Selene's Pov"We have a traitor amongst us." Noir's voice sounded through the woods, and I felt my heart stopped racing.Her smirk alone sent chills down my spine, and I gasped in shock on realizing the phone in her hand. How did she get it? Did she see any text from my father? How did she know? Series of questions ran through my head in a space of one second.Unanswered questions.Her eyes were filled with an evil gleam and anger underneath the fierce knowing look she gave me.And I knew instantly what she was about saying. My eyes glittered with unshed tears as Damon stood up from my side."What is it again this time, Noir?" He yelled with his Alpha tone while I cowered in fear from the tone of his voice, along with the other wolves shaking in fright around him."Alpha. Do you even know the kind of mate you have?" Noir's voice echo like venom in my ears as I swallowed hard.Her eyes were not leaving mine and I felt all the hair on the back of my neck rose in an instant from panic.
Kayla's POV. "What?"Damon's voice froze me in place and I felt more tears escape my eyes. No. No."This is all a set up, believe me. I hadn't-""That voice was yours!" Damon yelled back at me cutting me short, as he finally turned to me the first time and the fierce anger in his eyes had me taking a step backwards. His loving oceanic blue eyes were filled with rage, as they turned cold like the first time he met and rejected me at the wolves pack conference.No.. please, don't look at me that way. Please, don't. "I.. I ..""You used me" Damon cut me short yet again."How could you be this evil? Was this your plan all along? To make me fall for you and then get information about my pack and discard me like a piece of trash bin?" Damon asked, taking a threatening step towards me and for a second, I noticed a pang of pain flash through his eyes."No, no please, believe me. My father-""Sent you here to watch me, find my weak points so he can overthrow my pack. All that talk about yo
Damon's POV."I, Damon Khal, Alpha of green moss pack, reject Selene of the west crescent pack as my mate." The words were out of my mouth even before I could stop it. But I didn't regret it either, I was bleeding inside, I was too hurt to start processing my words or emotions.I felt Selene stiffen, her blue eyes filled with tears as she watched me in disbelief. The metal of the necklace felt cold under my fingers and I turned away from her to Christian who stood just as shocked as Selene was."Escort her back to her pack." I said to him and walked away without minding a glance at her.I didn't hear a word from Selene as she tried to process what she just heard me say to her. I didn't turn to look at her and I started to feel guilty for rejecting her.What the hell was I thinking? I scolded myself but then Noir's words lingered in my head and I frowned.A pang of pain lacerated my heart and I staggered, stopping in my tracks as I clenched my fist. I was feeling so many emotions at
Selene's PovI stopped struggling. For the first time in a minute I took a deep breath. I couldn't feel, not understand what Damon had just said.Unimaginable pain filled me and I couldn't process it, but it created a deep hole in my heart.A tear finally crept out of my face. Damon had rejected me.He had rejected me as his mate.Another tear rolled down my cheeks as the image of us together in the few moments we've been together flashed across my eyes. That night we ate noodles and he fed me, the day we watched the stars together and tonight when he looked at my wolf like it was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen.Him confessing his live for me, his warm touch against my face trailing down my neck, my shoulders and arms. His soft lips against mine, taking control, dominating and filling me to the very core.Those things would be no more. His care and protection, those cold oceanic blue eyes that softened at the sight of me. Another tear ran down my cheeks, and another ye
Selene's POV.When I finally opened my eyes, it was because of the sounds of foots around the woods, the sun was almost up in the air as the heat burned against my skin and the small stones and sand which piece into my naked flesh. I was awake now but I couldn't feel anything. The sound of foots running closer did nothing to change my mood as their scent filled my nostrils, along with the familiar scents was my father and I knew what came next. But I did nothing to acknowledge their presence as they finally reached me.My father's grey eyes came in view. He was just like I had left him, except the morning beard that filled his jaws.His black hair had grown longer too, falling over his shoulders. His eyes were just as cold but this time, they were filled with amusement, and his lips turned into a smirk as he looked down at me.I said nothing as he reached for my face and ran those calloused fingers down my cheeks before grabbing my jaw roughly."I see you've been caught. But you'v
Damon's POV.I couldn't sleep.It's been three days and I still couldn't think straight. I was making mistakes, heading to different wrong directions and misdirecting the pack and the orders.I had never been dis co-ordinated in my life before but these past three days felt like I was no longer the person I used to be.Every thought of mine was filled with images of Selene. And when I tried to relive all of the good times we had spent together, the betrayal struck me hard like tons of bricks being thrown at me all at once.It was the fact that I had been hurt, but I thought I would have been able to get over it in less than twenty-four hours but I was wrong.It's been three times since that and I still couldn't think of anything other than her.Worse if everything, I couldn't sit down and just cry over it. I had work to do. The betrayal had struck the pack so hard and there was disorderliness around, a lot of people had lost respect for my judgement and they had started to doubt my r
Selene's PovThe sound of heavy footsteps woke me up from the usual nightmare I have been having for days and I had even lost count of how many times. My eyes opened and I was met with darkness once again. I didn't remember when last I had seen sunlight and I didn't even know if it was day nor night.All I knew was that it was always dark and cold, and the only thing I kept thinking of was Damon. He filled my mind every single moment and if I wasn't dreaming about him, I was imagining him here, holding me and loving me once more.The sound of the door opening had me struggling to look up but I was too tired to even raise a finger and I stayed the way I was.Someone must have come earlier because my hands were no more shackled above me, I was lying on the cold floor, close to the wall to offer some warmth but it was useless as I was naked.The door opened and I saw the feet of the person. But with the aura that filled the room, I knew who it was without seeing the face.This had to
Selene's POV.The sound of people moving about the tower outside made me feel uneasy. Sounds of orders, guns firing as if testing the weapons, swords clashing out of their shields.My father was a bit old fashioned so he rarely used modern weapons except if it was necessary.I laid on the floor unable to move, weak and tired, Damon crossed my mind too many times for me to count and I could only pray he had moved the pack somewhere else because my father's pack already had a strategic plan to defeat him.My mind wandered back to that night unconsciously, I hadn't remembered when I ever sent my father the location of the warehouse, it broke me that I hadn't been able to tell Damon that.The voices of men shouting filled the room once more and I worried about Damon the more. He probably wasn't expecting my father to raid his pack so soon. Everyone there was in danger and there was nothing I could do about it.I started to cry, I was truly a coward, everything I had learnt with Christian
