Chapter 5

Luther POV 

I was a bit confused when I heard her say it, I was filled with both doubt and confusion. There was no way Selena had rejected me like that, I know that it was a bit much but for her to even think of that. 

“What did you say?” I managed to force some words out of my mouth when I was looking at her, I was filled with confusion. 

Selena was looking at me, I could see the tears welling up in her eyes and how she was fighting them back. I couldn't bring myself to think of how hurt she was or how alone she was feeling at that moment. 

“I reject you Alpha Luther as my mate and my husband,”  Selena said with all the strength in her body, she was not going to stand there and watch me make her do something that she didn't want to do. 

Selena had thrown the check I gave her to the floor, I knew that there was no way for me to even make her come back to me after all I had done. But I was not going to stand there and watch her walk out of my life like that. 

I turned to grab hold of her, but she was already out the door. I could see her walking at a fast pace trying to make sure that there was no way for me to catch up. 

‘She is probably heading home,’ I thought to myself, nothing was going to make me think of something else for the moment, I wanted to make sure that I had settled everything before going for Selena. 

“How dare she?! She is nothing but a nobody that you found and changed her life, why is she acting like that?” Anna was cursing Selena with everything she had in her, it was clear that she was not going to be saying anything other than the curses she had in her mouth. 

“Son, don't tell me that you are going to let her walk away like that? She has insulted you and nobody can insult the Alpha and walk away with it, you have to make sure that there is no way for her to even insult you.” My mother spoke up, she was also trying to make sure that I forced Selena into taking the punishment for the accident. 

I had enough... 

“Mother, Anna, can I have a word with Adriane alone please?” I said calmly, there was no sign of hostility in my voice. 

My mother didn't want to listen, she was trying to get me to do something about Selena. She continued with her complaints. “But son she just insulted you and you are not acting like..” 

“Mother I asked you for a moment with Adriane and nothing else please,” I turned, I was making sure that there was no sign of rage in my voice to make sure that nothing was going to make her think that I was trying to be disrespectful, I looked at them with the anger in my heart and voice. 

My mother didn't say anything, she stood there looking at me for some minutes before she made her way out of the room. Anna followed her closely, I was not going to say another word but look down at my feet. 

I turned to look at Adriane, I was sure she was still stunned after everything that was happening right in front of her. It was a bit strange that there was so much drama happening in front of her like there was a sale happening in front of her. 

“I will make sure that there is something done about the whole situation, I want you to rest easy knowing that there is nothing going to happen to you.” I was trying to make sure she was going to be okay and there was no way for her to even think of anything that would make her feel hurt in any way. 

Adriane nodded her head slowly, I was not even sure what I was going to be doing when I caught up to Selena I would look for a way to make sure that I explained why it is important that nothing happens to Adraine. 

“I will be back so please don't worry about a thing,” I told Adriane that I was coming back, I wanted to know where Selena had gone with all the wounds on her body. 

I walked out of the ward to look in front of the hospital if I would be able to see any trace of her there, but there was no sign of Selena, I knew it was strange that she was able to move that fast and it was like she had left the area. 

“I don't know where I am going to look for her now,” I was a bit stunned when there was no trace of her being close by and it was alarming.

“I was not blind to see that she needed help but she was going to act like there was no way she would be able to last with all those wounds on her body.” My thoughts were running wild when I looked around and there was no sign of Selena anywhere, I wondered if she had gone back to the pack house. 

I had felt something earlier, but it was clear she had not yet severed our tie as mates, even though she rejected me she didn't sever the tie but the only problem was that I could not feel her anywhere close by. 

‘Strange, feels like I have lost almost all connections to her and there is nothing coming up, I wonder where she is now.” I couldn't put my thoughts on one thing, it was like she had vanished without a trace. 

Beep... Beep… 

I felt a slight buzz in my pockets, I took out my phone to see it was one of the pack elders calling me to know what I was going to do about the whole situation. 

“Hello, Elder Nathan what might be the problem?” I asked even though I knew why he was calling me I wanted to hear him say it and he was not going to let me breathe until I made a decision. 

“We are still waiting for your decision, there is no way we are going to let that kind of thing happen in our pack with nothing to show for it. It would give us a bad name and I know you don't want that.” The old wolf sounded like he was a crafty fox, I was not even shocked to hear him sound like that but I was still trying to make sure that there was nothing out of place. 

“Dont worry Elder Nathan, I will give you my decision soon. I will have to hang up now.” I ended the call, I was not in the mood to explain anything to him and I knew that it was something that no one would even want to hear.

For now, I wanted to know where Selena was hiding.
