The Rejected queen

burning gaze

Sitting in the corner listening to the up beat song, people are dancing, jumping laughing, all of them are intoxicated, my eyes moved roaming around the dance floor, an alluring smell busy enticing my nose, my inner wolf is getting agitated and wants to come out in search of the sweet smell that’s teasing our nostril.

There she was, dancing, laughing grinding on another guy like there’s no tomorrow way too intoxicated to make sense of anything but chasing the exciting thrill she is feeling, Zayn my wolf growled in my head, Mate mate she’s our mate rip that man who has the guts to lay his hands on our mate, kill kill kill, that’s all I could hear in my head, and A heart wrenching pain in my heart, I’ve been searching for my mate for centuries and when I meet her, she’s in another man's arms.

“Slow down Zayn, I can’t sense a wolf in her, she is probably a human, this kind of thing is normal for them, or do you want to scare her away?” I reprimanded my Wolf in my head, though my hands were getting a lot itchy, I forced myself to calm down yet my mind, my body, my heart and soul wanted to rip that human apart for touching my queen.

“ More reason you should claim her, Ethan, you know humans they don’t care about how sacred intimacy is, look at him kissing her shoulders that should be us holding her and kissing her like that" Zayn scowled ready to pounce at him.

“calm down Zayne, she’s human we have to be careful around her, she’s our destiny, We’ve been waiting for her for centuries, a few days, months won’t hurt, what matters is that we have found her, she’s fragile”

Zayne and I kept on arguing about killing and not killing, claiming her forcefully and luring her into us slowly, our eyes never leaving her on the dance floor in one day we have experienced happiness and anguish, the woman we’ve been waiting and craving for is in front of our eyes but we cannot touch her.

“Common turn the radio on it’s Friday night ……” I'm singing on top of my lungs driving my yellow Maserati heading to the night club, too excited to meet new people, dance and drink to my heart content, I have no responsibility, no one expects anything from me, what an easy life I have.

I arrived in the night club, walking pass by the people who are queuing to get in “ Hi miss Zoe you look amazing tonight “ one of the bouncers complemented me, making a way for me to get in, I smiled and thanked him I'm a regular to a lot of night clubs, I’m the life of the party, call me anytime I cannot say no to alcohol and fun.

As I walk in I can feel it in my instincts, today something huge will happen, I don’t know if it’s terrible or good, but something is going to happen, I just closed my eyes, and emptied my mind, too much thinking is not healthy for me I shook off the feeling I'll cross that bridge when I get there, now it's time to party.

I spotted my bestie Ria sitting on a round table full of beverages, my eyes glisten with excitement, Ria's accusing gaze made me laugh “ Zoe you late, you ask me out set the time and still be late” she grumbled pouting her pink lips, I coughed amused “ sorry babes, my mother was here to see me I couldn’t get rid of her” I hugged her then ordered Scotch I need something strong, to wash down the bitter taste of the fight I had with my mother.

“Ria why can’t my mother let me be, she took away my teens in the name of grooming me to be the Luna, I was happy to do all that because of Chris, now Chris is not here, why do I have to live a dull life?” I complained signalling the bartender to pour me another drink, I gulped down four glasses of Scotch In a row, “calm down that’s enough if you go on in this pace you’ll get your self drunk before 22:00” Ria complained taking away my fifth glass.

I sighed feeling the buzz of the 4 glasses of alcohol starting to kick in, “okay mother” I mumbled getting of the high chair I was sitting on, “let’s go dance Ria” I pulled her arm dragging her to the dance floor with me, she hates it when I dance on the dance floor, I don’t blame her, I tend to lose myself in the rhythm of music.

The feeling I had when I arrived in the club, started to nag me again, my mind keep on telling me to leave yet my body wanted more excitement I pushed the nagging feeling aside and danced with my friend whipping my hair here and there, moving my body the best way I know, grinding, twisting my waist throwing my arms in the air letting lose, losing myself in the high of music and scotch sloshing in my empty stomach.

I Felt a burning gaze burning holes in my body, no matter what I did, I can’t seem to find the person who’s gaze is boring my body with holes , maybe I am paranoid maybe I am a little drunk I tried to shake off the feeling and proceeded dancing with Ria, she ditched me on the dance floor under the pretence of going to the loo.

A cute guy started to dance with me, our bodies moving together like we no strangers “ my name is Justin” he shouted for me to catch his name the music was too loud to have a conversation, I think that’s the reason I like clubs, no sob stories, no lies just loud music busting our eardrums and the dance floor, I smirked at him, the DJ started to play a hip hop song Justin and I danced together like old buddies, he is such a hilarious guy, with the music loud he still managed to share a few jokes with me.

His friends joined us on the dance floor, one of his friends was creepy, the way he looked at me, made me uncomfortable, I bid them goodbye,” what a bummer, I was hoping we’ll get more drinks and have fun, my girlfriend will be here soon too” Justin pleaded with me not to go yet,” she’d like you, pretty please” he pouted, I laughed, he is a nice guy well the first impression I got was nice, but Ria alone is enough to be friends with, I don’t want to complicate my life even more with humans.

“It was fun knowing you Justin and your friends, but I have to leave now my girlfriend over there” I said pointing at Ria’s pissed face “ is waiting for me” Justin just shrugged his shoulders and nodded his head in understanding.

On my way to Ria just a few steps a way from the dance floor, I felt shivers run down my spine, not from the creepy guy on the dance floor but from the direction I kept on feeling a scorching gaze from, I turned my whole body to check who is setting my entire body at blaze my eyes met with blue piercing eyes, I’m certain that they belong to a guy sitting in the shadows, yet his domineering aura and piercing eyes cannot be hidden, I felt excitement and thrill running in my blood veins, my mind kept on beeping danger danger, I smirked in provocation to the hidden eyes in the dark.

A ware wolf, He is a wolf and the question is what is he doing among the humans, and what’s with the scorching gaze.

My instincts told me to run, but the side of me that finds pleasure is danger was so thrilled, it wanted to provoke the lonely wolf more and more yet I decided to listen to my instincts and flee from the burning gaze.
