Finding You

Not Mine

Braydon

I had waited for Rachel after school who was a no show.  We had a lot to discuss. 

Which couldn't wait any longer so I had called her.

She had picked up on the third ring, "Rachel."

Her breathing was erratic, "Why are you out of breath?"

"Braydon."  She had spoken my name making Seff purr.  Even though he had told not too long ago to teacher Amy about our decisions, he couldn't help but swoon every time he hears Rachel's voice. 

"Where are you, we were suppose to meet."

"I'm sorry but um..something came up and well I'll just see you tonight."  She seemed out of breath but I couldn't feel that she was cheating on me again.

"Good because we have to talk about something."

"Oh, really what about."

"I rather talk about this in person."  Rejecting your mate can not be done over the phone, it has to be done face to face.

"Sure."  Uncertainty evident in her voice.  "I have to go, I'll see you later."

Hanging up the phone I drove home only to be greeted by my father.

"Son welcome home, how was school."

I shrugged my shoulder debating if I should tell him about my choices.

I mean it's not everyday where an Alpha rejects the Luna.  And my pack, I had already confirmed that Rachel is to be their Luna. How would the feel about having another Luna.

Thinking about teacher Amy, she would make a great Luna for my pack.  She is fierce, feisty, and damn right stubborn. About everything you see in a Luna she has. 

"School is the same."  Heading to my room I began to do my presentation while I wait for Rachel.

Once again the picture of the couple kept calling to me.  As I played with the ring that was around my neck, I didn't realized I had fallen to sleep, my head now flopping its way onto the desk.

"How could you."

"Love, I can...."

"You don't need to explain your self love."  Another woman latched herself to the young maiden's lover.

"Get away from him, he is mine." The young maiden growled.

"Tsk tsk tsk..."  The woman's eyes glowed red, "Now love, tell me who do you love more."

The man gazed upon her eyes, "You my love."

This broke the young maiden's heart, "How could you?"  Ripping on the ruby ring on her finger, she threw it at him causing it to hit the ground beneath his feet.

He didn't even blink nor hesitate.  No, he was too busy fawning over the woman who was clinging on to him.

"You are mine."  The woman spoke only for him to nod his head in submission.  "Say it."  The woman order.

"I am yours."

"Good now kiss me."  The young man kissed the woman while the woman stared, at the young maiden smirking to herself as if she had won.  The woman had always won, she had always gotten what she desired.

Furious as them two, the young maiden's eyes had sparkled in them.  Something broke that day, it was like something trampled what ever humanity she had left.  The piece that he had given her, it was damage beyond repair.
