《Alpha Heron》Chapter 8

Lily
I woke up to an empty cold bed. I looked at the time it was eight in the morning. I wanted to sleep more but my eyes wouldn't close, so I got up and went downstairs without changing my clothes. What? They're comfortable. It's not because they smell like Heron. It's not... Okay maybe it is a little bit. I entered the kitchen and smell of pancakes hit me. Yummy. Heron was cooking in his sleep clothes. Well it looks like I'm not the only one.
"Good morning." he said turning to look at me. "Slept well?"
"Like lamb." I replied. "You?"
"Like never before." he smirked. Putting two plates of pancakes and two glasses of orange juice. I sat on one the chairs and Heron said opposite of me. We ate in comfortable silence. After ten minutes we finished. After Heron washed the dishes we sat on the sofa ready to talk. I might have helped him wash the dishes but I didn't want to.
"So... Who is going to go first?" I asked. Heron looked at like saying 'you go first'. Uhh no, I'm not going first. "So want to explain the love between you and Leggy?" I said, he only raised an eyebrow at the nickname I had given her.
"We both know that the thing between me and Abby is not love." he said.
"Sure it isn't." I said, with sarcasm of course. "What do you call kissing her and exchanging glances while I was sitting at your side?"
"It's not like you think."
"Than how the fuck is it? Fucking just tell me." It doesn't look like this conversation is going to start.
"After I..." Ugh, is going to talk or what.
"After you... what?" I said. "Heron if you don't start talking I'm going to fucking leave out of here,"
"Goddamn, Lily can't you wait. It's not like I'm telling a fairy tale. Can't you be patient and not fucking blow up?" Ouch well that hurts. I stayed quite. "Thank you."
"So..." Of course I can't keep my mouth shut. He looked at me like he couldn't believe me but then rolled his eyes and continued.
"You know the day we broke up?" I nodded. How could I forget. "Well I was fucking mess."
"Well that's surprising, considering the fact that you said that you didn't give a shit about me and what you did to me." Well it's not like I'm lying. I will never forget the words he said to me.
Reminisce
Me and Heron had been dating for more than six months. Everything was going great at least that's what I thought. Until he started being this cold, arrogant asshole but still I stayed beside him, supported him. Then after a week he started canceling our dates, and I rarely saw him. So one day I had enough. I went to his house to see him and talk to him. Heron opened the door looking sleepy. By looking at his face I understood that he wasn't surprised to see me there. I didn't come at his house often because our pack the River pack didn't get along with the Midnight pack which was Herons pack. In fact they loathed eachother.
"Hey," I said.
"Hey." he said back, leaning on the door. What isn't he going to invite me in. Nevermind he's my boyfriend I'm just going to invite myself in. I was about to go inside but I noticed something in his neck. What the... Is that hickey?

"What?" he said.
"What the fuck is that, Heron? You're cheating on me?" I said my eyes pointing at his neck. He stayed quiet. "Say something." tears started gathering in my eyes. It wouldn't be long before they fell.
"What it's not like you didn't expect this," what is he talking about "Don't look at me like that, it's not my fault it's yours."
"What are you talking about?" I'm really confused.
"God, how are you naive? Did you really think that I want you. I mean nobody wants you. Look at you, can't you lose weight and put some make up and normal clothes." he said, my tears didn't wait they started falling down. How can he say those things. "I don't want you I never did. Get that inside your head and get the fuck out off my territory." I couldn't believe the words he is saying. No this not the Heron I know, the one I love. There is something wrong.
"Baby," a voice called from inside and that was my breaking point. I looked at him, his eyes cold as they can be. There I realised that the Heron I knew isn't the Heron and I'm not going to let him break me anymore. I turned and leaved. I shifted into my wolf and leaved not looking once behind. From that day I decided that, I'm not going to let people in my life anymore and Heron Elias will be always my enemy.
end of reminisce
"The things I did to you and the words I said to you I know weren't nice." you think I said inwardly "But I don't regret them." oh I'm killing this asshole.
"So you just fuck up someone up and you don't regret that you did that?"
"No I don't regret anything in life, because I know that every single thing that happens in life happens for a reason." he said but I. I'm fuming with anger.
"So you cheating, happened for a reason." I scoffed.
"Yes it happened." he is seriously getting in my nerves.
"Then what was the reason? Oh I know you just couldn't keep your dick in your pants." right now I was shouting.
"Can you fucking listen. I fucking loved you and I didn't have a choice. So fucking listen." he shouted back. Now that made me shut up for real. Wait what he loved me. No Li he is just lying. He is messing with my head and I don't like it a bit. "It's not like I had a choice never did. Even right now I don't but I'm choosing to risk. For you."
I stayed silent. Okay what am I supposed to say to that? I don't know anything. I'm losing my mind right here. Once he says he loves then he says he is risking for me and the cherry of it all is him saying he cheated on me for a reason. What the fuck is that supposed to mean. I'm so confused right know, I think my brain is going to explode.
"After I broke up with you," Heron said continuing "I got drunk not only on alcohol but also on drugs." Is he being for real know.
"Why would you do that?" I asked shocked.

