Cassie’s POV
I wasn’t so sure I had gotten his scent right.
But still, I needed to be sure.
I walked up to his chambers, standing in front of his door.
I was surprised to have felt so excited about a while ago getting to find out.
And now standing in front of his door, I suddenly felt the tension of having to lay out the information to him out of the blues.
I wondered how it was he would take in the news.
I shifted back and forth, contemplating whether or not to knock on his door.
And then I summoned up courage, as I had the door opened without knocking.
I had the door opened, as I snuck my way in.
I tiptoed my way up to his bed, feeling joyful and gleeful in letting him know how happy I am to be pronounced his mate.
And then, the lights came on.
I guess he had gone out for a stroll, with me thinking he lay peacefully on his bed sleeping.
As I had thought of it to wake him up with the good news.
“What the hell are you doing here?” he asked angrily like I was an intruder.
I got up to my feet feeling embarrassed from him walking in on me and crawling on the floor of his chambers.
So embarrassing…
“I came to see you,” I said feeling too embarrassed to look into his eyes.
He looked at me with disgusted eyes as he looked me up and down making me feel so uncomfortable.
“We are…” I stuttered.
I looked up into his eyes to find that he had his eyes locked on mine.
“You have been staring at me for quite a while now”
“Do you have something to say or not?” he asked.
I was surprised that he didn't say anything about him having any feeling that we are mates.
“Do you feel any different?” I asked.
Bn
He looked at me confused like I had said something out of the understanding of mankind.
“You are wasting my time here” he shot at me.
I fidgeted with the sleeves of my dress as I finally voiced it out.
“We are mates!!” I yelled, closing my eyes.
I gulped, staring at him nervously.
“I know,” he responded.
I had my eyes wide open the minute I heard him say those words.
I stood there staring at him speechless, hoping to see q
I couldn't reply, I couldn't say anything.
This has to be a lie and I wasn't going to accept any of this.
How is it that he knew and didn't think of it to say a word to me?
“What do you mean you know,” I asked.
His words cut in through my heart as if I had just been stabbed.
I sat back on his couch trying to take in all that was happening right in front of me.
“You don't seem happy,” I said with tears welled up in my eyes.
He crossed his arm around his chest, as he wore a stubborn and unbothered look.
I held on to his arm, hoping he would finally hold me close for an embrace saying how happy he feels learning about us being mates.
He pulled back the moment I had my hand on his arm.
“Don’t” he said.
I felt hurt by his sudden reaction.
“Can you leave please!!” He ordered.
I stared at him In amazement, wondering why he had suddenly asked that I leave.
“Are you asking that I leave?” I said as tears rolled down my cheeks.
I saw that he looked so unbothered, even with the fact that I was in tears right in front of him.
He grabbed me by the arms, pulling me up to the door and asking that I leave.
“I've done nothing wrong to deserve such treatment,” I said as he pulled me away.
“What do you expect me to say?” he asked, staring straight into my eyes.
“Tell me!” he yelled, tightening his grip on my arm.
Silent tears fell down my cheeks as I looked into his eyes.
“I have nothing to say about all of this mating thing between us.
I shook my head, closing my eyes tightly as I didn’t want to accept that he was indirectly rejecting me.
“Are you rejecting me?”I asked, wanting to believe that he wasn’t.
“Just leave!!” he said pointing to the door.
I wanted so badly to settle things with him.
But he wasn’t in for any of that, obviously.
I stared at him blankly for a few seconds and then had my focus back on the door.
“Why are you doing this?” I asked.
I had wanted to know his reasons for all of his reactions.
I wiped my cheeks and took a deep breath, watching the look on his face turn into more anger and rage as he let go of my hand.
I closed my eyes tightly and gulped, with such mental force I held on to the doorknob as I had the door opened walking out.
And then I made my way back to my room.
Apparently, I had been too anxious to let him know about the mating thing.
I laid on my back by the couch as I thought so deeply about what had just happened a while ago.
I had suddenly felt cursed by the moon goddess, given a mate who obviously didn’t want me either.
I closed my eyes, trying to calm myself down.
But the more I stayed still, the more worried I got.
Suddenly, another thought interrupted the moment.
Is he scared to have me marked?…
Well, it wasn’t any fault of my mind that I had to be the weak wolf.
I stared at my reflection in the mirror, regretting why things were seeming difficult at the moment.
And then, I had an idea.
