A.O

Chapter 4

A knock sounded at my door. "Come in." I said tiredly, folding the last of my clothes which is like only five?

I didn't get much sleep last night, I literally spend the whole night bawling my eyes out and listened to the whimpering of my wolf.

To make things worse, all the girls were either glaring at me or purposely bumping into me, all because of that stupid ass of a hole Xander.

Who does he think he is? Oh, right a mighty huge ass alpha?

"Cat?"

"Cat!"

"Oh my god Catalonia Wist come back!"

I felt a tingle of pain on my right cheek. "What...?"

"Thank god you're back, I thought you died with your eyes open." Jen squeal hysterically.

"Jen..." I sneered out, jumping onto her, earning an 'oomph' from her as we land on my bed.

"That’s...for slapping..me!" I said laughing as she squirmed violently as I tickled her. "Sor..sorry!" She gushed out, trying to get my fingers off her.

I smiled satisfied, I removed my hands off her, letting her catch her much needed breath.

I'm going to miss this girl.

Tears sprang to my eyes as I thought about us living far apart. Why must the Dark Moon pack be continents away?

"Oh cat." Jen said hauling herself up from my bed, crawling over to hugged me. "I'm going to miss you so so much." I said finally giving up on holding in my tears, and went full on crying for not only leaving my best friend, but also for the cruelty of the moon goddess thrown at me.

"I'm also going to miss you too." She paused, "You should have seen Emily's face when she found out she's not the mate to the most powerful Alpha." She laughed, trying to clear up the tension.

"Damn, should have taken a video." I said amused, playing along.

I really don't know if I can get through but I must try. For myself and my parents.

"Goodbye Jen." I said hugging her one last time before walking towards the DarkMoon Pack gamma, Ollie.

That jerk is not even here to pick up his own mate.

Getting into the expensive looking car that I don't bother knowing the name of, I forced myself to not turned back.

But the urge is too strong, I need this.

I looked back from the backseat, seeing Jen is already gone.

Till next time Jennifer.

Slouching, I chose the backseat like come on it has bigger space instead of the passenger, I lay down flat, exhausted from the lacked of sleep.

I don't even bother starting a conversation with Ollie and let darkness consumed me.

"Luna?"

I felt something or rather someone shaking me.

"Mmm?"

"We're here."

Yawning I stretched out my arms and then turned to the side to stretch further.

That's a nice nap.

I tried to forget about the feeling Ollie made Zara and I felt when he called us Luna. A sense of pride washed over us.

"I will choose another with stronger abilities." Xander's harsh words came piercing through my heart.

Sitting up, shaking my head, I stepped out of the car, accepting Ollie's hand.

It felt wrong.

The mansion that stood before us is beautiful, breath taking.

I stared with awe at the house not realizing Ollie had already started making his way towards the mansion with my bag on his muscular arm.

You already have a mate Catalonia, well an asshole one.

Catching up to Ollie, "Thanks." I said giving him a real smile of my own, taking my bag from him. "I can take it from here."

He looked taken aback by my politeness, nonetheless nodding his head.

Walking into the mansion, it's eerily quiet. All the lights are off, only the moonlight that is emitting from the outside lightning up the house.

"Xander?" I questioned as I continue to make my way to the second floor.

No answer.

Why did I even reject Ollie's help?

I don't know...

Thinking that I should just choose a room myself, I walked down the long hallway filled with rows of doors, my footsteps echoing.

I didn't see any room that gave me a type of vibe. Yes, call me crazy but hey that's me.

The higher I go, the more suffocated I felt.

Despite its beautiful appearance on the outside, inside felt dead.

Just like him.

Maybe he bring girls home and...

Woah now that thought came out from nowhere.

Hey he didn't have s*x with any woman. Zara defended him.

Okay okay I know but you might have forgot to add a yet at the back.

Have some faith in him Lonia.

After yesterday? No way.

When I was talking to Zara midway, I stopped in my track.

This is the one.

I grinned happily as I pushed opened the brown oak door.

Inside, the first thing that catches my eye was the comfy looking queen sized, four poster bed. Striding towards it I put my duffle bag down, continuing my tour in this large room.

Pushing the thin white curtains to the side, I see that I have a good view of the forest.

Leaving the windows open, I went onto the door which I think leads to the bathroom.

To my surprised, it's a walked in closet.

Saying that I would take care of my clothes later I went to the other door; this time is the bathroom. I mentally cheered as I see there's no bathtub.

I hate bathtub, I will always imagine when I was taking a nap or rest in the tub, a hand with long fingernails will come out from the water.

Just Like Freddy.

Satisfied, I went out of the room to get myself something to munch.

The kitchen wasn't hard to find at all, opening the fridge, I groaned when I see that it's empty. I meant it when I said empty.

What is this huge fridge for anyway? Extra air conditioning?

Slamming it shut I went on to search the cabinets, shelves, even drawers.

Nothing not even a single strained of pasta.

Thoughts about walking out to buy groceries did went through my mind but hello, I don't even know where the hell is the shop located. Damn.

Looks like there only one way left...

Take out! I mentally cheered for my smartness. Taking out my phone, I went on to order some sweet and sour chicken. Mmm

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"What are you doing?" The scent of Xander came spiralling itself to my nose. "Eating." I said my mouth full of rice and chicken, watching Big Bang Theory.

"After you eat come to my office." He said coldly, waking away.

I can literally feel the frost, as I shivered.

Rolling my eyes, I continued to devour my chicken. If he wants to act like a jerk then fine, so be it.
