《Bruised (Not Edited)|✔️》Chapter 9
Advertisement
Fixing my cloak so that it concealed my face completely, I stepped out of the car. I walked up to the entrance of the pack house where alpha Benjamin of the Crystal Blue pack was waiting with a polite smile. That smile won't be there for long though.
"Alpha Jayden, to what do we owe the pleasure of you gracing us with your presence?" he asked with a bow.
I nodded in acknowledgement and could see from my peripheral vision that his son was glaring daggers at me. I turned my attention to him and he straightens up quickly and bowed to show his respect.
I smirked in satisfaction and focused my attention back on his father. He ushered me inside and led me to what I presumed was his office. When we got inside he took a seat behind his desk and I took the seat in front of the desk.
"What can I do for you?" he asked.
"Cut the bullshit" I said getting straight to the point.
"I have no idea why you're here" he said looking at me warily.
"Allow me to enlighten you. You're daughter" I said and watched as he stiffened in his seat.
Right now I wasn't the one in control. I had given full control to my wolf, because he was the one who really wanted to come here to kill the man that hurt our mate and allowed everyone else to do the same.
"What about my daughter?" he asked nervously.
I smirked in reply even though he couldn't see my face that was concealed by the cloak. Removing the cloak from my head I decided to reveal my identity to him, not that it would matter or anything since he would be dead in the next few days.
He looked at me in shock as he let out a gasp of surprise. He never looked away as he sat transfixed by my appearance.
I think now is a good time to let you in on a little secret of mine. I'm cursed. That is the reason why I wear a cloak when visiting other packs. One look at me and you'll fall in love, it didn't matter who you were.
My father was able to cast a spell on our territory so that anyone within the region would not fall for my curse. Once I step foot across the pack boundary, then anyone is vulnerable to the curse.
It might seem like a silly little curse if people were just going to fall in love with me, but it was more complex than that. They would get obsessed, and my rejection would lead to their insanity which always ended in them committing suicide.
Right now he has fallen under my spell, which meant that killing him would be much easier since he'll be doing it himself.

He stood from his seat slowly and walked around his desk to stand beside me. He reach out a hand to touch my face and I stopped him. He frowned at that, but that was all I needed for him to go crazy and eventually kill himself in a few days.
"I'll be leaving now" I said. I stood and made my way to the door when he called out.
"Wait. Don't go" he pleaded with me.
I ignored him and closed the door behind me. From outside, I could hear him destroying his office, which only made me smirk. So he might kill himself sooner than expected.
I shrugged my shoulders and left the pack.
...
"How did it go?" Mason asked as soon as I stepped foot inside my office.
"What are you doing?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.
He was currently sitting in my chair, behind my desk with his feet up on the desk. If he was anyone else I would have surely killed him for even being in my office without my permission.
"What does it look like I'm doing?" he asked in a duh tone.
"I was waiting for you to come back with the juicy gossip" he said in a high pitched imitation of his version of a girl voice. I honestly don't even know why we were friends.
"You spend too much time around Katie" I said shaking my head.
"She's my mate so..." he shrugged.
"Speaking of mates, where is-" he started, but was cut off by me.
"You already know how I feel about this" I snapped irritated.
"You haven't even given it a chance. I'm sure if you do you'll see-"
"I'll see how amazing it is to have a mate blah, blah, blah. We'll fall in love blah, blah, blah. We'll have children blah, blah, blah. We'll live happily ever after blah, blah, blah" I said before he could start his usual rant about mates.
"All I'm saying is that you should give her a chance. She might be different from the last one" he said holding up his hands in surrender.
The last one.
I never had a mate before Ava, but I did have a girlfriend with whom I was madly in love with. If you can't already tell, the relationship ended in a disaster. I guess that's why they always warned you not to get in any serious relationship before you found your mate.
It was my 18th birthday. I was overflowing with happiness. I know that what I was about to do was stupid and my parents might never approve of it, but I knew that this was what I wanted. I knew that she would be mine from the first day I laid eyes on her in sixth grade.