I will talk him out of whatever decision he has of not accepting me as a mate…
Cassie's POVThe ray of light that came in through the gray curtains in my room suddenly had me up earlier than usual.I rubbed my swollen eyes from crying my eyes out the night before.I looked around the room, to find I had left the door to my chamber open.I walked lazily to the door, to have it closed.And then the minute I was at the door, I got his scent for the second time.I couldn’t hold myself as I had my eyes closed sniffing it all into my head.I shook myself out of it, the minute I had thoughts of what had happened the night before.I had been so happy getting the scent of my mate right in the pack house.And surprisingly up in the mansion.Feeling so excited, I followed up the scent and traced it onto Alder's room.I had been confused at first but felt excited knowing I had been given a mate by the moon goddess.And it turned out to be the obnoxious, arrogant, callous yet astoundingly handsome Alpha of our pack.The Sky Prowlers Pack.Alder Lewiston…Well, good thing he
Cassie’s POVI got up to my feet, running off after him as he walked out of the pack house.Now is my chance… I said to myself.I ran towards him and was hoping he would get to respond to me properly as he should.“Alder!” I called out to him as I ran on to him.And the closer I moved toward him, the stronger his scent grew.I could feel my wolf howling as I approached him.Immediately I stepped into the training house with him, he gave me a dead stare.I paused the minute he stared back at me.I suddenly contemplated whether or not to proceed with my steps as I saw the look on his face.All I wanted was to get him to talk to me, as it was starting to feel like he had been avoiding close contact with me ever since the night we found out us being mates.“I just want to talk!!” I yelled not minding that I was causing a scene calling the attention of the others at the training house.He turned staring into my eyes with so much rage and anger.“What do you want?” he asked.“Are you avoidi
Cassie’s POV“I hate that I had to be mated to a weak wolf like yourself” he shot at me.And all I could do was to stare at him as he yelled at me.The moment he had everyone fully focused on us, he turned to face me.I could tell from the look in his eyes that he was going to do something stupid here in embarrassment.“I, Alder Lewiston, the future Alpha of the Sky Prowlers Pack, hereby reject you Cassandra Bellevue as my mate!”I paused the moment he voiced out to me.I couldn't hold the tear that ran down my cheeks.“I refuse to be paired with such a weakling like yourself”“you should have known that I'll never accept you”“Are you even a werewolf or a human?”“You disgust me. Get out of my sight!”I sat there, feeling overly rejected as my very own mate uttered such heartbreaking words to me.My parents were mere omegas, but I was the weakest wolf in the whole pack.And neither was it any of my faults to be born a weak wolf.I stood there staring into his eyes as he looked straig
Cassie's POVI stood there for close to what seemed like an hour contemplating whether or not to jump in.But I thought it to be a stupid acceptance to defeat that I was rejected by my mate.I sat by the edge of the cliff for a couple of minutes to think.My eyes followed the running wondering how far the waters poured.And what it would be like to be carried away by it.I shook off the thoughts of having to jump off the cliff as I thought of heading back to the mansion.Or better still, I would go on to my mother and father.That way I would get to avoid any form of mockery from my other members.I wiped my cheeks completely off the dried tears, as I took a deep breath.I got up to my feet and walked my way back to my mother and father.And was hoping the news hadn't gotten to them that I had been rejected.It was going to make my father mad, but I wasn't to blame anyway.I exhaled tiredly from walking a long distance back to my father and mother realizing it was now getting dark.As
CASSIE’S POVMy head was ringing like a fire alarm and It was painful.A groan left my mouth as I tried to open my eyes. Slowly, I was able to open my eyes and they widened by a fraction when I saw that I was in a room. I was even on a queen sized bed!“I didn’t know heaven had a bed,” I mumbled to myself as I slowly sat up, ignoring the painful headache I had. The room was large with gray walls that had shades of black. There was a large chandelier in dangling from the middle of the ceiling and fairy lights at the edges of the ceiling.“This place is not my room,” I said as I looked around, panic was slowly rising in me. I was about get off the bed when the door opened and a woman walked in.“Darling, you’re awake!” she exclaimed happily as she approached me. Her voice was motherly and my heart clenched at the fact that my mother rarely used that voice with me. What am I saying? She wasn’t even my real mother!“Where am I please?” I asked her quietly as I felt uncomfortable under her
CASSIE’S POVI woke up with heavy eyes that hurt from crying all night. The headache that came along with it made it even more annoying for me. I looked around the room slowly to see that light from the sun was peeking out from the thick window blinds. I looked up at the wall clock on top of the room door to see that it was already eight in the morning. As I was about to sit up, there was a knock on the door. “Come in,” my voice was even hoarse and my throat was dry. “Okay,” I heard the sweet voice of Mrs. Smith as she opened the door. She walked in with a tray of breakfast and my heart skipped a beat.This woman was too nice that it hurt me badly.“Good morning, dear,” she smiled at me. Today, she looked brighter in a yellow dress that made her blue eyes stand out. “Good morning. I’m sorry if I slept late,” I mumbled as I sat up. She laughed and shook her head. “You didn’t sleep late, Cassie. I came to drop your breakfast before I go to work. Feel free to walk around the house and
JACK’S POVI sat on the bench at the practice area outside beside the pack house as I watched Alder. He was busy talking to a stupid bimbo known as Lucy. I actually have nothing against the girl. But knowing that Alder rejected my little sister and didn’t care that she was missing made me want to burn every single girl speaks to.“He’s such a coward,” I mumbled. “And a bastard,” my wolf added and I scoffed. I wish there was a stronger word I could use to describe him. The fact that we even breathe the same air irritates me, even though I know it’s childish of me. I didn’t even want to talk to my parents again.I looked up to see Josiah walking towards me. He just came back with the search squad from looking for Cassie. He shook his head at me and sadness engulfed my heart again.“We couldn’t even get her scent again. Wherever she went, she went very far away,” he said to me. My mind and heart became troubled over this. “We need to find her, Joe. She’s still young and incapable of defe
LUNA CELINA’S POVI couldn’t believe it!Surely, this was a prank. It had to be a prank. There’s no way, this girl standing in front of me could me mine.My wolf whined in the back of my head and it made my heart skip a beat.Trying to regain composure, I swallowed hard and cleared my throat. “How old are you, child?” I asked her.“Eighteen,” she replied. I looked at Vincenzo, who gave me a squeeze on my hand. I shook my head; I couldn’t handle this any longer.“Excuse me please,” I said and rushed out of the office. I even caught a whiff of her scent and I nearly fainted. It was so familiar, too familiar to be exact.“She looks so much like me,” I mumbled as tears fell from my cheeks.CASSIE’S POVMy chest tightened when the Luna left. I felt like crying, like I was rejected for the second time.“I’m s-sorry,” I tried hard not to cry. I didn’t mean to make the Luna leave. “There’s nothing to be sorry for, dear. Maybe you should come back later,” he said and turned to Gerald. “Thank y
