Chapter 6
Chapter 6
I stare at my mate in shock, my wolf took over my body and accepted the challenge which I can’t win and Emily will be satisfied when I’m forced to reject Helios before she kills me. What will I do now?
“I need to speak with you, Helios” I begin to say when Emily interrupts us with a growl.
“You are not allowed to explain, Nora” she growls
“He doesn’t know anything about this pack’s rules and I am allowed to talk to my mate about everything else” I growl back.
Surprised by my own growl I jump slightly while some in my pack clap their hands and Helios smiles.
“Come on then, princess. Perhaps we can meet your parents?” Helios say with a bright smile.
I nod and lead the way when he takes my hand. When we pass Tristan, he smiles and bows toward me. I smile shyly and nod at him.
Don’t be embarrassed, Nora. You are my princess and theirs too. Tristan, come with us.” Helios says and I nod.
I walk to the packhouse and inside, hoping that all residents are in their quarters. My hopes were crushed as my alphas aura smashed into me like a brick wall and I whimpered.
“Nora. What are you doing here? What are they doing here?” the alpha boomed.
Naturally the lycans are in a higher position but on another
pack territory they are almost like a threat against the alpha living there. So of course my alpha reacted like this by sending out his aura. Normally it wouldn’t bother me but
right now he is putting so much pressure on it that it actually hurts me.
“Honey, be nice. There must be a good explanation for this.” Luna Sandra says.
“Nora, what’s wrong sweetie?” my mo m asks.
“Nora, who are they? Do you want to introduce us? Mark, can you drop the aura, please? Nora can’t even answer.” my dad snapped at the alpha.
The alphas’ aura disappeared and I looked around the room. The alpha, luna, my parents, beta Jessica and her mate are all here. The kitchen doors open and the delta pair walks in, great.
“Well, I found my mate. This is Helios, he is the prince from the lycan kingdom and this is Tristan, his cousin. We would like to speak with my parents in private, please” I explain and all grown ups drop their chins in shock.
“The prince? You are mated to the lycan prince?” the alpha says in shock.
“Congratulations on finding your mate, Nora.” Luna Sandra and beta Jessica say.
“Thanks” Tanswer and blush slightly.
“So can please, meet my future in-laws in private now?” Helios says and lets out his aura slightly making my alpha
show his neck in submission.
“Jáne and Dean, you guys can show prince Helios to your quarters. I want to give Nora something first, if that is alright with Nora of course.” Luna Sandra says with a small smile.
“Yes Luna.” I say and smile. I know what it is she is going to give me and I am so excited to get it.
Helios nods and kisses my cheek and then goes after my parents, he drops his aura only after passing my alpha. I turn to Sandra and notices that Tristan is still standing behind me, I lift my eyebrow at him
and he smiles.
‘Helios instructed me to keep you company when he can’t,” Tristan whispers and I just stare at him.
“You are our princess and our future queen. Helios doesn’t trust our gamma right now so I will be your shadow instead” Tristan explained while we followed Sandra to her suite.
Daniel is the gamma and he wanted to take me as his
chosen mate. What if Helios hadn’t come to the ball? Would I never have met him then? Or would I have met him in the lycan kingdom?
Would he still have known we were mates even with a witch that could forge a matebond between me and Daniel? Would they have been forced to fight over me then? What if he would have killed Daniel?
“Nora?” Nora, are you still with us?” Luna Sandra asks and I
look up at her, and nod while I blush, Tristan chuckles quietly.
“Good. I am so happy that you have found your mate and perhaps with him by your side, your wolf will show herself some day.
This is the gift I wanted to give to you” Luna Sandra said and took forward a large box and opened it.
The first item was her luna dress that she wore when she had her luna ceremony. I have always loved it.
“I can’t take that. What about Emily?” I say but can’t stop looking at the dress.
“Oh you know Emily, she thinks the dress is out-dated. Honestly even if I love my daughter, she wouldn’t be a very good Luna in the future.” Luna Sandra sighs and gives me an envelope just as we hear yelling from downstairs.
“Daddy, mommy, help. Everything has gone wrong and it’s all Nora’s fault.” Emily’s screams echo throughout the pack house.
“The young lady thinks it’s Miss Nora’s fault that her mate rejected her. She hasn’t realized that it is her own fault and with that she also challenged Miss Nora.” Tristan explains to Luna Sandra.
“Oh, Nora.” I am so sorry about my stu pid daughter. Challenge? But how? This isn’t good. I will mindlink your parents that they have my permission to explain the rules to your mate.” Luna Sandra said and I nodded and smiled.
“Is there something wrong with this challenge?” Tristan asks and looks at us utterly confused.
“You have permission, Nora. He is not your mate so it’s okay to explain to him but make it quick. I know my daughter and my mate and I can bet that they are on their way here. I will tell your parents to come here with your mate.” Luna Sandra says and I nod and turn to Tristan to explain.
