Chapter 1
Bella’s pov
I winced when the needle pierced my arm, the doctor gave me a gentle smile.
“I forgot to warn you that it will hurt,” he said.
“It’s okay,” I said.
It was. I would do absolutely everything for my sister. Kate needed blood and I was a match, not that it was a problem.
I would search the world to find her blood type if I wasn’t.
The doctor took out the needle and carried the blood out to the lab. I gently stood up to avoid getting dizzy.
My head swayed but I held onto the chair, I had to be near my sister. I didn’t want to be away from her.
I headed back to her room , the dark spots dancing around my vision. I got to her room and I was surprised to find it locked.
We had asked for a private room but I left the door open just in case. I placed my hand on the handle when a shiver ran through me.
I furrowed my brows.
I turned the knob and pushed the door open, my eyes narrowed on the two figures on the bed, naked.
I bowed my head, “I am so sorry,” I mumbled.
Afraid that I just interrupted an important moment for them, I moved to go away but I paused when my eyes settled on a very familiar handbag.
“Kate?” I asked.
My sister sprung apart from the guy she was kissing, her face flushed with guilt.
“Bella, I didn’t mean for this to happen…” her hoarse voice faded away.
My eyes were caught on the man In front of me, his eyes refused to leave mine. I was caught in a trance.
My eyes trailed the length of him, my wolf screamed at me to claim him but after what I just saw, I was more confused than ever.
“Bella, meet my boyfriend. I was going to introduce you to him but this happened and well, haha you know the rest.”
Her words brought me out of the fog and I blinked to make sure this wasn’t a dream.
“Your boyfriend?” I asked,
She nodded excitedly and for the second time today, my heart lodged in my throat.
I should have felt happy for my sister since this was the first time she was bringing her mate home.
A few months ago, I found out my sister had indeed met her mate, she was reluctant to show me but I insisted.
I had asked why she was keeping it a secret but she told me she needed to be private because of his position in the pack.
I never met him till now.
“Uh, oh okay,” I licked my lips. My heart raced with a thrill when his eyes tracked the movement.
I almost swooned at his face when his eyes met mine again.
The man looked at me from my head to toe, his eyes never missing an inch of my body. His eyes left something in me.
He stood up and left a confused Kate on the bed, he walked closer to me and looked at me with his eyes.
He was frozen, eyes never leaving mine.
“Bella,” he began. He almost held my hand, but I withdrew. He hesitated to speak, and I could probably guess what he wanted to say to me.
My eyes automatically closed at the sound of his voice washed over me, the way he said my name had chills running down my back.
I opened my mouth to say something when the sound of hesitant footsteps stopped me,
I looked at my sister who was staring at us with confusion swimming in her eyes, my chest tightened.
She said nothing as she stared at me. My throat constricted as I watched her wrap her arms around him and snuggled into him.
Jealousy like I have never felt before flared inside me but I chased it away.
“Have you met before?” She asked, her eyes betraying everything she didn’t want to voice out.
I wanted to tell Kate that he was my destined mate but I couldn’t.
I couldn’t do that to my sister.
I shook my head and smiled as brightly as I could, “no,” I said.
She nodded but she wasn’t convinced. I nodded at her to assure her that everything was okay.
“I am going to give you guys a minute.” I said.
I closed the door behind me, my tears rolling out faster as I walked down the hallway. My hands on my lips to prevent the sobs from spilling out.
I turned the corner and sank to the floor in despair, my sobs came out harsher and I quickly dried my tears.
I closed my eyes and leaned against the hallway, scolding myself for showing signs of weakness.
A shadow fell over me and I opened my eyes, surprised to see him standing there with a grim face
