I blankly stared at the sharp dagger that I managed to procure from my secret trips to the kitchen, as my heart thumped wildly as if it would burst out of my chest at any moment.
Ha! I so brazenly made the plan, but now that it is time to execute it, my heart is backing out.
Ugh, what now? Damn you heart, why can't you just corporate with me?
Releasing a deep sigh, I strapped the dagger to my thigh and smoothed out my dress before making my way to join the despicable creatures.
As soon as I made my way into the hall of the pack house, a snarly voice screeching made me halt in my steps.
"Oh well, who do we have here?" Aurelia's scoff reached my ears, making me face palm in an are you fuckin kidding me manner as I tightly clenched my jaw at my poor luck.
Why can't I have a single moment of peace? I am not even asking for much, just a single moment. That's all I ask for.
I am the most unlucky person in this world. Yep, I will blame it all on my luck, make things a bit more bearable.
Turning around slowly with a fake smile, I took in a deep breath of patience and found her standing with a triumph smirk on her face as her arm was tightly wrapped around.....his.
Soon to be the Alpha of this pack, and my mate, Rowen.
A f-cking bastard, to put it simply.
Taking a quick glance at his stupid face, I saw him glaring at me. A full on murderous, I will kill you where you stand type, glare.
Wow, I can just feel the looove.
Aah, this actual piece of shoe dirt.
Ok, I think it is time for a long story. Prepare yourselves.
Werewolves are able to detect their mates the second they see each other. I spent my first couple of years strictly locked up in a small cabin deep inside a forest in solitary, so there was no way for me to find my mate. The second I arrived in the pack house, I saw Rowen smiling at me in welcome, and baaammm! My heart started to throb weirdly and his smile fell off quicker than the waves of the ocean.
If he could, he would have rejected me right then and there. But unless you're the Alpha, you have no authority and power to reject your mate, for you will both die.
So he put me through the next most torturous thing. He started becoming closer, with Aurelia putting me through the worst of pains.
Mate bond logic is actually so messed up. Like, he is the one sleeping around with other girls. Shouldn't he be the one burning and writhing around in pain? Why am I the one being punished for his sins?
I can never understand that.
Anyway, the closer he became to Aurelia, the worst pain I experienced.
Me whimpering around in pain was actually the thing that started Kaiden's sick obsession with me, and it all became a constant cycle.
Aurelia and Rowen would become closer, I would scream in pain, and Kaiden would enjoy the sight and hug me tightly under the pretense of taking care of me.
Ah, just thinking about the times makes my blood boil.
This cycle carried on for years until, finally, Rowen deflowered Aurelia. That was the night I experienced the worst of worst pains I had experienced throughout my pain filled life. The most horrible and fortunate day of my life. Although Kaiden started to openly assault me, the mate bond between Rowen and me gradually started to dissipate until I no longer suffered because of him.
Right now, as he glares at me, wrapping his arms around her waist, I feel nothing but hate for him. For both of them.
Aurelia smirked, kissing him on the cheek, while I tried my best to not cringe.
Seriously so pathetic. Ha! You know what? They deserve each other and nothing more.
As I stood with a fake smile, suffering from their cringe worthy antics, the bell rang loudly.
Meaning, the King was arriving anytime now, and all of us should gather in the hall.
They both passed me hurriedly, with Rowen roughly brushing past me, shoving my shoulder, and Aurelia throwing a glare my way.
I stood around in a daze, wondering what their purpose what holding me back was.
Did they seriously call me just to witness their puke-worthy relationship?
Ugh, how annoying. They have grown taller, but remain childish in the head. Oops, sorry. My mistake. Even a child would be far more dignified than the two imbeciles.
Sighing, I made my way to the hall, making my nerves of steel.
Ha, it's ok Seraphina.
There will be no more torment and misery after today.
Today is the day I finally have become free.
Absolutely nothing can spoil my day.
