Mom grounded me.
Why?
Because I went to that human pub.
Again.
Could she blame me, though? My mate rejected me for my best friend. The pub was my new best friend for the past month and I doubted that it would change any time soon.
She could ground me all she wanted but I would find a way to return to that place. She didn't want to listen to me neither did dad. At least the bartender took my feelings into consideration, even if she was paid to listen.
A plate of eggs was dropped on the table in front of me. I pulled myself out of my head and stared blankly at my father. He narrowed his at me sternly.
"You need to eat Kira," he ordered.
I rolled my eyes and pushed the plate away. Eat? What difference would it make if I did? It wasn't like I needed to stay healthy. I wanted to die.
I stood from the table, my body numb. It was a daily throbbing that I'd become accustomed to. The only thing that numbed the ache was liquor; all sorts of liquor.
"Kirabo," dad warned, using my full name, "If you don't eat, you're just going to waste away into nothing. All you do now is sleep and go to the bar."
His Nigerian accent was thick on his words; an indication that he was angry and worried. At the moment, I couldn't find it in me to care. I looked at him blankly again before quickly leaving the kitchen and then the house altogether.
Eyes crawled over my body as I made my way through the streets of the pack. I looked like shit, I knew that; I hadn't combed my hair in days and I tattooed myself with a pair of jeans and one of Zack's shirts that he'd given me.
I hated the pity that they sent my way through the pack link. They were all there that night, when Zack Salvador, our future Alpha and my mate, rejected me for Victoria Nelson.
I scowled to myself and urged my feet to move faster. I didn't care that I was grounded. Mom strictly ordered me not to leave pack grounds but what was the use? A familiar scent surrounded me and I looked up blankly.hardest
Brown eyes met my own. She looked well. Her 6 foot frame towered over me and her dyed blue was up in a ponytail, exposing her neck where Zack's mark sat on her pale, milky skin.
My heart sunk into my stomach and my heart folded in on itself. He sure moved on fast. Then again, Victoria was always considered the beautiful one between us, I shouldn't have been surprised that he'd choose her over me. I tried to tell myself that I shouldn't be bitter but I was.
It wasn't fair that she got everything she wanted. And she wanted everything I wanted.
She smiled at me, "Hi, Kira."
I scoffed and marched passed her. Why was she talking to me? I blocked her number and removed her from all my accounts. Couldn't she read the writing on the wall? I wanted nothing to do with her.
