Saving Kinsley
Mates

Kinsley's POV

I watched as Danielle finally caved to my mates demand and stomped off. About damn time.

"What's your name?" My mate asked. His voice was like velvet, but stern. "Kinsley. Kinsley Hart." I said to him, as I watched him. He looked away from me, like he was pained to talk to me. I watched as his chest rose and fell while he took in deep breaths, and finally he looked up and met my gaze. "I'm sorry, but I have to do this." Do what? "I, Dakota Warren future Alpha of the Sallow pack, reject you Kinsley Hart as my Mate and future Luna."

Pain. My heart felt like it was being ripped from my chest when he spoke those words, I could feel the bond being severed. I could hear my wolf's mournful howls roaring in my head. I broke. I fell to the ground as the breath was sucked from my lungs, this pain was unbearable. I felt like I was being ripped into two pieces, god it hurt.

I screamed from the pain " W- why?" I managed to finally ask as he walked away from me, while I clutched at the pain in my chest. He stopped in his path, but didn't look at me. Why would he? "Because I love her."

Sobs wracked my body when he finally walked away from me. Alone, I'll always be alone. "I'm sorry ember, but not even our mate want's us." I told my wolf, and she replied with a broken whimper. I could feel her pain, and her mine. I felt as she disappeared further inside of me, until I no longer heard her whimpers. I laid where he left me alone, on the ground under the moon and cried. I screamed so the moon could hear my pain, as it my only witness to the pain in my soul. Alone.

I cried so hard that there was no longer any tears, I couldn't scream anymore since I had already exhausted my voice hours ago. I was so tired, tired of fighting all the time. I couldn't fight the heaviness in my eyes anymore. I closed my eyes and slipped off the edge into sleep.

Warmth wrapped around me, and I pushed further into it. I could hear a voice but it was to far off into the distance. My body felt like it was floating, and then slowly it started to sway. I slipped further into unconsciousness, the motions pulling me further in.

My eyes fluttered open, and at first everything was black. Colors started to come into focus, and then a face. "Where am I? Who are you?" where the hell am I.

"Woah slow down kid, you're in my house. I found you in the woods, three days ago. What happened to you? oh I'm Noah. Future Beta of Sallow pack, at your service." The brown haired man said to me. I've been out for three days? I stared at him, processing what he just said. What happened to you? His question played back to me. "He rejected me." I told him, looking down away from his peering blue eyes. As soon as I said that a growl came out of Noahs chest "Who, who rejected you?" His voice asked deep and distorted. I could tell his wolf was coming to the surface.

"It doesn't matter who. He rejected me because he loves her. Thanks for taking care of me, but I need to go see alpha now, I need a transfer out. I'm not wanted by my mate or this pack." I can't stay here and watch him love her, instead of me. I'll make it easy and leave. I walked towards the door but was stopped by a hand holding it shut "Let me at least take you there?" I sighed. "fine."

We walked silently to the pack house. The pack house came into view, an exhausted sigh leaving my lips. I know he'd be in there, with her. Shaking my head and pushing my anger aside I straightened and released a breath. I have to do this, leave. I pushed the heavy doors open, and walked quietly to the alphas office.

On our way to the alphas office, Noah and I ran into none other than Dakota. I groaned at the sight of him, I just wanted to get in and out, leave with no problems. I hated that I still felt the pull to him. "What are you doing here" His deep voice came out, as he narrowed his eyes at me and then to Noah who stood closely next to me. A deep growl came from Dakota when he noticed me step closer to Noah. Oh now he wanted to play the part of being my mate. I narrowed my eyes at Dakota " I'm here to see alpha, I'm requesting a transfer out." I watched as his gaze snapped from Noah to me, I could see shock cross his face and then something else. "Kinsley, I-" Cutting him off with my own growl, he didn't get to be jealous or have a say in what I did. "No Dakota. Just don't. You made your choice and now I'm making mine."

I could hear a deep growl from my right where Noah stood, I turned to him to see he was staring Dakota down with his chest heaving. "You rejected her? How could you do that!" I turned to Noah and placed my hand on his chest to tell him to let it go but was met with a growl from behind me. I groaned and rolled my eyes, I don't have the energy for this.

"Kinsley get your hand off of him. now." I whirled around facing Dakota now, I stepped forward and poked his chest "YOU, don't get to tell ME what to do. You lost that right when you rejected me. Now move." I held his gaze as I spoke I could see sadness flash across his green eyes before he turned his gaze away from me "Fine, leave." He said and turned and stormed out.

Why couldn't anything ever be easy? I sighed and knocked on the office door. "Come in, Kinsley." Alphas deep baritone voice boomed from the other side of the door. I opened it and walked in. "What is it that you need Kinsley?" He asked while not even sparing me a look. " I want to request a transfer out of the pack, alpha." He stopped what he was doing and looked up at me. "No." What? No? You've got to be kidding me right now, "Alpha, I need a transfer out. please." I said again this time stressing the Please. "I heard you and I said No. That's final."

I felt my wolf stir inside of me and his eyes snapped to me "Kinsley, don't" I could feel pressure pushing me down, trying to make me submit from his gaze. It felt like a switch flipped inside of me and now I was pissed off. He was suppose to protect me, he was my alpha and yet he sat back and did nothing after all the years of abuse. Now he wanted to deny my leaving. A deep growl came from my chest " I will not submit, you are no alpha to me." I spat out as I held his gaze.

I turned my back to him and stomped out of the office slamming the door behind me. I pushed the heavy front doors open and inhaled the fresh air, calming me down. The scent of Pine trees and rain hit me and I groaned, Dakota. "You're not leaving Kinsley." The hell if I'm not. I opened my eyes and glared down at Dakota, " I am leaving." He stepped closer to me and gripped my arm "No you are not" I looked at him and straightened my self while ripping my arm from his grip.

"I, Kinsley Hart, accept your rejection Dakota Warren, future alpha of Sallow pack." I could feel that final piece shred from me but I refused to let the pain consume me anymore, he didn't want me. I watched as Dakota fell to his knees clutching his chest, I knew what he felt, but he didn't feel a fraction of what I had. A part of me felt bad for doing this, but I had too. I couldn't stay, and he wouldn't let me leave.

I walked away from him like he did me, shifting into my Auburn wolf. I headed for the border I knew of, that was 15 minutes from me and darted to it. A howl ripped though the air, one of pain. I knew it was Dakota.
