CHAPTER SIX – I am not going
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Selene’s POV
“I am not going,” I muttered as I started walking away from my father.I had no reason to be there anymore. My mom’s body was gone. I wasn’t going with my father and I didn’t want to talk to him again. There was no need for me to linger at the burial site any longer. I was going to go home, sleep on my mom’s bed, and scream my eyes out.I wasn’t going with my father anyplace. There was no friggin way that I was abandoning my rucksack. There was no friggin way that I was going anywhere with that dude.“Selene!” he yelled after me.I didn’t react. I didn’t even turn around.The dude left me. He deserted my mom. I didn’t need him or his sympathy money.“Selene!” he called me again, but this time I heard him following behind me.I started walking faster.“Selene, stop!” my father shouted.I ignored him.My heart was thumping a mile a minute. I wasn’t leaving. I wasn’t leaving my pack. I wasn’t leaving my house. My mom’s stuff was there. I wasn’t going to leave the spot that reminded me of my mom. Her fragrance was still there. I couldn't leave. I didn’t want to leave.I felt tears flow down my cheeks.Someone grabbed my arm and stopped me.I sensed wrath mounting.“Selene, please,” my father begged.I tried to withdraw my arm from his hold, but he merely tightened his grip on it.“I know I screwed up, Selene,” he groaned as he turned me around. “Please let me make it right.”I squinted my eyes at him.“I don’t need you to make it right,” I said. “I don’t need your help. My mom and I were well on our own. I am going to be OK on my own.”“You do need his help, Selene,” Alpha Jasper moaned. “You don’t have money. You are about to lose your house. You need your father’s help.”A searing agony surged across my chest. I felt tears in the corners of my eyes, but these weren’t sad tears, they were furious ones. I always sobbed when I was furious and I despised it.“I can work more,” I responded, my voice hoarse. “I can take more shifts. You can offer me a job in the packhouse. I can…”“Selene,” Alpha Jasper interrupted me.He groaned and withdrew my father’s fingers away. He drew me into a hug and the tears finally spilled on my cheeks.“You need to go with your father, Selene,” Alpha Jasper remarked quietly.“Why?” I asked, trying to stop my voice from cracking. “I don’t need him. I don’t want to go with him. I can remain here. I can remain at the packhouse. I can work as much as you need me to.”Alpha Jasper moaned as he let me go. He placed his hands on my shoulders and bent down.“You know the pack rules, Selene,” he added. “You can’t live in the packhouse until you get your wolf.”I stiffened my jaw.“Can’t you make an exception?” I begged. “I am 17. I will be 18 in nine months.”Alpha Jasper took a big breath and exhaled it gently.“I can’t do that, Selene,” he murmured, hurting my heart all over again. “You are not the first wolf to lose a parent. Usually, the wolves that are underage go live with their family. Your father is the only living relative you have.”I attempted to gulp down the lump in my throat.“So you are exiling me?” I asked gently.“Goddess, Selene, no!” Alpha Jasper exclaimed. “The minute you turn 18 and get your wolf you can come back and live in the packhouse.”I looked down and took a long breath.“I am so sorry, Selene,” Alpha Jasper groaned. “Your mom wanted you to go live with your dad.”I looked up at my father and his new mate.“My mom forgave him for what he did,” I added. “I never will.”My father closed his eyes and took a big breath.“You don’t need to forgive me, Selene,” he murmured as he opened his eyes and stared at me. “You just need to let me take care of you.”I wanted to escape away. I wanted to disappear. I wanted to find another pack and start over.But I knew what would happen the minute I left my rucksack. I still didn’t have my wolf and I felt unprotected. The rogues would devour me alive, and if they didn’t and I somehow made it to another pack, they would send out a message that there was a 17-year-old she-wolf on the run. I would end up back here or with my father.I couldn't go away and start my life in another pack until I was 18.“You won’t be taking care of me,” I answered coldly. “I will find a job at your pack. I shall feed myself. I will take care of myself. I will only go with you because I know what would happen to me if I didn’t. The moment I turn 18, I shall be out of your pack and out of your life.”My father’s eyes expanded.