Chapter 14: Chapter 14
"He did it again"
I cried in Aberdeen's arms while she rocks me back and forth like a child.
"I thought of giving him a chance but he chose her again over me" I still couldn't control my emotions
"It hurts so much Aber, first off he kills me and now he kills me again yesterday. He left me there to die"
Aberdeen hushes me but I just couldn't stop right away. I didn't know how and when I ended up falling asleep.
I woke up to the sunlight shining through my room's windowpane. I got up from the bed and went to get ready. Looking in my mirror after taking a shower I told myself that I won't let him degrade me again.
Twice is enough, I pick out a high waist skirt that reaches right above my knee and an off-shoulder spaghetti top. Then I put on my wedges and did a little bit of retouch to my makeup.
Shrieking "what the hell Aber?" my hand on my chest trying to calm my beating heart.
"Okay just don't freak out" she pushes me back into the room. "I don't want you to panic over this. I know I should have told you last night but I couldn't"
"Aber just cut it and tell me what is it." She half-smile "just don't freak out" I'm seriously running out of patience "Aber" my voice raises.
"Alpha Eric will be here today, I mean he's not gonna be the only one. There will be others," she flashes a smile waiting for my reaction but nothing happens. I know I should be but I won't let it ruin my effort of dressing up today.
'Embrace today and emotions later' Eliz says in my head and I agree with her. 'Conceal don't feel, right' Eliz rolls her eyes 'you're no Elsa but agree.'
Aberdeen and I talk for another 20 minutes discussing the upcoming meetings with other packs. Guess my former pack is going to be here too.
Reassuring Aberdeen that I'm fine she left me. Checking out myself once more I took a deep breath and made my way out of the room.
I quicken my steps downstairs knowing that I'll be meeting with them soon. I was so lost in my bewilderment that I didn't even bother to look up when I collide with something or someone.
Looking up I came to face with Mr. Hottie a.k.a the ruthless Alpha who rejected his Mate and cause everything to be in disorder. The one who heartlessly follows my mate's footsteps and left me there to die.
He's the one Jenna says who has no feelings and his pack is trained like a maniac.
"Sorry didn't see you" I apologize avoiding his gaze and moving to walk towards the hall where the meeting is going to be held.
The hall was already filled with different pack members, the high rankings with their Alphas and Lunas. I also saw my ex-best friend Serena who is now Luna to the Cascarade Pack, my former pack. She was sitting next to Claire. I settled on the chair third from the front row.
Lucian and Eric gaze never left mine but my eyes were focused on the wall. It was the most perfect view at the moment.
Once when all Alpha's are present they start the meeting. I find it boring so I close my eyes and pretend to listen yet I just want it to be over with.
The room fell silent I smile to myself 'finally now the headache is done time to go.' I open my eyes ready to be out of there but find it strange that everyone is staring back at me.
My body froze and my eyes wandered around to look for any sign of Aberdeen or Leto but my stupid head couldn't move a little.
"so ladies and gentlemen, apologies but what did I miss?"
The grin never left my face while deep inside I so want to disappear.
Love Xox,
Nica
