Capítulo 3: HER WORST NIGHTMARE
There must be a mistake here somewhere, because something like this could never happen to her. She must have heard it wrongly. There was no way Blake betrayed her. They were mates and this was the most sacred bond between two shifters.
He was supposed to be someone that Dawn would spend the rest of her life with.
"There must be a misunderstanding here…" Dawn looked dumbstruck, she was confused and when her father was about to hit Blake again, she covered his body with her own, as she hugged him. "Stop it! Let's talk! You are confusing me!"
Tony raised his hand with his claws emerging, this time, he really meant to kill Blake. He wanted to claw his heart out of his chest, but he couldn't do that because Dawn used her own body to protect this bastard.
"Scram Dawn! I am going to kill him!" Tony snarled, he felt so hurt for the sake of his daughter. How could her own mate betray her in such a horrendous way?
"No! You are not going to touch a single hair of his!" Dawn screamed back at her father, as she still hugged Blake, who was lying on the floor. Blood stained their dresses and she felt so sick at the smell of it. "You are not going to touch him until I get a proper explanation! Tell me what is going on!"
Tony gritted his teeth, anger flashed in his eyes, he battled with himself whether he wanted to continue or he needed to withdraw.
In the end, he lowered his hand and moved away from Blake's body, while Dawn started crying. She asked the Beta to call a healer and save Blake. She couldn't stand the sight of him dying like this.
Everything became very chaotic and blurry, as they tried to help Blake. The healer moved quickly, because a few wounds were so severe, they wouldn't close in time and Blake's healing ability wouldn't be able to keep up with it. Without the healing power from the healer, they could be sure that he was going to die from all the loss of blood.
Blake was carried back to his bedroom, where Dawn stayed by his side. She was still in denial, she was not ready to hear the explanation from her father, but when everything finally calmed down, she was the one who approached him.
"Beta Jason, can you please leave me and my father alone?" she asked once she entered the room.
Both her father and his beta were in the middle of a heated argument about something, but Dawn couldn't care less to know what they were talking about. Her best guess was they were arguing over the fact the Alpha almost beat Blake to his death, but she was not sure and didn't need to know.
"Alpha, you need to think about this matter carefully, we can't afford his wrath," Beta Jason said before he left Dawn alone with her father.
"Please, explain. What is going on? Why did you act recklessly and slap my mate with a nasty accusation? Explain everything to me." Dawn was ready for the worst, but even so, she still couldn't have prepared herself enough for what she was going to hear next.
The Alpha was sitting on his seat and he looked so tired. He no longer looked livid, but spent.
"Emily is pregnant. When we took her to the healer, she confirmed that your sister is pregnant."
"Stop saying that she is my sister! I have no sister!" Dawn roared, she had enough of being tied to her. "She can get pregnant by someone else, she could be lying about the baby's father! How can you believe her so easily? How can you believe her without investigating this matter first?! Why are you always biased toward her? I am your daughter, but not even once have you ever stood up for me ever since they came into the picture! Are you really my father?"
Tony narrowed his eyes. He looked so hurt with what Dawn said. His audacity to act as if he was the victim here made Dawn feel sick to her stomach.
This man was the Alpha of the pack, her own father, the person that she respected the most, but right now, the sight of him churned her stomach.
"Because he admitted it. Blake, your mate, admitted that he has an affair with Emily and he himself told me there is a high chance the baby is his. No. He is pretty sure the baby is his." Tony said those words without any emotion, while staring into Dawn's eyes. "I am sorry, baby. I am really sorry."
Dawn felt her world come crashing down and she fell to the floor. She wanted to scream and cry, she wanted to shout that what he told her was a lie, but she didn't have any strength left, she didn't know what her father said to her when he approached her and tried to calm her down.
"That's impossible… I am going to ask him. I will ask him. You are lying to me, father."
"I am sorry, baby. I am sorry, my daughter. I didn't think it would turn out like this. I am truly sorry."
Dawn pushed him away from her, as if she felt so disgusted. "You don't feel sorry for me. You only feel sorry for Emily. You stopped caring for me a long time ago."
"That's not it. That's not right. I did everything for you."
Dawn stood up. She braced herself to walk toward Blake's bedroom, wanting to wait until he woke up to get a clarification from him, whether he was really the father of Emily's baby, but when she was waiting for him, all the memories came flooding back to her mind.
Dawn remembered how Blake had been defending Emily lately and it all made sense now.
However, if she thought this was already the worst, she was completely wrong, because her actual nightmare came in the form of an alpha from the north.
