《The Rejected Mate》22 - Attack

Advertisement

It's been an hour since I laid on the bed and I am still wide awake and blanky staring at the ceiling of this guest room. Its already an hour since Archer went towards Allisa too. We were planning to sleep together , but some servant told him that Allisa was searching for him and here I am alone in the bed. He promised to go back immediately but I doubt that now. I sighed and rise from the bed. Our set up is nothing but fvck up. He can't leave his wife and although it feels so right when we're together still...its wrong , I am his mate yet I am becoming his mistress. I went towards the window and opened it wide , the moon illuminating the darkness of my room. The moon goddess might hate me so much because I often criticized and disobey her. She's might be punishing me for being sinful and putting me in such difficult situation. I was never fund of the moon goddess since then and she might hate me too. So we're even. I look down in some direction when I felt some movement there , then I am startled to see a figure somewhere in the woods. Even it is so far..I can feel it staring back at me making me back away a little. It is not a pack warrior I know it. Pack warriors has their uniform , and could it be just some pack members?

I immediately grab a coat and went out of my room. The hallways are empty indicating that the servants are resting now. I silently went down the staircase and into the back door , hurrying towards the gate once I am out , thankfully there's no guards in there. I immediately run towards the direction I was looking at a while ago where I've seen a figure but I found no one. Not even a smell. I moved inside the woods a little further , but still no one's there. Did I just seen it wrongly? But I am certain there is a person here a while ago..I shook my head and started to turn around. Maybe it's just an illusion? , but I was about to walk away when suddenly a person appeared in front of me. He smirked at me and I tilted my head trying to remember where I've seen the familiar face..

"You don't recognize me?"-he asked and suddenly memory popped in my mind.

"Oh! The one at the party!"-I said pointing at him

"Well..I guess your memory ain't that bad"-he said

"Wait , you're still here? You're not from this pack right? How did you get in?"-I asked

"You have a lot of questions.."-he said shooking his head

"And yet you did not answer even a single one"-I said grimacing

"Hm.. Let's say..yes I'm not from this paco ,but I don't really have a pack to start of"-he said and my eyes widen , Rogue?

"Right baby , I'm a rogue"-he answered. I stood there unknowingly. What do you do when a rogue appear in front of you? Mostly you run away , ask for help , report it to the guards. But here I am having a staring contest with the rogue. But if he's dangerous isn't he already killing me right now?

"You're still searching for your mate?"-I asked and he shook his head

"So you found her already! You're together?"-I asked

"Yes and No"

I furrowed my brows at him.

"You're complicated"-I said

"No know..if I were you , you should not talk to me right now"-he said

"Why not?"-I asked raising my brow

"You're different"-he said shooking his head

"I found her my mate..but we're not together yet"-he said before turning around

"But soon"-he added

"Goodluck then"-I said as he started going further to the woods.

"And oh , woman , go back to your house wherever you are staying , not all rogue out there are as nice as me"-I hear his voice as he disappeared from the darkness. Okay.. I did not even asked for his name. I shook my head and started going out of the woods again. But then I stopped midway to see a person standing at the entrance of the woods

"Archer! Since when were you standing there?"-I asked

"Why are you here Aveera? You know it is dangerous out here"-he said , disapproval in his face.

"I just uhm..thought I saw something here"-I said scratching the back of my neck

"Don't go out here alone again"-he said pulling me by his side.

"I was worried when I did not see you in your room , I thought you left again"-he said

"That's not gonna happen when my kids are here"-I said

"Yes , I should know that , but still I'm worried"-he said kissing the top of my head

"Let's go to bed now"-he said and we walked back to the mansion's direction.

∆°∆°∆°∆°

Everyone's outside the pack house , gathering in front of the house of the former Alpha and his wife. Celebrating the birthday of the former Luna. I tiredly sat in a corner eating dessert , while I watch my kids being introduced by their grandparents towards everyone else. We never got to talk to each other since yesterday. Their grandparents are so determined to separate us.

"Luna"-some member of the pack courtesy in front of me I gave them a little smile. Yes here I am today acting as the Luna again , since Allisa could not still go out , but Archer wasn't around , he went back to the mansion a while ago to see Anna who wasn't allowed to go here. There are only few servants inside the mansion since almost half of them were here to serve the pack members. My attention shifts towards four kids who are walking towards my direction , they are the same kids at the park yesterday. I smiled at them and they bowed in front of me.

