my shoulder. Her head and arms hung limply and bounced off my hip, but I figured it was better for her than getting trampled to death. "Let's get her to our bus and get the medics to check her out. She'll be safe there until she can wake up and go."<br /> Xavier nodded once and charged ahead, clearing a path. He was a giant of a man and no one was dumb enough to stay in his way. They didn't understand what a gentle soul he was. I was thankful for that when they jumped out of our way, though. Especially with a crowd of rabid fans chasing after us.<br /> Jones barked at security to make sure no one followed us out into the artist lot and slammed the heavy metal door shut behind us. He swore and scowled at the door like it was the problem. "What do we even pay security for if they can't keep people away?"<br /> The woman over my shoulder groaned and grabbed my hips. I waited to see if she would say anything else, but she didn't. Her arms fell limp again and I released a breath at not having her scream and freak out while dangling over my shoulder.<br /> "I'll call the medic." Xavier hurried ahead to the bus.<br /> "This puts a damper on my plans." I sighed and glanced over at Jones. "We put on a good show and I was planning on drinking my face off to celebrate."<br /> "The medics are quick. We'll get her taken care of, apologize, and then send her on her way. With the medics, hopefully." He ran his eyes over the full hip over my shoulder. "Too bad you knocked her out before seeing if she wanted to drink with us."<br /> I laughed. "She sure is pretty. I doubt she'll be in a forgiving mood, though. I should've been looking at where I was going."<br /> "Why change now? Forget what I said earlier. We're in our forties. Let's not waste our time. Old dogs and new tricks, you know." He reached the bus before me and opened the door. "You put your guitar down."<br /> I winced. "I'll send a text to Shane as soon as I put her down."<br /> "I'll do it now. They're going to have to chase down whatever fan saw it and took it, probably. I highly doubt it's still sitting where you left it."<br /> I didn't want to think about my baby being in someone else's hands so instead, I focused on the woman in my arms. I climbed the steps and entered the bus, letting the cool AC wash over my overheated skin. The first space on the bus was a living room with four comfortable couches and I eased the unconscious woman down on one of them.<br /> Stretched out on the couch, her curves were even more noticeable. She was wearing tight black jeans and a low-cut top that was black and mostly straps and lace. I didn't get it, but I liked it. It was bad for me to notice her body, but the top curves of her breasts were spilling out of the shirt deliciously.<br /> I forced my eyes to her forehead and frowned. The cut was definitely from my baby. It looked like either a cord or a corner of my guitar had hit her just perfectly to leave a small cut. The skin around the cut didn't look too angry and overall, she looked okay. Besides being unconscious. I ran my hands under the back of her head and felt around to see if I found a lump from her hitting her head on the ground, but there was nothing.<br /> "The medics are tied up at another stage." Xavier growled in frustration and stared down at the woman. "Cut looks fine. Anything along the back of her head?"<br /> I shook my head. "No. She seems fine, honestly."<br /> "I don't like that she passed out." He sat down across from her and rested his elbows on his knees. "Go ahead and shower. I'll watch over her until you're back."<br /> Xavier, Jones, and I had served in the military together. We'd each done enough time to know how to take care of basic medical emergencies and several other things we'd never need in civilian life. It'd been a long time since any of us had to do first-aid in the field, but we could still hold our own.<br /> "Sure. I'll be fast." I winced. "I'm the one who plowed her over. I should be the one that has to explain it."<br /> I showered as fast as possible in the small bus bathroom but I still wasn't fast enough. By the time I shut the water off, I could already hear a husky female voice I didn't recognize ranting away. I wrapped a towel around myself and rushed out to apologize and get her to stop chewing out Jones and Xavier.<br /> What I found wasn't her chewing them out, though. She was pacing back and forth in front of where they sat on their own couches with her hands on her hips and fury on her face. She wasn't angry at us, though. Nope. It seemed another man had pissed in her cereal that morning.<br /> "This is just the cherry on the cake. Why not get a scar to memorialize the day I walked in on my boyfriend cheating on me? I'm so angry I could punch him in the manhood."<br /> I swear all three of us males cringed. I also had to rearrange my thinking. She was no Disney princess. She had spunk, to say the least.<br /> "She had the nerve to brag about his oral skills. Please. I literally have had better climaxs humping my hand. Either her needs are rock bottom, which is great for her if that's the case, or she was just lying to try to hurt me. I'm embarrassed, sure! It's not everyday you walk in on your boyfriend motorboating Miriam Dark's private part lips, but whatever. I'm just pissed. I came all the way here. I shaved. I put lotion on every inch of my body. Even the backs of my knees. Did I care that they're going to get sweaty faster now? Nope. I wanted to be smooth."<br /> I leaned against the doorway and let myself really look at her. She was taller than I'd thought and had legs that stretched on for miles. The black jeans hugged her full hip and hips in a way that made my mouth water. Her waist clipped in just enough that my hands would fit in the notch perfectly if I was taking her from behind. Her shirt made her full breasts look even more delicious while she was standing and I was at half-mast almost immediately.<br /> Her body, as stunning as it was, nearly touched on the beauty that was her face. Her big blue eyes were surrounded by dark eyelashes and her pouty mouth was stained red. She had dark brown hair down to her shoulders that curled wildly. If she hadn't been swearing, her creamy skin would've really made her look like a Disney princess. She could've probably gone down to Florida and got a job playing one of them right then. I'd never been attracted to a Disney princess before, though.<br /> "And you want to know the worst part? I work for the stupid prick. And no, before anyone has the jackass assumption that I'm sleeping my way into my position, I'm not. I'm better at his job than he is and I've been sticking around for even longer than I should've because he kept promising that he'd put in a good word with his boss for me. Because I deserve it. I do his work. I can't remember the last time he's had to do a single thing. At least he chose to sleep with Miriam himself. Although, I'm pretty sure I'd be better at that, too."<br /> Jones snorted and held up his hands when the little firecracker spun on him. "I'm not disagreeing with you, honey. I'm just enjoying hearing you eviscerate this manhoodhead."<br /> She stared at him and slowly her face darkened and she brought her hand up to cover her mouth. She looked absolutely distressed and I hated it.<br /> "What's wrong?" I made myself known and was rewarded with watching her eyes trail down my chest. The way her eyes got all bedroom heavy and she licked her lips turned that almost solid shaft into a full blown shaft. I had to shift to hide it from her curious eyes.<br /> She glanced back at Jones and then at Xavier. "Oh."<br /> Xavier stood up and inched towards her. "Are you okay? Your head... Is it hurting?"<br /> She looked up at him and I saw the way her body naturally swayed towards my giant of a best friend. Something about that made me want to hug her. Some women treated Xavier and his size like a threat and it hurt him. "Oh. I can't believe I didn't realize before now. You're JAX."<br /> Jones sighed and nodded. "Yep."<br /> She pushed her curls back from her face. "Don't worry. I'm not going to fangirl. I'm just mortified. I work for your record label and this is now the most unprofessional vacation I've ever taken. I have to go. Can you just forget you ever saw me?"