“We are fine with that,” his selected mate responded.I didn’t even know that she was standing next to my father.Of course, they were cool with it. My father never wanted me. If my mom hadn’t phoned him, he wouldn't even know that she was sick and dying.“Selene…” my father said, but I interrupted him.“I said everything I wanted to say,” I muttered, squeezing my hands. “When are we leaving?”My father gazed at Alpha Jasper.“Tomorrow morning,” Alpha Jasper replied. “Your father and his mate will stay at the packhouse.”I nodded and turned around. I ran toward my house.I couldn't comprehend that I had to leave my house. I couldn't believe that I wouldn't be able to stay here. I didn’t want to go. I didn’t want to go.But I had to.It would be for nine months only. Nine months and I would be free. Nine months and I would never have to see my father again.Related chapters

“How are you?”Alex asked. I was lying on her twin-sized bed next to her. I should have gone home, I wanted to go home, but I could not bear the empty house. I thought I would find comfort there but when I walked into her room…so I ran over here, I ran over to my best friend. “I don't know. I feel numb.” I whispered. I had thought I would cry for hours over my mum but the tears had dried up and no matter how hard I wanted them to fall they stayed dried up. “I know you're hurting over your mom. I could never imagine what it feels like to lose your mother. But that's not what I'm talking about.” She turned over on the bed and faced me.“What are you talking about then?” I asked, genuinely confused.Alex cleared her throat and looked at me uneasily. “How do you feel now? especially after meeting your father.” She asked and watched me curiously.My anger returned swiftly and bitterness enveloped me like a thin shroud.“How could she do that?” I asked, my voice filled with bitterness.“How
My Lycan Mate Rejection Chapter 8: A New Home
I rolled down my window to get a better view of the passing vegetation. It was the most beautiful woodland I had ever seen in my entire life. My eyes flew wide open, I could hardly believe a place like this existed. Several rabbits hopped around fallen trees on the lush green forest floor. Huge trees grew so tall that it seemed they were reaching for the clouds. “It's beautiful isn't it?” My father asked. A large smile was playing on his stupid face. I could see his stupid eyes staring at me from the rearview mirror. I brought out my headphones and immersed myself in a world of heavy metal. My father was saying something but I could not hear a word of what he said. The smell of the woodland filled my soul with a peculiar energy, one I had never felt before. I longed to run through the trees, play on the grass, and hop along with the rabbits. 'Eat the rabbits.’ a voice said. I looked up at my Father but he had his eyes on the road and didn't seem to have said a word.I pulled the
My Lycan Mate Rejection Chapter 9: Strangers say the strangest things
The morning breeze had been a thing of comfort to me, its cool message of guidance and love had been mind-soothing. That man, Gabriel had returned and once again my peace was gone.“Hi.” The girl said. I was guessing this was his daughter, she had his hair and I could see a bit of him in her. Just a bit.“Hi,” I responded. She looked flushed and quickly turned her eyes away in a shy manner. I smiled to myself knowingly. It was always the same with all of them the first time they saw me.She looked up at me once again, this time her icy blue eyes bore into mine, searching, reaching into my very soul. Blood flow to my face as goosebumps erupted all over my flesh. I could not stand it any longer and quickly averted my gaze. Who was this witch?“Selene.” Gabriel’s voice echoed through the house. I was grateful to him for the intrusion as she quickly turned her gaze to him. She stared at him coldly, in the same way she had looked at my mother.“What do you want?” she growled at him. Gabri

Selene's povMy senses returned with a bang. What the hell was I doing here? My lips were interlocked in a passionate embrace with the guy who was supposed to be my new family. I withdrew my lips from him, and to my uttermost disgust, I felt myself hesitate. “Stop,” I muttered. He withdrew away away hesitantly too and stared at me with those golden eyes. I turned away as the blood flew up to my face and I blushed madly. This guy was going to think I'm some naive countryside girl.“My goodness.” He exclaimed, “I'm so sorry.” He looked as if he was drowning in his shame. Both of us were entitled to this shame. Had he no manners? To force himself on me was unacceptable. “But he didn't force himself on you. You allowed him.” A cool voice within me. The voice had been so loud I turned around to see if there were any other people inside the room.“It's ok,” I muttered while wriggling my fingers together. What would Alex think of Magnus? Yes, he was hot and her type but what would she th

