Can't Go There

"What's going on here?"

She asks while looking between Cameron and Dante who seems to be

hiding something from her, something that the boys didn't know that

she was already aware of. Her days were better without him but seeing

him again all her good mood disappears and she wonders why the hell

was he doing here as she was doing well without him in her sight.

Daniella has a walk-in them talking and what she hated the most is

when Cameron told him bits of her past, not the almost rape part but

the one where her parents neglected her as their daughter. Before

Cameron could say anything further she made herself known to them.

"Guys I know" as if they were caught in action neither of the boys spoke

up so she asks to have a moment alone with Dante.

Once her bedroom door closed Daniella saw the look in his eyes there

was definitely pity there which she hates the most. Her wolf whimper

for their mate's closure but Daniella wasn't a fool enough to let it

happen not after everything he did to her.

"Dani I'm sor-" she stops him right there

"so what? Let me guess you want to take back your rejection now just

because you pity me now" Dante moves to her but she took a step

back.

"Tell the truth Dante" he tries to move to her again but she pushes him

back

"no it's not true, I don't pity you this is me telling you how I really feel

that I am truly sorry for everything and be the moon goddess be damn

because I really do care for you, Dani.”

She laughs at him "care" she scoffs "I think you should reconsider your

words but mark mine Dante... I'll never love you back, and it doesn't

mean I'll accept your rejection or reject you. I'll make you pay Dante"

Daniella strutted past him, leaving them behind. She walks up to

Cameron "you didn't have to do that, telling him my life. It's my choice

whether to tell him or not,"

"look I trust Dante and I want him to protect you when or if I'm not

around especially when there are constant attacks on the border and

the rogues" he tries to reason with her.

Yet she only looks at him with disappointment Laura instantly took the

kids up Clyde waving goodbye at her.

"Maybe you should look for your mate Dani, I think it's time-" She

laughed at that haughtily muffling any words he was to say.

"Well, guess what Cam I don't have to because he is my fucking mate”

she screams at him before storming outside of the house.

Now Cameron knows her secret the one that she wanted to keep

between just him and her. She quickly dials Kiev's number. She waited

for him to answer it

“hello” he answers "Kiev, can you please come to pick me up” "okay

sure thing” 10 more minutes and Kiev was there to pick her up before

she got into the car someone calls her.

She turns to find Dante in front of the house "Dani, please don't do

this" he came running out of the house towards her.

"Dani, please come back to the house let's talk this out"

Ignoring him she throws one last look at him before getting into Kiev's

car. She saw him in the mirror still looking at them as they left.

Dante curse under his breath, turning around he got tackle down on

the lawn then received two punches at him. His wolf has now

resurfaced hating that someone just disrespects them

"What exactly did you do to her?" Cameron screams at him Dante flip

him on his back

"you dare throw me another punch and my wolf and I won't hesitate to

make you a cripple for life." He let go of him then lying on the lawn

beside him.

"Why did you do that to her?” Cameron asks Dante didn't speak for a

minute.

He thought back on his conversation with his sister Zoe. Yes, she was

the one he calls for advice in which she blew him off, lecturing him on

the life of a Mate and he should be the one to protect not to push her

away.

She also suggested for him to fix everything between the two of them

instead he ignores her. Well, it took weeks for Dante to muster up that

courage, and here he was trying to make things right but only to turn in

another direction. How messy their situation is and how f up his life

now.

He slowly began to tell Cameron about everything starting from the

time he rejected her, comparing her to Alexis up until last week. Dante

told him a reason which for Cam was understandable from a male wolf

perspective.

"Did you love her?" Cameron asks Dante "Alexis, did you love her as

your first luna and mate despite her cheating on you with Kiev"

Dante quickly responded "I think some part of me did but never really

act upon it, I was too young to realize or reciprocate those feelings for

anyone. I have too many obligations at the time to care,” Cam half-

smile

"and Dani?"

"I care for her, and she's the first one I want to protect and care for. You

know I started to want to love someone completely at the wrong time. I

found her at the time where my pack needs me the most" Cameron pat

him on the shoulder.

“Then tell her that, show her more than what you just made of. I still

don't like what you did but I prefer you over the cheating jerk who just

picked her up.”

They sat there for a while before Dante bolt upright cursing more to

himself.

"what is it?" Cam asks

"Jem mind links there's an attack on our southern border by the Rogues

and hunters,” he gazes back at Cameron.

"Look out for her" he turns away from Cameron rushing in to the

woods and shifted in to his wolf form.
