Destined To Be Greatness novel Chapter 5

I stared into his beautiful forest green eyes getting completely lost as he kept our gazes locked. When I looked into his eyes I couldn't help but feel complete, like we were the only two in the room. We continued to stare at each other but then his face turned sour, his eyes turning darker with rage. I winced at the sudden change in the air. It was now full of tension and a mixture of my anticipation.

Cameron stormed over to me. His body was shaking, his fingernails digging into his palms and his jaw clenched. He looked like he was about to murder someone.

We stood only inches apart and I could feel his hot breath fanning across my face. My body shivered on its own accord, this made my sexy mate smirk. My mouth had gone dry from being so nervous. What was he going to do to me? Would he accept me or reject me?

A throat being cleared interrupted my internal battle. I looked up and saw 'the' smirk. This was not a good sign and I had seen it many times before. So had the whole school. This smirk was Cameron's most famous weapon. When you saw it, you knew you were in for it.

I broke eye contact and glanced around me. What I saw made me jump and my eyes widened. What looked like the whole student body were staring at Cameron and I. They all had puzzled faces, no doubt wondering what was going on.

I faced Cameron again. He still had rage burning in his eyes. Why was he looking at me like that? I thought to myself. I only knew a little about mates and I was positive that he should not be looking at me like that.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" I asked quietly.

"You disgust me." He replied blunt to the point. I internally winced as I heard my heart start to break.

"But your mate," gasps and murmurs erupted from the crowd surrounding us.

"Listen to my words carefully loser. We are not mates. There is no way that the moon goddess would pair me the future alpha with a none shifter like you. I mean look at you." I glanced down at myself. "You're disgusting, ugly, weak. I can't run a pack with someone who can't shift. If I was your mate I'd feel sorry for him. And I would say the words I reject you Jessica Brown."

I looked up at the sky and noticed that the sun had started to set, the sky was a deep blue with little white lights glistening and the night air sent a chill down my body. I knew I should have started to head back home, if I could even call it that, but I didn't feel like it so I continued deeper into the forest.

My feet began to ache and my throat was burning from thirst. I surveyed my surroundings and my eyes found a small lake surrounded by colourful flowers and trees with pink blossoms. This place was breath taking. I walked closer to the lake, my eyes looking around in awe. I sat down near the edge of the lake and scooped up some water and brought it to my lips. I drank greedily and immediately my throat felt better. I lied down and stared up at the stars wishing I could feel this calm and at ease every minute of every day. This small area made me forget about my troubles, even him.

I was lost in thought, my eyes glazed over and dreaming about what my life would have been like if I did shift. Would have Cameron the future alpha of the pack accept me as his mate? Would my family love me?

I was brought out of my days dreams by a snap of a stick. I shoot up and looked around. I couldn't see anything it was too dark. Damn! Why couldn't I have werewolf sight! There was another snap that came from behind me, making me spin round. As soon as I steadied myself. I came face to face with a women with flaming, bright red hair and green eyes.
