~Amara~"Nico is our mate, let's go to him! He's ours, Amara. We have finally found our destined mate, our gift from the moon goddess. Isn't that what you have been waiting for?"My wolf said, just confirming my nightmare.I could hear the excitement in Isabella's voice. My wolf was happy that we had finally found our fated mate few minutes after our first shift. I could tell that she was dying to meet him and hold him in her arms and those were my dreams too.Indeed it was true that when you have a wolf,he/she thinks the same way that you think and feel how you feel deep down."Amara, are you okay?"I heard my dad's voice inside my head.I guess he realised that I was in trance,he was worried about me. I turned my wolf's head to look at my father, turned around then ran in the woods.I couldn't believe that indeed Nicholas was my fated mate. It took me by surprise. We have been living under the same roof for the past three months but…I never knew that he would turn out to be my fated.I
~Amara~My father was stiff at first because he wasn't expecting it.However, he relaxed then hugged me back tightly and patted my back to help me calm down. Instead of calming down, I cried even more because I couldn't help it. I just wanted to let out the pain I was feeling deep inside my heart and the best way was to cry it off in my Dad's arms."What is wrong?"My father looked at me with gentle eyes as he asked the question and I took a deep breath to compose myself.I know he could tell that something was off and that was why he asked My Dad knows me better that anyone else.He knows when I'm happy,sad or disturbed with something because he has been watching over me for the past ten years."I'm just happy."I lied, looking into his eyes because I had nothing else to say. How was I supposed to explain to my father that I was crying because I was heartbroken when I found out that my mate is Nicholas?My Step-brother?My dad and I sat at my study table on the chair inside my room and I
~Amara~I woke to the annoying sound of an alarm, reminding me that it was morning and I needed to go to campus.I lazily got out of the bed and headed to the bathroom to take a shower.When I was done in the bathroom, I changed then picked up my bag and headed downstairs to prepare myself a cup of coffee to start my day and help me with the headache.I know my head was pounding because of the previous day's realisations.I spent the whole night thinking about it but nothing made sense to me.I walked to the coffee maker and got myself busy preparing the coffee.My senses became more alert when I felt someone behind me.His musk scent hit my nostrils and it awakened the fire inside me.I wanted to throw myself at him and inhale the scent deep in my lungs.I felt my canines elongate and I couldn't help but ran my tongue over it to soothe the itching or else I would pounce at him and sink them so deep in the flesh on his neck and claim him.The need to be close to him was driving me insane.Howe
~Nicholas~"You're finally back home son!"My mother said happily when I entered the mansion and I gave her a weak smile.I could tell that she worried about me but when she laid her eyes on me, she looked so relaxed. I was tired from the massive training back on campus.I didn't want our basketball team to lose the tournament like what happened the last time we played with St Louis campus. Even though I didn't want to admit it, it hurt me so much when our team lost the tournament.My mother hugged me so tightly and I hugged her back. It felt so warm to come home, it felt even more good when my mother welcomed me with a hug.I liked it here in Silver Pack, Amara's pack. The place looked so beautiful and it was peaceful, away from the busy city where Mother and I were staying while she worked in a bakery.Now I didn't need to worry that much about our house bills and go to work for extra hours after campus to help Mom pay the bills.Each day I woke up and saw a smile on my mom's face. I
~Nicholas~I felt a heartache when I was done reading those words. It felt like someone had buried a two-edged silver dagger deep in my chest and it was becoming hard for me to breathe."So Amara is my fated mate and she just rejected me?"I couldn't wrap my head around the new realisation.It now makes sense why I have been attracted to Amara since the first time I looked into those bright blue eyes when I moved into her campus.Now it made sense why I never wanted Luke to be around Amara or wrap his hand around her shoulders whenever they joked around."Why Leon? Why didn't you smell Amara? Why didn't you tell me that Amara is our mate?"I asked my wolf and he howled in my head."I couldn't smell her scent," Leon told me and I was more angry at my wolf. What was the importance of having a wolf when I failed to find my mate?Now it made sense why I stayed away from Amara so that she couldn't be influenced by my bad behaviour. It makes sense why I was so scared that day at the party when
~Amara~I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. I wasn't expecting it to turn out this way. I never imagined that Nicholas would want us to talk about something that I had already written on the piece of paper and he had read it.I thought that he would finally be happy because he is free from the mate bonds that tied us to one another.I thought that Nicholas would be happy that he had found the freedom that he had been craving for. I thought that he would feel free to be with anyone and fuck any girl that he wanted.I took another deep breath and looked into Nicholas's eyes."I didn't tell you because I was running away from you Nico!" I said and tears flowed from my eyes. The tears that I had been holding since I wrote him a Rejection note.It took me a lot of energy to write those few words. My heart ached with each letter and my hand trembled because I couldn't find it in my heart to write the words.But I'm glad I did."Do you hate that I'm your mate, Amara? Are you disappointed
~Amara~A groan of frustration left my lips when the annoying alarm pierced through the peaceful air, reminding me that I had to wake up and go to campus.I had just fell asleep a few hours ago.I cried myself to sleep after the confrontation with Nicholas.He tried to reach me through the mind-link but I blocked him immediately when I head his voice in my head.I was annoyed about everything! It was not like the old days when all I wanted was for Nico to speak to me so that I could listen to his voice. It was not like the old days when I wanted him to look my way so that I could look into those green alluring eyes.It was the exact opposite now. I didn't want to hear Nico's voice because it caused me an heart ache. His face reminded me of all the things that he has been doing. When I looked at those pink lips of his, it reminded me of all those times that I had watched him kiss Sandra while grabbing her arse.I closed my eyes and a deep sigh escaped my lips.I brushed the dark hair stran
~Amara~"What do you want us to talk about after everything that you did to me at the party,Nomani!"I asked through gritted teeth, raising my voice which made students around us look at me with raised eyebrows."How do you expect me to trust you, huh?"I asked and he was quiet, bowing his head in shame because he knew whatever I was saying was the damn truth.It was hard to trust someone especially if he/she did something awful like what he did to me in the not long ago. He fucking drugged me and he expected me to forget about it that easily?I think he had just healed from the beating which Nicholas gave him. I could tell he was human because I couldn't detect his wolf. It took him three damn weeks to heal, there is no doubt about it."Please listen to me…"He said, pleading. I looked him in the eyes because I didn't trust him even a little bit.I was cautious about him and I wanted to know if he was sincere.Heaving a deep sigh, I nodded to him."I'm giving you one minute to talk and sa
