A Mate Not For Sale SIX | A Good Decision To Make
I couldn't stop crying for a while and Alaila did not try to stop me either. She let me cry all I want and only patted me at some point. I could tell she was in tears too. After a while, I sniffed and pulled away from her."It's ok," she told me and I sighed.It should be ok, right? I have always hoped to meet my mom, and that had kept me going, but now, I do not know if I can keep going."What will I do now?" I asked and Alaila stared at me. "Who should I live for?" She sighed. "You should live for yourself, Xavia. You don't have to live for anyone""Myself?"She nodded. "Yes, yourself. You have a good life ahead of you. And you have me too""Alaila..."She placed her hand on my shoulder. "I do not want you to have a bad thought, Xavia. You have to be positive, ok?"I nodded, not in agreement but to make her stop worrying about me. I smiled at her and she smiled too. There was a knock on the door and Alaila stood up."I will check who is at the door. You should wipe your face"I nod

We walked into the room and boom!!! "Happy birthday!" was echoing all over the room. I blinked in surprise and happiness. Helen, Mary, and other maids were present. Jason was in the room too and he had a cake in his hands. Tears gathered up in my eyes. This was the least I had expected from them. I watched them sing a happy birthday song for me and I tried not to break down in tears.It was getting too much for me to bear. Just watching them sing for me with happiness, made me tear up."It's ok" Alaila patted my shoulder with a smile on her face."Thank you, very much, every one of you. Thank you" I cooed."Happy birthday, Xavia," Jason said, stretching the cake to me. "You should put off the candles' light,"I moved closer to him and blow off the candles' light. Clapping and shouting erupted and I smiled. They reminded me so much about my mom. And though I wanted to break down and weep because I miss my mom so much, something held me back."This is not the time to cry" I heard a voic

AXEL I groaned slightly, my body hurting so badly. I could feel my bones cracking and I couldn't help but howl in pain. It was my transformation period, which for an average wolf, is too late. Also for an average Lycan, it is a year or two too late. I was twenty and I am yet to completely change into a Lycan wolf and someone who sees me for the first time and doesn't know anything about wolves or Lycans will take me as a monster.I was born special which made my transformation slower than others. Also, being from the Alpha's Lineage had added to it. Every full moon, I go through a painful transformation and I have never looked forward to another full moon.I whined a bit when the pain subsided. The room was quiet and dark but I could see through my Lycan eyes. Jason had gone to the packhouse to get a blanket. I noticed a rabbit had entered the room. At first, I ignored it but the hunting instinct in me made me dash towards it. I caught it and deep my claws into it, pulling it apart i

XAVIA I had not expected that leaving the Lycan pack would be difficult for us and we will get caught so soon. I also did not expect that after being caught, the Lycan Alpha will agree to let us leave. And though he never wanted us to come with him in the first place, I thought he might want to keep us with him, now that we know his secret."Did he really, say we can leave?" I asked Jason with suspicion written all over my face.It's difficult to believe that he will let us go just like that. Jason had this convincing look but I couldn't help but doubt him."Are you sure?" I asked again and he nodded with a smile."Of course, you can. He has no reason to keep you and you know he will never keep you in the Lycan pack out of your free will. He only asked me to make sure you leave this place without being attacked" I sighed. "That won't be necessary. We can take care of ourselves. We can find our way out too""Do you think that is a good idea?" Alaila whispered. "You don't expect that

GILBERTWhen Arden walked into my room with a grin, I knew he had some mischief up his sleeves, so I decided to ignore him. I pretended to focus on the book in front of me and even nodded over nothing. He tapped the table slightly."Guess who returned to the Ice pack," he said. I opened a new page, ignoring him. "Gilbert? Gilbert?" he cooed. "You..."I groaned, hitting the table. "Hey!!! You just spoke more than three words to me""No, I did not. I only said two words. Gilbert and you"I scoffed. "Guess who returned to the Ice pack. Are those not considered words?"He chuckled, sitting beside me. I moved away from him. "I thought you did not hear me. Never knew you did. You seem focused on..."I rolled my eyes and opened to the next page. "I heard you clearly""Then why did you not give me a reply?""Why should I?" I muttered. "Because you spoke more than three words" I replied."Because I spoke more than three words? Is that supposed to be a reason?". I ignored him. "Why did you not

"Do you always talk back to others" I found myself asking and she stared at me in confusion."I don't get you" she replied, her brows furrowed. "Can you explain to me in a better way?""You want me to explain to you?" I asked in surprise.Aside from Arden and my mom, no one has ever asked me to do that. She nodded. "Isn't that the best thing to...""Can you please shut up!" I yelled at her and she sighed. "I don't think..."I glared at her and she kept shut. I groaned. I wanted to hate her guts for having such courage but I found myself admiring her for that. "Can I..." I stared at her and she sighed. "I almost forgot I am not allowed to speak"I decided it was best to ignore her. I could tell she was trying to provoke me but I couldn't say why.Maybe she wants revenge, I thought.But she would not have brought herself here if that is the case. Right now, she is at my mercy.She would not do anything that would put her into trouble, or would she? I wondered.I left her standing and

