Fated but Hated Chapter 7 - Lachlan
The party was in full swing by the time Marcus and I arrive, more than a couple of shots down. Seemed my friend was not about to let me leave the house having had only one. He was out to ensure I had a good night, and for that I was not going to complain.The moment we arrived to the party we were swamped with well-wishers. Most of whom I had already seen today at my birthday breakfast, or in and around pack, but I was gracious as always. They were, after all, members of the pack I had grown up in, and members of the pack I would be assisting in running once they allowed me to begin my Beta training now I had my wolf. The next stage in my life. One that I had to say I was excited about. Following in my Dad's footsteps. Earning the title he had passed on to me. One my Mum had tried hard to bring me up honourably to earn.Once Marcus and I had managed to ease ourselves away from the majority of the crowd, we noticed three women approaching. All three with affectionate smiles upon their

I made my way around the party, just as my Mum asked, ensuring the food tables were stocked up, and the drink tables too. Vry much being used like staff today, to ensure the party went as smoothly as it could. Heaven forbid that Lachlan did not have the most wonderful party that ever existed. It was on one of those run arounds that I noticed the king of the hour. Beta Blockhead himself. Some slutty-she-wolf draped all over him...No surprise really, we had quite a few she-wolves in pack more than willing to do that to get ahead. My brother had been known to take advantage of his title in that way, as disappointed in him as that makes me to admit it. And, I believe, our very own Alpha, Marcus, had done the same too, until he had met his mate. I think it is just a very shameful part of being a senior role within pack. The lure of the senior title in the pack was appealing to a certain type of she-wolf, and they found themselves flinging themselves upon said wolves at every given opport

Seren’s attitude with me had ruined my mood, and any chance I had with Cara… or Zara… or whatever her name was. So, I had gone back to joining my friends, disregarding my initial plans of spending my birthday evening finding she-wolves to keep me occupied and rid my mind of thoughts of the filthy, repulsive she-wolf that fate had given me for a mate. The night had not gone the way I had hoped. But, my friends were always good company. Especially when we had a few drinks down us.The party was, as parties go, not a bad one. Plenty of laughter, and fun, as to be expected from a pack celebration where there was an ongoing supply of food and alcohol. Music playing until the early hours. Everything a person could want for a party. Yet, I headed home at the end of my party feeling deflated. Like my coming of age had been nothing but a disappointment. Nothing like I had expected.Tyr had slipped to the nether regions of my mind early in the evening, in one hell of a mood with me, likely bec

Already a week into being of age, and I had to say it sucked. I had waited eighteen damn years for this period of my life, and as it turned out, it was nothing but a big, fat disappointment. My wolf had decided he was hibernating. Or, as the case was more likely to be, ignoring me like the ignorant little shit it appeared he was. My wolf was everything I did not want in a wolf. In truth, I had hoped for a wolf that I would gain another friend in, instead it appeared I had gained an enemy. A mortal enemy with the way things were going.I was now having to dodge my friends in their requests to go for a run, both Cole and Marcus desperate to meet my wolf. Neither one having been able to on my birthday, so trying each day since to arrange a chance to train together in our wolf form or run together. There was only one issue with that, the little fucker did not want to come out to play. My wolf was being as awkward as he could be.I liked to keep myself fit, and exercise was an important pa

I stood watching Seren walk away. Her long dark hair swinging as she walked. She was in a hurry to get away from me, that was evident to see. A part of me wanted to go after her, but I stayed, almost fixed to the spot, as she strode further away. While listening to my wolf snarling angrily at me. My gut twisting, along with my heart. I knew the pain she was in. I knew the struggle of losing your father…FLASHBACK – 8 years ago.I played happily with Cole. Climbing the large tree in the garden of their home. The sun was shining and we loved to make the most of the sunshine. Any opportunity to be outside. Climbing trees was one of our favorite things to do, and the one sitting in the Bradshaw's garden was one of the many trees we had fallen from countless times before. The slightly smaller one alongside it was the tree where the treehouse sat. I believed we had fallen from that a few times too. We made a habit of falling. Always so clumsy. Too busy having fun...Thankfully, Aunt Sofia

Today had been a day I had been dreading. But as sure as the sun was to rise, it had arrived. A day that filled me with pain. A day that left me contemplating so much. Reliving memories. My eyes filled with tears. Losing someone you love is the worst imagineable loss, but when that someone is someone you depend upon… turn to… look up to… he had been my everything. Is that not what a Dad was meant to be to his little girl? I had never expected to lose him whilst I was so young. Though, I don’t suppose many people expect to lose the ones they love… and, no matter how hard I tried, I did not know how to make that loss any easier.Three years this year since he had left us. Three years since I had heard his voice. Three years since he had lovingly wrapped his arms around my Mum's waist as she made him his morning coffee, making her giggle, despite their many years together as mates. 1095 days feeling lost without my Dad by my side to turn to for