My chin begins to wobble as tears form in my eyes.<br /> I shouldn't be crying, but I know that he won't accept me. I'm ruined ... I'm marked, claimed to be someone elses ...<br /> "Why are you crying?" he inches closer and only stops when he's in front of me. I want to fall into his arms, to beg him not to reject me, to save me, but how can I when I'm claimed ...<br /> "You're going to reject me." my eyes squeeze shut as I suck my lips into my mouth.<br /> "You might be marked, but I can fix that."<br /> "How?" I stare up at him with teary eyes, "We remove it." he shrugs, his eyes filled with lust.<br /> ————————<br /> JESSICA'S POV<br /> Nick and I have been married for three years, we are high school sweethearts and married when we were twenty when neither of us found our mates. These days, fated mates are rare and hard to come by ... we both agreed I'd be a good Luna to the pack since I trained with him, I learned to be a luna from his mother and we have been inseparable since we were in diapers.<br /> He's my best friend and my true love.<br /> We made a promise to never leave, to never break the bond, to never reject one another when we found our real mates, which is likely to never happen.<br /> We are attending a ball tonight, but my insides are twisted, as if the Moon Goddess herself wants to shield me from whatever is going to happen, I tried to talk Nick into staying at home, but as stubborn like all alpha's are, he refused and said that we would get a bad name if we didn't attend.<br /> Sitting in the car while our driver takes us to a nearby pack, a strong and mighty one.<br /> I know it's our duty to attend, but holding his hand in the back seat, something is terribly wrong.<br /> We arrive and there are a line of cars outside, one by one driving by , guests getting out, wearing gowns and suits.<br /> It's our turn and Nick opens the door, holding his hand out to me and I happily take it as we get out, photos are taken and a red carpet is rolled out as if we were famous.<br /> Nick looks handsome with his dark blonde hair gelled back, his chiseled jaw tense, and the edges of his lips curled up into a small smile.<br /> We arrive inside and we're led to the ballroom, servants with trays walking with snack food and drinks pace all over while the guests stand and chat.<br /> I notice the alpha of The Deep Mountain pack greeting people, making rounds to greet and speak, there's a stage in the middle against the wall, a bar to the side and a dance floor in the middle where couples are dancing elegantly.<br /> I smile at my surroundings and freeze when I look at Nick, staring at a beautiful dark haired girl .<br /> "Nick." I tug at his hand, but it's like he's under a spell, frozen in time as the girl stares back at him.<br /> "Nick." I tug harder, his shoulder shrugging back, "Huh?" he turns to me with a frown, his fingers letting go of my hand and I feel cold.<br /> "I'm going to grab a drink." he smiles at me before walking off towards the bar, closer to the strange woman.<br /> I was an omega and the room is filled with power, I could even feel hers because she is of a higher rank.<br /> I gulp as I watch him walk to the bar, his eyes locked on hers and she elegantly turns in her navy blue dress, walking towards him with dark lustful eyes.<br /> I can't be ... but it is ... it's his mate ..<br /> I stand frozen and a shoulder bumps into me, making my head turn at the woman glaring and snarling, "Watch where you are going!" she scolds and I apologize before walking over to the bar, joining my mate's side while he absentmindedly stares at the woman next to him.<br /> I clear my throat, but there's no response from him.<br /> He doesn't even notice me ..<br /> "Nick." I smile , hope filling my heart as he glances at me, fear flashing through his perfect green orbs as he steps back and then looks at her again.<br /> "Jess, this is Tiffany ... my mate." he smiles awkwardly at me but when he looks at her, it's a genuine smile ...<br /> "Nick." I frown in concern and he takes my hand, giving it a tight squeeze, "Don't worry, I know what to do." he smiles, "Shall we talk outside?" the gloominess in his eyes makes me relax only for a minute until she holds out her hand, smiling gracefully with her full lips and pretty blue eyes.<br /> My heart sinks when her hand hooks into his arm and they head to the balcony. alone ...<br /> I should go with ... but it is a private matter.<br /> 'He's ours...' Zola, my wolf, whimpers.<br /> I stand at the bar, staring carelessly at my mate walking off with his true mate and I inch closer, frowning as every nerve in my body is burning to follow them.<br /> I glance around and there are so many people that they don't even notice until the Luna of the Deep Mountain pack steps closer, "Jessica, is it? From the West Pack?" I nod, trying not to be rude when I look at the balcony and not at her while she speaks to me.<br /> "Oh honey, it's done." she shakes her head and I frown, cocking my head at her in confusion.<br /> "What do you mean?" My eyes stare into her honey ones.<br /> "He found his mate, I'm sorry but it's fated and you are now the other woman." she sighs, glancing at the balcony doors.<br /> I stare at her, my heart racing a million miles an hour and I excuse myself.<br /> I step out of the house, moving around the arriving couples when I feel my heart squeeze, pain taking over and I know what it meant ... Disgust fills me and I start to run, glancing over my shoulder no one notices and I shift, my beautiful pastel pink dress ripping to shreds as I run into the woods.<br /> The pain had stopped, but I did not return home until after midnight, finding Nick sitting on the couch, watching tv.<br /> "Jessica, where have you been?" he stands as I slam the door shut, standing undressed in front of him.<br /> I cross my arms over my chest, glaring at him. "Excuse me?" I shake my head at him, "Where have I been? What have you been doing!" I growl, making his eyes widen in shame and his gaze flicks to the floor when he scratches his nape.<br /> "That's what I thought, you couldn't even resist ten minutes before sleeping her, could you?" I see the pure rage filling me.<br /> "I didn't, I swear..." he promises, but I don't believe him.<br /> Scoffing, I strut past the couch to our room, "Can we talk?" he yells and I turn , "Did you reject her?" I frown and he falls silent, raking a hand through his hair.<br /> "Then no, we can't ." I turn and walk to our room.<br /> He follows me, closing the door behind us, "Jess, I love you. I promise I will reject her, I just ... I couldn't, it's much more difficult than you think." he frowns, explaining himself.<br /> "And will you go and do it?" I grab clothes from the closet, "I will, just ... I need time." he begs and I snort, "Can I come when you do it?" the silence says it all, he doesn't want me there ...<br /> "You're saying you'll do it, but you won't, because you are weak." I tut, shaking my head.<br /> "I will, I just need to distance myself, to keep myself away and then I'll do it when I have the strength to." he explains, his eyes pleading for forgiveness.<br /> I hum, ignoring him as I strut past him toward the bathroom and he reaches for me, grabbing my wrist and I snarl at him, making him let me go instantly, "Don't touch me after sleeping someone else." I grit out, backing up into the bathroom and I slam the door shut, the heavy thud shaking the windows and I lock the door.<br /> I take a hot shower, the water pouring down on me as my back slides down the tiled wall, tears streaming down my face as I weep.<br /> I hear the door handle jiggle and I wipe the fog from the glass door, staring at the handle go up and down as he tries to enter.<br /> I feel a tug at the mind link, but I shut him out.<br /> He disgusts me, he promised, both of us promised one another that we would immediately reject our mates before the bond grew and he is letting it grow, making it ten times more difficult to reject them.<br /> I can't believe I trusted him ... I expose his mark in the crook of my neck, I hold our love dear in my heart and he just let it all go down the drain, letting it sink into the sewers.<br /> I am nothing under his shoe and here I am, still loving him with every breath I take.<br /> After sitting more than an hour under the steaming water, it turns cold and I sit for another half an hour before standing and I shut the water off, taking my time to get dressed and when I stride out in silk booty shorts and a thin strap silk top, I notice how Nick lays in bed, his thumbs circling one another as he stares at the ceiling.<br /> He doesn't even notice me and I am sure he's thinking about her.<br /> The one who stole his heart within a second, the one who is going to steal my life, my bed, my position and my mate.<br /> We are real mates, we accepted one another, we marked each other, we might not be fated, but we are real or we were before her.<br /> ==<br /> My heart starts racing as we head further up the stairs, my pulse is beating in my ears and the musky scent is intensifying. When we reach the top, there's an entire living room in the middle and then two halls, but the scent up here is stronger ... "What's that smell?" I ask Louis without hesitation. He turns to me, his arched brows furrowing together, "The sweaty smell? Must be Nate, my alpha, but please, call him Alpha Nathaniel, he doesn't like strangers calling him Nate, or anyone else. As his best friend, I have perks." he winks at me, his smile so genuine and he seems like a totally different guy in his own pack than what he was at the party.<br /> I wet my lips and it still stings, it's taking forever to heal but I could feel it start from the inside.<br /> "Louis! Have you seen my phone?" Nate's voice comes from the opposite hall. "No, I've been out doing your job!" Louis yells back and the power lingering in the air is suffocating me. I'm stiff and upset about the stupid dress I thought would impress Nick.<br /> "Come.." Louis tugs me down the other hall, away from Alpha Nathaniel and once I enter his room, I'm shook. Everything is so white except for a few decorations. "Wow." I breathe out, his room is bigger than Nick and I's.<br /> He marches over to his closet and grabs a shirt, tossing it at me, "The bathroom is over there." he nods behind me and I turn, smiling before looking over my shoulder at him, "I'll be right back." he struts over to the door and I head inside the bathroom, the white marble walls knock the air right out of my lungs and I stand for two minutes and just look at everything.<br /> The bathtub looks huge, almost like a hot tub, the shower has benches built in and is large with great shower head equipment, the sink is built into a large white counter with beautiful engraved cupboards below it.<br /> I quickly undress and put Louis' white shirt on that fits me like a dress. I drape my dress over my arm and pick up my heels before exiting the bathroom, standing awkwardly looking at the bed ... wondering if he'll come back to peck me ...<br /> I know I shouldn't think of it, but I've been feeling so alone ... It doesn't matter if Nick slept next to me last night, his mind wasn't with me ... he didn't want me in his bed ... he wanted her.<br /> He didn't even come near me when all I wanted was for him to hold me, to tell me I'm still important too ... but he didn't. When he climbed into bed, he turned his back to me and fell asleep, but it seemed forced, like he didn't want to see me at all.<br /> The door opens and Louis stands there, his eyes trailing me standing in his shirt. "You are tiny, aren't you?" he comes inside, holding out his hand and I take it, "Let's get that dress fixed." he grins and leads me down the hall again.