Chapter 157
Logan's POV
Since that little episode between Akira, me, and Katerina, three days ago, I haven't been to the office, I have spent much of my time at the Packhouse for the last three days. Since my union with Katerina was just around the corner. Katerina wanted us to have our union the same day as Akira's party but I didn't want that because I planned on spending the entire day watching the TV since it was going to be stream life and I didn't want to miss any details of the party of the only female, I love and will always love.
I moved my hand to my neck where our mate Mark was resting before I stupidly gave the rejection, I missed Akira but I knew this was the best, she might hate me for all the things I said to her but it's better this way.
My eyes tilted to the couch Akira had sat on the last time she was here at my place, that was the exact spot she was sitting. Suddenly I felt strange and I wanted her here. I know I shouldn't be longing for her but I can't help it, I want her in my arms, I just want to cuddle her at night, hear her laughter and the silly jokes that she usually gives. Her tantrum was one thing that brought joy to me.
I know it's just Akira who could keep my heart beating and my heart was hankering for her, not just me but my wolf, I couldn't forget what my wolf did to me the day I kissed Katerina in front of Akira, he hated the pains I gave her, so he throws me into one, forcing himself out, and throwing my human form in front of a moving vehicle, if the driver wasn't a werewolf and wasn't fast to bring his car to a halt, only the goddess know if it was a moving vehicle that would had killed me and not my disease.
I opened my mind and asked Meredith to come to the mansion immediately after I arrived here but it was more than ten minutes, and he was still nowhere in sight. I was about to mind-link him again when his voice came up. "Alpha, you are back?" He asked as he pulled the door having that surprised look, I know he wasn't expecting me to be there.
"You should call Akira, and tell her to get me a file from the office, I need it urgently." I said ignoring his questions but he stared at me blankly, "Didn't you hear me?" I growl as frustration and desperation mix in my system.
"I did Alpha, but we can't do that anymore."
"What the fuck do you mean you can't?" My voice was husky and I was glaring at Meredith already.
"I am sorry Alpha but she resigned two days ago." My jaw tightened my fist clenched as my nostrils flared, I just couldn't believe what I was hearing.
"And who the fuck signed her letter because the last time I checked, her resignation letter was supposed to be signed by me?" I will admit that things had been Rocky between us but we didn't talk about her moving out of the company, I was expecting to see her every day at the office for the remaining part of my miserable life, even if we didn't have any relationship and she didn't end up mine, I will be contented with just seeing her around and breathing the same air with her each passing day before I finally had my last breath.
"I thought you said I should go ahead and sign it on your behalf?"
"What? When?"
"It was the morning you left for the Packhouse, that I mindlink..."
"What the fuck?" I couldn't let him finish because I could remember, him talking about a document and I didn't even allow him to finish before giving him the approval, and it didn't even occur to me that Akira would think of doing that, I was thinking I could talk to the Shan group, that they should let Akira manage their shares in our company but fuck, she beat me to this. I thought she said she loved me why quit without even a fight?
"Alpha, I thought you wanted her gone, so why are you acting like she is a big loss?"
"Meredith, are you trying to piss me up right now?" My voice hitches before I stand from the couch.
"Alpha..."
"I want to be left alone," I said not looking at him before walking towards the hallway. "You should tell Austin that he is responsible for watching Akira 24/7."
"But alpha that is part of my..."
"It's no longer your duty, move to something else, like the Packhouse, you should go back to the Pack, I think you should be the one supervising the construction site and you are leaving first thing tomorrow." I saw his face fall pale and I knew that reaction, stalking Akira would give him access to his mate, he could watch her as well. Taking that away from him is like taking the opportunity for him to be with his mate from afar.
I wanted him to feel what I felt, this emptiness that he had created in my heart because he had been stupid. He should also feel it and I guess he could understand. "Alpha please, I can't stay away from..."
"You can't stay away from Akira? Are you interested in her?" My voice came out guttural and I saw the frustration visible on his face, I knew my beta would never double-cross me. I only just want to annoy the shit out of him, the same way he did me dirty.
"Alpha, you know I can't do that, I have never harbored such a thought it's just that..."
"This conversation is over, and I don't want to hear anything about it." I interrupted him, not waiting for him to say another word before I walked away, I banged the door behind me as soon as I entered my room. "Fuck you all, for messing with my life," I growl hitting the wall, my knuckles are already bleeding.
I grabbed my laptop that was lying on the table and pressed the Power button. The wallpaper was me and Akira. We were both smiling. We were happy those times, we spent together, and knowing that she is no longer here, left me with a pang in my heart.
For some odd reason, I have always transferred pictures and videos Akira used my phone to snap into my laptop.
I screw through the photos section, only to see pictures of me and Akira but 85% were Akira's. We've been together in less than four months yet, it seems we have built strong memories that can't be erased.
Then I move to the video section. "Ha ha... Akira what are you wearing?" I asked as soon as she came out from the wardrobe wearing a stripper costume with hilarious makeup. She looks angelic and she makes me feel horny. She was already doing the poll dance when I started filming.
"I thought I could do the same for you, you are not the only one good at striptease." She wink at me.
"How did you even come up with all these hilarious ideas?"
"I have ten senses..."
"I thought it was six?"
"That is because I am a witch, so I sure should have more than you mere mortal." She winked at me, curling her legs around the poll while she threw her head behind staring at me, upside down, and winked at me.
With her hair drop, she was adorable. "Now I know," I mouthed and she giggled, "A sexy stripper witch."
"Can you stop filming, turned the camera away." She pretends to scowl, causing her to become more alluring.
"I thought you were doing these for me? So, let me have my moment." I tease her and she giggles.
"Fine enjoy your moment." Her voice softened and her voice turned serious. She stopped dancing and smiled at me sweetly before she walked slowly to me. The tears welled up in my eyes. "I know that our union is somehow awkward, a human and a werewolf but I want to celebrate our first three months of us being a couple, happy three months of dating." It was then I saw the cake on the other side of the room, she pulled my hand and made me walk towards it.
"Thank you..."
"I am happy to be with you, that only is enough for me, just don't leave me."
"I am not leaving you, never..." I stress the last word never, and she giggles and I think I kissed her because the camera was no longer focused on her.
And so were all the other videos, I was about to watch another when my phone rang, I pressed the answering button, my eyes bulged. "What the fuck?"
