I want to be wrong

"Okay… okay" He pointed at the girl who was stooping on the ground. "Why don't you ask her what she's doing in a cemetery with a shovel by this time of the night." He stooped low and grabbed Naomi's shoulder, their eyes locking as he shook her vigorously. "Tell me…does this sudden news make you want to bury yourself that quick. Then I'll help you!"

Naomi began to cry again, feeling so helpless and weak.

Barton grabbed him off the ground but Daniel pushed him on getting up. He almost fell back and glared at Daniel. As the two advanced towards each other, Brittany stepped in between them.

"That's enough you two!!! Let's just get to the bottom of this" She turned to Naomi and fell speechless when she saw Naomi digging up a grave ?!

"What do you think you're doing!!!" She gasped In fear, pulling Naomi away. Was she really going to bury herself?!

"I just want them to be wrong. I want to be wrong too." She just said and finally explained on seeing the horrified looks on their faces. "I was told by the former Alpha that my birth parents who were werewolves was buried right here."

The three watched her dig and exchanged glances, finally figuring out what she was up to.

But what if she was wrong? What if the former Alpha had lied to her? What if they didn't find anything? Did it mean…

They suddenly grabbed shovels in a shed in the cemetery and began digging one after the other.

With each soil that was scooped up and thrown backwards, Naomi's heartbeat pulsated very quickly.

As they dug deeper and deeper, she began to loose hope and by the time they had collapsed backwards after digging for an hour and had found nothing, she fell back on realizing the truth.

"Naomi," Brittany gasped as her shovel fell to the ground along with her knees. She didn't know when she pulled her into a tight hug. Naomi only cried in her embrace.

Her life…everything has been built on a lie. She had lived with a fantasy that she'd actually shift. She believed she was an Omega. She believed she'd find her mate and her life would end happily ever after. But she wasn't even a werewolf. She had been showed an empty grave with nothing inside. She didn't even know her parents.

Daniel just stood there and watched as Barton knelt before Naomi, placing a hand on her shoulder, sighing helplessly with a shaky breath. Suddenly he threw his shovel to the ground and the three looked up at him.

"No! It can't be! There must be a mix up somewhere." He pushed Barton aside and held Naomi. Their eyes locked again and she couldn't lower her face. Her heart began thumping with something she couldn't fathom as she stared into those bright metallic blue eyes that had pools of blue shades of different colors swelling in them.

"Maybe we dug up the wrong grave…maybe we're in the wrong cemetery..."

"Daniel," Briattuny sternly said, standing up along with Barton, their figure towering over him. "It's obvious. The truth is literally open before us."

"No!!!" Danile stood up grabbing his head in frustration.

"Daniel don't you dare." Kelvin said from within. He could feel what was coming.

Naomi just sat there on the ground, confused. Why was he acting like he was the one who found out he was something he never expected to even be.

Daniel finally brought down his hand and slowly looked back at Naomi whose eyes were spamming in his.

The twins stepped back, wanting to see what was up with their cousin as he stooped low, offering his hand to Naomi.

Out of fear and confusion, she grabbed his hand and let him pull her up.

Her breath hitched up her throat when she realized they were so close, she could see his pupils, could sense his heart pounding hard against his rib cage. Could see the so many emotions swirling in his eyes. His arm holding hers, her arm on his chest as she tried to steady her wobbling legs.

"Full name." He suddenly demanded.

"What?" She was confused.

"Full… name!" He snapped at her and with quivering lips she gave away her surname which no one knew aside the Alpha who had claimed the name was hers.

"Na...om..omi Camp…bell. Campbell." She stuttered, shaking her head like she couldn't understand why he needed her name.

"I…Daniel Pierce," Daniel began, almost breaking down at what he was about to say all the while ignoring Kelvin. "Soon-to-be Alpha of Dark Risers's pack hereby reject you Naomi Campbell as my mate."

For a second, some seconds, the atmosphere tensed. The whole place was so quiet you could almost hear Naomi's tear drop fall to the ground, making a splash.

As Daniel turned to walk away, she didn't know when her legs have way and she felll into the grave that she dug up. Her vision blurred as she slowly drifted into darkness as she heard some screams coming from Brittany.

Barton ran after Daniel but just as he got passed the cemetery gates, he looked to and fro but didn't see him. It was almost like he vanished.

**

"Hey." A bright voice perked up from behind him but Daniel kept climbing up, upstairs to his floor, his knuckles almost turning transparent from gripping the railings so tight.

He lost count of how many times he blinked back the tears that welled up in his eyes. How many times he leaned against the wall to steady his heavy heart. He never realized how painful it was to reject a mate. But why did it hurt so much? It wasn't like he was attached to her already.

"You're just the person I'm looking for" Dora suddenly ran past him and turned to barr his way with a large smile on her face. There was a bright light glowing in her eyes which was not hard to miss. She seemed really happy about something. But what did it matter to him.

"I'm not in the mood Dora." Daniel said, hopping she'd hang onto his every word and step out of the way so he could walk past her but she just folded her arms, her smile wavering.

"It's important."

"It's not like you're leaving for home tonight. We have all day tomorrow..."

Dora was trembling from excitement.

"For Moon goddess sake just listen to me Daniel!!! The Shaman called me in while you were all having dinner and he gave me a prophecy!!!"

Her voice rumbled through the halls in excitement. She grabbed onto his arm and was shaking him.

Daniel sighed. Either he went along with her and left for his room sooner or he wouldn't even go into his room at all.

"Okay Dora," He sighed, his eyes almost dropping to the ground. "What did the Shaman call you about." He was too depressed to have even remembered that Dora was absent during the entire dinner.

Dora almost exploded as she blurted out, almost like rapped it out but Danile kind of grapsed every word she said and with time his eyes grew wider and his eyebrows rose like they were going to rise above his head and fall to the ground.

"Wh..what did you just say?"

"He prophecied about us Daniel. He said we were fated mates and that I was a special creature. He told me all about the Kitsunes and…"
