"Lexie! Lexie!! Get up! Get up, I woke you up earlier too but you didn't get up and it is already late now! And are you okay, you are drenched with sweat?"

Katrine woke me up by shaking my arms, blurting out everything in a single breath. I woke up with a jerk while panting heavily, but managed to assure her, "Yeah, yeah…I am okay."

Katrine nodded and turned her attention to the book rack, and It took a few minutes to actually calm my heart down. I exclaimed, "Thank the Moon Goddess, it was just a dream."

Thankfully, Katrine could not hear what I was saying, as she was busy preparing for school. I got down from the bed as soon as I realised that I needed to do the same thing, I had too little time left.

I started to get ready, splashing my face with water, hoping to wash away the glimpses in my mind that had been left over from the dream- images of Nate's taunting snicker, images of my fourteen year old self shaking and sobbing, images of me being attacked by the beast…

  • Scar : the rejected Luna   13. Possessive

    After I had submitted the application, the results were announced after a few days of waiting anxiously. The categories had been made for all the applicants, keeping in mind their initial capabilities and status, and it was according to these categories that we were supposed to start the training. Being a former rogue, I knew I would be put in the lowest rank for the training group, and that was exactly what the chart in front of me declared. I was elbowed out of the way by other students eager to check their own names and categories, but I walked towards the ground, still content.I was happy that even though all the former rogues and the weak wolves had been clubbed in the lowest category, at least we were being given a chance to learn to fight and defend ourselves- if not the entire pack. Because even though everyone knew that we had never been fully accepted as rightful and worthy pack members and the stain of having been a rogue would always follow us around as a shadow, our cond

  • Scar : the rejected Luna   14. Run-in

    After what happened last night, I was really not in the mood to do anything or go anywhere. But I had to, as I couldn't take off from the school as well as training, and neither could I indulge in this impulse of mine, to stay in the safety of my bed all day. Ignoring the nagging feeling in my gut, I managed to drag myself to the school and made it through the first half of the classes, but I didn't talk to anyone. And for that, I was in luck today that Kevin was not present today.So I headed towards the canteen to have my lunch, and deliberately sat on a totally deserted corner of the school behind the old canteen, so that I did not have to interact with anyone; and also so that no one could find me for at least some time. There were too many things on my mind that I needed to clear from there.But as I finished my lunch and was about to return to my class, seeing that it was almost time for the break to get over, three people suddenly appeared out of nowhere and stood in front of

    Paul's POV:I don't know why I was feeling so irritable today- if whatever I had done yesterday wasn't right, then it wasn't wrong as well.After all, she was my mate and I had tried to convince her too many times, but she found it so easy to not give a single shred of attention to it. I had been willing to wait for her till she was ready, but when I saw her talking with that rogue yesterday, I didn't know what came over me, and I did that…probably to gain her attention, or to make her realise how serious I was regarding my proposal, that I meant it every single time I asked her to give me a chance."She also should try to understand my point of view, but no! She has to be angry with me to the extent where I haven't even seen her once since then!"I was busy in my one sided monologue, without realising that I had even started speaking out loud, when I heard someone knock the door. I was already in a highly irritable state because of this cold war situation, but I still had to look af

    Although Paul had brought me to safety, because of my earlier injuries due to being bitten by the wild beast, my healing powers that had been inherent to my werewolf nature had become too weak. As a result, my body was showing the symptoms of that trauma, by not recovering in time. Paul had to find a good doctor for me, realising that I could not heal until the wounds were tended to. He had to contact the main healer of the pack, who rarely used to treat patients these days after his retirement; but because it was an Alpha's call, he couldn't simply deny it, and had arrived for a check-up. He had left after checking my wounds and prescribing plenty of medicines for quick recovery, herbs for pain relief, and precautions for me. I found out all this from the mouth of a girl who had been appointed as my attendant for the time being, as I had still been unconscious after Paul had brought me here. I woke up two hours after the main healer had left, and found myself in a strange room. T

    "Hear ye! Hear ye!!" Luke, the twelve year old kid from the neighbourhood screamed dramatically as he came rushing into our house and stopped abruptly when his eyes greeted the sight of dear old me.I had been standing in front of my wardrobe, arranging my clothes when I heard his voice and went out to the hallway, being the only one in the house.I felt the boy's eyes roaming my face before he saw that I was looking at him, and he immediately fixed his eyes on the floor."Is no one else at home- I mean, sister Lexie, where is brother Dylan? Or Katrine?"I smiled at his efforts at covering up his uneasiness and replied, making my voice as soft as possible. "They are not at home right now, but you can tell me. What is it?"Luke seemed to consider this for a moment before he hurriedly blurted out."Alpha- alpha Paul has invited everyone to the party tonight, because he is searching for his mate!"Luke had barely finished his sentence before he dashed off in a hurry, leaving me with his

