All Chapters of My Human Mate: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

(Cara's POV)It was like walking into the Shadow Pack for the first time, but this time they didn't hide their stares. In the Shadow Pack, I was the Luna, but not here; they stared openly; some even paused what they were doing to look. I didn't know I was this popular, not that I like this kind of popularity; it only made me feel weird.They were the weird ones.But here, being a werewolf was normal, and being a human amongst them wasn't.Rollins held me close; it was clear, not that I hadn't known before now; Rollins was feared; they treated him the same way they would their Alpha; but most of them stayed away from him, bowing their eyes when he passed by; but I, on the other hand was treated me like some artifact in the museum; it was getting irritating; I couldn't wait for it to be all over; to get back home; not that home held anything promising for me; I couldn't go past the shame I felt; that I was not strong enough; some part of me still wanted to accept the challenge; I knew

(Cara POV)Silence. Complete silence; everyone knew the risk and what I had just done. Emmaline smiled wide; she looked at me like I was the fool; maybe I was. I never was the one who stood up to challenges, but this time it was different. I could almost feel the weight of the Luna title on my shoulder, and it changed many things. For one, I didn't like being threatened; I didn't like to cower away like some coward; if I was given the title, I should be able to fight for it."No," Rollins growled. "There would be no fight." His eyes sparkled gold. He was angry; way more than that, he was furious."You can't stop it," I say, surprising not just everyone there but myself. "I would fight for the title.""And if you lose?" He asked, not bothering to hide the fact; it was clear, and everyone saw it too."Then I lose; she takes the position," I say, indifferent, but deep down, I tried hiding the fear; it would only be a matter of time before the regret would kick in. That was why I had to m

(Cara POV)I woke up on his bed.He had been soft last night, very careful with me; he hadn't forced me to do anything I didn't want to; he knew who I thought about all through; I woke up in tears; Teo was also awake; he only watched me as I cried, holding me close. I love Rollins, I really do, but I refused to be the girl that is left broken at the end.I didn't know which hurt more, knowing that I just cheated on him or knowing that he didn't return back last night to check on me. A part of me wanted him to; a part of me wanted to see that he didn't mean what he said and he wouldn't leave me alone, but that would be a lie. He meant what he said; he left me alone. I imagined how I would have felt, broken and alone, awaiting the fight... I should be grateful to Teo; I shouldn't make him feel bad, but he didn't seem to mind; he understood me. Being with Teo was easy; I didn't have to be good enough; I didn't have to earn up to my position; I just had to be... there.Now I wondered how

(Cara's POV)In the darkness, I thought about him. Rollins. I would lose him. I had never prepared myself for how much it would hurt when he was no longer with me.There was complete silence, and then I heard her voice. Emmaline. "Is this who you want as your Luna? She can't even stand up to me; how would she defend you? She would only bring about your downfall, but I would be the future."Rollins spoke over her, "Don't you dare speak about your Luna that way.""She is no longer Luna.""I didn't hear her surrender," he said. His voice was calm; I only could hear the rage in that calm voice."She would," Emmaline promised.She couldn't win, I repeated to myself. I couldn't let her win, so I pulled my eyes open and slowly I stood to my feet. Emmaline had her back to me; the crowd cheered more, and she smiled wide, thinking it was for her, and then she noticed, turning to see me- bloody and broken as I was. I was on my feet.In that moment she transformed to her wolf form, she used the o

(Cara's POV)I stared at the strange woman seated before me. I was sure I had never seen her before, but I also had this very strange feeling that she wasn't lying."My name is not Catalyn," I repeated."Not now, but it once was. There is a reason I called you here, but I am not sure if you are ready to hear what I have to say.""Spit it out," Rollins commanded.She gave him one look, and then her eyes fell back on me."First, I would like to tell you a story.It is about a warrior named Catalyn, the blessed. She was a blessing from the moon goddess herself; she was best at every single thing she did. The moon itself smiled at her, but there came a dreadful day. The Lycans attacked her pack while she was away hunting and slaughtered every one of her pack members, they were only a pack of fifty. She returned back to see what had befallen her people, the people she loved and could give her life for.There she wanted to end her life, but the moon goddess wouldn't let that happen; she wa
