CLAIRE's POVI had been tormented all my life, I had been mistreated all my fucking life and treated like shit. All that was not as painful as what was happening in that moment because I had been made to believe that I had deserved all the sorrow that came my way. I was told that, as an omega, I was prone to suffering. I was every wolf’s doormat and I was to be grateful for not being killed out rightly.But this? This was all shades of wrong.I heard them all, their insults, their jeers against me. It was all so painful.I was supposed to find my mate so he would make me happy for the rest of my life, my status as an omega would not mean jack shit to him. He would love me for who I was and he would protect me.I laughed bitterly even as I felt the throbbing headache from the punch and the blood seep into my eyes. I blinked it off, trying to get my beating and understand what had just happened to me.My mate was supposed to be a dream come through, not this one though. This one made
DOMINIK's POVI was torn.Devastated.I did not know what to do and that made me feel like shit.I did not know if I should go downstairs and yank off the heads of the pack members who dared to hurt my mate, or if I should snap at my mate for being so stupid to go out in a place where she knew she was not loved.Obviously I chose the latter. Fuming as hell, I burst into the room with her just as she was about to sit on the bed."What the fuck did you do?!" I bellowed and she snapped her head up at me in surprise.I almost hated myself for the choice I made when I saw the hurt in her eyes directed at me.I hurt her. How? I did not know. My wolf started prancing about in my mind, agitated and pissed off as hell at me.Why did I hurt our mate?"What?" She whispered, her voice breaking.Not just her voice, she was breaking apart. I could feel it.But I could not allow myself to care, no matter how much I hated what I was about to do. This was the only way I knew. The only way she would
CLAIRE's POVI sat in my room - Dominik’s - room all day, downcast and utterly drained. I tried not to panic about the fact that I did not feel my wolf anywhere near me. I had been hurt by the pack members and my mate.She had also been hurt so I decided that she was having an alone time to lick her wounds.Silently, I wondered how I had ever lived without her. She was the crazy to my sane.She gave me the sultry and stubborn head vibe. I did not really understand where I had suddenly gotten my craziness at first but after Dominik had left the room, it started to dawn on me.The first time in my entire life when I felt I did not want to just lie low and take peoples insults was the night she finally came out. She was like a different entity entirely, an entity that lived in my head and sometimes took over my body. Where I was indeed weak and submissive, she was crazy and sultry and stubborn and … crazy.And now that she was not here, it all felt weird to me.I had been drained bo
CLAIRE's POVAfter a few seconds of sad silence and wound washing, Luis suddenly perked up as if a thought entered his head and I frowned up at him in question.“I think I know what could make your day lively.”I eyed him suspiciously. I wanted to tell him that nothing could make my day happy but I was also curious to hear what he had to say. “What?”“A run.”Elide perked up immediately at that but I quickly pushed her down again, trying not to act like I was in anyway interested in what was happening.“A run.” I repeated like a robot. Then a thought entered my head and I smiled. “A lone run?”Luis scrunched up his nose in reply at that. “Ew, no… why would you want to go for a lone wolf run? You have a pack.”I rolled my eyes. “The better question should be, why the hell would you think I would want to run with a pack as hateful as this? Is that another form of torture I do not know about?” I asked, ignoring my pacing wolf, she was anticipating the run already and I could not deny tha
CLAIRE's POVI felt it the moment Elide broke free, my limbs elongating and stretching to a crazy limit that I thought my bones would pop. It felt like hours but actually it was just seconds.I opened the red door in my mind and this time Elide did not take her sweet time strutting out, she pounced, eager.And with a loud, earth cracking howl, my shiny black wolf with grey grey eyes popped out and without waiting to see if Luis was beside her or not.She raced off like she was being chased, right towards where her dangerous looking mate was circling lazily, as if waiting for something, or someone.The horny dogs.Elide gave a wolfy smirk as she walked towards where he was, circling and pretending to focus on whatever he was pawing at on the earth. The rest of the pack members were nearby, playing and running or just lazying around. Elide could not deny the joy she felt in her heart at the thought of belonging with these people.But at that moment, that was not really what was on her m
Chapter 21DOMINIK's POVI felt my wolf’s confusion and pain as though it were mine as we watched our mate stalk off, anger and hatred blazing in her eyes.My wolf could not understand for the life of him why she was behaving the way she was. We wanted to be near her so much, we needed her badly. And watching her walk away like we did not matter was one of the worst things I had to endure while being stuck in a wolf’s body.I felt him growl low in his belly as we stalked towards her even though she clearly said she would not allow anyone follow her. I was Alpha, she was my mate.Mine.MINE. My wolf echoed and we stalked towards her, watching her silky black fur shimmer under the sun as she walked towards the nearby water fall, silent and moody.We stopped a few feet away away from her as she also stopped by the water and sat down with a sad and annoyed huff.What could we do?My wolf was not interested in hearing the reasonable side- me, telling him that we should not care.No, he w
CLAIRE's POVI felt my heart stop in my chest as I stared at her. My heart stopped and every good thing that I ever witnessed in life turned sour.She was the real and hidden definition of beauty. Her hair was a lovely mixture of brown and golden honey, eyes a very pretty and unearthly shade of light gold.Hatred, jealousy and extreme sadness bloomed in my chest as I took in her tanned body with the perfect cheekbones and well proportioned body.Her name was Sorcha.Dominik said her name was Sorcha and she was to take my place as luna.I had thought things between I and Dominik would change. I thought things were changing when his wolf had nudged Elide, asking for forgiveness, we had given him our forgivenesses and I now realized I was a fool for allowing that. Once I had opened my heart and forgiven him, the mate pull had yanked so hard on our cords, wanting us to mate. I felt his stiffness and want and he had scented my need.I was overcome with need by the time he had shifted and
DOMINIK's POVI maintained my stoic and expressionless face till Claire left the pack house.To anyone watching me, they would have had no idea how much I wanted to run after her, make her stay, make her mine. But,I had always been good at hiding my emotions anyways, so even if my heart was shredding to pieces, even if my wolf wanted to literally crawl out of my chest, I held my ground and let the slinky bitch beside me wrap her arms around my neck like she owned me.If I could, I would snap her head in one swift move and remind my pack members why I was the most feared alpha in the whole fucking continent.Once Claire left though, I growled loud in my throat and shoved Sorcha away from me. "Do not fucking touch me ever again." I snarled in her face and she whimpered, taking a frantic step away from me.Good, she deserved it and more for the hurt she had caused my mate, how dare she?My wolf snarled at me to fucking end her right in that spot, make sure no one else tried to toy with m
