AUTHOR,

MUDITA UPRETI

Stella snarled at me and I took the defensive stance. No matter training or what, stella will never leave the opportunity to seriously injure me or maybe kill me.

"aadhya" suddenly ethan came between us looking directly at me. He is just wearing his shorts and his perfectly sculpted naked torso is on full display. He is dripping with sweat and his ash blonde hairs are sticking to his forehead..can a human eat a wolf alive?.. I don't know from where these thoughts came but I shook my head to remove these thoughts. I looked at him and found him smirking at me.. seems like he caught me staring at him.. "in dad's office now" he said and looked at stella's wolf who is now looking at both of us in anger. Ethan let a sexy chuckled out and walked towards stella and hugged her tight while her fur made contact with his naked form.. half naked..

"dad have assigned me an important work baby girl and I have to interrogate this weirdo for that.. sorry for ruining your fun" he whispered in her ear and I can literally give any thing to anyone who can explain me how in this hell a human like me able to hear his words from afar. I wanted to hear more but their close proximity is breaking my heart so I turned and walked inside the pack house towards alpha aiden's office. I knocked the door and waited.

"no one is inside" I heard ethan's voice from behind me, so I gave him side to enter the room. He looked at me with weird expressions and took few deep breaths, after sniffing few more times few creases appeared on his forehead and he shook his head in irritation. When he crossed me our hands rubbed with each other and this was enough to quicken my breaths and heartbeats, I instantly took a step backward and heard a growl from him while he entered the office. I followed him inside and he closed the door behind me. I went towards the table and took a chair while he is still standing at the door, I turned the chair and took a seat so that I am facing him.

"dad told me you killed a vampire" he said and I tried to read anything from his expressions but unable to do so.

"yes" I kept my reply short.

"what were you doing in arsenal when you should have been in safe house" he asked me again in same tone.

"layla and me were searching for beth, layla found her in arsenal and I went there for them, when I entered that vampire was about to snap layla's neck. So I did what I thought was best" I explained him and I just wanted to just exit this place right now. This mate bond is clearly having stupid effects on me.. he should wear a shirt or something..

He started taking steps towards me and I tried to look not affected by it. "you wanted to say that a human like you entered the arsenal and go unnoticed by a vampire who have amazing smelling capacity and that's not all you beheaded him that easily" he put his hands on either side of chair handles and leaned so that we were face to face with each other.. "I should say either that vampire was a very weak one or you are a very interesting story teller" he said while his gaze is fixed on my lips. I can feel his body heat from his naked torso which is inches apart from me and his manly scent is making my head dizzy. " tell me the truth aadhya" he whispered huskily and I shivered.

"I-I a" I tried to say something but my mind and eyes are only focused on his lips. How will I feel if these pink lips will cover mine? I just have to move forward a little and our lips will meet each other. I don't know what I was doing when I heard a voice.. "AAadhyaaa" the same emotional and cracked voice that I heard in my dream yesterday, this is enough to break the trance which mate bond created around us. I pushed ethan backwards and stood from my place. My heart is pounding wildly in my chest and my breaths are labored. I looked at ethan and he is also breathing heavily. For few minutes none of us did or said anything. I recalled everything that happened few minutes ago and again my heart started beating wildly but this time it is because of anger. I looked at ethan who is looking immensely irritated and angry with himself..seems like i am not only the one who is effected by matebond..

"I don't have any scent" I told him and his head jerked towards me "from the day I was born I never had any scent. The lavender scent that you all consider as mine, is not mine. It was a scent mom gave me to apply everyday so that I should not be treated as outcast. Few of my known, alpha and luna know about this. When I killed that vampire I was not wearing my scent" I told him the truth and took a deep breath. "yesterday I don't know how you three were able to smell my scent but as soon we exited the pack house it was gone again".

When I felt wetness on my cheeks I realized that I am crying. I don't like to cry in front of anyone but crying in front of him is feeling right..fuck that stupid mate bond.. I wanted to tell him everything today, moon goddess made him my mate, so with it she also gave him right to know about me everything. "I never wanted to be an outcast ethan, I also wanted to be accepted.. I also wanted to be loved" I wanted to continue but a sob escaped through my lips and I sat on the chair. He is looking at me with pained expressions. I know his wolf wanted to comfort me but he is stopping himself. He took a deep breath, came towards me and sat on the chair beside me while maintaining proper gap between us.

