Chapter 8

I stared open mouthed at him. Of course I knew who the Wolf Goddess was, everyone knew who she was, even humans. But to learn that he WOLF GODDESS herself chose me? That's a little hard to believe. Excuse me of If cant quite comprehend what Alpha Jed said. A little pinch to my arm brought me back into reality with a yelp. I looked at Xavier accusingly but he just returned a I'm-innocent look but I knew better than that. I let it go for now and directed my attention towards Jed who was looking at me expectantly.

"I-I honestly dont know what to say Alpha Jed, this is just a little too much to take in for me. I mean, it'll probably take me some time to just grasp your words let alone believe them. For years I've been convinced im nothing but useless and that even the dirt on the ground is more useful than me. And even if I didn't want to, those thoughts weaselled their way into my brain and stuck there. Why wouldn't they? That is all I've been hearing for years and that is what I have been taught to believe. Now suddenly, I'm being told that i'm beautiful, useful to you, that I'm a huge asset to your pack and the biggest of it, the Wolf Goddess herself chose me because I'm special. Obviously it'll be a little difficult for me to comprehend that. But trust me, since I've been here, there's been a huge change in me. You guys may not have noticed it but I definitely did. I'm more outgoing, confident and I even looked you all in the eye. I have never done that before without facing the consequences for it. So what I'm trying to say Jed is thank you. Thank you so much for believing in me. For trusting me. For letting me into your pack. For giving me a chance. Thank you.

Jed looked at me proudly after my small speech, " It's my pleasure Christina. You're right. I didn't know that accepting you into my pack has changed you that much. But I'm glad that you told me. Now tell me, what all are your powers? Is it true that Golden Werewolves have special powers? Or is it just a myth?" I couldn't help but smile at his excited questions. He was acting like a fangirl. I answered them the best I could.

After Satisfying Jed, me and Xavier went back to his room. I hesitantly twisted my fingers together. I wanted to ask Xavier something but I didn't know if it correct or not. I opened my mouth but immediately closed it. Xavier must have seen something on my face because he came and sat right beside me.

''What's wrong Princess? I know you want to say something so dont bother denying it", he said with a teasing tone.

I have him a small smile and tried to piece my thoughts together, "it's just that, I want to do something Xavier but I dont know if it's a good idea or not."

He smiled at me reassuringly, "Well why dont you tell me what it is? I'll help you with it okay? Just tell me what you want to do. Maybe it can work out in your favor."

"Well, I want to call Mason once. Only him, because it was him rejection that drove me over the edge. I dont want to go back to him or anything. I just want to see if he regrets rejecting me. I want to know if he regrets treating me like that because it might give me some type of closure.", I peeked at him form under my eyelashes to see him looking at me with a thoughtful expression.

"Well it's not something I like but I think you should go for it. Because if he regrets it, then you can go back and be with him. It might work out for you."

I gave him a horrified look, " Xavier we're talking about the man who rejected me. I'm not just about to go running into his arms just because he says he regretted rejecting me. Why knows if he's even speaking the truth? What if he humiliates me like that again? What-" He cut me off before I could continue.

"No think about it Christina. The happiness you get from being with your mate, you would never be able to get it anywhere else, with anyone ever again. If he honestly regrets rejecting you, which trust me you'll know if he does, then dont let your pride come in between. Dont let your pride destroy your chance at eternal happiness and unconditional love. Give him a chance if he regrets it. If he doesn't, well we'll cross that bride when we get there. But for now, just call him and see how it goes okay?". I pondered over his words for a minutes and decided to call Mason and get it over with. Just like ripping a bandaid off. As quickly as possible to minimize the pain.
