Mere warrior

Chapter two

Ariel marveled at how handsome he was under the moonlight. He had a magnificent physique

They was no need to speak as their gazes on each other with the evident broad smile on their faces said it all.

Zeres observed his mate with admiration. He was happy at the same time he wanted to badly curse the moon goddess for having to pair him with the Alpha's daughter, his enemy. It wasn't now he was almost.. almost close to fulfilling his goals. At the thought of letting her go, his wolf whimpered. He wanted to ruffle his hair in frustration.

Ariel felt an inexplainable urge to kiss his delicate full lips. She controlled the urge, even though he was her mate she wouldn't want to look cheap in front of him.

"You are the Alpha's daughter, sorry to bump into you." Zeres apologized with a lowered head, it was better to act indifferent to the brewing mate pull. This was the right time to cut all ties even before there relationship intensifies.

Ariel was a bit dumbfounded at the sudden change in character by her mate. It irked her to no extent. She was sure he felt that pull and tingling spark just a moment ago. Why was he acting so indifferent??. She wondered if the moon goddess paired her with a bipolar Werewolf.

"You can call me Ariel, I don't mind. After all you must be..." She paused and ran her eyes over him to determine his calibre. By the broad shoulders he had, he could pass for a very powerful Werewolf, she could feel an almost intense aura oozing from him.

"You must be very powerful" she concluded with a smile. Zeres let out a chuckle.

"Yes I'm a bit powerful....

"I knew you were, anyways the party started a long time ago, why are you here??". Ariel cut Zeres shut at least she was happy her mate was someone she could introduce to her father.

"Because the mere warriors aren't allowed in the party"

"What does that have to do with you being in the party??"she questioned. She was confused as to why he was bothered about the warriors not been in allowed at the party.

"Because I am a warrior too, milady"

Warrior??. He was a common warrior. Is the moon goddess playing jokes with her??. She was the Alpha's daughter and the future female Alpha of this pack. She couldn't believe she was mated to a common warrior. Her father would never agree to this

Ariel inhaled, her chest heavy and she took a step backwards, it will be better to stop this madness right now.

"I, Ariel the daughter of Alpha of blue moon pack reject you, with the moon light as my witness" . Ariel said with an intense difficulty.

Her heart ached and her wolf protested. An unhidden anguish appeared on Zeres face. He didn't expect rejection to be this painful.

"Do something boy" his wolf said a complete sentence with a growl. Zeres wanted to be shocked but the pain in his heart was too intense. it was unheard for a wolf to make a statement. They only spoke when it's to alert the presence of a mate.

Ariel forced herself to move, she didn't even wait to know if her mate whom she didn't even get his name accepted her rejection.

The party was almost over and she didn't even want to go back there because she looked miserable right now. She wouldn't want the guests to see her in this state.

She headed back to her room. Her wolf retracted at the back of her mind. She could feel it sulking and that only added to her misery.

Zeres was aware of the inability for them to be together, but he couldn't believe that rejection was far worst. He hissed in pain and ruffled his neat hair, he had wanted to deny her but.. but he couldn't believe she did it first.

He had expected for her to be the one to succumb to him and fight for her soulmate but she rejected him because he was a "warrior". He could feel his anger intensifying as he thought of it.

He also wanted to have nothing to do with his enemies daughter but he was having two thoughts about it but she... She rebuffed him at the mention of him being a warrior.

He wondered what he had expected from Alpha Daniel Fenlon's descendant. The blue moon pack was founded by power thirsty people and they all wanted people who could increase their opulence.

He was disgusted by the moon goddess choice of a mate for him.

Zeres stood in the dark at the position Ariel left him reeling on his anger. His wolf was fighting for the urge to take over. It wanted to be left free and move it paws on the ground to calm his anger. He howled, his clothes tore into streak of pieces and his eyes turned into blood shot red a stark contrast to his normal blue eye colour as he shifted into his white wolf form.

Ariel laid on the bed, her eyes puffy as a result of tears she had shed. Ariel didn't rebuff her mate on a caprice. She was smart and knew perfectly well the consequences of accepting him. It could result In his death and she wouldn't want to be the cause of her mates lost of life.

Alpha Damon was someone who saw Ariel as a means of increasing their position as the number one in the power ladder. He was obsessed with affluence, it was something she saw evidently in her father. She knew how irrational it was to scrap the mate pull but it was better now than never.

She hoped the mysterious warrior who is her mate could just forget he had ever met her.

She sighed for the umpteenth time since the day began. So many things happened just in one day of her coming back. The day was a such a roller coaster of events and lots of emotions haywire everywhere for her. She hoped that by the time she wakes up the next morning she would have forgotten about the sweet vanilla scented creature with a gorgeous face and body she had met today and her life will return back to normal.