“Emily challenged me because of her bond so now my bond is on the stake. If she wins tomorrow I must reject Helios” I begin to explain when Tristan growls.
“Helios will never let you go on with this challenge princess”
“I know and the most stu pid thing with all of this is that I am actually strong enough to take her out. But I can’t and she knows about this.” I sigh and Luna Sandra smiles sadly.
“What do you mean?” Tristan asks.
“All warriors in training of this pack are made to pledge that basically say that none of them can harm the alphas family so Nora can’t even defend herself properly” Luna Sandra explains.
Tristan goes to answer when a loud growl is heard and the alpha’s aura comes out from behind me and drops me to my knees.
“NORA” my alpha shouted.
Tristan moved quickly so he stood between me and the alpha, in the defensive position.
“How dare you? You are in no position to go in between me and my packmember” the alpha growled threateningly.
“He isn’t but I am” Helios growled back.
I really wanted to look up but I couldn’t because the alpha’s aura is so suppressing.
“If you don’t release my mate. I will make sure your daughter won’t live to see through the challenge tomorrow” Helios says and puts some pressure on his aura.
My alpha growled but took back his aura and I released a breath. Tristan reached out his hand for me to take and helped me up.
“Yes, alpha,” I said quietly.
“Emily told me that it’s your fault that her mate rejected her. Is this true?” the alpha wheezes out.
“No, I didn’t do anything. Miss Emily showed her mean side when she hurt me and her mate didn’t want her because of
that.” I whisper
“You showed yourself weak again. Then it’s decided. I, Mark, alpha of the silver stream pack strip you, Nora, daughter of gamma, of your title top warrior and turn you away. You are hereby a packless wolf, a rogue.” the alpha’s voice echoed through my head and through my soul.
I felt my bond to the pack break and I heard the confusing voices of the pack members. I refused to scream even though it hurt so much.
“Mark, what have you done?” Luna Sandra gasped.
“Daddy you can’t do this. I have challenged her and if she is a rogue, she is forbidden to be on the pack lands. I want revenge.” Emily said from the door
Everyone stared at Emily like she had just grown another head.
“I want to fight her, please” I say through gritted teeth
“Fine. You are allowed to stay on pack lands as long as your mate is here. But you are not allowed to stay in the pack house.” Alpha say and I nod
Oh wait he isn’t my alpha anymore but it is his title, no matter what. I am raised to respect those who are older than me and those of higher rank.
My mate might be a lycan prince but I am still the gammas, rogue, daughter.
“She will stay with us in the mansion. Her parents can come over to say their goodbyes.” Helios says as he comes and
takes me in his arms.
He walks out of there and as I put my arms around his neck I notice that Tristan is right behind him. He is carrying the same box that Luna Sandra showed me.
As we walk outside we meet everyone from the lycan kingdom including Ben and Daniel.
“Prince Helios and Princess Nora, we greet you.”
I look at Helios in disbelief but he just smiles at me.
“Don’t worry, I asked them to come with us”
“But what if they were occupied at the ball or something?”
“Yeah right. No one dared to approach us after the thing with Ben and the little b itch” Linus shrugged
“Oh okay” I say and yawned.
“Hold on tight Nora. I will shift so we can get back there a bit faster.” Helios warned me.
But I didn’t get time to prepare as fur sprouted on his hands and his clothes teared as his lycan grew in size. Helios lycan has golden brown fur and purple eyes. He puts his nose in the cro ok of my neck and I giggle as it tickles. He makes a sound that says that he laughs at me.
Then he starts to walk inside of the forest. As I look around I notice that all of the guys have shifted as well and they have built a formation around us.
I feel my wolf perk up and Daniel’s scent wafts into my nose. I turn my head slightly and notice him beside us and I smile and wave at him. He glances at me and smiles while at the same time earns a growl from Helios.
Helios suddenly stops and so does everyone else, he puts me down on the ground next to Ben who steadies me as I almost lose my balance.
Before I get the time to ask what is happening, Helios is punching Daniel. Daniel doesn’t even defend himself, he
just take everything from Helios-
“No, stop them,” I plead with Ben.
“Why? This is our nature, Miss Nora.” Linus answers instead.
I wanted to stop them but I wasn’t strong enough to move, everything hurt. A scream slipped out of me and I clutched my arms and fell down on my knees.
“Miss Nora. What’s wrong?” Ben tried to ask me
I couldn’t speak as my whole body hurt so much, it felt like my skin was being peeled off slowly. It hurt so much like all of my bones were breaking and bending against my will. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
“Oh no Miss Nora, calm down, please.” Ben said but I could barely hear him.
“Prince Helios, stop. You need to stop. Miss Nora is shifting, she needs you.” Linus called
I barely registered their voices as I looked down on my arms and noticed midnight black fur sprouting out of my skin. The guys gasped and Helios tried to speak with me but I couldn’t hear what he said as black spots showed up and the darkness became too much along with the pain and for the first time I fainted.