<br /> Before taking the first step, a clearing of a throat makes us stop, "Louis, who's this?" Alpha Nathaniel's voice makes a shiver run down my spine and Louis turns first, "Jessica." he smiles and before he could explain anything, I turn, freezing when our eyes lock.<br /> My lips part as I stare into Alpha Nathaniel's beautiful olive orbs, his entire body language changes, his laid back look now tense.<br /> "Mate." he growls lowly and I gasp, fear and excitement mixing inside of me. My stomach flutters and Louis let's go of me, stepping aside, "Nate, I didn't know." he moves away from me and Alpha Nathaniel's eyes lock on my busted lip, his eyes flicking a bright silver as he looks at Louis, "What happened to her lip?" he grits out, anger clear in his tone.<br /> "Her..." , "Wait!" I blurt out, looking at Louis with pleading eyes and Alpha Nathaniel's head snaps to my direction, curiosity visible in his gaze, "Why wait?" Alpha Nathaniel asks, his tone calm when speaking to me.<br /> "I just ... I think I should tell you." I pick at my nails nervously, hoping that he wouldn't reject me.<br /> Louis walks over to me, "Give me the dress, I'll get it cleaned." he smiles and Alpha Nathaniel gives him a weird look as I hand it over.<br /> "Excuse me." Louis mutters before trotting down the stairs, leaving me alone with Alpha Nathaniel.<br /> "So, what happened?" he asks, his muscles tensing. I want to inch closer, every fibre of my being wants to be near him ... but his gaze falls to my neck, looking at the mark embroidered into my flesh.<br /> "My mate his Louis for dancing with me and he accidentally hit me too ... I was in the way." his eyes flash bright, anger written all over his face, "Accidentally?" he frowns, dragging his large veiny hand through his black hair. "Yes, I believe so." I gulp, his aura makes me feel like running away.<br /> "And you have a mate..." his eyes narrow on my mark and I feel the need to just claw it off.<br /> "My mate found his mate and now I'm just ... the luna of our pack." My chin begins to wobble as tears form in my eyes.<br /> I shouldn't be crying, but I know that he won't accept me. I'm ruined ... I'm marked, claimed to be someone elses ...<br /> "Why are you crying?" he inches closer and only stops when he's in front of me. I want to fall into his arms, to beg him not to reject me, to save me, but how can I when I'm claimed ...<br /> "You're going to reject me." my eyes squeeze shut as I suck my lips into my mouth. I flinch as his fingers brush over my cheek, wiping the tears away and sparks erupt in my face, sending a calm sensation down my back.<br /> "You might be marked, but I can fix that." his hand brushes my raven hair back over my shoulder, his thumb dragging over my mark and it slightly stings because he isn't the man who gave it to me ...<br /> "How?" I stare up at him with teary eyes, "We remove it." he shrugs, his eyes filled with lust.<br /> I step back, "How?"<br /> I never heard of a mark being removed ... and if someone did, they sure didn't survive to tell the tale.<br /> "It's a rare ritual, but you seem tough enough." he shrugs, making my blood run cold ... I'm not tough ... I was an omega before being a luna ...<br /> "I was an omega before being a luna." I blurt out, feeling like it's a fact he has to know.<br /> "But you are a luna, it changes your status. Didn't you feel yourself change?" his fingers drag down the side of my arm before he takes my hand and I feel like I might just jump him right here.<br /> "Let's get you out of Louis's shirt ... I know he's kind but you smelling like him pisses me off." his eyes widen, his jaw tense and I follow him without hesitation.<br /> Walking into his room is like walking into a fancy black interior design room, the walls are black, his bedding his black, his cupboards are black ... everything is black with beautiful gold detailing.<br /> "Wow." I breathe out as I absentmindedly march over to the double doors and just open them without asking. I step outside onto the patio, staring at the dark forest that surrounds us. We're far from the ground and I turn, looking at the dark exterior.<br /> Alpha Nathaniel joins me outside with a black t-shirt, not that I expected anything else, "Here, this will suit you much better." he grins, handing me the black shirt. "Where's your bathroom?" he frowns at my question, "Inside." he nods to behind him and I smile up at him, his emerald eyes glistening as he watches me pass him.<br /> I could feel his eyes on me as I disappear into the bathroom and it's even bigger than Louis' ...<br /> I find it extremely weird that the guy who brought me home is my mate's beta ... for Goddess sake ... I thought of pecking him!<br /> I take a few minutes to glance around the bathroom, staring at myself in the full length bathroom mirror across from me.<br /> My lip is almost fully healed at least ...<br /> Nick ... oh Goddess, what do I tell Nick?

You won't talk to me, and every time I get close to you, you scurry away." He put his hands in his pockets.<br /> "Christian, there is nothing to talk about. I don't have time for your gibberish. Don't you have other girls to bother? What can you possibly talk to me about? !" I was losing my cool.<br /> "Natalie, I like you a lot." His eyes were getting dark. That look, there it was again. Desire? "CHRISTIAN!" I yelled. "Spit it out now! What did you come here f–" Before I could finish my statement, he slammed his lips on me.<br /> ————————<br /> ~Christian's POV~<br /> Last night I heard my parents talking about Natalie coming home. I knew they were talking about Natalie Adams, the one girl who was untouchable or unapproachable. That vixen thought she was hiding in the shadows but I saw her.<br /> The thing is that she didn't realize how badly guys wanted her. Even if they came up to her it was funny because she would stare at them like they were stupid and her resting b-face said it all. She didn't even have to respond, and because of that they never approached her again. Talk about painted black. I think that was the color of her soul.<br /> The girl was beyond gorgeous. Every time she walked in a classroom or the cafeteria, her dark and mysterious demeanor attracted anyone. She would never know, because when you saw her with her earbuds on, it's as if Natalie was always in her own world.<br /> I wonder where she goes every summer because I never saw her around the pack when school was finished. I was thinking about asking my parents, but that will have to wait.<br /> I was always surrounded or being approached by girls, it never failed. I've slept around and I wasn't ashamed of it because I am an Alpha and an Alpha needs that release. I did have an ex-girlfriend that seemed to not know the meaning of "ex". Elle was always around when I needed an easy contact.<br /> She was Zeo Wilson's sister, our future beta, and was captain of the cheerleader squad. This girl would sometimes scare the other girls away and acted like she owned me. The girl is hot but has a nasty attitude and thinks highly of herself. No shame whatsoever.<br /> Natalie, however, she was the one girl I was profoundly attracted to. I wanted to feel and taste her. She had this strong aura around her and that confused me because I know her parents are warriors, but there was this ambience about her that made me want her more than any other she wolf. Just maybe, maybe she could be my fated mate.<br /> I went on Instagram and just like I assumed, she has her account in private, so you can only see her profile picture. It was a set of earbuds on top of a book in black and white. This girl was fascinating. I wanted to know her so badly…all of her.<br /> I mean come on, who wouldn't want a piece of me. I'm 6 '6, muscular, I have the lightest gray eyes with dirty blonde hair, medium on the top and short sides. I'm every girl's wet dream. I've been told I look like the younger version of Christopher Egan. I'm better looking though.<br /> So I did what I have never done with any other girl. I sent her a friend request on Instagram. "Now the waiting game begins."<br /> ~Natalie POV~<br /> "Pfffsh, no!" He may be attractive, and I won't deny it. After all, I am a girl, and the guy is hot. Every girl may go crazy for him and desire him, but not me. He's a scumbag. His cocky disposition said it all.<br /> He sleeps with anything that has a hole. It's like a stray dog, leave it alone, you don't know where it's been. 'He probably has STDs or something, not to mention where his mouth has been,' Zoe said in disgust. Can't disagree. I know we may be exaggerating, but Christian's been around with almost every chic in that school.<br /> ~<br /> I was already running for 20 minutes, when I sensed another wolf running too. 'A warrior on security watch?' No. My wolf Jasper sensed it was a girl. As I got closer, I smirked. 'Well, well, lookie who it is.' I told Jaz, a shorter name for my wolf.<br /> I knew I would get to her first before she sensed us because Alpha's have stronger abilities than all other wolves.<br /> 'Lucky us. I am fond of this one, Chris.' Jaz said. 'Well let's go say hello, maybe we'll get lucky to allure her.' I said cockily.<br /> As we got closer, she turned around in defensive mode. 'That was odd.'<br /> "What, Christian! What are you trying to do? Give me a heart attack numb nuts!" She said, trying to catch her breath.<br /> I started to laugh, "Woah baby, no need to go in attack mode and…numb nuts?" I said, raising an eyebrow looking offended with her word choice of insult. She was fiery, and her voice sounded hot.<br /> "Yeah…well…you should never sneak up on anyone running ALPHA!" She said angrily.<br /> Every time she spoke, my shaft twitched, and this time, I stepped closer. I smirked and licked my bottom lip. "Nat, you don't have to call me Alpha, just Christian or Chris for short." She noticed the action.<br /> She raised an eyebrow, "Okay…Christian…but you will have to call me Natalie. Only my close friends and my parents call me Nat. What are you doing here? Were you stalking me? You know better than anyone never to sneak up on someone like that unless you're looking for a hip whooping," She spat. "You know how rogues don't follow rules and are ruthless killers!"<br /> "Wait, stalking! No, I was out for a run today. Why did you say it like that…wait…unless you saw the friend request." I said, dismissing the rogue statement.<br /> "Please…yeah I saw it. Now that you bring it up…no." She simply said.<br /> "No…" I said, looking dumb founded.<br /> "We are not friends, and you have never spoken a word to me, Christian. What did you expect? It would be like you invading my personal space!"<br /> "Speaking of personal space, back off, you keep coming closer, dude." She looked pissed and was already fisting up her hands.<br /> "Shorty, why do you have to be so angry? It's just a friend request, and it's not just from anyone, but from your future Alpha," I chuckled. "Sweetheart, you make it difficult to get near you. In that case, let me get to know you better, Natalie. It's never too late." Now biting my lower lip.<br /> As I got closer, she kept backing up until she hit a tree. I leaned to her face, and I could smell the vanilla scent in her hair. She smelled good. I wanted to peck her badly. But that thought disappeared when I suddenly felt pain down south. 'Did she just hit my balls!' I went down on one knee holding my pair to soothe them.<br /> "Don't for one, think, I am attracted to you or treat me like those other girls you have luring around. I am nothing like them. Never invade my personal space. You may be my Alpha soon, but even the Alpha has to respect his pack members." She looked down on me and if I wasn't more attracted to her than ever.