Chapter 9: Chapter 9

The training was hard, their techniques are hard to cope with. Trying to master it within a month is not a good thing but a month of struggle and stress.

After our last training, Jenna my newly founded friend from two weeks ago aside from Lucian walks beside me back to the packhouse. I mean the incident on my first dinner night made everyone outcast me. I didn't know they held grudges for so long.

Yet tonight will be my last dinner here but they still haven't made amend with me and it doesn't mean I didn't try. Believe it I did but they wouldn't bother, Claire was being a total bitch to me throughout this one month. Indeed, who cares I'm going back today and I would never come back here again since I'm unwanted here like my mate would care about it.

"I can tell you can't wait to go home" nodding my head I playfully try to tackle her down.

We saw a car coming slowly from the gate then it parked in front of the packhouse. Stealing a glance aside Jenna looks heated. She started to act differently by pulling back a strand of her hair behind her ears and trying to hide behind me.

I turn back and found a male staring in our direction and for goodness sake, he was smoking hot. He was just getting out of the car. His gaze never left my face and I challenged him by staring right back at him. Our staring competition was interrupted by Claire who came running outside and hugs him, then followed by Eric. They seem pretty close.

"Are you okay?" I ask Jenna

"that's Alpha Reed of the Moonbridge pack, he's" she moves closer whispering to my right ear "he's luna's mate."

My world stops

My eyes almost bulge out from their sockets

My jaw tightens

I am shocked right now, I thought she doesn't have a Mate.

Jenna fails to notice my reaction as she was busy blabbering about the trio in front of the packhouse who laughs with their conversation.

"The thing is he rejected her, then she ran away that's how she met Alpha Eric. I heard his Mate already died after mating with some Alpha" Eliz growl within me but I wouldn't let her out.

I wish she would shut up a little but she continues to tell me all about the trio. "So yeah as cliche as it is, he asks for a second chance but Claire already fell in love with Eric so she rejected Alpha Reed and choose Eric instead."

I felt like crying right now.

"And you know what's interesting Alpha Reed is now the most Ruthless Alpha without a Mate. Poor him and poor Eric's mate. I don't think she died or ever mated to anyone"

I clench my fist and hold back my anger "should we bet on it, they say she died but I have a hunch that she-"

"Thank you, it sounds thrilling Jenna but would you excuse me I have to go change now. So see you tonight or tomorrow?" I fake a smile "tomorrow" she says.

She waves me goodbye and went off to her home.

'Mated then die, well Eliz let's show them how dead we are"

Mustering up our courage I continue to walk towards the packhouse without a smile on my face. I made it to where they stood yet my eyes were focused on the front door.

"Hey, Elle how's training?" I kept on walking.

"Elle" I hear her screeching voice but my legs wouldn't stop.

"This is Alpha" her words fall on a deaf ear, sorry couldn't hear it.

I slam the front door before running up to my room then shutting my door behind me and slowly I slid down crying without making a noise.
