novelxo Chapter 38 It Never Ends
Third Person POV
Hunter and Kimberley were having lunch with Xander and his beta when Sabrina stormed in, stomping her feet.
One didn't have to guess if she was angry, it was clearly written all over her beautiful young face. "Oh no..." Xander says looking at his mate march her way towards them. His beta, Lucas stands up and bows his head when Sabrina walks past him, running out of the room to avoid feeling Sabrina's wrath.
Sabrina stops in front of her father, Hunter and her mother.
"For people trying to play parent, withholding important information is not getting you any points. In fact, you are losing them. How am I supposed to trust any of you if not even one of you can be completely honest and transparent with me?" Sabrina says, folding her arms for that added effect. Xander stands up to stand beside Sabrina. His face had worry written all over it.
"Sabrina Kimberley Trent, you watch your tone when speaking to your elders young lady." Her mother says and Sabrina let's out a chuckle.
"She is not a Trent!" Hunter says banging his hand on the table but everyone ignored his mini outburst.
"That should be the least of your problems, Kimberly!” Sabrina states, unfolding her arms to put them palm down on the dinner table.
"What is it Sabrina?" Hunter asks, not one sign of emotion on his face.
"I was told that if I go up there, I would meet my true mate. That was not part of the plan! I have a mate that I want, that I love. I want to spend forever with Xander and now this?" Sabrina says, Xander stepping back from her.
He looks at Sabrina's parents and back at Sabrina.
"A true mate?" Xander asked and everyone turned to face him.
"X, I just found out.” Sabrina says to Xander.
"Calm down Sabrina. We don't even know if he’s alive. Ethia could have killed him." Kimberly says but Hunter rolls his eyes.
"We have our own world there too. Just as the moon pairs you here, we are paired from birth. The minute you were born, your mate was born. That's how we know and that's how it works." Hunter said looking at Sabriba.
He stands up and makes his way to Xander but Xander steps back, his eyes glassy.
"I welcomed you all in my pack. Accepted the drama you all came with because I love Sabrina and Adrastos but this is something else. I would have appreciated some honesty.” Xander says.
"That was for Sabrina to figure out on her own.” Hunter says, leaving no room for an argument.
"I WOULD HAVE APPRECIATED SOME FUCKEN HONESTY!" Xander shouted, shocking everyone. Since Sabrina met him, he has always been cool, calm and collected but this was not it.
"It never fucken ends with all of you. Who's coming next? A grandfather that wants his throne back? A brother that does not want your son to take over? Is Sabrina's mate going to come here and kill me?" Xander says, running his hand through his hair.
Sabrina was frozen in place. Xander was very angry and this was the first time he was lashing out like this in front of her.
"I want you both out of my house and off my pack grounds in the next 30 minutes.” Xander says before walking away.
"We are your superiors boy! You better watch yourself." Hunter says to Xander and Xander scoffs, turning around, walking towards Hunter.
They were standing so close to each other, their noses were almost touching.
"Get. Out. Of. My. House." He says through gritted teeth and walked away.
Hunter and Kimberly turned to face Sabrina. All Sabrina wanted to do right now is chase after her mate but she was not sure if Xander had kicked her out too.
She wouldn't blame him. All she has done is bring chaos in to his life and all he has been is understanding. Was it also wrong that Sabrina was madly turned on by that outburst?
Hunter was too angry by the disrespect shown that he could not pick up Sabrina's enticement but Kimberly knew that look and before Hunter would notice, she disappeared off with him, leaving Sabrina all alone with her thoughts.
Her very wild and guilty thoughts.
A door banging broke her sex train of thought and she ran out of the room in search of Xander. His scent led her to his office, where a loud growl could be heard from outside the door. Followed by things breaking. Sabrina barged in to the office to find Xander on his knees, pulling at his hair in frustration.
Broken furniture covering the entire floor.
She tried feeling him out through their bond but his wall was up. He had closed her out. Sabrina closed the office door before Xander's eyes connected with hers.
"What are we going to do?" Xander asks in a barely audible tone but Sabrina's wonderful hearing skills picked that up.
Sabrina went down on her knees in front of Xander and pulled him in for a kiss. The kiss was soft, slow and filled with intense emotion. This was Sabrina trying to give Xander some reassurance about who has her heart, who she belonged to.
Xander returned the kiss with equal if not more fervor, pouring out his love to Sabrina, the woman who will always have his heart.
