SIENNA
I woke up suddenly with a sharp pain. My mind was alert immediately as I tried to pin point what exactly was wrong with me and why I was suddenly feeling pain all over.I wondered about it, trying to come up with a possible reason but nothing seemed to be coming to me. Then suddenly, the pain hit me again and that was when I knew what was happening.My fated mate, Jasper was having intimate relations with someone or more precisely, he was having sex with his girlfriend, Sandra and that was what was causing me such severe pain as this.A wave of pain came over me again as I doubled up, clutching my stomach because the pain was threatening to overwhelm me. I was trying not to scream but I doubted if I could hold it in any longer.I was sweating profusely now and I was almost close to passing out so I began to scream. I screamed and screamed until my throat was sore and I could scream no more. My voice was now hoarse and my eyes were red.When the pain stopped almost an hour later, I was very happy that I had survived that phase of agony. It has been nothing but pure hell while it lasted and I never wanted to go through it ever again.But I knew that the only way it could never happen again was if I accepted my mate's rejection of me.***Few days later, I was sitting down in my office and working on some files when I heard a knock on the door."Come in," I called out and immediately, someone stepped in. It was a guard and he spoke promptly."Alpha Dane has asked for your presence in his office," he informed me."Alright, I will be there."Then the guard turned around and left and I turned back to my desk and cleared up my files before heading out. When my father summoned me, he couldn't be kept waiting. I had to go and see what he wanted.I stepped out of my office and walked along the hallway until I got to my father's office. It didn't matter that I was his daughter; I had to knock before entering his office. So I did. He quickly answered, calling out for me to come in.I put my hand on the door knob, turned it and stepped into the tastefully decorated office, turning around to close the door behind me.I walked to the large mahogany desk in the middle of the room and stood before it."Yes, Father," I said.He raised his head up from the paperwork in front of him and fixed his gaze on me. Then he gestured to the seat in front of his desk, motioning for me to take a seat. When I did, he started to speak."Do you know why I have called you here, Sienna?" he asked."No, I don't, Father," I responded.So he cut straight to the chase. "I know that you have found your mate. And I know that he rejected you but you refused to accept it. I also know about the pain you have been going through as a result of his actions. So now I have only one order to give you. You have to accept his rejection of you in order for you to stop experiencing all this pain. In doing so, you will be able to move on and focus on your priorities. Please, my daughter, just do this."I wanted to take my time to think about all of this but I knew that there was nothing to think about again. I had to do as my father said. I had to do it and move on. If I did it, I would be able to focus on my duties and start training to become the Luna of the Coleman Pack. That was what I had to do and I would do it. My fate was sealed."Alright, father. I will do as you have said. I will reject him," I said to him and he nodded."Then do it. Do it, Sienna."I steeled my heart and squared my face up. "I, Sienna Coleman accept your rejection of me and in turn, I reject you, Jasper Manuel as my fated mate."And with that, blackness descended upon me and I collapsed, falling onto the floor of my father's office.SIENNAIt had been a few days since the rejection, and it still hurts just the same. Anytime I thought about it, my heart squeezed against my chest painfully like someone had shoved their hands in it and was pressing onto the organ. But I guess that’s what he did, just not literally. Even without getting to know my heart, he ripped it out and stomped all over it. I thought that as the days went by, I’d feel a lot better but I didn’t. Not even in the slightest. I still felt terrible and I bet that even my looks were just it – terrible. Eating became a problem too, and I found myself gradually emaciating as the days went by. I could say that whatever connection it was that we had, had started to die out, but I hated that the feeling of hurt didn’t die with it. There were things I wanted to do, the usual I did. But what can you do when you lack the motivation to move a fraction. The mind should be the first thing to move before the body did. I heard a knock on the door to the room I w
SIENNAMy trainer once told me that if I wanted to be the best, I was going to not only beat the odds but also be ready to get beat and broken. So I did just that. I let myself get beaten, just so that I could tell what if felt like to be in such intense physical pain. I broke a few bones and even got to experience what being shot with a silver felt like and let me say that it wasn’t something I was looking forward to ever experiencing ever again. To beat the odds, I had to train harder than everyone else. That too was painful, my mind screamed at me to take a break but I didn’t. I told myself that I couldn’t afford to, not until I became the best. And that’s what I had been doing for the past two years. My life revolved solely on office work, training grounds, pack meetings alongside my father and a few occasional visits to my bed like a normal person should. And did my body break down? From time to time it did. And each time I got the chance to get back up again, I pushed myself e
