Chapter 4- Andrew

591 Words
I was glad when Alex was due back off his honeymoon, the feeling of unease has not left me the whole time he was away, plus with mother having another mini stroke it was hard being here by myself to deal with it. However even after he got home and I told him about mother the feeling didn’t ease, in fact in just seemed to get worse. When Alex was away I picked an unallocated house for him and his wife. It’s in a newly built exclusive estate and it’s a decent house, there is plenty of room for them and any children that come along, and it was only when I thought of what Alex has to look forward to that I felt a pang in my chest, I’ve been trying to deny what this is about but denying it doesn’t make it any better.  Anna.  I haven’t stopped thinking of the sweet girl from Alex’s wedding. My fated mate. I think about her all day and dream about her at night.  It’s pointless to do so, I cannot claim her. I’m promised to Jessica Royle in a contacted agreement for an alliance between my pack and her fathers, the Indigo Moon Pack. No matter how much I want her and cannot stop thinking about her, I have to put my pack and my family first.  I can’t have her, the beautiful and clever woman intended for me, sent to me as a blessing from the wretched moon goddess! Dangled in front of me, tormenting me ‘she’s all yours but you can’t have her’ well f**k the moon goddess. Alex and Katy invited me to lunch today, they wanted to thank me for the house, and while I was there Katy was on the phone to Anna, my pulse quickened, my stomach started turning and my wolf was whining. I was trying to think of ways I could talk to her, when Katy squealed. “Is it true Andrew? Anna has just told me!”  I'm shocked but reply “yes” and I have to admit I’m disappointed to find she hasn’t told Katy she’s my mate, she’s told her about my promise to allow her to visit Katy whenever she wants.  I have got to pull myself together, I can hear Katy asking Alex if Anna can stay and Alex redirects her to me “it’s fine by me sweet pea, whatever makes you happy but double check with Andy”. Katy looks at me “a promise is a promise, she needs to clear it with her alpha and her aunt and Alex must drive her to keep her safe”. My sister in law kisses me on the cheek “thank you Andrew, Anna says thank you too!” And she’s off making plans leaving me with my mind whirling away. I managed to put off the announcement of my ‘engagement’ to Jessica Royle when my mother took a turn for the worse, told alpha Malcolm I would be in contact when things settle down.  I feel like I’m buying myself time until I can sort out my feelings for Anna, it is irrational for me to be like this, she just a normal girl, I can forget her, I have too.
