It had been one week since I started to avoid Ethan.
That day, I did not reply to his brother, Ryan. He said I was in love with Ethan. I was surprised at first, but then I realized he could read my eyes when I was looking at his brother.After that day, he did not come to bother me again. He became very popular in our school. As Teresa said, he did not date. I only saw him with different girls each time. Ethan also looked strange whenever he was around me. I did not know why. Since I was avoiding him, I should not think about it either."My honey's birthday is tomorrow. I am so excited."I heard Teresa cheer up about my birthday.It was going to be my eighteenth birthday. I somehow felt nervous. It was the time when werewolves found their mates. If before that someone marked me, I could be his mate. But I had not mated with someone yet, so I would get someone as my mate."What are you thinking?" Teresa patted my shoulder.I shook my head. "Nothing.""Are you still thinking about Ethan?"I sighed. I was not, but at the same time, yes, I was thinking about him.His relationship with Julie was not clear. He did not declare it either. But I was not his type, and my birthday was tomorrow, so I had to think only about my mate.Since he did not like me, I should not think about him either."I am worried about my mate." I explained to Teresa."Don't worry. He will understand you. You know a mate can change your life with happiness."I nodded my head. But it was not that. I always felt like Ethan was my mate. I felt that for a long time. I felt somehow connected with him. I was sure he could not feel that otherwise; he would at least try to talk to me about it.We talked for some time and then went back to our classes. After my last class, I was waiting for Teresa. I was passing a few classrooms when I heard growls.My legs stopped. I turned my head towards the classroom and went close to the door.The hallway was empty. I looked around and discovered that I was the only one there.Suddenly, I heard the sound of a thud. I immediately opened the door and saw two boys holding each other's collars.I was shocked when I saw their faces."Ethan!"I shouted and rushed to him. But before I could reach him, Ryan had already thrown a punch in his face.Blood was coming out of the corner of Ethan's lip. Ethan backed away, and his back rested on a wall. I cupped his cheeks and asked,"A-Are you o-okay? What is happening?"He frowned when he saw me. He slightly moved my hand from his face.My own actions astounded me. Ethan wiped the blood off his lips with his thumb.I looked at Ryan, who was glaring at me. "What's happening? Why are you hitting him?" I asked him.He stared at me for a few seconds, and his eyes became dark, which made me frightened. In those days, he only behaved childishly with me. I had never seen him like this. I remembered when he was a kid, he always got mad at others.Without my realization, Ethan walked to him and punched him hard.I was shocked. They started to fight again. Like wild beasts, they were up to each other's necks."Can you both stop?" I said and tried to move Ethan.I did not know what to do. Should I call someone for help? One of them broke his lips, and the other broke his cheek. What would I do?I tried again to move them but got pushed by them."Aaah!"I fell on a wall and got hurt in my head. I held my forehead. Ethan and Ryan both stopped fighting and looked at me. They looked stunned. They did not think that I would get hurt. "Fuck! What happened to you?" Ethan said and rushed to me.Ryan was standing where he was while looking at me.I felt dizzy. "D-Don't fight."I felt darkness engulf me and everything blanked around me. When I woke up I saw a white ceiling. I tried to sit up but felt a hand pushing my shoulder lightly."Don't sit up. You need some rest."I heard Teresa. I turned my head to the right side and saw that she was sitting on a tool close to the bed.I touched my forehead and felt a bandaid on the left side of my forehead. "What happened?" I asked her. I remembered the fight and then suddenly I got hurt."I called you. Ethan received the call and told me to come to this infirmary.""Ethan? How is he?""He looked fine to me. Just a cut in his lips.""Where is he?""He left the moment I came here."I nodded and closed my eyes. I took some rest and Teresa waited for me for an hour while sitting there.I stood up. The nurse told me I was fine to go. I took a painkiller and went out of the hospital with Teresa.She dropped me home and