I Choose Scott

DIANA POV

I tried to open the door of the trailer home but it won't open. Why would Roman lock me in? I peeked out of the window, and saw my reflection. When did these windows became tinted? The music outside suddenly became louder.. so loud that it made the trailer rumble in vibration and my chest pound like a drum. These wolves really know how to party, I thought as I cover my ears with my hands.

Then, I felt the trailer home started to move slowly, driving away from the music, driving away from the camp. Holding onto the side walls, I felt the mobile home sped up a little as it fully stopped to where the music is less discernable.

"Hey!!", I pounded on the door as I shout aloud to get someone's attention. "Open the door!"I shouted but no one answered.

I sighed sharply and realized anything I do is pointless. Well, if there's danger coming.. I wouldn't be much of a help anyway. Maybe it's better for me stay here. The question is, what kind of danger is coming? And if there's danger, why haven't we left yet?

Looking at my muddy feet, I just decided to take a proper bath. I opened Roman's black drawers and took a fresh navy blue button down shirt. I can't find a well-fitting undergarment.. His bottoms, jeans and pyjamas are all too big for me. Fine, I can be naked underneath the shirt. Who can tell right? Soon I'll be home.. home with my Scott.

Then I walked into the small bathroom and started to let the water running. Removing my moonphase watch, I looked high and low where to put it so it won't get wet. I groaned and went back out again as I land one kiss on it before resting it on top of the drawers.

With the warm water running on my hair down to my feet, and the hot steam coming out, I suddenly thought of my mother. In times like this, I've always wondered what would an Alva Woodsworth do? I can never deny myself of my own version of happy ever since I met Scott. None of my decisions were regrettable. Though when there are times I thought I am not strong enough and very capable of doing some things, she flashes in my mind especially if I'm left in making tough decisions. What would my mother do?

I turned the shower off, dried myself and put some clothing on. Drying my hair with a gray striped towel, I went out of the bath feeling clean and refreshed. I looked for my waych straightaway but.. IT'S NOT WHERE I LEFT THEM.

I looked everywhere and didn't see it. Where could it be? Moving around, I heard people talking outside. I moved closer to the windows to hear them clearly. Realizing it's Roman and Oli talking, I kept mum and listened intently.

"How many times do I have to make myself clear, you have to give her up, Roman. Forget that Luna! She's owned by another Alpha", a voice of a woman who seemed to be Oli.

"You don't know what you're talking about, Oli.. I don't want to reject my mate or cut the imprint. I do not want to be banished by the moon goddess for disobeying the imprint", a man replied with a voice like Roman. "and become a werewolf like my father", he added. Remarkably, he did imprint on me.

"Son, we can always find other options.. Dolphus saw your fate, your life is in danger with her", so Roman is Oli's son and Dolphus saw visions of a dark future of Roman with me. "Give her to Scott now, he have arrived", I gasped hearing Scott is here. He's the danger Roman's referring to.

It took time for Roman to reply. I held my breath as I listened. Then he said, "She's the most beautiful thing that ever happened to me. I can't just let her go".

From there, I stopped listening. I swallowed a lump in my throat and sighed shakily. My life took a turn after hearing Dolphus' prophecy about my fate. And for him to see danger in Roman's life with me, the greater my will for me to stay out of his life.

I feel sad for Roman, knowing that the imprint is the most-awaited and significant milestone for a wolf. And to imprint on me, is neither his blessing nor a gift, especially if I'll give him anything not even close to love.

I sat on the bed and dangled my cold feet on the floor. A few moments later, Roman came in the trailer home looking bluer than blue.

"Is it safe now?", I asked as he walk in, pretending I didn't hear anything.

He lifted his face up and gave me a warm smile before he locked the door. "We're leaving the campsite tonight", he replied walking closer to me.

The trailer home engine started, and moved right away. "Right now?", I asked in surprise.

"Yes.. LUNA", he replied emphasizing the word Luna.

"Where are we going?", I asked.

"To the Valley of the Falls.. did you noticed the dead trees that we passed by going here? That's where", he answered. It's the same place where I have feeling of déja vu, and the same road where I saw the familiar man.

"Oh.. okay", I couldn't hide my smile and excitement to go there. It has to be a place who have answers to at least one of my questions. Also, I need to ask a few questions to Kristia too. Despite I long for Scott, I still have unfinished businesses to take care of. "Is Kristia coming?., I asked.

"Yes", he briefly replied. He stayed standing tall a few steps away from me.

I stood up holding onto the wall and carefully studied his face. "Is everything alright?", I asked even though I know the answer.

"They say.. the first step is the most important part to start a good journey.." Roman took one step closer.

"You know I won't take that step.." I replied.

"I don't mind taking a few more", Roman a couple of steps closer inching to my face. "Diana, why? Why can't you see me the way you look at Scott? Don't you feel anything for me? Even a tiny bit?", he asked.

Words died in ny mouth. I couldn't say a thing. I can't be a hypocrite and ask him to look for another Luna. What do I do to cut the imprint without risks? I feel bad for making things complicated for him.

"I am the better Alpha for you, Diana. Choose me, love me.. Find your way to me", Roman said as it breaks my heart.

"Roman, it's not about who's the better Alpha. Love isn't something you get at the snap of your fingers or at a clap of your hands. I chose the man who saw and accepted the real me.. I chose the man who's the root of my joys.. I choose Scott.", I replied.

"Even if.. he turned to a lycan and tried to kill you?", I stared at him as I gaped. How did he know?