<br /> She was beautiful. 'Chris, mate or not, we want her!' Jaz said, and I couldn't agree more. ' She definitely is unique, Jaz, one of a kind. ' I said as I saw her curvy body making her way back home. My hands ached to touch her.<br /> 'The nerve of that fool' I told Zo. 'Did you see how he was licking his lips like if I was a piece of meat,' I said, all pissed off. 'He was sniffing my hair too! Creep!'<br /> 'You sure kicked him hard, girlie! If I could hi-five you, I would, so I'll do it mentally' she snickered. 'He is cute, though Natie. The guy has muscle. I wouldn't mind seeing his wolf Jasper.' Zoe said.<br /> Ugh…maybe so, but he is too arrogant and cocky. Zoe kinda caught me off guard with that comment, though. Traitor.<br /> I ran fast, heading home. So much for a quiet and peaceful run. I got home showered and changed. My parents weren't home. I noticed it was past 9, so I called Evie.<br /> "Good morning Natie! I woke up at 9 thinking you weren't kidding on calling me, but to my surprise, you didn't call on time. That's not you, Nat." She said, concerned.<br /> "Evie, you will never believe what happened to me. Come over so we can talk and head out!"<br /> _____________________<br /> "No freaking way! What are you for reals? ! Christian!" Evie's mouth was wide open.<br /> "The devil in the flesh Ev's!" I told her. I explained what happened this morning about receiving his friend request and what happened on my run, almost scaring the pee out of me by sneaking up on me. The way he caged me by a tree and how he was acting weird, like trying to make a move on me.<br /> "Nat, Christian has the hots for you." She said in a teasing voice. Christian is not a one woman man. "Ev's, no dude. Honestly, there is only one guy that I really would like to know and…ugh," I said, now feeling a little sad.<br /> "Who! ? Ivan Carter? ! He is an attractive one, buddy."<br /> Ivan Carter belongs to another pack, the Midnight Pack. He is the son of Alpha Easton Carter. He also attends the academy, and every time I sneak a peek at him, my body reacts to him. I've touched myself just thinking about him.<br /> 'You ain't lying Nat, he's a total package.' Zoe said breathlessly.<br /> 'Okay make up your mind! ? I chucked.<br /> I have never gotten close to him or talked to him. Well it's my fault, actually. I don't like getting close to anyone, and I was scared that he didn't feel the same way. I can't get my hopes up anyway. He's meant to be an Alpha. We shouldn't really mess with Alphas either way. I've heard Alpha's can choose their mates as well, but a true fated mate can make a strong heir.<br /> He also has this chic that is always around him, Camila Ares. She is next in line for Gamma in his pack. She is always with or on him. She freaking irritates me.<br /> 'He doesn't look interested in her, but they are always together. Well him and his click.' Zoe putting her two cents in. 'Yup,' I sighed.<br /> "Evie, do you think this year will be different? I don't know if I'm ready to see who I'm mated to." I can't believe I sound so down. I mentally slapped myself, I got up and shook off all of those unwanted emotions and thoughts.<br /> I'm scared of these feelings I have for Ivan, only to be hurt if he's mated with someone else, which probably will happen. I have to do something fast and stop whatever this is before I get a broken heart.<br /> "Nat, you're gorgeous, and anyone mated to you will be lucky as heck because you are one of a kind! To answer your question, yes! This is our year!" She leaned over and gave me a big hug.<br /> "You're gorgeous too, buddy. Anyone would be lucky to have you as a mate. I'll kick your mate's hip if he thinks otherwise. I got your back, babe!"<br /> We got up and headed for my car. My parents had gotten me a used Red, fourth generation Camaro from 2004, on my 16th birthday. I love my car.<br /> I rammed my engine and headed to town.<br /> ~Ivan's POV~<br /> "Alpha Ivan! Hey, earth to Alpha!" Jerry hollered. "I'm right next to you idiot" I growled. "Put me on the spot, why don't you."<br /> Jerry Scott is my Delta, and he's already taking charge since his father stepped down. He is the head warrior and trains our pack members.<br /> Training is about to start, and we are about to spar each other.<br /> I will soon become Alpha of the Midnight Pack. At the age of 18, the current Alpha, my father, Easton Carter, will step down, and I will claim my place as Alpha.<br /> I got distracted with my thoughts. In a few weeks I'll be going back to school at the Blue Moon Academy. It's our last year, and I'm anxious, though. There's this girl that has been on my mind rent-free. I haven't made the effort to talk to her. It seems she's not the talkative kind and brushes anyone away.<br /> This year will be different. I will make the initiative to get closer to her. I'm all giddy just thinking about her. When I think about her face, her hair, and her body, I get turned on. Natalie Adams makes me feel things I've never felt for anyone.<br /> Striker, my wolf puts these images in my head of us sleeping. 'There is something about this girl Ivan, that when I see her, it makes me go crazy, she belongs to us. That aura around her when she is pissed is captivating?' Striker says calmly.<br /> It's not common when a person's wolf feels infatuated with a certain person who is not their mate. I've heard that Alpha's get signs if a girl belongs to them, but we haven't been too close to her to sense any of those signs. Honestly, I wouldn't even know the signs if they were there.<br /> Just watching her from afar has been enough for us both these past years. But it's time to change that because just looking at her is not sufficient anymore. We need and want more of her.<br /> However, he's right. We've seen people piss her off from a distance. She doesn't show emotion like other girls, but when she is angry, her aura is strong, and with that, she scares them off. She's fierce.<br /> Her demeanor says it all. I can't put my finger on it. Only wolves with high rankings have that type of aura that demands respect and obedience.<br /> But if I am correct, her parents are warriors from Christian's pack. So…it can't be possible. Werewolves take their rankings seriously. Well, most of us. That's just the way it should be. Your destined mate and you should make a strong heir.<br /> It also irks me of the fact that Christian has had his eyes on her. It sucks that she is from his pack. You can see the gleam in his eyes when she walks into the lunchroom. My wolf wants to peek out and claw his eyes out each time. Arrogant nutsack.<br /> 'That's true. Should we do a bit of research regarding her family line?' Striker eagerly says. 'Yeah, maybe we should. Just maybe there is something more to her, and by luck, we could have a chance to be mated to her.' With that thought, I couldn't help but smile.<br /> You may ask, what is it about this girl that makes her so interesting? Well, she is definitely not like the girls at school or my pack. She is attractive, and that fierce, mysterious, emotionless demeanor she gives out makes her so alluring. Makes you curious about her personality and what she thinks. This girl attracts unwanted attention without even trying.<br /> All other girls yearn for that attention and throw themselves at guys, but not her. She also doesn't give any guy her undivided attention. It's like no one exists around her. She is in her own world.<br /> "Ay, what's that on your face! Are you smiling? Wipe that off Alpha, ain't nobody got time for that when you're about to get a beat down." Jerry says laughing.<br /> …and just like that, my face is emotionless.<br /> 'Alright, you got jokes!' I scowl. Turning around, I yelled, "BEGIN!"<br /> _________<br /> After our training, I headed to the pack house. As I open the front door and head to the stairs, I hear footsteps behind me, and someone jumps on my back. I knew it was Camila because of her scent. It's too flowery and strong for my liking. Striker growls.<br /> Everyone thinks that we are together, but that is far from the truth. We are friends with benefits. I don't feel anything for her, honestly. Striker gets pissed off. He dislikes her scent and voice.<br /> He only accepts it if we imagine Natalie beneath us.<br /> "Get off me, Camila! I'm your Alpha!" I yelled. She flinched and quickly got off. I already do Alpha affairs as I'm slowly transitioning into the labors of a true leader. I take my job seriously because leading is what I do best.<br /> "What's wrong baby, you've been distant lately? You don't want me anymore? You haven't invited me up to your room. It's been weeks now, Ivan." She said, with her whiny voice.<br /> Striker snapped, 'She better remember her place, Ivan! It's Alpha to this bimbo!'<br /> I palm my face. "ALPHA! ALPHA IVAN…CAMILA! ! ! Don't forget my title and don't forget your place." I growled. I was being a scumbag.<br /> Don't get me wrong, Camila is hot. She is 5'8 taller than most girls, with chocolate brown hair. She has these pretty hazel orbs. However, she has an ugly attitude, especially with girls that get close to me. I can't stand that. I may have slept with her a couple of times, but I feel nothing for her. She is not Natalie.<br /> ~<br /> "What's up Ivan, you rang! ?" Pointing at his head trying to be funny.<br /> Jerry, Axel, and Camila are allowed to call me Ivan without using my title. Especially if we are alone or having a group conversation with just the four of us.<br /> However, Camila has been irritating me lately. I may have acted like a scumbag but I have to somehow hammer it in her head that we are not a thing.<br /> I said this before, but I take my position seriously. Being a leader is a serious matter and the decisions I make can have a life or death impact on my pack.<br /> From here forward, she will have to understand that I can not condone that type of disrespect especially if we are not together. I allowed it in my bedroom but now, things have changed. She also has to take her position seriously. If and when I find my Luna, she will be the one to be protecting her. That's the role of a Gamma.<br /> "Yup, I got a mission for you. But this is low key." I said glaring at him.<br /> "Okay, whatcha got? !" Jerry said now sounding excited.<br /> "You remember Natalie Adams from the academy? From Christian's Pack." I asked.<br /> "Yeah…who doesn't! She's freaking hot!" He sheepishly replied.<br /> "Watch it! I want you to look into her family background," I said possessively.<br /> He covered his mouth and jokingly said, "Whaaa…? !" I pinched the bridge of my nose and furrowed my brows. "Well can you or can you not! ?" sounding bothered now.<br /> He chuckled, "Of course I can, anything for you bro. Is there something I should be concerned about though or something I am looking for in specific?"<br /> "Have you ever noticed the aura she gives out at times? I sense power and strength like if she comes from a higher rank, but her parents are warriors," I calmly said. It may not be a big deal but I'm curious now.<br /> "I just think there's more than meets the eye with her," I wasn't lying. "She is so different. It's like Camila, she's a Gamma because of her dad, but Natalie seems to be stronger than a Gamma if you get my drift."<br /> "Ah, okay, okay, I get it. I'll get to it. You don't have to explain…it makes sense," he said. "This can not leave this room. This is between you and me," I said, trusting him.<br /> The less people know what I do, the better. It may be stupid to others but for me, this is imperative.<br /> "Got it!" Jerry said leaving the room. Jerry is my best tracker and hacker when it comes to technology. He is a genius, very observant, and fast. That is why he is our Delta.

