Mabel

It hurt me to take the most huge step in life. I knew that I shouldn't have made up my mind to come to Erica's pack but I have no choice. I wanted to know and confirm if what I heard from Jerome was right. I knew that it was so lame of him to break off the engagement over a letter. I wanted to believe that he was the one I was sending letters to all this while. I have no reason to believe what was written in the letter since I haven't confirmed it was him. I knew that the reply I was waiting for and wanted to hear was that he would say he isn't the one who wrote it but someone else.

I prayed and hope that he doesn't know anything about the letter. I would be glad for that but hearing the news and rumors traveling all over the pack makes me want to believe but I had to hold onto my trust that he wasn't aware. I knew that the reply I might receive from him while we met isn't going to be a pleasant one but I was ready to hear it. I knew that if it was all wrong then I had made a huge mistake by sleeping with the pack members in the cave but there was nothing I could do about it again. I knew that the letter must have come from him because of the way he wrote it but I don't want to believe it.

I don't want to believe that it came from him because the truth hurts. I was glad that I was able to come and I was able to come to this pack because of the free pass given by the head council. It was said that anyone can come but with the approval of their alpha, and I was glad to be able to get the approval of my alpha but it wasn't as easy as it is. It wasn't easy to persuade me because he kept insisting that I tell him the reason I wanted to come to this pack, which I had no other option than to tell him.

He told me not to come but I was adamant even after seeing the truth in front of me. The reason why I still believe that he hasn't canceled our engagement is because he hasn't said that to my face and there was fifty percent of the letter not written by him because anyone could easily hijack the letter from the bird even though we knew it can't be possible.

I was searched thoroughly before I could enter, the pack the security was tight also that one can barely sneak in or out. I didn't take anything that could warrant me not entering or being held hostage by them because I knew the implications behind it.

I was shocked to see that Jerome was just like it was said by them. He participated in the duel and he ended up being beaten, he didn't give up and with the way he fought one would know that he had been training. I couldn't help but wonder if he was forced into all this, and even though I knew that the answer was no , I still managed to hold up on my belief that he doesn't want all this willingly, and I pray that he would agree to abscond with me.

I knew that it might sound lame for me to suggest that we both escape from this pack but that's how desperate I am. I knew from the start that there would be no way for us to be together after he was taken away but I still managed to hold up my belief.

He walked out of the ring while bleeding heavily. He seems to be unaware that I was in the pack. I knew that if it was before then he would have sensed my presence because of what we shared. It all seems to have vanished which also proved that all this was right. I could see the determination to win in his eyes and with that I knew that it was getting proven. The trust I had in him was decreasing already and all I can feel now is nothing but panic.

I made my way out of the crowd as quickly as I could to be able to see him. I knew that he would be shocked to see me. I was sad that I wouldn't be able to see him anymore, I was sad and devastated about the whole thing that I stood on the same spot I was while trying to find where he went. I knew that I won't be able to see him if I keep staying on the spot. I knew with no doin that he went to wash off the blood that covered him from head to toe. I was shocked to see him fighting off the warriors and also scared that he might lose his life but that doesn't matter to me at that moment.

I was surprised to see him win but I knew that it was just the beginning because I can see some people with dangerous auras glaring at him dangerously like they wanted to kill him. I knew that if those were given a chance to fight with him then it is likely they would kill him. I wasn't pleased that he was ready to fight even after hearing the rules of the duel. I knew that he might lose his life because whatever he sets his eyes on with determination he isn't going to give up easily and might not give up.

I wasn't concentrating on what I was doing so I ended up walking around in circles. I knew that if I kept standing there he might have walked away from there and I might not be able to find him until the next day when the match would commence. I wasn't going to allow that. I was going to talk some sense into his head for him to know what he was doing. I wasn't going to allow him to put himself in some kind of trouble even though he doesn't care about me anymore if what is written in the letter was true.

I knew that there was no way the letter would be lying to us because I can remember that it was his handwriting that was found on each letter or was he forced to write that.

After minutes of walking around I was back to my senses and all I could think of was to find him. I was thinking of a way to find him when I suddenly remember that I could do so through his scent. I knew that I was too worked up about him to have forgotten that I can find him by his scent.

I focused on my surroundings and all I could smell was flowers, and with that I opened my eyes immediately while staring around only to find out that I was in somewhere that looked like a garden. I couldn't help but chuckle at how I was easily lost in the place. I knew that I should have focused on my environment when I was walking.

I closed my eyes and I tried to find his scent and this time, I was able to do so. I smile sadly even with the thought that it might be all true. I haven't for once doubted him but now I do. I felt like he would surprise me with his behavior but what I got next shocked me. I was still waking with my eyes closed while trying to locate him when I stumbled upon someone, and I tripped immediately. I would have been able to find him with his scent without focusing too much like I do if I wasn't an omega.

Alpha's don't need high concentration to find someone with the use of our scent because of their breed.

I almost fell and I closed my eyes tightly while expecting myself to fall but I didn't. I felt myself being hold by someone and I felt my heart stop beating instantly. I felt all my muscle loosen up immediately I felt the hold of the person on me. I felt safe that nothing would happen to me. I knew that whosoever the person is, is surely the right one for me because I have not felt like this before with my mate even with Jerome. I peered open my eyes and it turned out to be Jerome. I was shocked to my bone marrow.

He wasn't staring at me because his mind seemed to be somewhere else. He didn't know it was me and I used that opportunity to stare at him. It turned out that he had changed his clothes and all the wounds on his body had vanished, and no one would believe that he was wounded minutes ago.

I stared at his face for a while and I felt myself bringing my lips to his, he had turned to look at me. I had forgotten that he was still holding firmly onto my waist until he put me down gently.

"Mabel, what are you doing here?" Jerome asked and I felt heartbroken at his question.
