Chapter 10.Laura's POV.I sighed when he left, holding my heart, it was beating crazily, I wondered where I had the guts to talk to him that way.He already showed me how much he disliked me, and I still did that, I knew I was in deep trouble.I could still feel the stares of his pack members, some laughed and I felt humiliated that he left me here."She thinks she's Luna, to talk to the alpha that way." One said and I swallowed feeling extremely embarrassed."She's just a rogue, she's lucky the alpha hasn't killed her yet." Another said and I looked around trying to find a way out of here, I figured I was going to be okay once I stayed in the room.I didn't know my way around, and with the stares and talks I heard, I wanted this ground to swallow me than stand here and hear them talk to me.Suddenly, I remembered how I stood in the middle and my former pack members talked to me and insulted me, it felt like that right now, I swallowed looking away, wishing anyone would come help me,
Chapter 11.Laura's POV.I held my breath releasing it after every one minute as I walked around the pack searching for him. I wanted to tell him how I felt, and also apologize.It was weird to find someone who cared about me or even did something for my benefit, so I couldn't believe it totally.He didn't reject me, I kept repeating this in my head the first day I found out we were mates, I expected another rejection, yet from what I saw, he was upset with whoever rejected me.It made me delightful that I was wanted by someone for the first time, I wasn't discarded or thrown around, like my first mate and my parents who never cared about me.I could see glances from the pack members yet I held my head high, they didn't know me, and I didn't know them either."Hey where are you going?" I turned to the voice, I saw a blonde girl glare at me, and I sighed, wondering what it was."I'm going somewhere." I said finally finding my voice after staring at her for a while."I heard you're the
Chapter 12.Laura's POV.When he said that, I bit my lips and his nose flared."I don't know why you're hot and cold, and why you acted extra nice making me feel close to you, even my wolf likes you, and then you act all cold pushing me away." I sighed."I'm sorry for comparing you to him." I said and he nodded."I'm also sorry for being that way with you, I feel the mate pull so much, and it's really making me crazy for you, and this mate thing is new for me, so it's hard." He said ruffling his hair.I walked closer to him and he inhaled, dragging me with him, we went back inside, he slammed me against the wall.His face came to my neck and he inhaled again, I could feel his smile, he kissed my neck and I shivered at the sensation.His scent filled my nose and inhaled, it was so intoxicating, we kept inhaling ourselves.He brought his face up, tilting mine to meet his, our lips brushed each other, teasingly at first, then we kissed each other with so much fervor, I could feel both of
Chapter 13.Darren's POV.I was pissed that I got interrupted by my nephew, and it was for a matter I didn't want to talk about and wasn't ready yet.They all wanted to talk about Laura, and her status as a rogue, the rules I made years ago, came hit me in the gut, I remembered saying there would be no exemption of any kind when dealing with rogues, yet I had a rogue mate and word passed around that I've been keeping a rogue without doing anything.I planned to tell them she was my mate, yet I remembered my no exception rule.I walked inside the meeting hall, I could see the elders already waiting, they all came, about 50 of them, normally only one person came and aired out his view, yet this must have been so serious for them, they all decided to come.I kept my serious face that screamed, "don't fuck with me." "Good afternoon Alpha." They all chorused and I nodded while sitting down.All I wanted was for them to just say what they have in mind and I will get the chance to leave, th
Chapter 14Laura's POV.I was tired from discussing with Dean, but I decided after we talked for almost an hour that I'll stay with the pack. I wanted to learn more about the pack, so I'll be part of them. I hoped he wanted me here as much as I started loving it here.I waited for a while, I wondered why the meeting took so much time, Dean told me it wasn't a pack meeting, but a meeting with elders.I knew the elders of the pack had hands in lots of decisions in the pack, and I somehow knew that they called him because of me.I hope he wasn't disturbed or forced into making any decision.I tapped my legs nervously as I sat here waiting for Dean, he told me he had something to confirm and I hoped he came back, it was weird sitting here alone.I suddenly remembered the blonde girl and what Dean said about her and I felt a pang of jealousy I didn't know I would feel, I knew he was more experienced than me, he lived for a long time and was way older than me, I blamed the stupid mate pull
Chapter 15.Darren's POV.I was raging, raging that their true colors were showing, they pretended to care when I didn't have a mate, and now I have one, they suddenly wanted her dead, the audacity they had to even utter the word death when it came to her, I wouldn't mind committing thousand war crimes for her, even crimes that have never existed.The urge I had to make history once again, as the alpha to kill his elders in just a minute, I was tempted to kill them all, and they didn't fail to annoy me as they kept insisting on Laura's death.'I don't know what you're all arguing about or why you all think you can't just decide for me, I'm not killing her, and neither will I let you both do it." I said not caring about their outburst, though I wanted to care, my wolf was clawing at me, trying to get out and kill them all for daring to threaten our mate."Why will you even say that Alpha?" Elder Victor asked."You asked why I kept a rogue, and I've told you why, yet you're asking me wh
Chapter 16.Laura's POV.I couldn't believe he shouted at me, he had me so upset just for now reason, the way he sent me out of there, slamming the door in my face, I'm sure I looked totally ridiculous to the elders, they must be laughing at how stupid I looked with my mate.I sighed as I played with my fingers, trying to find something distracting to this anger building up in me, yet I couldn't find anything distracting, I still felt upset that my life was this way.At first it was a mate who didn't want me, who rejected and tortured me, now I had one who didn't reject me, but acted indifferent with me at times.I smiled at the absurdity that was my life, unable to help myself, I could feel the beta's eyes on me, yet I didn't care if I looked ridiculous.I'm sure he must think of me as a useless mate if I couldn't just do what he asked and calm my mate down, I needed air right now, if I didn't breathe, I might just get more upset.My wolf kept baring its teeth wanting to come out, I
Chapter 17.Darren's POV.She followed me upstairs, her hands shivering, the blackout we had one minute ago, as she stepped into the corridor, I stilled immediately.The scent I felt on her earlier became slightly familiar, yet I couldn't quite place who had this scent, but I knew it was from someone in my pack.Turning to face her, my wolf bared its teeth immediately. I realized the cut on her face, the faint mark on her neck, and her sweatpants were torn, it was a little bloodied.I couldn't believe that I didn't notice this earlier, I was too focused on my anger and the way she replied that I didn't even notice that she was hurt.She raised her head and paused fidgeting when she realized I was staring.If I thought I was upset when they talked about killing her, I wasn't ready for the new wave of anger that hit me, that someone dared to hurt her.My wolf bared it's teeth, howling and growling, prancing around, wanting to come out, I held it with all my strength, it was fucking hard
