6: As it Should Be

Tristian

This day hasn't gone as planned at all. It was just another day, sure, but my love could finally find her mate. I was hoping it was me but my wolf, Silas, didn't respond. I know he loves Sunny, Dahlia's wolf, but she isn't our mate. Then everything started to go wrong.

First, I did find my mate. It should have been a wonderful and amazing experience. Instead, it was a nightmare. I locked eyes with her and immediately knew it was Daisy, the useless Omega in our pack. Silas momentarily was blinded by the joy but even he knew she wasn't going to be a strong Luna for our pack.

Second, I rejected her. It was obvious to me and I did it heartlessly. I never felt sorry for her as weakness in our pack needed to be weeded out. I knew it could have killed her but so be it. Then she accepted it. The pain I felt in my chest was agonizing and I realized what I just put her through.

Third, I looked back afterward. Seeing Daisy faint made my heart ache and I caught her. Once she was so close, I got lost in her scent. How could someone smell so good? It was a mix of fruits and flowers and I never thought I'd love it so much. However, I also noticed how small and skinny she was. She was so fragile and I found myself racing to the pack doctor. I lied about what happened and acted as a good and concerned Alpha to his pack members.

Fourth, when I left Daisy to recover, returned to the party, and announced Dahlia as my Luna, I felt sick to my stomach. I always loved Dahlia, her spirit, her beauty, and most of all, her body. However, when I kissed her, I felt like I was going to throw up. I took her upstairs and marked her as my chosen mate with a bite to her neck, but I couldn't get going. Dahlia even noticed this, but I brushed it off. "Let's continue this later." That was all I said before leaving.

Lastly, after a long run in the woods, I ended up back at the pack doctor's place and stayed by Daisy's side. What's wrong with me? I already rejected her and she accepted it so why didn't it feel real?

Daisy looks so small in the bed. Her silver hair shines bright in the moonlight as does her ghostly skin. She has nice qualities but then she is Dahlia's twin so she has to. Dahlia is gorgeous and perfect. Daisy is pretty but nowhere near perfection.

While I'm deep in my thoughts, I hear a small groan and look over to Daisy. Her purple eyes shine even brighter in the moonlight and I pause feeling breathless. She's useless in the sunlight but the moonlight suits her well. Like she's a true creature of the night.

What am I thinking? Dahlia is my mate now! "Finally awake, huh?" I suddenly speak which seems to make her jump and look at me. Her purple eyes are wide but then I see the light in them dim which feels like a punch in the gut.

She bows her head submissively and quickly stammers, "I-I'm sorry to cause you trouble, Alpha." Her small body is shaking like a leaf. I just watch her now unsure of what to say.

No, this needs to be strictly business! "... Don't ever speak of our former bond to anyone. Is that understood?" I finally say and watch as she closes her eyes.

"Y-yes, Alpha," she keeps her head down and won't meet my eyes. I clench my fists and will her to look at me. I want her to regret accepting the rejection. I never thought she would do it.

Finally, I click my tongue and sigh. 'She really is weak. I don't even sense her wolf anymore.' Silas says in disgust. Even if we rejected each other, our wolves should still have that bond. I'm taken aback but I just continue to speak.

"I've already announced to everyone Dahlia is my Luna. I have already marked her too. Don't try and cause any trouble if you know what's good for you." I see tears forming in the corners of her eyes. I'm impressed that she isn't crying at this point.

"Understood, Alpha," At least she agrees and answers smoothly so I let out a breath of relief. "... When can I leave the pack?" When Daisy asks me that question, I stop and I feel my blood boil.

"Leave...?" Daisy looks up finally but then shrinks down fear in her eyes. "With that weak and useless body of yours? Don't even think about it!"

Before I can react, Silas takes over and rushes over to her. He pins her arms over her head and glares down. "Don't even think about it, Omega. You're going to stay here where you'll stay safe."

Now she's afraid! Tears drip down her cheeks and make her purple eyes shimmer. "I-I won't be safe here..." she whispers only to flinch when Silas growls low and forces her to look him in the eye when she looks away.

"Don't EVER talk back to me." Silas snarls and she cowers the best she can underneath us. "Stay put. If I hear you trying to leave, I'll throw you into the dungeons."

Even I'm shocked by his words and Daisy shivers in fear. Silas lets her go and storms out of the room. I can hear her faint sobs, but I can tell he's pissed.

'Silas, calm down!' I say but he goes straight for Dahlia's room. When we get there, we pull Dahlia close and drag her upstairs. Once he pins her down against the bed, her blue eyes show nothing but desire.

I compare her to Daisy and find Dahlia more attractive. Back in control, I kiss her hard and let out a growl. "Ooh... want it rough tonight? Yes please!" She purrs against my lips and I finally feel something stir in my pants. Finally!

Our clothes end up on the floor and I find myself pounding deep inside of her all night making her moan and scream out. Our bond is only just broken so I bet Daisy feels this right now. 'Good!' Silas growls in anger. Right now, we're angry enough to cause her great agony.

Everything is as it should be. Why should I feel any amount of guilt? Dahlia is my mate! Not that useless mutt.
