My Second Chance

Chapter3

Zack drags me to his office and pushes me inside, slamming the door shut. He stood by the door looking at me in silence. Honestly being in the same space with him right now is suffocating.

“You told me to come to your office, well here I am”, he stays silent, looking at me. Is he not going to say anything? the silence is uncomfortable.

“If you are not going to say anything, I'll leave” he finally speaks, “no need to rush, i need the 6 months revenue report on the pack”, said Zack as he walks to his desk.

Is he still expecting me to work, after everything? Looking into his eyes, I try to read his expression, but I get nothing. He keeps a straight face, not giving any hints to what he is thinking.

“I'm afraid I can't give you that report”, I tell Zack

He raised his left eyebrow, obviously wanting an explanation to what I said.

The air in the room at that moment felt icy, and all I wanted to do was leave as soon as possible. I sighed, “what I mean to say is, I can't give a revenue report because as of this moment I renounce the pack”

“You what!?” Zack stands up from his desk.

I was tired of being taken for granted, tired of seeing my efforts stolen, and tired of staying in a place I call home, but the said home doesn't want me.

“ I said I renounce the pack”, I repeated my self, Zack stands up and walks up to me.

He's acting weird, never has he hesitated or questioned anything, is he reconsid__, “alright, I'll send beta John to bring the document to your room”. What was I even expecting, he flushes every expectations I have about him.

“No need, I will sign them here” I replied

ZACK’S POV

Did she just say she would sign them, and here? I have been acting rude and nonchalant with her because it always seem to work, she always comes back, but right now all I am doing is pushing her away further.

“Are you sure about this”, I ask her, making sure she doesn't do anything rash. She looks at me with a weird expression probably trying to figure out what I am thinking.

I can't let her know what I am thinking, especially what I am feeling, I am an alpha, I owe nobody an explanation.

Walking behind my desk, I open the drawer and rummage through it. I take a peek at her and notice she doesn't seem to be affected by this like I thought she would.

Found the document and walked up to her, I hesitated, trying to see in her eyes if she would fold but nothing.

She tilts her head and stretches out her hand, obviously she wants me to hand her the document.

She takes the document, signs, and hands it back to me. I tried to say something, but she was out the door before I could speak.

“Who would be that eager to leave his/her pack?” I ask myself.

AMANDA'S POV

I finally did it, I am no longer part of the pack. Now I just need to head to my room and pack my things, it's not like I have much anyway.

My thoughts were stopped by a sweet scent, a mixture of lavender and rain, I have never smelled something so sweet and comforting at the same time.

Aliyah my wolf howled in excitement, “Amanda, scent, MATE!”.

MATE?!! What did she mean by mate. “We had our mate Aliyah, and got rejected, remember??”, I try to tell her, but she still insisted,

“Mate, Mate, Mate!!”.

I smell it too, but it's impossible, and especially not this soon. I'm not ready for a mate, I panicked and ran in the opposite direction. The more I ran, the stronger his scent. “my mate is tailing me”.

Aliyah cried out, “Amanda you are running away from our mate, you can't run away from our mate”. I turned deaf to Aliyah words. I needed to get to my room and mask my scent, fast!
