Chapter 9
Cass's POV
I was done a little earlier than I anticipated and decided to just relax the rest of the evening. I loaded up in my good ole Jeep, and went by and got mine and Alex's favorite Chinese takeout. I then headed to my home. I live on the outskirts of the city. It was my attempt at being as secluded as possible in the event that I had a melt down or something. It also allowed me to shift whenever I wanted to. I had very few neighbors way out here. Alex lived closer to the university, but stayed over a couple nights a week. I stayed with him occasionally, but I always claimed that I slept better in my own bed. It probably sounded extremely upity, but Alex never complained. I think if I was happy, he was happy. We both knew eventually we would need to sort out where we would live after we got married. If I am being honest I don't know how I would live in the city and keep my sanity. There are always so many noises and smells. It wears me out.

The Unchosen Path Chapter 10
Cass's POVWith unnatural speed I raced over and grabbed the phone from Alex. I made sure he hadn't pressed SEND yet before putting the phone down on the table. Seeing that he hadn't, I breathed a temporary sigh of relief."What are you doing babe? There's something not right about those men." There was worry laced in every word.I sighed and closed my eyes. I had been in denial. I really thought I could keep this day from ever coming. I thought if I laid low and minded my own business that the werewolves would stay away.Dragging Alex into this world was the last thing I ever wanted to do. Hell, this world was a mystery to even me. I wasn't a part of it. There was knowledge available in writings throughout history that anyone could dig up. The little details about lycans and werewovles is where my lack of knowledge were going to eventually put me and my loved ones in danger. Unfortunately it seemed that eventually had come.
The Unchosen Path Chapter 11
Cass's POV"Show Me."I should have expected this, but I wasn't going to budge. He couldn't force me to shift even with all the power he was subtly sending at me in waves. I stood my ground, and held his gaze. Even with his exuding power, I felt no malice. I stayed calm and kept my heart rate steady. I saw no reason to fly off the handle.After only a few more seconds, Alpha Marcus smiled a big toothy grin and began to chuckle. "I'm sorry my dear, Cassandra. I had to try!"I couldn't help but smile back, and let out a small laugh myself. It suddenly occurred to me that I was choosing to let this man and his friends into my life. I was choosing to trust him. "Alpha Marcus, I would like to learn more about the Were community and hopefully in turn learn some more about myself -"Before I could finish my sentence, the all too familiar feeling of burning from the inside out hit me. Without meaning to I let out a hiss in pain
The Unchosen Path Chapter 12
Cass's POVAfter Alex had gone home to finish paperwork and to prep for his Tuesday classes, I called my dad. I talked to him for an hour about what had transpired. Of course he was cautious and worried about the fact that other knew a little about what I was now, but I assured him that I felt nothing off about the situation. If anything it all felt right.Alpha Marcus contacted me the next morning and asked if I would be willing to meet him for dinner after I completed my lectures for the day. There were some things he wanted to discuss with me. For some reason I trusted this man. He reminded me of my father a little bit I suppose. It was also a bit refreshing to not feel like he was out to get anything from me. I stayed to myself so it's not like I'd ever really been used, but to say that I wasn't paranoid about what would happen once my secret was out would be a lie._______________________________________________Walking into th
The Unchosen Path Chapter 13
*CASS'S POV* The two alphas looked at me as if I had lost my mind. I guess I had in a sense. I was losing my cool. I couldn't handle getting this information in public. I turned and walked briskly out of th restaurant. Great! Just great! Alpha Osirus probably thinks I am complete loose canon. Although, truth be told that's what I felt like. I was pissed. Pissed about everything. Why me? Why did I have to be, THIS? On top of that, I had caused a Historical Event. If I did ever try to join the Were community, what would they think of me? Would they blame me? I don't even know what happened totally, and I blame me. Would they hate me? Would they be scared of me? After jumping into my Jeep, I raced out of the city as fast as I could, traffic laws be damned. I was itching to run free. I felt like I couldn't get there fast enough. This was the information I had been after for so long, but it wasn't what I thought it would be. Don't ask me what I thought I was
The Unchosen Path Chapter 14
EZRA'S POV It had been a couple days since I pulled up that social media profile. I knew I shouldn't have. There must be some mistake. I was with her that day. I could smell her and sensed nothing but the human she is. It's going to take a lot more than Vivian's dramatic ass to convince me that they don't have it all wrong. Still. Why can't I controll my anger? I rejected her. I feel nothing. It's just shock. It has to be. I'm the most powerful Alpha in this country. This should be easy for me. So why wasn't it? Why? Why now? Why is the moon godess doing this to me? Punishment I suppose for rejecting my mate. Anyone in my position would have done the same thing. ANYONE. So, I refuse to feel guilty. The vibration of the cell phone in my pocket pulled me from my whirlwind of irritating thoughts. The caller ID informed me that it was my father. Good. Maybe he's gone down there with my uncle and discovered that Viv's claims were wrong.
The Unchosen Path Chapter 15
EZRA'S POV Stalker. That's what I was. A fucking stalker. Fuck me. I had to see her ahead of the meeting though. Away from prying eyes. I needed to be able to see if the mate bond still possessed a pull. I hoped to the godess that it didn't. I have too much shit going on right now to deal with this. I watched her get out of her older black jeep. The instant she got out though, she went rigid. She started looking around not so subtly. Holy shit, she could sense me. Dad wasn't kidding. She was fucking powerful. It's nothing to sense someone crossing your own territory border that isn't a member of your pack. It's nothing to sense another wolf in the same room. We were in neither of those situations. I was well over 250 yards away from her and she could sense me! Fucking hell. I ran my hands over my short hair for what was probably the millionth time since I got off th plane last night. Then the breeze shifted. The second my scent hit her nos
The Unchosen Path Chapter 16
CASS'S POV Rejected. I couldn't believe it. I'd gotten so lost in my own thoughts I had almost forgotten that Vivian was sitting across from me. I was snapped back to reality when the waitress brought our food to the table. She had a puzzled look on her face at the absence of Ezra, but didn't say anything. She just placed the food down, smiled and left. Something didn't make sense though. Why did I have those episodes? "Vivian, if I've met my mate. What would be causing me to feel like my body was on fire?" Vivian broke eye contact. She clearly was getting cold feet about whatever she thought the cause was. "Um. The only thing I've ever heard of causing pain like that, is when..." She took a deep breath, "It's when your mate is with another. You know, like intimately." I was speechless. He was with other women. I had been rejected. But when? I didn't even know what I was back when we first met. He must have th
The Unchosen Path Chapter 17
CASS'S POV Ezra ran away leaving me more confused than I had ever been. He didn't want me to accept his rejection. Why? I sat by the creek letting the moon wash over me. I knew Ezra was long gone. I could no longer smell him or sense his aura. I was both grateful and sad. I would need to resolve this sooner than later. A slight breeze picked up blowing a scent that burned my nose. I'd never smelled anything like it. It was sweet, but something about it made bile rise up in my throat. I crouched down looking in the direction of the scent, trying to see something, anything. I could only see darkness and shadows. I finally sensed movement, but from three separate directions. Whatever they were, they were moving fast. I needed to move. I bolted up the hill toward my house. Dodging the trees flawlessly. I had made this run so many times I could probably do it blindfolded. Although, truthfully I had never made it quite this fast.
