CHAPTER 3

“Huh…?” My heart jumped to my throat and goosebumps appeared on my skin. ‘Or do I stand a chance?’ 'Is he going to…?’ thoughts after thoughts flashed across my mind as I pulled up my trembling body and walked towards him on the stage. “Remember I found my mate recently. Yes, recently. But it turned out to be Gina” murmuring arose from every corner of the hall. It was obvious that everybody was annoyed. I suddenly felt hopeful… maybe he… “But…” Jayden paused and looked at me with disgust. I was scared pale and my body shook with fear and uncertainty. “I hate weak people! And if there's anything that this park needs, it is a strong and powerful Luna, and Gina Cole is no where close to that” He spat at my direction. “Talk more of being a werewolf without a wolf. Disgusting!” My face grew pale at his words. My head began to buzz and I felt like I could not understand anything again. My scalp tinged and tingled with pain as I heard whispers of approval from the werewolves below the platform I stood on. “I originally won't care about her miserable life. But I don't know why…” Jayden paused and looked at me with undisguised hatred. His voice rose and I could feel he was becoming angrier. “I don't know why the moon goddess made you my mate” I swallowed nervously and bowed my head. I felt like the ground underneath my feet should open and swallow me. “Werewolves shift early. But this late bloomer, Gina, is a disgrace to all werewolves. Maybe she's even human! So embarrassing!” Jayden's anger seemed to reach its c****x and the powerful aura of an alpha burst out of his body. “But…” everywhere became silent as Jayden paused while staring at me with the same look - hatred! “I decided that I would reject her than have a wolfless monster as my mate and Luna!” All of my body trembled like a sieve; I was close to breaking down. “I, Jayden Dallas, the alpha of Blue Moon park, hereby reject Dina Cole as my destined mate” I felt a chord strike within me. Something inside me was apart, or rather was tearing me apart. All the members of the park spat at my direction and stared at me with disgust. “Reject him and be done with it!” An omega slave at the corner of the hall shouted at me and everyone in the hall murmured in agreement. The whole world seemed to be against me. “Hmm” All the pent-up anger and frustration in me erupted that instant. Something in me changed and anger flowed through my body to my head. I was angry, really angry. I felt cheated, exploited, disappointed, deceived and disgraced by my own destined mate. ‘This should really end!’ “I, Gina Cole, hereby reject alpha Jayden Dallas as my destined mate” I mustered the courage and rejected Jayden. An excruciating pain shot to my brain and spread all over my body. The pain of rejection almost made me go crazy. I felt like my sanity was slowly leaving me. “Hahaha…” the laughter and shouts all around me sounded like screams from hell to me. I felt like I was in a cage. I wanted to be free. I needed to. I must be free. I dragged my body and began to run without looking back. “I am ending this!” tears poured down my face as I ran out of the alpha's mansion that stood in the centre of the park and headed towards the woods. The shame and cruel rejection I suffered in the hands of my mate and the hatred of the pack members completely broke my will to live. I rushed into the forest without stopping, with weeds and thorns tearing at my smooth skin. Shrubs and sharp branches scratched my face every now and then but I kept on running. I didn't stop and scrambled deeper into the woods. Blood oozed out of a couple of fresh wounds on my hands and legs. But I refused to stop; because the pain of the wounds is far behind compared to the pain in my heart. “Hey there. Stop!” I heard a stern voice behind but refused to stop. They were the patrol team on duty. They began to chase after while I kept on running away, deeper into the woods. “Freedom!” My red eyes glistened with the determination to die as I managed to dodge the patrol guards. I saw a cliff in front and sped towards it. I could feel movements behind me again. I increased my speed and ran with all my strength. “Huh…” I paused inexplicably as I got to the edge of the cliff. I looked down the cliff and saw a wide stream flowing endlessly. My heart began to beat and thump wildly in my chest. The movements behind me also stopped. I looked over the cliff and gradually became scared. I wanted to jump over and die. I wanted to leave this damn world! But right now, I don't know if I still… Thoughts of my father drifted into my head as I stood on the edge of the cliff. “I love you Dad, but I don't want to trouble you again.” Tears slid down my face as I made the final decision. I love my father than anything. But I am also doing this for him. I've troubled him enough! I took a step closer to the edge of the cliff. I was just about to jump when my foot slipped. “Ahh…” I screamed as I fell down the cliff. Fear and panic rose inside me. I closed my eyes and prepared to die. Crack! c***k! I opened my teary eyes in midair and saw my body shifting. I was finally able to shift into a wolf. But what a pity! Because I was off the cliff and was definitely going to die. My body fell into the stream and I began to struggle to breathe. I was dying. I closed my eyes and surrendered to the cold hands of death. … The cool breeze brushed against my skin and I felt like opening my eyes. “What?... Ahhh!” My eyes flung open and I screamed out. I took a couple of heavy breathes and scanned my surroundings. “Am I dead?” my body trembled at the thought.
