Emerald

The silence of everyone standing there making space for me to walk through. Axel kept his eyes on me as my anxiety got the best of me.

I walk forward as I looked back at my parents walking up the long flight of stairs. My eyes stood focus on him as I finally reached to him.

Alpha Kayden kept his lips in a straight line. I grabbed a hold of Axel hands as sparks flew throughout my body. Our eyes locked as he kept his hand's intertwined with mines.

I looked up trying to avoid everyone's eye contact. Probably shocked that the two people who absolutely hate eachother ends up being the mates.

Good one Moon goddess.

I lifted my head held high as Alpha Kayden claps his hands. "The daughter of my good ol' friend Hayden Stone is My son's mate. Please give a hand for Emerald Stone." He announced to everyone.

I could feel Lindsey eyes throwing daggers at me through the crowd. Everyone slowly gathered the hands and clapped very loudly.

"Now let us enjoy the party!" He shouts as I look the other way feeling my hands shake.

"We have to find a way where this hatred for one another can bypass." Axel squeezes my hands as he says this.

I look up to him confused if whether he could be trusted. "I'm not going to go through with this mate process if you have a girlfriend. That'll basically make you a cheater." I whispered as he walks me to the backyard.

The beautiful garden full of red roses with a path full of little lights. "My priorities is to my pack. Lindsey and I weren't even official. There's no need to breakup she should know where she stands." Axel shrugs while looking at me.

Men are just men..

"To you it was nothing but to her it might have been more." I bitterly say while snatching my arm away from his hold.

"Seriously? She knew what she was getting herself into when she dealt with me." He adds. I shook my head as I hug myself while staring at him.

"I can't believe the moon goddess paired me with you." I sigh.

"Fine if you want me to properly breakup with the girl I will." Axel roll his eyes.

"You think this is some sort of joke?" I angrily asked as I backed away from him. His face softens as he see my reaction to his jokes.

"You just can't do that!" I yell at him while poking at his chest. "Why can't men just respect women!" I began to breathe really fast.

"Woah calm down Emerald." Axel says while rubbing my back. I flinched away from him as my face scrunched up. "Don't touch me." I panicked as I pick the bottom of my dress running back inside the mansion.

Everyone were dancing and laughing as I look at the reality of it all. These are masks that everyone are wearing happiness is never true.

"Well we're going to miss you kiddo." Mother says as she walks up to me I look at her confused. "Mother there's no missing me." I explained to her as she had one single tear drop falling down her face.

"You're staying with them starting today." Mother explains as I shook my head. "No no you did not tell me it was today." I argued back as I cling onto her.

"Your cousin and Father will bring all of your things here tomorrow. You're going to make an amazing Luna." Mother kisses the top of my head.

"Please don't." I begged her as everyone begins to walk out of the party. Mother held my face gently. "You are the best thing that's ever happened between your father and I. I won't ever abandon you." She whispers in my ear.

Just like that I watch my mother leave with my cousin and Father. I stare at her leave slowly as I felt completely empty. I'm left alone with strangers.

"Come on dear I'll show you where your room will be." Luna viola says as she helps me stand up. "I placed a pair of undergarments and pajama set on the bed." She gently says to me as we walk up the long stairs.

"You and Axel share a bathroom. The rooms are connected is best this way so the mating process could begin." She says to me as I bit my inner cheek. I rather be dead then mate with Axel.

'Well technically you are dead' My inner thoughts say.

Once she open the room I stare at it in awe. The room is completely dark the huge bed covered in black duvets. The huge diamond chandelier above the bed with a small table next to it with chairs. I fell in love with the huge windows across the room.

"I'll let you settle yourself in." She says before closing the door on her way out. My fingers pass through the bed as my eyes widened at the red lingerie laying on the bed.

I picked up the small piece of item. I noticed the towel under it causing me to smack my forehead. This is not a pajama set.

I picked it up as I drag myself into the bathroom to find Axel brushing his teeth shirtless. I coughed making him look up. "Excuse you." His eyebrows raise as he looks over to me.

"Your excused." Axel says with a little of toothpaste spitting out of his mouth. The toothpaste from his mouth landed right on my forehead.

I froze as I look in the mirror letting out a curling scream. "NOOOOO IM GOING TO BE COVERED IN YOUR DISEASE NOW!" I cried out as I rush to the other sink rinsing off my face.

"I don't have a disease emerald." He chuckles. "Get out so I can shower." I demanded as I couldn't help but stare at his abs.

"Me get out of my bathroom?" He angrily asks as i bit my bottom lip. "This is also my bathroom for now on." I sighed already feeling extremely uncomfortable as it is.

He pinched the bridge of his nose before looking right back at me. "Fine." He says before rinsing his mouth out and exiting the bathroom.

I quickly locked the doors as I began to look under the sink. "Where's the cleaning supplies?" I whispered.

I found a scrub, bleach, and disinfectant spray. "Time to scrub this tub clean." I cringed.

Wish me luck.
