Chapter 35
Anasiaxia
Julian got so pissed that he raised his hand and knocked Sean out in one go.
*Sean!”
I screamed and went towards Julian who was punching and kicking Sean as if he was his arch
nemesis.
“Julian, stop it. You will kill him!”
I shouted, trying to stop him. But my words probably did not reach his ears. Even Sean wouldn’t shut his mouth.
“That got you all riled up, didn’t it? You know why, because it is the truth.”
Sean too began kicking and punching him. There was blood everywhere.
“Stopit!!!!!!”
screamed my lungs out and the two finally noticed that I was still around.
I was shaking with anger and both of them looked at me at once. Julian lowered his hand and noticed the blood on my face.
He asked me in a horrified voice.
“Were you hurt?”
I let out an irritated breath. “Physically, no. Emotionally, yes.”
He had opened his mouth to say something but closed it when he heard my reply.
Sean straightened his shirt and wiped his mouth while assessing the bruises and cuts he had received.
The guards were simply staring, wondering when to jump in the fight because their alpha did not. want to look weak and unable to tackle a single man.
Julian turned to the guards and scowled, “What are you looking at? Get her a towel and some water to wash her face.”
One of the guards nodded and hurriedly went inside but I shook my head.
“There is no need for that, Julian. Consider this to be our last meeting.”
1/4
Julian’s face fell. There was blood on his face and bruises again.
“Please, just talk to me.”
Sean growled from behind me. “No, Anastasia. We leave, right now.”
I turned to him and said in a firm voice. “I think I can decide what to do and when to do it.”
A hint of smirk appeared on Julian’s face when I reprimanded Sean who tried to reason.
He was never right for you, Anastasia. Your parents saw it, my parents saw it, hell, I saw it too.”
Julian retorted, “Nordik, keep your nose and opinion out of other people’s matters or you will neither have a nose nor a dick.”
I rolled my eyes at Julian. He shut up and then I turned to Sean.
“Just wait for me in the car and clean yourself up. Go.”
Sean shot one scathing look at Julian but walked away reluctantly.
I folded my hands and then glared at Julian who looked at me and asked, “What?”
I shook my head. “Proud of yourself for that clever pun?”
He began. “At least you agree it was clever.”
I rubbed my temple again.
“Julian, anger and violence are not the solution to everything. How many times have I told you to use your brain instead of your tongue or hands?”
He kicked a stray rock and then winced when a sharp pain shot up his knee.
I did not go near him but stood in front of him with my hands folded.
The guard returned with water and a towel and I washed my face before wiping it with the towel.
“This is your problem, Julian. You are reckless, stubborn, and can’t ever function without raising a fist or your voice.”
He shot me a hurt look.
“I did not raise my voice on you or my fist. He started calling me names.”
“I am not here to babysit you, Julian. You are the alpha of a pack for Goddess’s sake. Act like one.”
“An alpha is incomplete without his Luna, Anastasia. I cannot rest until I win you back.”

Now it was my tula to well
“That is not happening. You put your fated mate above me, fucked her, and marked her while I had passed out from the exhaustion of the new”
Julian cried. “I told you it was because of the fated mate bond. I could not resist it. And I did not fuck her that day, I just
“I don’t want to know how you stopped yourself after giving in to the mate bond. I don’t want to know how many seconds it took you before you realized you are married and have a wife waiting for you at home.”
I was shaking with rage. I did not like the fact that we were discussing this out in the open with guards, and Sean probably heard all of it.
But words kept tumbling out of my mouth no matter how hard I tried to resist it. The agony, pain, and hurt of five years had just bubbled up after Angelica asked me how I used to satisfy him in bed
and I lost it.
“I am sorry, Anastasia. What do you want me to do? Tell me and I will do it.”
I fought the tears that were itching to come out. Swallowing hard, I replied,
“There is nothing you can do now. And why are you resisting the glorious pull of the mate bond now? Your mate is waiting for you in bed. Go, take her like you did that day.”
I hated the way my voice sounded.
He wiped the blood trickling down his eyebrow and fell to his knees.
“Please Anastasia, it was wrong of me. I should have thought how it would affect you, how it would hurt you. I did not and for that, I am extremely sorry.”
“Sorry won’t cut it, Julian. I am not here to have this discussion with you.”
I took in a few more shaky breaths before adding.
“I made an exception for Vivian and you have taken the blood oath to never force me or hurt daughter. I hope you live up to it.”
“I will, Anas…”
my
I raised my head and turned my back to him, not wanting to let him see how red my eyes were.
“And you are not going to interfere in my life the way I did not in yours. You are going to walk respectfully and give me the dignity of my choice.”
He took a step forward again and came to stand in front of me.

“Please Anastasia, give ane one chance to make it right. I cannot see you with anybody else. I cannot even think of it.”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
I scoffed. “It is high time you got a taste of your own medicine, Julian.”
“No, Anastasia, please don’t go.”
I hurried towards the car and sat in it without hearing whatever he had to say. He banged on the window, bloodied and bruised but I walked away from him, walked away from what had been my home and my dream.
Sean did not require my instruction and he started the ignition the moment I got in.
I was not much of a crier. I would seldom let tears fall down my face. I had always seen my father rule the pack and never let emotions affect him.
I had not seen him cry. So I had somehow molded myself into this woman who was strong and stubborn like my father.
Someone who was good enough to lead a pack despite being a girl. I learned to be a tough leader, excel at fighting, pack administration, and everything in between, only because from a young age we were told that she wolves were supposed to find mates, give birth to pups, and ensure that the alpha and the pack had an heir.
I had desperately wanted to get out of that cycle. But meeting Julian had ended that. He drew me in like a moth to flame and I was so in love with him that I forgot everything else. I turned a blind eye to his impulsive behavior, reckless attitude, and a penchant for violence.
And now I was paying the price. It was instinct to not cry at the first sign of misery and hold my chin up even if things were going downhill.
I clutched my heart as I let my breathing return to normal and stared outside the window, letting tears finally stream down my face.
