AXEL I gritted my teeth in anger at what Shayna said. Then I took a deep breath trying to hold down the burning rage in me. “I’m going to assume that you don’t know what you are saying,” I managed to say calmly, despite how I was feeling. Diana didn’t need to find out this way. I needed to tell her the truth but not in front of this scheming b***h. I got up from my seat and wanted to leave but decided against it and instead turned to Shayna. The normal me would have left them both without saying a word to them but I couldn't because of Diana. I respected her. “You have a scar on your right butt and a burn close to your d**k area. Am I lying?” Shayna asked even though I could see her shuddering lightly. This b***h sure hard some nerves. “I’m disappointed, Axel,” Diana said to me, her voice breaking a bit as tears began to run down her eyes. “I can explain. This b***h is lying!!!” I chased after Diana and tried to make her understand. I had never chased anyone like I did. I didn't even know why I was doing it now. She was the first because she was worth it. “You know what? I think our parents are right. We should reject each other,” Diana lashed out after she hailed a taxi. “I have proof that I didn't get her pregnant,” I answered not wanting to sound like I was begging her. “Okay, show me,” She folded her arms on her chest and looked at me with her tear-stricken face. “I can't show you here. I can only..” I wanted to continue but she scoffed and got into the taxi which zoomed away afterwards. She was the first to have ever walked out on me while I was talking and I wasn’t angry at her at all unlike how I would have been enraged if it was anyone else. After she left, Shayna walked to me with a smirk on her face. “If I can't have you, no one will,” She said and wanted to walk away but I gripped her hand tightly. “You will pay for this,” I said through gritted teeth and let go of her hand. “You should know by now that your cold and menacing aura doesn't affect me, Axel. Expect me at home tomorrow with more,” She said and scurried away while I watched her with hardened Jaws and clenched fists. Shayna was a model who was obsessed with me. She kept asking me out on dates but I knew her type so I never paid attention to her. Thinking about how I could get Diana to come to my house and show her the proof, I got into my car and drove home. ******* Reaching home, I tiredly walked to my room and crashed on my bed. I began thinking about what happened at the restaurant again. I should have insisted and clarified things there and then but that would have meant me revealing my secret which would affect me when I would want to assume the Alpha position. I blamed my parents for the way my life had turned out. Why I didn't have friends and why I was going through all these. They were the ones who turned me into the cold-hearted person I was. All I had wanted was their love, care, and attention but they were too obsessed with each other to pay any attention to me. That was why I ended up being hostile to everyone because I assumed they had a happy life and I didn't. I picked up my phone and dialed Diana’s phone number and luckily she picked up the call. She was the nerdy and innocent type and I loved girls like her. Furthermore, I had been watching her for a while after finding out she had a thing for me. “What do you want,” Diana snapped at me over the phone, making me sigh and massage my temples. “I have never dated any girl and I won't lie, it's not because I was waiting for my true mate. You know what? Come to my house tomorrow and you will find yourself after I show you something,” I said calmly. “I demand an answer this minute Axel or else I’m doing what our parents say,” She asked again. “If you have any atom love left for me. Trust me and come tomorrow let's settle this once and for all. Please,” I pleaded. I couldn't remember when I last pleaded with anyone. Could this be the moon goddess's way of taming me? “I’ll come over in the morning,” She said curtly and the call ended. I felt relieved that I was able to convince her to come over. It had to be this way because this wasn't something to talk about over the phone. I was willing to trust her with my secret because she was after all my mate. At first, I was trying to suppress the way I felt for her simply because I wasn’t used to showing my emotions. But after what happened with Shayna I knew I couldn't. “So you will go against our will?” My parents yelled after barging into my room. As if I didn't have enough on my plate to deal with already and now, them? I scoffed. “Wait, aren't you both supposed to be somewhere acting all lovey-dovey?” I asked in annoyance. “Watch the way you speak to your father and I,” My mom snapped. “Then leave my room!” I barked. “Shayna is pregnant for you and as our family tradition demands you have to take responsibility whether or not you’re her mate,” My father pointed out. All these years they didn’t show me any care nor were they concerned about my well-being. I was like a stranger living with them. And now they wanted to begin acting like they cared just because my mate happened to be from the family they never got along with? “Diana is my mate and she is the one I will get married to. You both can get married to Shayna and have a threesome if you like,” I thundered. “I will never allow that. Not while I am alive will anyone welcome that girl into this family,” My father yelled. “Then get ready, because you will have to die. She will be my wife and there is nothing any of you can do about it,” I said with an air of finality before I left them in my room. Since they didn't want to leave, I would. ************ It was morning already after the episode I had with my parents last night and here I was going to welcome Diana because this was her first time visiting my house. I loved her because so far she was tolerating my character and I was willing to change a little bit because of her. “Welcome,” I said when I got to her. “Your proof better be worth me coming here,” She said with a frown and I nodded in understanding. I loved her scent and the way she looked so much that it made me want to sweep her off her feet, take her to my room already, and pleasure but sadly I couldn't. I had something important I had to show her first that was going to determine if she would want to be with me or not, and I hoped it wasn't going to be the latter. We proceeded into the house and were about to go upstairs to my room when we heard a commotion outside. “Ignore that. Let’s go,” I said, and wanted to hold her hand but she shook her head in disapproval. “Let’s check what's going on,” She said and walked to where the sounds were coming from and I had no choice but to follow her. Reaching there we saw a guy with a bloodied face being forced to his knees in front of my Dad. I rolled my eyes and scoffed when I saw my Dad acting all strong when in the true sense, he was a weak man always pining for my mom’s attention. “We were able to catch this one. He was among the rogues who attacked our perimeters and tried to breach it,” My Dad’s Gamma, Aaron said. Aaron was 28, the same age as me and we were a bit close because I felt he was the only one who truly understood me. “We won't rest until all packs know what truly happened that night. How you…” But the rogue's mouth was bound by Mr. Beckley, my father's Beta before the rogue could complete his statement. I found this odd because if my Dad didn't have anything to hide why didn't he allow the rogue to complete what he was saying? And also, why would a rogue say what this one said? Did something really happen on the night he was stopped from talking about? “You know what to do next,” My father said to Mr Beckley who nodded in understanding and ordered for the rogue to be taken away but Diana then reacted, surprising us all.
