Daisy
I run for a long time and don't hear anyone following me luckily. I stumble and roll down a hill curling up to protect myself. I feel like screaming or crying, I'm not sure which but I know what's going to happen.
'Daisy, what's wrong? Why did you run away from our mate?' Naomi asks worriedly. I guess since she just came to me, she doesn't know how Tristian treats me.
"It won't work... he's Dahlia's boyfriend... and the alpha! He won't ever..." I shake my head and hold myself. "He's going to reject me. There's nothing else to it."
I close my eyes tightly and try not to cry. What kind of sick joke is this? Why would the Moon Goddess choose him as my mate? Was everyone right? Am I just meant to be punished for someone I couldn't even control as a baby?
I hear leaves crunching and freezing as that fresh scent reaches my nose. 'Mate! Give him a chance, Daisy!' I can picture her wagging her tail in delight. Too bad she's going to be thoroughly disappointed.
I stand up to run again but before I can take a step, my arm is grabbed. I shiver as his touch alone is enough to send sparks throughout my body.
I hesitate and then finally meet his eyes. Tristian's eyes are dark amber and I figure this must be his wolf in control. "Mate." He growls and pulls me into him.
"You smell so good, dear..." He purrs in my ears and keeps me close. I gasp out and shiver while Naomi yips and howls in my head.
"P-please let me go," I whisper. A moment later his demeanor changes and his body tenses. A snarl escapes his lips as if he's suddenly displeased.
"You're not Sunny." His wolf growls low. Then I'm shoved away so I stumble forward and use a tree to catch myself. "You're not mine!"
I hesitate before looking back again. His eyes are hazel again and my blood runs cold. I've never seen that look on his face before.
"You're my mate?!" Tristian laughs as if this is some big joke. My heart aches and all I can do is coward under his glare. He looks at me like I'm nothing. The hatred in his eyes makes my eyes burn.
"I-I'm sorry." I choke out and he only scoffs in disgust. My weak answer must make him hate me. "I-I didn't... I didn't mean to..."
He cuts me off. "It doesn't matter. Dahlia will be my Luna. You're nothing to me." His next words cut through my heart. "I, Tristian Parker, Alpha of the Moonlight Pack, reject you Daisy Summers as my mate and Luna."
Pain runs through my body and I fall to my knees. Tears stream down my face while he just turns away without a care in the world. I expected this the moment I found out he was my mate. He was my twin sister's boyfriend and I was merely the lowest-ranking omega in the pack.
