One Day, I Woke Up A Werewolf

Chapter 29

Hailey's POV

"We have a meeting to attend with the alpha of this land." Theo says, walking in to my room.

"What about?" I ask.

"About you. About their son finding his mate and the future you two will bring to the werewolf world." He says.

Sitting on my bed, Theo let's out a sigh.

I see the worried look on his face and I sit beside him, gently taking his hand with mine and squeezing it.

"To be honest, I'm not sure if you will be well received there and I don't have enough men to protect you." He tells me.

"Why would they reject me? I am a wolf too." I say.

Suddenly sadness floods my heart and the excitement of making things official with Jaxon dissipating, leaving nothing but hurt to dwell in there.

"Hailey, people don't trust the unknown. They don't like change and we are all guilty of this... everyone. Yes, you may be a little excited about this love story because it means you get to be with that boy and you want everyone to share in the joy but this is a first for many, even for you my human pup. I just want you to make sure you stick close to Jaxon." He says and I nod my head, his words rang true.

I can understand how people will reject  my union with Jaxon. They can't fathom a union between two wolves, it has never been done but he is their soon to be alpha and for that, they may have to respect it.

"I know I'll be fine. I was not chosen to be harmed along the way, yes it won't be easy but nothing in my life has ever been. I know true rejection and the one that hurts is not from strangers but from the ones I hold dear. So, if they don't accept me, that's their decision based on what they know and what they have been taught to believe for thousands of years. I can't force that upon them, in time they will learn to deal with me and I am a patient girl, so bring it on." I say, hoping I'm convincing enough for my father.

He smiles at me, shaking his head in disbelief before going back to his serious face.

"I am sorry that your first heartbreak had to be a man you knew to be your father. I promise that whatever happens in this life, as your father, I will never intentionally hurt you. I will never reject you, you will always be my daughter and I will love you unconditionally." Theodore says to me, pulling me in from the side for a hug and I hug him back.

His words sealed a door in my soul that hides the wreckage I try to bury deep within me.

It sucks that a man I called dad would continously hurt me over and over again, making sure to cut deep but I soldier on and I harbor no hate. I will not be vile like him, I refuse to be. I will not grow up to be that angry at life and everyone around me because that makes for a miserable life and I want a fairytale.

"With what you've been through, you deserve one and I hope me being in your life, makes you feel like it is just the beginning." Theo says and I pull away to look at him, curiously.

"How do I block you out? I can't read your thoughts." I say, a little annoyed.

"Hailey your thoughts are loud. It's like a TV playing in the background" He teases and I smack his shoulder.

"Close your eyes and imagine building a big wall around you. Now, make sure to build the highest one, without a gate to enter and then once you're done, open your eyes." He says and I follow his instructions.

Taking my time, carefully placing each brick, one after the other until I feel I've reached the stars. I inspect my own work and once satisfied, I open my eyes.

"Now think of something, anything." He says and I oblige.

Popcorn.

He looks at me, smiling. Theo was actually really handsome, if he smiled more often.

"Hailey, you have to believe you actually built a wall and thank you, I'll smile more often then." He says and my stomach sinks.

"Okay wait let me try again." I say, closing my eyes once more.

Breath in and out, calm yourself Hailey. You can do this.

Building the wall again, I feel Adira's presence. She helps me, building on the one side as I do the other until our walls meet. Sealing us in, Adira nods her head at me and I open my eyes.

I sit up more confidently and look in to my father's eyes.

Popcorn. Caramel popcorn.