    After geometry class got over, I packed up my things and left the room for the next lecture. But before I could have left the room, someone called out my name from the back of the classroom. "Lexie, you left your earphones behind!" As I turned around to see what the matter was, my shoulder bumped into someone coming in from the doorway. I could only see a flash of blonde hair before I stumbled backwards from the force of the collision and stabilised myself against a desk. "Watch where you are going! Or has that scar made you lose your vision in the second eye too?!" I didn't even need to pull down my hood to see that the person my bad luck had made me collide with, was none other than Abby. "I'm sorry, I wasn't paying attention…" I mumbled an apology for the sake of the friendship Abby and I used to share, back when we were just kids who played together. I knew her from my days in the Celene pack, where we both had been brought up in the same neighbourhood. She was the

  • Scar : the rejected Luna   3. Unwanted

    Although it had been two years since we had joined this pack and in the meantime, we had also established good relations with most of the native people in our neighborhood. But still, the blot of being 'Rogues'- unwanted outsiders- was still visible on our foreheads, and the last thing I wanted was to get into an argument that would confirm such people's prejudices against our family. Micheal had been trying so hard for all three of our sakes, and I commanded myself to take deep breaths so I would not end up spoiling this for all of us. Thankfully, I felt Jean's pat on my shoulder right on time. She was the one who had called out my name a few minutes ago, and her intervention was a good enough excuse for me to divert my attention. She handed me my earphones and nudged me towards the exit. But before leaving the classroom, I arranged my features into the most deadpan expression I could manage and made my voice cloyingly sweet, giving my reply seconds before putting my earphones in my

    "Got it.”I nodded in affirmation before I gulped down my own saliva in an attempt to hide my nervousness. Trying to compose myself, I glanced at the facade of the imposing archway under which the two of us were standing. It was made completely with a black stone, in the centre of which, a large exploding sun had been carved. The rays of that sun extended in all directions, and the two sides were flanked with beautiful depictions of every life form that owed its existence to the presence of the sun, all the way down to where the two pillars ended. If it had not been carved on a black stone, one could easily have been fooled by the intricate details, judging by how realistic it all seemed. Indeed, it was quite fitting that the Apollo pack would appreciate the gifts that the Sun had provided to earth; thinking this, I extended a hand to touch one of the lotus flowers carved on the right pillar, before I returned to my senses and promptly pulled my hand backwards.

    "Lexie! How can you think that you will ever be my mate!? I don't want any mate and especially not you, so it will be better if you leave as soon as possible, and before I call the guards to take you out of these premises.""But...but Nate…what are you saying…! What happened to you…have I done something wrong? Has someone said something to you, please tell me…don't just throw me out of your life like this, don't…""Don't be a fool, Lexie! I told you what I had to tell you; now get out of my way and don't ever show me this face of yours ever again.""Nate…Nate please…stop, how can you change like this? Please stop…"I was screaming, crying and begging Nate to stop; but it was of no use at all. He did not listen to a word I said. Instead, as soon as he signalled, two guards appeared, saying that I needed to leave or else they would just throw me out, and Nate walked out while leaving me crumpled on the floor, ready to dissolve into tears.My heart was breaking into pieces because of the

  • Scar : the rejected Luna   10. Good Night

    Before I knew it, I had gotten comfortable in the setting by talking about topics of my daily life- home and school. The dinner came to an end before any of us realised it. Glancing at the clock mounted on a wall nearby, I panicked once again as I saw the time, and imagined the state my family must be in.Ridden with guilt, I stood up from the table with my hand reaching for my bag, but Paul intercepted my movement and held my hand by the wrist. In return for my questioning glance, he explained, "I have sent word to your family, about you being here in the afternoon itself. So don't be worried, you can leave a little later."While I managed to smile for the sake of the company we were in, his words had left me in even panic. Although my family should be relaxed about my whereabouts now, they were probably linking up the scenarios and considering the possibilities of me accepting the role of Alpha's mate. 'I know that they will not assume anything for sure until I have confirmed it, a

    My eyes fluttered open and I found myself in a completely new place with an unfamiliar setting. I sat up on the bed with a jerk, and it took me a few moments to realise that I was at Paul's house, and had ended up sleeping after taking a shower.Once I had calmed myself down, I checked the time and freaked out for the second time, seeing that it had gotten quite late today as well. ‘I know that Micheal has never asked me anything about me staying out for any amount of time I want, or doesn't even question my actions. They always say that they trust me so dearly, but I also know that even though they don't say or show anything regarding me being out late, yet they remain concerned and fearful about my safety.’ So I decided to change, pack up and leave Paul's house as soon as possible, and was in the middle of the same thing, before I encountered the cutest fluff ball of this house- Andy. He had appeared in the hallway in front of me, seemingly out of nowhere, bouncing with excitement

    That hand gave my shoulder a soft squeeze before letting go. Even before the gesture, that person's scant was able to make me calm to some degree… but who could it be?My thoughts got an answer when Paul's voice came from somewhere close to me;"Lexie, listen! Calm down and let her go, listen to me, I said calm down and let her go!!"A few moments later, I noticed that I had actually left her neck and given her the space to run away from my sight. And this was exactly what she did as she ran away, coughing and trying to grasp as much air as she could in every breath.Although I knew why Paul had done this- first and foremost, he was the Alpha of the pack, he had to make sure about the safety of every pack member; but this act of his left me seething with unspent anger. The moment Abby left our sight, he lifted his hand from my shoulder and I turned back to face him.
