Mated To My Childhood Bully

Hazel cried all the way till they got back home. She could not understand herself. She did not even understand where she was getting such monstrous strength from.

She hated the way her life was going on and her crying hurt Axel’s heart.

They got home and he helped her out of the car.

“Sana, go off into your room” he instructed and the little girl did as he said, rushing over to her own room.

“Axel, do you know what is wrong with me? Is that why you do not want me going out? Because I am becoming crazy and will kill others without control”

“You are not crazy” he cupped her face in his palms.

“I am crazy. If not, why… Why would I kill that man?” She asked, shedding more tears.

“Because…. because the blood of that boy runs through you!” He let out the truth, realizing that things could not be kept a secret from her anymore because the truth was starting to consume her.

“His blood? What are you saying, Axel? How?” She asked him, getting confused by his words.

“We do not have much time, Hazel.”

“I already promised my dad to come see him after postponing it for over a week now and…. I have to be there but I will be back in less than an hour”

“Pack your things up Hazel. Once I am back, you are leaving this place. I have to also prepare where you would be staying for the meantime but I will be back in an hour, alright?” He wiped her tears away with his thumb.

“Maybe this is why everyone wants to kill me… Because I am a monster!”

“You are not a monster!”

“You are just a white wolf!”

Time seemed to freeze as soon as he had said those words.

Hazel could not move, she was way too shocked by what she had just heard him say.

“That… That is not possible” she shook her head and Axel shut his eyes tightly.

“I understand that you are so confused right now and you do not understand what I am saying fully but I will explain things to you when we are on the way away from this place.”

“So get your bags packed up right away as soon as I leave.”

He leaned in and pressed his lips hard against the lips of the shocked Hazel.

“Be ready before I get back” he rushed out of the house.

He had to check out the fallen cabin that was towards the borders of the pack. It was a fallen cabin that he had kept in existence and went there only once in a while and he was sure that he was the only one who still knew about the fallen cabin.

As soon as he got into the car, his phone rang, it was his father.

He picked up the call.

“Are you on your way already?”This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

“I will be with you soon” he replied.

He was not going there just to honor his father’s invitation. He was going there so he could figure out if his father had caught a whim of the incident that happened earlier and if his father was already planning something.

He stepped hard on the accelerator, wanting to get done with everything as soon as possible.

Axel was seated on a sofa in his father’s home and across the sofa, there was Rex seated on another sofa.

Rex was clearly glaring at an obviously nervous and impatient Axel.

It was the first time the three men were gathering after the war.

“Now, would you two stop glaring at each other?” The Alpha demanded.

“Stop glaring? I am not glaring at him, father” Rex replied.

“Axel” the Alpha called.

“You know why you are here and it is because…”

“Because I almost ripped Rex apart the other day?”

“I would have been more glad if I had been able to do it because his face is really getting disgusting to my eyes.” Axel added, his eyes still glaring intensely at his brother.

“You should not talk that way, Axel. He is still your brother.”

“Well, well. The bastard you call my brother tried killing me in the middle of the war. While I stood against Damien, this bastard had no other thing to do than to send a bullet into my body”

The Alpha’s eyes widened and he started his face towards Rex.

“Is that true?” He questioned, picking his words one after the other.

Rex said nothing and lowered his head.

“I asked you a question Rex! Is that true?!” The Alpha yelled and Rex shot up from the sofa.

“Yes! It is true! I shot him and I wished for him to die!”

The Alpha got up from his own seat, anger and rage seething through his body. Axel was his beloved son, a son he could not allow to die and Rex had almost gotten rid of him.

“Were you out of your mind?! Trying to kill Axel in the middle of a fight!!”

“I was not out of my mind, father! No! My mind was perfect and I did what I wanted to do! I just want him to die! I want Axel to die and go off to hell! Maybe when he dies, someone would notice me, maybe when he dies, you will consider me your son too, maybe when he dies, people would see how good I can be too! Maybe when he dies, I will finally have a chance to become the next Alpha!!”

“You have always hated me father! You have always thought that I was not enough! No matter what I do in front of you, no matter how much I try to impress you and make you see that I can be better, you never seem to be interested in me! You always think that he is better than me! You have never been interested in my progress, father! Every single fuel that you arranged, it was not to witness my progress, it was to witness his progress! I have never been treated like your son! He is the only one being treated like your son! And I hate it! I hate it and I hate him too!! And I hate you too for making me hate him!” He screamed.

Axel got up from his own seat and turned towards his father.

“Rex claims you love me but I do not think you love me. I think that the only thing you love is my strength. If Rex was as strong as I am, if Rex was the one lucky enough to be the true Alpha, then you would have loved him more than you love me. Not for once have you considered my feelings or my emotions. You do not care how bad it hurts for me to hide Hazel from you every single day because I know you are out to kill her, to kill my happiness.”

“I can only say, that you have failed as a father. And now, I would like to take my leave” Axel pulled back and walked a few steps away.

“You have no idea what you are saying or doing, Axel! You are simply being naive and trust me, no matter how much you try hiding Hazel from me, I will still find a way to eliminate her and bring you the unquestionable power that you have been destined for! She would not be able to bring you down or take the white wolves away!”

And that was when Axel realised….

His father already knew that the prophecy was about Hazel.

Hazel was still battling with trying to understand what Axel had said to her before he left. She had dressed up and had a bag of her things ready.

Sana was already asleep in the room and she was the only one in the living room. She was still thinking deeply about the words of Axel when she heard a knock on her door.

She froze, wondering if it was someone there to get rid of her.

“Hazel!!” She recognized the voice that had called out to her, it was Clarissa.

She let out a sigh of relief and hurried towards the door. At least, Axel had told her that Clarissa was on their side and was not trying to kill her.

She opened the door and allowed Clarissa into the room.

“What’s wrong with you, Hazel? Why do you look so nervous and…” Her eyes roamed around the body of Hazel.

“Clarissa, tell me the truth. Am…. Am I a white wolf?” She asked and Clarissa bit on her lip.

“I… I really am?”

“Hazel, why don’t you follow me outside to take fresh air while we talk about this?”

“I am really a white wolf. All this while, I have been thinking that… That I am a white wolf but… But I am not?”

Clarissa held her wrist.

“I will tell you about it while we take fresh air”

Hazel held back, hesitating.

“Axel told me to wait for him here. He said he would be back soon”

“You want to know about it all, right?” She asked and Hazel nodded her head in a positive response.

“Then, follow me.”
