Mine – The Alpha's Possession by Kylie

CHAPTER 24

I was standing there waiting for an answer while he just stood there staring at me waiting for his answer

but all I was.

met with was silence. And that was all the

answer I needed. So I shook my head and I grabbed my bag and I started walking through the woods

again.

I headed back towards the pack because I still intended on graduating high school but I wasn’t ready to

forgive my mother yet. She hurt me too badly and I didn’t really have anywhere else to go. So I headed

towards the watering hole where we swim in the summer, even though I knew that it was more heavily

protected now by guards, but I was able to set up camp there knowing that I had a supply of water and I

could shower at school

every morning. I knew that I didn’t need

to rely on anyone.

If I got hungry then I would be able to shift into Ava and go hunting in the woods for food. That was easy

enough so

that I wouldn’t starve. This is where it

really paid off to be a werewolf.

I built a fire and everything and I had a blanket in my bag that I could lie on, instead of the hard ground

and I was all set. I could hear the patrols going past but I didn’t pay them any attention. The only

downside was that the Alpha knew where I was. I didn’t want anyone to know

where I was.

When I woke up the next morning after a few hours of sleep, the sun was just starting to rise and I was a

little stiff and

sore but it wasn’t too bad. I could handle

So I grabbed my school bag and a change of clothes and I headed to the

school.

I went to the locker room and had a shower and got ready for school. But when I stopped and looked in

the mirror I realized that it was my birthday today. I was 18 years old today and instead of spending it

with my mate and my friends, I told them to forget about my birthday

because my mate was a prick. But they

didn’t know about the mate part.

I went to the library to do my homework

and I got on one of the computer to check

my email and there was one from the

school. It was my new day planner for school since I was put in the accelerated classes. So I printed it

out.

When I turned around to head back to my table I saw Alpha Jackson standing in the hallway looking

through the window at me. And that’s when I felt it. The first time I felt the full strength of the pull. I had to

grab on to the chair that I was

standing next to, and if this is what he has been feeling ever since he met me,

then how could he even consider rejecting

It was so strong that I wanted to run

to him now.

Ava perked up in my head and no matter how hard I tried to push her back down,

she wasn’t doing what she was told. She

wasn’t going anywhere. But I slowly managed to stand up straight and catch

my breath and I shook off that feeling and I stopped looking at him. I was just glad that I could only see

him. If I caught his scent then I was definitely in trouble.

I went back to my table in the library with my back to him and took a deep breath to steady myself and I

started into my homework again.

How the hell was I going to survive like this? How was I going to stay away from him when I knew that he

was all I wanted.

And if I got close enough to him to catch his scent then what was I going to do? He was here at school

almost every day. I was so confused that I was actually considering quitting school right now just so I

didn’t have to be around him.

When the bell rang I went to my first class and there were only 8 kids in the class. The accelerated

program was not for

everyone. And I was one of the lucky few

that was allowed in the class. The others

were there because they were just smart. I

was there because I was smart and I wanted out of school sooner. They

planned on staying for the rest of the year. Although I don’t know why.

The class was pretty chill compared to all the other classes and the teacher was

pretty great. He got the whole class in on conversations and it wasn’t just the

teacher standing in front of a class full of

students reading from a text book. This

was more interactive and a lot more fun. I

actually enjoyed it.

At lunch time I grabbed some food from the cafeteria and I headed outside to eat it under a tree while I

was reading. But I was soon joined by Edward, Hannah, Aria and Parker. None of them mentioned my

birthday but I guess they didn’t want me to be alone today.

Alright. I have to say this. What the hell is going on with the Alpha today? He is acting like a complete

creeper.” Hannah says. And I turned around to see Alpha Jackson standing inside the hallway of the

school watching us through one of the windows.

“Who the hell knows or cares?” I asked looking away and getting back to my

lunch.

“Is everything alright with you? You

seem a little off.” Parker says. And I give

them my best fake smile.

“I’ve just had a bad couple of days.

That’s all.” I say.

‘Alright. Are you sure that’s all it is?” He

asked.

“Positive. Don’t worry about me. I’m fine. “I say.

Alright then. If you say so.” He says.

After school that day I left on my own and headed straight for the watering hole. All my stuff was still

there and didn’t look like it had been touched all day. So I guess the warriors knew to stay away from it.

But I sat there leaning up against a

boulder with my head towards the sky and my eyes closed.

“I guess this wasn’t the 18th birthday

that you were expecting, was it?” A

women asked me and I looked down at

the ground and standing in front of me

was Layla.

“Did I fall asleep?” I asked looking around. But I was still at the watering

hole. I wasn’t in Morda.

No. I’m here. In your world.” She say

smiling softly at me.

“Why?” I asked.

Because you look like you need a friend. ” She says sitting on the boulder next to

1.

“Well, you’re wrong. I’m fine.” I say.

“You know that only works on your

werewolf friends, right. I know that

you’re not fine. We all know that you’re

not fine.” She says.

“Who is ‘we all’?” I asked confused

looking up at her.

“Your father. He really wants to see you.”

She says.

“Well, maybe I don’t want to see him. He

never tried to see me before.” I say

resting my head back again and closing

my eyes.

Taylor. Your father stayed away for your protection. It was safer for everyone to think that you were

werewolf and not

part faerie.” She says.

“And why is that? Why would I be in danger?” I asked.

“Because your father is powerful in the faerie world. A lot of people resent him for leaving this realm and

going to the faerie land. And taking all of us with him. ” She says.

“Wait a minute. Are you saying that my

father created the faerie realm?” I asked

looking at her again in disbelief.

“Well, he is our King.” She says.

“Shut the fuck up.” I say in shock. And she didn’t respond to that. She just

looked at me. I knew that she wasn’t

lying. I could just tell. I don’t know how, but I could just tell.

He wants you to come home to Morda.”

She says.

And leave here?” I asked.

“Yes. He wants you to see what your life can really be like.” She says trying desperately to convince me.

“I don’t know about that.” I say looking around.

Patrols are coming back this way. You don’t need to decide straight away. But you do need to decide. I’ll

see you soon.”

She says. And she vanished in thin air.

‘Taylor.” I heard someone sing out. And

I looked to the left of me and Alpha Jackson was standing there. Just at the same time the wind changed

and I caught

his scent.

I needed to completely ground myself and I closed my eyes and tried not to breathe out of my nose but

still take deep breaths before I could look at him again.

When I opened my eyes I looked straight

at him and he was even more irresistible

than he was before today. Before the mate bond was recognised. I didn’t want him here. I needed him to

go. I can’t do this

now. I can’t take this rejection. Not now.
