Story: 101 Proposals? No, Alpha
I shook my head a little. “The snow was too heavy, and it wasn’t easy to go back.”
That was the truth and a reason to do something. The truth is that I didn’t want to go back. I really wanted to leave him for good.
He didn’t appear to notice that my feelings had changed. After a short pause, he abruptly stated, “I’ll say yes to the proposal.”
Then he gave me an invitation and said, “Let’s go together tonight.”
It was a front-row seat to the Ancient Silver Strings Orchestra, which is my favourite.
I knew that this was Jonat’s way of making up for something. I thought about it for a second, but I still said yes to the offer because it was something he owed me.
He opened his mouth again, as if he had more to say, until he saw that I was still quiet. Just then, a loud ringtone broke his train of thought.
He answered immediately, and his face changed before he ran out of the office.
I knew it was his beloved Vian phoning. After all, she was the only one who could make Jonat, the head of the Werewolf Council, drop everything.
After he departed, I printed out my resignation letter, which I had already written, and proceeded to meet Vice Chairman Felix Caster. Felix was clearly shocked by my desire to leave. “Mia, are you resigning because of Alpha Jonat? ” he asked.”
I pulled my lips together and stayed quiet. I suddenly felt it was all a little funny. Everyone believed I was quitting because I couldn’t manage Jonat’s scolding or our private chat.
No one knew that we had been together before, and I only left when I had lost all affection for him.
I nodded without saying anything. After a while, Felix finally signed the approval.
I ran into Jonat and Vian at the door to the Werewolf Council Office as I was leaving.
Jonat’s eyes grew cold when he spotted me. “Mia, if you need something, wait until after work.”
He strolled past me with Vian in tow, and as he did, his eyes sent a warning.
I just didn’t say anything.
That night, I got to Silver Strings Theatre on time and by myself. The theatre was full, except for Jonat’s seat, which was still unoccupied.
Before this, whenever he asked me to go somewhere, I would always wait for him to get there before we went in together.
I didn’t wait any longer. I sat down alone and listened as the old songs slowly started to play.
Jonat never showed up, even after the last note was played. But I wasn’t mad.
I had committed a mistake five years ago, so why should I hold on to the last bit of warmth?
It didn’t matter if he saw that letter of resignation; I was still going to depart.
I didn’t go home after the movie. Instead, I walked about with my wolf the whole time.
The chilly wind blew through the night, and the streetlights made long shadows on the ground. Kista, my wolf, spoke up just as I saw the first firework bloom in the sky.
“He’s not our friend anymore. Let’s go. “Until we find your true mate, I’ll always be with you.”
There were a lot of beautiful fireworks in the night sky. I enjoyed watching fireworks, but just now, I couldn’t feel happy at all.
Of course, it would be hard to let go of a man I loved so much.
My phone started ringing incessantly at that point.
Jonat didn’t message me because he was worried.
He had let off silver-blue fireworks at the Moonlight Festival to celebrate Vian’s birthday. They could be seen all around Burna City, and the Werewolf World Council Gazette even put it on the front page.
I didn’t get home until early in the morning. The living room lights were on, and Jonat was sleeping on the couch. Was he waiting for me?
In the five years we were together, he always came home absolutely drunk. I was always afraid he would get hurt while drunk, so I called him a lot. I also worried that drinking too much might hurt his health, so I always made a hangover cure ahead of time.
Jonat told me over and over again that he didn’t want me to do these things because they made him feel old.
He might have heard me enter the door, but as I felt my mind slip away, he abruptly opened his eyes. As soon as he saw me, he jumped up and ran over to me, hugging me tightly.
“Where did you go?” Why didn’t you respond? Did you know that I already called the police? “he asked nervously.
I stopped for a second, then pushed away from him. “My phone froze and broke that snowy day I was waiting for you, so I didn’t get your call.”
When I brought up the snow, Jonat seemed to remember what had happened that day as well. A rare hint of shame crossed his usually piercing gaze. He pursed his lips and uncomfortably pulled out a jewellery box shaped like a wolf fang and handed it to me.
That was the truth and a reason to do something. The truth is that I didn’t want to go back. I really wanted to leave him for good.
