One Day, I Woke Up A Werewolf
Chapter 42

Hailey's POV

We were now gathered in an open field, Azuri tied to a tree with chains of silver. She was in pain, stripped bare of any clothes. Her eyes were closed but her tears made their way out somehow, face wet from I'm sure are tears of a broken heart.

In all of my anger, I felt pity for her. She did not choose to love this mate of mine. Her heart decided for her and yes, they should not have fooled around with each other and created a bond that would eventually only affect Azuri, while Jaxon gets away unscathed by love.

I shift back to my human body, the bones snapping back always seem to shock me every damn time... The one thing I doubt I will ever get used to...

With that said, I was now one with my wolf.

Her feelings were mine and my feelings were hers... she agreed with me on feeling bad for the girl chained up in front of us.

"I am a virgin and you are not. How is it fair that I come to you in all my purity and you get to walk around with a smug smile on your face, telling the world you found a mate?" I ask.

"Oh stop with the dramatics, he was a curious boy but has seen the error of his ways. Can we move on from this already?" Jaxon's dad says to me and I smile.

"Oh, we are moving on. Your son will go home a single man. I choose to take some time away from him, however long it takes me and he will not bother me. This is the time I need to figure my life out after finding out I am a werewolf and not only that but one that will lead a pack one day. I also need to allow the idea of being forced to mate with a man that was chosen for me by some unknown and unseen force to grow on me, changing religions and a different god to pray to. I have big tasks to finish and since your son has some growing up to do, I will put some distance between us until I feel like he is good enough for me." I say.

"Hailey..." Jaxon says to me.

"I will not be the girl that just forgives a man any time he says he is sorry. Jaxon, you have seen firsthand how my life was. My father was one mean-spirited man and there is no excuse for what he put me through... because of that, I will never let a man treat me however he likes. Not from you or anyone else. I don't think I was blessed with such a task to just blindly follow when I am the one that holds all the power. I am to bring life into this world, I am the one that will carry out the prophecy, you are nothing but the seed that needs to be planted. I am the soil, the water, and the sun... 1 deserve some respect and because your little head cannot grasp the change of power, I will leave you here. Do as you wish, fuck Azuri or the list of girls at your school... or help yourself by doing some self-introspection... However you choose to spend your time will determine the outcome of our future. If you stray, just once, I promise I will not be a forgiving woman. You will find out just how quickly I can move on.” I say and I nod my head at Cayden, who removes the chains from Azuri. "Say goodbye to your ex, may this be the last time you will ever lay eyes on her or exchange words with her. Make it count but also remember that my pack is watching and listening.” I say and as I was just about to walk away...

"Why not end it now?" Somebody from the crowd shouts.

"Choose someone from our pack. At least we will know you will always be respected.” Another follows.

"I say take Cayden. He will always put you first through everything and we know because of his position in the pack, he will put his life for yours and after some time, he will lay down his own life for his children, just as he does every other day for his pack members.” My father says and the pack agrees with him.

I slowly turn to look at Cayden and he is looking back at me...