"somethings are not in our control addy, they just happen and we have to transform our lives according to that" I have not expected that, ethan and me having decent conversation and did I mentioned that he called me addy. After 10 fucking years he suddenly remembered that I am addy and not some fucking weirdo. "no matter how much my wolf want you, he also knows that we can't take you as our luna. His attraction to you is only because of mate bond and nothing else" he said and I looked in his eyes. For the first time in these 10 years he is not mocking me, not throwing insults at me but still the sincerity of his words are piercing my heart...but can I contradict him? do I have any counter statement to tell him that he is wrong? Is he wrong?.. he is right, he is never attracted to me and no matter how much I hated that word 'weirdo' but that's the truth. I am different from anyone else, I neither have qualities of humans nor that of werewolves. I can't even say that stella came between us, she is always there with him for complete 3 years and just because moon goddess wanted to have a good laugh by mating me with him I can't decline that he is nothing but serious about stella. He is not a man whore who sleeps with any girl, he is only with stella and no one else.

I looked at him and he is still looking at me in pain. I wiped my tears and gave him a genuine smile and he looked as if he melted with my one look. "I never wanted you as my mate ethan because I know that you will never love me" he is not stopping himself from expressing anything right now because I am able to read his expressions very clearly and right now he is shocked "and still when I found out that you were my mate I was beyond happy and this is not because of any stupid alpha thing or like that. You were my friend once so I am believing that you have known that little about me." I smiled and a similar smiled came on his face maybe he still remember our childhood time together "finding a mate is a very powerful indication for me that I am not an outcast or weirdo. I felt a little feeling of belonging, acceptance so, I can't deny that your rejection is a cruel blow for me" now he looked away from me and clenched his jaw "I was always afraid that one day layla and matt will find their mates and will leave me alone here at the place where no one wanted to accept me" I didnot looked at him but I can feel his gaze on me. "I have tried to blend with people as much as I can because I don't wanted be an outcast but nothing helped, but now I think they are going to be the same so I will do everything that I want, I don't want any feeling of belonging now, if they wanted to call me names treat me different they can do.." I got up from the chair and took few steps away from him and confused expressions crossed on his handsome face.

"I AADHYA brown, daughter of Daniel and rose brown of blue moon pack, accept the rejection of ethan smith as his mate and luna of blue moon pack" as soon these words escaped from my lips ethan fell on the ground and screamed in pain while I clutched my chest. I also sat on the ground as the pain is becoming unbearable slowly, I gasped for breath while trying to stop my pain. After few minutes of insufferable pain it start to fade away slowly. I looked around and found ethan still screaming and thrashing. I crawled towards him and took his hand in mine. Again sparks traveled down our bodies and the overwhelming urge to hug him surrounded me but I restrained myself from doing so. He is still on the ground but is not screaming anymore, ..so I am guessing mate bond still have effect. I don't know for how much time we sat there holding each other's hand but I left his hand cautiously when my mobile ringed in my pocket.

"hello"

"tell us that he have not done anything to make us kill him" I heard layla's voice from other side.

"I will be in my room within 5 minutes" I told her and she cut the call..now I have to give them complete details..

I got up from my place and looked at ethan who is looking crestfallen. "it's good to have a decent conversation with you ethan" I said and without waiting for his response I went to my room. As soon I entered I met with a furious layla and matt.

"she had been crying" layla roared but before she assume something bad I burst the bubble.

"I accepted his rejection" as soon these words left my lips both of them froze on their places.

"you accepted his r-re-reje--" layla did not even be able to say the word and shuddered.

"but-" matt wanted to say something but at last he shook his head and slumped on the bed in defeat. I already saw that shine in their eyes when I told them I found my mate yesterday, no matter ethan rejected me or not they still have that small hope in them that he will take his rejection back and accept me as his mate but when I have had accepted his rejection there is no chance of u turn.

Matt stood from bed and hugged me while layla is still trying to gather her thoughts. "are you alright addy" he asked me and I tightened my hold around him.

"no" I accepted and he nodded. "but I will be alright, but I wanted to ask something from you" I told them and they hummed.. "even after accepting his rejection when I touched him, I again felt the sparks" I told them and matt took a deep breath.

"mate bond can only break when your partner is dead addy, no alpha even not the alpha king is strong enough to break the mate bond" he said and I huffed in irritation

"then what does that stupid rejection is all about"

This time layla stood from her place and put her hands on my shoulders "if you will maintain distance from ethan than it will fade away slowly. How much slowly I don't know but I know that distance helps if you want to stop mate bond from growing or in your case fading after rejection" she explained sadly. "he took your acceptance easily?" she asked me and I shook my head.

"did he hurt you?" matt asked me and layla looked for any kind of injuries.

