MAIA'S POV
They said that finding your mate was the best thing in the world, well at least that was what they said in our world. That day, I was about to know if my boyfriend of three years was my mate or not. Deep inside, I hoped he was my mate.
Ever since my parents died, I have always had trust issues. It scared me because no one was there to protect me anymore. I had been all myself until Uriah came.
On my way to the park, I sent Uriah a text letting him know I had arrived at our meeting place. I sat at our favorite swing as I waited for him. Wearing the best dress I had, I did my best to look as pretty as possible. I wanted to be the most beautiful she-wolf when we found out if we were mates.
I have been waiting for an hour and there were still no signs of Uriah.
"Where could he be?" I asked myself.
I sent him another text asking his whereabouts. Another ten minutes passed and there were still no signs of him. I was getting uneasy in my place. Especially since the skies were turning gray, and it looked like it was about to rain.
"Really? Out of all the dates we have had, he had to keep me waiting on the most special day of all. This birthday is getting worse." I complained to no one in particular.
Instead of sending him another text, I called him. I waited for him to pick up his phone as it rang.
*KRING KRING*
*KRING KRING*
*KRING KRING*
*Hi, it's Uriah. I am busy at the moment. Leave a message, and I will get back to you once I am free. Bye.*
"Damn, that voicemail!" I cursed.
*KRING KRING*
*KRING KRING*
*KRING KRING*
"Come on, Uriah. Pick up the damn call." I muttered to myself.
Another ten minutes had passed, and there were still no signs of Uriah. I felt a raindrop on my arm, so I went straight to his apartment instead of waiting. Luckily, his apartment was not far. I took a cab when the rain poured.
"To the Villas, please," I said to the driver upon entering the cab.
The ride to his apartment only took ten minutes, but that ten minutes cost me my one day salary. What annoyed me was that as soon as we left the park, the rain stopped.
After giving the driver my payment, I went down and smoothed my cramped dress. I looked up and was about to cross the street when I saw Uriah standing outside his apartment gate. Instead of calling his name, I crossed the street to surprise him.
I was going to surprise him. Instead, he surprised me.
He was standing there kissing another woman. It was not a quick peck on the lips or the cheeks. It was a literal French kiss style.
I was fuming with anger. I stormed up to them and pulled Uriah by his shoulder. When he was facing me already, I gave him a good slap on the face.
*SLAP*
"This is for keeping me waiting while you are here mouth fucking another girl." I said.
*SLAP*
"This is for cheating on me."