told me to take care of myself.When I entered my home, my mom saw my forehead and asked,"What happened to you?? You got hurt!" "Mom, I was feeling weak then I slipped.""You need to eat more. Should we go to the pack doctor for a check up?" She looked hella worried."No, mom. I am totally fine. I just need some rest."She stroked my head and nodded. I went to my room and lay on my bed. I thought about today's fight. Why were they fighting? When it was night time, I was going to have dinner when my mother came with a bag."Wear this and come down, honey." It was a beautiful brown colored dress inside the bag. I took it out and smiled."Mom, you did not have to do this."She kissed my forehead and said,"Your dad threw a party tonight. Teresa is waiting for you downstairs."I was not surprised. Every year my father called Teresa and arranged a small party for us four, on my birthday night. I was happy with it."Okay, mom." I replied with a bright smile.But my smile froze when I heard my mother's next sentence."It's such an honor that Alpha Neil and his family also came tonight to celebrate your birthday with us.""Allison, my dear, everyone is waiting for you downstairs. Come fast." My mother shouted from downstairs. I was in a daze when my mother left my room. She told me that Alpha Neil's family had come. That meant Ethan also came here. I shook my head. 'No, no. I can not think about him anymore,' I told myself. I glanced at myself in the mirror. I was in a long brown dress. It was a simple yet pretty dress. My mother chose it for me. It was my birthday gift from her. I was not particularly eager to put on much makeup, so I only applied mascara and light pink lipstick. I left my room and went downstairs. I was stunned when I saw the decorations in my own house. It appeared to be rather fascinating. There were so many flowers everywhere, and the fragrance of roses tickled my nostrils. 'When did they do all of these?' I thought. I smiled and went to the living room. The moment I entered, a pair of arms wrapped around my body and hugged me. "You look so pretty." I smiled at my
"MATE?"His eyes were gazing into mine. I could not describe how I felt at that time. In fact, I could not believe it.'Ethan is my mate?'It was like a dream I had been dreaming of for a long time came true.I loved him from my childhood days. We were kids. He always played with me, and we became playmates. But then he started to go to training to become an Alpha and I was busy with my studies.However, I was in the same middle school as him. My eyes always followed him wherever he went. One day, I was going back home alone; that night, I was trapped in danger. A few hooligans were passing the road and saw me. They tried to molest me, but in that hazardous moment, Ethan saved me. He did not even think about himself and protected me.Only Alpha and my father knew about this incident. They didn't tell Luna and my mother about it. They did not want to make them worry.However, after that night, my love for Ethan turned deep. I could not think of anyone else in my life except him.I cou
Third POV ..."I, Alpha Ethan, reject you, Omega Allison as my mate."Allison immediately grabbed her heart. She felt a loud noise in both of her ears. It did not come from outside but inside of her.She could see Ethan leaving her alone in the forest. She tried her best to stand straight until he left. The moment he left, she fell to the ground and screamed in pain."Aaaaahh!"She clutched her clothes, and almost pierced her nails in her palms. Why was the pain unbearable? What was happening to her? Would she die?Her head was burning like hell. Her wolf started to howl inside. She was whimpering in pain. How could he do that to her? Did he not know that by rejecting his mate, she could die too? "Please help me, Moon Goddess."She begged the moon goddess. Though she knew there was no way to save from this intolerable pain.It was nature's law. If anyone broke it, they had to bear the consequences. However, the law was one-sided. Only the wolf who got rejected could feel the pa
