Semua Bab Arya’s Second Chance Mate: Bab 101 - Bab 106

Chase's POVI followed her to kitchen and pretended to get something from the fridge.I noticed she didn't want to look at me. That was weird. I moved closer to her and she in turn moved back. Hmm that was strange. Where did this come from? I needed to know why." I have never seen you this angry at me. What is wrong?" I asked.“Why are you avoiding me?” I said taking a step closer. She didn't say a word, though it looked like she wanted to. The silence stretched and I waited for her to speak but she didn't. Then she turned around, backing me. Finally I had enough.My voice cut through the silence like a blade.Arya didn’t flinch. She didn’t turn either. She kept her back to me, hands on the countertop, pretending to be busy with nothing.I took a step closer.“I asked you a question.”“I heard you,” she replied, tone flat, without sparing me a glance.“And?”“I answered.”“You didn’t.”Another step. Now I was behind her, close enough to feel the tension radiating from her shoulders.

Arya’s POVMy eyes opened. It was dark, but I could see. Without hesitation, I needed no one to tell me I was not in my room, nor was I in Chamberlin’s.

I do not trust him, yes. I can’t be his Luna even though I am his mate. It’s not like I didn’t deserve him, but I don’t think I fit in here. All I have done so far is cause trouble for Chase and his pack. I see the way they look at me. Even though I don’t want to care, half of the time, I find myself doing so.I should leave. Better I go back home. To where I belong. To my people. I can love him from

Arya's POVI cried. I screamed. I begged. I sang. I slept. This was my routine. Wash. Rinse. Repeat. There was no food or water. I was getting weaker and weaker, but I held on. Today I'm quiet. So quiet, like I can hear everything. The squishy clacks of the rat feet running across the wall. The dripping of water from a leaking pipe. They dull hum of something. I don't know if it's a lawn mower or a hair dryer. The thumping of my heart in my ears.I swallowed.I blinked and looked around. Right in my eyes, my brain began to play out everything that had happened. From the moment Jake was coming back till now. He seemed sincere. I mean…. Then I began to see the loopholes. I began to question a lot of things. Why didn't I ever ask about my sister? Why did they fall out, and why was he now coming for me?
