Lily

I stared at her and smiled, I looked nice but inside I was having a mental conversation with myself about how to kill her.

"Lily, oh you are here." she said acting surprised "After last time I wasn't expecting to see you here again." bitch.

"Oh why would you think that?" two can play the game bitch "It's normal for mates to fight. But they always make up in the end that's why mates exist, no matter what happens they only want one person and that is their other half." she opened her mouth to say something but I continued "It's okay if you don't understand, you will once you find your mate and you will want to kill any bitch who comes close to him in the wrong way." I faked smiled at her, she only stared at me and didn't say anything.

"What can I help with Luna?" said Rora who was there the whole time. I wanted to correct her about the Luna but I didn't because Abby is here and she should know who's the boss here.

"Do you know where Alin is?" she seemed to think for a bit before she responded.

"He is with alpha Heron, he is..."

"I know where he is." I said before she could finish. She smiled at me, Abby saw that I was pretending like she wasn't there, so she left.

"Anything else I can help you with?" I'm hungry so.

"Yes, you don't mind doing me breakfast because if I do it I'll burn the whole kitchen down." I won't but I'm to lazy to make it myself.

"No problem, do you want me to bring it in alpha's room or you'll eat in here?" she asked. I better eat it at Herons room, I want to eat in peace and I don't want to see Leggy's face.

"In Herons room." I went to Herons room waiting for Rora to bring me my breakfast after it was done. I scrolled through my phone, passing my time. After fifteen minutes or less or more. I don't know. Rora brought my breakfast.

"Thank you, I might have married you if I didn't have Heron." I said taking a bite at the waffle she had made, it's delicious. "In fact, I'm totally leaving Heron for your cooking." Rora chuckled.

"Enjoy your breakfast." and she was out the door. I ate in silence and once I was done, I put the trey of food at Heron nightstand and went to the bathroom that was connected with Herons room, to wash my hands.

Okay I was done eating and I was bored, what should I do. I should... Crash. I sound came from this hall.

"You asshole I'm going to kill." I voice yelled. I got out to see what's going on and maybe stop the fight. But what I didn't expect was being hit with a book. Ouch.

"Oh my god, Luna!" said a boy who looked sixteen years old. "I didn't mean to hit you, that was for the hideous creature behind you." he said, lookin guilty, I spun around to see who he meant.

There stood a girl who looked around my age, her auburn hair pined in a ponytail and her round glasses almost falling of her face. She wore a boy shorts, that were knee length and an oversized shirt that looked like it would be perfect for Alin size and not her. She pushed her glasses up and said "I apologize for distributing you, Luna. I just don't like it when people touch my books without permission and this little mice happened to no only touch but also grease them."

She threw him a glare, but he only stuck his tongue out. "You are so dramatic, you literally have five copies of that book." he said.

"That doesn't give the permission to grease them." she said back. They are so cute they remind me of Liz and Nate.

"Chill, it's just paper. You need to get out of your room, change your clothes and try to live a little. How are you supposed to find your mate. You are twenty-two and still are mateless." that semmed to push her to the limit because her face turned red. She lunged for him but I got between them.

"Hey, hey." I said grabbing their attention. "Don't fight. You guys can talk this through."

"No we can't." the girl said till looking at him.

"Okay, okay. You may think that know but once you are all cooled down, you'll think differently." they turned to look at me then again at eachother.

"You need a life." was the last thing the boy said and sprinted out of here.

"Ugh, I hate that little mice. I can't believe he is my brother." she groaned. Just like Liz, she may say she hates Nate but she knows she loves him.

"What's you name?" I asked her.

"My name is Harper. I'm sorry for not introducing myself, Luna." she apologized again.

"It's okay, don't apologize and please I would prefer if you called me Lily." I smiled.

"I'm sorry." and here she apologized again. "I'm sorry I apologize again." she said then realised that she apologized once more, she hit her forehead. I giggled, she's actually cute.

"I'm... just... I'm just going to leave." she turned to leave. No, no I'm bored.

"No don't leave. Stay, I'm bored and Heron isn't here. We can talk about books." I offered. Her eyes widened at the last part about books. "But if you have anywhere else to be it's okay." I added.

"No, no. I don't." she said looking exited. "Let's go I know a perfect place to talk." she took my forearm and started taking me wherever she was going.

***********

"I know right, he shouldn't have done that." Harper said as she took a bite of the pizza we had ordered. We were at one of the pack parks. This one was the smallest and not a lot of people came here. "That's why it's my favourite" Harper has said when I asked her. Right now we were talking about the last book she has read. We have been here for three hours or less or more, honestly I don't know. It's that time with Harper passes fast. I need to start going.

"I need—" I got interrupted by my phone ringing, I looked at the caller ID it was Heron.

