Chapter Three (Adrian's POV continue)

     *******

  We make our way inside the birthday or inauguration ceremony. Is it? I don’t know what they’re calling this joint celebration. Santiago looks around “Hmm masquerade theme…why wasn’t I told?” 

  I turned to face him, he obviously didn’t go through with the invitation. “Did you read the entire invite?” 

    “Oops.” He grits his teeth as we walk further into the room. 

 All eyes are on us, wait did I say us?  Let me rephrase that, All eyes are on me. I keep a straight face as we proceed to walk to the table reserved for us and we take our seats. People continue to gape and talk in grumbles. Santiago reaches for a glass of whiskey and chunks it down, dismissing the stares we are getting.

  “Once again you've managed to take word out of everyone's mouths, classic.” He murmurs, making me laugh. 

  I grab a mask from a waiter, quickly placing it on my face. People are afraid of me and with reasonable justification. I am Alpha Adrian after all no one comes close to me except for maybe one person, Alpha Ryan. That might be the reason why we don't see eye to eye.  

  The night starts out smoothly. Girls throw themselves at us but I'm somehow not able to flirt back. My Wolf is angry. He has never been fascinated by the thought of getting laid, he contemplates it as infidelity to his mate.

 I haven’t met her though it was to happen before I turned 18 and I pray it doesn't transpire because Mates are absurd they just make you weak and bring you down. Who needs a mate? not me, that's who and if I do ever meet her I will reject her because I would rather die than waste my costly time on a Mate. 

  Sandy, a girl from my pack who occasionally warms my bed approaches us and sits next to me. She's a good lay nothing more, I couldn't possibly fall in love with any woman I'm more of a lone wolf. 

 “Alpha Adrian, I was thinking.... ” My hand brushes the side of her cheek, “You're not good at thinking baby.” 

“True.” she giggles. “But this is an idea that you'll like very much.”

“Tell me.”

She smiled, leaning into my ear, “I was thinking we could do that thing you like, I have two friends who would like to join.” 

“The more the merrier baby.” I playfully nibbled on her ear. 

  Cutting through Sandy's giggling, is the voice of my Wolf, Hunter. You know that voice inside your head? Not your conscience, the other one, the one well that's hunter for me, only I can hear him. He lives in the back of my head just like every person's Wolf. We communicate mentally so no one ever really hears mine and Hunter's conversations. I've been tunning him out since we got here but he won't cease to unnerve me. 

   “What is it Hunter?” I sneer. 

    “She's here.”

   “Don't start again with that crap you're alone she's never coming forget it, it's  been over six years and you still tell me the same story.. not good Hunter.”

  “It's different. I can feel that she's here. She's in this building. I can sense her.” He growls. 

 I know this will end with mental torture or physical torture so to avoid this squabble, I kick my feet to the ground. Sandy’s eyes fly to mine “Umm Alpha, where are you going?” Placing a hand in my pocket, I grin at her. “Just taking a walk, why don't you and your little friends keep Beta company?” I wink. She giggles, staring at Santiago who hates me and is probably screaming for help in his head. He is not a fan of Sandy but unlike me, won’t push a girl off his lap.

   I decide to look upstairs but before that I take a quick trip to the bathroom in the east wing. The lights go out and I make my way with the help of my flashlight, dashing through the crowd without bumping into anyone only to bump into some girl. 

  I reach out my hand to help her up but instead of grabbing it, I feel her soft, gentle, trembling hand on my cheek. When the lights come on I snap out of it. I push her hand away and look for the nearest exit, my heart is racing, my Wolf is screaming and worst of all I can still feel her hand on my cheek. 

My mind seems to have lost the map to this building I've been in a million times. 

  Alas I find myself outside. Air, so much air. I need this air!

“Why did you do that?” My Wolf inquire’s. 

  “Shut up! ”

“That was her!”

  “I know.” 

  “She needs us.”

  “Who is us Hunter?” I growl aggravated by the fact that he dragged me to her. I can’t get over the fear in her eyes, the way she quivered.

 “She is our mate, our Luna.”

 “Weak. Weak, weak.” I chant, “Don't tell me you couldn't smell the fear in that girl and those hands that have never held a weapon nor held a training yard gate.” I snap. 