SIENNA’S POV Having made my father and everyone else proud, I felt a huge weight being lifted off my shoulder. There were still a lot of pressure I was going to have to face but the level I needed to handle and cross over I had done it. “When I get to that bridge, I’ll cross it.” I mumbled to myself as I took a stroll around the garden. After the fight, I headed to my room and took a long nap. When I woke up realising I was not going to be as busy with training as before, my body craved another form of exercise. The type that would feed my eyes and relax my mind for a while. I opted for a stroll of course, another thing I didn’t have the luxury of doing because then my existence was spent traveling for pack meetings, dealing with pack business and training, the one thing I looked forward to was my good night right only to repeat the circle again. I took off my shoes and let my feet touch the grass carpet that was laid everywhere in the garden and walked over it. The spiky ends tic
SIENNA’S POVIt has been two weeks since I got news that Hailey got married and there was a rogue attack that left each and every one of us devastated. We didn’t know where they came from or even how they got into pack grounds. Their attacks were not only unexpected but while fighting them off, they were too unstable and unpredictable which didn’t give us room to fight them off at their erratic movements.And this has caused many lives to be lost and a lot of people injured including my father. He had been trying to help a pregnant woman get to safety when one of the rogues got to him. The woman did get to escape but he was left injured and pretty badly.I stayed with most of the warriors fighting as much as I could making as much damage to them as I could. This was my pack and if I was going to lead them someday, I needed to show them once again that I could. I couldn’t lead a pack without pack members now could I?It was hard though, seeing as the more I killed, the more of them see
SIENNA’S POV After the little back and forth with the pregnancy case, I had to make them all leave to come back the next day, which was today. I told them it was best to cool off for some time and the we could reconvene at the office again. This was an opportunity for me to ask my father for help and I did. Making decisions has always been a hard thing for me to do but I was willing to learn to do the right thing at all times. When I got to my father, the case was the first I spoke to him about. “What do I do Dad?” I asked him my mind whirling with questions.“You know what to do Sienna. You don’t need to ask me these things. You’re smarter than this.” He said sounding disappointed at me. He didn’t understand my dilemma. It wasn’t that I didn’t know what to do but how to go about it without sounding unjust. “Dad, I get what you’re saying. What I’m trying to say is that the boy didn’t force the girl to have sex with him even though he knew she could get pregnant. She on the other
SIENNA’S POVI was jittery most of the ride to the Claw Moon Pack. They weren’t just dangerous and I knew it. I wanted my father to come with me but he thought that since I was able to handle SilverMoon by myself, there was no need for the world to see him in his injured state. That would further only announce the state of things in our pack and that was the last thing we needed.It was his best idea to have me go alone but I was too afraid to do so. I opted for Benjamin to come with me, at least together we had a chance of surviving should something happen that would require us to defend ourselves.“Do us proud Sienna, this is our chance.” I could hear my father’s words to me before I left. Benjamin looked chill it annoyed me. On reaching the pack borders, my heart raced more than it already was in the car. The security alone was enough to scare me away. And did I mention that they were dangerous? Because they were. They had primal eyes, ready to shed blood at any time. And my goodn
SIENNA’S POV My heart almost just out from my ribcage when Benjamin came around. I had my mouth wide open, unable to explain the situation. “Why do you look like you’ve seen a ghost Luna.” He teased, his features relaxing but still holding a confused expression. In order not to give myself away, I turned my head to meet Sylvester, my mate, whom I didn’t know existed but he was gone. There was no scent in the air to tell me he had been here. It was like I had imagined him, only I didn’t. The sparks and butterflies I felt surging through my body and almost making me pass out were real. I could not have imagined those things but then again he looked too good to be real. He was the type of man you’d hear from a book. And yet he existed.I thought of something quickly to say to him so that he didn’t suspect something happened. “This place is huge and someone could get lost. Plus you know I didn’t want to come here in the first place.”I somehow turned the tables on him, making it seem
SIENNA’S POV I stared at Althea with shock as confusion etched itself on my face. Not only was she saying he was my mate but that we both had a huge responsibility? What could that be? “I’m going to need more than just riddles to understand you Althea, what are you trying to say?” I asked barely able to sit still on my seat. “It is what you hear Sienna. If you felt the bond with him, he’s your mate. He’s a Lycan and you’re a werewolf, doesn’t that tell you that the moon goddess has big plans for the both of you?”“The only plans she has for us is war. Why would she pair me up with a Lycan knowing we’re sworn enemies? She trying to have me killed.” I exclaimed pushing myself of the stool and started pacing around. My father was surely going to kill me if he found out. But he shouldn’t have to considering I wasn’t seeing the man in secret even though my heart called out to him and for him. “No one can find Althea, please promise me you won’t tell a soul.” I was on my knees holding
