Chapter Three
Twisted Mate
âWhatâ Aly said startled by his words âWhy are you doing this I have not done anything wrong I have been nice to everyone in this pack.â
âYes, Aly you are a nice girl the problem is the moon goddess chose you as my mate and I canât have a low omega as my luna. This is the only way I can get rid of you without feeling much pain.â
Aly couldnât stand the pain anymore falling to the ground. The pain of breaking the pack bond hurt a lot but when he told her she was his mate it broke her more, he didnât want her.
What she didnât expect was that while she was on her knees, he took a knife out of his pocket and in one swift move he sliced her throat, without her wolf to heal her she choked on her blood in front of him.
Seeing her dying there he felt pain in his chest he just killed his mate, he fell on his knees as well the pain consumed him making him fall into darkness when he woke up, he was laying on the ground next to Alys lifeless body.
He didnât overthink things. What was done was for the better good, he thought. He started to dig a hole with his claws close to the base of the twisted tree; no one would find her body there; his pack mates were scared to go near that tree; they said it was cursed.
Ericâs wolf was mourning his mate, but Eric didnât pay attention to him. He would get over it, now he had to make a rumor of Aly that she ran away with a guy she met at school that was older than her that way no one would look for her.
With that idea settled he went back to the pack house where he would start with his next plan in motion to make Courtney fall in love with him again.
His wolf would fight with him, but the mutt would have to do what he wanted. He was stronger than him and he should be grateful he was getting both of them a strong beautiful mate.
His wolf Simon didnât speak to him for a week, he was mourning his mate and didnât want to deal with his stupid human, he knew what this manâs plan was, but he would do his best to make him miserable for the rest of his life he killed his mate the one made for him, and he will pay.
Eric waited for a couple of weeks before he went looking for the next-door alpha's daughter. He didnât want to seem desperate. He also wanted to give her some time to grieve her mate; he didnât want her to feel pressured by him.
He called alpha Ulises Courtneys father to inform him he would go to his pack to visit. Alpha Ulises was surprised to hear Eric was going to visit his pack but happy because he would try to form a truce with him.
Alpha Ulisses informed his pack members that they would have a visitor and they should prepare a feast as a welcome to Alpha Eric. He went to his daughterâs chamber to let her know they would have visitors; she hasnât left her side of the wing since her mateâs death.
He knocked on her bedroom door. Courtney opened the door to see who it was. She had lost weight, there were dark circles under her eyes, her pale skin looked paler as if she was sick, and her hair looked lifeless.
âHi father, what can I help you with?â she said in a low voice, her father has been very supportive of her and has tried to help her the best he can, but she and her wolf are to hurt to continue with life she wants to join her mate.
âWe are having a visitor tonight, maybe he could help you feel better. I know you had a relationship with him before you found Marcusâ her father says with hope in his eyes he wants to see his daughter happy again.
âI know you feel itâs too soon, but you need to be strong, life continues, Marcus wouldnât want to see you wither in pain, you will be with him again but itâs not your time yet.â
âI know father I will be down there when he arrives, and I hope you are rightâ with that her father leaves her wing with hopes of seeing his daughter smile once again.