Selene's pov “Hello, My flower.” The all too familiar voice said. I sat up from my bed and turned to look at the face I thought I had lost forever.“Mom?” I asked, fearing that it was not her, fearing I was imagining it all.“Yes dear, it's me. Get up, you'll be late for work.” She said and opened the door to my room. She walked inside and stood next to me. My mother was walking!! I stared at her with open eyes. Wait I was back in my room, I was back home. Confusion began to set in quickly. Why was I back here? And how was she whole and hearty? My mother had been I'll…my mother was…“Are you alright, flower?” she asked. She bent down and felt my forehead. “You don't have a fever.” “Mom,” I muttered in awe. She continued her work around me. “ Yes, darling?” She replied.I could feel something tugging at the back of my mind. I could feel someone trying to reach me. “Get up Seli, before your breakfast grows cold.” I lay on the bed and continued gaping at her.“Get up young lady.” My m
My Lycan Mate Rejection Chapter 12: Rising from the dark
Magnus’s pov.All my life I have known pain. You are not considered to be an alpha if you are a weakling. The Lycan gene is poison to those who cannot wield its power, it corrupts you, weakens you more because you need strength to fight, and if you have no strength for the fight you are beaten. Pain has been my friend for a long time for I am an ancient, I am feral, I am one with nature. The pain that seared through my entire body was not something I was familiar with though. Tears threatened to escape my eyes as Selene pressed down on the wound with a piece of her cloth and a mixture of herbs.“Hmmm.” I groaned. The tears were now close, I bit down hard on my lips to stop myself from screaming.“Please, stay still.” Selene pleaded. Her icy blue eyes were filled with fear and concern. She wrapped the cloth around the wound in a bid to stop the bleeding. I watched her hands as she walked quickly but her face soon called to me and the memory of the moment we had shared. No, now was not
My Lycan Mate Rejection Chapter 13:Trouble at home
Gabriel's pov“Stupid, stupid stupid!!” I yelled while kicking at the bucket in front of me. What was wrong with me, why do I always mess things up?“We'll find her,” Mira said. She placed a hand on my shoulder and squeezed. I turned to her and despite my fear and anger, I forced a smile for her. It was nice seeing her show concern over the matter. The both of us had caused this and it was our responsibility to bring Selene back home. “We don't even need to find her,” Mira added to my disappointment. I should have known she couldn't think of anybody other than herself.“Why would you say that,” I asked angrily. Mira rolled her eyes and walked away to the living room.“It wasn't our fault. Why did she have to come spying on us? I wonder what kind of mother she must have had.” She said the last set of words with an air of disdain.I turned to her and stared at her, uncertain of what I had heard.“What did you just say?” I growled as I advanced towards her with slow steps.“Your daught
My Lycan Mate Rejection Chapter 14: Strength in memories
Selene's povFor the first time since I met him, I was seeing my father. Sure I have looked at him before, and stared at him a few times too but I have never really seen him, or acknowledged him. But there he stood, with a piece of iron sticking out of his leg, blood dripping from his lips, his body a battered mess, all caused by the mother of the man he was going to rescue so selflessly.I nodded to him and he nodded back at me. He grimaced a little and turned to Mira. “Do you still want to stand here fighting, when your son is out there wounded?”“LIES!!!” Mira screamed madly. “It's a lie.”“You're doing whatever you can to escape my wrath! Bunch of spineless cunts, that's what you are!” She looked at me but I could no longer see anger in her eyes. His furry chest heaved with breath and I could see tears at the edge of her eyelids. She wanted it to be a lie.“There's no time for this!” I cried, “Magnus is hurt and I fear other demons are still out there!”“Shut up!!” She yelled a

