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
ANYAShe immediately shook her head when I said this. Of course, she did not want to go back. "So, don't worry about it. Just focus on your school since that is what you want to do!" I said. "Are you sure they are both going to be fine?" She asked me. "Yes. I am sure!" I said. I looked outside. "Do you want me to walk you back to your class?" I asked her. She looked outside thoughtfully. Then she shook her head in the negative. "No. So many things happened today. I think I am just going to go back to my room to sleep!" She said to me. I looked at her suspiciously. Her conversation with her friends when I got there flashed past my mind. I could pick up that they were talking about someone called Angela. Was there someone giving her trouble in school?"Is there someone giving you trouble in school?" I asked her. Anya looked at me with shock in her eyes. But then she shook her head immediately. "No, there's no one giving me trouble. Why would you think that?" She asked me. "A
ABELI blinked my eyes in shock when I heard this from Kern. "What did you say?" I asked him in shock. "I said I am going to transfer to Anya's school. I need to get back to college anyway. I have been away from school for too long. I need to get back to school anyway I will just go to hers!" he said. "But why do you need to go to her school? You can go back to your old college!" I said. I didn't want Kern in the same school as Anya. I already had a lot of competition with Andrei when it came to Anya. He was her first mate after all. I didn't want Kern jumping in on that. If he went to the same school with her, he'd be spending a lot of time with her. I didn't want that to happen. I wanted him as far away from her as possible. "I think Anya may be getting bullied in school. I overheard her and her friend talking about someone. She told me it was nothing but I don't believe it. You know Anya, she won't say anything if anyone is actually picking on her. She's going to keep it to
ANYAI was lying on the bed when the door was pushed open, and Lydia entered the room. "You're back?" She asked me in shock. "Yeah. I've been back for some time. So many times have happened today, and I didn't want to have to deal with Angela anymore for today, so I decided to avoid classes!" I said to her. "Oh," Lydia said with a disappointed look on her face. "I thought you would spend the entire day with him!" She said. "Spend the entire day with who?" "Who else? Of course the guy who came to see you! Isn't his name Kern? You didn't come back to classes, so I just assumed you were with him," Lydia said. I shook my head at her. "You really need to stop overthinking," I said to her. "I am not the one who's overthinking. You, on the other hand, are the one who seems to be surrounded by so many handsome men wherever you go. We aren't even done talking about Derrick, who's definitely into you, yet there's this hot guy Kern! How do you do it? You need to give me some tips!" She s
ANYA"Tell me the truth Anya, do you really not like anyone at all? Two very attractive men are clearly into you. Don't tell me that you don't feel anything when you see thier faces?" Lydia asked me. Two people flashed past my head when she asked me this. One of them was Abel. I really did like him. Unfortunately, we may never be together...the other was Andrei. I could not explain it, but I found myself thinking about him more and more. I could not stand the way he had treated me, but I could not get him out of my mind completely either. It had to be because of my wolf. Since I was still mated to him, I felt things for him. "What are you thinking about Anya? Don't tell me.... you're not into men, right? There's no way you'd be able to remain unmoved with two outstanding men interested in you. It must be because you don't like men! Don't worry, I won't judge you. There are so many people around like that day. You can accept your sexuality!" She said to me. I glared at Lydia when
ANYAAs soon as I opened the door, our eyes met. She had tears in her eyes but she immediately wiped it when she saw me. "What are you doing here? Don't tell me you're here to eavesdrop on me. What is wrong with you? Why can't you leave me alone? You are even following me into the bathroom now. Why? Is it because you want to prove that you're better than me? You want to prove that you've won?" Angela asked me as she glared at me. I rolled my eyes at her assumptions. All of the pity I felt for her when I saw her crying immediately left me. There was no need to feel sorry for someone like Angela, who would never acknowledge that she had done anything wrong and would instead look for ways to push the blame on someone else. "The last time I checked, you don't own the restrooms. I am here because I wanted to use the restroom. I don't care about you at all. And I don't think about you as much as you think of me!" I said to her. "What exactly did you hear?" She asked me. "What? Do you w
