Mate…

Dom’s mate.

I thought he never met her but it seems that isn’t the case.

He has lost her somehow.

“I am sorry……”.

“It’s not your fault Sier.

Some may call me crazy for even thinking of having her back.

But what can I do.

A heart wants what it wants.

No matter the other person returns it or not.

.

”

What did he mean by that?

His mate didn’t love her? Which stupid woman wouldn’t want him?

I must have heard him wrong.

“I bet you guys must be a power couple.

She must be sweet and loving.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

”

I try to joke around, letting out a chuckle when a strange pain roots in my chest.

The very fact of him living someone so badly, made me feel strange.

It couldn’t be jealousy right? Why would I

be jealous?

She was indeed.

Too sweet.

Too innocent yet too intelligent.

Unlike other woman who go crazy for love, she always used her brain before her heart.

And maybe that’s why she didn’t choose me….

I was more of an emotional man you know….

”

When I saw you for the first time Sier, you looked just like old me.

Too emotional, too nice.

But trust me when I saw the world we live in, doesn’t deserve it.

”

I could see the pain behind his eyes.

Yet what I failed to understand is that if she didn’t accept him as her mate, why does he want to reincarnate her? Why is he wasting his entire life searching for the prodigy, for a woman that probably left him.

Stepping down from the bed, I approach him and crouch down beside him.

“Trust me when I say Dom, it was her loss.

Even if she searched the entire world, she wouldn’t have found a man that loved her more than you.

”

He chuckles to shake his head in a no.

His hands clench into

fists.

She found a man, Sier.

She replaced me so easily.

She treated me as a fucking replacement…”

Frustrated he slams his fist on the wall and my hands immediately shoot up to wrap around his knuckles.

He stops to look at me and I swear I saw tears brimming his eyes.

“Don’t… Don’t hurt yourself… she didn’t deserve you… you deserve someone way better.

You have to trust moon goddess.

“I can’t Sier… I tried… I tried so hard but.

her smiling face.

.

I can‘ t get her out of my mind.

.

she played with my feelings but still… I am pathetic Sier.

.

my brother is right….

I never deserved to be the king… I am too weak…I can’t even get over a woman…”

”

Hey… shhh”

I don’t know what came over me but his every pain felt like my own.

Before he could hurt himself any more I pull him into my arms, making his face snuggle into my chest.

He breaks, literally, sobbing like a child and I held him like I have never held anyone.

He always seemed so gentle and caring, I could have never imagined something so tragic has happened in his life.

Loving someone to the extent of insanity and not having them love back… must be the worst feeling ever right.

I may have felt it with my family.

But with your mate, its completely different.

Sometimes I think its a good thing I can’t talk and connect with my wolf.

It saves me from this mate bond shit.

I wanted to know more about her I was intrigued but I resisted.

Its his personal matter, I am sure he is uncomfortable talking about her, plus the topic has already hurt him enough.

If he wants he will tell me more about her on his own.

“I… don’t even know why I am telling this to you.

.

but.

.

I just felt like.

”

“It’s fine.

I am here.

I am never going to leave you Dom.

Trust me.

”

He sniffles to clean his tears and look up at me.

Before I know he holds my face in his palms and presses out foreheads together.

He takes deep breaths and I just stare at him wide eyed.

“I know.

I may have known you for just few days but you are the best thing that happened in my life Sier.

Thank you.

”

My heart swells.

It feels so good to hear this from someone who you care about.

I nod and he pulls back to lay back on the sofa.

“Don’t tell anyone about this okay.

I just.

Its been years since I cried like this.

.

”

“Sometimes its good to just let go Dom.

Trust me.

And off course let this be our perfect little secret.

”

He nods.

Trust me and I begrudgingly pull back from him to walk back to the bed.

Closing my eyes I try to sleep to only toss around uncomfortably.

Finally after what felt like hours I found sleep and I drift into oblivion.

He gets up from the couch to rake his fingers through his hair, letting out a deep breath, he couldn’t help stare at that woman laying on the bed, carelessly with her guards down mouth.

slightly open a bit of drool slipping down her cheek.

Crouching in front of her, he blankly stares at her.

Those small eyelashes, button nose, those plump lips.

She was so different from her.

So fierce, wild and braze.

Outright yet so naive and innocent by

heart.

Her hair were wild most of the time, just like her eyes.

And he couldn’t help hold in a smile remembering that rumour.

She has lined a knife along Xavier’s neck on getting disrespected.

So

brave.

But then he remembers that scared look in her eyes when she came running to him, asking for his help.

Saying someone was trying to kill her.

He didn’t doubt her.

He knew that was possible.

Especially when….

she was so special.

Her shirt lifts up as she snuggles into her pillow, leaving her waist bare to his eyes and he couldn’t help stare at that birthmark on her naked skin.

It can simply appear as a birthmark, but those who have read about it new better.

It was shaped like two wings.

Angels wings to be exact.

A proof that she wasn’t just anyone.

She was the woman he has been looking for all these years.

The prodigy

Not able to stop himself, he traces her mark with his finger to pull back.

Clenching his fist, he covers her up with the comforter to softly whisper to her.

“Sleep my dear Sier.

”

“No one can harm you till I am here.