"mate bond will never allow him to hurt me physically" I told them and they nodded slowly "but yes it is painful, for both of us.. and this time more for him"

"good, he deserve that after what he did" layla said and matt nodded.

"no one deserve to go through this pain layla" I told her and sat on my bed "and we all knew that he loves stella"

"if moon goddess have paired you with him it means you are the best match for him" matt contradicted "and you are his mate addy, he have no option than to fall in love with you"

"loving stella is his choice while loving me was more like an obligation and believe me dude I will prefer to live alone rather than living with someone who is only with me due to an obligation" I explained to them and a burdened expressions crossed layla's face.

"I don't know what is it addy, you are not wrong but what he did is also not right" she said and I nodded.

Matt came towards me and sat on the ground "don't be sad addy, my threesome offer would always be valid for you till lifetime" he said in full sincerity and I punched him hard on his shoulder while layla laughed loud. I tried to stop myself from laughing but he is still looking at me with full sincerity that made me finally lose. We laughed for few good minutes.

"your brain is turning into 'lust gutter' day by day matty" layla told him and ruffled his hairs. He glared at her and went in front of dressing table and styled his hairs.

"I can digest your lame jokes but I will not accept any kind of stunt with my hairs" he said while styling his hairs. Layla rolled her eyes on his statement. "I am an unmated wolf in mating age, I always have to look good for my mate layla" he said and I smiled on his stupid antiques.

Suddenly both of them stopped their bickering and I looked at them, their eyes are unfocused, so I huffed and waited for them.

"alpha called us in training ground" matt answered my questioning gaze.

"and it's something serious" layla completed his sentence and we ran downstairs. Almost everyone is gathered in the training ground and few are coming running just like us. We stood there and waited for the alpha to come while Beta, gaama and delta couple are already standing in front. After few minutes alpha and luna came in front with few other people who are not from our pack. I turned towards matt and layla to ask them if they know who they are. Their eyes are shut and they are sniffing the air as if their lives are dependent on it.. which is truth.. I rolled my eyes on my conscience but got shocked when I finally realized what is it. I looked at them with wide eyes and open mouth when both of them uttered the same word together 'MATE'.

The wolves that were standing with alpha and luna few minutes ago are now walking towards us. I already knew that werewolves are naturally beautiful creatures, but believe me these two weres who are coming towards us are the most beautiful weres I have seen till today. I don't know who they are, but I can feel the power radiating from their bodies that means both of them must be rank holders in their packs. The she-wolf that is standing in front of matt is of same height as me and has shoulder length auburn hairs and have green eyes. She checked out matt openly and whistled "didn't I told you ell, my mate will be the most dashing male on this planet" she told to the male that is staring at layla without blinking.

Layla scoffed on her statement "have you not heard about mate bond and mate pull women" she told her while her eyes were glued to the man in front of her. He has a good height of 6'0, has perfectly styled chestnut brown hairs with blue eyes. Finally on layla's statement that man smiled and shook his head.. "and didn't I told you mia that my mate would surely be the one with sarcasm" he told her and on his statement layla blushed furiously.

That mia girl rolled her eyes and again focused on matt. "what's your name handsome" she asked him. Matt is still looking at her and is taking deep breaths..probably inhaling her scent.. I am standing between layla and matt so I nudged matt. Suddenly mia growled at me, pushed me on side and came between matt and me. I raised my hands in surrender. How can I forget that mates can be extremely possessive until they mark each other. Matt looked at me in panic as his mate glared daggers at me.

"hold her stupid" layla said to him and his eyes got wide "o come on, she is your mate for damn sake" she shouted at him in irritation. Matt slowly put his hand on hers and mate bond started its magical effect instantly. Suddenly mia turned towards him and hugged him tight and breathed his scent. I tried to stop myself from laughing but as soon layla started laughing I also broke and joined her. Matt's eyes were wide, his mouth open and his hands are looking like they froze in mid air and if you look more closely you can get that he stopped breathing in shock. When mia left him he finally got into some senses and took a deep breath. Finally I stopped laughing but layla is still laughing and her mate's eyes are still focused on her while I can see a small smile on his face.

Matt rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly.. "I am matt, matt walker" he said to mia and she gave him a breathtaking smile.

"hi matt, I am mia Williams" she told him and he nodded still a little red from her hug.

"ellon wood" layla's mate told her while extending his hand towards her. She put her hand in his without thinking twice.

