Cassie's POV
I sighed as I fell back on my seat unhappily.
"Hey, hey, hey girlie!" my best friends squealed happily running up to me, throwing their arms around me.
"Hey," I replied glumly.
"Aww, what's going on?" asked Amber pouting, taking the seat next to me as Emma sat next to Amber.
"Nothing, just upset to get back to school," I said then I brightened, "But I couldn't wait to see you guys!"
"So? How was London? Did you get me anything?" asked Emma, her eyes sparkling.
I laughed and opened my shoulder bag, "Yes, of course idiots. Emma, your snow globe and Amber, your candy that you wanted from Switzerland. I stopped on the way, so I decided to get some candy for you lucky ducks."
They squealed, "I love you!"
I smiled, "I'm glad you like them."
Em was shaking her snow globe and Amber was munching on her chocolate. She had a strange obsession with chocolate, she's happy whenever she's around chocolate.
"Class, class, settle down. Amber, please put away the chocolate," said the English teacher, Mrs. Mintouski (min-tow-ski).
Amber looked at her chocolate longingly before putting it away.
"Okay, so we have a new student! Please welcome him, he's just moved from London," said Mrs. Mintouski.
Ohh, a British boy. Does he have an accent?
"His name is Conner Brady and welcome him with open arms," said Mrs. Mintouski and he walked in right on que.
The minute I saw him look up and immediately lock eyes with mine, my heart stopped for a beat. He was gorgeous. He had amazing blue green eyes and the silky brown hair that you just so badly wanted to run your hands through.
My heart started beating fast.
Mate! my wolf screamed at me.
His eyes were full of emotion, love, adoration, and awe, suddenly, it was all wiped away, his eyes cold and emotionless.
"Conner, if you would please, introduce yourself," said Mrs. Mintouski.
"I'm from London," he said and just sat down, next to me, it was the only available.
He. Has. A. Freaking. Accent!
The sluts started to pull down their shirt even more and lifting up their skirts, flashing their thongs. I growled softly in disgust.
"Cassandra? Would you like to tell Conner what this school for junior year learnt during your English class?" asked Mrs. Mintouski.
"It's Cassie," I corrected, "We just learnt extremely hard vocab and learnt how to write ten page essays."
"Yes, and this year, you'll be..." started Mrs. Mintouski and I tuned her out as I crumbled piece of paper landed on my desk.
I glanced at Amber as she made a reading symbol as I uncrumbled the ball of paper.
He has an ACCENT! He's GORGEOUS! Amber wrote.
And he's my mate I wrote back and threw on her desk behind the teacher's back.
Amber's and Emma's jaws dropped.
Then the second period bell rang and Mrs. Mintouski ended the class. The day went by pretty fast until it was time for dismissal.
Amber and Emma were still fussing about Conner.
"Um, Cassie right? Can I talk to you?" I heard a voice ask, that one and only voice that sent shivers down my back.
"Y-Yeah," I said, trying to act as cool a possible.
He took me somewhere private. He just stood there in front of me, not saying anything until he finally broke the ice with his sexy British accent, "Look Cassie, I-I don't know how to do this."
"Just say it," I blurted.
"I reject you," he said and when those three words hit me, my world fell on me.
"W-What do you mean?" I asked.
"I'm sorry Cassie, but I reject you, I can't be with you, I have a girlfriend. I reject you," he said.
Take You Down (Chapter 2)Conner's POV
Lies, lies, lies, lies, lies. It was all a lie. I didn't have a girlfriend back home. All I wanted to do was comfort the most beautiful girl I've ever laid eyes on and tell her that I didn't reject her and I love her and never want to let her go.
Her eyes were brimmed with tears and guilt washed through me and regret but I quickly wiped that away. "You reject me? That one person that I have been waiting for my whole freaking life rejected me?! That person that I wanted for seventeen years?! The one that I wanted them to be my first?! You were that person that I knew could comfort me when I'm upset! What is wrong me?! What I do to you?! Fine! I, Cassandra Morgans, accept your rejection. I never want to see you again!" she yelled, her tears fall as she backed away from me backwards.
She looked at me as if I was a monster. Then she spun on her heels and started to run. And I felt like my heart bursted, knowing that I made the biggest mistake of my life.
I couldn't get a mate, she would die. I didn't want to meet my mate, she was going to die. Hunters and rogues were doing whatever they could to destroy the pack and having a mate was my weakness so they would hurt her first and that would kill me.
