The innocent reject

Chapter 9

Ch 9 I hate that I love you

Meeting room

Royal moon pack

"Good evening everyone!Today I have gathered you here to share with you a news!"

The old man who was the earlier king of this kingdom started.

"You all wanted a queen to stand here by the side of my son who is the Alpha king ,well I am more than

happy to inform you all that my son has chosen his queen and she is someone among you all"

"She may not have Alpha blood in her but she is a very powerful werewolf and you all already love her

for her personality"

His gaze shifted towards his son Aaron who was already staring at him with an emotionless look

"The future queen of werewolves will be Jane Augustus,if anyone has any objections they can state it

now or they can stay quiet for the rest of their lives,

Anyone??"

A elder lady of the pack objected

"I don't think they are mates,shouldn't we try to find our Alpha's mate?"

This was expected but the previous Alpha king dreaded this question

The answer to this question will cause a chaos

But he knew he had to tell them now

He had to spill the beans

He could no longer keep this as a secret

"Aaron's mate is dead "

Aaron clenched his fists on hearing this and closed his eyes

People all around gasped and started whispering to each other

The old Alpha seeked their attention and continued

"And as for Jane's mate he was a rogue who rejected her

Now I don't think there should be any problem ?"

All remained quit still digesting the biggest news of the decade

No one dared to question

"Good ,a ceremony will be held on next full moon 10 days from today to make this official and all pack

members are cordially invited"

Thank you!

meeting's dismissed !!"

Aaron was the first one to leave the room leaving behind all the rumours that have started and which

were going to spread faster than the wildfire in the werewolf kingdom

Aleka's pov

It shouldn't hurt

But it does

More than any physical pain I have gone through

There is this feeling which I can't explain

He is getting settled

She is perfect for him

Even better than me

I should be happy

But I am not

this pain in my chest and this uneasiness in my mind doesn't fade away no matter what

Aaron please let me go don't let me see this

I can live happily staying anywhere on this world knowing that you are happy

But if you want me to stay here and see both of you together everyday

Sorry I can't do that

I will leave to make it easier for both of us

I went towards the forest lost in my thoughts

I was so lost in them that I didn't realise where I was going

I looked around to see unfamiliar grounds

I turned to go back

When I saw two figures standing in front of me talking to each other

I hid behind the tree not wanting to intrude

"Everything is done,4 packs are with us and we are bound to win, he wouldn't know what hit him!"

One said holding the other person's hand whose face was covered with a black cloak

"A..are you sure we will win ,I mean he is the Alpha king after all"

On hearing this I looked closely to find the identity of this backstabber but his face was well hidden by

the cloak.

"I know no one was able to defeat him till now but this time we have the biggest and strongest alliance

against him

You don't worry trust me"

He pecked on the forehead of the person with the cloak

"I have and will always trust you"

The person with the cloak said and they hugged each other

I wanted to go there and rip there heads off this instant

But I controlled my anger

I will not let my anger overpower my brain which was asking me to wait

If I attacked them now I will never be able to know which all packs are against us

also the attack will still happen

So why not wait and watch what they could do.

"You tell me all the information I require here only after 2 days, same time,till then take care and be

safe!"

The tall man said to the figure with cloak

The cloaked figure nodded his head and made his way towards the pack house away from the borders

The tall figure in front of me changed into its wolf form.

I stood still Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

I knew a single movement from my side could get detected.

His werewolf hearings will detect slightest of sound.

His back was turned towards me and I couldn't see his eyes

But the thing that attracted my attention was his fur coat

It was jet black

Only 1% of the werewolf population had black fur

I wanted to see his eyes but before I could blink he was gone

I watched him cross the border

Before thinking I followed him

I just wanted to see his eyes

Could he be that red eyed wolf I have been searching for

I crossed the border and ran at full speed trying to catch up with him

But he was fast

No scratch that he was the fastest wolf I have ever seen

as fast as a bullet

And just like that he was gone with the wind

How was this possible??

Where did he go?

No normal wolf was that fast!!

I stopped and looked around

Not even a single movement could be heard

There was pindrop silence

Just like the deafening silence before a upcoming storm

Then I heard heavy steps coming towards me and next I knew I was pushed to the ground by

something big

I opened my eyes to see a big white wolf towering over me with baby blue eyes.

His eyes were focussed at me and his nose flared anger

I knew these eyes

The white fur and the royal black mark on his forehead gave away his identity

I tried moving under him but he snarled at me showing his anger towards me

I stopped all movements and just laid there staring at his beautiful eyes.

He broke our eye contact and got up changing into his human

I stood up and dusted myself

I expected him to shout at me for crossing the border

But he just turned around and started walking

I stood there confused at his behaviour

"Do you need a special invitation now! Hurry up !!"

I started following him and for next 10 minutes we walked silently towards the pack house

On reaching near the pack house I saw Jane coming running towards us

"O thank god you are alright!!why didn't you tell me where you were going!!I was so scared"

She had a genuine look of worry on her face

She came and hugged him

Aaron's hands were still at his side

But then he lifted them and engulfed her in a hug

I lowered my eyes and looked at the floor not wanting to look at them.

Since when did love started hurting so much,or was it just my unrequited love.

I sighed trying to escape this awkward situation when her eyes met mine.