Selene's povTake off your clothes." He said, to my outermost Surprise. I turned around sharply to him, "What?" I asked."Take off the clothes, we need to burn them. The guards have our scents." He explained. He was already in his briefs."Oh," I exclaimed. It made more sense now he explained himself.My hand went to the black shirt, and I was about to take it off when I noticed his eyes on my body. I instantly blushed and turned my face away. His constant staring made me super uncomfortable."Do you mind?" I asked shyly. He looked at me dumbfounded, like he just discovered I existed."What?" He asked, confused."I’m taking the clothes off." I explained."Ohhh." He said and turned away. "I'll be downstairs when you're done.” He said, closing the door behind him as he walked away. The room was suddenly quiet, but I was grateful for it. I took the shirt off gingerly; my ribs hurt me like hell. I walked to the mirror and stood in front of the mirror; I traced my hand through my skin, tr
My Lycan Mate Rejection Chapter 100:Hello from an old enemy
Gabriel's povI stared in awe as the army of wolves of every single pack in Western America rushed down the hills of Moonstone in all of their terrifying power. The moon was not out, and all I could witness was them in their normal human states, but even that brought joy to my eyes.The monsters looked at one another in confusion. The army that Saltos had called forth was one terrifying number, but they were scattered across the battlefield without accurate coordination."Form your lines!" Saltos's voice boomed angrily. He had lost all of his former coordination as desperation began." Form your lines, you bloody idiots."But it was already too late for that. Mira got to her feet and slit the throat of the login that was next to her. The other wolves of our pack saw what she did, and one by one, they picked up their swords and began to press the enemy."Fight back, you idiots!" their leader cried. "stand and fight!" a large goblin turned on his heels and began to run."No, no, no, no,"
My Lycan Mate Rejection Chapter 99:Bad welcome package
Ansari's povI looked up at the figure that hovered over the town In wonder. Was that the child that I had condemned to death out of fear of who she was?Of who she represented?"Mom!!" Magnus cried as he sighted his mother."Magnus!!" Mira yelled, and I turned just in time to see mother and child run to each other. They locked in a firm embrace as the formally strung and formidable Mira sank to her knees in tears."I thought we had lost you." She cried. "I'm sorry mom." "Why didn't you call? It's been two weeks. We thought you were dead.""I can explain everything.” He said with a smile. My daughter's face radiated with joy.I looked around for Gabriel, but he was nowhere to be seen.My mind raced to conclusions as I feared the worst. Now was not the time for news like this. If Gabriel were dead, it would shatter Mira and the little strength she had left."Where's Gabriel?" I heard her ask. I turned around to see the look on Magnus's face as he delivered the news I expected to hear
My Lycan Mate Rejection Chapter 98:They match in
Ansari's povYou alright?" I paid no heed to the man as I ran down the corridor.A hand grabbed mine, and I was flung into someone's chest."Shhhh." The baritone voice said. I knew that voice. I looked up to see Conner looking down at me. "Let me go." I whispered."No." He whispered back. Conner was the only person who knew what I had become, the only one who saw the true me. I loved him so much and still did, but he could never."Please let me go." I cried."I have loved you, and this won't ever change things. Never." He pulled his collar away from his neck and looked down at me, "if you being this way would keep you away from me then… make me one too.""You don't know what you're talking about." I said."I do it because I love you."…. Slashed and hacked and cut through every single one of them as if they were made of paper. Blood flew up in the air along with their marked organs and veins. In the end, I stood there in the middle of the room, with pieces Of their bodies lying all

Gabriel's povMy legs hurt, and the distant feeling of vomit sitting at the back of my throat like some final boss was not helping me on this trek. It has been a good two days since we arrived in Iceland, and the entire company was utterly exhausted. I could not vouch for anyone, but I could bet that I was the most exhausted one out of the three of us. From time to time, I remember when there were four of us. An extra one that had been my responsibility to care for, one I had allowed to be corrupted and destroyed."It's beautiful here," Selene remarked. I looked around at the scenery here. I left Iceland long ago, but even in my memories, it had been a place of extraordinary beauty. It was a good thing that it had not changed. "Yes, it truly is," I replied. It was hard not to fall asleep while driving, but Magnus was terrible. Selene was entirely out of the question. Completely."So this is Akur…""Akureyri." I helped. She rolled her eyes and nodded."Roll off the tip of your tongu