"Then let me have her."Hearing that Ethan sneered at Ryan. "She knows you are a playboy. Do you think you can actually have her?"Ryan shrugged his shoulders. "There is nothing in this world that Ryan Iversen can't have.""Don't forget who her father is. She is Beta Glen's daughter. He will kill you.""The one who rejected his daughter talking about his capability to me. Funny isn't it?"Ethan averted his gaze from Ryan. He tilted his neck. His bruised cheek by Ryan's punch was also healed in a few minutes."What if your impressed dad will get to know about his son's action? What will happen to your name in his good books huh?" Ryan said to him and raised a brow.His eyes turned dark. "If you want to tell him, you can. I am no one to stop you.""Are you serious? A coward like you who could not dare to accept an omega, talk like this?"Ethan turned around. "I am already messed up. Just leave me alone."Ryan nodded his head. "Looks like you are not happy after rejecting her. Why?"He s
Everyone was worried for Allison. Teresa just left the house after assuring Allison's mother that she would be okay.Beta Glen and his wife Joey left Allison's room half an hour ago. They would check on her in the morning. All of a sudden they heard Allison's scream."NO!"Beta Glen looked at Joey, she also looked at her husband. "Allison!"They let out and went on upstairs. They opened the door and saw Allison crying."What happened, my princess?" Beta Glen asked and hugged her.Joey started to cry when she saw Allison crying. What happened to her daughter? Allison shook her head when she realized that her parents came to see her. She wiped her tears and replied,"Nothing, Mom and Dad."They looked at her carefully. "Why are you crying?" Joey asked.Allison was silent. "It's okay if you don't want to say anything." Beta Glen said.Allison shook her head. Her voice was hoarse. She replied with that broken voice."I just had a nightmare."Beta Glen and Joey felt relieved when they
Allison POVI was flabbergasted when I heard Doctor Linus. 'What is he saying? A powerful high ranked wolf can only do that? If it's true then how did I survive? It is indeed questionable.' I thought.Doctor Linus patted my head when he saw me lost in some thoughts. "Don't think too much. We all are moon children. You may get some blessings. That's why you are totally fine. However, it could take your wolf's or your life too."I smiled at him sadly. I wanted to laugh at myself. How foolish I was! Loving someone who did not love you back was undoubtedly a wrong decision.I made the worst choice to break my heart. If my mate was someone I did not know then I would think less, but it was the same man I loved. "Who is he?"I heard Doctor Linus. I looked at him with my glossy eyes. "Who is he, Allison? I promise I won't tell anyone. You can trust me."I lowered my head. "It's your Alpha Ethan."He gasped. He could not believe what I had just said to him.Ethan was the soon to be head
"Welcome back, Baby."I snatched my hand from his grip. "Don't call me, baby."He scoffed at me. "You can only give me this look. Otherwise, you are just a scaredy cat in front of that lover of yours."I looked away from him. My mood was destroyed by this boy. Nice."I am surprised that you are alive." From his remarks, I recognized that it was he who was coming to me when I fainted. My parents told me that he took me back home."I thought you are de-""Thank you." I said softly. He deserved that thanks anyway.He raised his brows. "Wait a minute. Did I hear wrong?"I shook my head. I thought I should not talk rudely to him. He saved me when no one was there for me. What if some male wolves came to attack me that night?"Wow. It must be my lucky day." He smirked. "That's it. I just thanked you because you helped me that night. I don't want to talk anymore. Bye."I turned around and stepped forward but my steps were halted by him."He rejected you, didn't he?"I closed my eyes. Did h
I looked away from Ethan and focused on my food. Why was I so weak in front of him? I should not behave like that. That man destroyed me totally. Suddenly someone slammed a hand on our table. I flinched at the sudden action. "How dare you stare at my boyfriend?"I raised my head and saw it was Julie. She went to order but might see me looking at her boyfriend. But looking at someone was not a crime. I did not go to her traitor boyfriend or something. I was looking at him with hatred at that time."What do you mean?" I asked.She bent her back and whispered to me,"I know everything. He rejected you. You are no longer his mate. You don't deserve such a powerful Alpha like him either. You are nothing in front of him. Just look at yourself. Such an outdated ugly woman!"I got mad at her. How could she say those things to me? I stood up and moved from her. I glared at her."I don't have any intentions with your boyfriend. You can solely have him."Her jaw dropped at my words. She did e
