Unloved One

Relief

Nyssa pov.

Every day in the new house was like a rebirth for me, at school I avoided Theo and his friends as much as I could. Any and I spent most of the evening on my terrace talking and laughing. In a month I will turn 18 and shift, I will meet my inner wolf and find my mate, school will be over and I hope everything will get better then. I am very excited about that.

I want to travel the world, and when I shift then I will be able to, I want to live life to the fullest and without fear. I have so many dreams to make come true, Any has been involved in my adventures but now that David is her mate, I will have to do without her because no one leaves their mate behind and David can’t go with us, honestly I don’t even want him to go. As I dream about my future my mother is more and more worried every day, I see it on her face even though she is trying to hide it from me. She tells me it’s because I’m going to leave and she’s going to be left alone, but I think something else is bothering her just she doesn’t want to admit it to me.

Esma pov.

Nyssa will soon turn 18 and will be in great danger if I don’t find a way to hide the fact that she is the White Wolf. Igor will do anything to find her, he will kill his daughter to gain power, and I can't allow that, I have to protect her.

-Alex, did you talk to Soleil?” I asked.

- Yes, he will accept it. They are coming right away that evening, it is our only chance that no one will find out. - he replied.

I know Soleil is the only one who will protect her, but when she goes to her every trace will be erased as if she were gone, I will neither be able to see her nor hear her voice. And for me as a mother, it's like ripping out my heart and trampling it. The very thought of not knowing where she is and how she terrifies me, but if that’s the only way to be sure I accept it. Nyssa doesn’t know what’s in store and I don’t know how I’m going to explain it to her.

Theo pov.

I am in charge of pack training if there is a fight and war, although I hope that will not happen. I know that as an Alpha I have to be fearless, strong and brave, but the thought of war and struggle terrifies me, terrifies me the thought of victims, all these people are my family and friends, I don't want to lose anyone even though I know it will happen if not because war then because of old age.

- Come on, Theo, fight like a future leader. Exclaimed David

- You know I can kick your ass and blindfold. I replied, laughing

-Then prove it, you've been slow to me lately, that you haven't fallen in love, maybe? He replied mockingly

- I'm not the one who fell in love, as can be seen in your dexterity. I said, knocking him to the ground

-Ah man, I can't describe that feeling to you, I'm crazy about her. He replied, rising

-I'm glad for you, but as a future Beta you have to put that aside. -I said

-And you, as the future Alpha, may be better off alone, at least you won't have a headache. He said angrily

-Or to learn to choose words better. - he answered and knocked me to the floor

I looked at him in shock, he extended his hand to me to get up. I didn’t know what to tell him because I couldn’t read his emotions. David laughed and slapped me on the shoulder.

- See, man, I never got out of shape. Yet in the end I kicked your ass.

Training continued and was most of the pack, except Nyssa of course. I don't remember the last time she attended the training, which on the one hand made me angry because there won't always be someone with her to save her, and on the other hand I was glad she wasn't there because lately I can't get her out of my head and I probably couldn’t focus on the others. And then David would make fun of me.

I saw her mother in my father’s office, she’s been quite worried lately about what can be seen on her face and spends a lot of time with my parents. They didn't mention any problems, so it's probably nothing serious. In a couple of weeks the school is over and then my full preparations for the future Alpha start, my father has already given me a bunch of responsibilities and it's hard for me to schedule responsibilities, I have almost no free time, Jake tells me not to worry that everything will be fine. I hope this is true, because I try very hard to leave a good impression on my father.

Nyssa pov.

I spend time studying, school is soon over and I can’t wait, my torments will stop, I will be able to go and experience the world, live life to the fullest. Any is mostly with David and we rarely see each other, which I'm a little sorry for but I understand, it would probably be the same for me if I had my mate. Today is a pack training that I of course don’t go to. I was there a long time ago and then Theo mocked me and said horrible things, after that I never went to any training again. I train at home where no one sees me, I know how to defend myself and that's enough for me, I don't need it anymore. My mother worries me, she has been worried for days, she wants to spend more and more time with me. We spend our evenings watching movies, talking and laughing, but sometimes her gaze is so distant and thoughtful, maybe because of my father, I only know that she is a reject and I believe it hurt her a lot. She almost never mentions him and I don't know anything about him, she just said it's better that way because he's an evil man and she didn't run away to kill us. I had to promise her that I would never go looking for him, honestly I would never go looking for him because he doesn't exist for me, what kind of person leaves his mother and child, what kind of man you have to be to want to kill them. I know that escaping my mother was the only solution and I support her. I'm just sorry she didn't give anyone a chance to love after him. I would like to see her happy more than anything, I don't want her to spend her old age alone, she is too good a woman to grieve for some fool.

I wonder what my age will look like, will I have someone to remind me where he left his glasses.

My birthday is approaching, I will not have a big party, only my mother, Luca, Any and I, only those are enough for me, the people I love, I don't need anyone else, I will also be on shift that evening, and it's more excitement than my birthday . What a wolf I will be, will I be strong and beautiful. Oh how excited I am about that.
