My Unwanted Soul

Chapter 4

My brief lapse of judgement from my wolf caused Angel to be a little more on me the past two days. When we slept, he let his arm drape over my stomach. I could never pry it off so I just gave up and slept under it. I had to admit, his warmth was comforting and gave me the best sleep of my life.

My wolf was trying so hard to get me to let her take over, it was draining my energy trying to fight her. She wanted so desperately to let her accept our mate. It was started to take a toll on me. I felt sick, all the time and my eyes had dark bags under them.

Angel was constantly at my side, begging me to tell him how he could help me. But the only way was for me to truest accept him and I don't think I could do it. I asked him to give me some alone time. He sulked and left the room.

I ,slowly, walked to my drawers and sighed through them for the old journal that Alpha Steel had given me. I sat on the bed and opened it.

'Dear diary,
It's been a week since I rejected Alonso. My heart and wolf weeps for me to take him in. But my head and myself, are against him. I am a strong woman, I am my own woman. I do not need a man to complete me, no matter what the moon goddess and my father tell me'

So, she was a little bit like me, so what? Although She had her father and I didn't. I sighed and skipped around the pages, landing on the middle of the journal and read.

'Dear diary,
I am weak. I'm not the strong woman I once was. My chest hurts and sometimes it's as if I can't breathe. My wolf doesn't fight with me anymore, she's given up. I can feel her dying and slowly, that is killing me. Alonso has left, I rejected him and he's gone. I fear I've made a mistake. I know that I'm hurt, I don't know how much longer I will last.'

The date markings on the page tell me that this was a two months from meeting her mate and one month from rejecting him. It's almost as if I could see her. She's weak and fragile, growing more weak as the days pass. It scares me, because I think I'm strong. I think I don't need a man to survive.

I get this pain in my chest and drop the book from my hands, clutching my chest. I let out a pained scream.

Quickly, I force myself to stand up and run downstairs. I follow to where it makes my chest hurt the most. I burst outside and into the woods, sprinting at full speed. What is going on?

I enter a clearing, alpha Dominick and his pack are fighting rogues. I search for Angel. My eyes land on his wolf fighting two rogues. His side is gashed open and blood drips from him but he continues to fight.

I whimper and I knew I had to let Luna take over. Within seconds, I'm in my wolf form and I fly over to Angel. I grab one of the wolfs by their neck. So much anger consumed me that I don't even hesitate. I let my jaws clamp down on the wolfs neck and I don't stop til I feel the wolfs body go lifeless.

Gently, I set the body down and turn to look at Angel, still fighting with the other wolf. The rogue is treating Angel like a game. He repeatedly touches his wound and almost laughed huskily in his wolf form. I can feel angels pain and it just fuels my anger.

I fly onto the wolf and he turns and bites my right leg. I whimper but still hold him down. I look at Angel, because I couldn't stomachs killing someone else. He nods his big head and stalks over.

In what seems like an instant, the wolf is on the floor, completely lifeless. I look around to see the damage. But I now see why alpha Dominick is so powerful. Not a single wolf from his pack is dead but every single rogue, but one is not.

I turn back to Angel and whimper, nudging my nose to his nose. I can feel his pain and it hurts me deeply. He whines and phases back. I freeze as I catch hold of his gorgeous bare body.
