The Lycan King’s Rejected Soulmate by Fire Sprout

Chapter 80

Chapter 80
Avery
“Dante! What are you doing? I am your mother!” Madam Romanos shouted at the top of her lungs as her eyes glared at both Dante and I.
For some reason, I wanted to smile mockingly but I held back the urge.
“What are you still waiting for?” Dante asked as he directed his dangerous gaze at Luca. He did not even spare
his mother a glimpse.
Since madam Romanos refused to leave, Luca had to knock her out before he could take her to her room. Savina was dragged to the dungeon too.
Savina’s shrill pleas and screams was still resounding in my ear after they left.
I wondered if she ever thought about the consequences of her daring action.
I don’t know if she thought madam Romanos was her immunity. Even Madam Romanos had to bow down in front of Dante.
He wasn’t the lycan king for nothing.
She had the guts to scheme against Dante. If that wasn’t courage, I don’t know what is.
She had ignored his reputation of being ruthless.
Savina was like a moth going into the fire with no care for her life.
I feel like she had the absurd idea that Dante would fall in love with her if I left due to the image she staged in the bedroom I and Dante shared.
She was a risk taker.
The living room became more quieter as soon as they left.
Dante was still holding me tight and I was not able to dislodge.
I looked around.
The kids were not here. Before I stormed out in my grief, I had left them alone with Madam Romanos when I went to the bedroom I and Dante shared to deliver his meal.
“Where are the kids?” I asked.
I was not at ease with the absence of my pups. I wasn’t comfortable.
“Luca took them to their room to rest.” His magnetic voice replied.
I nodded.
My back was pasted on Dante’s chest so I could not see his face.
“Dante. I don’t want secrets that can be potentially da mning to be between us.” I started, “Communication is key.”
“Yes.” Dante’s voice vibrated through his chest and I felt every rise and fall of his tone from my back.
I felt like Dante is less angry now. The pesky flies that had been buzzing everywhere was nowhere to be found.

“When I saw you in bed with Savina, I was angry and I felt like leaving. Thank the goddess for Luca, he made me reconsider. He highlighted the suspicious areas for me.” I observed every inch of the furnitures my eyes can reach as I spoke.
Dante was silent for a second before he gave a reply to what I had said.
“I know.”
When I heard his words, the serious mood I had mustered up vanished like illusory smoke.
Unconsciously, a smile tugged at my lips.
I smacked his hand that was around my waist softly.
“Don’t use that word or that tone with me. It sounds like an execution command. I can’t unsee what just happened.” My eyes tw inkled as I joked.
His ‘I know’ was iconic.
It was like the call of death.
He hummed and I felt his aura turn softer. I could not see his face but I knew he was less moody naturally.
I nuzzled closer to him.
I wanted to do all the speaking for now.
Before today, Dante had always been putting in efforts. The days I did not want to say much, he makes sure he fills 80% of our conversations with his words.
That meant a lot to me.
I was ready to show thanks now that he is not in the mood to converse.
I waved my hands in front of my face to signal the joke was over.
“Dante, I know we have been dating for a period of time. It is neither too long or too short. You did not like the fact that I was running away from you.” I resumed my stare at the furnitures and their designs. “Yes. I sometimes wonder why you always ran from me. I thought my ruthless reputation got to you.” Dante was willing to say a couple more words now.
I was happy because I felt like his anger was mellowing.
I could talk about our relationship and at the same time, I would cool my lycan down. It was worth it. It was killing two birds with one stone.
I shook my head, “You weren’t the reason. You are a good man.” I paused as I smiled trickily before I turned around a bit so I could kiss his cheek, “Or rather, you are a good lycan. Me escaping from you and our mating bond is because of my past experiences.”
The aura around Dante that had softened immediately regained its hardmess. I was speechless but I was happy at the same time.
“Did anybody hurt you? I will rip them apart!” Dante growled and his hands that were like iron bands tightened.
I was happy that he was enraged for my case but I have thrown all that to the back of my mind now.
This was the evidence of my growth.
I could look at my past without agonizing about how I behaved or how other people behaved.
I have come into terms with it.
I feel sad sometimes but overall, I did not let my past imprison me anymore.
Although bits of my character and my behaviors had evolved into something that was different from the original, I was still myself deep down..
At least, my habit of acknowledging my mistakes haven’t changed.
“Hold your horses Dante, it is all in the past.” I said before turning to face him, “Do you think the solution
to all the people that offended me is for you to rip them apart?” I am sure the world’s population would not be far from dwindling then.”
He did not reply.
“I disliked the mate bond. I even took wolfsbane so that my werewolf senses towards mates would be dulled.” A nostalgic look crossed my eyes.
That time, I thought my life was already unfortunate.
I had lost my mother and the pack disliked me.
Only Sadie and my wolf, Silver was there as my pillars of support.
Now, my wolf was in hibernation and Sadie had turned into something I can not recognize.
The old Sadie was gone.
It was like my present self had undergone a rewrite.
Still, as I lost people, I found people too.
In the long run, I did not lose at all.
“Why?” Dante asked.
He did not say much but his question warmed my heart.
“I was rejected by my first mate in front of the pack. I don’t know if you would understand my pain. I would like to understand.” My voice was level and I tapped my fingers on Dante’s arms to keep my idle hands busy.
“I can’t. I did not go through what you experienced.” His reply was like his current state. Short and concise.
I stopped tapping his arms, “You are right, you can not understand but I appreciate you trying to know me better. It goes a long way. I lived an unsatisfactory life and I thought having a mate will change that.” I laughed wryly, “It didn’t. Nobody wanted an omeg―”

“Stop. Don’t say such things next time or my punishment would be severe. I want you and no person or thing would change that. You are beautiful, both inside and outside. Those that think otherwise are blind.” Dante interrupted me.