I punched the brick wall angrily, creating a hole. I wanted to run to her and beg for forgiveness and tell her it was all a lie. I wanted to be the one kissing her tears away. I wanted to be the one making her smile. I wanted to be the one holding her in my arms and comforting her whenever something bad happened. I wanted to protect her from everything. I wanted to spoil her and make her my little girl. I wanted to kiss and hug her whenever I wanted to. I wanted to wake up with her in my arms. I wanted to cuddle with her. I wanted to get on one knee and porpose to her in the future. I wanted to be the man waiting for her when she walked down the aisle. I wanted her to hold my pups in her stomach. I wanted to be the man to be the father of her pups. I wanted her to be my wife. I wanted to watch her hold my baby in her arms. I wanted everything with her. I wanted a future with her. I wanted so many things with her but I couldn't get them.
Fuck the world. I punched the brick wall again, making a second hole. I couldn't contain my anger anymore as I shifted into my black wolf and ran into the forest in an inhuman speed as I threw my head back and let out a sad howl.
I laid my head down on my paws and took a walk around the forest until I heard one specific voice and my wolf growled, probably at me and rejecting her as I crept up closer, quietly.
"Mom? Dad? Do you hear me? I miss you," tears were rolling down her face and I wanted nothing more then to wipe the tears away, "Today was the first say of school and it was also the worst day of my life. I found my mate mommy and daddy."
She was drunk.
"I'm not so happy about it. I know you guys would've been happy and...I don't know. I want to see you guys so bad. I wish you guys were still alive. You guys won't be having any grandchildren or see me in my wedding dress. I wish you were here. Mommy, daddy? He rejected me. He rejected me."
She was sobbing so loud. I felt so much regret as I watched her. I wanted to run up to her but I held my wolf back will all the power I had.
"What did I do wrong? What is wrong with me? Why do I never fit in? Am I ugly? Am I fat? What is wrong with me? Mommy? I miss you. I wish you were alive," she sobbed.
Nothing is wrong with you, you're perfect I thought as I watched with guilt. My heart felt like it was being squeezed to death.
Then she started to giggle, "Look mommy, look daddy, I see something coming towards me, it's big and it's furry - "
And it wasn't me. A wolf was coming towards her and it was a rogue. I couldn't hold back my wolf anymore. I hurt her enough and I didn't want her pyshically hurt either.
I growled loudly and lunged at the rogue that was ready to attack my mate. It felt good to call her my mate. It felt natural.
"Don't touch her," I growled lowly.
"Oh, what's wrong? New fling?" he smirked and I recognized him immediately. Kyle. I hated him.
"She is not a fling," I snapped. I wanted to kill him on the spot.
"Oh, then who is she?" asked Kyle.
"She is an innocent girl who doesn't deserve to be killed by you," I growled.
"What's with the sudden protectiveness?" Kyle taunted, "Your mate?"
"Shut the fuck up! She's not my fucking mate!" I growled losing it as I lunged at him, clawing him as I tore his neck off.
I killed him. I heard Cassie's scream as I spun around. She was screaming...with excitement as her eyes sparkled excitedly, clapping her hands. I wanted to see her smile everyday like that. I wanted to make her smile like that. She looked beautiful.
She walked up to me, smiling as she ran her hand through my fur. "You're so adorable," she murmured, "And your eyes remind me of someone I know."
I begged that she wouldn't remember since she was drunk. She shrugged, "You're really beautiful you know."
She wrapped her arms around my neck. I purred, enjoying it, it may be the last time I was going to ever hold her and I was going to savor it when I could. I breathed in her scent. Under the smell of her beer, I could still smell the peach, vanilla and orange scent that I fell in love with. Now I sound like a school girl in love.
"What's your name?" she asked.
"Ace," I said, not wanting to use Conner but Ace was my wolf's name.
"I like you already, we can be best friends for life," she said smiling, "Can I ask you a question?"
I nodded. "Do you have a mate?" she asked.
I froze for a second before saying, "No."
"I have one. Guess what Ace? He rejected me, he threw me up like I was a piece of trash and like he didn't give a care in the world. My world fell down on me after that," then she wiped away her tears and laughed, "I wish I didn't meet him. I wish I didn't follow him so he could tell me those words. Despite that, I wish that one day, in the future, we can have a future together but all I really want to to forget about him and pretended he was never in my life. It hurts you know, it hurts to know that, that one person that is meant to be yours threw you away like you were some piece of shit."
Then she got up adruptedly, "Oh, why do I even bother telling you this, you don't even know this guy and I probably sound like
