ANDREA
Everyone was changing but I'm still the only one standing without changing, nothing. I guess the moon Goddess has forsaken me yet again, I look at Sarah in her wolf form and I can feel the tears coming out from my eyes. I stood rooted in one spot not knowing what to do, why am I so unlucky that I couldn’t even get my wolf, one I could communicate with, one that could reassure me that everything would be okay?AAWWWOOOOOHowls filled the hall as both the males and females changed, and then I felt it, even if I didn’t have a wolf I could still smell and feel things, like now for example I could feel some tingling on my skin. I looked around and saw mates meeting each other, and when they met they changed back to their human form. Furthermore, I looked at the podium and saw Nicholas in his huge gray wolf, he sniffed around searching for her, his mate and I stared closely to see who the lucky female would be but imagine my surprise when he walked majestically in his wolf form to my side, sniffing the hell out of me. As his nuzzle touched my skin, I felt that electrifying feeling in my skin again. What’s happening?, I asked no one.Right in front of me, Nicholas changed and picked the shorts on the floor, he had a grim look on his face like someone just died. I mean this it’s s a mating ceremony, not a funeral, he raised his head and stared at me. He held my gaze for a while before uttering the words I never hoped to hear, he stared into my eyes and broke my spirit, soul, and body.“Wolves of crescent moon pack, Nicholas Curtis has found his mate.” He yells, making everyone pause to see his mate, I wanted to see the mate too. Alpha Jason and Luna Lily walked up to us, and as usual, Luna with a frown.“Son, you know what to do.” Alpha Jason said and looked at me with a glare. What did I do to you? I yelled mentally.“I’ve found my mate, but she’s unworthy to be my Luna, your future Luna; therefore I have to do what is required. I Nicholas Curtis, son of Alpha Jason of Crescent moon pack, reject you Andrea Carlson as my mate and future Luna.” He said with a disgusting look on his face. Yes, I deserve it, Am a disappointment. I stared at him as I felt my heart in pain, I didn't understand why I was feeling like something was clotted in my throat or my heart shattering into tiny pieces that nothing could amend, I didn’t even have my wolf, yet then why is this painful? Maybe because he is my long-time crush and childhood sweetheart from afar.“You’re expected to accept the rejection, Andrea.” Luna Lily said with a scowl.“Accept the rejection, Andrea.” Alpha Jason added. I can’t believe the people I took as my family would do this to me, am also human for god sake I’m not a thing to be used and dumped anytime you like.“Accept the rejection, Andrea.” Alpha Jason yelled using his Alpha pheromones and I complied immediately.“I Andrea Carlson accept your rejection, Nicholas Curtis, son of Alpha Jason of Crescent moon pack,” I said, breathing heavily and I heard Nicholas groan. I didn’t have a wolf, yet I could feel the excruciating pains, then what about him? I smiled like a maniac.I looked around the crowd and saw everyone with their partner, even Sarah had her male, Nicholas, future beta Jackson. Good for her, at least we have something to discuss later, I smiled at her and I immediately groaned when she gave me a sympathetic smile.“As of today I Alpha Jason banish Andrea Carlson from the pack, and she will be a rogue,” Alpha said with finality. What! Why am I being banished, I didn’t do anything. I didn't ask the moon Goddess to make me wolfless or be your son’s mate.“Alpha Jason, Please.” I went on my knees. I don’t have anywhere to go, I don’t know anyone out there, and I’ve heard the life of a rogue isn’t an easy one. Furthermore, I don’t have my wolf, how am I going to survive in the wild?“Alpha please,” I begged, holding his legs.“I will do anything, you can give me more work and I won’t complain. You can toss me out of the basement, but please don’t banish me, I'm sorry if I became Nicholas's mate. I’m sorry.” I cried and the next thing I received was a slap, with the power I knew it was the Luna. Funny how I’ve come to know who slaps me. I turned to her and saw the hateful glare in her eyes, what did I do for you to hate me like this? I can’t remember my childhood memories to know what I did to her or her family.“It’s Prince Nicholas to you, how dare a lowlife rogue like you call my son by his name.” She shouted, and I shook my head.“I’m sorry Luna, I won’t do it again, please don’t drive me out of the pack. This is my family, this is where I want to be.” I said, and I could see a hint of shock in her eyes, she faced the Alpha and nodded.“Guards, take her out of the borders.” He ordered and two hefty guards stepped forward, they bowed at the Alpha before picking me up from the floor.