Leo's POV
I knew I shouldn't have said none of what I said to her. But I had to come in in a way she would believe that I don't love her. And besides, I'm not so sure I want to be with her because I'm scared of ending up with the same fate as her other mates. I had decided to take her with me so I can find out the cause and help her.
It was the time for us to leave for my pack, Moonlight Pack and I went to the hotel early. When I got there, Raya was also ready but she was not the usual Raya I know. She wouldn't talk to me but I ignored it as well. I helped her with her bags, we got into the car and drove off. We sat at the back of the car but she wouldn't even look at me or say a word.
"You should at least say something." I broke the silence but she glared at me.
"What do you want me to say? Thank you?"
"Okay! I'm sorry for how I acted the other time. Just let it go."
"It's fine. You acted exactly the way you should." She said and looked out the window.
The journey again was silent till we got to the pack. The maids helped with the bags while we went into the mansion. The maids showed her her room and she left. I decided to give her some time to settle in before I talk about the contact.
Later in the evening, I went knocking on Raya's door but the was she rolled her eyes when she saw me shows I was the last person she wanted to see. She opened the door and I walked further into the room, sat on the couch.
"I'm here so we can sign the document."
"Sure!" She answered sharply and brought the document out from her bag.
She handed me the document and pen after she had signed and I did the same.
"Now, you're mine." I thought as I stared at her beautiful skin.
"My brothers and their wives would be coming soon for dinner. Please, get ready."
"Okay, I will." She said and I left the room.
Raya's POV.
I watched the retreating figure leave my room and was confused if this man really loves me or it's all about the contact. I went to o my box and brought out a red, tight and short gown that Eric got me on one of his trip and wore it. Sounds of greetings could be heard from the living room; his brothers were here.
I looked at myself in the mirror, inhaled and exhaled deeply and stepped out of the room. As soon as I saw Leo's brothers, I felt a tingling sensation in my body; they are also my mates. I felt confused and surprised, especially with the way they stared at me but Leo came to my rescue.
"What's going on here? Why are you staring at my wife like that?" He asked them jokingly and kissed my lips which I welcomed it.
"The table is set, Alpha Leo." A maid said with a bow.
"Thanks, you can go."
She nodded and left.
We headed to the table, Leo having a distant conversation with his brothers. Leo pulled out a seat for me beside him.
"Thanks." I mumbled as I sat down.
"Before we eat, let me quickly do the introduction." Leo started. "This is Grayson and Kane. Those are their wives, Maya and Alyssa." He continued.
"Nice to meet you all. I'm Raya." I said with a beaming smile.
We began to eat but I could notice that Gray and Kane wouldn't stop staring at me and this made their wives glared at me occasionally. I don't know his to explain to anyone of them. Dinner was soon over and I headed to my room but Leo followed me.
"What happened there? I said you can have another man, I never said my brothers." He said, slammed the door and I made a Sharp turn at him.
"Your brothers? You think I like them?......" He cut in.
"You don't like them? What was all that look fit? To seduce them?"
"I'm not here to seduce anyone. I'm here for the deal and nothing else. This would be our first night together, it would be best if you make it good for both of us."
"Sure! And speaking of our first night together, you will be sleeping in my room. I have to mark you as my mate." He swapped and left before I could utter a word.
"Mating me was never part of the plan. Does he really think I'm going to allow him to do that?" I thought.
A moment later, the maids came in and began to pack my bags. It was no pint asking them why or arguing with them so I allowed them do their thing.
"The Alpha wants you in the room, Luna." A maid said to me.
"Lead the way."
"Thank you. You may leave now." I said to the maid at the door and she left.
I opened the door, my eyes ransacked the room which was decorated for a newly wed; it was beautiful and I love every bit of it. I walked in slowly and Leo emerged from the back of the door, making me a bit startled.
"You're no longer a kid, Alpha." I said the last word in a very sarcastic way and rolled my eyes.
"None of that is important. What is important right now is that we are going to share a bed together."
