"So, I guess they want me back."
"They aren't getting you. I don't know why they want you back so bad it's not like they care about you."
"Probably afraid I'll come back for revenge."
"Would you?"
"No, I want to leave that behind me."
"That is a good choice. Revenge never helps anything. It only makes more problems."
"Yeah I've heard the stories."
"Let's take a walk around."
He showed me all these different places and people. We stopped by Fay and I talked to her for a few minutes. It starts to get late so we eat and head to our room.
"Are you scared that they will take you back?"
"No because I have you as my mate and a loving pack that cares for me."
"I'm glad you're not scared. Tomorrow we start training and I want to introduce you to the pack as my mate."
"I can't wait."
I get ready, snuggle up beside him, and soon fall asleep."
*Dream state* "Please stop!" "Shut up runt." I laid there helplessly as they kicked me and threw punches my way. When they were done, I couldn't move and they just laughed about it. "She is nothing. Worthless. Runt. She is pathetic. No one will love her." I had to lay there and listen to the insults while my body tried to heal enough for me to move. *end dream state*
"Hey, are you okay?"
"Yeah, just a bad dream."
"About what?"
"My past."
"It's because they showed up right? They brought bad memories back."
"Yeah, but it's fine. They are just dreams and they can't hurt me. Just like my old pack can't hurt me anymore."
"That's right. Now let's eat breakfast and then we'll start with some basic training."
I get up and put on some lose clothing, then I go see what we are having for breakfast. I walk in to see he is cooking a little bit a bacon, some small pancakes, and a couple eggs.
"Smells amazing."
"Thank you. I taught myself how to cook."
"I know how to cook simple things that don't require too much."
"Maybe some other time I could teach you."
"I would like that."
After we got done eating he took me to a quite clearing to train. He taught me how to block different types of simple attacks. Then he moved on to teach me how to preform simple attacks while he blocked. He taught me how to surprise my opponent if they tried to pin me down. After that he said it was time for a break and some lunch. Then I took a shower and changed into something nicer.
"Are you ready?"
"As I'll ever be, I guess."
"Let's go."
He called the pack to the field and waited till they were all here and quiet.
"I called you all here because I have an important announcement to make. I have found my mate. Her name is Hazel and I love her."
"Hi. I'm Hazel."
"I expect you to treat her with respect like you would to me."
"You shouldn't have a runt as a mate. You make this pack look weak. You should send her back to where she came from."
There were whispers and glances from the pack.
"She is my mate that the moon goddess chose for me. If she wasn't supposed to be my mate, then the moon goddess wouldn't have put us together."
"Can't you see it was a mistake! Therefore, the moon goddess allows rejection because she knows that she messed up sometimes."
People were getting rallied up and the whispers were continuing.
"I would never reject my mate. Would any of you, reject your mate?"
The whispering stopped and everyone separated. Some stood near Jasper's father while the rest stood away from him. The ones with Jasper's father were unmated makes while the other side was people who had mates. Unfortunately, there were more unmated males than ones that did have mate's.
"See more agree with me that you shouldn't have a runt for a mate."
"You all are free to leave. No one is keeping you here. I will NOT reject my mate because you think she is weak." All the sudden...
Cliff hanger! Hope you enjoyed. Catch you in the next chapter.