“Please don’t drive me out, please Nick. I won’t come close to you or your chosen mate, please, Nick. ” I pleaded, looking at Nicholas's eyes, and he stared at me before turning his face away. My shoulder slumped and I became numb, I was once again abandoned by everyone. I let the guards drag me out, and I could hear footsteps running behind me, I turned to see Sarah.“Andrea.” She called out, crying profusely.I smiled weakly before saying “Don’t cry Sarah, you just got your mate. Be happy and don’t think of me, I'm always a failure.” She shook her head.“No, no you’re not, you’re not a failure, Andrea. I believe whatever is happening is the Goddess's will, don’t die, Andrea, live and fight your enemies. You will show them that you’re not the weak omega they pictured you as, okay.” I nodded with tears coming out of my eyes.“I promise.” We hugged for the last time.“We’re here.” One of the guards said and pulled me from the hug.“Reject your connection to the pack, rogue.” Another added.“I Andrea Carlson reject my connection with the Crescent moon pack.” And again another heart-wrenching pain hits me. I waved at Sarah for the last time before walking into the eerily dark forest, and a sense of nostalgia hit me. I stared everywhere, it was like I had been here before but couldn’t say how and when. I walked mindlessly in the forest with nowhere to go, I took a rest at an old tree and closed my eyes. * I’ve found my mate, but she’s unworthy to be my Luna and your future Luna *“Unworthy he says.” I scoffed in tears. I feel suffocating and tired, they all betrayed me when I was at my lowest. I didn’t ask the moon Goddess to pair me with him, so why am I suffering for it?“YOU ARE CRUEL SELENE, YOU HEAR ME YOU ARE CRUEL. I HATE YOU FOR BRINGING PAIN TO ME, I HATE YOU SO MUCH.” I yelled, beating my chest. I checked my surroundings to see for any danger lurking around and after seeing none, I laid back on the tree still crying, and tried to sleep.“You are so cruel, Selene,” I whisper before dozing off.****DANTE. I found myself staring at my pack getting burned down by the witches, wolves getting slated like animals. “Dante, take your sister and get out of here.” Someone yelled, and I turned to see it was my dad. Dad.“Dante go.” My mum yelled at me and I snapped out of my trance. I looked around and saw everything going down, nothing was saved. “Dante, go now.” Dad yelled again, fighting against four wolves at the same time. No, I can’t leave them here, I need to do something. “I can’t leave you dad, tell me what to do.” I ran to him, and he growled using his Alpha voice. “Take your little sister and get out of this pack, right now.” He ordered and I nodded. I went behind the tree Alesia was hiding and brought her out. “Where are we going Dante?, what’s happening?” She hugged me, crying silently on my shoulder. “Shhh, everything will be fine.” I reassured, and even I wasn’t sure of what I was saying.” I turned to look at my parents the last time, but what I saw shocked me. “No
ANDREA. I stirred awake when I heard some muffled noise in the forest, the sound of footsteps running and a growl. I opened my eyes slowly to see what had invaded my space and was shocked when I saw a wolf, a midnight black wolf with red blazing eyes. I stood up with speed and made to run, but someone held me back, I turned to see a naked man with a frown and a look of irritation on his face. “Please don’t kill me.” I begged and tried to free myself from him, but his hold on my gown tightened. “Please.” I muttered with tears already coming out of my eyes. I can’t die like this, not when I haven’t met my mate yet. Please help me mum, dad, wherever you are, please help me. “What are you doing here, rogue?” The man asked with a growl, and I shrink into my shell more. I don’t know what to say, I don’t know whether I’m going to live or not. “I asked a question rogue, what are you doing here?” He snapped, and I was forced to open my sealed mouth. “I..... I ...... I” I couldn’t form a
Chapter seven. DANTE. I ran in speed through the forest, growling and saying cusses to the moon Goddess. How could she play a game with my soul like this, I didn’t ask for another ‘mate’. I don’t want one, not now, not ever. I growled and paused, I changed into my human form, hitting the nearest tree. I yelled as I continued hitting it until a huge dent appeared on it. I sighed, I sat on a huge rock thinking about this new development of my second ‘mate’. I don’t want one, I told you Selene I didn’t want another one, another one that would betray me, my trust and my pack. I will just reject her and kill her, leaving her in my pack isn’t safe. Not only that, but I need to eliminate her to keep me sane and my pack safe. “I know you’ll be here.” I didn’t turn to see whoever it was because I already knew it was Fred. “I told you to stay in the pack, Fred.” I snarled. I stared ahead of the water fall. “I couldn’t stay when I know you need someone to talk to.” He took a seat beside me
