One mate and a Rejection novel Chapter 10

PART 1 Chapter 10 — 01

Blades Pov

 

I stared at her for a long time,watching as she purred and rubbed her nose against me.

My wolf shook with lust and compassion,begging me to let him release all his love physically.

I wanted to shift.

It's not as if I didn't want to.

In fact,it took all my self—control to remain from knocking her beautiful wolf into the ground and having my way with her.

But I couldn't.

Revealing myself to her would just create complications and unwanted drama.

How would she feel being mated to an enemy? How would my father feel if he was alive? Everything he's worked so hard to build up would all come tumbling down.

My life was too busy for a mate anyway.

The pack has been getting ready for a rogue attack,and the guy that had attacked Emerald was a sign that they're close.

Having her near me would only provide her with danger.

Besides,I'm positive she would reject me as soon as she found out my true identity and I wasn't sure if I could take any more rejection.

I gave her one last kiss,staring into her enchanting green eyes while tying my shirt to her knee and took off running,knowing she would follow me.

It was wrong,and strongly forbidden to leave your mate the night they shift but this situation required it.

As much as I hated the distance I was putting between us,it needed to be done.

She was merely a fledgling so it didn't take that long to lose her and when I did,I hung my head low and went home.

Emerald's Pov

Sunlight poured down on my face,making me squint my eyes and wake up.

My vision was blurred for a moment but eventually became clear,providing me with sight.

I looked around,taking in my surroundings with my improved senses.

I was in the forest,lying besides a tree,alone.

I looked down at my body and noticed I was naked and covered in mud.

Confused,I noticed a blue t—shirt tied to my knee.

Everything from last night came rushing into my mind.

The date with Ben.

Walking into the forest.

Shifting.

Finding my mate,only to have him run off.

I struggled through my tears and put on the shirt.

How thoughtful of him,! thought,sarcastically.

I was never expecting to find my mate,nor was I expecting myself to be so attracted to his nightshade black wolf.

Just thinking about it,] wanted to run my fingers through his thick fur,savoring the feel of every single one.

I sighed,swallowing back the lump in my throat.

My nose came down to smell the shirt I've worn.

It smelled like dirt and trees.

And something else.

Something that's meant only for me and I loved it.

I ripped the top of the shirt away from my face,already feeling dizzy and light headed with the intoxicating smell.

I suddenly wanted to know who he is.

How handsome must he be? As handsome as Jared? Or maybe more handsome? Could it be possible that someone out there is more beautiful than him? I sighed again and decided to clear my thoughts of both Jared and my stranger mate.

I grew curious towards why he rejected me.

Maybe he didn't want a mate.

Or maybe he just didn't want me for a mate.

This is stupid,I thought,I'm only bringing more pain to myself.

But as I walked the long way home,! couldn't help but think,was there something wrong with me? Thirty minutes later,I approached my house,rolling my eyes when I saw mom and dad seated on the porch.

Mom sprang up and ambushed me in her embrace,shouting out words I couldn't understand while dad stood besides us,smiling proudly.

“You made it!"

screamed my mom,"

You're a wolf!"

I laughed,"

Mom,lower your voice,there are neighbors."

“Oh oops,’ she giggled,holding me tighter.

"You're gonna kill me!"

I choked out.

She finally let go and turned to my dad,"

Make sure to thank Ben for helping my little baby."

“Definitely,"

said dad.

“Ben didn't help me,"

I said.

They turned their shocked gazes at me,’ what?"

“I didn't ask him to.

I just told him to drop me off by the forest."

"Why would he agree—"

"I lied and said I'm going to my friend's house.

It isn't his fault."

"Then who helped you?"

dad asked.

Images of my mate flickered in my vision but could I tell them? Was I ready? "N—no one.

I just managed."

I left them staring at me as I walked upstairs,hoping I didn't smell of my mate.
