The Alpha's new Obsession

CHAPTER 4

MARK

GARTH

All my childhood, I saw how my father's mistress caused my mother's depression, leading to her early death. My mother is my father's mate, but it doesn't make my father faithful to her. He cheated and, sadly, chose his lowly werewolf mistress over my mother, a Lycan princess.-

That made me distance myself from papa. We became strangers to one another. Since that moment, I promised myself that once I met my mate I would be loyal to her. Only her.

And then I met Ashina, a daughter of an alpha from another werewolf’s pack. The frost fang Growlers. She was a nice she-wolf, but I know how she was attached to Charles. I witnessed how she and her childhood sweetheart Charles, loved to be together. I had no intention to meddle in their love story, but Moon Goddess did as she chose Ashina to be my mate. I vowed it would only be her when I learned she was the one.

When I smelled that unfamiliar scent, my wolf wildly told me to mark Ashina, but I did not. No rejection jsd been done for two years, but I knew Ashina would reject me under the blood moon on the night of the ceremony.

And that wouldn be tonight.

For two years, I waited at a distance for her to realize it was me she would need to accept as a mate. I almost believe that Charles is a good wolf for her, that maybe… that maybe I could sacrifice our supposed bond for her happiness, but…

But, after the investigation of Trion, we discovered that Charles is not what I thought him to be. He is a bad guy, and when I told Ashina about it, she didn't believe me and even told me that I was saying ill words out of spite because of jealousy. She proudly said that she would reject me for Charles. She accused me of tarnishing Charles’ good reputation because even though I am alpha, she will choose an omega.

I wanted to fight for Ashina, but what is there to fight for? She plans to reject me at the ceremony.

Funny, that even last night, I was pestered and bullied by some werewolves which made me decide I should stop pursuing Ashina. I want her to be my mate, my Luna….. but wanting is questioned when she was the one who could start my suffering.

There was even no time when she almost committed suicide, according to Jenella, her sister. Jenella is unlike Ashina, who was obviously raised as spoiled as she is. If marrying me would cause her to choose death, I better give her up.

And how amusing now…when my pack and I were done with our conference and decided to return to our place after I rejected Ashina tonight, she appeared. She was frantic as she was now here before me, telling me I should mark her, almost like panicking.

“Mark me….” She sniffled. “Don't reject me…”

Her tears made me think about what was happening. When I learned she was my destined mate, I tried to be closer to her, but she always did her ways to make me feel unwanted.

“I–I'm sorry for all those times I'd been a bad mate to you. Please….I am here to receive your markings. I am yours, Garth! I need you to marry me.”

“I don't know what happened to you, Ashina.” I turned my back to her, and my two hands were now on the railings. Grasping it while thinking of some good words to tell her it's over.

I am tempted to do what she was suggesting, but… I can't forget what I heard from Jenella yesterday. I learned that Ashina plans to elope with Charles before the ceremony, and now she is here, I can't trust her. I can't trust someone who has already contributed insults to me. Charles is nothing compared to someone like me, but still, she chooses him.

Charles is a lousy rival. He is weak, but I can't fight him. I'm not too fond of Ashina to hate me more for hurting ‘her’ Charles. That is also why I let the bullying happen from those stupid omegas. I can't be childish and make it affect me. That's uncivilised. And I am more than that. I know my worth!

“I wanna show you my sincerity by coming here but you are making me feel unwanted. Garth, for two years…” she paused. “For two years you always wanted me to accept you as my mate. You waited for a long time. And now I am accepting you…why do you want to reject me?”

“Because making you my mate doesn't mean making you loyal to me. You are always, proudly saying to me how you love Charles. Don't you remember it, Ash?”

“Stop calling me, Ash. I hate that nickname!” She yelled those words.

I smirked at how feisty she was. From the moment she came here, she was shouting and yelling. Commanding me what she wants. She probably had a new plan to humiliate me, but I won't let that happen.

“You told me before that I am your only Luna.” She sniffled. “If you reject me at the ceremony later, what will happen to you? To us? You are making everything painful between us.”

I sneered at that. “Do you hear yourself, Ashina?! I asked her. “You kept on saying to everyone that you would reject me. And now I am planning to reject you as well, you are here telling me the pain that our nature may face because of the rejection you were the one who planned first. Are you sick?”

She sobbed again. A new set of tears fell on her soft cheeks. I wanted to touch, pull and cuddle her until she stopped crying, but that was…. foolishness.

“I don't know how to make you believe me, but I need you to mark me. Garth. You are all I need.”

Am I all she needs? Must I believe her? f*****g hell but looking at her crying yet still beautiful made my wolf turn wilder, and I admit that as she was standing Infront of me made me wanna toon her clothes off and forget the ceremony. I wanna indulge my inner wolf in enjoying the delightful scent I am smelling from her since then.

“Take me! Do what all you want to my body, Garth! Make me yours as you mark me now! Do it!”
