Jeanette pushed away to give me a stern look surprising me. I was ashamed really, too ashamed of myself " I'm sorry"" But why?" She asked " Why did you want to escape? I thought you were already getting used to this place?"I release a sigh and then got up. I went to stand beside the window. I folded my arms " I have my reasons ".." What are they? But I thought we were friends and we share things" She said sadly.I was glad she consider me her friend now. Jeanette is a very good girl. She is so nice that I sometimes tend to compare her with Kate. Kate is cool but Jeanette is nicer. Jeanette gives me this sister vibe that I love." My mother was kidnapped" I started and her eyes were twice their size." How? When? Who told you?" She was shocked." Yes, I'm saying the truth. I needed to rescue her so that was why I ran away" Jeanette got up from the couch " But you should have told me about it. Even if you didn't know to tell me, you should have told the Alpha. You got us all worrie
" Please tell me what happened. " Jeanette pleaded.I chuckled " Nothing happened " I took a spoon full of my rice. It tastes so delicious just the way I like it." Please, Miss Ella. I know something happened. The way luna walked out of this room with those scowls on her face shows that something happened"I was proud of myself this time around. I was able to stand up for myself without anyone trying to bring me down. I'm tired of being the quiet old Ella. This Ella is the changed one and no one dares talk badly of me and go scout free." Well, let's just say I gave her the taste of her cup of tea" I winked and Jeanette pouted." Just tell me already and stop talking in riddles" She groaned making me chuckle " What more do you want me to say?" " Ok fine," She said already given up " I won't bother you with that topic again"I rolled my eyes " Ok fine "She stared at me waiting for me to say something." The luna came here to yell at me. I don't know if I put it well but anyway " I
I decided to go for a walk since I've been indoors for too long. My mood was lifted after seeing the same birds as the other day. I smiled walking in their direction not trying to scare them away.I stretched my hands out trying to get their attention and surprisingly a white bird flew on my outstretched hand. I was awed at how beautiful it was. Having them in my arms gives me this unexplainable joy.I stood for minutes playing with the birds. When I grew tired, I allow them to fly away and they all queried away. I release a sigh of contentment. They just made my day and I'm glad." Look how good you are with the birds"I was startled a little but then pulled myself together. It looks like history was repeating itself.Xander came to stand in front of him with this perfect smile on his lips. I would have swooned if I wasn't with his brother. I know I'm being silly right now." What do you want?" I asked with a straight face.Xander cock a brow " Last I checked we were good friends ""
I wiped threatening tears. I looked him straight in the eyes, I was done, done with everything. I gave him one last look and then went out of the room with only one thing in mind and that is never to allow anyone to look down on me. This will be the last.I heard Zion calling my name and I fastened my haste. " Ella wait!"I kept walking as fast as I could. He was making a scene with the way he was shouting my name. Packs members stared at us baffled.He caught my hand before I could go far. I stopped walking waiting for him to let me go but he did " I'm sorry"I hate words. I hate that he uses that often when a confrontation like this happens." Please stop this. Let's end this whole drama " I turned around at him " You never wanted me anyway. Your mother doesn't want me to and I'm tired of everything. We were good when we came back but then what was the need for the hide and seek?" I pushed him on the chest.Zion allowed me to speak out my heart. He looks so ashamed of himself." I
Okay, I know I shouldn't be nervous but I am nervous and do you know why? Ok, let me tell you. Zion finally told me that he was ready to announce me as his mate in front of all the pack members and worst. His mother is to hand over the crown to me, I couldn't believe it too so that was why I told him to let her be for now.I wasn't ready for the throne. All I want right now is for the pack members to accept me as theirs. I've seen a lot of them shooting glares at him all the time. My heart thumps in my chest thinking about it right now. Was I ready for this? I asked myself. The answer is a big NO!But Zion wasn't haven't it at all. He was like the more we prolong things the more we give them a reason to talk and he was right. So here I am dressed in a purple dress that hugs my body nicely. I look beautiful I won't deny that.I smiled at my reflection. I was loving the glow all over me, this is a new me, a new Ella. I heard a knock. " Come in"Jeanette walked inside looking awed at me
Jeanette wiped her tears. She sucked in a deep breath. I wanted to tell her to just forget about it then again, I wasn't helping her if I don't allow her to appease her mind." My parent was an average member of a pack "I was confused " So you meant, they weren't a member of this pack?" I asked.She shook her head " No. We were a member of a different pack. Because of the war that occurs, we had to relocate to another pack" She explained." Go ahead, I'm listening"She nodded then continued" After the death of my brother, my parent went into depression. Their only son was gone and it affected them so much.It affected them to the point that they don't even have time for me and my sister. We were left to fend for ourselves. My brother was the apple of their eyes if that is the right word. He was everything to them, we were just like a burden to them. That's what they always called us, a burden"I felt for her. I do a lot. Having a parent with a favorite child is not something good at
Jeanette stared at me wide eyes " Huh?"I raiser a brow " Yeah, you heard right. Have you ever been in love or should I say are you in love with someone right now?"A blush crept up her face " I don't know what you're saying"..I chuckled. I understood that the didn't see that question coming " We are friends so I don't see anything embarrassing here "She fiddles with her fingers " I have a mate "I knew it. I saw that coming " Wow!"" Yeah" she couldn't meet my eyes." Is that why you're embarrassed? Please don't be " I said giving her a little push.She was so shy that she made me giggles " So who is the lucky charm?"" He is one of the guards" She said " His name is Seth"A nice name " Wow I'm really loving this already. He sure must be so loving for you to hide him from me "" I didn't mean to hide it from you. We never talked about me so I felt no need to raise the subject" She defended." But it doesn't matter if I ask you or not. I'll always celebrate your wins with you and n
The crowd cheers so loudly that I was beginning to think that I was scared for nothing. I don't understand if they were happy to see me or rather just pretending to be happy. As the soon-to-be luna, it gives me the chill that I'll be the leader of some packages. A pack I know nothing about I feel like my gut is cutting off. I wanted to be strong for Zion as he is of great help to me. He assured me that everything will be fine again which I'm holding up to. My heart beat so fast as the cheers died down.Zion gave my hand a little squeeze then went to the front stage to announce to th3 crowd whatever he wants to.He started by appreciating their effort to be present in this gathering. Some were shooting me this look I don't understand while others seems to be genuinely happy to see me on the stage. I was feeling so scared deep inside of me.This is something I was never used to. I'm a human for goodness sake. I don't even know how this whole thing works even though Zion promised to gui
