After Breaking The Mark His Desperate Chase (Sarah) novel Chapter 7

Chapter 1 

“Mate.” 

I dropped the plate I was holding to the floor but couldn’t care to watch it shatter. My eyes were too busy soaking in the man standing before me. 

mate. 

The future Alpha of the Nightwake, Landon Walker, is my mate. 

Fuck. 

Landon’s eyes were blown wide as he stood there staring at me. The emotions rolled off him 

like waves;love, lust, confusion, fear and happiness all packed into one. He was frozen stiff mirroring my posture. Neither of us expected this outcome. It took us completely by 

surprise. Why did we just find out we were bound? We should’ve known we were mates at 

sixteen. 

It should’ve been instantaneous. 

But it didn’t happen. We didn’t know. Until now, that is. 

Both of us were passed that ripe age of sixteen –me nineteen as of today, him twenty–one– but never felt this pull until now. But why? Why now? Why not before? 

“Selene-” 

Landon began quietly. The way he said my name had chills running down my back. I opened my mouth to say something when the sound of approaching footsteps stopped me. 

It was Hestia. 

Wisps of her blonde hair swayed back and forth as she entered with a skip in her step. Her bright blue dress fell charmingly down her hips; highlighting the feminine curves she was blessed with. The air of cheeriness and glee she brought along with her presence cut the tension seeping into the kitchen just moments before. I immediately felt my throat constrict as I watched her wrap her arms around Landon’s waist and snuggled into his chest. A pang

of jealousy flared inside me but I squashed it down. 

Friends. 

I reminded myself. 

They’re just friends. 

No matter how close they were, they were simply friends. 

Landon seemed a little taken aback as he shifted on his foot and wrapped his arm 

awkwardly around her. 

His expression a mask of conflict. 

“There you guys are! I’ve been looking for you two. Can’t have the birthday girl isolating 

herself.” 

Hesita smiled brightly at me, baby blue eyes shinning and all. She looked absolutely stunning. My baby sister was glowing with happiness as she basked in his affection. In that moment, I could feel my heart rage with growing envy. It was wrong, so wrong for me to want her as far away from him as possible, but he was my mate. It was instinctual to be territorial. It was in my nature as a wolf to desire him for myself regardless of what my human side told me. Against my morals, better judgement and all sensical thinking, I 

wanted nothing more than to just stake my claim. 

I wanted to tell Hestia that he was my destined one and that I was his. 

But I couldn’t. 

I couldn’t do that to my sister. 

At least, not yet without explaining it to her. We had to have a proper conversation about 

this. 

I knew it would break her heart and that was something I wasn’t ready to do. I doubt I ever could be. In that instant of clarity, he became part of me. A part that couldn’t belong to no one else but me. Not even my sister. I knew then and there, that it was selfish thinking. 

They were only friends yet I was trying to separate them.

While I wanted to run away and hide, my wolf wanted to fight for what was hers. 

Instinct or not, it felt wrong. 

I hated the bond for it.