"layla black" she told him and he kissed the back of her hand which made her cheeks to turn into deep shade of red. I can see that he doesn't wanted to leave her hand but decided against his will and left her hand. As soon their little introduction session ended someone cleared his throat and we all looked at the source. Alpha aiden is now standing in front of us.

"I am glad that you have found your mate but we have to do an announcement" he told to mia and ellon.

"sure alpha" mia told him in confidence, she took matt's hand in hers and walked towards the front.

"I would like if you will come with me" ellon told layla but it's clearly written on his face that he is dying to hold her hand again. Layla looked at me and then at alpha. I knew she also wanted to go with her mate but still she was thinking about me. Alpha gave her pointed look to not ask me to come in front..he would never want me in front.. She took a deep breath and was about to open her mouth when I interrupted her.

"yes, she will come with you" I told on her behalf and finally this time ellon's gaze shifted from layla and he looked at me. A shocked expression crossed on his face but in a second he concealed it perfectly. I would have pointed it out but it is something that I have accustomed to now. Human living with werewolves is not so normal. I smiled at him and he nodded stiffly.

"you should come beta ellon"..so he is a beta.. alpha aiden said and ellon extended his hand for layla to hold. She looked at me in doubt but when I gave her encouraging look she huffed and finally put her hand on his and all the three of them walked in front.

Alpha aiden came in front and started speaking "blue moon pack, the recent attack that we faced was not a simple rogue attack, unfortunately vampires were also working with them." Blue moon pack have exact 357 werewolves and if you include me than 358 member, and all of them are present here but still the crowd is pin drop silent. "50 rogues attacked us but we don't know the exact number of vampires. We all know that vampire's attack are not common, so we reported this attack to the royal pack "crescent moon" about this and since we managed to kill one vampire so we have enough proofs that we were attacked by them. Taking into account the threat of this situation, Alpha king sent his beta, Ellon Wood and gaama Mia Williams to look into this matter. They are going to stay in our pack for few days so if any of you wanted to give any information you think can be helpful about this situation you can talk to the beta and gaama of crescent moon. As long as they're here they'll be helping gaama Alexander and leah in training the pack and teaching the skills that will help us in any attack that will consist of vampires." He said and gave us time to digest the piece of information than continued.. "I am also happy to announce that we have got the permission to host 'mate ball' this year in our pack, so I request everyone to postpone any plans that you have in coming three months in which you have to go out of the pack for something or some work as we have a lot of preparations to do, if someone have emergency cases than I wanted them to personally come to inform me. Thank you for your time. Have a nice day" with it alpha aiden ended the pack meeting and gestured to everyone to return to their work. He went towards ellon and mia and they started talking with each other while layla and matt stood there looking for me in crowd. I looked around and found that most of the people have already went, so I also turned towards the pack house when a voice stopped me.

"aww, our weirdo lost her best friends" I already knew it's stella.. despite her mean behaviour I never hated her but after ethan's rejection I can't ignore the negative feeling that I am feeling towards her. I clenched my fists too stop myself from doing anything because no matter how much I control myself but this 'broken' mate bond is playing with my emotions. I closed my eyes and started counting backwards to stop my anger. "aww, crying will not change the truth 'addy'" she mocked and her friends laughed. "both matt's and layla'a mate are high ranking wolves than them, so they have to change their pack and shift with them, and finally they would be able to get rid of you" I knew my eyes are closed but her word are piercing my heart. I opened my eyes and looked at others who are now laughing while stella is smirking at me.

"you know stella, I can give you a befitting reply" I told her in matter-of-factly tone and now everyone got silent.. "and now as I have already killed a vampire and werewolf I don't think it will be very hard to kill or maybe seriously injure another" I stopped and looked at their expressions and everyone is shocked.. I never stood up to them before today.. "but you are the future luna of this pack and until I am a member of this pack I have forbidden myself for causing any harm to it's members" I told her in cold voice. I am expecting any reply from her when I heard a growl behind me and again I already knew who the person is..how in this hell I can recognize ethan's growl..fuck matebond.. he came in front of me standing beside stella and this site again caused my blood to boil. I just wanted to rip that stella into million pieces.

Ethan is looking angry but as he is breathing hard I already knew that he is trying to control himself. I heard few footsteps hurriedly running towards us so I looked backwards and layla and matt stopped in front of me while their eyes fixed on others.

"what did they did this time?" layla asked me while glaring at them. Mia and ellon also came towards us, while mia is not looking very happy ellon is just observing everyone.

"no one did anything .." I was trying to calm layla when stella felt that it is the perfect time to open her shitty mouth.

