I had tried everything I could think of to convince her to accept our mate bond, but it seemed like nothing was working.I had even gone as far as to pamper her, hoping that it would soften her heart towards me, but it seemed like that was a futile effort.

Calla’s POVThe sun had fully set, and darkness took over from there. Only the lights from streetlights cut through its thick blanket, I stood by the side of the road, waiting for a cab to drive by.I stood there for about 10 minutes but there was no sign of any vehicle coming my way. Most of the people that were in the park came with their cars, and the rest that did not drive moved on their feet to their destination.I saw no need waiting so I joined the others who were going in my direction. I will turn back occasionally to see if a cab is coming.One by one, our group number began to dwindle as people diverted to other roads, at crossroads or their houses not too far from the main road.At the end, I was the only one left and fear began to creep into me.

I called out weakly. "What happened?"A maid rushed to my bedside, a concerned expression on her face. "You're in the private clinic of the pack mansion, Miss Calla," she said. "You were brought here three days ago by Alpha Lucian."My eyes widened in surprise. Three days? I couldn't believe that I had been out for so long. I tried to recall what had happened, but my mind was foggy."Lucian?" I repeated, confused. "What about him?""He's been here every day since you arrived," the maid said with a smile. "He's been very worried about you."As if on cue, Lucian walked into the room, holding the big teddy bear that I had won at the amusement park. I smiled

Lucian’s POVI watched as Calla stormed out of my study room in anger, her words still ringing in my ears. She had pricked my pride by refusing to answer my questions about Axel, and her statement about never being my mate had only served to fuel my anger further. How dare she speak to me like that?I tried to convince myself that I didn't care about her opinion, that I didn't want her as my mate anyway, but the truth was that her words stung. I couldn't shake the feeling that I had somehow offended her, but I couldn't bring myself to apologize. My cold exterior was all I had to protect myself from the pain of rejection.As I sat there alone in my study, I couldn't help but wonder why I felt so strongly about Calla.

Lucian's POV"I still don't get you, Lucian," Calla's face furrowed, her eyes obviously searching my face for answers. "What are you apologizing for?"She needed answers, I had them but how to put them was the problem. I had no straight reason for apologizing but I did it anyway."Can we take a walk?" I diverted from the main issue at hand to another. "If you don't mind."Calla only shrugged her shoulders and began to move together with me.As we walked through the large garden of the mansion house, I couldn't help but notice how beautiful it was. The flowers were in full bloom, and the trees provided ample shade from the bright sun. Calla seemed to be enjoying the scenery as well, as her face lit up with every new flower we passed."I love this garden," she said, her voice filled with wonder. "It's so peaceful here."I smiled at her, happy to see her enjoying herself. "I'm glad you like it," I replied.We continued to walk in silence for a few moments, just enjoying the beauty aroun
