Four years later
"She can't come home Lyndon, not now" I heard my mom reminded my dad through the phone.
"She needs to finish her training" it was like she is the one talking to me over the phone but not my dad.
"Dad, please tell mom I need to be there for my brother's birth"
"I heard that and no you can't" she calls over.
"You heard that honey, you can't come home but will send you photos" he chime and I just gave up on
that and told them I love you before ending the call.
Indeed, I am not necessarily giving up as I am packing my clothes in my suitcase. Ughh how can they
not want me to be there like seriously I want to be there for my brother's birth. So I am going there as a
surprise whether they like it or not.
Who knows Matteo is going to be surprise too, and I just hope he have kept his promises. After all it
has been four years of going to uni here now I finally want to go back home.
I am back in the dorms after staying with Elle and Eric for one year in their home I then request to move
into the dorms.
Despite them wanting me to stay there but I still want to experience moving in with a roommate which
was unfortunate.
My one and only roommate was send back home after getting herself pregnant with her mate since
then I live on my own.
My parents and I talk a lot through the phone over the years. They wanted me to come over and visit
but I refused as I still wasn't over my heartbreak.
Now that I'm finally over everything and I want to go home to see them but they wouldn't let me.
Especially now my mom's pregnancy is due this month and whenever I ask of Matteo my dad would
say to forget him, and that was it nothing else.2
Over the four years I hardly contact Cora or Gia, the last time I met Cora was when her brother came
here in track of his Mate who got kidnapped by her crazy ex fiancée, then that was a year ago.
I heard from several people who went to her pack that she got grounded as her infidelity with Jem has
been finally caught.
As for Gia the last time we talk was a year back. She has move in with Ed and they have gone around
other pack's for vacation.
I have made new friends over the years and Kevin was quite annoyed that I almost over the past three
years of my life want to give up and go home.
The guy has been a nightmare he may have not physically harass but he did sexually harass me
verbally. Thanks to my dad for teaching me self defense that I could defend myself everytime he tries to
touch me.
The last time we enter into a combat was on the night of our dorm party. He pretend to get drunk and
tries to seduce me and when he couldn't he tries to get physical which I put up pretty much a good
fight.
Beta Lucian found us fighting and Kevin was expelled from the uni with Elle standing her ground that
he would not step any foot in their pack. Thanks for that he was send back home and I could finally live
my last year in uni happily without any more trouble.
"Addasah" someone knocked on my room's door "who is it?"
"It's Kaiser" I threw my last cloth in my suitcase.
Kaiser is one of a friend I met here in uni along with Sana and Ollie. They became my friends but Sana
and Ollie have left to go home a month ago.
Kaiser and I have 2 months of training left before we go home. Kaiser was quite different from Ollie
whom only made it clear to be just friends but Kaiser, he was the first guy who approached me to be his
girlfriend apart from Kevin's sick proposal.
In fact, I turn him down as I wasn't interested at all I was so invested in school projects and work.
Dating never appeared in my calendar schedule or my diary.
He then wants to be my friend and here we are friends. Just friends with no benefit as the others call it
or anything that would hinder our friendship.
I straighten my sweater and went out to meet him outside as I am not letting him in my room.
That's another thing, a rule I made up a few months after settling here: no guy would enter my room
and that goes for my guy friends.
"Shall we" he smile and I nod my head following behind him. There is going to be a festival tonight but I
wasn't going to attend it as I will be going back home after the surprise Kaiser wanted to show me.
He took me to a pond at the back of our campus and I could see he was nervous. Alera was a little bit
disappointed as she was ready to go home but Kaiser is making us late.
He stops then turn to me "Adda can you close your eyes please" wanting this to be over with I close my
eyes waiting for whatever surprise awaiting me.
"Open your eyes" I quickly comply with it, and found the scene before me beautiful.
Any girl would cry at the moment but I wasn't as I am not in the mood for the treat.
"Addasah, would you do the honour and be my girlfriend?" I let out a heavy sigh.
I would have said yes if there was a tiny bit of my heart beating for him but right now I do not want to
force myself into anything.
As much as I am feeling guilty and sad for him but I cannot drag myself into something I never want it. I
don't even want to lead him on besides he has a Mate out there.
What happened to me, I did not want to let that happen to anyone else.
A girl who came late and find her mate in the arms of another. No I won't let that happen.
Yeah Elle told me her story with her mate in the past apart from their newly incarnated life but I never
told her mine even though it was kind of similar.
So up until now nobody here on the campus or Daluna Pack knows my mate because I hid the truth
well.
I was never an open book who yells to the world:
Matteo is my fucking mate and he broke me. So please I need somebody to take this pain away.
No I wasn't like that, I believe in healing my own self and plus my two best friends and parents at home
were enough to be my rock and comfort.4
Looking back at Kaiser with flowers in his hand in front of me I sadly smile at him.
"I'm sorry Kaiser but I can never see you in such ways," thinking of telling him the truth but not the
whole story I held onto Matteo's ring on my necklace.
"I am going back today and the one who made promises, who the moon goddess pair up for me will be
there at home waiting for me."
He look at me with shock "I'm sorry Kaiser, but you know I can never see my friends as a man for me,
so please don't complicated things and start looking for your own mate"
I turn around and started walking back the house but his words made me stops.
"What if she's in love with another? What if she doesn't want me? And what if your mate is with
another?"4
I turn back smiling at him "that's the thing Kaiser, it's an 'what if?'
'What if doesn't guarantee your mate isn't waiting for you' because what if she is?"
It's like I have caught him off guard and I knew I was right.
"Stop second guessing with an what if? and Go with where to?"
I turn back and walk back to the campus to collect my suitcase. I went to Elle and Eric's home only to
find out they have gone out shopping.
"Don't you want to go together with them? I heard it's an invitation from your pack. All pack's high ranks
are attending it tonight"
I wonder what's the occasion was and its not a bad a idea to go with Elle and Eric but then I am not
supposed to be home now so no I will go on my own.
"No thanks, Margaret perhaps give them this" I handed her a thank you letter with a card in an
envelope then I made my way out of the house.
Clutching on my suitcase handle I smile while waiting for the uber.
Holding onto my necklace I happily told Alera+
"I can't wait to get home."