ANDREA I was lying on the cold ground of the cell. Lying with dried bones didn’t sit too well for me, but I was tired and needed to rest. My stomach grumbles for the umpteenth time today, and that’s a reminder that my stomach was empty, with the rush of the party last night I couldn’t stomach any food and I thought I would have a chance to taste some food, but who am I kidding. I sighed again and sniffed, I swallowed the tears wanting to come out. I’ve promised myself that I won’t cry, whatever that’s coming my way I’ll accept it, even death. My closed eyes snapped open when I heard the huge door opened, I got up to see who walked in or who they brought in. But imagine my surprise when I saw it was that Fred guy from earlier, I stared at him consciously as he inserts the key and opened the door of my cell. “Come on.” He waved at me to come out. “Where are you taking me?” I asked. I know I just said I’ve accepted death, but I want to avoid dying. I’m too young to die. I took slow s
ANDREA By the time I woke, it was dark. Amy, Emma, and another girl were in the room. I yawned and stretched, I really needed that sleep and I felt refreshed. I haven’t had a good sleep like this since years. “You’re up sleepy head.” Amy said and I blushed. I’m still not used to anyone talking to me, except Sarah. Sarah, I miss her so much. She would be mated by now, and I guess they’ll have their pup soon. “Yeah.” The other girl whose name I haven’t gotten was staring at me. “Andrea, this is Liliana, our other roommate.” Emma introduced, and I smiled at her. “Nice meeting you, Liliana.” She turned her head to the other side without saying anything. Okay, that was weird. A bell rang, and I turned my attention to Emma, who was equally staring at me. “That’s our cue for dinner.” She dragged my hand out of the room, Amy and Liliana followed behind. We got to a huge door, and she opened it and asked me to go in, I stepped in and saw other girls and boys, but mostly girls. There was
ANDREA. I got up before any of the girls, they were sleeping like logs when I took my bath and when I came out, they were still sleeping. I thought they had work to do, I sighed and took a seat on my bed. I wonder how everyone in the pack was doing, especially Sarah. She just got her mate and she will need someone to be with her, someone she can talk to, give all her juicy details about how her night went. But I wasn’t there, I wasn’t there for her. Alpha Jason banished me for getting mates to his son, Nicholas. I wonder how he’s doing now, was he still dealing with the heartache and pains of rejecting me or was he searching for a new mate. I sighed again as I stared around the room, I could cope here, do everything they do and make sure not to get into the Alpha’s bad book. I wouldn’t want to be banished for the second time. “Hey, Andrea.” A soft voice called, and I snapped my head to the other side. Nana Gina was standing at the door with her usual friendly and homely smile. When
DANTE’S POV. I thrust deeper into the female wolf I was fucking, God I can’t get her scent from my head. I can’t get her eyes, the way she looked at me from my head. The wolf was whimpering and moaning beneath me, her body writhing in pleasure and I can feel my release building. I growl and nip at her neck, as I come inside her. As soon as I release her, I get up and walk away, needing to get away from her. I entered my bathroom and turned on the shower, letting the cold water pour on me. I scrubbed at my skin, trying to get rid of the her scent, but it was no use. Even after fucking a female, her scent was still on my skin and I felt awful. I can’t shake her from my mind and I know I never will.can’t shake her from my mind and I know I never will. i don’t know why Selene decided to bring me another mate, another betrauma, but I know I won’t be able to keep myself from her. Blaze wants her as much as I do but I don’t want her to make me make the same mistake I did the last time.
ANDREA’S POV. I hummed a song as I picked the baskets of vegetables that needed to be taken to the orphanage. I felt someone piercing gaze on me, but when I looked around, I could see anyone. I shrugged it off as nothing and continued with my task. As I was about to leave, I heard a whisper from behind me.“Andrea, you are early.” I turned around and saw a tall figure standing there. He had a kind smile and a gentle voice, and I immediately knew who he was.“Andrew! It's so nice to see you!” I exclaimed, running towards him, giving him a hug.He hugged me back and smiled. “It's good to see you too, my dear. You have been a great help to us, and we are grateful for that.”I smiled and thanked him, “it's my job and I love doing it.” We’ve gotten close with the few days I’ve spent here in the farm and Andrew is really a nice person. He doesn’t treat me differently from the rest pack members, he treats me like I’m one of them and I’m grateful. “Okay, you’re taking these vegetables to