"Being a werewolf, doesn't get you quickly drunk. And even if you got drunk it wouldn't be five minutes before you were sober again. So I tried drugs." he said. I was about to feel bad about him but I realized he didn't really tell me why he did.
"But why did you want to get shit faced?" I asked again. He hesitated to answer at first but then he said.
"To forget you." he said so quietly that if it wasn't for my werewolf hearing I wouldn't be able to hear him. "Your face when I said those words wasn't leaving my mind. So I arrived home and there was Abby or she came after I arrived I don't know. Damn it I don't know how I even got home. Next thing I know I woke up in bed with her sleeping next to me." he didn't have to say naked because I know that she wouldn't just sleep with him.
"D-did y-you sleep with her again?" I asked. He shook his head.
"Never again." he said and I'm sure he's telling the truth.
"What about others?" He hung his down. Fuck. Why couldn't he wait.
"I'll admit I slept with other but it never was more than one nightstand and they all were from others pack." Damn him. I didn't realise tears has started falling until he wiped one away. "Please don't cry. It's hurts to see you like this and knowing the reason is me. Please don't."
God I'm so weak, I said I won't cry for him anymore but look at me I'm crying like a little baby. I wiped my tears with the back of my hand and said "What about that day in the pack house?" Oh I'm not letting that one go.
Heron took a deep breath and said "She kept looking at me and of course I felt someone staring at me. So whenever I looked at her she would pretend she wasn't looking. After we finished eating and you went to help with the dishes. I went to my room to change my shirt. I was about to wear my other shirt when she came in my room without knocking." He stopped for a moment.
"And..." I said but he gave a look as saying let me catch a breath. After few seconds he said.
"She said she was happy that I found you."
"Of course she was." I scoffed interrupting him.
"Are you going to let me talk or what?" Heron said angrily. I pretend to zip my mouth he rolled his eyes and continued. "Anyway she said she was happy for and wanted the best from me. She said she will try to stay away from me but she can't stop her feelings from me," of course she can. She is just saying that to make you feel bad about her. "And, just for the time we had that night, she wanted one last kiss."
"And you were ready to give it to her." oh fuck it. I can never stay quiet.
"No, I refused but she started leaning I was about to push her and there's when you came in. You misunderstood everything and you didn't wait for me to explain you just took off. Just like the time you saw me at your work place." he said joking.
"Don't joke, because of you I lost my job." instead of feeling bad he laughed more. I punched his arms, only hurting myself more then him but I was smiling. Wait a moment.
"How do explain the hickey on your neck that day and what was the reason?" He froze. Ha got you bitch now spill the beans.
"The hickey was from Bet, she knew what I was doing and why I was doing it. No she didn't have feelings from me and she was the one who called baby." Bet was Herons childhood best friend, she was a really nice girl, even though my parents and Herons parents didn't approve us dating because of our packs were rivals, she supported our relationship and helped me sneak out to meet Heron.
"It's been years since I've her, were is she now?" We weren't really close but she was a nice friend.
"She got mated to a wolf from another pack and moved in with him." Maybe that's why I haven't seen her.
"And what was the reason?" he looked like he wasn't believing me but I only smirked.
"I..." he started but before he could continue. Crash. The glass door broke by three wolves, werewolves. Heron got infront of me to protect me from the breaking pieces of glass.
The wolves didn't wait the gray one pounced on Heron. Then the other gray one joined. Heron managed to push them off and shift to his dark brown wolf. Rouges. They were rouges, you could tell by the way they smelled. I also shifted to help Heron but the third wolf. The one that had chestnut colour hair came infront of me. I didn't wait a second, I went for her throat. The weakest point of every werewolf. But it look like she expect it that's why she easily avoided my teeths. I kept fighting her but she always avoid my claws or teeths and never fought back. Men if I get out of this alive I'm not going to stop training. When the wolf saw Heron was close to finishing the second gray wolf, it took off. I was to drained to chase her. So I collapsed on the floor. I hate myself for being such a weak bitch. Heron snapped the seconds gray wolf neck and came to me inspect if I was hurt.
Once he was sure that I was okay he shifted back. I followed him shifting right after him. He handed me one of the blankets from the couch, his eyes never leaving mines. After I wrapped the blanket around me, he said "I'm going to grab you some clothes and we are leaving." and started to go upstairs. I didn't mean to look at his ass but I couldn't help my eyes. My eyes darted to his ass and I blushed like crazy. He turned to look at me, smirked knowingly and turned back around and went upstairs. God what am I going to do with him?