It all began with a slight flakiness on the skin... then those disgusting yellow toenails appeared... but it was the awful smell emanating from my feet and shoes, driving away my loved ones, that really messed me up...<br /> <br /> When I retired, I finally got to live by the ocean like I always wanted. But the joy of going barefoot was crushed by one big problem...<br /> <br /> Everyone staring at my embarrassing yellow toenails!<br /> <br /> At first, I blamed it on years of wearing closed-toe shoes for work. But it turned out to be more than just some weird discoloration – soon enough, my feet started smelling rank too.<br /> <br /> I was so embarrassed by people's reactions that I kept my socks on all the time. And as time went on, my feet just got worse.<br /> <br /> I tried everything – soaking my feet in apple cider vinegar, slathering them in tea tree oil, even using expensive creams and sleeping with bags on my feet.<br /> <br /> But that dang foot fungus wouldn't quit, it just kept getting worse.<br /> <br /> All I wanted was to feel the sand between my toes, but I was too ashamed to show my feet. I even avoided the beach altogether.<br /> <br /> But when my granddaughter got the same problem, I knew I had to find a solution...<br /> <br /> I finally spilled the beans to a friend, and she knew exactly what I needed. She shared this eye-opening video below.<br /> <br /> It revealed the surprising cause of my foot fungus, thanks to some awesome researchers who knew their stuff.<br /> <br /> And guess what? The video taught me a simple astronaut hack that totally changed how my feet looked.<br /> <br /> And the best part? It only takes a minute out of my day, and it's all-natural too.<br /> <br /> Just two weeks later, I was walking barefoot on the beach like a champ.<br /> <br /> Finally living the dream!<br /> <br /> And the best part? It saved my granddaughter from the same mess!<br /> <br /> I can't thank this method enough.<br /> <br /> Seriously, it was an answer to my prayers! 🙏	LEARN_MORE	https://always-health-wellness.site/vslpn/?utm_sou	105038805849990	Melissa Silva	https://facebook.com/100090491404741	337	0	1,290,942,941,874,690	2024-05-02 02:00	person_profile	eligible	NONE	1	0	Learn more	Melissa Silva	120209902189560023	always-health-wellness.site	NONE	video		https://always-health-wellness.site/vslpn/?utm_source={{site_source_name}}&utm_medium={{placement}}&utm_campaign={{campaign.name}}&utm_term={{adset.name}}&utm_content={{ad.name}}&cmc_adid=fb_{{ad.id}}	2024-05-02 20:45	https://scontent-ord5-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/438118922_1086466805982876_3198903354493439579_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=110&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=6k4EZEqh6kEQ7kNvgEgnIKe&_nc_ht=scontent-ord5-2.xx&oh=00_AfCZuj3YfEXj70w7Q5yoe3n5dgIsisYGu0rzX53dvvzFuQ&oe=663A6736	person_profile	Melissa Silva	https://scontent-ord5-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/438160056_1164063117961768_9055868664929674329_n.jpg?_nc_cat=103&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=Xtz7qYcU5OMQ7kNvgFL44cq&_nc_ht=scontent-ord5-2.xx&oh=00_AfDFBngcEtUgxobACuoaY3XLbQT2NPn5WLR4KnKvpKTXxg&oe=663A9366	3	Melissa Silva	2024-05-02 02:00	View Edit Delete

You don'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'm done. Good luck to you and this pack. I hope you can handle the fallout for you and your bimbo's actions."<br /> "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."<br /> I spat. "You should know, you didn't deprive me of Luna's title, but I didn'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."<br /> "Oh, and Alpha, You, of all people, know how ruthless I can be if pushed."<br /> ————————<br /> "Well Zel, I just wanted to let you know that I plan on being the Luna of this pack, and your days as Kosta'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?" 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'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'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'm really speechless. This is a new low, even for her.<br /> <br /> "Just so that I am clear, what exactly do you mean that you want my goddess-given mate and title," I asked.<br /> <br /> "I mean exactly what I said. I want Kosta. I want to be his luna and I am going to make that happen. I've already started the process. I deserve to be a luna."<br /> <br /> "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."<br /> <br /> "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." She spat.<br /> <br /> "How can you speak like that about elite warriors? Your father and your brother are elite warriors."<br /> <br /> "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."<br /> <br /> "Well, obviously the goddess did not agree with you," I said. "Just to clarify, you're saying that even though you found your destined mate, the one that was made specifically for you by the goddess, you're still interested in my mate? You are unbelievable. What is wrong with you?"<br /> <br /> "It's simple. I'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."<br /> <br /> "So you think you know better than the goddess?" 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 /> "Zell, I told you a long time ago not to trust her. She has always been this person. She just pretended with you." Sapphire said.<br /> <br /> "This isn't personal, Zell. It's simple since the moon goddess did not give me an alpha, I'm going to take one."<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't want to believe that about her. I convinced myself that the others were just jealous of her.<br /> <br /> "Do you really think it is ok to try to break your best friend's mate bond?" I say.<br /> <br /> "Oh Honey, I'm not going to try. I'm going to do it. He will be mine. I'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."<br /> <br /> "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'm sure you won'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'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." I say.<br /> <br /> "It's not an if, it'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."<br /> <br /> "That'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've been accused of leaving their mates for you. Even the ones who got rejected didn'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't think for a minute that my family will let either of you go."<br /> <br /> "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'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's time for you to go before you give him an heir." 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'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'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'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'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'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'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'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't try to seduce him. I don't know any mated pair that has gone this long without being intimate with each other. I don'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'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'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't need me anymore. If that'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'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'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's wealth?<br /> <br /> "We need to eat Zell. Remember, we are eating for our pup as well. Don't let them win. We are better than this. If they show us they don'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't deserve us. We will sit back and let them destroy themselves."<br /> <br /> "You are right Sapphire. Let's go eat. Our pup needs sustenance."<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'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 /> "What is going on, Kosta? Why is she sitting in my seat feeding you?" I growled.<br /> <br /> "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. "<br /> <br /> "I was speaking to my mate, not his bimbo on the side."<br /> <br /> "You were not here for your mate, so I have been taking care of his needs."<br /> <br /> Sapphire pushed forward and growled loudly. Everyone in the room bowed their neck to her.<br /> <br /> "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't make me remind you what my family name is," Sapphire said.<br /> <br /> I regained control and looked at Kosta. He didn't even appear to be concerned. He didn'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 /> "Kosta, I asked you a question. What is going on?"<br /> <br /> "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't have to step in and take care of my needs." 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 /> "So now I'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'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." 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 /> "Don't walk away from me, Zell," Kosta yelled.<br /> <br /> "Why not? You don'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'm done. Good luck to you and this pack. I hope you can handle the fallout for you and your bimbo's actions."<br /> <br /> "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."<br /> <br /> "Alpha, what are you doing?" Beta James asked<br /> <br /> "Mind your business Beta. This is my pack." Kosta says.<br /> <br /> "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's all calm down and discuss this later." Beta James said.<br /> <br /> "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."<br /> <br /> "First of all Alpha." I spat. "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'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."<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 /> "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't push me, Kosta. You, of all people, know how ruthless I can be if pushed."<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'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'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'm sure he and the bimbo are plotting up something.<br /> <br /> I called my brother and tall him waht happened.<br /> <br /> "So what's the plan, baby sis?" my brother answered.<br /> <br /> "Well, I have already moved all of my personal money from the pack accounts. They are now responsible for themselves. I'm not sure how that is going to go over. I was covering most of the pack'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'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."<br /> <br /> "Very smart Zell. What do you need me to do?"

