Tessa's POV
We finally got back to the house. Night had fallen. My mate still hadn't said anything to me. It saddened me but this is what I wanted right? This was for the best.
We got out of the car and we went inside. My mate went straight to his office and I was left standing by the door. I sighed.
I decided to go up to my room. I held the box Regina gave me carefully. I put it inside a drawer. What to do now. I was really hungry and tired.
I should take a shower and go downstairs and make dinner. Maybe my mate and I can talk about what's going to happen.
I took a quick shower and I slipped on some white pajama shorts and a black tank top. I threw my hair in a bun and I slipped on some socks and I headed downstairs.
What to cook. I didn't know what he liked. I'd decided to make some steak with steamed vegetables and salad. I got to work.
After two hours I was finally done. I set the table then I set the food on the table and then I went to call my mate. I hope he doesn't refuse my offer.
I made my way to his office. I knew he knew I was standing out here. Trying to gather up some courage. I took a few deep breaths and I opened the door.
"I made dinner." I say and he stares at me.
"Would you care to join me?" I tell him nervously.
"I'll be there in a few minutes. " He says coldly and I nod.
I walk out of the room and I shut the door behind me. I went to the kitchen and I sat down at the table. Waiting for him. 10 minutes later he walked in.
He sat down at the head of the table beside me. We ate in silence and it was really awkward. We both hardly touched our plates.
I pushed my plate aside and I took a sip of water. My mate did the same. We remained in silence for a few more minutes. I decided I should speak up.
"So I've been thinking. I know this isn't easy on you. But I have to do this. This is the only thing I have left from my parents. You can't take the one thing that's left of them." I tell him. He says nothing.
"I'm going to drink it tonight. I know I can handle this. I'm strong enough. I just want you to know that. So yeah." I say. He stands up to leave.
"Where are you going?" I ask him.
"I am not going to listen to this bullshit Tessa." He yells.
"I am not asking for your approval. I'm telling you." I tell him.
"Your so selfish Tessa. For a minute I thought you made this dinner as an apology for how you've been pushing me away for the past month. For making decisions without me. But you just want to do whatever you want." He says angrily.
"I'm not selfish. You are for trying to stop me." I tell him.
"Your my mate. Your asking me to allow you to end your life. You honestly think this just affects you. But it doesn't. I have to protect you and a pack. I have so much on my shoulders and you want to add more to that. Instead of making things easier for me." He says.
"Sorry I'm such a burden on you." I spit at him.
"Why are you trying to fight with me. I am worried about keeping you alive. Keeping my pack alive. I am putting them in danger for you." He says sadly.
"Then I'll get out of your hair." I say.
"That would make everything a whole lot better for you. Wouldn't it Tessa? You don't care about me. I used to think your lying just to push me away. But now I know you truly don't feel anything towards me. That I am nothing and I will always be nothing to you. I'm just your bodyguard no more no less. You hate me , you can't even say my name. But that's okay. I'm willing to be nothing to you just so you wouldn't leave me. I know I won't be able to bear it, but it's what you want. And you always come first, right Tessa?" He says and his eyes were shining with unshed tears.
I felt like my heart had shattered to a million tiny pieces and nothing would be able to fix it. I was in tears by the time he finished. I was a selfish bitch. I never thought how this was going to affect him and the pack.
"Hunter,..." I say but he raises his hand to stop me.
"Don't Tessa. Your free to do whatever you want, it's your life. I mean who am I to tell you what to do, right?" He says and the ache in my heart gets worst. I wanted to
