Ashley's POV
It seemed that Meg was betrayed by me. Hah. I did it so I could PROTECT her from the horrible abusers Lucy and Valeria. But no, she seemed to be betrayed and hurt I couldn't tell her. I walked in an elegant way with confidence oozing out of my pores. As I exited the school grounds I was caught by the elbow. I tensed prepared to fight when I felt the sparks. I knew it was Damian so I released my tensed muscles and turned to face him. I was surprised when he pulled me into his embrace. I was even more shocked by his words.

"Ashley, you can cry. You don't have to hold it in. No one is here." He whispered softly.

I felt as though the walls I put up crashed and caved. The walls I spent years putting up, just crumbled and crashed with those simple words from my mate. Damian. Although I was crying he knew I was thankful for him saying those words, being there for me and knew I would eventually just crumble under the pressure from these years. Instead of saying thank you out loud I tightened my hold in our embrace signalling my gratitude towards him, he seemed to get it and said nothing of it.

"I need to think of something else to call you. Everyone says Ashley, Ash or Ley. I want it to be special to us." He whispered thoughtfully.

I nodded my head in agreement. I knew the perfect name but didn't know if he would get angry at me and yell at me.

"I have one." I whispered.

He peeked up at my voice and signalled for me to continue. I took a breath and spoke.

"You could call me by real first name." I spoke.

He look taken aback by this and made me look him in his stormy emerald green eyes. I sighed in my head of his eye colour, jealous that I couldn't have that colour.

"What?" He softly asked.

"My name is Ashley Hawthorne. Just call me your nicknames." I snickered.

He looked at me then his face broke out into a smile. He laughed at me all of a sudden that I couldn't help but stare at him as his whole body shook with his booming laughter. His jet black hair swishing in air with his emerald green eyes alight with amusement and humour. I found myself laughing with him.

Damian's POV (Surprise)
Her violet eyes sparkled with joy as her waist length honey brown hair swirled and swished in the wind. I'm not a lovey-dovey kind of guy, but with my mate I could learn. I was angry with Meg, she said she wanted to be called that by everyone, for making my mate cry and if she wasn't feeling guilty about it I would've done something I would've regretted if Ashley found out.

"I'll call my goddess, because in my eyes your a fiery temperamental goddess but your also mine and only mine." I whispered huskily in her ear.

I felt her shiver involuntary, but it boosted my pride and ego for making her feel that way.

Ashley's POV
Damn him. Damn him to hell for making me feel this way. But I could get use to this. He opened his arms again and I literally jumped into his outstretched arms and snuggled closer to him with my face in the crook of his neck, breathing in his mouthwatering scent. He walked back into the school with me in his arms, I was a tad bit embarrassed for him carrying me. I tugged at his sleeve and he looked down at me confused. I nodded to the ground and he got the hint, he carefully let me out his arms. I climbed out of his arms and gracefully walked with my head held high, back straight and oozing confidence that only a child with an Alpha bloodline. We were walking until I was tackled by my friends Meg and Rose. I growled in playful annoyance and sent a playful glare to boys that were laughing.

"I'm sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry, bff!" Wailed Meg.

I gave Meg a slap on the back on head softly to know I forgive her. She smiled in a carefree way when the I heard a voice I really hated.

"Meg get away from that slut." Commanded the one and only, ex-mate Jack Thomas, give him a round of applause for swearing, insulting and just pissing me off.

I chuckled darkly and gave him my frostiness and annoyed glare. It didn't send him fainting, to my great displeasure, just only a slight flinch but you could smell the fear coming off of him in waves. Josh glared at the punk and was about to tackle him to the ground, when my hand suddenly went up stopping him. He looked confused at first then realisation hit him on the head. He took a step back and then proceeded to let me deal with him. I didn't need to prove myself to anyone but I thought it would be a good idea if the Beat and Third-In-Command could see what I could do. I only used violence if it would be needed but mostly I would use my words.

"Do you have a problem ex-first-mate of Meg?" I hissed at him.

I thought he wouldn't be stupid enough to answer and just walk away like a coward, instead, to my surprise, he glared glared at me. This boy must have a death wish. My glare only intensified not wavering once, I saw his glare waver for a minute.

"I didn't accept the supposed rejection, got it bitch?" He snarled.

I laughed. Then I gave him my dangerous, frostiest and even more annoyed glare making him visibly flinch.

"Listen here pup, you do not and I mean not speak lowly to your high ranking wolves, understand? Meg accepted her second-chance-mate and rejected you in front of the entire werewolf community, just this morning. Listen here mutt you come anywhere near her and you will have to deal with a very very pissed off Luna, OK?" I summed it up with a sickly sweet innocent smile that made him pale instantly making him look like a ghost.

I laughed evilly internally. I shooed him off with a look and he left with his tail between his legs.

'Our human rocks!' Screamed Lyra.

'She's a kickass Luna and mate.' Commented Shay.

'Don't forget that she is awesome.' Said Shanna.

'Honestly no one could forget.' Commented Carol.

'She has this deadly aura aura of confidence and raw power that make others cower in fear.' Said Skye.

'No wonder mate likes us. He loves the power coming off of us.' Commented Shar fleetingly.

'Well I am pretty scary when I want to be and very dominate, only Damian makes me a tad bit submissive.' I said thoughtfully.

They seemed to be in agreement with me on this one.