Arden gave me a disapproving and disappointing look and I regretted for a few seconds telling him about the plan."Why are you yelling?" I asked. "You want to sell someone off and you expect me to keep calm? Are you for real?" he said almost in a yell and I had to cover his mouth with my hand."Can you bring your voice down? Someone might hear you" I said."Someone? Hear me? In this soundproof place called a room?"I chuckled slightly. "Is that supposed to be a compliment?""It's not time to make jokes. Tell me, do you want to sell her off?""Isn't that the only option here"He scoffed. "Of course not. Have you forgotten about the...""Do you have any idea?""How about you make her work for you?""That is not a good idea. I do not want her anywhere close to me""That will not be the case for your mother""That is the reason I suggest selling""That is not an option. Why would you think of such? It doesn't make any sense""Then suggest an idea that makes sense and stop getting on my n

"Are you sure it's not necessary?" I asked with a smirk and he nodded. "But you can as well...". "Gilbert, I do not want to dare you. I want to live the best of my life as a free person, and not in the cell" he said and I smirked."You better not. Now start talking before I...""Fine" he muttered moving close to me. He whispered some words to me and I smirked."That sounds like a good idea. But are you sure it will work?" He nodded. "Trust me, it will"I smiled. "You are finally acting like my best friend""How have I been acting before? Your Beta"I scoffed. "No. Like my enemy"He frowned. "Are you saying I...""Make use of the door," I said pointing at the door.He blinked. "You want me to leave?""Did you hear something different or do you want me to call the guards on you?""You can't treat me that way. I am your...""You want to tell me how to treat you?"He stood up. "Of course not. I am just saying..."I picked up the magazine on the table and flipped through some pages while

A Mate Not For Sale SEVENTY-ONE | A Wedding To Remember
XAVIAIt had been months since everything had returned to normal and I had been living a peaceful life. I heard that Gilbert has left for a faraway land to work on himself, after he apologized sincerely to his Pack members, his mom, Arden, and Kate. I was told he wanted to apologize to me too but he knew I was not going to give him an audience. I had refused to see him not because I had not forgiven him but because I did not want him to feel bad when he saw me and though I hadn't seen him since he left, he sent a letter through Kate. When I read the letter, I was very happy. I was happy that he had finally accepted his fault and was willing to change. Kate told me he has been calling her frequently these days and is showing interest in her. She told me she might be giving him a second chance once he comes back.She doesn't know when he will come back but she is willing to wait. Her words touched me. I feel happy that they will be getting back together. She deserves to be happy. He does

I was not expecting anyone to come for me. I know that what I did to them was hurtful and I do not deserve their sympathy. Neither was I expecting Arden to come for me.How am I going to face Arden? I wondered. How am I going to face him after everything?I stood rooted to my spot and the guards did not hasten me up to leave. For some reason, they treated me with respect."Why are you treating me well? Why are you not treating me as a criminal?" I asked."Our Alpha asked that we treat you well because you are an Alpha of a Pack" one of them said.I was surprised. I did not expect the Lycan King to tell them such.Could Xavia be the reason he is treating me well? I wondered.I walked out of the cell and headed outside. I was surprised to see not only Arden but also Kate. I blinked. She was the last person I was expecting to see.Why is she here? I wondered. "K-Kate?" I mumbled and she smiled at me but said nothing.I could not move closer to them. I stood rooted to my spot not knowing
A Mate Not For Sale SIXTY-NINE | Time To Make A Change
The GILBERTWhen Xavia told me she did not hold any grudges against me I was ashamed of myself. I had not expected that from her despite everything I did to her. What I expected was a fierce, angry, and revengeful Xavia. The one who will treat me as badly as I have treated her or even more. But the one who stood before me was the kind-hearted Xavia who stared at me with pity. I stared at her right from the cell in which I was locked and my heart bleed.How did I come to be like this? How was I cruel enough to treat someone like Xavia very badly? She was a good person. She has always been.I looked away quickly. I could not keep looking at her. I had not thought there would be a time when I would feel humiliated. A time that I would feel ashamed and remorseful for everything I have done."I-I am sorry" I muttered. "I should not have lusted after you. I felt guilty that I treated you so badly, yet you did so well. I thought getting you back was the only way I would stop feeling guilty

