Alex POV

"Tell me what happened" he demanded. I froze for a split second but relaxed my body. If I looked tense, hell will break loose and all the demons will escape.

When did I become so dramatic?

I laughed inwardly at the reality of how our events turned out to be.
I felt confident that he's not going to get it out of me. But all the confidence I had built evaporated as I met his gaze. In that moment I wanted to run, to just run away. I  was the scared little girl again. Don't show any weakness.

Don't show any weakness!

That was what my father told me.

I sat up straighter and smiled. If only he knew what was hidden behind this smile. Tears and yelling ,shocked sobs and claw slashes were. I peeped at him through my lashes. It felt like he knew. He knew what was coming and asked for it. Brave soul.

"Why you ask ?" I raised my eyebrows looking at him with the best curiosity I could master.

He sighed softly and stood up from the leather chair. And walked towards his desk. He sat behind the giant wooden table on another leather chair and rummaged through his drawers. He took out white papers. A stack of files.

"I found theses" he handed me the stack of paper.

"You were looking for me" I acknowledged. I saw a photo of me when I was thirteen. And next to it was my full name,a description of me at the time. What pack I belonged to, who were my parents. If I had any siblings. I threw the file on his desk angrily and ran my tongue over my teeth.

"I didn't read anything I wanted to wait and see if it was okay to look"

"Really not even a glimpse ? I'm supposed to believe that" I frowned at him.

"I just looked at your full name" he said truthfully

"You could've asked me and I would've told you my full name, you might as well call my parents and tell them I'm still alive" I laughed mockingly.

"Would you ? Would you have told me the entire truth without denial and tricks ?" His jaw was ticking and his voice was angry.

"Yes! No, I don't know ! Maybe? " I yelled.

"A strong maybe" I repeated

"You weren't going to tell me" he stated.

"I wasn't going to okay !? But you didn't tell me anything about you did you?" I glared at him. This wasn't the conversation I had imagined us having when he told me to meet him in his office.

"That's because you didn't ask" he growled out.

"I'm sorry I didn't ask and I'm sorry you want to take this" I motioned between him and I "so fast and I can't keep up with you" I growled back.

"Listen I know you've probably waited for your mate since you were 16 I don't know how old you are-

"I'm 20"

"And I'm sorry that you had to end up with me, a rogue. And I'm sorry that I'm not what you expected. But I can't do anything about it" I sigh meaning every word I said.

"I don't want to fight with you, can you just give me a few minutes alone please" my voice was much more stronger then I felt. I was the verge of tears and everything hurts.

"Okay" He quietly said and exited his office.

I followed behind him and locked the door just in case. I settled in the leather couch in the corner.
I took a deep breath and calmed my racing heart. I couldn't keep my hands away from the files. I needed to see what was written after I disappeared but I was too scared to see the harsh words my parents would have written.