That smug look lingered across Lachlan's dark features as his smirk widened. His dark eyes never leaving me for a second as he watched me move along the corridor. “Alright, Ren.” He nodded at me, before raising his coffee mug to me.Without further acknowledgement of him, I quickly continued striding along the corridor, before my anger well and truly bubbled out of control. I did not know what he was doing here, and I did not need him here. Marching into the kitchen to find my brother tossing one of the pancakes as I did, he looked up at me with a welcoming smile. The lightness in his face only to be brought down by me as I snapped. “What is he doing here?”Cole’s eyes rolled upward, like he was sick of my words. It was something I had asked him multiple times before. I hated the sight of Lachlan making himself comfortable within our family home, especially when he had his arrogant head on. Unfortunately, as a close family friend, he made

I was doing all I could to avoid my fated mate. The sight of her infuriated me. The sound of her voice made me angry. I could not be near her without fury bubbling through my veins; and that was a dangerous situation to be in. Not to mention difficult, because, Tyr had grown angry with me for my outburst at Seren, and how could I blame him? The fear within her eyes was one of terror. No matter the hate or resentment I may feel for that girl, she should not fear me. No woman should fear me.I think of my mother, and the very thought of her fearing a man, and the thought infuriates me. No woman should be made to feel like that. So, I decided, that because being around Seren was evidently causing me to lose my temper, I should do all I could to avoid her. Stay away from her, and any place she was likely to be. I needed to find another focus.So, I went all in to the Beta training. This was going to be something I needed to do anyway. Soon enough I was to become the Beta of this fine pack

I saw Seren flinch the moment my fist impacted with the countertop, and my body flooded with guilt. She was not meant to be scared of me. Respect me, yes. Being scared of me, not so much. Tyr snarled angrily at me.My wolf may do this apparent disappearing act, which seemed to be happening on a more regularly basis of late, but he also seemed skilled in lingering between the two states it appeared. Monitoring what was happening, so he knew when he may be needed. Shame he had not done that last night when I had needed him. But, it seemed he only bothered to come back when it related to Seren… his priority was most definitely on his fated mate.I chose to ignore my wolf right now, his temper tantrums were growing tiresome, and I still had a headache, so dealing with another moodswing from an angry wolf was not something I wanted to deal with. He just needed to deal with the decisions I was making in regard to Seren. Surely he could understand why
Fated but Hated Chapter 33 - Seren
I was having a lazy morning. After staying so late clearing up the night before, it was more than warranted... I had stayed in bed for as long as I was able, but it had reached the point my back was aching, and I needed to pee, so I had little choice but to get up. And once up, I had decided a coffee was needed. So, I wandered downstairs. The house seemingly eerily quiet, so I could only assume I was on my own.Cole was likely out training, or he would be working, assuming his head was in any fit state, after drinking with Lachlan last night. Mum would be across at the packhouse, where she seemed to spend most of her free time since Dad had passed away. Though, in truth, she spent many hours of her free time there when he had been alive too, a wonderful Gamma’s wife. Full of community spirit, arranging many activities for pack members to join in with, along with my Aunts. The three of them were the perfect example of a pack's senior team's wives.I was only wearing a short pair of sh

Eurrgghh…. Why do my eyes hurt? They aren’t even opened! How can they hurt when they are closed? I bring my hand to my eyes, only slapping myself in the process. Fuck... I think my body is broken. It all hurts... It doesn't want to work the way I want it to. I force myself to half wake up to allow myself to stretch. Totally unsure why my whole body aches so damn much. I feel like I have been run over by a truck! Jeez... I forced my eyelids open, groaning as the sunlight hit my eyes, as Tyr chuckled. I fucking hate my wolf…‘Should have taken better care of yourself.’ My wolf unhelpfully pointed out. No shit...‘Are you not meant to look out for me?’ I questioned, to which he chuckled again. I rolled over, realising with a sinking feeling that I had somehow fallen asleep on the grass outside the gym… wow. I have sunk to new levels, that is for sure. I don't even remember how I had got here. It wasn't even on my way home! I think it is safe to say I may have drunk too much when at my ce