“What pack is she from?”

“I don't give a shit Hunter and forget we saw her.” 

I reach for my phone and text Santiago to meet me outside. My Wolf and I have nothing in common. He is sensitive when it comes to the mate issue but I on the other hand, well you already know my views on the matter.

I'd manage to keep my daughter locked but with Camilla something just happens to me guilt maybe or love whatever it is it makes my life a living hell. I took her breakfast to her and she refused to eat. I intended to keep her for a month but we couldn't let her go just yet. We had to be sure she was going to be herself and not relapse. Amaya holds a family photograph of Arieya as she points at the picture of the girl rocking a blue princess gown with a crown on her head. “And who is this?” Amaya began. “Are we really doing this again? I know what my daughter looked like at 7 and a ½ months.” Camilla brushes the exercise to the side. Her drowning eyes aren't helping, she lacked sleep all through the night as she stayed awake crying her heart out. I know she misses her family and love but we can't trust Camilla with the responsibility of being with herself. It's a

    My memory hit when my gaze falls on the phone clutched on Arieya’s right hand. “What are you doing with Kendall's phone?” “I was talking to mommy on it and she said you call her.” Adrian and Santiago looked at me. Surely Arieya had an imaginary friend but she wasn't one to lie unless prompted by someone. Arieya's lips widened with a bright smile. “Call her.” I took my phone and called Sheryl. She picked up after 2 rings. “Sheryl?” “Beta hey I was wondering when you'd call?” Sheryl responds from the corner of her phone. I moved aside from everyone and finds a safe spot to investigate. “Arieya tells me you called her with Camilla.” “Yes we did, Camilla came around 2 days ago and she's been asking for Arieya.” Sheryl speaks like it wasn't a big deal. She must be kidding; she knew how strained and terrible things had been during Mia's absence why keep us in the dark on this little upliftment. “2 days... Does that mean she's okay now?” “We'll have to keep her her

She was heartbroken, to her Camilla was her mother and she wanted her to always be. Arieya sat with Karla on the swing they weren't playing, they just sat there watching the kids play. “Beta I'll see you later.” She said smiling. “Won’t you wait for your husband?” “No Santiago will be here any minute but I have to pick Anastasia from the airport.” I nodded and hugged her goodbye.

Santiago takes Arieya and she complies. “Camilla Mia Burton, will you have Adrian Carter to be your husband to live together in holy marriage?

    Alpha's Hated Mate Camilla's POV I woke up next to flowers, beautiful red roses next to me and a box of chocolates aside. I tried to wrap my head around everything I was thinking of. I thought it was a dream but the bite marks on my thighs and tame soreness between my legs convinced me it was a reality. I couldn't believe so many things happened overnight from me poking my arms with a knife to Adrian punishing me for it. My life changed so fast I woke up single yesterday and went to bed as a fiancee who knows maybe tomorrow I'll wake up a wife unless I'm still dreaming. I quickly checked my hand and relaxed when I saw a ring. As I admire the beautiful diamond shining on my finger, my bedroom door opens wide and Arieya, Karla, Stacey & Zuri walk in; they're dressed in gorgeous little elegant dresses. “Oh my God.” I breathe out. The mother fucker meant every single fucking thing he said. “I feel stupid pretty.” Arieya giggles.I gulped, flickering to everyone

I knocked on her door and she didn't respond but it was slightly open so I went in. “Mia.” I said under my breath when I saw her sitting at the edge of the bed with her eyes closed. Her bed had files on it and two laptops. What caught my eye was the pocket knife beside her with blood stains. I scanned her body and my eyes landed on her arm where I saw dried blood and fresh blood rolling down her arm. “Oh God Mia what have you done?”She opens her eyes and closes them before opening her eyes again today. “Adrian.” she whispered softly. “What are you doing to yourself baby?” I cried. “Nothing.” She shakes her head in denial but I'm no fool to see the evil she subjected her poor self. “The little pocket knife stained with blood tells me a different story.” “I wasn't trying to kill myself.” Camilla says laughing. “I know. You were just trying to feel.” “Yes now what are you doin