They eventually pulled apart, to catch their breath but to also face reality. One look at Xander and Sabrina knew they were in trouble.
"If you meet your true mate, that is destiny. Who are we to fight it? I was raised to respect the mate bond Sabrina, fighting it goes against what I believe in." Xander says as Sabrina shakes her head no. "You don't have to fight it, I will. I will fight for the both of us.” Sabrina says to Xander and he chuckles.
I wanted his head. How dare he touch my mate!
"I am here to see the luna. I will only leave once I've seen her, I promise I won't do any damage." I say and Hunter let's out a sigh.
I needed confirmation that she was the one, the one woman who will have my heart and soul. I needed to look in to her eyes. I couldn't possibly leave after having her scent take over me like this and I won't leave. I need to smell her scent on her before I leave, I need an image of her in my head.
My heart was broken already but she is my true mate and that alone was enough reason to see her, look in to her eyes just this once.
"Who are you and why are you here for my luna?" The alpha asks and I chuckle at his words.
"I will not answer to you, earthling.” I say and he growls at me.
"Then it's best you leave our pack if you will not show an ounce of respect. I don't care where you come from but things work differently on earth and us earthlings don't appreciate your rude and unwanted presence.” She said to me.
My mouth opened but nothing could come out.
My unwanted presence?
Could she not feel the pull? We locked eyes and even when I stepped closer, she kept still. Wrapping her tiny hand in the alpha's hand.
She kept her eyes on me but there was no wanting, no need. The need to make her mine was too strong but she was void of any emotion. I could feel my heart breaking. Even though in our world there was no rejecting your mate, her rejection right now killed me.
I went from being hurt to angry. How dare she deny sacred law like that? I saved myself for her and here she was reeking of this earthlings scent!
I closed my eyes, taking deep breaths. Her scene calming me. I opened my eyes to look at her, she was still looking at me.
Was that hurt in her eyes? Was she feeling the mate pull too?
I will not force things. When she is ready, I'll be there.
"You know who I am to you. I won't force things but this will eat at you. You know where to find me when your earthling alpha can't scratch your itch anymore after meeting me.” I say before disappearing off.
My brother and friend followed after me and we ended up back in my room.
"She is your mate.” My brother says and I nod. I wanted to, I needed to break something.
"Well, she is beautiful. Just as our father's all wanted Kimberly, she's going to cause the same rift up here." My friend says, making me chuckle.
My father storms in, anger clear on his face.
"You went to earth? Have you all lost your minds?" My father shouts.
"She's my mate dad.” I say.
"Do you have any idea what Hunter would have done to all of you had he learned that you are my children?" He says and I shake my head no.
"It was a risk I was willing to take to see if she and I were mates. I would do it again.” I say and my father chuckles loudly.
"And where is she? Weren't you supposed to mark her upon meeting and bring her back to her rightful home?" My father asks and I look down.
"She is already mated.” I say and he chuckles again.
"As expected. She also has an earthling child, are you aware of this?" He says and I nod my head yes, still looking at the floor.
"Just allow your mother and I to arrange your wedding. Jane is a beautiful girl and comes from a well standing family.” My dad says to me and I throw a lamp, hitting the wall before shattering in to pieces.
"I don't want Jane or any other girl! Especially after meeting my mate, how do you suggest my wolf
deal with all of this? We want our mate and that's that!" I say.
"You will not mate with her and bring that earthling child to our home." My father says and this time, I chuckle.
"You forget who she is. It is I father, who will have to move in to her home as she is from the first family. Have you forgotten how the order works? She is of higher rank.” I say and my father shakes his head no.
"Not if I can do anything about it.” He says and I walk closer to him
"Grandfather has already put a target on our heads, no thanks to his greed and now you want to anger Hunter even more? Oh that's just dandy isn't it?" I say to my dad.
"Once he finds out who you are, what I plan to do will be nothing compared to the anger he will harbor for you because you are my son. Just be with Jane, she loves you and will give you healthy children.” Father says and I growl.
"I'd rather die than take on another mate.” I say and my father laughs at me.
"Well isn't that funny? Your mate did exactly that. Here you are alone and feeling rejected and she is in the arms of someone else.” My father says.
"I want everyone out of my room. Now." I say, leaving no room for a response as I walk to my balcony.
They all leave, my brother forcing my dad out.
