Chapter 6; That Day...

Chapter 6:

“hi mom” I said, with a smile on my face.

“hi baby girl. How is it, how’s your mate been treating you?” she asked curiously. How was I meant to answer that question? How was I supposed to tell my mom I’m unwanted?

“everything is fine mom, he is so kind and caring and I could never ask for a better mate than him.” I replied hesitantly. She simply hummed in happiness.

“I hope you all the best, by the way when will I meet him?” she questioned.

“he Is a very busy person mom, it will be difficult for him to visit you, but I promise he will soon.” I say, hoping that what I said will come true.

“I hope he comes soon; I want to meet my future grandchild maker.” He joked.

“mom...” I laughed at her words. Mom has always loved babies and girls at that. “okay mom, I will speak to you tomorrow, I promise, I think.” I said to her.

“okay baby girl, I love you.” She said.

“love you too.” I replied to her statement, and that gave me a bit of warmth in my heart. at least I know I’m not that unwanted.

I went to take a shower and when I was done I slipped on my pyjamas. I walked to the bedroom balcony and brushed my hair whilst looking at the star filled sky. I gazed at it as I hummed an old melody, my dad used to hum. I don’t exactly remember the words, but I can say that when my dad was alive, he had a beautiful voice. And that voice left a music nit in my mind to remember him at all times and I miss him really.

I walked into the room once again, shutting the balcony doors. I sat on my bed and got read to sleep, slipping under the covers. I looked at the ceiling and closed my eyes but I couldn’t fall asleep, instead I felt a tugging to my heart. soon, my face felt wet, I lifted my fingers to touch my face only to realize I was crying and I don’t know why.

I turned to my side holding and cradling myself, why does this hurt so much? Does rejection hurt. Why do I have to be so stubborn? Why do I have to have a willing heart? when honestly I’m just weak and lying to myself. I continued to cry and soon my tress muffed into my pillow, I began feeling tire and fell asleep.

Tomorrow is a new day, a new sun, a new time, and another opportunity to try and open his heart, another opportunity to make him want me, another opportunity to not give up. tomorrow

***************

The sun’s rays reflected into my face as I yawned and rubbed my eyes. Today is another day. I got up and freshened up then walked downstairs. I remember the table I was showed yesterday and walked there. Sitting down on the chair at the head was Zander and next to him was Brandon. I was happy to at least have someone who can make me comfortable seated here. I came in smiling, and took a seat next to Zander on the other side. But as soon as I sat down, he stood up.

“Brandon, I’ve lost my appetite, I’m leaving.” My smile faltered and a saddened smile too over my face. Oi haven’t done anything wrong. Yet he hasn’t even acknowledged me, what did I do to deserve this?

Instead I stood up and forced a smile on my quivering lips. “no, you sit down, I will leave. I am the reason for your loss of appetite, so I will leave and you can enjoy your breakfast.” I smiled. Walking away from him, and the table. I ran, trying not to get lost, I walked up the stairs to my bedroom. Shutting the door, I let a tear fall.

“nothing is impossible if I’m Irene.” I muttered to myself. I don’t want to go back there. I don’t want to be alone, I don’t want to fall into the dark abyss again, I don’t want to be alone.
I sat down looking outside my window. It the green garden full of flowers. But I’ve always had a soft spot for tulips. my Luna ceremony is nearing, just one more day. Nut I wonder, I’ve been rejected by the alpha, will I also b rejected by the people? The pack?

If that happens I know I can direct their love towards me, even if it’s just a few people. Then I can say I tried. A knock echoed through my room, interrupting my thoughts.

“come in.” I said, hoping for Zander. But rather Brandon walked in and to be honest it was okay.

“what is the matter, Brandon?” I questioned.

“nothing, I just came to see how youre doing. I’m sorry for alphas behaviour, please forgive him, its still hard for him to accept, but I know he will. In due time.” He tried making excuses.

“I know he will. And I won’t give up until he does, nothing is impossible if I’m Irene, and one day I’ll make him accept me.” I said to him. Brandon smiled and shook his head.

“anyway, lets lightened the mood! Let’s get you a dress for your Luna ceremony tomorrow!” he cheered, oi nodded smiling at him. “I’m sure everyone will love you, just like how I do.” He promised. I nodded yet again. we walked out of the room and down the hallway.

Sometimes I just wonder what would it feel like if it were zander instead of Brandon? Would I feel a little different, will the day when I get accepted ever come, and most importantly will I be accepted my mate or even more this pack? Will I be looked at in a different light, instead of a second, I can be looked at as a mate? The only thing I can do is hope for that day, the day when he will accept me, the day that all my hard work will come to an end.

I can’t help but feel that day is coming

*****************

I vacant wait for that day too! But will it actually ever come? How was this chapter? Did you enjoy it?

What do you think will happen at the Luna ceremony?
