Chapter 151
Akira's POV
I didn't know life could be so bitter, filled with pain, I thought Vida said the mate bond is stronger than anything, it wouldn't hurt me but here I was hurting, I was too shattered to even think of anything. I couldn't even contain the pain in my heart hearing those words from Wolfie.
I ran out after everything that he said, I thought he was going to run after me, call out to me, and pull me into his warm but no, Wolfie was done with me, whatever we had before was history, the rejection as taken place and he had forced me to accept it, I didn't want to but I have no choice but to accept it.
He pushed me away, he hurt me so bad that I wish that I had never met him. I wish my heart didn't even prickle a second for him, but my stupid heart has been hankering for him since I met him and even now that the stupid rejection had taken place, I still didn't have any iota of hatred in my heart for him but I know I should stop loving and move on.
As I run through the dark street, my eyes clouded with unshed tears, red-rimmed and hollow. My lips tremble, pressed tightly to stifle the sobs threatening to escape. My shoulders slumped as though I was carrying the weight of the world, my chest rising and falling with uneven breaths. My hands, trembling and clutching my exposed arms, as the wind kept hitting my skin, my soul shattered into pieces too sharp to hold as those words replayed in my head.
"Yes Akira, yes... I am breaking up with you, I don't want this anymore, I don't want to be mate to you, it is all a misunderstanding, I have someone that I love someone that is like me, a wolf and you know that you are not one, I want the rejection done now because you can't be my Luna, you are not strong enough to be my Luna... You aren't fit to be a Luna to me and Pack... You are a weak pathetic human..."
"Wolfie stop please, I don't have to be your Luna, I could just be your mate, just your mate and I will be okay with it but please don't reject me..."
"Stop Akira, this is all a mirage, we don't have a future together, there is no future between a wolf and a human, I am an alpha, not just any shifter. As an alpha, there are so many things that are required of me, and taking you as a Luna is not part of those requirements because you can't fulfill that one requirement that is at the top of the list of my obligations to the pack and my wolves..."
"What are those obligations? You could tell me, I could fulfill it and you don't have to reject me, just tell me what I will do, and I will do it. I will prove it, even if you want me to prove it to you."
"I, Alpha Logan Wolfie Stark of the Gold Moon Pack... "
"No! No! Wolfie! No please..." I rush to him, slamming my lips against his to stop him from taking those words. "Please stop..."
"... Reject you...You’re not what I need in a mate." My heart stopped when I realized that Wolfie wasn't joking or stopping.
My legs dropped to the floor as my hand slipped from his chest to his foot, I held his legs with trembling hands. "Wolfie please calm down, let's talk about this. Tell me what I should do."
"Akira Ross may the goddess sever this bond and bless us with a life that is blissful and love that we deserve..."
"Wolfie..."
"Accept my rejection..."
"No, I don't want that, I can't..."
"You should accept it, so the pain will stop..."
"Wolfie please, take it back, I promise to do anything you want..."
"No, just accept it and end your pain..." I shake my head but the pain becomes more, my lips tremble and I can no longer feel any solace in my body. My body was numb with pain.
"Stop being stubborn Akira, just accept the damn rejection."
"Will we still be friends when I accept your rejection?"
"You can keep your job but friends, we can't be friends we can only have employer and employee relationships nothing more nothing less. That is all I owe you, not my personal affairs..."
"I love you, Wolfie."
"Stop already, accept the rejection." I was still ready to persuade him maybe he could take back the rejection but I knew it was a dead end and the pain in my chest was becoming unbearable and I had to accept it.
"I accept your rejection..."
My head pounded, as I kept running, and when I turned the Manor wasn't in view anymore, I reached for my bracelet, that my cousin had given to me, I wanted to alert him but I aborted that, I didn't want him to be worried, and I don't want to risk his life driving at this time, so I reach for my phone, my trembling hands clutched my phone as though it were the only lifeline keeping me anchored.
I wiped my cheeks with my back palm, but the tears wouldn’t stop, since I met Wolfie, I had cried more than I cried when I was with my stepmother. They kept coming, hot and unruly, as if my soul had cracked open, spilling all the grief I tried so hard to contain. I pressed the phone to my ear, my fingers curling tightly around it, and waited for the familiar voice to pick up on the other end.
“Hey, Akira?” his voice was warm, tinged with concern. “What’s wrong? Why are you calling so late?”
A sob escaped my lips, loud and raw, and I immediately regretted it. I shouldn't be calling him, I felt like a user, and I only remember him when I was in pain, I wanted to end the call and tell him that it was a mistake but my pain and voice betrayed me. “Casper...” I choked out, my voice barely above a whisper. “I...I don’t know what to do.”
"Kira, slow down. What’s happening? Are you okay? Where are you?” Casper's words were sharp now, laced with urgency and worry.
I drew in a shuddering breath, trying to steady myself.
“I... He rejected me,” I said, my voice breaking as fresh tears spilled down my cheeks.
I could feel his pause on the other end was heavy, as though he needed a moment to process my words. “Who rejected you?” he asked, though he already knew the answer.
“Him,” I whispered, the word laced with bitterness and sorrow. “Wolfie...”
Taking Wolfie's name created a big vacuum in my heart and it’s more painful now, like a shard of glass lodged in my throat. It wasn’t just a word. It was a bond, a promise, a destiny I believed was mine to hold. Although I had no idea at first, what the bond and everything surrounding it was all about when I did, I cherished it, I held it close to my heart and I thought, Wolfie would do the same but I guess wrong, Wolfie isn't as smitten as I was.
Casper's sharp intake of breath crackled through the line. “That bastard,” he muttered under his breath. “What happened, Kira? Tell me everything and where you are.”