I can hear the demand in his voice, he's practically begging for me to submit, but I won't.<br /> I walk back, making him think he's getting his way. A coy grin tugs at the corners of his mouth, but I stop in front of him, leaning back against the other side of the bar. With a slow ease I cross my arms in front of me, expecting his gaze to dip to my chest that's now more pushed out in my tank, or even down to my legs in my short skirt, but his eyes remain locked on mine.<br /> "I've got a name," I say evenly. "Learn to use it and you'll get your drink."<br /> His eyes flash. "Nah, I like doll better."<br /> I shrug one shoulder, biting my bottom lip. "Then I guess you'll be thirsty."<br /> —<br /> It was after ten on Friday night, The Bar was popping. By the capacity of people I was inclined to believe that every single person in Kettle's Bell was here tonight. Between the music and the people my ears were filled with a hum of activity. The place was alive. It was going to be a good night. Jeb was off on vacation with the newest Mrs, and TJ was in charge tonight. There was just something about working a place like this for a woman that was so much more satisfying than when you do it for a man. It was more empowering and less sleazy.<br /> At least a little.<br /> I was on a high, fixing drinks faster than I ever had, getting bigger tips that I'd gotten in all of my shifts so far, and my song was on.<br /> I was in an untouchable zone.<br /> An hour earlier I'd heard the terror bringing whisper of "They're here." Being passed around the bar area. I didn't have to ask who to know. I'd wondered how many days I'd have to work before I finally got to see the ones all the stories are about. According to TJ, they came often, so I was admittedly a little curious at least when I got news they'd finally decided to show.<br /> Keeping cool, still pretending to be focused on the washed up jock sitting in front of me at the bar I'd scanned heads. No one new yet. I'd been really ready to chalk it all up to small town gossip when finally I saw them.<br /> It wasn't hard to know it had to be them, the way the crowd split open for them like they were Gods. Six men brushed in the front door, all looking like they could break any person in this bar in two if they so pleased. Freakishly tall, unnervingly built, and covered in tattoos, they definitely made an entrance. They'd broken off just inside the door, two heading over to the stairs, three moving to find a spot (not that it was hard since the full booth of people jumped out of their seats and practically ran away as they got near) by the center stage where Candy Crush was up on the pole.<br /> The last one came over to the bar, sitting just three stools down from jocky.<br /> "Bourbon." He said, folding both of his hands on the bar top. He was handsome, not so much in the conventional way. His face was long and his beard was shaved up close to his jaw, very well-manicured. His hands were tattooed to look like skeletons and he smiled wickedly when he caught me looking. "You like?" He'd asked and I had shrugged casually as I poured his drink.<br /> "Pretty cool ink." I slid his drink to him with a smile.<br /> He took a long swig of the glass and then leaned forward on his elbows. "You got any ink, new girl?"<br /> "Actually, it's Alyssa, but no." I reached under the bar for a sip of my water, but he continued to stare.<br /> "How'd you end up here?" He asked after a minute, the question sounding strangely like an accusation, but I kept up the smile, popping the tops off of two beverages for the girls down the bar.<br /> "Bad luck I guess." I winked and he pulled out a toothpick and stuck it in the side of his mouth, letting it dangle between his teeth.<br /> "I'd say." He'd said, then like a harmless puppy, he'd taken his drink to join the others, Becca chasing him down on his way. She called him Toby and was asking him where Daimon was at. I gathered from his clipped answer and her sad expression that tonight wouldn't be the night I got to meet this baddy bad leader of theirs.<br /> Their coolness had long since worn off since they'd been here. No one was getting beat up, I didn't see any deals going down, and they were spending money left and right. I really didn't see the issue with these guys honestly. The one from earlier, Toby, had even gone and requested a song. To his credit, it was a bomb song.<br /> He'd gone back over to the stage area, which was only a bit odd since he wouldn't even be able to hear it from there where the dancers had their own music, but I loved it, so I didn't question it a bit.<br /> It was getting closer and closer to midnight, the time it would really start to get crazy in here, and I enjoyed my moment of down time. I let my hips move to the music, closing my eyes as I swayed behind the bar, blocking out everything else.<br /> "Who are you?" A deep gravelly voice broke through my concentration near the end of the song. I opened my eyes and nearly needed to pinch myself under the bar. With one look I knew exactly who this must be.<br /> There was no question in my mind, this was Daimon Kross.<br /> I wanted to react to him, but I didn't let myself.<br /> I did on the inside though.<br /> Holy freaking baby Jesus mother Mary and the whole gang, this guy was...there wasn't a word. I didn't know men that looked like this existed outside of a Hollywood made film. First of all, like the others, he was huge. Shoulders so broad I'm sure he could easily drape me over them, not that I'm picturing that, and he had to be at least 6'4. I'm not short by any means, actually a little tall for a girl, but jes-us was he up there. His black t-shirt probably deserved a metal the way it was working its little heart out keeping his thick muscles contained, and I was more than a little curious about the lines of tattoos I could see running out of the neck out his shirt and his sleeves.<br /> As if his body wasn't distracting enough though, his face was everything a face should be. A thick jaw with just enough scruff, dimpled chin, cut cheek bones, long sharp nose with a pale white scar across the top, and those eyes...deep set amber colored eyes fringed with jet black lashes and over shadowed by the thick lines of his black eye brows. He looked dangerous, he gave off a whole sense of danger, and somehow, my body wanted to drive right past all of the caution signs and collide with him anyway.<br /> Luckily, I'm the one in control, not my body.<br /> With a very well-practiced level of disinterest, I look away, looking to my nails on my right hand, the glossy black paint is fine, but I pretend to look for an imperfection.<br /> "I'm Alyssa," I tell him, turning back to look him right in the eyes. "Who are you?"<br /> I already, know, I just ask to piss him off. The way his eyes narrow tell me it worked.<br /> "Kross," He says with an air of authority. "Daimon Kross."<br /> I laugh at his seriousness, probably a bad idea, but you can tell the guy thinks a lot of himself. "Bond, James Bond." I mimic in a deep voice, turning my back to him while I throw away a couple empty bottles.<br /> When I look back he's leaned forward, elbows on the bar, hands gripping my side of it.<br /> My god, he has nice hands.<br /> His eyes narrow in on mine. "Careful." He whispers. I know his type. The kind that thinks he owns anyone he decides he wants to own. But I can't be owned. Not anymore. I turn to walk away, but his booming voice stops me. "I want a beverage."<br /> "I'll go get Becca for you." I look at him over my shoulder.<br /> His whole body tenses. "I didn't ask for Becca." He grinds out. "I asked you."<br /> I just smile. "She'll be right down." I turn again, taking a few steps away, catching my breath while he can't see me.<br /> "Hey, come back here and make me a drink, doll." I can hear the demand in his voice, he's practically begging for me to submit, but I won't.<br /> I walk back, making him think he's getting his way. A coy grin tugs at the corners of his mouth, but I stop in front of him, leaning back against the other side of the bar. With a slow ease I cross my arms in front of me, expecting his gaze to dip to my chest that's now more pushed out in my tank, or even down to my legs in my short skirt, but his eyes remain locked on mine.<br /> "I've got a name," I say evenly. "Learn to use it and you'll get your drink."<br /> His eyes flash. "Nah, I like doll better."<br /> I shrug one shoulder, biting my bottom lip. "Then I guess you'll be thirsty."<br /> He tightens his shoulders and the muscle in his jaw pops. "I guess you won't be getting any of my money."<br /> I smile easily, crossing my ankles. "What a pity, I guess I'll just have to settle for money from all of these other people in this super busy bar." I tell him, knocking him back down a peg. He thinks he's the only man alive, I can show him he isn't.<br /> I'm only slightly concerned when he leans back, flashing his teeth at me in a vicious smile. "That so?"<br /> I flash a full smile of my own, watching him watch me. "Goodnight, Mr. Kross."<br /> Before I can think about walking away he slides his stool back with a loud scrape and he's standing, turning away. "Boys! Hey, everyone shut up!" Everything stops. Literally. Even the freaking music. "Listen up, under no circumstances will anyone here order from, talk to, or tip Doll Face here." I glance around, shocked to see that way more bikers have gotten here in the past hours. They're practically crawling all over the place. Daimon turns to me with a dark smile and lowers back onto the stool. "Looks like you aren't making a dime until you make me my drink, doll."<br /> He's so smug, sure he's won. He has no idea how wrong he is. Had the old Alyssa been here, she'd have scrambled to do what he wants, but she died long ago. I work on burying her deeper everything single day and I'm not about to let Daimon Kross dig her up again.<br /> "Is that what you see?" I walk towards the bar, leaning forward, less than a foot from his face. I want him to look at my body, that would make this easier, but I can see him fighting it. He keeps his gaze locked onto mine. It's intense and I don't know why I'm still fighting this instead of just giving the man his beverage, but I just won't back down. That's not the Alyssa I am anymore. I can never be her again. Knowing I'm playing with fire I say, "Because I see a very full bar of men who are going to be very thirsty in a little while, and a waitress who's night just got way easier. Since no one will need me now, I'll just be over there with my feet up."<br /> You're no one if you can't walk the walk after you talk the talk, so without over thinking it, I walk out from behind the bar, my heels clicking as I cross to the closest booth in the corner. I sit down, pushing back so that I can prop my legs up in the booth in front of me.<br /> It's ballsy, but worth it.