Masquerade Mate

Masquerade Mate: Chapter 10

It's the sweet minty taste of his lips and the warm embrace of his muscular arms that kept me in place. Urging me to devour his lips as he did mine. Everything seemed soo perfect. We are perfect together. Our wolves reveling at the feel of the other, moans of approval constantly sounding in the air. His hand slowly moved from the back of my neck, down my side to the hem of my dress where he slowly slid his hand up. Hesitant, as if waiting for my approval. But all I could focus on was the feel of him under my hands. The erratic beating of his heart making my breath hitch. I couldn't deny the fact that I wanted him any longer but yet I couldn't exactly ignore the constant nagging at the back of my mind reminding me of all he'd done.

And that was all it took.

One memory to make this haze drop.

"I'm rejecting you as my mate."

It was as if an ice cold bucket had suddenly been poured on me and I found the heat of passion to have disappeared all together. I pulled away, wiping at my lips harshly as I back away from Kristoff.

"What's wrong?" He reached to me and I swatted his hand away.

"Don't touch me." I said threw gritted teeth. "You disgust me. You think that this is just gonna be easy, don't you? That I'm just gonna come to your every call? Stop trying to play with my emotions because it's obvious that since you didn't want me then that you most definently don't want me now. So just do us both a favor and LEAVE ME ALONE!!"

Angrily I stomped to the door, pulled it open, and motioned for him to leave my room.

"I....I don't understand. I th-thought we could work this out? That there could be an Us again."

"Work out what? There's nothing here. There isn't an Us! I want NOTHING to do with YOU."

"No. No! I'm not giving you up! Do you hear me, I'm not giving up. I wasted a year of my life thinking I could be without you but I couldn't........and now that I finally have you by my side I'll never let you go again. So you better fucking prepare yourself Alice."

With that said he left me alone in the room in a stunned silence. I sat on my bed, holding my face between my hands as I mulled over what I'd just been told.

I'm not giving up....

A part of me was pleased with our mates decision but the other part was truly angry. I mean, what the hell is wrong with this guy? How do you reject your mate and then act as if everything will be normal? You don't!

I stood up walking to the large window in the room and starring out into the garden in the back of the castle. It was a gorgeous sight truly.

When we were just kids the girls and I would run for hours in the Alpha Home garden. It was a never ending dream of beauty and mysteries. Most times the Alpha Female came out and ran around with us all. Then she'd take us inside afterwards and get us all dressed up in elegant dresses and have us over for dinner.
One day, she pulled me apart from Jen and Melanie and took me up to her favorite room in the house. It had to be the smallest room, but she was proud of it none the less. Inside was an art studio that she personally maintained. Only a handful of people  were actually permitted in and just being there had me ecstatic. She sat me in a chair and asked me to close my eyes then placed something on my head.

"Alright open them Darling." She drawled.

Slowly I opened my eyes to the mirror in front of me, shocked at what I saw.

I was wearing a tiara.

It was beautifully carved in gold, jewels decorating the intricate piece. I was instantly in love with the thing.

"I'm a princess." I grinned.

"One day you will rule a great kingdom darling."

"Really!" I clapped my hands and pretended to wave to all my loyal subjects.

"Your too young to truly understand now but Alice your calling is greater than anyone I have ever encountered before. You will be the light admist the darkness." She smiled, removing the tiara from my head. "Until then I'll keep this in safe keeping."

Her words just seemed to be a twisted joke now. A princess? Yeah right! More like the Kings moron. The laughing stock of everyone.

Especially Kristoff.

For the past year I've been the desperate chick but now.....

Now I would come out on top.
