No? What does he mean 'no'? I briefly wondered as I gazed at the enraged male and raised a brow. Slowly, but surely his dark eye brightened to their normal color. I should be freaked out by this, but I've seen Rhena do it before and explained something about an eye problem. I learned to ignore it most of the time. His shoulders stopped shaking and he inhaled deeply.

"Sorry," he muttered, not looking at me in the eye.

I blinked slowly and glanced at the tall female, a bit startled to find out that she was already watching me. "Whatever. So, I'll be in the library to get my doujinshi, Rhena." I announced as I eased my way past the frozen group.

"I'll be there in a minute," Rhena glanced behind the other two and smiled at me, winking.

I shook my head and chuckled to myself. "Don't make his balls into ovaries." I pushed open the door and was rewarded by a dinging sound and a smile from the middle aged man behind the cashier register. I waved before making my way to the manga section and looking for the doujinshi of Kuroshitsuji. Once I found the volumes that I was looking for, I picked them up and made my way to the check out counter.

"More manga, eh? I wonder why people like them," mumbled the graying male. I laughed nervously, hoping that he wouldn't look into doujinshi. I don't need someone else to criticized me for what I enjoy. I paid for my things and hurried out the library, noticing that Rhena and the other two were still talking. I haven't seen such a serious face on Rhena before.

"Rhena, are you ready to go?" I interrupted their conversation, causing them to spin towards me. I saw Reid's face light up at the sight of me before he shook his head and scowled. Damn, he is so bi-polar. Rhena puffed out a breath and nodded her head at me. I walked around the unknown girl and Reid to stand beside my red headed friend.

"I'll be talking to Adrian about this, Reid. I'll see you later, Ariiana," she send the silent, dark beauty a smile before hooking her arm in my and dragging me away. I was vaguely aware that a sudden pain erupted in my chest as I locked eyes with Reid. I was yanked forward and our eye contact broke.

"I'm sorry about Reid," she glances at me with bright eyes. "He usually isn't such a bastard; he's really a good guy, but he has some problems to deal with on his own."

I shrugged my shoulder carelessly, trying not to think about how beautiful Reid's eyes were when they settled upon me. "I don't really care, ya know," I inwardly cursed at my speech impediment. Whenever I lied, I always say 'ya know' and unfortunately for me, Rhena caught on to it. She sent me a 'you-know-you-suck-at-lying-right' look and I shrugged sheepishly.

Reid POV

I don't know what's wrong with me. My wolf was constantly pissed off at me and whenever I think, see, or even smell my mate, he makes emotionally unstable. I, gamma of the Springs Pack, did not want a mate. Dealing with the pack-mates with their mates and children were enough for me. I had to listen and solve their problems. One jackass cheated on his mate with some unmated girl, and I had to punish him according to our law. Two days in the dungeon. Then, there's this pregnant girl who was mateless. Well, she did find her mate, but he just used her and left. This type of stuff makes me not want to have a mate, and mine being a guy just made it worst for me.

Fool, our mate would never cheat on us and there is nothing wrong with him being male, My wolf snarled at the very thought of it.

I scoffed. Our mate is human. He won't feel the pull as strongly as a werewolf mated pair. He could cheat on us without feeling any remorse. And I think it's wrong that our mate is male. I would like to have little Reid's running around one day.

He just growled and went silent. He knew that I was right. Besides, the human: werewolf ratio was just horrible. I couldn't do it, but when I look at him, all I want to do is hold him tight in my arms, smother him with kisses, hold his hand while we walk; anything that I could do with him, I want to do it. But then I don't want to do anything to with him as well.

I don't know what to do. My chest still stings with the rejection I gave him because my wolf refuses to let go of our mate.

And I just pray for the moon Goddess to let Alpha Adrian to go easy on my ass when Luna tells him what I've done.
