Chapter 6 *Nikolai POV*
“If you're going to try, go all the way. Otherwise, don't even start. This could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives and maybe even your mind. It could mean not eating for three or four days. It could mean freezing on a park bench. It could mean jail. It could mean derision. It could mean mockery--isolation. Isolation is the gift. All the others are a test of your endurance, of how much you really want to do it. And, you'll do it, despite rejection and the worst odds. And it will be better than anything else you can imagine. If you're going to try, go all the way. There is no other feeling like that. You will be alone with the gods, and the nights will flame with fire. You will ride life straight to perfect laughter. It's the only good fight there is.”
― Charles Bukowski, Factotum
Two days later…
I was hoping that the mate bond would be broken by now, but since the elders on the council took forever to arrive in Maine; we had to make arrangements for the ceremony to be held today. There was something in the back of my mind telling me that I shouldn’t go through with this right away but it had to be done I can’t constantly be around someone that mated to someone outside of the mate bond. However, I’m surprised that the council didn’t take Adelaide rightful place as Alpha to a more suitable candidate but knowing the council they gave her a second chance to redeem herself and allowed the mating with the pack slut which made me fucking mad, but I’m over it now.
I sat on the treetop of my father tree and watched as the birds peacefully flew by wanting nothing but comfort from their own kind. I wish I was accepted three years ago by everyone so this wouldn’t have happen. Two days ago I almost caught my father murder, but somehow she evaded coming face to face with me and I couldn’t understand why; however things have had a drastic change now I can sense when she is near which scares the hell out of me. I stiffened when I smelt a familiar scent of pinecones and mint, I know I’m breaking something that her moon goddess gave us but after everything they have put me through I can’t go back to that life when I have a daughter to think about. I knew that Adelaide wolf had taken over and wanted to talk to me yet I couldn’t wrap my head around Onyx still loving me as a mate especially after they mated with a pack whore three years ago. I jumped down from the tree top and watched her come over to me, crashing her fury body onto mines, I will always love Onyx even though her human didn’t want me anymore, I wrapped my arms around her neck and felt her icy tears against the nap of my neck.
“I’m sorry you’re losing your mate Onyx but this isn’t working anymore, I can’t force Adelaide to love me when I’m engaged to Laure but I want you to remember that I will always love you Onyx no matter what happens even though we’re breaking the mate bond we still have formed a bond that will last for an eternity.” She looked at me with so much love it broke my heart but I can’t show my weakness I am the Alpha Rejected Assassin and a good one at that I can’t let anyone know that she was my only weakness and I did the only thing I could and walked away from my mate. I heard her howls from a far and to get my mind off of her I needed to hunt. I ran through the forest at lightning speed to get away from my unconscious mind. I sensed a few rouges and vampires heading my way and I took the opportunity to glamour the forest to kill them off one by one. I killed 40 vampires and 25 rouges in the last twenty five minutes and I started to feel better about breaking the mate bond. I walked back to the pack house covered in blood but I stopped in my tracks when I saw elder Johnson. Aww Shit! I’m in trouble now. After a year of training elder Jackson took me on as her own daughter and I was grateful to have a mother figure around but as soon as they sent me back to this hell hole I have ignored elder Jackson for a few day and I know I will have hell to pay.