Capítulo 4: THE ALPHA FROM THE NORTH
Blake woke up the next morning and Dawn had been waiting for him all night, she didn't even sleep a blink while she waited for him to regain his consciousness.
Most of his bruises had disappeared and his injuries had started to close up. He looked fine now, only a little bit pale with a bandage on his left arm, because apparently, the Alpha broke his arm in a fit of rage. It was rather fortunate of Blake that Alpha Tony didn't shift into his beast, or else, he would have died and be buried six feet under the ground by now.
"Tell me, is that true?" Dawn's voice sounded very cold. That was the first thing she asked Blake the moment he opened his eyes. She had thought about this matter all night long. Thousands of scenarios swirled in her mind, and she had been anticipating the worst.
But even so, no matter how hard she prepared herself for this, no matter how harshly she told herself that she wouldn't get hurt over this piece of crap, she still felt this pain in her heart. She was in agony when she watched how Blake nodded in embarrassment.
Anger, sadness, humiliation, the feelings that she felt toward him were very complicated right now.
Dawn promised herself that she would reject him right away, once she learned that Blake had been cheating on her with Emily, the very person she hated the most.
"How could you do that to me?" Dawn asked, her voice sounded very distant, but she hated it further when she noticed how her voice wouldn't stop shaking.
"Dawn, please… that's a mistake. That's only a one time thing. I promise you it happened only once." Blake looked desperate, he tried to sit down on the bed and reach for Dawn, but she already stood up. He felt every bone in his body scream in so much pain after what happened. "I will stay away from her. I will never go near her again. She was the one who seduced me."
"And you are so weak to reject her advances?" Dawn mocked him, she stared at her mate derisively.
"Dawn, please. I am sorry. I will fix this."
"How will you fix this? Emily is pregnant with your child," Dawn said sharply, the fact hurt her so badly, but she gritted her teeth and endured it. She was not going to cry, at least not in front of him.
"I…" Blake tried to rack his brain in order to find a good enough idea to suggest to his livid mate, but he couldn't find anything. His mind went blank and he found himself in a dire situation when he saw the hatred intensify in Dawn's beautiful eyes. "I will find a way… I will ask her to get rid of the baby."
The same arduous idea had crossed Dawn's mind when she thought what kind of solution Blake would offer to her, but she pushed it away, because she didn't think he would get that low and get rid of his own flesh and blood, but apparently, he was indeed that low.
It was a shame to call him a shifter and refer to him as the Beta's son. He was the epitome of embarrassment for any male shifter for even suggesting such a horrendous thing.
"Do you really think Emily will do it?" Dawn laughed. Her laughter was very dry and less joyful, it didn't reach her eyes at all. This was the kind of laugh that could send shivers down your spine. "She did it out of malice, she did it to spite me. Do you really think she will let you off?"
Blake looked even paler now, he looked remorseful, but Dawn felt nothing, but bitterness when she saw his expression.
And at this point, she knew there was no going back for both of them anymore. This messed up situation could not be fixed anymore.
"I, Dawn Attiana Ash, reject you, Blake Michael Gillian, as my mate. May the bond between us be severed for good."
Blake didn't believe what he heard when Dawn rejected him. That sentence was something sacred, words that couldn't be spoken for their other half, but Dawn did it.
As soon as Dawn finished speaking, both of them could feel how the bond between them snapped. There was really no going back for them after this.
"Dawn!" Blake roared, as he felt this sharp pain in his chest and he curled on his bed again, gasping, trying to breath with so much difficulty, he felt like he was being beaten up all over again.
On the other hand, Dawn left the room before she broke down.
After the rejection, Dawn stayed inside her bedroom. She didn't go out for two days and two nights, as she suffered the pain of the severed bond, so did Blake.
On the fourth day, Dawn was conscious enough to notice someone else was inside her bedroom, but she was too tired to move her body.
"You are very pathetic, Dawn." Emily was sitting in front of her bed, facing her. She looked as beautiful as ever with her long, curly hair flowing down her frame. She appeared to be a sweet girl, though if one looked closer, they would know how rotten she was inside. "Let me tell you something interesting."
Dawn wanted to snarl at her to leave her bedroom, but she was too tired to even move a finger and yet, Emily kept talking annoyingly.
"Do you know why your father mated with my mother?" She tilted her head and smiled like a maniac. "Because he promised his daughter to the Alpha from the north. Of course, he doesn't want to send his own flesh and blood to live in the north, so he planned for me to fulfill that role."
Dawn couldn't understand what she was talking about, she had never heard something like this before.
"Congratulations! Alpha Zenith is on his way to take you to his pack! I think being away from you will help Blake forget you faster."
