The Alphas REJECTED Assassin

I'm Back Bitches!

Chapter 4 *Nikolai POV*

“This life is what you make it. No matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends - they'll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they're your true best friends. Don't let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. And baby, I hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can't give up because if you give up, you'll never find your soul mate. You'll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're going to fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.”       ― Marilyn Monroe

Sometimes I wonder if the moon goddess purposely made Adelaide reject me and have my family and friends turn against me. I wish they actually took the time and heard my side of the story then making assumptions. I know I shouldn’t be running away from my problems, but I can’t face my tormentors until I kill the vampire that murdered my father eight years ago. I realize that I shouldn’t keep Bruno away from his daughter, but I just don’t want my baby to go through what I went through three years ago.  Something didn’t feel right today and I know I wasn’t the only one that could sense it; just as I was about to wake up my daughter Laure called me into her office. What could she possible want now? Walking through the hallways of Laure estate I felt as ease when I felt utter darkness wash through my veins; I shivered knowing that I was going to be the one who was having a bad weekend. Laure knows Aurélie need to be breastfed at a certain time; I walked in her office to see Bruno sitting across from Laure. She looked as pale as her walls, her eyes had no life in them, her movements was feeble and her hair looked like road kill. What the hell does Bruno have to do with assassin missions?

“There is no easy way to go around this Nikolai, but the council demanded that you return to your mother and stepfather land to train the wolves because it has come to their knowledge that the vampires are working with demons and fallen angels including Satan.” She said. No! I worked too damn hard to go back to that hell hole and face the people that killed me three years ago. I don’t care if the elders have to execute me in front of everyone for not following a direct order, but I will not standby and allow this to happen. “Nikolai this is something you cannot get away from. The elders have a reason for doing things and I don’t want you to go back to the sick bastards that broke you especially your mate, but you need answers that I couldn’t give you for the last two years. We leave tomorrow at noon.”

“The elders know what happened to me for the last five years of my life and they expect me to go back with open arms to the people that fucking ruined me.  I may never be happy with you again because you just gave them what they wanted. I want Aurélie to be watched over by your grandfather,” I whispered.

“The elders requested that you bring Aurélie as well,” while I and Laure was talking Bruno had the opportunity to slip out of the room. She walked over towards me and pulled me into a hug, when I started to cry; I haven’t cried in three years since I felt Adelaide mate with someone other than me.  I haven’t felt this hopeless since my father was murdered and I was blamed for it. I don’t know how long we’ve been standing here, but I felt Aurélie nearing Laure office. Aurélie ran inside the office wrapping her small fingers around my wrist; I picked her up resting Aurélie on my hip, I could see Bruno leaning against the door frame with a goofy smile on his face and I understood why he wanted to be in Aurélie life. Even though I won’t accept Bruno as the father of my child; Aurélie need him more than ever since I found out about the prophecy a year ago.
