Episode 14

...Estefania:...

I arrived at the pack and went to the training ground where my man was.

He looks hot with his shirt all sweaty, I bite my lips remembering his face when he reaches climax, it makes me wet just thinking about it, so I just tease him a little to warm him up.

Estefania: Honey, I just bought a beautiful lace lingerie set just for you.

Mateo: Seriously, I can't wait to see it.

He says, getting a little closer to me. I know he's getting excited. I wish I could steal a kiss from him in front of everyone and let the whole world know he's mine.

Suddenly I saw how he frowned and his eyes showed fury, the air felt heavy, being close to him. I knew his guard was down; he was talking to his wolf in his mind. I saw what he was thinking, I turned towards where he was looking and then I realized what was happening.

My cousin was his destined mate, that's why he was so strange, and it all started the day he went through his transformation. That and many things made sense.

I didn't say anything; I knew these things couldn't be discussed in public, so I started walking until he caught up with me in the restrooms. There was no one to interrupt us.

Mateo: Love, please wait. Let's talk.

Estefania: Now you want to talk? It's been a week since his transformation. Why didn't you say it before?

We started arguing, I said some things I didn't mean, but I was upset and his denial wasn't helping.

Estefania: That's what he is, a damn freak! Imagine you with a damn omega, and to top it off a baron, how stupid that sounds. After sharing a bed with a woman like me.

I saw his expression change. I knew he wanted him.

Mateo: YOU WILL RESPECT MY OMEGA.

Ten damn years of my life thrown in the trash. He doesn't want me. I felt the presence of more people; he turned and then turned around and left.

His silence and behavior were clear. I walked to the exit; I saw my cousin looking at me beforehand, as if he knew what was happening. I wanted to scream at him that he was mine.

That he should know that he is nothing in his life.

But who am I kidding? Mateo was not willing to confess the truth, so I just walked away.

I got home, and there was the person I least wanted to see, MY SISTER.

Sabrina: What's wrong, sis?

Estefania: I'm tired. Please get out of my room, I want to sleep.

Sabrina: And since when do you sleep here?

Estefania: Please, I want to be alone.

Sabrina: You already found him, didn't you?

Was it so obvious that she would realize what was happening?

Sabrina: Don't look at me like that, okay? You better tell me what happened.

Estefania: He's doubting it.

Sabrina: And why don't you go on a trip for a few days? Clear your mind. Maybe he'll miss you, and when you get back, he'll have made up his mind about you.

Estefania: And what if I come back and he's already with him?

Sabrina: That would mean that his love for you wasn't really as intense as you say it was.

Estefania: You're right. I'll take the business trip my brother has to go on, and I'll go instead.

Sabrina: Wait, did you say "he"?

Estefania: It's Kevin.

Sabrina: Wait, our cousin?

Estefania: The same one. I'm going to get some rest; I'm leaving at dawn.

She leaves, and then I start packing my suitcase. I think my sister is right, I should let him think things over. If by the time I get back they are already together, it means he doesn't really love me.

I wake up very early. I had a bad night; I'm not used to sleeping alone, but I think he doesn't feel the same way because I haven't even gotten a call from him.

I get ready and leave, with my suitcase in hand, I get on the jet, and I just sent him a text message. This trip is going to be long and too tiring.

I arrive in Russia and start to solve the problems here. Nine days have passed and he hasn't even sent me a single text message. I leave the company and feel like going to a bar, so I arrive and go to the bar; I order a gin. I wanted to think about the possibilities if he chooses my cousin.

My cousin calls me saying that we should meet in Italy, so with my last day here, I decide to keep drinking. I was so lost in my thoughts when a man comes up and sits next to me.

Stranger: Why so lonely?

Estefania: You know how I am, buddy.

Stranger: Where's your dog?

Estefania: Lucas, what are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be at your father's birthday tomorrow?

Lucas: Mmm, yeah, but I had to take care of some work stuff that won't solve itself.

Estefania: And the king is all alone?

Lucas: Mmm, you know me well. Until I find my soulmate, I can do whatever I want.

Estefania: Yeah, you're all the same.

Lucas: Don't tell me your man already found his mate?

I told him everything that was going on and he told me:

Lucas: Listen, cuz, I don't know what it feels like to be in love, and I don't know what it feels like to have a bond with someone, but I suggest that if you love him, fight for him.

Estefania: You think so?

Lucas: Of course, but do it. Make him suffer, okay? Hey, aren't you going to Italy?

Estefania: I'm leaving tomorrow.

Lucas: We're going together.

The next day we were already arriving in Italy, we went straight to their territory, all the family was present, but there was a problem, someone was missing and that was KEVIN.

I asked my family and they said he had stayed. I started to do the math and I realized something I had completely forgotten.

Mateo's heat.

I knew that my cousin, by not being here, Mateo would look for his mate now in his heat, and I couldn't allow that. If Kevin didn't come, it's because he knew he would look for him.

I couldn't let them be together. No way!

I returned in time; he was already beginning to suffer the haze of his heat and was looking for a way to appease it, so I had to take advantage of it and not allow Kevin to win him over. No way!
