The Rejecting Mate

Aftermath (Darcy)

Feeling Lucas’s arm around me as we fled the party almost broke me there and then, but I can feel him shaking on me, he as his wolf Onyx are calm in crisis’s so the fact he was shaking meant he must have fought to keep onyx in. We made it to my room mum and dad were making out on the table was an added blow to the events of tonight “sorry honey” mum giggled “how was your.... what’s wrong?” Mum went from embarrassed to worried in two seconds “nothing mum I’m fine” I said, the last thing I need was mum to give me a hug,I knew the strength I pulled from my anger I felt would melt away leave me pool of tears! she looked at Lucas I can tell she was mind linking with him, she nodded and let Lucas and I head to my room and I sat on the bed just staring in the mirror. Sinnex was whimpering inside.

‘I’m sorry, Sinnex’

I thought about the scene Lucas and I walked into how my mum and dad still desire and love each other so often. when they were 18 they were at a party much like the one I was at, they had no reservations they loved each other instantly! I was stupid to think that would happen for me, look at me!

Lucas finally spoke “Darcy? How are you holding up?” I continued to stare in the mirror how am I holding up? “ Well I’m holding up well do you want to know why?” “Why?” Lucas asking in a cautious tone, “simple I'm holding up fine because I’m a large double f*****g brick house who has an ugly f*****g exterior who’s own mate can’t stand!” I picked up my stupid phone and ditch it hard in to the mirror smashing it to pieces, then I couldn’t hold it no more! I let it all out I sunk to the floor and I just cried! the anger, the shock, the pain just flowed out of me like a raging river, Lucas just sat on the floor next to me. Lucas said nothing, and he just held my hand and let me cry it’s all out until I was so exhausted I just dropped asleep.

I woke up the next day hoping it was a dream. I was in my bed, Lucas must have brought me here. I rolled over and he was sleeping next to me.

Sinnex was quiet I’m not surprised, she needed healing time as much as I did. wolf powers don’t speed heal broken hearts. I placed my head in my hands, rub my face and decide that I will not become one of those people I see in movies laying down all day watching TV while shoving chips in my mouth! though that sounds tempting. No! I will take a shower and wash last night off.

I move to the shower and let the water run down my face it reminds me of my favourite thing to do, freeing my wolf and running in the rain. I wash my hair consider if I should get another tattoo, but then that would be a bad idea the asshole wasn’t worth an impulsive decision! if I did it would be art of a chicken with his face! I giggle and thought well I still have some humour left in me. I finish my shower and dry off, I find Lucas sitting up in my bed “hey” he says with his cheeky grin, oh god what is he up too “how are you feeling little wolf” he asked I just shrugged “so I was thinking your mates wolf doesn’t like me very much, Riven may have rejected you, but I suspect his wolf didn’t”

“pfft that’s stupid just about as stupid as my idea of getting a chicken tattooed with Rivens face” I stated like that sentence would make sense to anyone, Lucas just raised an eyebrow at me “what!” Lucas burst into laughter “only you would think of that so random” he continues to laugh at the absurdity

“any way I have a plan, what about we become more social, and we flaunt the change in our relationship status?” He said, I rolled my eye’s“Lucas no! sound like a cliché Rom-Com where we pretend we are in love and then we actually fall in love that will not happen not to mention if we meet your mate we don’t want to give them the wrong idea,”

“if I have a mate out there,” he grumbled

I’m standing in my towel my hair is wet, Lucas gave me a look and it was a face I have seen before, but I love Lucas so much, and I wish the best and most epic kind of love he deserves and he is stunning inside and out he deserves more than me.

‘Darcy we deserve it too,’ sinnix interrupted

First time I have heard her all day. I frowned anger flared in me again I turn to my closet “I have a better plan I’m an embarrassment of a mate right?” I respond to Lucas as he watches me his face lights up, my favourite cheeky wolf grin makes an appearance “true” he says “well I like the plan of being more social but let’s see how embarrassing I can be” I say meeting his stunning green eyes.
