Rejection Perfection (Incomplete)

Training

Nicole's Pov

It's been a week since I left. Liam and I have to keep moving because Nick keeps getting close to finding me. We were originally in Washington but now we're driving in Oklahoma, half way across the damn country. It was killing me doing this to Nick. I could feel his every emotion, which wasn't making my training any easier. His emotions were strong, influencing mine. So I couldn't control my dark side.

"I'm so fucking tired of this, you don't understand he's making me unstable. I can't control my feelings this way." It was true, I couldn't focus when all I could think about was him.

"Do you want to kill Stella or not? All this complaining is getting us nowhere. You already know what you have to do in order to learn." I knew exactly what I had to do.

"Yes, but do you understand the toll it will have on me? Turning off my emotions could ruin us all. I won't care about anything which means my dark side will be worse than ever."

"At this point you gotta do what you gotta do."

I stopped talking because he was right. In order to learn how to control my dark side I needed to be in control of my emotions. With Nicks feelings I knew I wouldn't be able to, so I have to do this.

We were driving in the forest preserve and all I could do was stare at the trees thinking. Trees, they've been through everything. Natural disasters, war, and death. They stand there and observe while we just drive past them taking them for granted.

I know what I have to do, it's crazy but it's the only thing that will save us all. I have to turn off my emotions.

"I'll do it."

"You know the spell?" Of course I knew the spell, it was one that I was forced to memorize since I was born. I closed my eyes and started to chant.

"Give me the power I call on to the. My ancestors I ask you to help me. Emotions they're for the weak. Turn them off and make me, numb. Perdona me, pero todo pasa por algo. Grito mi hermanos y hermanas. Dame fuerza."

With that I opened my eyes, lifeless. My eyes had gone dull and I felt nothing.

"you good?"

"Drive." I didn't want to talk, I wanted to get to the hideout and train. Killing Stella was the only thing I could think about. I may be emotionless but I still felt pure hate for her.

Xavier's Pov

It's been a week and no one has seen Nick nor Nicole. Nick has been rampaging through multiple towns across the country trying to find her. And Nicole, well no one really knows. It's killing me because I still love her, I probably always will and being here doing nothing, not knowing if she's safe is tearing me apart.

"Alpha, we can't just stay here doing nothing."

"What else is there to do? Nick is already searching for her, we must stay here and wait."

"Actually Nick is back."

"Wait what?" I got up and ran outside and sure enough he was standing outside talking to his guards.

"Nick, what the hell? Why are you back without Nicole?"

"It is none of your concern. I'm close to finding her."

"Are you fucking serious? Is that all you have to say? She could literally be god knows where and that's all you have to say." I was pushing Nick with each word I said.
