You are Mine,Only Mine novel Chapter 73

"So, then, I'll come with you," he said, standing up and looking at the moon. "I'll go with you and we could live in South Dakota for as long as you need and come back."

"Wes, I don't want you to come with me," I said quietly, but I know he heard me. He snapped his face at me and I could tell he was hurting in the inside. He refused to show it as his eyes grew an ice cold blue.

"What do you mean you don't want me to come with you? I'm your mate."

"Wes, you're an alpha. You can't just walk away from your pack. They need you. You can't - "

"So what? Eli can step up and be alpha," Weston tried to reason with me. "Just until we come back."

I dropped my smile and stood in front him, looking at him seriously. "You can't come with me."

"You're my mate," Weston said angrily, his voice rising just a bit. "I don't care if I my position. I don't care if I'm not in a pack when I go there. I don't care if I'm surrounded my Healers. I just want you. You're my mate."

I felt my heart breaking at my next words, knowing it was going to break his heart as well. However, I couldn't be selfish with him. I mean, I could let him follow me. I could let him drop his alpha duty just for my benefit. Because I loved him and the pack, leaving him here was the best thing to do. Just by the way he was standing, I knew he wasn't going to stand down until I agreed for him to come with me. So, I did what I had to do.

WESTON'S POV -

"Weston, this can't work between us," Danny said, a single tear rolled off her cheek.

Her words hit me like a wave, almost making me tumble to the ground. She looked serious, her green eyes calculating my every move. Every word that was said felt like a blow to my stomach. My heart felt like she was squeezing it herself. I clenched my fists, trying to ignore the pain that was growing inside me - trying to ignore my wolf's cry. My vision blurred as tears built up in my eyes.

"Weston," she said, softly, trying to gain my attention.