I turned to face her. "I do not understand why he spoke to Jason about the contract. He never spoke to me about wanting me back""I knew he had always had an ulterior motive. It was obvious. I told you he is cunning""You did but I still do not get it. We spoke yesterday, right before I came to meet you and he said nothing to me about wanting me back as his mate. He never spoke about me being his mate. It was strictly about the gold business""His motive would have been obvious if he had spoken about it. He needed you to trust him and you did""But why would he ask Jason for a contract that is about six years old?""To take you back, I guess""Why would he want to take me back? Even if he wants to, why would he talk about the contract""He couldn't wait anymore for you to come back to him, I guess"I scoffed. "Does he think I am going to return to him if he goes about it this way?""That might be his easiest way""Are there not other ways he can use to try to woo me back? What gives h

XAVIAI noticed that Axel had been acting strange recently. Aside from him being worried that I would choose Gilbert instead of him, I could tell there was something else causing him to worry. I became worried too. I spoke to Alaila about it and she told me it might be work and the Pack affairs."I do not think it's any of these two," I said."How are you sure about it?"I shrugged. "I am not sure but I do not feel those are the reasons"She sighed. "Do you have anything in mind? I mean anything you considered may be the reason?""I can't think of any" I answered. "If you cannot think of anything then I will suggest you stop getting worried too""I wish I could but I can't. Seeing him worry makes me worry too""Have you tried speaking to him about it?""I spoke to him and he said he is worried that I will choose Gilbert over you""Why would you do that? You have no reason to""I told him that. I told him I did not have any reason to go back to Gilbert. He is worried that if I keep ta

She stared at me. "I am not asking you not to worry now". She placed her hand on my face and smiled. "But I want to know why you are worried". I stared at her but said nothing. "Come on, tell me why you are worried," she said and I sighed."I am worried that you will choose him over me"She stared at me. "Yo-you are joking right?""I am not" I replied. "I have tried not to think about it but I can't help it""Why would you think of such? Do you think I am going to leave you for Gilbert?" she asked and I sighed. "Do you not trust me?""I trust you" I muttered. "But I do not trust the mate bond""What do you mean?""He is your mate...""Was my mate" she corrected. "He rejected me, remember?"I sighed. "I know he rejected you but what...""Axel, can you stop worrying about nothing?"I held her hand. "I have every reason to be worried. He is your mate and you belong to him too""I do not belong to him. I already told you that he rejected me""I know he did. But what if he changes his mind

AXELJason told me that the Ice Pack Alpha would be coming later with his Beta to the company and I asked Xavia to stay back in the Packhouse after she closed from school. I do not want her to meet with him and remember her experience with him, which is why I do not want her to come to the company. I can still remember how she stared at him in fear when she saw him."Why do you not want me to come to the company?" she asked."I want you to get some rest" I replied."But I have a lot of work to do at the company""I will ask Jason to help you do them""I do not want Jason to help me. I want to..."I held her hand. "Xavia, I know how school has been these days. You are also preparing for your exams. Adding the company's work will only make you become stressed out. You need as much rest as you can get now ""Can I at least go today? I can stop going to the company tomorrow""Hey, babe. I want you to rest until you are done with exams""That's too far. I...""How about you take this week
A Mate Not For Sale SIXTY-FOUR | Desiring His Mate
I never thought that I was going to like Xavia, after all the things we experienced together but ever since I came back from the meeting in the Lycan Pack and set my eyes on Xavia, I could not stop thinking about her. At first, I thought it was because she was now the Spirit Princess but I soon realized that I liked her. It was never supposed to happen. I was never supposed to like someone I rejected some months ago, but right now that is what is happening.I was to meet up with the spy today. To avoid anyone being suspicious, I asked that he meet me in the garden. I sat in the garden waiting for him and when he finally showed up, I stood up."Hope you have enough information for me," I said and he nodded.I have been curious to know how she got to the Lycan Pack. I could remember that Arden had told me she said she was never going to return to the Lycan Pack and for some reason, I suspected that she had a bad experience there, which I presumed to be worse than the one she experienced
A Mate Not For Sale SIXTY-THREE | She Looks Different
GILBERTThere was a general meeting in the Lycan Pack and I was to attend it with Arden. This was going to be the first meeting I would be attending in a long while and I wasn't looking forward to it. I had not expected my mother to send Arden to me to prepare to attend the meeting. When she found out about me rejecting Xavia, she was furious and she asked me to apologize to the Pack members and step down for a while but I refused. There was no way I would apologize to the Pack members for rejecting my mate. Was she, not the one who asked for the rejection? I insisted that I had no reason to apologize and that got her angry. I did not expect that she would apologize to the Pack members on my behalf and tell them I agreed to step down until I felt remorseful.Would I ever be remorseful? That was my first thought. I had done nothing to be remorseful for.My mom commanded the guards not to allow me to leave my room but she knew that they would not be able to hold me back so she visited h
