Lycan’s Mate

15. No more gossip part 1

Manuel POV

This life is to serve people, not damage them. There are a billion ways to hurt, but I'm beginning to grow weary of her harming my family for her thoughtless thinking. Having to aid mom in a mistake Giovana made on purpose was a difficult moment for me.

I do love her, but I'm beginning to wonder whether that's enough to keep us together. When I consider the situation and how she is doing, I sense a mental connection emanating from her.

I've tried using mind connecting to get in touch with our Alpha, but I'm also unable to reach Doc. I seem to be preventing Soza and Warrior Luis from connecting their minds.

The main pack house of the nation has arrived and wants to talk with the Alpha, Doctor, and Warrior. Because they won't let me, kindly let them know on my behalf. I haven't seen her since this morning, and she didn't even attempt to say hello or inquire about how I'm doing.

I sense her distance and am aware that she is upset by what my mother and brother told me, but there is no way to stop it. She started talking about my family without taking into account their sentiments, and because I had already dealt with her, I moved to my mother to take her position so that I could direct my thoughts to help them be more productive.

I start to deliver the word to them directly while cleaning the instruments in their room, adding my mother, the Alpha, and Lu. Hey, Giovana just informed me that the pack house would be visited. They want to speak with the Alpha, the doctor, and the top warrior. They are from the main pack home. Along with the patients and our criminal, I'll remain here.

Don't lash out at my friend, please. Later, she and I shall speak. I'm over with this as well. Giovana has that influence on everyone, so I don't blame Ma for responding quickly and seeming a little irritated. Thank you for the message, baby. Lu and I will leave my hospital in your care as well as them with you when we meet with our Alpha.

Cotorra Alpha responded as if on cue, stumbling to avoid being heard because he seemed to be busy—not just busy with paperwork, but preoccupied with Luna Zorangel. "We'll be returning soon, Luis. After this visit, please get back to your friend; she needs you," It's already 7:18 p.m.; she'll be leaving work shortly.

Luis was the last to respond, and his straightforward response made us giggle in our minds because of the wired manner he talked. Yes Alpha, I said before cutting the mental contact to chuckle a little.

To move, they pack their belongings. I tidy up to shut this room once they go since I don't want to remain with this abuser. After completing my rounds, I collect my belongings and sign out for the day. I go through Diana's room first, where she is speaking with Carlos. They engage in some conversation with me, so I am glad to know they are secure. Diana feels a little nervous, but I reassure her that she is secure. Given that there is a criminal in the hospital's basement, Luis fled the building under close surveillance. I change out of my work attire and enter the building wearing my regular shirt and shorts. I find a bag in the living room when I arrive home. What?

Giovana is grabbing some things as I enter our room, so I ask, "What are you doing?" Giovana approaches her with her luggage and says, "Leaving." As soon as she said that, I crossed my arms and let her go. I carelessly questioned, "Really?" as I cast my gaze to the ground. Giovana remarks while exaggerating her sigh and dropping her baggage. Yes, it is obvious that I cannot remain where I am not desired. I responded to her because she had made me feel angry, which is very hard to obtain from me since I am very much like my mother and not a guy to poke about like my father. “Giovana Then halt. You are aware of the truth in this. She blinked and murmured with a pained expression after I yelled at her. "I have a defect, but I know how to survive, so what? Everyone does, but Manuel, it's excessive to belittle me for them. Giovana gave me the impression that I wasn't really trying and that I was being insensitive to her sentiments, but in reality, this was only an alibi for her refusal to mature.

I continued yelling at her because I was tired of hearing from her. "Are you chatting?" Giovana, that is a fatal defect. Not just a minor thing, either. She remained motionless and opened up to me, and as I let my sensations to flow back to her, she started to tremble as a result of the discomfort and dread I could sense in her. As she said, Giovana laudably swallowed. "Then disregard me. Either you're with me, or you're not. I snarled at her lack of understanding of the true issue and gave her one more opportunity since she was an i***t. "Pardon me?"

Giovana wasn't going to allow herself to heal because, as usual, she believed that other people's problems with her were really caused by their poisonous traits, not the other way around. You have the option; I'm sick of covering this with little bandages. I responded as she said while bending to retrieve her stuff. Do you prefer that I reject you and send you back to your pack, or do you prefer that I merely accept your flaw? It's 11 o'clock, Giovana. You will become a rogue, where the heck are you going in the middle of the night. Do you want it, exactly? She seemed much more wounded than she already appeared to be, which is precisely how she felt about us. Her response irritated me when I heard it. It's preferable than being here. My parents had the same impact on other people, so I snarled louder and caused her to shudder from my aura. Being finished, I wanted her assurance since I wasn't going to make a deal with her taking it back as she always did. "Are you kidding me?" I said. Giovanna responded without of any emotion, not even from our relationship. “No.”

She picks up her luggage and heads towards the living room, but I stop her before she gets there because I'm sick to death of this. I pull out my phone and contact Solimar, telling her that I need to send Giovana to her pack in an hour. Solimar replies with a time and location for Giovana to wait in the pack house in a room until she is picked up, leaving me with just one more assignment. "Giovana, I texted you the information you need. Follow me and text or contact me if something urgent comes up. I will respond as quickly as I can. There are many things I can handle, but this is by far the worst. She stares at her phone and follows me as we go. I can sense her betrayal at my decision, but I am done. I take her bag as we silently make our way to the pack house, where I park the vehicle, get out, and carry her bag inside before introducing her to us. Solimar is radiant and has a bloated tummy.

She leads the way to Giovana's bedroom. As soon as the door opens, I leave her luggage at the door and just stop the conversation there. I'm Manuel Martin Soza. You are not to be my partner, Giovana Colon Hernandez. I can't help but weep despite the ache in my body and chest, and it irritates me that she doesn't even seem to cry. I wonder when I see her lack of response. Did she really truly love me? You had enough of my whining, right?

When Manuel Martines Soza responds, "I, Giovana Colon Hernandez, accept your rejection," The door to her room is shut. I spy Solimar with her lips covered. She embraces me and I give her a tight hug in return despite the sorrow on her face from seeing how callous Giovana is. I am aware of my discomfort, but this is much worse. My one friend was my one and only. I'm weeping and holding my sister-in-law right now since my partner rejected me tonight and I felt nothing from her.

After breaking off our embrace, Solimar follows me into the kitchen where he retrieves two miniature ice creams. I giggle at her response while grinning. She responds with a grin, "Ice cream, for sure she is a nice buddy." She acknowledged that she was imperfect. Ice cream was my go-to comfort food whenever I had a terrible breakup. Once she has done preparing them, she begins. “Here.” I accept my while grinning. I take a mouthful and reply, "Thanks, I definitely agree with your to go." Solimar chuckles as she carries on our chat as we eat our ice cream. Now that you are a free wolf, you can stop causing trouble. Raising my eyebrows, I sound more flustered and ill than usual in what I say. "Yes, it is one of my smaller issues. I just want to be with my partner. Selene, I hope you understand I meant no harm. She often offers rejected people another opportunity. I reflect on how I lost the thing I loved most in this life, but I refuse to let it define who I am or how much I value my family.
