That is my worst nightmare, I hope my stupid thoughts don't come true and I so badly wish to see Lyulph tonight, I don't want to meet my mate.
I know this has been my long-time dream of encountering my mate but I'm useless right now, I don't even know how to shift into my wolf form yet and I'm really scared of what the outcome is going to turn out for me, I'm pretty terrified of what my father's next action will be and I hope Lyulph is alright. If it weren't for my mother who forced me to come because Lyulph will be attending as well, I wouldn't have agreed to it.
That's why I'm scared and worried if he is also coming to search for his mate, he has always said he was going to be with me for the rest of his life, what were his plans and what will he do once he finds his mate.
I wonder what he is going to be like now. I've intended to see him these past few days but he refused and shut me out of his room so I respected his decision but was I too easy on leaving him alone for the time being? Did I do the right thing?
Everyone was busy drinking and having fun, having s*x here and there. I pretended like I saw nothing and sat down at my seat close to my father, I was nervous to death and I hope I don't pee on my pants.
My father bent his face down to me and whispered dangerously. '`Let's hope you come across your mate today, if you don't Lycandra, you will suffer the consequences, understand?' He laughed and patted my head.
"Yes, father.' I murmured boldly, swallowing my pride so as not to embarrass myself in front of everyone, he took his hand off my head and grimaced. My mother looked over at me and gave me a sweet smile, but I just frowned and turned away from her. Why is she smiling at me? Is she insane or something? Can't she tell for once in her life that something is going on here? Why is it that she is smart in other things but not smart when it comes to her husband and behaves like a puppet, it pisses me off.
Suddenly, I heard a scream, I got up from my seat and looked over at my parents and the crowds, they were all looking happy and were not noticing anything at all. I felt like I was the only one hearing it.
My heartbeat was thumping at a rapid rate, I knew something was awry, I sprinted as fast as I could searching for Lyulph, this screaming was becoming louder and scarier to my ears, I ran as fast as I could but got the shock of my life when I stumbled on blood as it splashes from the grass onto my shoes.
"Are you okay?' I heard a smooth voice behind me, I fronted him and the person I saw before me wasn't someone I knew but a stranger before me.
Mate! Mate! Demon! Mate! Demon! My wolf within me chanted.
He was my mate.
I covered my mouth with my hands in shock, he took a few steps towards me, and I took a step back away from him.
"You can't be my mate, no, you can't…" I paused when he took out a dagger from behind him and pointed it at me and then turned the tip of it to his belly button.
"If we reject each other, one of us has to die, remember?' he spoke.
What the hell was he talking about?
I burst into tears, strength was suddenly drained out of me, I fell to the ground and perceived the thick smell of blood beside me. I looked over to my side and saw two young boys floating on the side of the swimming pool, they seemed pale to the skin and bloated with their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.
I cried out fearfully. "What is this, what have you done to them?" I looked over at him in horror. "WHAT IS THIS?' I puked out the food I had eaten and the drinks I drank out on the grass, he came to me and patted my back, and I shoved his hand off me.
"Who are you?'
He smiled. "I'm sorry if I scared you, I just wanted to kill the Alpha behind you." he pointed behind me. I stepped away from him and looked behind me and saw a dead body and turned to him, taking a few steps away from him again.
"You don't need to be scared of me, I wasn't the one who killed those children, he was the one and was targeting you too, seems like he wanted to have them for dinner." he stood up from his position. "How did you know I will be here?'
"Me!" I pointed at myself and he nodded. "I heard a scream, it was pretty scary and I thought it was my brother so I ran over here.'
"You were the only one who heard those screams?'
Why was I getting scared of this person, he sounds suspicious and no one is here except for me and I'm a bit far away from the festival, shouting for help wouldn't help me and how did he know that I heard those screams, I never mentioned I heard multiple screams to him? Was he the one who invited me here to kill me?
"No, I wasn't the only one.' I faked a smile and lied through my teeth, I will be pretty screwed if he knows I was the only one who heard those screams.
"Who exactly are you and why do you seem so intense?' He took a step closer to me and I took two steps back, frightened of his presence.
I closed my eyes and when I opened them he was in front of me, then he cornered me.
*Lyulph, please I need your help, someone is about to kill me, he looks like a rogue*
I mind-linked him.
"Who exactly are you?' he quickly held my neck and clenched it even tighter, I choked and felt a burn on my throat.
*Please Lyulph, SAVE ME, Lyulph, I beg of you*