My Lycan Mate Rejection Chapter 96:I finally awaken
Selene's pov."What news?" I asked."Saltos opened a portal to our side.""To moonstone?" I asked, fear spear diving through every cell I had in me. Magnus shook his head. "No, but he took the guardians of the most powerful weapon known to our kind. It was one he had used when he was still of this world, before he was banished. It was taken away from moonstone immediately he was released but he found it and massacred and entire pack just to get it. He has it all now, all that remains is to lay waste to everything we hold dear. My mother, my grandmother, my pack and yours."His words were like a knife to my heart, and I was suddenly lightheaded. I collapsed, but he caught me deftly and pulled me back to my feet. "No." I whispered in disbelief."It is the truth child." My father said sadly."You are the only hope we have of beating him," Olivia said.Her words hurt me more than every other person's."Of beating salts?" I asked, "You saw what happened the last time? I couldn't even t
My Lycan Mate Rejection Chapter 95: It was a crazy escape three weeks ago.
Selene's pov.It has not always been easy; I have had many jobs and menial work to get what the other kids could afford. My mother's health did not make things much better, and I had to do the best for both of us, but it never bothered me one bit. But I never complained, I never felt like I was missing out, and all I ever did was love those around me.So why me? Why was the world so ready to destroy me?To hate me.“It's empty." I said. “It's all empty.""This doesn't make sense," Darius muttered.“Where's the prophecy?" I asked Darius. He was busy staring at a blank page of the paper. Panic was beginning to set in my mind, and I could not deal with him panicking.I grabbed him by the shoulders and shook him. “Darius!! Why are they empty?"He turned to me with confused eyes. "I don't- I don't know." He scratched his head and returned to study the blank pages. What the hell did he mean by that? He picked the book; he had to know."Did you maybe pick the wrong book?" I asked desperat
My Lycan Mate Rejection Chapter 94:Shaken
Darius's pov.I turned off my phone and looked up at the road before me. So that was the girl? That was Selene.I had never had a girlfriend before; I was always too shy to approach anyone, but this girl, this chick, was something else. Where do you even get eyes like that from?A sigh left my lips, fucking hell, I was tired. I looked at the town around me. It had not changed that much since I left. The same people's houses and I was sure they all still had the same ideology.They tried to act the same way in situations that needed to be solved with modern ideologies.A group of kids were playing soccer on a field, and one of them looked up and saw me.He smiled and waved at me. I smiled and waved back.At least they were not so shy anymore; that was good."Hey!!" A feminine voice called. I turned around to see a slim figure running towards me. It was Selene. My heart skipped a beat within me. She was a different specimen. My God!"Hey." She panted and rested her palms on her knees
My Lycan Mate Rejection Chapter 93:Little did I Know
Selene's povGoddess, have mercy!" my father cried in fear as he held on for dear life"Selene, stop this madness!" Magnus said frantically as he held me while staring at the wall of thunder and lightning before us.Now, he chooses to talk. I was in no mood to speak, not anymore."We'll tell you what's in the fucking boot just stop this." My father yelled as the car came a foot closer to the wall of charged electricity. Millions of nerve endings and necrotic cells interconnect the brain. A single thought you make is passed on like bolts of electricity through the brain as it processes it in under a second. That was how long I had to call off the lightning storm before us—less than a freaking second."Fucking hell, your child is crazy," Olivia screamed. Everyone breathed relief, and Olivia stepped out of the vehicle and doubled down on her knees as she took heavy breaths."Are you mad? Do you want to kill us?" My father screamed at me. I wasn't trying to kill them. I knew they would t