"Yeah. About that. Don't you think it's going to be wrong."
"What's wrong? Mating with my mate?"
"Well, fortunately or unfortunately for you, your brothers are also my mates. I just want to ask for a favour, to spend a night each in their room...." His mood changed at the snap of a finger.
"Just kidding." I laughed.
"Let's go have a bath and sleep."
"Are you ready? Ready to die?"
"Sure, anything for you."
We took our bath and Leo went on to have sex with me. It was fun and the best I had had in a long time.
Suddenly, he began to shake vigorously. It was a sign of death.
Leo had brought a stain to my new life!
"It seem everyone is present" Alicia said, her eyes piercing through the crowd before settling on me."Do you Raya Sean swear by the goddess to say nothing but the truth today?" Alicia, the registrar of a modern court asked in a firm voice, staring deep into my eyes.I could feel my wolf twig a little. Of course I knew what I came here for and it was no other than a reoccurring incident that has been happening in my life for a while now."I swear by the goddess to say nothing but the truth" I swore in a low tone.I could feel my weak self depending on my wolf to breathe well. This wasn't the fist time I was facing the court on this issue. In fact, I had lost count and decided it was best I end it after this one."How do you plead to the death of your mate, Eric?" The Judge's calm voice pierced through my healing heart.I am barely recovering from the trauma of the death of my mate, Eric and they have to do this to me? I wish I wasn't cursed. I wished my mates haven't been dying over
I stood before the judge, my eyes blinking repeatedly mixed with my thoughts and feelings but the Pack doesn't care about how I feel. To them, I'm a killer. The courtroom was silent as the Judge flipped through a big book in front of her to read out my judgement. My heart was in my mouth and my gaze fell on the floor; I wished I could undo all that had happened, especially with Eric."After all said by the Pack and its members......" The Judge adjusted his glasses and continued. "Here is my judgement; that you Raya Sean is hereby banished from Growl Blue Pack, never to return and this shall take effect in five days time."Tears streamed down my cheeks. This is my hometown and now, I'm being chased out of it like an outcast."Failure to leave could lead to death. I rise!" He said and exited the courtroom.Everyone left the courtroom one after the other till I was the only one, murmuring and had my fate in their mouth. I fell to the ground, sobbing hard until I heard a step.It was dark
The next morning, I woke up in my bedroom. I sprang up to a sitting position as I could not remember coming to the bedroom."Leo? I was with him in the living room last night." I thought and sprinted to the living room.I was however caught unaware by this unusual and pleasant aroma that was coming from the kitchen. I could pick Leo's scent from where I was."Could he be the one cooking?""Hey!" I leaned against the kitchen door and waved."Good morning, pretty. How do you feel?""Quite better. Thanks for yesterday. But can I ask a question?""Sure, go ahead." He said, turned off the gas and turned to me."I don't remember going to the bedroom last night...... What happened?""Oh! That? You wouldn't talk and I could not leave you that way. The way you slept on the vouch seemed not so comforting so I took you to your room." He said and I raised a brow."So where did you sleep?""In the living room, of course." He paused and noticed the reaction on my face."Hey, calm down. Don't think
Raya's POVIt's been a month since Leo left. We never exchanged contact so we could not call each other. I had found a job as a janitor few miles away from the hotel and I had been saving up to move out when my rent expires. But I wished I could see him again, at least to thank him and have another smell of his pleasant scent.I was enjoying my day off in the room when I heard a knock on the door. My nose subconsciously sniffed and it was a familiar, pleasant smell. I raced to the door and it was really Leo, I wanted to hug him but I didn't want to make the situation awkward for us."Please, come in." I said with a smile and he walked in.He sat on the chair while I sat on the bed."I never thought I would see you again.""Why would you say that? I would always be here for you" Leo charmed me with his smile."I just wanted to thank you for what you did. You did changed my life and I guess I'm enjoying this new found life.""Without a man?" He asked and I responded with a gloomy look.
