My Second Chance

Chapter 32: #32 The Cat Is Out Of The Bag

Clover's P.O.V

I walked on and on. Not resting till the pack house came to sight. I felt guilty for leaving Sapphire, but if that's what makes her happy, then so be it. Twigs snapped and leaves crunched under my feet as I neared the pack house. What would they say? I turned my back and betrayed them, would they take me back?

I turned away. I could lie to Sapphire that they didn't want to take me back. But where would I go? I couldn't return before 4 days. I sighed and sat down against the tree. I smelled a scent but was too tired to acknowledge it. The wind might have brought it here.

My eyes swept over the large mansion that had over 500 people leaving together. It was unusually quiet. They were all blissfully unaware about Sapphire's problem as she was forced to face alone. Guilt tugged at my heart. I left her to fend for herself. What if Graysen found her? What if those witches Sapphire told me about was really helping him? She would never get away. Sweat beaded on my forehead in terror at the images that flashed through my mind. I stood up abruptly. I had to be there for her, whether she like it or not.

"Glad to see you made your mind about whatever that was bothering you." I heard a familiar voice and my head snapped to the owner.

I couldn't describe how relieved I was to hear my childhood's friend's voice. Then again, I remembered the decision I made just a second ago. Great, now how do I get away?

"Why is the pack house so quiet?" I decided to ask a helpful question instead. "Something to do with you and Sapphire's disappearance." Cole shrugged. "Then why are you here?" I snapped. He raised his hands into a surrendering gesture. "I'm suppose to search this area." He sighed. "Good. Thank you for the chat, if you would excuse me, I have to go." I mumbled and turned away. A hand soon caught my arm. "Whoa. We've searched for hours, I'm not gonna let you go." Cole muttered and tugged me towards the pack house. "Let go you moron." I growled. "Clover, why the sudden hostileness?" He grumbled. "Wait." I said, stopping him in his tracks. He raised an eyebrow in question. "You are Cole... right?" I asked nervously and poking his cheek as I remembered what Sapphire had encountered at the forest the day before yesterday. He swatted my hand away. "No Clover. I'm actually Channing Tatum in disguise." He snorted. "Really? That guy's body is sooo hot..." I sighed. He snorted again and pulled me to the pack house.

"Fuck off Cole." I grumbled. "You gave us a hell lot of trouble young lady." He waggled his finger at me playfully which I rolled my eyes at. "Clover?" I heard another familiar voice and I was at once engulfed into a hug. "Hands of me, Lawrence." I snapped, pushing him back. Hurt flashed in his eyes. Well, you aren't the only one hurt pretty boy. My wolf howled in pain at the memory of being rejected. "You rejected me. What are you doing right now?" I growled and he looked down at his feet guiltily. "I never knew how much you meant to me Clover. Without you, I felt so empty. I'm really sorry. If you forgive me, I want you back as a mate. I'll stop all my player ways. Please, give me a chance Clover." He begged, his hand rubbing his neck, showing his embarrassment. My wolf howled in happiness. I still wanted to tease a little, hell, he deserved it. "I'll think about it." I nodded my face expressionless. "Thank you." He said happily and hugged me again. "Okay, too lovey dovey for me. Hands of her Lawrence. She has got to see the Alpha." Cole pinched the bridge of his nose and Lawrence then recluntly released me.

"Bye Lawrence." I yelled as Cole continued to tug me forward. After a while of silence, he spoke. "You know. You can scream out your happiness." Cole smirked. "What happiness?" I faked innocence. He gave me a flat look and I decided to let the happiness show. "Yes baby! Woo hoo! Take that haters!" I yelled and did an embarassing dance which I call a happy dance. "Okay. Too much happiness." Cole chuckled. "I can't help it." I shrugged and he grinned at me.

Soon, I reached the large door to the Alpha's office.

"Prepare yourself. He hasn't exactly been the cheeriest." Cole warned. "I didn't even know there was a word like that." I snorted and he gave me a bored look. "Now isn't the time to make fun of my vocabulary... I wasn't joking when I said the Alpha isn't in a good mood." Cole groaned. "Of course I know. You wouldn't think he would be cheery after all the things that happened, would you?" I smirked. "I see that Sapphire's fiery attitude had rubbed onto you." Cole groaned in frustration. The mere mention of my friend was enough for my mood to go straight down into a ditch.

"There's no need for you to know." I snapped. "You'll have to tell us eventually." Cole tried to pry the answer out of me. Not gonna happen, buddy. "4 days." I said

down. I gripped the armrest and forced my frantic heartbeats to slow down. "Look. We need to know where she is." Cole said gently. "For what? I told you Cole. 4 days." Clover growled. "4 days what?" My third in command asked exasperated. "I can tell you in 4 days." Clover snarled. I was taken aback by her hostileness. She was always the sweet and gentle type.. What happened? Our mate was what happened, Jay

it was the funniest thing in the world. "What?" I growled angrily. Confessing that he couldn't live without a certain blonde was okay, but being laughed at is another story. She stopped laughing and glared at me heatedly. "She is the one dying inside, you know why?" She took a step forward to me. "Please enlighten me." I said calmly while inside I was boiling like a volcano about to erupt. "She did this to protect the pack. She did this to protect you. And you say it's killing you. Honey, you got it all wrong. Don't you dare find another Luna just because she thinks she failed. She has never failed. Because if she stayed, you guys would be all dead in 4 days. She is the best and bravest person I've ever met. And you

sorry. I can't. We just have to wait 4 days. Just 4 days." Clover begged. "Call me Georgia. And I know dear. I've been counting down the days. But she can't face this alone. She'll end up a murderer to many innocent souls." Mum said seriously. I furrowed my eyebrows at this. What the hell are they talking about? Clover sighed in surrender and nodded at my mother to start talking. She sunk into a seat and became ghostly pale. Obviously thinking what would Sapphire do

to my mother. The secret shocking us

"It wasn't my place to tell. But that girl is more foolish than I thought. I had to take matters to my own hands." She said calmly. "So.. Sapphire, Ryder's mate, is a half demon?!" Cole asked, finally stepping out of what ever trance he was in. "And she will change to her full form in 4 days?!" Alec entered the conversation. "She will kill me for this. I failed the last thing I promised to her."

beautiful her eyes were. I had flashbacks to where I had gawked at her amazing speed and strength. I felt so... guilty. She had this internal battle going for so long and I wasn't even there for her. I felt my heart clench.

that telling you would make things easier, but instead she chose the hard way and broke her own heart in the process. She was quite determined to keep the secret." Mum shook her head, chuckling lightly. That's when I remembered. Sapphire requested to talk to my mum before dinner. She couldn't sleep that night. The fact that something was bothering her was always right in front of me, I just never saw it. She had been troubling about this for so long which frustrated me. And I had claimed that she didn't love me in the dream where I asked her why she wouldn't let us mate. I