Tonight I was going to make it official. Tonight I was going to propose to her in front of everyone at my birthday party.
I couldn't think of anyone that I would rather to rule by my side as my luna. My wolf wasn't quite thrilled of the idea, but I knew he'd come around when he realized that this was what I needed.
She was the definition of perfection. She was 5'5 with long silky blonde hair, curves in all the right places and gorgeous green eyes. She was the most beautiful girl that I had ever seen and I was lucky enough for her to go on a date with me.
Whenever she walked in the room, she had everyone's full attention. She always made heads turn wherever she went. I know that a lot of the guys envied the fact that she chose me. She was mine and I was hers.
I rubbed my sweaty palms on my jeans and blew out a nervous breath. I took out the ring box from my back pocket and admired the ring. It was a platinum gold diamond ring. It had cost a fortune, but she was worth ever last drop.
Shaking off the nerves and mustering up all the courage I had, I left my room and went to find Olivia. I went to her room and walked inside without knocking, because that was something that we usually did. I didn't see her anywhere inside, so she must have already left for the party.
Exiting her room, I then made my way to the ballroom where the party was being held. The party was in full swing despite my absence. I think this party was more for my parents than me, because I had no idea who half of these people were.
"Son we have been looking all over for you" my dad said tapping my shoulder from behind.
"I'm looking for Olivia. Have you seen her?" I asked, wanting to find her already.
"No. There are a few people here that we'd like you meet" he said, already dragging me off in the opposite direction of where I was going.
Here we go again.
I was introduced to people after people, and after that entire introduction I still couldn't remember their names. I was more focused on finding Olivia than anything else.
Just when I was about to excuse myself from a group of girls who were way too close from my liking, I saw her. She walked outside with another boy following close behind.
Quickly excusing myself from the group, I followed behind them. I was now outside in the backyard and I had no idea which direction they ran off to. Focusing on my surroundings, I listened keenly for any form of movement.
Not too long after did I hear a moan. I walked in the direction of where the noise was coming from with my heart beating wildly in my chest from fear of what was behind the corner.
"Faster, faster, faster, yes, right there" I heard a familiar voice moan.
I froze in place when my mind finally caught up with what was happening behind the corner. Still in disbelief that she would cheat on me, I walked around the corner and there she was. The guy had her up against the wall with her smooth tanned legs wrapped around his torso. Her dress had ridden up to bunch round her waist.
They had no idea that I was there as they were both too caught up in the moment. I stood there like an idiot watching the guy have sex with my girlfriend.
Girlfriend.
That word had a bitter taste to it.
Clearing my throat, their attention finally snapped to me and she immediately pushed him off her and fixed her dress.
"It's not what it looks like" she said walking towards me.
"Oh really?" I asked with sarcasm dripping from my voice.
"Who is this dude?" the guy asked fixing his pants.
"Her boyfriend, correction, ex-boyfriend" I snapped at the imbecile. He laughed at my response.
"You are so stupid. Did you really think that Olivia was yours?" he smirked and I remained quiet.
"Olivia is a whore that I paid to seduce you for information. She was the one leaking information about your pack. She is the reason for all those rogue attacks" he continued with a chuckle.
"Is this true?" I turned my attention to her.
She looked down ashamed and that was enough to confirm that what he was saying was true. After that, all I saw was red. I didn't even realize what had happened until it was too late.
I was covered in the blood of my ex-girlfriend and the dickhead that she was screwing. Their lifeless bodies were ripped apart on the ground.
End of Flashback
That was how I murdered the first love of my life. That is the reason why I don't trust women. That was the reason why I was relieved when I couldn't find my mate. My father was the one who pestered me to search for my mate and when I came up short, I was relieved and sad at the same time.
Now I have her and I don't know what to do. Not having any idea how to handle the situation I decided to do the next best thing.
So I ignored her.
