Chapter 5: Luca.

Rune growled maliciously. "He lies!"

"Clearly," I said calmly trying to soothe her outrage. "I feel nothing for this boy at all. But wasn't this what made the match perfect? He already lied to me and now all love that could have been was tarnished. Now all he is to me is a pretty face. It would be easy to exterminate him when the time came. "Remember Rune, we need a blue blood pack member to mate with and here he is."

"This is really what you want, right?" she inquired. I can tell she was waiting for an answer that I couldn't give her.

"Yes, Rune! This is what I want."

"I'll accept you...at the blood moon ceremony," I replied to my potential mate. I bit my lip and clenched my fists. I have the opportunity of a life time. I'm not wasting it.

His eyes looked lustful and possessive. "I can wait." He leaned in closer, "I'll make you mine soon enough."

I gasped for air once I realized I hadn't taken a breath since I last spoke. He was truly very handsome.

That was when I looked up. An irate Bella stood directly in front of us. "I will rip you into pieces little girl."

I was about to respond when the handsome boy sitting next to me stood up. His presence in the room dictated respect. Everyone stood silent. Even Bella.

She scowled at me and then stared innocently at him.

Bellamy Dates of the Blue Blood Pack, I Ronan Tombs, reject you as my mate.." I watched as he looked deep into her eyes. His sudden irritation stifled the room. He glared emotionlessly at her, "Now.. and forever!"

He gave me a wink and a sexy smile. "See you tonight babe." He walked out of the room abandoning Bella who was now boiling with anger.

I felt kind of bad for her. I watched as she ran out of the room after the handsome boy named Ronan Tombs.

...

It wasn't difficult to see how kids around us reacted to our conversation. I assume it's because most of them are humans and the words mate were being discussed.

I try to lighten the conversation but the instructor called us to attention and class became filled with busy work.

But I couldn't concentrate. I can feel Rune in complete anguish now. I was repressing her pain all day but I couldn't do it anymore.

Accepting Ronan as a potential mate made Rune spiral. Her pain was my pain. It felt like my heart was breaking. I had to hold my chest. This pain hurt so bad. I could barely hold on. It almost felt like I needed to pass out. How could she feel this strongly for a mate that she only met once?

That was when a pair of strong arms pulled me from out of my seat and took me out of the room until we were alone in the hall. l felt an odd warm sensation wash over me. I felt what Rune was going mad about. Our true mate. My heart started to beat at an abnormal rate as Rune panted like a love-struck puppy. "Mate."I blurted out. Omg, what did I just say?

"Mate." I heard in response. His calm deep voice sent chills down my spine. This boy was devilishly handsome. With Rune panting in my head it was hard to refrain from licking him.

Thier he was a 6-foot 7inch Alfa! His presence made me tingle with joy and love. My eyes wanted more. I wanted to explore every inch of him that I coould. He has solid black hair and piercing black eyes. He has a manly chin and deep cheekbones that seem to exist just to make me excited. And his ample and masculine stature made me week and just a little wet in my panties. He smiled and breathed me all in. He can smell my arousal. That's when I realized it. Im in big trouble. How will I ever be able to let him go?

"Fair is fair. I got their first. She has agreed to be mine." Said and angry voice. This voice made me jump out of my mate's arms. I can tell he was furious. I guess that's how I let him go...

I looked up at my perfect mate and back to Ronan. I knew what I must do but I didnt know if my heart could take it. I silently wept for Rune as I walked towards my destiny leaving my heart behind.

I needed to get away. I put on my big girl pants and broke the silence. "Actually, I don't belong to anyone until tonight's blood moon ceremony." I try to walk off but I don't get far at all, only just down the hall before someone pulled me into a deserted classroom. "Girl this is your first day and you have more drama than the drama class."

I looked at the stranger. She was an odd girl. But her style was extraordinary. She looked exotic and gave you a pleasant feeling just being around her.

"My name is Amelie by the way!" She gave me a warm smile and I instantly felt like I could trust her even though she was definitely a wolf from my true mate's pack. I instantly ask her his name. I just have to, I almost need to know.

His name is Lucas Black but he goes by Luca.

I felt relief and I could hear Rune howling with joy. I could focus now, "What drama did I already create by the way?" I ask?

"Only the biggest! Honey, you just broke up the most famous arranged couple of Cedar High!" Ronan has been arranged to marry Bella since before they were born. Anyway, you're probably about to die!" She let about excitingly.

I can't help but to laugh. "Honestly, it serves that girl right. She and her friends almost killed me!"

She smiled, "Yeah, that whole pack has some screws loose. But what are you going to do about Bella?"

"I'm not really sure.... I replied honestly. I really didn't know. I really didn't care either way. That bitch is dead all ready. she just doesn't know it yet.
