"Tell her that I said no"
"Luna doesn't take no for an answer,you know that right?"
I couldn't believe it. They were literally talking about me as if I wasn't too here. Doesn't my opinion matter?
I slowly backed away from them and headed towards the door . That's when a stupid chair came out of nowhere and made me trip. I unluckly if that's even a word, landed on the exact place that I hurt earlier.
If that wasn't enough both the alpha and Jaxon turned their attention towards me.
The alpha growled.
Oh come on, I was the one who got injured not him.
"Forget what I said Jaxon ,you can take her to her right now"
Ok that stung. Was I really unbearable to live with. The alpha's eyes were cold and full of hate. I lowered my head and made an effort to stand despite the pain. Enough of being weak. Enough of being sad. None of them deserve me anyways.
None of them could ever deserve me so screw it.
To hell with formalities.
"That's it I'm done with this shit ok"
Both Jaxon and the alpha looked surprised.
Didn't expect me to have a backbone huh
"You want me gone that bad ,fine,I'll leave,it's not like I enjoyed your company too"
"Shut up human!"
"Don't you dare raise your voice at me dog"
Ok that went a little bit too far. He balled up his fists and bit his inner cheek hard
"I don't tolerate disrespect"
"Likewise"
"Jaxon get her out of here before I do something I might regret".
"You know ,letting me leave with him,an unmated wolf would be one of the many things you will regret right"
"Andrea" he yelled .
Ha! He actually knows my name.
"You know what, I feel sorry for your mate alpha and if you're not careful ,she might as well go for your beta because at least he gives a shit about stuff.
And with that ladies and gentlemen,I walked away.
I didn't know where I was headed to, I just followed the lights. That's when I felt a gust of wind against my arm.
"That took some serious guts"
"Go away Jaxon "
"Feisty Andrea is so much better than the current quiet one"
"If you're done talking you can leave"
"Wait, I have to take you to the Luna's house"
"I don't want to go" I said quite blantly
"Fine"
The walk to the place was quick and Jaxon managed to calm me down. He left as soon as we arrived.
With calm breaths I knocked the door and waited for a response. The door soon opened and I was yanked in. Literally.
"Dear"
"Emelda you nearly gave me a fright"
I said as I pulled away from her bone crushing hug.
"I heard about how my son treated you dear and I truly apologize. I didn't raise him that way"
"It's ok Emelda ,I've been through worse"
"Anyways, I have another plan and I'm sure that this time it won't fail"
"About that Emelda ,I don't want to be part of this anymore"
"What do you mean"
"I want to leave, go to the human realm and start a new life"
"I'm afraid dear I can't let you do that"
"Why not?"
"It's complicated and extremely unsafe for you to leave "
"Why?"
"You won't understand dear but I can't let you leave"
"I don't want to be with your son Emelda "
"Andrea"
"Please don't make me go back there"
"I won't ,I promise"
"Ok"
"Then I guess tomorrow we'll go to the orphanage instead"
Children . I don't know why but I always had a liking towards children. Seeing them happy and being all innocent gave me some inner peace.
Maybe it's the fact that I didn't have an easy child hood or something of the sort
"Why?"
"Because it's where you'll be helping out . You see dear ,in our pack, everyone has a responsibility regardless of age and apparently since you can't be with my son and get the title of Luna, it's the only place suitable for you,but if you aren't comfortable,I'm sure we can get an alternative."
"No, it's ok, I love children"
" Well it's settled, tomorrow at eight we should be there "
I slept that night with a smile on my face. At least something good was happening to me. I just hope I don't screw it up
Authors note
Hey guys. I just want to thank you all for reading this book till this far. Feel free to comment ,vote and point out errors incase there are anything.
For those who have read my previous books, don't worry,this book is one of the few that has a very simple plot, it's also going to be 'short ' I think.