"Hi , how are you guys enjoying the foods?"-I asked

"It's all delicious!"-they said

"What are your names?"-I asked leaning towards my hands on the table.

"I'm Treuz , this is Lizzie my little sister"-the one who looks quiet said.

"I'm Jacee"-the bigger girl said , she has the fierce stare for a little girl.

"I'm Alec"-the other little boy said with a sly glint on his face.

"Mama said you are the Luna"-the little girl Lizzie said and I smiled at him.

"Yes I am"

"I want to be a Luna too"-Lizzie said

"Oh , really? , then all you have to do is marry the next Alpha"-I said amused

"Who's the next Alpha?"-she asked

"See those kids?"-I asked pointing towards my babies eating at the table with their grandparents.

"Yes"-Lizzie said looking at them too.

"They are my kids and either one of them are going to be the next Alpha , if you're lucky enough to be their mate then you will become the Luna"-I said

"Wow.."

"I never see them here before"-Treuz said

"Yes because they were born in a very far away land"-I said

"I see"-he said. I can see Marcus at Treuz. They act the same. I smelled the familiar smell I've been waiting I raised my gaze towards the direction and saw the new arrivals. Archer with the three Generals. The three waited for him first as he approached our kids and took them from the chairs into his arms. His gaze shifted towards me and they stride into our direction while he is talking to his kids.

As soon as they reached us the three generals scoop each kids in front of me onto their arms. Oh..these generals have kids! And I just discovered it. Trojan has Treuz and Lizzie while Mavic has Jacee and Cobalt has Alec. I stand up and went towards Archer and my kids.

"Mommy!!"-they said and I gave hugged them and gave them a kiss

"How's your night last night?"-I asked

"It's okay..but I want to sleep with mommy and daddy tonight"-Marc said

"Yeah"-Marcus added , I looked back at Archer and he gave me an approved smile.

"Don't worry I'll tell mother and father about that"-he said

"By the way you should meet your future playmates and comrades"-Archer said turning towards the generals and their kids. They put down their kids and introduced to each other , Then let them converse. The generals excused themselves to find their mates while Archer sat with me on my table.

"They will be their future comrades..the children of the Pack warriors are meant to be the next pack warriors too"-Archer said

"Treuz has the aura like Trojan"-I commented

"I can see he and Marcus will get along well"-Archer said. After a while the kids are already playing with each other somewhere in the place while me and Archer are just talking to each other. Soon we went towards the Generals and their wives and converse with them too. But everyone were disturbed with the servant running hurriedly into the place , she is one of the servants who were assigned inside the mansion.

"Alpha! Alpha! The mansion was attacked!"-she said on and on making us all stood.

"Where's Anna?!"-I shouted

"I-I don't know..everyone were dying..I-I just escaped.."

"Fvck it"-Archer cussed

"Everyone! Evacuate to the pack hall! NOW!"-Archer shouted and everyone started to run into a direction.

"The kids!"-I said

"Baby go find the kids and bring them to the pack hall. I'm going to the mansion"-Archer said and gave me a peck on the lips before he dashed towards the other direction , the Generals going towards the borders. While I searched for my kids. What the hell is happening? This is unexpected , everyone wasn't aware of this all , how can intruders enter the borders when there is a tight security here? Then I remembered the rogue I've talked to last night , is he here too?

"Mommy! What is happening?"-Marcus and Marc run towards me. I held them in both hands

"There is a danger kids , we need to evacuate"-I said and take them towards the pack hall where everyone are gathering. As soon as we entered I immediately searched for the Generals' wives and felt relieved when I found them with their kids too. I went towards them ignoring the former Alpha and Luna who are calling for their grandchildren. I set my kids with their friends.

"I'm going to the mansion"-I said

"But mom! You said there is a danger"-Marc said

"Anna And your dad is there I need to help them okay? Stay here"-I said and stood but Marcus held the edge of my dress

"Can't I come with you?"-he asked

"No baby. You are just a little boy , but you can stay here and be with Marc , dont leave each other okay?"-I said and pat their head , they reluctantly nod before I run out of the hall.

