Chapter 12
But I don’t think that I will just go into a relationship with someone whom I don’t even know, that’s how I know these fate relationships either aren’t going to last or not going to work at all. I’d rather have a woman that I don’t need to have special attachments with.
“You aren’t going to say it? I believe that you are going to meet the one tonight! The one you will be spending the rest of your life with, I don’t think that you’ll stay thinking like that forever, the woman for you is just waiting, waiting for you to stumble upon her.” She looked amused, but I was irritated. But I also couldn’t talk back to her since she’s my mother, but I still needed to tell her what I think about fate.
“Sorry mom, I don’t believe in fate, nor will I ever believe in it, I just think that it isn’t real, it’s just a simple fairytale that ends horribly in the end, fate isn’t real, the woman I will marry won’t be in this Annual pack gathering because she doesn’t exist, I don’t believe she exists because I don’t want her to exist.”
I basically told my mom what I said to Greco, but I still had to choose my words since I didn’t want to upset her.
But even after what I told her, she still felt confident that I will find my one true love here. “You mustn’t reject your fated loved one, or bad things could happen to you, and to the pack, it isn’t good Grant. Do not reject it, you have to embrace it.” She suddenly became serious all of a sudden. I don’t know if she was serious or not, but before I could talk, she was called by one of the Omegas.
Krisna’s POV
The Annual pack gathering is finally here, just one more day, and hopefully, I will be home free., we are on our way to the venue, the luggage inside the car I am riding in is making it literally impossible to move, I was squished to the window, I was just thankful and that it wasn’t sunny, or else I would’ve been friend to a toast, I wouldn’t have even made the trip at all. But I did like the scenery, I didn’t have much choice but to just look at the window for the whole trip, but for Asthrid, she was living her best life in the other car, with literally nothing else inside but just her.
I thought that this would be a nightmare, me and her, in the same car, in the same event, but I think that it is going just nicely, but we haven’t talked to each since we left the mansion earlier. I wonder how she’ll make me want to get out of her face as soon as possible later when we arrive.
Will everyone attend the Annual Pack Gathering? I’m curious about who will be there, but none of that will matter when I finally go. When I finally get out of the pack, I can’t wait to just run away from all of this and start a new life.
I dozed off in the car, even with all of the luggages crushing me, I was still comfortable enough to sleep, or maybe I was just tired, no matter what. I’m just glad I didn’t have to sit through the whole rest of the trip.
I think it was a couple of hours later after I dozed off when the driver of the car woke me up. I didn’t see where we went, when I woke up, we were just there, with Asthrid already out of the car, looking furious. I don’t know what she was angry at again, but I hope it isn’t me since I just woke up. I then got out of the car as soon as I realized where we were, I knew that I would just get scolded again if I didn’t move fast enough.
But Asthrid and I weren’t the only ones to arrive, the rest of the Alpha family arrived as well, just as almost after we arrived at the Annual Pack Gathering. They all looked so sophisticated, and scary. They looked charming and intimidating at the same time, I don’t know how I will approach them later if they were to call me, I just hope that I will only have to deal with Asthrid tonight, she is already a handful, I have been working for them for as long as I can remember, but why am I still scared of them? I don’t know how I would be able to communicate with them later…
Then suddenly, while I was still inside of the car, I knew that the windows were tinted, so no one should be able to see me inside, but Asthrid… She was staring at me right in my eyes, as if she could see me as clear as day. I don’t know if she could really see me or not, but I still got out of the car just to be sure that she wouldn’t get too angry, since it is a special event for them.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“Krisna! What are you waiting for?” Asthrid yelled at me like no one was even there, she just likes to make my life hard, and I’m okay with it, as long as I don’t end up in prison or worse, I can get out of here when I see an opportunity later.
I was dozing off since I kinda just woke up, I didn’t know what I was going to do, as if I just forgot everything for a moment. “Yes?!” My instincts just kicked in and saved me, I don’t think that I would’ve been pardoned, especially with all of the Alpha family present, I just need to follow Asthrid’s orders for the rest of the night, and I’ll be home free before I know it.
“What are you doing? She kept yelling at me.
But what I didn’t notice because I was too caught up on Asthrid, was all the other girls looking at me, I could feel them judging me from their minds, they were looking at me from toe to head, I could almost hear what they were all saying, then I went to the mirror of the car and took a good look at myself. What I saw was a mess, my hair was all tangle and messed up, I’m very sure I have a drool mark on my cheek, and my clothes have creases all over, I felt embarrassed, I felt ashamed about myself. Every single guest in the Annual pack gathering were all wearing makeup, wonderful dresses, and perfume. All I had was just my dress from earlier.
