“What? Just because I can't have you right now, doesn't mean I'm okay with him having you.” 
― Cora Carmack, Losing It

 

MALORY P.O.V                                

“He can’t just ask her to leave with him like that” Dada said with a deep frown.

“He is her mate and he has a whole pack to run. He obviously will need her there” Uncle Matt, Zach’s father said to dada.

“But-”

“You did the same with Kerry” Uncle Matt said cutting off whatever dada had to say.

Dada gritted his teeth and ran a hand through his dark hair. “I bet her old man cursed me to face the same thing he did” Dada said, with old man here referring to my gramps. Uncle Matt and Zach began laughing when he said that.

We were in the living room of my house while mama and Aunt Lynne were cooking dinner for us and also Cortez, who right now has gone somewhere with Tyson.

“She is just a child” dada said looking at me and my lower lip trembled. He placed one of his arms around my shoulders and pulled me closer to his chest.  “She can’t handle it there well. Let her be here until she completes her education” dada reasoned while a fat tear rolled down my cheek. As soon as I returned home from woods, I found Cortez telling my parents that he is going to take me with him to his pack, tonight.

“Malcolm, Lory is twenty now. You had asked Kerry to move in with you when she was seventeen” dada’s brother pointed out and dada muttered something under his breath.

“Lory doesn’t want to go with him either” dada said and Uncle Matt looked at me, startled.

“Lory?” Uncle Matt called me and I looked at him. “Does your wolf agrees with that?” he asked me.

I want my mate, my wolf growled inside me. She wanted to go with him to Cortez’s pack. She loved her parents too but for her, her first preference is her mate as soon as she met him.

“No” I said and Uncle Matt nodded.

“You have to let her go, Malcolm. He is her mate” Uncle Matt said to his elder brother.

“Why tonight?” dada asked and I pulled away from the hug.

“Only Lory can convince him to change his mind” Uncle Matt said, his green eyes filled with sympathy for me.

“I am not going tonight” I told them and all of them looked at me startled. I couldn’t go like this, all of a sudden. I am his mate but he can’t just order me to come with him. I am leaving my pack and my family to live with him, for the rest of my life. I deserve to say a proper goodbye to my love ones.

No matter what, I am going to talk to Cortez and convince him about this. I will definitely not faint.

I was sitting in the stairs of our porch along with Mumbles and eating chips. It was around seven in the evening and my parents had gone to Zach’s house, to give me some alone time to convince Cortez, who was going to come soon.