"Hey." I said answering.

"Hey, were are you?" he said.

"I'm at one of the pack parks. Why?" I asked.

"I just came home, and I wanted to see. Which park are you?" with a quick explanation of which one I am. I hanged up.

"Hey, Harper I need to go, but I'll see when I come." I said to her.

"Yeah, sure." she waved. I started leaving and met Heron halfway. He immediately put his arms around me and kissed my forehead.

"Hello, mate."

"Hello, stranger." he smiled and gave a peck on the lips.

"What did you do today?" he asked as me started heading back to the pack house.

"I trained with James," I said "by the way you should have at least told me that you wouldn't be training with me and James is a cruel son of wolf when it comes to training."

He put an arm around my shoulder, while his other hand cupped my cheeks, he squished them, "Aw, my little baby can't stand a punch."

I slapped his hand away, a little bit angry. "I'm not weak, you bitch."

"What did you call me?" he gasped.

I know I should keep my mouth shut but... "I said you bitch." and here I go again. If Liz was here she would be proud but Fey would scold me like I was a five years old.

Heron laughed at me, actually laughed at me. "You are so hot when you're angry." I can't believe this boy. "Come on give me a kiss."

"No." I said, pushing myself away from him. But he grabbed my waist and kept me from leaving. He leaned down and bite my earlobe, hard.

"Careful mate, I bite. Hard." he said and took my mouth. And of course I responded. I mean nobody would be able to not respond to their mate.

He kisses were always the best, I felt like I was in cloud nine. He always knew they way to make my knees weak. If it wasn't for his hand holding my waist, I would have fallen to the ground. He pulled away.

"Let's go mate, I would rather have this in my bedroom not in here." and just like that with a quick peck on my lips, he took my hand and lead us to the pack house.

"But I'm hungry." Damn me, I just ate.

"No worries, I'll feed you."

************

"So did you tell with your friends that you will move here." he said, taking a spoonful of his dish. We were eating some pasta Rora made, I know, I know I just eat pizza thirty minutes ago, but I'm hungry.

"I only talked to Liz, I still have to talk to Fey too."

"How did Satan take it." I rolled my eyes at his nickname for Liz.

"She took it better than I expected it, but I don't think Fey will take it well." She would probably faint.

"It's okay, I'm sure she will understand." Heron said taking my hand.

"That's why I need to go home again." I said to him but he didn't look botherd at all.

"You are home," ugh I know he understands what I mean but he just wants to get on my nerves.

"No, I'm not home." I said but Heron semmed to get angry.

"What do you mean you're not home, this your home know Lily. Don't be a child." Is he being serious now.

"No Heron this isn't my home and it will never be."

"No this is your home you belong here, not in that stupid apartment." he was shouting now. Good thing we were at his room and the walls were sound proof or else the whole pack would know that we were fighting.

"That stupid apartment as you call it, it's my home and it will always be."

"So what is this house then to you? Huh?" that made me shut up because I have never thought of that. "The people in this house, that you don't want to call your home are fighting everyday to protect you and the son or daughter you might have in the future. The people here respect you and would do anything you'd ask them. Isn't that enough for you? You want more? If you do tell me because I don't think there is anything that they won't to for you. Tell me!" he yelled, I flinched at his voice. He has never gotten this angry. His eyes were close to turning black.

"It's not that..." I started but didn't know what to say.

"Then tell me what the fuck it is!" he kept yelling "If you are going to be ungreatful bitch and if you think this isn't your home the get the fuck out of my eyes I don't want to see you ever again." What? Is he for real this time. I started at him, not believing what he said.

"Are you serious right know." I said my voice was quite and weak. My eyes full of unshed tears but his were as cold as ice.

"If you think this is your home you'll stay here for the rest of your life but if you don't think that and you walk out of that door. Just know it that we are done and won't give two shits about being mates. " I'm sure I heard my heart crack. I had to choose between my mate and my friends. But how could choose between my two most valuable things. "Answer me Lily." I should choose my mate, but what about my friends. No this is wrong I'm not going to choose. I opened my mouth to object but Heron spoke "Don't worry if you leave there is Abby who would gladly take your place."

Now that made me shut my emotions off. If he wants her than so be it. It was never me and it will never be. Because if he loved me, he wouldn't hurt me. You don't hurt someone you love. So I did what I was supposed to do. I lifted my chin up and looked him straight in the eye. My eyes cold and emotionless.

"I hate you." I said to him and meant it from the bottom of my heart. There were no tears in my eyes. My emotionless face, surprised Heron. Without waiting for his response, I spun around and left. But this time I didn't run. I walked with my chin high and didn't bother with a goodbye at any of them. After five minutes the cab arrived, I hopped in the cab and didn't look back.
