Chapter2
-Rose POV-
They came back from their honeymoon after about two weeks in Guam. Jack reeked of them and they reeked of Luna hormones, which meant some of their power had been heightened.
“Good afternoon Alpha and Lunas, how was your trip?”
I greeted them at the front step.
Jack shot me a confused stare as he walked up the stairs with his new wives.
Their scent had mixed with his, the breeze made sure to remind me of this as they passed by me.
“Rose, come with me?”
Jack’s voice rang through the corridor as we entered the house.
I noticed the effect it used to have in me was no longer there, his voice which used to comfort me and speak of love to only me no longer excited me.
“I apologize Alpha, I have some errands that need to be done.”
I bowed and turned on my heel.
“Rose? Rose, come with me.” Jack gently demanded again, a little bit of authority seeping into his
words.
I looked to his hand, firmly grasping my elbow before I looked to his face.
Love bites were prominent on his neck, lipgloss stained his jaw and in an instant I felt disgust.
I pulled my arm from his grip and turned around once more, leaving him behind and alone in the hallway.
“Here’s the rest of the anti–biotics for the week, make sure you take one of these every four to six hours after each meal.”
Our pack doctor had taken good care of me since Jack’s departure. My body was slowly becoming weaker from seeing Jack with his wives, he hadn’t marked me and as a result my wolf suffered.
“Thank–you.” I spoke.
She looked as though she was hesitating before she placed a hand on my shoulder.

“If I may…I’d like to discuss something with you.”
“Sure, what is it?” I replied.
“I’m very sorry for what the Alpha has done, I assure you I had no part in it. I did not know until earlier this week. I know it’s causing you great suffering but with these medications it should get better.”
I opened my mouth to thank her when she continued.
“Our Alpha has made…a questionable choice. I’m not sure that everyone quite agrees with it, but I thought you needed to know. Jack had a choice…he was either to marry his chosen Luna or get married to neighboring packs daughters.”
My grip on the bag of medications suddenly faltered and my ears began to ring. The words that were coming out of the doctor’s mouth suddenly became muted.
He didn’t choose me.
In an instant I felt myself become cold, my body began convulsing and eventually the pain in my temples grew to be too much as I collapsed on the floor.
“What’s wrong with her?!”
His frantic voice suddenly invaded my eardrums as I heard the door swing open.
“Alpha, due to complications…well I-”
“Just spit it out!” He demanded.
“Well since you’ve mated with other females who are not your true mate…you- the bond between you and your mate has been broken.”
“No!”
His roar was deafening as he continued to speak with the doctor.
“Rose,” He breathed as he entered my room.
“Alpha.”
“Please don’t call me that, you’re still my Rose.”
A small smile reached his lips but I was unfazed, this is what it was like to be alone wasn’t it?

1 looked away and he hung his head.
“I’m so sorry, I didn’t know it would break us.”
“Yes you did, you made the choice. Now we all will live with the consequences.”
I spoke as I pulled my hands from his.
“What do you mean?” He asked as he rested one of his hands on my legs.
“Was it really so hard to be loyal to me?” I whispered.
He took his hand from my leg and sighed.
“I–I’m sorry, Rose.”
“Do you know what tomorrow is?” I questioned.
He shook his head, choosing to remain silent.
Tomorrow is March eighteenth, every year before this year you’ve remembered my birthday and you’ve given me the greatest gifts imaginable. This year Jack, all I’m asking is that you let me leave,
I no longer have a reason to stay in this pack. It is only right that I leave at once.” I said.
He got up and turned away from me quickly.
“I can not grant you that wish, you’ll stay until April. If your heart still desires to leave, then you may go. Until then, you stay in the pack house.”
I nodded, not in agreement but in understanding.
After all he was still my Alpha.
-Alpha Mike’s POV-
“Unbelievable, un–fucking–believable.”
I cursed as I let the door to the house slam shut behind me.
My parents brought home a female they thought would be suitable for me despite my many protests.
“Mike! You get back in there this instant!”
My father’s voice boomed through the clearing and I shook my head, pressing on faster.
“She’s close dad, why can’t you understand how important this is for me?” questioned as I turned

He sighed, placing a hand on my shoulder as he neared me.
“Mike, I know that you want your true mate I understand completely, but son…”
“I’ve been with plenty of women dad, none of them were worth keeping around. In my eyes only one woman out there made for me. I can’t be selfish enough to not wait.”
