The Alpha Didn’t Want Me Chapter 17
Ashley’s POV
That went well. After I told him I could reject him even after mating I thought he’d go all ballistic on me. But instead he went ballistic in the forest. I know I shouldn’t have broken his hope like that but he deserved honesty. And I didn’t want any secrets between us if we are to start something. Nothing good comes out of lies.
There is a knock which knocks me out of my cuddling and playing session with Bruno. But Bruno starts growling. Loudly. Okay he never acts that way. This is weird.
I open the door to reveal an old man. A werewolf to be precise. Which means he is older then he looks. But
that is not what alerts me. It’s the aura that he gives. Bruno growls loudly once and then starts barking this
time. Bruno never barks.
“May I help you?” I try to act denial.
“Yes… uh…. are you… Ashley? The Angel’s daughter ?” He asks kindly.
My eyes widen and I guess he got his answer since his facial expression took a 180 and he started moving
forward. He gives me creeps. I move back but only for him to stop at my doorstep literally. It’s like there’s a
wall. He can’t walk through the door. He bangs his hands on it. You can’t hear anything but he still can’t walk
through.
He was so calm a second ago and now he seems so desperate to get through. Bruno doesn’t stop barking. I
am so confused. What is going on? Then he utters a string of curses and looks at me apologetically. He
pulls out, what looks like to me is a can… and throws it in the room. Within seconds I feel something binding
me like ropes. And a tearing pain in my stomach. I feel like something is sucking out everything in me. All my
power draining. But I fight it. I apply all of the strength that’s left in me and break those bonds jumping out
the window with Bruno in my arms. I feels the wind passing by me as I fly down, my wings taking their own
time in opening. Once they do….. I immediately feel lighter. Like I am free.
But it is short lived since I feel ropes against my abdomen. Real ropes. Bruno is knocked out of my arms due to sudden force as I watch him falling down from halfway from 12 floor. There is no way he is gonna survive
this. Tears blur my vision as I feel myself being lifted up but I am helpless as I see Bruno falling down until I
can no longer see him.
That dog has been with me through thick and thin. And today he died due to someone trying to kill me. It’s all my fault. Bruno left. Cole left too. I am not surprised. I mean I can’t give him stability of course he left me. He could do so much better but he stuck around for me and yet I disappointed him.
He is better off without me.
