ANYAAngela looked over at me, probably waiting for me to say something, but I didn't say anything to her. She finally huffed and looked away from me. "Some people are just so shameless. I'd have killed myself if I was here!" She said. I frowned. Even though I said I didn't want to react to her taunts, her words got under my skin. Did she hate me that much? Wasn't it just some school competition? Did she have to take it seriously?! Before I could say anything, though, Lydia had already beat me to it. "I think you're the shameless one who should have already killed yourself! Who do you think you are to talk to her like that?! You are so shameless, Angela! What did she do to you? Isn't it just because she's smarter than you? If you're so mad that she's smarter than you, then you should work hard instead of doing things like this! Anyway, you know that you won't be able to beat her no matter how hard you work, so you resort to doing things like this! You're just so shameless I can't
ANDREI"It doesn't even matter because you won't be the Alpha for much longer. You know, if you had treated me my daughter right, if you hadn't just used her body when you wanted and thrown her away, I wouldn't have done this. With my daughter as your Luna, there are so many things we could have done together. We could have led this pack to a greater height together but you did not treat my daughter right! You hurt her when all that she had ever done was fall in love with you!" Elder John said. "What you are trying to do is control my brother! Do you really think you'd be able to control him with your daughter? My brother is the Alpha, and he's the one who gets to choose who can be his Luna! Do you really think your daughter is good enough to be a Luna? She's so stupid and annoying. If she wasn't your daughter, she would have been beaten to death a long time ago because of her arrogance!" Abel said. I wasn't surprised to hear this coming from him at all. He really hated Ariana and
ANYA"And why are you speaking up for her? Does she not have a mouth? She can't talk for herself and so she needs someone to speak up for her? Don't tell me that you've become one of the people who are willing to suck up to her and do whatever she wants, Derrick?" Angela asked Derrick maliciously. She threw me a death glare when she said this. I frowned. There was a way she looked at Derrick....I thought it was odd. I didn't dwell on it though. It had nothing to do with me. Derrick looked Angela straight in the eye. "I am not trying to stand up for anyone. I just find you annoying. You think you can do whatever you want and get away with it because of your father's influence. You think that you're so amazing but really Angela, no one would want to have anything to do with a horrible person like you if it wasn't for your father! Everyone else finds you annoying!" Derrick said to her. Angela took a few steps back when she heard this. She looked as if someone just slapped her across
ANYALydia had a happy smile on her face when Derrick said this. "Yes, Derrick. Angela really needs to be put in her place, or else she will think that she can walk all over everyone. I have told Anya this over and over again but she refuses to listen to me. It's not like it's her fault that she's better at studying than her. Why does she have to take out her anger on Anya?" Lydia asked Derrick. Derrick smiled. "she has always been like that. She's always been very competitive. When she sees someone who's better than her, she tries to do everything to prove that she's better than that person. She's been like that since she was young and almost everyone ends up giving in to her. It's a good thing you refuse to let her walk all over you," Derrick said.I frowned at this. "Have you known her for a long time?" I asked Derrick. Derrick nodded his head. "Yes. Our families are close, and we grew up together. So I guess you can say I've known her for my whole life? I know that her parents
ANYA"And what exactly have you done?" Kern asked me. I sighed. "Do you really need me to spell it out for you?" I asked. "Yes because I don't understand. I don't understand why you're blaming yourself when you're the most affected one. You didn't do anything so why is it your fault?" He asked me. "It's my fault because I was the one who broke you guys up! I was the one who caused three of you to grow apart from each other! It's all my fault. You were all close Brothers before I showed up but immediately I did, it all went south. You and Abel used to get along with Andrei so well. So much that you told him everything. I know that you've always had each other's back since your parents died but immediately I showed up, it all changed. You don't talk to each other anymore and it's just like....I don't even know how to explain it at all! It's all my fault! Maybe if I had not shown up, then it wouldn't be like this!" I said. "Don't blame yourself for what you have no control over! You
ANDREII looked at the faces of all the Elders who were kneeling on the ground and begging. I didn't feel sorry for any of them because I knew that they deserved it. "Don't push all the blame on Elder John. He may have been the one who started it, but all of you went along with it. You also wanted me gone because you never accepted me as the Alpha. You thought I was too young and you didn't want to be under the command of a wolf you considered younger and weaker than you!" I said. When horrific looks flashed past their faces, I knew that I had told the truth. I had always known that the Elders were dissatisfied with me. They never thought I was good enough to lead them because I was really young when I became the Alpha. My dad had just died, and I was barely sixteen. All of them were waiting for me to make a mistake so they could kick me out, but I never made a mistake. They all forgot I was no longer the young kid I was back then. "No, Your Highness. We never thought that you we
ANDREI I looked at Abel. He could not be serious right now. Was he really asking about Anya? With that look in his eyes? Did he not care about the fact that she was my mate? "What did you say?" I asked him "I asked him if Kern found Anya yet? Did he contact you?" He asked me again. There was no guilt on his face. "You do realize she's my mate Right? Why do you want to know about my mate?!" I asked him rudely. "Don't pretend as if you don't know what's going on Andrei. It's just old. She's also my mate too. She already admitted she could feel the mate bond between us. Besides, you have never cared about her and you've never treated her as your mate before. Why do you suddenly care about her now?" Abel asked me. I lost my temper at this. "who said I never cared about her? She's my mate so of course I do care about her!" I said. "But you never showed her that you cared! You acted as if she was your enemy! Even if you don't want her as your mate, you
KERNI made sure to look at Anya's face as I said this. I wanted her to think I was telling the truth. But the truth was, I didn't think that I'd ever be able to get over my feelings for her..I did love her. It hurt me to see her with Abel, knowing that she'd love him as much as he loved her and that I'd never be the one getting those feelings from her. I didn't think the pain would ever get better or that I'd ever get over it. I couldn't turn my feelings for her off and on the way I wanted anyway. I just felt that I would have gotten better at hiding in front of her. But I did not want her to know any of that. I just wanted her not to be burdened by the feelings I had for her. "Is that so?" Anya finally asked me. There was some skepticism in her eyes but at least she did not call me out for lying immediately. "Of course. I think...I am going to get over it soon. The friendship I have with you matters more to me than anything else. I will not throw it away for anything else in t
