Chapter 2

• Kavis POV
• I reject you as my mate
• He said with a smirk but the little jerk of his body made his pain clear.
• You cant do this to me. This is not supposed to be like this. Mates are blessings.
• She cried holding onto her chest and fell on her knees. Her friends rushed to help her while shouting profanities at him. He just laughed in reply.
• I slowly walked past them with a blank face looking at the floor. But my mind focused on her erratic heartbeat. I felt her pain in my chest which almost choked me. My mind concentrated on her heartbeat to heal her pain. I need to first experience their pain to heal it. I could only give temporary relief. She has to go through the pain of bond severing.
• Oh, I am not a witch but a healer. Its one of my many secrets. No one knows that I have the power of healing abilities. But I will help people who need me the most without their knowledge. The reason is I wanted to be invisible. Because not all Pack will have a healer wolf. And its kinda rare to be blessed/inheriting with those powers. I entered the class and took my usual right corner seat where no one else would sit next to me.
• I am Kavithanjali. Everyone will call me Kavi. And Im 16 years old. Thank the Moon! I didnt find my mate yet. I hate this mate theory. And I hate men more. I respect a few men but that didnt alter my hatred towards them.
• Everyone thinks I am an average student in the school. But it was my cover to not attract any attention. And I am well masked myself into my usual unattractive outfit. And trust me, I have no friends in the school. This is a private school for werewolf of our Mountain Shadow pack. Every pack has its school to condition the pups according to their pack rules. And if werewolves want to do the degree, we have to go to humans colleges as most wolves dont go for colleges. The day passed with the usual classes. I ate my home-packed lunch under my favourite lime tree in the back yard of the school campus. I have a special pass to skip my physical education class which happens to be the last class. Just one more month to end this torture. I started walking towards pack hospital.
• No worries! I am not sick. My mom, Anu Radha is the pack doctor. You might think I would have got the healing abilities from her. But, no. She is not a healer. She studied medicine and working here for the past seven years. And I got the special pass from her stating I need extra care as I wasnt able to shift after the age of twelve so I am basically a human in front of my pack mates. And thats a fat lie which no one knows including my mom. And thats my excuse to train alone in the woods. Once in every year, I will go to the northern region where a pack of werewolves live in their wolf form and they were so animalistic and will kill without any mercy. I am training my wolf with them as they were the most powerful werewolves in their wolf form. I will stay there for a month during school vacations.
• And that lie is a gateway to learning humans martial arts. I learnt karate and kickboxing. I never went to the competition with human as my wolf strength would overpower them. Also, I learnt to use the pistol and learnt archery. That helped me a lot to build a strong self and also a great opportunity to learn humans lifestyle. Befriending a human other than one's mate is a punishable offence as it might lead them to danger. So I had no luck with human friends too.
• I opened my moms office and smiled at her. She was drowned in her work that she didnt even sense my presence. I frowned as her wolf should have sensed me already. I sat opposite to her chair.
• Hi, mom. How was your day?
• I asked happily. She is one of the few people I speak with less filter. She looked up at me and frowned.
• Hey Kavi, As usual, hectic with yesterdays rogue attack. Why are you here? Aren't you going to Kalais shop? Or do you need money from me?
• I sighed.
• I have an hour before the work time and thought I could drop by here to see you. And you have kept enough money at home for this whole month.
• She gave me a small smile and busied herself into some x-ray examination. I rolled the paperweight which earned me a glare from my mom. I let out a deep sigh and got up from my seat.
• Bye, mom
• She nodded without even looking at me. Great! My wolf let out a low growl in my mind as she never liked disrespect. And she knew not to let out any wolfish sounds which might reveal my secrets. She is my only companion for my lone self. But she understands me and supports me in whatever I do. And she is a really very good girl to obey me and she never took advantage over my human side.
• Its not that my mom doesnt love me. She loves me but she doesnt want me near her even after a lot of my efforts. And I understand her reasons and stayed away as I don't want to hurt her anymore. And that's the reason she engages herself in work from the dawn till midnight. And I would only see her once in a while like this visit.
• I plugged my earphones to my mobile and made sure the volume is in one as with my enhanced hearing, my ears would bleed with the noise of higher volume levels. Right before I open the door, the door opened and Alpha Vinodhan walked in. I looked down at my feet which would look like I am bowing my head. The forty years old Alpha gave me a mean look and walked up to my moms table and occupied the seat I occupied earlier. He is one of the men I hate, for not treating she-wolves equally and there is only minimal defence training for a she-wolf which would never help in a real battle. And I knew he personally thinks me as the weakest excuse of a wolf.
• Have you tried it again?
• It was a question directed for me. And thats the same question he asks whenever we meet. If only my mom is not a dedicated pack doctor, he would have kicked me out of the pack long back.
• After all, who would want a werewolf without shifting abilities?
• Yes Alpha, I tried. But I couldnt shift
• I said in my usual low toned voice trying hard to sound sincere. He nodded with thinking.
• Shift!
