Breaking The Bond

Entering the office, the Alpha walked to his office chair as I sat down in front of him.

He settled in his chair and gave me a look saying 'yes, start talking.'

As soon as I opened my mouth the phone on his desk started ringing.

He raised a finger at me asking me to excuse him, at which I nodded.

He picked up the phone and started talking to a guy, from what I could hear. Not to seem nosy I looked the other way when my eyes fell on the cards lying on the table. I picked them up out of curiosity but not even a second later I wished I that I never did.

They were Invitation cards.

Marriage Invitation cards and for the last person that I could've imagined. It was for Kyle.

Kyle, My mate who rejected me last night is marrying someone the very next morning.

My whole body freezes at this point. My heart stopped beating and it felt like I died at that very same moment. My mouth fell open and no expression came out on my face. I was disturbed by a low thud as the Alpha laid his phone down and my eyes rose to meet his.

He looked at me and the card in my hand. His once non-existent smile grew bigger.

"So you looked at them. Isn't that great? Kyle found his mate yesterday and after the very hour, he called me for the marriage. I told him that there's no need to be in a hurry but he was very intent on marrying as soon as possible." I looked at him with the same neutral expression and looked down at the card again to see the name of the one my mate is marrying.

Alia Lockwood.

Lockwood?? My eyes rose to him again as I whispered Lockwood.

He beamed at me " Yes, Lockwood. You know the alpha daughter of our neighbouring pack?"

The Lockwood pack is a small pack just like us.

I slowly put the card back on his desk as I tried my hardest to hold back the tears...

It would be better to get stabbed by a silver dagger than to witness this.

But then what else could I expect from someone like him.

"So, what did you want to talk about? " Alpha asked me.

"I found my mate last night," I whispered to him straightforwardly but due to his werewolf hearing, he heard it quite clear.

The smile on his face became twice its size, "Who's the lucky Girl ?"

I hesitated for a minute studying his face and deciding whether to tell him or not.

At last, I decided on the former.

"It's a male." A minute of silence and blank face but Shock sketched across his face at my words and0t soon it turned back to normal.

"Well, then who's the lucky guy?" I felt a slight irritation in his words.

"Why do you think he'll be lucky?" I asked him.

A questioning face appeared but soon changed to a confident smile.

"Because you're the best mate one can get. You're perfect in every way Andrew. Whoever your mate is they'll be the happiest person alive."

A choke escaped my lips and slowly tears started escaping my eyes and I wasn't able to hold them back.

"Hey, what happened Andrew? Why are you crying, son?" He came to my side and held me tightly to his chest but I kept crying. I just couldn't hold back anymore.

After my parent's died at a very young age he was my only family here.

After half an hour of me crying and him calming me I finally came into a state to speak.

"My mate rejected me." I finally said the words.

Alpha immediately stood up rage covering his features.

"Who the **** is he?" His voice roared in the room.

"Name him Andrew and I'll find out how he could've rejected you" I shook my head.

"No... Noo...Alpha. I don't want to bother him, If he doesn't want me then it's fine. I won't push him."

"But.. but Andrew..."

I cut him off. "No Alpha, don't please. I didn't come here for this. I came here for another other reason. I ...I want to break the mating bond between us."

As soon as those words left my mouth, a sharp stinging pain came flooding my senses as my head jerked to the side from the force of the slap.

"Do you even know what you are talking about??? Have you lost your fuckin' mind, Andrew?? Do you even know the consequences of it? Your wolf could die from it and you'll turn into a dead body."

He yelled all of it at me with an edge in his voice. Means that his wolf is on the edge too.

"I know it all alpha. I know it all... but there is no other option. Even Gracia is ready to face the results. Please, Alpha."

He shook his head no.

If that's it then I have no other option left.

"I vow you alpha on your friend's death, on my father's death that you will do it."

"ANDREW...." the roar he emitted shattered the window glasses. His eyes were bloodshot.

I squeaked from the power of it. Gracia sat up in alarm.

"What have you done Andrew?? You shouldn't have done that! What have you done??" he fell to his knees.

"I am sorry Alpha but it's the only way." I stood up and walked over to him. I put both hands on his shoulders trying to stand him up.

He shook his head before grasping my both hands in his.

Staring at me for a few minutes I can easily see the unshed tears in his eyes.

He slowly rose as he caressed my cheeks. "You know Andrew, I've always wished for a son like you. You would have made a Great Alpha."

I smiled and nodded at him.

I already know.

He took some steps back as he placed his right hand to where my heart was. Closing his eyes he chanted something under his breath. Soon I felt the scorching heat at the place where his hand laid. Even Gracia was howling from the pain we felt. Just as the heat reached its limit, a sharp pain pierced through my heart and all the breath left me as I fell to my knees. I was heaving from the lack of oxygen. My whole body was on fire for few seconds and then it all felt normal again.

Alpha sat down next to me as he hugged me.

"It's done, Andrew. It's done." I nodded weakly at that. A smile crept on my lips when I felt Gracia still moving.

"Is your wolf still Alive?" He asked me and I nodded at that "yes."

"Good. You are a strong were."

We both stood up as I smiled gratefully at him. Now I don't feel the pull and pain anymore. But, alas work is still left. I thanked The Alpha as he hugged me again one last time and exchanging some words of comfort before I exited his office.

I was about to exit the packhouse when my eyes fell on Alia. She's still here, didn't she go home last night? She walked through oblivious to my presence.

But I shrugged as I felt no jealousy towards her.

I exited the Packhouse and got in my Car. Giving a long sigh I began my ride to back home or what was home for a few hours.

Yes!! I'm leaving. Even though our bond is broken, if I stayed here our bond will heal itself and I don't want that. I already booked my tickets this morning after coming out of the bathroom. Now the only thing I have to do is to pack and leave for a new life with my last relatives in California.

California here I come.

[A/N]: oof .... it was a tiresome chapter especially with all those emotions and that. But I hope you all liked it. as you can already see that there's something already in the chapter which is not 'usual.' so give it a try, please.
