Rise of the Royal Wolf

Chapter Twenty-Seven

Katy's POV

Given away at birth.

Rejected by the only pack she'd ever known for 18 years of her life,

Rejected by the one who was supposed to love her unconditionally.

Finally getting accepted by a pack.

Then came drama, drama and more drama.

To this day, my life revolves around complications and nothing less. All I've ever wanted was to live a happy normal life in a pack, to have a mate who would love me no matter what.

What did I get though... (If you could describe Katy's life in one word, what would it be?)

"Katy, please wake up." I heard.

I slowly opened my eyes, I couldn't help but groan at the light that was shining brightly in my eyes.

Finally adjusting to the light, I looked beside me and saw Jordan. His features were screaming 'THANK GOD SHE'S AWAKE.'

"You're awake." He said while caressing my cheek.

"Mhmm." I hummed, smiling at his touch. I knew it was wrong but what am I supposed to do. He's my mate, and I have specific orders from the Moon Goddess.

I sat myself up straight on the bed. Last I remember was I was in the woods.

Jordan handed me a glass of water. I sipped bit by bit. "Thank you." I quitley mumbled.

I could feel Jordan's intense gaze on me, I felt slightly uncomfortable not going to lie. Jordan must've sensed it, so he instantly looked away.

"Why do you look at me like that?" I confronted him.

"I would tell you but you'd think it's silly." Jordan sighed.

"Never." I smirked.

"You always were the jokester." Jordan let out a small chuckle.

"Stop changing the topic." I gently smacked his shoulder.

"I just, looking at you makes me feel calm and it feels like there's nothing in this world that could go wrong. When I look at you, I feel lucky, to have you in my life. I feel complete, and nothing else matters besides you." Jordan spoke softly.

I could feel my cheeks burning up. I'm normally not a blusher, but when he said it all just.. I don't know; made sense.

I couldn't help but bring my hand to his flawless face. I placed it on his cheek. he growled in approval, which caused me to chuckle. I tilted my head to the and placed a soft kiss on his cheek, and gave him a warm smile.

Suddenly the door flew open. "KATY!" I heard the familiar voice of my brother. Yes my brother Kevin, like the moon goddess said it's time I start trusting him.

I stood up from the bed as fast as I could. I sprinted towards my twin brother. "KEVIN!" I screamed back and pulled my brother into a tight hug.

Kevin froze on he spot, I could sense his confusion. Not that I blame him, I haven't showed him this much sisterly affection since I met him. "I'm sorry." I quietly mumbled. He pulled me back, so that I was looking straight at him.

"What did you just say?" He asked as all of his features softened.

"I'm sorry." I said again. "I'm sorry for not trusting you, for being a bitch to you." I added.

Before I could react Kevin pulled me in for another hug. He and I both pulled back after a couple of seconds. Just as I was about to speak, I heard my name coming from behind Kevin.

"Katy." Drew said softly as he walked up to me.

"Drew." I gave him a small smile.

"Drew." A growl came from behind me, it was none other then Jordan himself.

"Give it a rest you two. My sister just woke up, and you two aren't making this easy for her." Kevin growled. "Especially after Drew reveals his big news." Kevin added in a whisper. It sounded like he was saying it to himself more the anyone else in the room.

"What are you talking about? Drew what is he talking about?" I questioned, my face remaining emotionless.

"Yeah Drew, what are you talking about?" Jordan spoke this time. I could feel his presence and aura, coming from behind me.

"Katy, I-I I'm-." Drew continued to stutter.

"SPIT IT OUT!" I screamed. I realised my mistake and apologised quietly. While trying to calm both myself and Alyssa.

"I'm leaving." Drew finally said, although he said it super quickly.

"Why?" I asked.

"To find my mate Beth. To apologise to her, for rejecting her." He quietly mumbled.

I'm going to be honest, I didn't want to stop him. I wanted him to go and find his mate. I wanted nothing to do with love. All it does is reject you and hurt you.

"Fine. Good luck, I hope you find her and I hope she forgives you." I stated continuing to remain emotionless.

"What that's it? You're not mad or upset?" Drew asked shocked.

Does he honestly think that I'm going to cry over love. "Why would I want anything to do with love when all it does is break you. It tear you apart, love is fake. Love doesn't exist, love isn't real. So if you want to waste your time finding love. THEN BE MY GUEST, but I'm not. I'm not wasting my time, chasing someone who wants to be with another. I'm not wasting my time, chasing love.. wanna know why?" I cocked an eyebrow. "Because it doesn't exist." I added and walked out of the room leaving everyone shocked.

Call me a bitch. But I'm not falling for love. I felt bad for going against Drew, but it had to be done.

I will be dammed if I ever love again. I want to love so badly, but I never want to get hurt by love again. Which is why, I'll of anything and everything to convince myself that love isn't real. It's confusing I know, I'm confused myself.

'You can try to convince yourself. However you know very well that you are in love with him.' Alyssa pipped in.

I knew exactly who Alyssa was talking about. But no, I'll do everything in my power to not fall in love with him.
