Filed to story: Rylee the Orphan Luna Novel
I couldn’t believe my eyes. Melody Valencia was my mate. Could the moon goddess have given a more perfect mate? I think not. I always found her to be attractive, but she is Wyatt’s baby sister, so I never pursued her. Never in my wildest dreams did I think Melody would be my destined mate. When we made eye contact, my heart stopped beating. She was even more perfect than I remember. Her petite stature, her small yet sexy frame, her light brown hair with silver highlights, her beautiful teal eyes, button nose, rosy cheeks, and kissable lips. At that moment, she owned my entire soul.
I was about to go to her and claim her, but the two she-wolves from before wrapped their arms around me and started to paw at me again. No, no, no, no, no, no, I thought to myself. I looked up at Melody again and she scoffed. I saw the hurt flash in her eyes. NO! f**k! She faced Wyatt, and he immediately turned to me, his eyes black with anger. I’m a dead man. He comes stomping towards me, when I see Rylee talk to Melody, then Melody took off running back into the packhouse.
“MELODY WAIT!!” I yell after her and push the she-wolves off of me. Before I could even take one step to run after my mate, Wyatt stepped in front of me and growled.
“Kendrick, you and I need to have a talk,”
Ah f**k.
“OH s**t!” I scream as Wyatt throws me into the wall of his office.
“Wyatt, calm down!” Jason says trying to stop him from killing me.
“TWO MINUTES!!” Wyatt snarls. “IT TOOK YOU ALL OF TWO f*****g MINUTES TO BREAK MY SISTER’S HEART!”
“I didn’t mean to! I swear man! Those she-wolves came out of nowhere!” I defend myself.
Though I was flirting with them before I realized Melody was my mate.
“You just admitted to flirting with them!” Rylee shouted.
“Rylee! Don’t read my thoughts!” I shouted at her with betrayal in my voice. Damn her powers. “And it was before I knew Melody was my mate!” I defended myself again before Wyatt decided to throw me against another wall. “Where is he!?” I heard Ronan’s voice. Oh f**k, this was not good. He threw the door open, and his eyes were also black as night. “KENDRICK NESLONEY!!” He roared.
“Oh god, please Uncle Ron…AHHH!!” He threw me against the other wall I was hoping to avoid.
“Honey, don’t kill him!” Aunt Grace said stopping him from throwing me again.
“Aunt Grace, I’m fine, I…”
*SLAP*
“Owww…” I hold my cheek and look at her. Aunt Grace has the worse slaps in the world. She may be small, but she packs quite the punch. “You guys, I swear, I didn’t mean for that to happen,” “Kendrick, what did I tell you about sleeping around!” Wyatt shouted.
“I know man, I’ve cut back, but I won’t deny that I was going to take those two she-wolves to my room, but then Melody’s scent my got attention, and those thoughts were gone, they were finished, finite, non-existent,” “Why didn’t you push them away faster you dumbass!” Milan shouted at me.
“It all happened so quickly, I didn’t have time to react,” I replied rolling my neck and holding my lower back. Thank god for rapid healing. “Come on, you guys know I would never hurt Mel, she’s family, and now she’s my mate,” “Only if she accepts you,” Ronan says to me.
“Please, you guys, help me win her over. I want to be with her,”
“What makes you think I want you to be with my baby sister?”
“Wyatt, you can’t interfere with the mate bond,” Grace says to him. “It’s not up to you to decide, it’s up to Melody,”
“I care about her, everyone in this room knows that,” I plead. “I didn’t expect this to happen, let alone tonight of all nights, but I promise, I’m going to love her. I’ve always been attracted to her, even when we were younger, but I never pursued her,” “Why?” Rylee asks.
“Seriously? She’s Wyatt’s baby sister, Rylee. No man ever pursues their best friend’s baby sister,” I reply to her. Rylee just puckers her lips and nods.
“Is it wrong for me to say that I can hear her right now,” Rylee said.
“What?” we all ask.
“I can hear her thoughts, it’s pretty strong, along with everyone in this damn castle,”
“What is she thinking, dearest?” Wyatt asks her.
“Umm…” She squints hers and scrunches her face trying to concentrate. “Why the man-slut?”
“Pfft!!” Jason and Milan try to hold in their laughter. I growl at them.
“She’s also saying, or rather thinking, should I reject…” Rylee stops what she’s saying and presses her lips together.
“She wants to reject me?” I ask. I feel my heart starting to break. “No, she can’t, I want to be with her. Guys, help me prove to her that I can change, please!?” I beg everyone, even Ronan and Grace.
“How about Rylee and I go talk to her?” Milan suggests. They both get up and leave Wyatt’s office. Please, moon goddess, please let them get through to her. .
***Melody’s
P.O.V.***
Why!? Why the man-slut!? I think to myself.
“It could have been anyone else in this damn pack, and it had to be Kendrick Nesloney! Moon goddess, is this sick joke!?” I shout to the ceiling of my room. I grab my hair and just grunt in frustration. I finally finish school and come home to congratulate my brother and Rylee, and I’m given my mate, and of all the f*****g wolves in the world, it was him. Kendrick, the one guy I wished would pay attention to me growing up but never did. At first, I thought it was some kind of honor code amongst ‘bros’ but that rationale went out the window when I saw him making out with Jason’s sister Tasha when he was 17 and I was 15.
Since then, Kendrick has been with goddess only knows how many girls and rumor has it, he did threesomes a lot, and it made me sick. But even then a part of me always felt drawn to him. I expected him to find his mate as soon as he turned 18, but he didn’t. It was crazy. The only person out of my brother’s group of friends who found their mate at 18 was Jason. Milan is a few months older than he is, so she knew right away Jason was her mate. She even broke up with her longtime boyfriend to be with Jason, and that did not bode over well.
Maybe I should just reject him. I think to myself. It would save me the heartache of being with a player who would probably end up cheating on me anyway.
You have the worst attitude, you know that?
Come on, Tundra, you’re not actually thinking about accepting him, are you?
Why not? He’s yummy.
