Emerald Eyed Luna novel Nina (by Mrs.Smith) novel Chapter 10

10 /102

Nina’s POV

I need to speak with Damian, I need to speak with Damian. I keep repeating this to myself. Maybe if I actually believe something good will happen. Could I really ask him to reject his mate for me? Would I be able to reject my mate for him? This is so messed up; I need to see where his head is at. I know what I said to them and I am not sure I completely agree with what I said, since I was completely pissed off and hurt, but I should hear him out. The look in his eyes was pure pain. If anything, I can get some comfort and start to accept this.

Walking to the pack house, I was not in the mood to speak with anyone. Trevor said there had been rumors going around about Damian finding his mate and it wasn’t me, but he rejected her. People are not happy if you reject your mate, very frowned upon. But it is my right, I am an exception. I was so lost in my thoughts I didn’t realize I was at the front of the packhouse. I was about to grab the handle but the door flew open! Quickly, I moved to the side and the person was so focused they didn’t even realize it was me. I was about to yell at them but I realized it was Holly. She is pissed. Stomping off and muttering under her breath. I didn’t quite understand what she said, but I heard “mate bond”. Frowning, I turned to go into the door and I could smell Holly’s scent wrapped up in Damian’s. It was like another punch to the gut. Their scents can only be mixed if they mated. Which means sex.

I am seeing red. Everything I was thinking about hearing from him was long gone. All I wanted to do was punch him. Throwing up the door, I saw Zach coming out of the game room. I know he can see my emerald eyes glowing brightly and knows I am pissed. I can hear him running behind me as I stomped up the stairs. Throwing open Damian’s office door, I saw he was not expecting me and, by the smell of sex, I could see the mark on his neck. It was an all-new level of hurt and pissed off. He just had a deer in the headlights look and I had a pretty good feeling he wasn’t expecting me to find out this quickly.

How quickly he had moved on, how quickly our time together meant nothing to him. I felt used and thrown away like trash. “I just wanted to let you know Alpha that I will be leaving in a weeks’ time. Once I make it to the bank and pack up my house, I am leaving you. I can clearly see I am not wanted or needed here. I officially reject my birthright position as your beta, Alpha Damian.” I finished strongly and left before he could say anything. I knew Zach had heard everything. He was upset in his own way. He has always had a crush on Holly and now he has taken my side. Our group was splitting up. Unfortunately, Trevor would not leave Holly and his family behind but I had a strong feeling Zach would follow me wherever I went.

I didn’t have anything planned, but since that just spewed out of my mouth, it sounds like I have some work to do. Most of that will be easy enough. I know my parents had life insurance policies and they always saved and we didn’t live outside of our means, so I knew I didn’t have to worry about money for quite a while. Deciding what I would bring is another matter though. If I am really am going to leave, I need to pack lightly.
