Goddess’s Design His Fated Mate by Pooja

Chapter 24

Willow

“I will struggle, bleed, and even die to get you back, Willow. But there is no way

that I will ever willingly let you go, mate…”

After being called his mate for the first tsix years, Ceri was no longer under

my control. All our past memories crushed the both of us under their wait to the

point where I was able to break out of his possessive hold, give control to Ceir

by shifting into my wolf, and run back to the packhouse.The guests had returned

to their homes, but once I entered the packhouse I found Ella and Oran waiting

there.

Ella stood up at the sight of Ceri, “Willow…can we talk?” she asked, but the mere

glimpse of her raised pain in my heart as the pack members’ claim of her

unavoidable marriage to Reuben burrowed a bleeding hole in my chest.

Ignoring her like she was invisible, I passed by her, and climbed the stairs to my

bedroom. Once I entered my room, I shifted back and closed the door behind

before scumbling to tears.

His stubbornness in never lettinggo was incinerating my soul, when he was

the one that had not wanted to hold on tothat day six years ago. His

obsession with redemption for the crimes that he had committed against me

could never be undone. It was compounded by his oath to reclaimwhen he

was already going to be bound to another woman, which made my heart bleed.

His confession of love and him askingto let him love me, when we are going

to reject each other, tore at my heart.

I closed my eyes and lay on the fioor for hours until the night fell. My tears had

long since dried but my heart and soul were as cold as the darkness in the sky. I

had locked myself in this room not even wanting to face the memories of the

day that I had recognized Reuben as my soulmate, then afterwards we had

made love in that car. Slowly those precious memories mixed with my

nightmares that had reared their ugly heads as my unexpected pregnancy

burned my whole world down to cinders.

When the first rays of morning light filtered through the curtains, I got out of the

bed and stood in front of the mirror inspecting myself. One thing was for certain

I could not trust Reuben. Believing Reuben was just going to leadto another

heartbreak. I could not give him another chance or I was going to end up in the

spathetic condition I was in six years ago. I could not let my heart follow

that forbidden path that was bound to end in rejection.

It was eight in the morning when I exited the packhouse with Wyatt and Lori. I

dressed for the day and fed them on tso that everyone would be ready to

drop them off at the shifters kindergarten.

“Lori, obey the teachers and remember to finish your food, okay?” I bent down

slightly to k*ss both of my precious children that looked absolutely adorable in

the morning. “Wyatt, look out for your sister in the kindergarten and no fighting,

okay?” I reminded them again. I had started sending them to kindergarten

today, thankfully there was no problem so far.

“Okay!” Both of them obediently nodded and k*ssed my checks. I smiled,

leading both of them towards the car.

“Mommy, where is daddy?” Wyatt looked up atwhile Lori was searching the

yard for Reuben like always.

I was silent for a couple of seconds. I had not felt him in the next room the

whole night so he had not returned to the packhouse last night. I replied in a

casual tone, “I don’t know.”

Ceri made a few noises in my mind at the mention of Reuben. I had decided to

return to my normal life and try to forget everything that had happened

yesterday.

Just as I pulled out my car keys, a car parked in front of us. As the car window

slid down Mia’s face cto view.

“Good morning,” she smiled atas she got out of the car.

“Good morning,” I smiled back softly, she was studying my expression.

“Are you okay?” she asked worriedly. “Yesterday, you did not look so good when

the Alpha… and you ran away…” she bit her l*p guiltily, “Actually, I wanted to

cand visit you after that but I was hesitant since you could misinterpret my

approach.”

“It’s okay, I am fine,” I nodded with an assuring smile. Since I had left my room

that morning, I had noticed that everyone in the pack was slightly hesitant to

approach me. It was obvious that no one wanted any contact withto be

misunderstood that they had a hidden agenda towards the Alpha’s soulmate. Of

course none of them wanted to cross the line with Ella either, who remained

Reuben’s fiancee. The people close to her obviously would not be comfortable

with me.

“Willow…” she took my hand gently in hers. “I don’t know what is happening

between the Alpha and you but trust me, your status as the Alpha’s soulmate or

anything will not impact our friendship. If you want to talk about anything, I will

always be here for you,”

she hugged me.

Her sincere words moved me, “Thank you,” I returned her hug.

I took a deep breath, feeling good to have a friend like Mia. We pulled away and

I asked her, “How cyou are here this early? If I am correct, you have told me

that you just got a part-tjob?”

“That’s why I am here. To start my part tjob,” she remarked.

“Your part tjob is here?” I was so confused.

She grinned, “Actually after we talked about kindergarten for our little Alphas,

Alpha Reuben offereda part tjob driving them to kindergarten. So from

now on I will be Wyatt and Lori’s personal driver!” She exclaimed happily, while I

stood there shocked speechless.

I knew Mia’s father and brother worked as drivers for the high ranking wolves in

the pack. However, Mia becoming my children’s driver tookby surprise. I was

surely going to have to look for a driver for them since I was going to be busy

working on fashion projects. Now that I was going to be handling my work from

America. On top of that, I had to go to Wade Moon soon to drop the papers off

with Alpha Benjamin. All of that made it really difficult forto drive Wyatt and

Lori to kindergarten everyday.

I just did not understand why Reuben suddenly hired a driver to take Wyatt and

Lori to kindergarten? My brows frowned when the thought of him not wanting