<br /> I certainly don't expect him to follow me, but he does. Right to the booth. I should have thought about my positioning before now, but it's too late. He stands at the front of the booth, towering over me where I sit. In the corner like this, he could murder me with one hand and no one would even know it happened.<br /> "Just who do you think you are?" He snaps, his hands at his sides clenching like his jaw.<br /> I lean forward, drawing my knees up just a little. Not enough to flash him my undies, but enough to make him think I might. "Alyssa," I look up at him under my lashes. "Not doll."<br /> He lifts one hand and rubs his jaw, his annoyance rolling off of him. "Get up and do your job." He bites out. It's a direct order, I can feel the urge in me to do as he says, but I hold that down. I fight it with every bit of fight I've got left.<br /> I blink up at him once. "What's my name?" I say tauntingly.<br /> He leans down so fast I don't know how I don't jump, and he grips the edge of the table, making it creek. "Doll. There are other waitresses here."<br /> "Smart boy," I nod, looking past him. "There goes one now."<br /> Becca emerges from the stairs, scanning in a frenzy to find him. When she sees him she smiles sweetly, lowering her head just a little before waving once. He looks away from her and back to me, his eyes finally trailing over me like I've wanted from the beginning. It's calculated though, an appraisal he is choosing to show no interest in.<br /> "This isn't over." He snaps.<br /> I stretch my legs back out, crossing my ankles again. "Looks over to me."<br /> I feel the table shake in his grip, behind his face I can tell he's holding back. "You're really asking for it aren't you?" He whispers menacingly, leaning down closer to me. "Do you have any idea who I am?"<br /> I don't know where I get the nerve, or maybe it isn't nerve at all, maybe I just want to do it, but I reach out, lightly touching his hand with mine. It's a quick pat, condescending even, before I pull back. I can already tell he's pissed and I haven't even said anything yet. You don't initiate contact with guys like him. It takes their power away. They don't like that. But I don't care anymore.<br /> "I hate to break your heart," I whisper, sweet as pie. "But I stopped being afraid of the big bad wolf a long long time ago." He jerks upright at my words, glowering down at me as if I'd slapped him before he controls his expression. "You'll have to do much better than all that if you expect to scare me."<br /> "I'm sure I can." He seethes, backing away. "You'll regret this." He says.<br /> I just shrug, watching him go. "I'll add it to the list."<br /> I barely get a five minute reprieve from the overpowering presence of the Daimon Kross before TJ is rushing towards me, the look of horror all over her face. "Alyssa, what did I tell you?" She asks, exasperated. "Are you actually insane?"<br /> "No ma'am, I just don't like being treated like a thing instead of a person." I tell her and she sighs loudly.<br /> "That's all very commendable and all, Alyssa, but you're working in a club right now." She looks down her nose at me and then shakes her head. "Actually, you aren't even working."<br /> "He told-." I try to say but she cuts me off.<br /> "Get on stage." She points to the one in the middle that Ren is exiting. "If you can't be useful as a bartender tonight, you're going to have to do something."<br /> I nod once. "You got it boss."<br /> I take the stairs quickly, brushing into the dressing room and changing into a stage outfit. I pick a frilly pink thing, going for that innocent angel thing that drives men wild, pairing it with some far from innocent undergarments to strip down to. I know the drill.<br /> The beat from the bass blurs everything as I take the stage.<br /> I wrap one hand around the pole, letting the music sink into my bones as I make a slow circle around it once.<br /> I can feel him before I see him.<br /> I open my eyes, looking up to the balcony on my left and there he is, all alone. His eyes on me, a smile on his face. I want to hit that smile right into next week. He thinks he's won. I'd bet money he was the one who made TJ put me on stage. He thinks he can degrade me by forcing me onto the stage tonight, but again, the joke is on him.<br /> I'm way past letting something like this get to me.<br /> I let it fuel me, my movements becoming sultrier.<br /> I don't look away. Not the entire time. I stare directly into his eyes, watching the smile slowly fade from his face. I'm not letting him win, not even as I'm stripped down in front of all of these people.<br /> I don't care, and it is driving him absolutely mad.

Give up, say you did it to Kelly, and we're done. You're going to apologize to Kelly and him. Do you really find that hard to do? How about lowering your self-esteem a little more?" he said.<br /> "I will stand by my words because they are the truth. What happened to your sister-in-law was her own doing, Theon, but no matter how much I plead with you, you never believe me. I really can't stand you anymore. Let's get a divorce. Did you hear it? I want you out of my life. I, Luciana Estelle Ortiz, finally reject you as my partner. You make me sick. "<br /> ————————<br /> "Kelly lost her child because of you!" Alpha Phillip said angrily. <br /> "What do you mean? I didn't do anything to her. Kelly is lying. She is just looking for someone to blame for her carelessness but I swear, I didn't push her," I countered to defend my innocent self from their harsh accusation. I looked up to Theon who was standing right beside me. My eyes, begged for him to take my side, to believe me this time.<br /> "You should be kneeling down for mercy, Estelle. Begging for us to forgive you but instead—"<br /> "I am sorry to be impolite but why would I do any of that thing? I am not at fault here," I cut him off and the alpha laughed sarcastically<br /> "Look at this woman you are calling your mate, Theon. If you weren't a fool and stubborn back then. You won't end up with her."<br /> I gasped in shock when Theon held me by my shoulder and pressed me down on the floor, forcing me to kneel before the Alpha.<br /> "Let go of me, Theon," I said in between gritted teeth, trying to wag his hand off my shoulder. He only held me down tighter as if his patience is about to run out too, "You can't force me to apologize to her. It is not my fault. Let me go!"<br /> "Kneel down or I am going to cut off the tie between us and reject you as my mate. Choose one, Lucianna Estelle," he whispered that made me lose all of my strength.<br /> I could not help it but smile bitterly as Theon's harsh words played on my mind like a broken record. By the way he stares at me, I already knew that he won't take my side but him telling me that he will cut off our bond and reject me as his mate is too much.<br /> Theon pressed me tighther on the floor, showing no mercy, not even a chance to look up and meet his father's eyes.<br /> I lost the count of times he have turned his back on me. Most of the time, I will let it slide and shrug it off like it didn't happen but not this time. I don't think I can easily forgive him.<br /> I am not really sure which is more painful. These scratches and tiny wound that I got in my knees or the bleeding of my heart. I never lied to them but why do they find it so hard to believe me?<br /> Alpha Phillip sighs heavily, "Let me ask you one more time, Estelle. Why did you push your sister-in law in the pool and cause her miscarriage?" I can still sense the raw anger on Alpha Phillip's voice that he is trying to mask with the calm look on his face.<br /> I finally find the courage to once again see him eye to eye. I straightened my back, redeeming my composure.<br /> "I am sorry," I murmured. Of course he is not pleased to hear those words from me, but the Alpha is satisfied that I am finally apologizing for the mistake that I didn't commit in the first place. That's what I thought.<br /> "I know you all want to hear that from me but as much as I hate to disappoint all of you. I have too. For the nth time. I am going to say it again and I will remain firm with my words and claim. I didn't push Kelly. It was her fault. She lost her baby because she was careless and—" I closed my eyes. My heart jump out of its cage to runaway as shock consumed it.<br /> Alpha Phillip threw a porcelain vase in my direction. I was fortunate enough that it didn't hit me but it pieces flew threw my direction, leaving a scratch on the left side of my cheeks.<br /> My hand slowly crawl up to my cheek, trailing the blood that is coming out of my skin.<br /> "I can't believe how arrogant you have become, Estelle! Is it because your husband is close to becoming the Alpha of the pack? Because you are going to become the Luna? Is this why you are challenging me and my authority?" Alpha Phillip screamed angrily. His shoulder shakes and the color of his eyes changes from gray to golden brown, a sign that if I continue to get on his nerve. His wolf will take over and everything would be more chaotic.<br /> "Alpha," Theon called his father but the Alpha ignored him completely.<br /> "Drag her out of this room. Out of my house. Make her kneel outside of the house until she gives in and confess the truth!" Alpha Phillip announced.<br /> Warren, Alpha Phillip's most trusted delta immediately oblige his words. He grabbed me by my left arm and pulls me to stand up from kneeling.<br /> I silently follow Warren's guidance as my eyes silently watch everyone else. Alpha Phillip glance at his youngest son and shakes his head in disappointment. He is probably blaming Theon for my rude attitude.<br /> As soon as Alpha Phillip stormed out of the private hall. Warren let go of my arm. His eyes made a quick scanning on me and then he turned to his bestfriend, Theon.<br /> "Really, Ares Theon? You can't even say something to defend your wife? If the Alpha orders for his warrior to take her life, still you won't say anything, do you?" Warren mocked him.<br /> "It's her fault. What do you want me to do? If you were so worried about her then why didn't you say something? You too were quiet the whole time," Theon scoffed. He gazes at my direction one last time before he followed his father's footstep.<br /> "Between you two. It should be you who needs to cut the bond. When will you save your self from this, Estelle?" Warren asked. I smiled weakly at him.<br /> Warren no longer needs to walk me out of the house. I did it on my own. On the cobblestone in front of the pack house. I kneeled, with my knees pressing on the small stone in the pavement, wincing in pain and struggling to maintain in my position is expected.<br /> "Miss Elle, you have to do it properly says the young master." A pair of female omega came to my side. They didn't even try to hide those insulting smile that they had plastered on their lips as they talk.<br /> I darted a glare at them that they ignored on purpose, "You have to spread your arms as you kneel. That is the proper way."<br /> "Excuse me? That is a punishment for someone like you. How dare you insult me like this? Have you forgotten who I am?" I asked in between gritted teeth.