Chapter 6: Chapter 6

RECOMMEND SONG: Ocean Eyes By Billie

Eililsh~

Damien remained frozen for a while as his eyelashes flattered abruptly. This feeling of familiarity was far stronger than anything. He could hear his heart pounding like a drummer inside his chest. An unknown feeling quickly crept through his veins as he could eventually feel what was going to happen once they made eye contact.

Keeping himself in control, he tried to hold back his breathing inside his lungs as this was the only way of denying her existence around him. He wasn't quite sure about the consequences but his only fear leaped on the thought that what if she turned out out to be his mate. If it was in the past, he would have gladly turned around and marked her as him right away. But everything changed in his life once he met the girl in the tamarisk forest.

He knew that as an alpha King,his mate would be determined by the moon goddess naturally. But his impression towards the unknown girl was way more stronger than he expected. Even after days passed away, that little encounter with her didn't fade away from his mind. Instead it haunted him like a sweet memories.

On the other side, Viona paid zero attention to her surrounding as her only intention was scurrying away from this crowd. Since the day, she had stopped visiting unfamiliar wolves in fear that what if any of them turned out to be her soulmate.

In a word, both of them were eager to drift away from each others but unaware of the laws bonded with their destinies. The things which are destined to be yours will come to eventually.

As Damien continuously forced himself to stuck in his spot, Viona had already left the bartender after catching another for her puzzle mind. Even though she was forced to join this ball,she had no intentions of joining this mate ball unlike others who seemed way more excited about this eve.

As soon as she took her leave from there, Damien could feel his heart racing normal again. His brows tightened in frustration thus he picked up another glass and filled his lungs in a gulp. After dabbing his lips with his sleeves clumsily, he stumbled on the way of Hardin and forced him to lie down over the couch obediently.

Shit! He shouldn't have come today to join this ball. He should have come only after finding that girl. In that way, he could have rejected his mate tonight.

Due to his own turbulent frustration, Damien was pretty harsh on Hardin and used few punches to sober up this unruly creature. Even Celeb was astounded after taking a closer look of Damien's tempter.

What gotten into him?

Meanwhile, Viona had already found a quiet place to spend this meaningless evening. The corridor adjusted to the villa was pretty big and was wide open toward the mountains around. As the clock was ticking closer to 12 a.m which considered to be the exact time of claiming each others as their mate, nobody wandered around the corridor anymore. The teenagers insisted on staying with each others closely so that they wouldn't miss each others of finding their mates.

Thus Viona was in pretty good mood and enjoyed the moonlight shower of goddess while sipping her red wine. Even Brian was engrossed with his friends that he didn't look for Viona anymore.

The eyes of everyone were settled over the giant hanging clock which showed that there was only five minutes left before reaching 12. Damien was one of them whose frustration grew stronger once he took a look.

Damn! That girl.. will must.. come now..!

Damien wandered and couldn't put his mind in ease. His gaze desperately searched around to sense those familiar feelings but nothing could be found among them.

Biting his lips together, he excused himself from the crowd which surprised the crowd including some girls who dreamt of having Damien as their soulmate.Ignoring their suspicious glances, Damien made his way towards the open corridor in order to skip those weird feelings which gave him only one thought that his mate was present among them tonight.

His pace was steady getting closer and closer towards the corridor until it paused midway abruptly. Standing on the doorway, he faced a back of woman whose long hairs were floating in the random winds that came out from the distant mountains. His heart flipped inside once he mismatched the image of that girl from tamarisk forest at that night.

She had this long strands of hairs just like this woman!

An anxiety of meeting this face surged through his mind impatiently. His only wish was to run faster ro this woman and turned her around to see her face. But for the sake of his morality, he held back and started taking slow steps on her way.

Very surprisingly, his excitement grew stronger and stronger as he took each steps closer to her standing figure. At the same time, the smell of her feminine hormone filled his nostrils like an intoxicated fragment which kept dragging his feet on her way subconsciously.

Viona didn't feel his presence such strongly. She could only sense vaguely that someone was approaching her from back. But her heart raced more profoundly in fear. Her tips over the foggy glass tightened when the presence was very close to her body.

Turn around or not?

She questioned herself repeatedly but didn't know that what was pushing her to face the person behind. After going through numerous thoughts in a blink, she clenched her teeth hard and turned around in fury only to meet a pair of ocean deep eyes.

Just as Viona turned around unexpectedly in rush, Damien turned stiff in his track and paused abruptly. His eyes dialeted slightly in astonishment than turned into a pool of happiness after watching the familiar girl closely.

The happiness on his expression was so overwhelmed that Viona was stunned too before she could react anything. Both of them remained silent for a long time as the moonlight fell on their bodies gingerly.

Just as Damien pursued his lips together to say something, the wooden clock from hallway finally rang loudly. Howls from werwolves immediately spreaded out in the air of G-Mountain that heard mesmerising at this hour.

Damien's face immediately tingled in sensation as his red eyes kept staring at Viona's uneasy face. His breathing heavied earnestly as low growl escaped through his lips. Pursuing his lips together, he only spitted out one word briefly which was enough to shatter Viona's peaceful world,

" MATE! "

Viona gasped retreating back and wished that this narrow railing could swallow her whole. Her hands started shaking miserably and finally a loud bang of her glass tamed Damien's wolf form eventually.

Her body quivered all over in disbelief and saw Brian standing on the doorway awkwardly. Without giving Damien a chance to say anything, Viona blurted out between her gritted teeth,

" No! It.. It can't be.. I reject..I don't accept it.."

Brian froze in his spot including his friends who brokenheartedly trailed off Brian after not finding their mates tonight. After hearing out Viona's rejection, they all gasped in unison and glanced at each others disbelievingly.

Was their king rejected by his mate? No way! How could anyone reject such a perfect man like him?
