Chapter 144
Rakari's POV
*2 days later*
“Just let me come with you”
I pulled out of the hug and shook my head at him,
“I can’t let you do that Lukas, you belong here”
He shook his head,
“I belong with you”
I closed my eyes,
“You belong with your mate”
I opened my eyes to see that his eyes had now changed to red, a sign that he was angry,
“What do you mean by that exactly? Don’t you love me?”
I looked at him shocked,
“Of course I love you! I’ve known you my whole life, how could you even doubt my love for you? It’s just that no matter how much we love each other, we don’t belong together, we belong with our mates”
He closed his eyes for a second before opening them to reveal his normal eye colour,
“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have said that, it’s just that, you’re leaving and I’m really going to miss you”
I smiled through my tears and leaned forward to give him a light kiss,
“I’m going to miss you too Marcus”
“Rakari, time to go!” My dad shouted from the car,
“Coming!”
I gave him one last kiss before hugging Renee, Sam and Damon for the last time,
“I’ll miss you guys”
“We’ll miss you too, be sure to send me some pictures of some hot guys okay?”
I smiled,
“Okay Renee”
I gave them a last hug before getting in the car. I waved to them through the window and I blew Marcus a kiss which he caught in his hand and I just started crying even more. When they were no longer in eye view, I sat back on the seat and cried silently, I’m literally leaving my whole life behind, my friends, my school, my boyfriend… well, ex boyfriend now and I can’t do anything about it. I sat in the backseat of the car and cried myself to sleep.
*1 hour later*
“Kari?”
I felt something touch my shoulder but I just groaned and pushed it away, I was too tired,
“Rakari?”
“What?” I said groggily,
“We’re here”
I opened my eyes only to be blinded by the sun so I closed them again,
“Daddy?”
“Yes princess?”
“Carry me”
He chuckled,
“You’re 18 Rakari”
“But I’m tired” I said in a child-like voice,
“Okay fine”
My dad may be old… ish but he is definitely not weak and seeing as he’s a wolf, he has more strength. He lifted me up out of the car and I kept my eyes closed, I wasn’t ready to adjust to the bridge.
“Can she not walk?”
My eyes immediately snapped open when I heard that sexy voice and I looked up to also see a sexy guy, actually no, that isn’t the right word to use, let’s just say that I felt like jumping him right there and then,
“Oh she can walk, she’s just lazy” My dad said with a tinge of laughter in his voice,
“You can put me down now daddy”
He let me get down and I straightened out my clothes before turning to face the god-like beauty again,
“Don’t mind my daughter here, I’m Martin and I think you’ve already met my wife Claire and my son Mhakir?”
The god nodded,
“I have”
“Okay and finally, this is Rakari”
“I’m guessing that her and Mhakir are twins?”
My dad nodded,
“They are”
“Well, I’m Darius, the alpha of the shadow valley pack”
He shook my dads hand and when he shook mine I felt a surge of electricity run through my veins and I automatically knew why… Darius is my mate. I realized that we were still holding hands so I abruptly removed my hand from his,
“Uhhh, yeah, nice to meet you Darius”
My dad looked at the two of us confused before speaking again,
“I would just like to tell you how grateful I am for taking us into your pack”
“It’s my pleasure, their will be a ceremony tomorrow to formally honour and declare you a member of the pack”
“That’s very nice of you”
Darius smiled and I nearly fainted at how he looked, it was just so mesmerising, the way he showed his pearly white teeth,
“Rakari?”
I snapped out of it and looked around to see that my dad was gone, was I looking at him that long?
“Where’s my dad?”
“Gone to find his room”
“Okay, well, I’ll be off too then”
I turned around to walk off when he grabbed my wrist and I felt the same electric current pass through me just like before,
“Can you feel that?” He whispered into my ear and I nodded,
“We’re mates” I said breathlessly,
“Let’s get things clear, I don’t want a mate, I was perfectly happy with my life how it was and you are not going to ruin that, understand me?”
I realized what he said and yanked my wrist out of his grip and turned to face him,
“Whether you like it or not we are mates and you may be able to control everyone else but not me” I walked closer to him, “I’ll be the one controlling you”
I patted his cheek and turned away to walk up the stairs and I could’ve sworn I heard a growl when I did but I didn’t take any notice. If Darius thinks he’s going to control me, he’s got another thing coming.
Darius’ POV
She turned away and walked up the stairs and I let out a low growl. She’s so feisty and that makes me want her more. Why couldn’t she have been ugly or something? She just had to be a heart stopper didn’t she?
I partly meant what I said when I said that I didn’t want a mate. Half of me wants a mate, someone to make me whole, someone to hold at night, someone to call mine and only mine but the other half doesn’t because I know everything is going to get complicated and I don’t want that,
“Darius?”
I pushed the thoughts of my mate into the back of my mind and turned to look at Rhylie,
“Yes?”
“Have you met the new family?”
I nodded,
“I have and it was very interesting”
He rose and eyebrow at me, “Interesting how?”
I sighed,
“I found my mate”
“Really now? What’s her name?”
“Rakari”
“Luther’s daughter?”
“The very same”
“I passed her on the way down here and I have to say, she is sexy”
I let out a growl,
“What did you say?”
“What? She’s hot”
I was literally shaking with anger now,
“She’s mine!”
“Oh really? Because from what I saw, you rejected her”
That got me to calm down. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes until I knew that they were back to their normal colour,
“I did”
He looked at me confused,
“Why would you do that? She’s your mate”
“I don’t want a mate”
He snorted,
“Yeah right, you nearly ripped my head off but"
“Just keep your hands off of my mate!”
He placed a hand on my shoulder,
“Calm down, I was joking, she’s your mate not mine but you shouldn’t be telling me this, she’s practically sex on legs to other guys”
“Not if I have anything to do with it”
I walked up the stairs to Rakari’s room and just walked in to see her lying on the bed texting and I couldn’t help my eyes from roaming over her body, I mean how could you not? She’s beautiful,