Thankfully the evening had passed relatively quickly. With Ayla by my side I had managed to have some fun, and we found ways to distract ourselves people watching. Chatting. And just generally spending time together, just the two of us. So long as I did not look at Lachlan I found I managed just fine. If he wanted to settle on random she-wolves within pack before finding his fated mate, what business was that of mine? None. Just as my love-life would be nothing to do with him. Not that I think I had a love life now...The celebrations had been every inch the success my Mum and my Aunts could have hoped for. Many happy faces had left gradually over the space of the evening, telling me that we had done a good job with the organization once again. They were a force to be reckoned with those three, and would no doubt be missed when they stepped down from their roles. I had stayed until the end of the celebration, helping to clear up as promised to my Mum.She, and my Aunts had left earlie

The ceremony had taken place, and the celebrations were now well underway. I have to say, sitting and listening to the formalities of Lachlan becoming Beta were every bit as uncomfortable as I had thought they would be. Only made worse by that smug smile he continously seemed to be aiming in my direction. His gaze falling upon me, and that smile lingering upon his lips, like he felt he should rub in this promtion within pack. Knowing I now had to show him respect. He was loving it...But, I could go nowhere, and I could do nothing. I had to sit there calmly, acting as if nothing was wrong. Pretending I was as proud as the rest of the close friends and family with which I was sat with. When in truth I did not care less that Lachlan fucking Lamont had been promoted in pack. It just meant he would use it to make my life harder.I was sitting with my Mum and my Aunts, as that was where I had been placed on the seaing plan. Part of the senior pack families

I had seen the stroppy Seren storm away from me and the warrior leaving us standing staring at one another. Like an icy stand off. He would be a fool if he thought for a moment he stood a chance against me. He was merely a warrior. I had a Beta-wolf. I could easily destroy him. But, instead of doing anything, he gave me a cold stare before turning his back to me, and walking in the opposite direction. Brave for a little fucking warrior. But at least he did not go running after Seren. Hopefully he may have been panicked enough that he would stay away from her. She did not need someone like him in her life, of that I was certain. She belonged to me.My anger was dissipating, and I allowed my gaze to seek Seren out. She infuriated me. The way she challenged me on anything and everything. Like she enjoyed to anger me. I found her almost immediately among the crowds spread out over the training field. That dress she had on was hugging her curves. The curves of a

I stumbled back a little at the tone of Lachlan’s voice. Not to mention the look within his eyes. He looked furious, with no real just cause or reason. He confused me. But what bothered me more was the way Alejandro was backing away. He was freaking out, and who could blame him. He was trying to gain a date with me, and the soon-to-be pack Beta was kicking off at him... I had a feeling any interest Alejandro had in me was disappearing, and fast.“Erm…” I stuttered, unable to find the words I needed right now. God damn my brain!“Lost the ability to speak?” Lachlan snapped. "Seemed to be fine a moment ago while chatting up this one." he pointed aggressively toward Alejandro, before he lurched a little closer to me. In a flurry of movement, Alejandro was moving forward, stepping in front of me, as if he felt he should be defending me. Had he thought I was in danger from Lachlan? My heart was racing beyond belief, and while it was awfully sweet that Alejandro would attempt to defend me,

A huge pack event. Of course it was going to be. It had been the same for Marcus becoming Alpha, and for my brother becoming Gamma. As a pack, it was wanted for the members to celebrate those in charge. They were wanted for them to adored. Respected. And our pack loved to have things to celebrate. This was a day that had been waited for since Uncle Austin had passed away. It was a day the pack was more than ready to celebrate. A day that Lachlan was no doubt more than ready for. Me, however, well, I kinda could not care less...Pack was decked out. And, I meant decked out! My Mum and my Aunts had made sure of that. There would be guests from outside packs attending. And everyone within our pack would be expected to attend, so there would be no hope of avoiding it, even if I wanted to. And I really wanted to...I had done well to avoid Beta Blockhead but today, I would have to see him. There would be no avoding it. I would be expected to be there. Watchng him become the

I stood in front of the mirror looking at my reflection. Today was the day. It was now. I had worked my ass off for the last few years to be the best I could possibly be.“I hope I have made you proud Dad.” I whispered to the empty room I am stood in, unsure if there is such a thing as spirits or not. I had liked to think many a time that my Dad was still with me. The strength behind me. The one pushing me to do better… losing him at such a young age had been hard. He had always been there for me growing up, and as a young boy, I had relied on him. Looked up to him. Respected him. I wanted to be just like him.My Dad was a well respected man in pack. A much-loved figure in his role as Beta, and I hoped when I took my rightful place as Beta today, that I could do my Dad proud. I wanted to be as successful as my Dad had been. Be as kind, and caring as he was, while being ruthless, strong and dominant. Everything a Beta should be. I wanted to be the best at what I was meant to be. I wan
