My eyes were a bit heavy as i tried opening them only to be greeted by a surrounnding darkness. I let a frustrated groan as i tried to stand up but my body didn't let me move an inch making me realize how weak i am.

"Caias your awake"

I glance my direction to the corner of the room and saw a figure of someone leaning by the window but i couldn't clearly see who it was because it was wearing a long black cloak.

"What happened? who are you?"

My throat felt like i had swallowed a whole bottle of rum as my voice sounded a bit hoarse.

"I saw you laying on the ground at the forest on my way to Ryolite."

Forest? What was i doing in a forest?

Then it hit me, sudden scenes flashed before my eyes on what happened before i blacked out.

Kevon...
...
...
..
My mate...
...
...
...
Rejection...
...
...
...
He left...

I can feel how weak my wolf is right now, the absence of my mate weakens me and i'm afraid for whats going to happen to my wolf. Ever since i shifted i can't directly talk to my wolf like any ordinary wolf can but i can feel her inside me somewhere and i know she's still hanging on there.

Tears spilled down my face like a waterfall as i remembered the pain of what my mate put me through when he rejected me.

My whole life of waiting and hoping for a mate has lead to this. The moon goddess must have cursed me or just simply enjoys my sufferings as she made my whole life a misery.

First, she took my mother knowing she's the only family i have left. I wasn't even asking for a perfect nor comfortable life to live in, just being with my mother was already enough for me but the goddess above was cruel and left me broken.

Why!? What did i ever do to you!?

And now she gave me someone to lose, my soulmate.

It hurts.

Why did he not want me? is it because he can sense that i was an omega? or is it because i was such a weakling? did i dissapoint him?

Kevon, why?

The person standing by the window was taken a back as he heard me sobbing like a mess. I tried to push myself to sit down from the bed but my body just stumbled at the act of mine.

"Slow down there little caias, or you will fall"

He held up my shoulders as he lifted me up to properly sit down. As he inch closer i caught a glimpse of a red mark that was in a form of a crescent moon with a howling wolf in his left wrist.

"Where am i?"

This was not my room and i am most certain that this was not the Omega's Quarters. And i still couldn't see his face as it was pretty dark and the only light from the outside was coming from the window.

"Hush little caias, you still need to rest."

He place a hand to rubbed circles at my back to comfort me. My breathing started to calm down but the tears remained on falling.

"Who are you?"

I heard him took a deep breath before sitting on my side to face me but he's cloak was still covering his face.

"I will not harm you caias, i am here to help you. But you can not know who i am yet. "

Caias?
I am not very familiar with our native language specially because i was just an omega and we were not given the privilege of learning in an academy and the only Lyko words i know are the ones needed in cooking.

"Why?"

I know that he is a total stranger to me and i should not trust him but something tells me that i can trust him.

"In time you will know caias, but right now you need to rest"

He took my hand towards his lips as he kissed it. and it didn't affect me as much as how my mate affected me by just a single touch but it didn't feel uncomfortable either.

"Caias, i didn't know you were starving"

The man i still didn't know the name of, stood as if shock in front of me as i keep shoving food inside my mouth.

"imfnooot"

He still did not took off his cloak and it's kinda weird talking to him but it was comfortable at the same time. I feel at ease with him beside me.

I have been in bed for almost a day now and i have a lot of things running through my mind. First off, my mate rejected me and it still hurts and the pain is still inside me but whenever this cloak man is near me, the pain is bearable. Second, i haven't returned to the Quarters yet and i am certain that if i come back there they would chain me in the dungeon and they won't feed me for a month or worse than that. Third, i know Lily is gonna be worried sick about me and i don't know when will i see her again.

I sigh as i took a glance at the window and it was already noon as the sun was high from what i can see by the window.

"Cloak man, can i ask you what you were doing in the forest the day you found me?"

He put down his glass of water and i saw a smile form from his lips before he answered my question.

"I was looking for my sister"

Sister? he didn't look like he had a sister.

"Why were you looking for her in the forest?"

"I followed her scent in the forest"

That's weird, their was no one there when i roamed around well except me and-
I shoke my head at the thought of his name as it still brings bad memories to me.

"But i could have sworn no ones there, i could have smell if there was another scent in the forest."

I raise my brow at him as i crossed my arms.

"She was there, she even smelt like Caias"
