Chapter 3

Elena's Pov

" Blake," I called. " Blake!" My voice was louder this time, as he slammed the door shut. " No no no no... This can't be happening!" I cried, my voice cutting through the room. 

Tears slowly cascaded down my eyes like never before, for the first time in 8 years, I cried. Why? Why does Jayden have to come back? Why does he have to show up in the picture? 

I knew this day would come, I knew it! I gripped the duvet tightly as it was the only thing that could cover my sorrows at this moment, nothing else could do it. " Why!" I cried, my voice echoed through the corridors of this mansion. 

I stared at the ceiling as this room itself became my boredom. I stared as the chandelier kept rolling with the support of the ropes. I lowered my gaze, staring blankly at the lantern beside me. My mind clouded with thoughts of the past. 

Questions rising from every corner. What should I do? If I thought of my sorrows, what about my son? Will he be fatherless? Damn! I was left in a tight corner. No alternative. 

'Lena,' my wolf called. She cooed, her voice was funny, but I ain't in the mood. 

" Evie, it's not now." I wonder why she never calls when I need her the most and just comes when I need to think.

" Lena, you have to think this through." She said, her voice, soft. 

I sat straight, covering my hands above my ears not wanting to hear whatever she had to say anymore as her words irritated me. 

" No." I snapped, " there is nothing to think through!" I yelled, " Jayden can't take my son from me! He ruined me first, I won't let him!" I yelled, my voice echoing through the room as the fire of rage simmer through my veins. At that moment, I shut the link.

" What do you mean?" I heard Blake's voice. And the next second, he was back in front of me, staring like the whole world revolves around this room. 

I stared at him, my hands trembling. What the f**k? I just forgot this whole building is made from him, and he could hear everything that happens in this whole palace? Why did I become so dumb? 

" Nothing," I said hurriedly. Almost immediately, I laid down back, covering my face with the duvet. It was the only thing I could do to escape him. I knew he wouldn't complain about the slap, but I still felt my heart ache because of the slap alone, he was innocent. 

He didn't touch me, didn't even ask again, he just remained quiet. Like nothing's happening. I didn't drop the duvet, I stayed that way until I finally got tired of the darkness, drowning in it.

My eyes fluttered open, I turned my head towards the window. Immediately, I dragged myself out of bed. I stared as the bright golden sun casted the shadows at the corners of the room. I let out a deep sigh, swallowing the lumps in my throat although it's dry and sore down there. 

The door creeped open behind me drawing my attention, almost immediately, I turned, only to find Blake standing right there. His face held something I could not wrap my fingers around. At that moment, my mind drifted back to the moment I slapped him last night. 

I walked up to him, raising my hand and carefully placing it across his cheek. " I'm sorry," I said my voice, low and subtle

" I'm sorry for yelling, or slapping you unprovoked. I am sorry." I said, my voice trembling beneath. 

He let out a deep sigh, smiling. " It's nothing, you weren't in the right state of mind yesterday." 

Before I could think of an answer, a loud knock rattled the door, demanding an immediate answer. 

" Who goes there?" I said, rubbing off the tears on my face. Now it's time to be a Luna, the light headed one. 

I strode towards the door, immediately I swung it open. Only to see the one figure I didn't expect this morning, elder Stilinski. He stood there chin straight, his eyes bored into my soul. 

" Oh, great Mr. Stilinski!" I said dramatically, a wide smile tugged across my lips. I turned to look at Blake who just stared for a while before coming close.

" Good morning Luna!" He said, bowing curtly. 

" Oh, so sorry for my bad manners. Good morning!" I said, my face flushed. 

" Alpha, we need to talk." He said, " It's about your mate's behaviour." He added. 

I stared at him, confused. What's about my behaviour? Without a word, I turned to look at Blake, he stared at me, saying nothing. " My office." He bellowed, almost immediately, he walked out of the room. 

With that, the elder trailed behind him, while I followed suit. I stared at the elder's back line, my mind filled with multiple questions, what have I done? What's my mistake? What didn't I do right?

As soon as we got to Blake's office, he led us straight into the meeting room where the rest of the Elders were waiting for us. I walked round the oak table, sitting close to Blake's chair. Afterward, Blake sat right beside me. 

" Why the early call?" Blake asked, 

" Alpha, it's about your mate's indecent behaviour." Elder Selene said, she sat right on my left, her chin straight as she stared right into Blake's eyes. 

" Can you please tell me how indecentー" Before I could ask the question, or even say the last word, Blake cut me short. 

" Last I remember she did nothing to affect the elders or the Pack's image." He said, his voice cold, sharp as a blade. 

Before the elders could finish their words, the door swung open revealing Gabriel, he was panting like he was chased by Blake himself. Yeah, by Blake, they both are boss and assistants but they act like the whole world is a playground when they want. 

" Luna, Moses is convulsing!" He said. 

" What?" I yelled, " then why are you here? Get him straight to my goddamn room!" I yelled, jumping to my feet as I

sprinted out of the meeting room. Not waiting for anyone, not even Blake.