I love y'all
As I stood right outside the door of the orphanage,doubt filled my mind. Will they like me? What if it hey despise me because I am human and different from them. I tugged my hair a bit harder than expected . The Luna noticed my struggle and shot me a warm smile."They'll love you dear"she spoke and gave me a gentle squeeze.Her goes nothing. I opened the door and braced myself for crowded and noisy halls but instead everything looked orderly and try he halls were deserted. Where were the kids? I was ushered to a door. Apparently the kids were in one room waiting for me. The Luna had already left leaving me alone.I pushed the door open and what I saw made me speechless. It was the kids but something was wrong....with all of them.The hey looked like zombies. Their eyes hard dark circles and bags and a sickening darkness that made shivers go down my spine.I didn't even want to know what caused their current state,all I knew was that I needed to get them out. From the youngest who l
"Now kids ,as you know , I am Andrea the new manager of this place and of course you as well. I have no idea of what that Grinch , Greta ,did but all I want you to know is that things will be a bit different" That earned a few smiles."Different" one of the kids spoke but then froze.I guessed it might have been an offense when Greta was here. The kid looked like he was going to cry."What's your name little one""Tom" he replied,fear lacing his voice"You know what Tom, come over here" I smiled.He seemed confused and when I took him into my arms and nuzzled my head onto his neck, he gasped but soon melted and finally laid his head on my chest.What happened next was abit humourous. He fell asleep. The children held astonished looks."As I said kids, everything is going to be a bit different. I am going to teach you a lot of things but the most important thing is that I'm going to allow you to be kids again"Whispers broke through the room . I let it happen while little Tom let out s
It's been a month now and so far everything in the orphanage was going quite well .The Luna, Emelda ,would drop by at times in order to check on the progress. The kids had been coping up well ,more staff had been hired and more buildings had been set up.In terms of academics ,the children had really improved according to their various report cards and a kindergarten was opened up recently within the grounds for the smaller kids.The family thing still existed and a lot of the older kids really took care of their selected children . The few that could not were training with the warriors.The bell rang thus meaning that recess was over . I clutched onto my books that I would use and walked into the class.I decided to stick with the younger children because they always made my day."Good morning everyone?" I smiled"Good morning Miss Andrea" they said in a sing-song mannerThey were too cute." So we're going to go through what we did yesterday ok ""Ok ""Let's begin . What is one
Angry and enraged was all I could feel after I saw her. The moon goddess is truly cruel and pure evil .I didn't want a mate, especially not a human one.The thought of her just made me want to punch a wall .Andrea. Her name is Andrea . My wolf found it amazing that we had another chance at love but I on the other hand had a different opinion.She was slow, clumsy and fragile. She was too fragile and she talked a lot.Everyday she would somehow find a new way to just make me angry.She makes me angry and I .... I like it.I thought of sending her way. I thought sending her away would make these feelings go away but it's just made them grow stronger .I passed by her former room everyday and just took in her scent that was already fading.I see her in every corner of the house. I see her in the kitchen doing something stupid as usual.But I also see her making coffee every morning in the kitchen. I see her brushing her unruly hair and cursing at it . I see her talking to herself abo
First of all I want to thank you all for the reads. Honestly,I didn't think that anyone would be interested in this book,but y'all proved me wrong again. I love you all so much😭I was lying on something very cold. I pried my eyes opened and noticed that the armchair was empty . Great, just great, I fell off the chair again. I picked myself up and quickly freshened up .After I was done, I quickly fixed the office before rushing to send of the teens to school.By nine o'clock,I was done and quickly went to my first class."Good morning my little munchkins""Morning"After ensuring that all of them had had a goodnight rest and we're feeling okay,I proceeded with the lesson"Soo today we are going to talk about something very interesting"Their eyes sparked up and I instantly knew that I had their attention."What are we going to talk about, Andrea?"one of the kids asked looking a bit puzzled"Mates "I smiled.Suddenly,the kids facial expressions changed. They looked horrified and though
"That's enough kids"I spoke trying to ease the tension that was building."Prove it Miss Andrea""Fine"I quickly pecked the Alpha's cheek and crossed my arms.I may or may not have to wash my mouth after this. It may sound like I'm overreacting and all but I for one feel a bit disgusted,I mean, what if he rolled on a pile of shit or piss when he was in his wolf formOr what if some other she wolf peed on him and marked him as hers to ward off other females.YuckOr or what if some other female kisses him at the exact spot. No no no. Positive thoughts Andrea. Positive thoughts.Don't overthink things."Ewwwwwww""Girls have cooties and if he were to be my mate ,I wouldn't want him to get it"I said feeling rather proud of myself for saving the situation. The kids looked at me for what seemed like ages before shrugging their shoulders.Good,they bought that lie. The lesson went on well and finally the bell rang. I don't know why but I felt so relieved. Maybe it's because the alpha's e
One month later Xerxes POV The door slammed open and I wasn't surprised when Jaxon walked in all care free.I couldn't care less though. All I could think of at the moment was Andrea. After seeing her in the orphanage a month ago,she was all that invaded my mind. I'd sneak into her office every night and just hold her. This was all possible thanks to her ability of passing out like a log. I mean,I could shift and roar as loud as I could but she would still be asleep. How do I know this? Well that's easy because I literally tried that a night ago I am one of the most feared Alphas in the region but she's made me lower my pride in order to see her. Fuck I sound like a teenage pup. "Earth to Xerxes" "It's Alpha Xerxes to you" ,"I am the happiest man alive" Jaxon said while dropping onto the leather couch. "Let me guess,your Grinch of an aunt died" "Always pessimistic" "I do try" "Well no,but something good finally happened to me" "What?" "She finally said yes" "Who?" "It's
