My Unexpected Fate Saved Me (Book 2 of the Saved Series)

Chapter 17

I cannot believe it!

 He yelled at me, left me choking, and struggling for air in the school’s corridor just to chase after that little, ugly, disfigured slut!

 Urgh!

I was sure for a  moment before he grabbed me by my throat, that he was going to kiss me!

Goddess was I ever wrong.

‘What does she have that I don’t?’

Flawless combed bleach blonde hair and makeup every time. A slim body with full, perky boobs. That is what you call utter perfection, and that perfection is me, Lana Pierce, the best She-wolf in the Black-Crescent Pack!

No one deserves to be with Lucas more than me. No one!

I want to know how in the hell did that little b***h capture his attention? She must have done something or given him a spell. There’s no way he actually likes her!

‘Lucas was not made for you, and you know it! You’ve already had yours, so give up on him already. She’s his fated mate, Lana. You need to get that through your thick skull! He will never care for you the way you’d want him to. You know very well that Lucas wouldn’t reject his fated mate. Not for you or anyone. Why would he? He is way too kind to do that!” Sacha says with an exasperated sigh.

‘Shut up! You don’t know what you’re talking about, you stupid wolf. You never take my side! Always theirs!’ I huff back.

A part of me, a very small one, knows she is right. But I don’t want to hear it.

“He’s the only one I’ll ever be with, Sacha! Since we were in kindergarten, I’ve known him, and I’ve never seen him chase after some slut like he did today. Does she seriously think I’ll let her get away with it? No way in hell! I’ll be damned if I don’t do everything in my power to drive her ugly ass away from my mate! I. Choose. Him. He can only be with me!” I wailed, my chest rising and falling just as fast as my heart’s beating.

“You’re making a mistake. Lucas found his mate. You don’t stand a chance with him… Not that you ever did before. He’s always ignored any and every one of your advances. What makes you think now is any different?”

“He’s going to choose me in the end. I’ll make sure of it! You’ll see.” I declare firmly before shutting her out.

Having become an arrogant she-wolf, and still feeling hurt by Lucas’ rejection, and Sacha's relentless nagging, the next time I crossed paths with Sienna, I saw red!

I let her have the worst of my pain and anger. Scaring her out of her wits and breaking her heart. I could see it shattering with each of my allegations. . Even when I told her Lucas and I had “planned” to be together long ago, even if they were all lies, she believed me so cluelessly.

I know Lucas doesn't want me, he’s never wanted me. He made it clear. But I still hold on to that tiny fraction of hope I’m imagining in the back of my mind that he might, someday, change his mind.

Unfortunately, Mike saw my little anger outburst on Sienna.

Shit! I‘m in trouble now.

Turning on my heels to run away, I don’t even make it two steps before he’s blocking my way.

“Lana! What the hell did you just do to my future Luna?!” He yelled, making me take a step back.

“I-I was only talking to her. It’s not my fault she’s a freak and can’t take a simple comment.” I stutter, half rolling my eyes, trying to play it cool.

I hate being grilled like this. How much did he actually see? Did he even hear anything I said to her?

From the angered look on his face, I know he doesn’t believe me. 

‘I wouldn't believe you either. It sounded so fake.’ Sacha sneered.

‘Stay the f**k out of this if you aren't going to be helpful to me, wolf!’ I seeth

“I'm giving you one final warning.” He says, pointing his index finger way too close to my face.

“If I catch you threatening our young Luna ever again, you will have to bear severe consequences for your action. And I won’t be gentle about it either. ” He threatened coldly before walking off, letting out a low growl at the same time.

I pissed him off good. Why is he protecting that slut so much too?

My heart still pounding hard against my chest, I take a few steps backward until my back is against the wall. I slowly lower myself onto the floor. 

Why did he have to be near when I talked to that ugly trash?! He won’t tell Lucas about it, will he? Lucas won’t get mad at me again, right?

I think to myself, unconsciously lifting my hand to my neck, remembering Lucas's frightening aura and the threat he gave while he was choking me.

‘It definitely a possibility. Especially now that you went and “talked” with Sienna after he told you not to!’

‘You should really learn to shut your snout if you don’t have anything useful to say to me, you know!’

‘What I’m telling you is useful! You’re just too stubborn to listen to reason! You are going to get yourself, and me, killed if you don’t give up on that fantasy of yours!’

‘It is not a fantasy!’

“Yes, it is! And you will never fulfill it! Give it up already. Yes, we were taken advantage of by that asshole. He hurt us in no way a mate should have. And you and I know how devastating it can be. So why would you want someone else to experience the pain of losing their mate? You know how painful it is! Stop being this arrogant and get over yourself! Lucas will never be yours!’

“I hate you and I wish you’d never have been given to me as  a wolf!” I snarled, shocking both Sacha and me.

I hear her whimper in pain, before disappearing from my thoughts.

With a deep sigh, I get up from the floor and head to my next class. 

Can today be already done with?