<br /> They only look at each other and giggles.<br /> "Why are you getting mad at us? It's a word of your husband, Miss. Not ours. Also, we haven't forgotten who you are. You are the future Alpha's forsaken wife," she said.<br /> In time to that. The reason why the sky looks so dark and gloomy finally fall. Rain pours down and the two of them immediately rush themselves inside, leaving me all by myself.<br /> I lifted my arm and spread it on mid-air as I continued to kneel in front of the pack house.<br /> The rain started to fall harder. Strong and cold winds blew. All that is left for me to do to somehow keep myself warm is to hug my body.<br /> I heard from some of the servant that walked passed by me earlier that Alpha Phillip cancelled his birthday celebration because of what had happened and I am sure that everyone in the pack are blaming me for what had happened.<br /> I licked my lower lip. The rain has finally stop from pouring. Darkness spread in the sky like a wild fire. The omega that Theon asked to check on me as I am being harshly punish is now asleep.<br /> I have been in this position for God know's how long. I am dying to leave. My body is getting a lot weaker and I feel feverish. The coldness didn't left my body even though the rain is already gone. In fact, my whole body is trembling and my head is starting to feel terrible too.<br /> Now that there is no one watching me. I can choose to stand up and leave but my pride is taking over me. I would rather suffer than confess that I did something that I didn't do. Everyone has turned their back on me. I can't do the same thing to myself. If I can no longer give myself some respect and integrity. No one else would.<br /> "Estelle, you need to get through this. You have to be strong," I whispered to myself as drop of tears escaped from my eyes.<br /> Just when the lid of my eyes is about to close. I lightly shake my head to keep myself awake. I even bite my lower lip until I tasted blood coming out from it.<br /> The whole night had passed. My clothes that were once drenched and dripping because of the rain has dried off and the sun is starting to light up the whole world yet I am still kneeling. I could no longer feel my knees.<br /> I had my eyes glued on the cobblestone. It only moves when I saw a pair of leather shoes inches away from my bleeding knees. My eyes crawls from the pair of shoes up to his legs, upper body and finall to his chest.<br /> "Theon," I whispered my husband's name using the last drop of my strength and energy.<br /> He lowered his height so our face would met.<br /> "Will you now admit to your wrong doing, Estelle? Come on! Give up and say that you did it to Kelly so we'll be done and through. That is all what the alpha wants to hear. For you to apologize to Kelly and to him. Do you really find it hard to do? Lower your pride a little more, will you?" he said. I chuckled bitterly and look up to him with nothing but hatred and disgust.<br /> Theon was caught off-guard by the emotions in my eyes.<br /> "Do you really think that I am that gullible, Theon? Why would I let myself suffer overnight if I'll end up admiting that I am the one at fault? I'll stand firm with my words because that's the truth. The only person to blame for the tragedy that happened to your sister-in law is no one but herself, Theon... but you're never going to believe me no matter how I begged for you to listen to me," I took a pause and breathe deeply. I need to be courageous enough to open my mouth for the second time, "I really can't stand you anymore, Theon. Let's get a divorce. Do you hear me? I want you gone in my life. I, Lucianna Estelle Ortiz is finally rejecting you as my mate. I should have done this ages ago. I should have listen to my father when he told me that you are no good for me. He was right. The Moon God made a mistake making you my mate. You disgust me."<br /> This could be an impulsive decision because I am hurting at the moment but at the same time. I know too well that this is the only chance that I have. I need to walk away from Theon right now because I know that it would took me a thousand years to find the courage to leave him if I let this chance slide.<br /> I rose to my feet and slowly make my way inside of the pack house even though I can barely stand up.<br /> My inner wolf is crying and dying in pain at the same time as I packed everything that I own in this room inside of my luggagr bag. Once I am done, I zipped it up and my eyes landed on my ring finger.<br /> I closed my eyes to stop myself from crying. I removed the wedding band from my finger and left it on the side table.<br /> I am feeling dizzy and hot. It felt like any moment from now. I am going to lose my balance and fall to the ground because of my fever but I can't afford to stay here any longer.<br /> As I was dragging my luggages down the staircase. Theon happened to be walking upstairs. I immediately look away from his direction and continue to drag my luggage and myself out of the pack house that serves as my home for years.<br /> The deltas guarding the gate open them up for me. I looked back at the pack house as bitterness swirls in my system. Theon can no longer wait for me to leave this place. He even told their guards to let me leave as soon as I can.<br /> Of course he can't. Although I am his mate. His heart belongs to someone else. It belongs to Kelly and he never had the chance to had it back even if she was married to his older brother. Theon waited for his chance to be with her the way I am waiting for him to look at me the same way he looks at her.<br /> I am such a fool for hoping that something like that would happen.<br /> The moment I opened my eyes. I saw a white ceiling and that blinding white light. My body feels weak. It's aching all over, on the second thought. It's not my body that is making me weak and fragile but my wounded inner wolf who is mourning and grieving over the fact that I rejected her mate, Theon's inner wolf before they become intimate.<br /> That's right. Theon were never intimate with me and we were married for three years. The first time that he pecked me was when we got married and if I remember it right. That was the last time too.<br /> The door opened and when my eyes trails to that direction. I saw Beau, my childhood bestfriend walked in with a paperbag on his hand.<br /> "H-Hey," I greeted him. He walk straight to my hospital bed. He flashes a bright smile that soothes me somehow.<br /> "Where am I?" I continued to look around and my eyes gets to answer the question that had escape from my lips. I am in the hospital and I can't believe that I have these medical things attached on my body.<br /> I hold on to my dextrose and was about to take them off when Beau stopped me.<br /> "Don't. You need that in order to gain some energy for your body." I smirked at him and continue to pull the needle out of my veins. Soon, I realized why he didn't want me to take these thing off.<br /> My wolf is too weak to heal me, but it's too late. I can put it back on my own. We are gonna need to call a nurse to put it back on me but I don't want anyone in my room at the moment.<br /> I pushed my upper body to get up from the bed and sit. Beau was quick to assist me. He put a pair of pillow to support my back.<br /> "I already know why I am here but why are you here? I can't remember how I got here," I said. The last thing that I can remember is me walking out of the pack house's gate.<br /> "Warren called me. He said you need me. When I arrived to pick you up. I saw you unconscious in front of their gate. It was raining. Would you mind telling me what happened? Why the guards let you in such state? What happened to your wolf, Estelle?"<br /> I looked away from his eyes. If there's someone I can never lie too. It's Beau. He can tell wether I am lying to him or not and I don't really want to talk about it.<br /> "I thought you'd prefer these over the hospital food. I got you your favorite pasta," he said.<br /> I immediately grab the paperbag from his hand. The pesto cheered me up somehow and it gave me energy too. Just when I was about to take the last bite from its aesthetically pleasing container. He opened his palm before my eyes, asking for something.<br /> I looked up to him with confusion dwelling in my eyes. "Hmm?"<br /> "Your phone. I will keep it for the mean time?" My eyebrow crane up.<br /> "Why would you want to keep my phone?"<br /> "Just give it to me. Deal with Theon and everything once you are well for the mean time. I want you to focus on getting better. I am not used in seeing you like this. I want the energetic and happy Lucianna Estelle." I pouted my lips. I already saw my phone on the table next to my hospital bed so I do know where to get them. Seconds after giving it to Beau. He turned it off and then he gestured me to finish eating my food.<br /> "You still eat like a kindergarten. I can't believe that you were to become the Luna of that pack," Beau said it mindlessly and when he realize that he said something that he shouldn't have. He presses his lips together.<br /> "I will go get something that you can use to clean up your face," he mumbled, changing the topic to ease the awkwardness between us.<br /> "No. Nevermind. I got it." I grabbed a wet wipes from the side table and clean myself. I decided that washing my face would be better and so I left my room to do it so in the comfort room because my room does not have one.<br /> "Have you seen the article about the Sullivans? It's crazy. From the moment I saw the second young master's wife. I know that she's no good. Just by seeing her gives me the irks." Hearing those nurse gossiping about me in the hallway made me stop from walking. I had to hide myself in the corner just so they wouldn't see me.<br /> "She is basically a murderer. She killed her sister-in law's baby. The only thing that is left to remind her of her late husband. I am glad that the heir to the throne is divorcing her. I don't like the Lucianna Estelle to become the Luna of the city and rule together with Alpha Theon. I'd rather have the soon to be Alpha married his brother's ex-wife than stick with her good for nothing wife..." they continued to talk about me.<br /> "But aren't they mated to each other? Theon and Estelle?"<br /> "Theon probably rejected her. Her wolf is struggling that is why she's here," said by the other nurse before they giggle as if my suffering brings them nothing but absolute joy.<br /> "These people. How dare them insult you like that. They know nothing." Beau was about to approach them when I managed to pulled his hand and make him stay by my side. I look at him and shake my head, telling him not to do anything about it.<br /> "I need a way more important favor from you, Atty. Beaumont Meadows. Will you help me with my divorce." Beau stared at me with his mouth half-opened.<br /> "You were the one who asked for divorce?"<br /> "Yes."<br /> Beau pulled me into a warm hug and whispers, "Finally."
