Chapter 079
Logan's POV
"Meredith?" I growl, ruffling my hair, I can never do that to Akira, she is too innocent to do that to her. "You don't think that I am that evil to fuck Katerina when Akira still has my mark? Do you?" I squint my eyes.
"I don't know and No, don't call me, because from all your actions only one taught is in my head. Unless you are saying you are ready to keep her and forget about Katerina,"
"No oh, I am not saying that,"
"Then what are you saying? Make me understand because you and I know she can't give you an heir and you needed one and it's obvious you didn't want to reject her,"
"I didn't say I don't want to reject her."
"Then when are you going to reject her, tonight? Tomorrow? The day after tomorrow? Next week? Next month?" I parted my lips and shut them immediately before I ruffled my hair. "You love her right?"
"I didn't say so," I said standing from the couch in my office and moving to the window.
"Then what did you say, the point is she is a human and she can't bear you a pup, and the pack needs one, we don't have that luxury of time?"
"Meredith, what changed about her, she is still that girl that you told me to give a chance. You were the one saying having a human mate it's not all bad, you said that right here and there, so why the sudden hatred? Now that I am giving her a chance, I am following your advice and now you are criticizing me for the same thing that you advised me on, I don't understand you," I scoffed.
"I don't hate her, I only don't want you to hurt her, as harsh as my words sound the fact remains, that I am looking out for her. Even if you think that I am turning into a hater. Logan, dragging her into our world is pulling her into danger and I know it, and that is one thing I know you wouldn't want to happen. you wouldn't want to see her hurt." I cast my gaze down the parking lot.
“Are you saying I should reject her?” I asked my voice low. I turned to face Meredith, my eyes unfathomable, “It’s not something I take lightly. She is my mate, chosen by the Moon Goddess herself. Rejecting her would be… a betrayal of the bond we share, just maybe the goddess had a reason for pairing me with a human.”
Meredith shakes his head, disagreeing with my words. “I don't think the goddess did right this time. That female knows how to mess up things for us." I move my gaze back to him, this time curiosity fills my system and with frustration in his tone, I know that is not all about me.
"Is there some lines I missed?" I asked he hissed falling on the chair.
"I found my fated mate,"
"You did what?" I asked in excitement.
"Yes, I found her but not to worry, I don't need a mate now, I am a beta, and a beta must always support his alpha for the betterment of the Pack,”
"At the detriment of..." Before I could complete my words my phone rang, I sighed looking at the caller ID. I huffed before answering.
"Hello, son are you there?"
"Yes, I am here while did you call?" My voice was cold.
"Did you see the news?" She asked suddenly.
"What news?" I asked acting nonchalantly
"Don't play games with me, the news of you serenading a girl is everywhere, I kept getting calls from every angle, and I wanted to assume, the news was just some balloon that was going to pop soon. And we are just going to forget all about it and move on to what's the real deal."
"What if it's not?" She tittered on the other side of the phone.
"You are not being serious right now are you?" I huffed not knowing what to answer to my mother, "Logan, you being in this situation, you are not capable of having a long-lasting love and that word happy ever after, is too luxurious for you." I shake my head, "Seriously a human, Logan, you are the last hope, you are the alpha male. You are our only hope to produce and an heir that will build the pack back, you need a breeder you don't need another liability, you don't need this distraction."
"Mother please, I know that I am dying don't remind me."
"I am not trying to bruise your ego, but I don't think playing with a human girl at this point is part of the deal."
"Mother stop it,"
"I wouldn't stop, I don't want to see that girl anywhere around you, goddess, what is wrong with you? You are an Alpha, not some pup that could do anything, human girls are terrible and it's not even an..."
"That is enough, I know, five months is what is left for me but if you keep pushing it, then I will have no choice but to denounce the Pack and transit my power as the alpha..." My voice was husky and I was growling at the same time.
"Logan, you are not falling for that girl are you?"
"Why can't I fall for her when I am falling for my disease?"
"I don't think this is a good time, I will talk to you when you have a clear head," Mother ended the call without waiting for me to speak, and I threw the phone to the wall.
"Dammit, I know I am dying and I can't be with any woman, but I just needed these few months to be happy to forget I am dying, to be free to do things that make my heart rejoice, it's not too much to ask for. Is it?" I tilted my head to my beta.
"Alpha..."
"Please Meredith don't call me that, it's suffocating, I can't even tell what I want, it doesn't always have to be about the Pack. What about what I wanted, I know I can't find love and I am not even talking about that because I don't know how it is to love a female or to live. I know this curse is eating me slowly but I do have the right to spend my last free six months before my hell year happened, and enjoying myself with the female the goddess had given me before I moved into that hellhole with Katerina, the female perfect for my bleeder." I grabbed my jacket
"Logan, where are you off to?"
"Spending my six months wisely,"