"I thought that you would leave your rescue job when you got yourself a mate layla" she told her and this proved that her skull is definitely empty..who the hell in this world tell this to she wolf, in front of her mate and not only a normal mate, he is a royal stupid.. "I know your parents have never pointed this out, but I don't think a royal beta would want his mate to be a friend of a lowly human like her, will he?" she told this and looked at ellon while checking him our while he is still calm. Layla growled and grabbed stella's throat, before she can do anything, ellon came in front of her and pushed her face on the crook of his neck and rubbed her back, while ethan removed layla's hand from stella throat... hence proved, stella is seriously dumb..

"calm baby girl, I am yours" ellon whispered to layla while she took deep breaths and I can see that his scent is calming her. He looked at me and matt "can we go somewhere else" he asked us and we nodded. We walked towards the edge of woods and all this time I felt ethan's gaze on me..if he really wanted that mate bond to worsen than he should make proper distance from me..

"you all can go to lake" I told four of them.

"and why are you not coming" matt asked and mia gave me a stink eye.

"I have some work to do" I told them and layla narrowed her eyes at me "I have to meet gaama Alexander" matt gave me a pointed look and I can see mia getting restless. I rolled my eyes but I can't ignore it, I don't wanted another ranked she wolf breathing down my neck.. "don't get me wrong mia, we are friends and nothing else. He only cares for me because as you can see I am a human living with wolves so very hazardous accidents can easily happen with me" I tried to make her understand.

"what do you mean by 'he cares' , are you saying that I don't care" this time layla said and crossed her arms and this time ellon gave me stink eye. I rolled my eyes on these stupid extremely possessive mates.

"for god sake guys, you have found your mates not more than an hour ago and still you are stuck on me" I told both of them pointedly "you have to forget about our threesome.." I teased and both mia and ellon growled while layla and matt tried to stop them while glaring at me.. "plans" I completed my statement while laughing while both of them were trying to stop their mates.

"what is that for bitch?" matt and layla both said in unison while trying to control their mates and this made me laugh harder.

"it's fun to tease extra possessive mates" I reasoned with them while they glared at me.

"may the moon goddess give you the most possessive mate of this whole world" as soon these words escaped layla's lips her eyes widened and matt looked at her in shock.

"moon goddess loves me, that's why my mate rejected me on the spot layla" I said in the same playful manner to not make her feel guilty but inside I knew that these words have huge impact on my heart.

As soon I said that mia and ellon stopped and looked at me with open mouth. I laughed on their expressions but everyone else is silent except me. "it's alright guys, just go and spend some time with each other" I told four of them but now all of them are looking doubtful "when I accepted the rejection, I accepted every thing that comes with it". layla and matt nodded but mia and ellon were not looking convinced. "I am more than what I look royals, don't think about me.. go and have some fun with your mates" I told them and turned towards the pack house. I went to my room but as soon I opened the door I came face to face with ethan.

"what are doing in my room" I asked him with straight face. He came towards me and closed the door..obviously he can't let anyone hear our conversation, and no matter every room in pack house is sound proof or not, you have to close the door..

"you are not supposed to tell anyone that I AM your mate" he snarled and despite his anger I can see a little softness in his eyes.

"and whom I told that you WERE my mate?" I told while correcting him and he growled.

"don't try to be smart aadhya, I heard you telling those royal wolves" he said and took a step towards me and I took a step backwards. He didn't seems to like it because his eyes are swirling between brown and black.

"I told them that MY MATE rejected me, I never took your name, did I?" I asked him pointedly.

"I don't believe you" he told me and this made me smile.

"then don't" I told him and he looked at me in irritation "I don't want anything from you, not even your believe and I expect the same from you.. I also have nothing to give you" I told him with a sad smile "I can't deny that I don't wanted you because mate bond is not in my control, but I can confirm one thing" I told him with full seriousness "I will never allow myself to accept you as my mate" I can see from his expressions that my words hit him really very hard. "and don't take tension about anyone knowing about me being your mate. I don't wanted my name to be attached with you. The more this mate bond force me, the more I will be repulsive towards you" this is the final straw for him.

He growled loudly and pushed me on the wall, his whole body pressed against mine, the familiar sparks ran through my body because of his touch but they are not as effective as they were before. I don't know what came into me but as fast he pushed me on the wall with the same speed I clenched his right hand from my shoulder and with a swift motion twisted his hand on his back with full force. He screamed in pain and I heard a crack of snapping of a bone, that sound is enough to make me come in senses, when my slow brain understood what have I done I left his hand with a gasp and took few steps backwards..did I just overpowered an alpha wolf.. can't this day become a little less adventures.