The pack seems haunted , it's eerily quiet and the mess that were left around were like a disaster. I run towards the mansion's direction. I am still a little far away from it but I can already smell different kind of smells , woods , soil and sweats indicating of a rogue. A lot of them. Warriors are also there trying to diminish the quantity of opponents. Why would Rogues attack the mansion and not the party where majority of the pack memebers are? I pick up a broken wood and held it tight , when a wolf went on my way I immediately smashed it with the wood making it lost his consciousness and turned into a man. I run inside the mansion trying to find Anna's and Archer's scent while snapping at the wolves who are trying to attack me. There are servants and rogues body scattering around , and some pack warriors who got injured. I opened Anna's room and saw dead wolves in there Anna's nowhere to be found. I also went towards my room and Allisa's room but even her was not there. Did Archer already brought them with him?

I heard a familiar voice screaming. Anna! I immediately searched for her and find her at the veranda , a man in front of her. I run in there and pushed the man out until it stumbled and fall out of the veranda , he held at the railings but I already scooped Anna and bring her out of there. She is shaking in fear.

"Where's your poppa and momma?"-I asked

"A bad guy took momma and poppa rwun aftew them"-she said still terrified. I bit my lower lip. Why would a rogue take Allisa?

"Where do you think you're going?"-I stopped on my tracks down the staircase when a guy appeared below but I also heard a growl from a wolf from our back. I looked down the staircase and it's not safe to jump at all. Either way we'll die. I shriek when the wolf behind me bit my leg. I held on the railings before I would completely fall down the stairs with Anna.

"Awnt Aveewa , awe you okay?"-Anna asked holding both my cheeks between her little hands

"Yes I'm okay baby"-I said and shriek when I heard growls from the wolf behind again.

"Stop it already , we need these two alive"-the man in front of me said before he took Anna away from me. And the little girl screamed

"Don't hurt her!"-I yelled and he just shook his head.

"Don't worry we're not killing you yet"-he said

"Well , depends on your Alpha's decision , or maybe let's say your mate"-he said grinning. Another man held me up roughly and they brought us out. We walked pass the other werewolves fighting. Warriors tried to help us but was stopped by their opponents. We walked until we reached the woods where other werewolves are around. I can smell Archer's familiar scent , even Allisa's.

And as soon as we went near I saw the commotion happening , Archer in his wolf form and a black male werewolf fighting on the ground as Archer defended Allisa , the other werewolves were scattered fighting around. I held my breath when the black werewolf managed to bite Archer on the neck and brought him down , but Archer immediately tossed him around and did the same. They're almost equal , their bruises are all equal , but another werewolf from the Rogues jumped in the scene behind Archer tucking him on the ground , I felt my limbs tremble at the scene in front of me. Anna was also shaking in fear , crying beside me , muttering 'poppa' . The Rogues were about to rip him down when another werewolf arrived and took the opponent to the ground , defending Archer. They growl at each other as they separated. That's when the people holding us started to barge in the scene.

"Blake , look who we got here"-he said making the black wolf shift back on its human form , completely naked. He took a robe from the person beside him and put it on before he turned his gaze towards me. My eyes widen to recognize who he is..the Rogue I talked to last night. He tilted his head and motioned us to come closer , the person holding us obliged , he immediately held me tight on my shoulder. My eyes connected to Archer's fiery one before he shifted on his human form with Trojan beside him , they threw on some clothes , before Archer glared towards the Rogue , who's name is Blake holding us.

"What the hell is your intention to break into my pack?"-he spat

"All I want to have is that woman behind you.."-Blake said making me turn to him. Is Allisa his mate?

"She is not going with you she is my wife!"-Archer snarl and Blake shook his head

"She is my mate , Wringgs , give her to me or I'll kill yours"-my eyes widen when Blake clutched a firm grip on my throat. I heard a powerful growl from Archer in front of me.

"Stop it!!"-he shouted

"You can't keep two woman with you Wringgs. You only have two options , give me my mate and I'll give you this woman , or you take your wife and I'll kill your real mate...it depends on you if you wanted to keep the little girl or not"-he said , in my blurry gaze I saw Archer clenching his fist. This is insane..what kind of options are those?
