Mistake With The Alpha Chapter 42

Samantha's POV

　　I didn't know why Sally decided not to say the truth and take the whole blame when Jaylen asked. I had my own reason for not defending myself. I don't want people to say things they don't know about me. So I had my own reason justified. She should have told Jaylen the truth that she's not the one who ordered me to be whipped. Jaylen is a good man and I don't think he deserves what the moon goddess gave him as a mate. Despite all odds, she didn't need to do what she did. She's his mate after all. I think a Luna should be considerate and not mean. Even if she's not happy with my past relationship with her mate, she should only face me and not add poor old Sally to it. She did her no wrong.

　　I know with Jaylen's look, he was totally disappointed at me with what I was being accused of. I wasn't sad about it because it will help him get over me. I don't want him to hate me but if he hates me it will help the situation at hand, I don't mind. He needs to forget about me since he has a mate and a pack to focus on.

　　All this braving up doesn't mean I wasn't sad. I was so sad, in fact I couldn't help but to cry. My pain was so much but I have to endure it for Jaylen's sake. I then after the whole thing decided to have a run so as to forget the whole thing for the meantime. I want to be ready for tomorrow's sorry and mockery. Tomorrow will be a new day to make fun of poor Sam and make her their entertainment but I promised myself that I won't let anyone bring me down. I'll face this till it passes.

　　"Sam, you'll face the mystery of your life" I said to myself.

　　" Yes Sam. We are in this together" Crystal said to me.

　　I removed my clothes and hid it behind a tree and then shifted. I looked around and started to run. I was running with my eyes closed and then used my wolf sense to avoid obstacles. Being with the Alpha helped my wolf a lot. I could feel that I've become stronger than before. I'm becoming smarter. I had gained a lot with me being with Jaylen even though it didn't last. I was doing my thing, feeling the night's breeze on my fur and it felt so good. I was forgetting my troubles when I felt another wolf fall beside me. I don't need to look at it to know which wolf it is. I've spent enough time with the same wolf to know the wolf by smell. I halted suddenly and looked at the big tiger colored wolf.

　　The wolf looked at me and I looked at it. Hort was always looking so big and good.

　　"Let's talk," he said.

　　I didn't want to talk to him. I love this wolf so much that I can't resist touching him. He's so close and so far away at the same time.

　　"There's nothing to talk about Hort. Go back to your mate" I said in Crystal's intentionally harsh voice.

　　Not that I didn't miss this big bad wolf. Not that I wasn't happy to see him. But giving in to his request wouldn't solve my present problem. It will even make it more difficult, especially for me. It won't be so hard on him since he has the mating bond to regulate him but I have none. I'll just be there wallowing in pain.

　　"Don't be harsh," he said to me.

　　"Go away Hort" Crystal said with a groan.

　　Her rebuffing made Hort use his Alpha voice on her.

　　"You would listen to me," he said authoritatively.

　　Crystal bared her neck in surrender at his command. Even though she was angry that he did it.

　　"Shift" he ordered.

　　"Alpha" I called helplessly

　　He glared at me and I had no choice but to shift. I wished I wasn't far away from my clothes. I wasn't feeling so free standing in front of him naked. Earlier I would have flaunted my body in front of him and be happy but me thinking that he has another woman who would flaunt her body to him and the woman having such a perfect body made me so restless. I'm no match for his mate. Jaylen shifted too. We were both naked.

　　"Why are you suddenly shy?" He asked.

　　I could sense sadness in his voice.

　　"I'm not shy. I just don't want someone seeing us naked and then reporting it to your mate. I might be mateless but I don't want to be tagged a wh*re" I said covering my private place with my hands even though they were not covered at all.

　　I know Jaylen didn't like what I said but it's the truth. His mate is mean and I don't want her trouble. Jaylen didn't say anything, he just moved closer to me. I moved back.

　　"You can't do this Jay, you have a mate" I said to him with a scolding voice.

　　I know he is my Alpha but I'm a woman too. I know how I would feel if my man cheats on me with another woman. It'll hurt me deeply. Even with me not being the owner of the man, I know how much I'm hurting, talk more of the owner of the man. Not even when she'll feel the pain of what we will do. She already hates me, I don't want her to hate me more and see me as an enemy. Looking at Jaylen, it was so obvious that he wanted me.

　　"I know Sam but I can't help it" he said in a gruff voice.

　　His eyes, voice and body shows that he's filled with lust. I myself wasn't left out. My body was already shaking with want. I want to end this before Jaylen could smell my arousal. Once he does, I won't be able to stop him. I looked at the river and I know it'll be my savior for tonight. I then ran to it to cover my naked boat in the water.

　　At first I thought Jaylen would follow me but he didn't. He stood where he was and was looking at me. I was sad again that he didn't follow me. I don't even know what is wrong with my feelings. It's really against me. Him staying away from me is what I want and now, I'm still sad about it. When I had thought Jaylen was gone, I heard someone swim close to me. He held my waist and pulled me to himself. What I didn't want to happen. I looked at the man I love so much that belongs to another. My bad fate.

　　"I'm sorry" he said, burying his face on my neck.

　　" No need to apologize Jay, none's your fault" I smiled at him.

　　I was trying to move away from his arms but he won't let me. He held me so tight.

　　"I should have known that all Allison was saying was a lie. You can't do such a thing of such" he said with a sad face.

　　I got confused. I don't know how he got to know. While I was there, Sally didn't tell him a thing.

　　"What do you mean?"

　　The last time I checked, he believed what his mate said. I saw it in his face and I'm not blaming him for it. She's his mate and according to the mating bond, she owns his heart and everything. I do envy the woman. And her story was quite believable.

　　"Sally told me everything," he said to me.

　　" Oh" I said, not knowing what to say.

　　"I......."

　　Jaylen's intended words were interrupted by my scream.