Maybe I am a fool, a fool for thinking she would wait for me.
"How could I wait for you? I had no clue about this other world.” A sweet voice said.
I quickly turn around to come face to face with my mate. Her beauty knew no bounds. How could someone be this beautiful?
No wonder earthlings wanted her as their luna. What normal or even a crazy man wouldn't want her? Her beauty was definitely not of that world. Not even of mine.
She walks closer to me and holds her hand out.
"Hi, I'm Sabrina.” She says and I look in her eyes and back down at her hand, then back up at her. She chuckles and grabs my hand, placing her hand in mine and shakes them.
I raise my eyebrow at her and she smiles. Could she not feel the electric sparks that took over when we touched?
My dick was up and ready to go, my wolf was begging me to take her right now.
"Your name?" She asks and I shake my head to get rid of all the wild thoughts going on in my head. "How did you get in?" I ask, this palace was well guarded and even though she is from the first family, she was raised on earth.
Her combat skills couldn't possibly be up to par with us here. She may be stronger, more powerful but her being on earth, robbed her of this world's ways and if somebody wanted her dead, they probably could get away with it.
I gently pushed her in to my room, closing the doors that lead to the balcony so nobody could see her or smell her.
Wait.
I couldn't smell her, I still can't. I sniff around her and there was no scent.
"I'm not completely clueless.” She says to me with a smile.
"Please don't hide your scent from me." I say and she lets it out. It hits me with so much force, I fall to my knees in front of her.
I was suffocating in her scent and I wanted to die in it.
She helped me up, her smile never fading.
"How are you so beautiful?" I say and she chuckles.
"That is just the mate bond talking.” She says and I shake my head no.
"Then maybe my brother and friend are mated to you too since they said the same thing the minute we got back.” I say and her cheeks flush.
"Your name?" She asks again.
"That is of no use if we will not be together.” I say, sadness taking over me.
"I feel it too. I'm just able to fight it because I love him. I want to fight it because I love him. He is a good man and I've been through so much that I truly believe I deserve a love from him. Many might say he deserves better and I believe it too, it's just that his love is unconditional. It is pure and I've prayed day and night for that love. We may be true mates but he is my true love and I will not let him go." She says to me, her eyes holding so much honesty.
"I won't ask you to. You are immortal, being your true mate will make me immortal too. He will grow old and die, what's a few sixty more years when we could live for over a thousand years?" I say.
"I still don't know how any of this works and my mother tells me I can't reject you but I still won't ask you to wait for me. I will fulfill my duties as the moon goddess and daughter of the first family but I can't be your mate. I'm sorry." She says to me, kissing my cheek before disappearing.
My brother barges in to my room with my father right behind him.
"She was here?" My brother asks and I nod my head yes, smiling as I touch my cheek where lips touched a few seconds ago.
"How did she enter without being detected?" My father asked.
"She is Hunter's daughter. What other reason do you need?" I ask, before walking past them and out of my room
I may not have Sabrina now but we will have all of eternity together. Something she and her alpha will never have.
I have to go see my grandmother. I am her true mate after all. A few things need to be explained.
I knocked on my grandmother's bedroom door.
"Enter." She said and I opened the door to find her in bed. She raises her head and sniffs at me. "So you met her?" She asks smiling and I nod my head yes.
"Have you unlocked your immortality yet?" She asks me and I shake my head no.
"Very soon, that will be her gift to you. Whether she knows it or not, you are true mates which means you are destined to live this life together, however long. Find the patience son, right your grandfather's Wrongs so both families can come together and accept that child. If you don't, he will be your undoing. Love always wins boy." She says before closing her eyes.
My grandmother was old and she's dying slowly after my grandfather was killed by my father. It is also killing her that her own son would kill his own father.
I sat on my grandmother's bed. Do I hate the child? I don't even know. What I know is that I want Sabrina and if all I had to do was wait, I would. I've been waiting anyway, I had more days to waste since I was to become an immortal.
Sabrina has at least a couple thousand years before the next moon goddess is born. I will go to earth, learn the life of the earthlings so I can learn the ways of my true mate. I will live in a pack and work my way up to alpha status.
I will take an earth mate and learn earthlings love language while she comes here to learn our ways I will not stand in her way of loving her mate. She respects mate law just like me after all.
"I will see you again Sabrina, until then, good luck.” I say before disappearing off to a new life on earth.
