Him & I

Chapter 3

Im sorry if ive scared you by doing this” it was almost a faint whisper.but i heard it loud and clear. I was staring into his eyes. And i could see them flicker yellow sparks.

I had seen this many ties with other pack member at blue lake when they were with their mate so it only confirms to me that he really is my mate.

“Are you my mate?” i said staring at the ground in shock that i asked that.

“Are you mine?” i looked up at him and he was smiling. But i had to tell him the truth. I was only a human. And n one wants a human as a mate.

“If i am, then it probably wont be for long as i am human” my voice cracked on that last part because i knew that it would change everything.

I didnt even have the guts to look at him. His silence was enough to tell me what his decision was.

“I am sorry to do this, but i will soon be alpha to my pack and my pack needs a strong luna” he said in a firm tone, just like an alpha, just like my dad.

“I, Lucas Jace Valentino of the red moon pack, reject you, Anastasia Crest, as my mate”

I felt a pang in chest and then i heard a scream amongst my own thoughts, i held my chest while still looking at the ground.

“I, Anastasia Crest, accept your rejection” i was tearing up and panting hard. This was hurting it really was. And my first day of school what the hell was happening

“Im sorry but this had to happen, you are very beautiful and any other human would love to have you” he said a walked out closing the door behind him. Atleast he was nice about it i suppose.

I cried a bit longer and waited for the halls to die down before i put my head out and saw it was clear. Then i ran. I remembered my way from memory and ran all the way back to memaws.

My mom wasnt home but i had my key. I ran into my room and cried on my bed. I was heart broken over a boy i didnt know. Is this what mom felt like?

My mom came home and saw me in a state. She knew what happened. Call it intuition.

“You know you dont have to go back till your ready okay? She held me in her arms with her head on top of mine.

“Thanks mom” we didnt need to speak, we knew what each other needed. It was a great bond me and my mom had,

“Can i just stay home for a while? Till i feel better? Please?” i knew i was pushing it on my first day but im sure she would understand.

“Okay dear as much time as you need” my mom knew this feeling so she was great at comforting me.

“Ill cook us dinner okay, wash up that may make you feel a bit better” she kissed my forehead and walk out of my room closing the giant door behind her.

I took in a deep sigh and walked into my bathroom, no one even knew i left the school. I didnt even see my new friend before i took off either. I ran my a bath, so i could just soak away any bad thoughts. I didnt even know why i was sad. I didnt even know the guy.

As i laid in the bath staring at the roof, i heard something, like maybe my conscience. Telling me to not to dwell, rise above it. We all have that little voice in our heads so thats what i assumed it was. But i still listened to it

I washed myself clean and got dressed. I stared at myself in the mirror

“Youll be better” i said firmly to myself and nodded.

Im going to make a come back, i will not let this perceive who i am.

As i was walking out of my room heading down stairs i heard my mom call out

“Dear, you have a visitor” she sounded too excited and i wondered who it was, i rushed to the top of the stairs and it was Chelsea. My eyes lit up. How did she know where i lived?

“Chelsea, what are you doing here?” i asked her as i walked down the stairs.

“Well, madam crest use to live here years ago so i assumed you lived here too, well your last name is crest after all” she stated matter of factly.

She walked in looking around the house.

“Nice place you got here, i heard so manythings about this place, your grandma was a great woman” she smiled and said to me. And she was right, even though i came here once before memaw was always great. She would always come to kansas to visit us.

“Thanks, sorry i took off earlier i had to leave the place, i didt even get a chance to see you before i came home” i said to her walking into the kitchen

“You want anything to drink?” i grabbed me a bottle of water from the fridge.

“No thanks Ana, were you okay? It was so strange that you just took off” concern was plastered all over her.

“I just had something important come up thats all” i looked away form her not wanting to start crying again.

“Why dont you show her room dear” my mom was urging us to get outta the kitchen and i chuckled at her.

“Oh no its fine, she can sow me another time i better gete going, my mom will be wondering where i am, Ana see you school tomorrow?” she asked with her eyebrow raised in the hopes that i say yes, but i dont even wanna go back there at this moment to be very honest.

“Maybe. But i will definitely see you around chels, thanks so much for stopping by” i walked her to the door

“No worries, see you aground Ana” she smiled and i waved her off. That was nice of her to come around and check on me. Glad she didnt take p the offer to see my room, it was too giant to show to any one at this stage.

“Im just gonna take a walk out the back mom” i havent yet explored the property like i use to.

“Okay Ana, ill call you when dinner is ready” my mom carried on mixing something i a pot

“Yeah sure mom” i said back to her and walked out front door.

I walked around the side of the house, my mom did her best to clear most of the walkways around the house. It didnt bother me much, i was use to things like this, living in a pack you get use to these things.

Tonight was going to be the first full moon since i turned 18. I use to watch all the wolves sit under the moon or even go out for a run. I wished i could do that, it looked so free.

I got to the back of house and saw the big forrest, it was just how i remembered but maybe a little bit bigger. Trees swaying in the light breeze. The afternoon sun shining through the forrest it was indeed a sight. I breathed in a deep breath of fresh air. And then i heard that voice again ive been hearing.

Ana?

I looked around frantically but there was no one there.

“Whose there? Come out! I heard you call my name” i spoke out loudly and firm

I am you. You are me. My name is Isis. I am your wolf

My eyes widened, that cant be true i am human

Its true, you are not human. It took m a little while to gain access to your thoughts but i managed.

She said almost sarcastically like she was reading my thought. I stood in shock not saying anything. That is why it hurt like hell when i was rejected earlier on.

Our mate rejected us?

I just nodded my head

What a fool, thats fine we will train. Get better, get stronger

I nodded again

Talk to me Ana its okay

Im so sorry its quite the surprise im so happy i thought i was human

Yes i just heard this is your thoughts

You can hear my thoughts?

Yes i can hear your thoughts, feel your feelings. Thats why it pained you when you were rejected that was the mate pull, and it hurt me so much, but we will get better.

She must of been the voice i heard in the bath tub, i cant wait till i tell mom about this she is gonna be stoked for me.

It was nice to meet you, i am just at the back off your thoughts if you ever need me

Thank you Isis

She smiled and walked back to the back of my mind.

I am werewolf. I was jumping up and down like a dam fool i could not believe this. This say was a sad one.but not anymore. The rest of my evening went by fast and i couldnt wait to tell mom. We were sitting at the table eating our dinner, my mom had made us lasagna and salad.

“Mom i have something to tell you” my voice came out like a stutter was i scred to tell my mom? Maybe i didnt want her feeling different or anything.

“What is it dear?” she was eating her dinner her eyes fixed on her plate.

“Im, im werewolf mom” she stopped eating to look at me

“Of course you are dear, your father does the run one of the biggest packs known to your kind” she looked at me like i was crazy and i did sound crazy

“I mean i have a werewolf mom, she came upon me today while i was out back in the forrest” my moms eyes filled with tears and next thing i know she was squeezing me.

“Your father threw us out and even resented you because he thought you were nothing but human, and yet here you are little wolf, the moon goddesses magic is already working her charm” my moms theory was actually starting to seem pretty legit

“Things are looking up for us my dear” my moms eyes were filled with hope once more and i just smiled seeing her smile a genuine one.
