Why My Mate Cries
Chapter 93

REID’S POV

As days passed, the more my rage grew harsher. I clenched my jaw repeatedly while looking at Aliyah and Reid from afar, under a tree near the forest. They were talking again and I swear to the Moon Goddess, I was so near exploding in so much anger and jealousy.

I had no idea why he was still here, in the pack I was leading, completely ignoring my murderous gazes on him.

Indeed, I was beyond bothered seeing them together. If it was a normal occasion, I could probably stomach my mate talking continuously to another wolf. But not this time, not when there was a rift between us. Definitely not when she was obviously mad at me for reasons I knew was not right! She kept on believing that I already moved on when f**k it! I was not!

I knew being the Alpha of a pack like this was hard. I had responsibilities and I needed to act right, not driven by emotions at all. Yet I also knew she was in so much pain to understand any of that.

I could understand her but I would always fail to comprehend why she needed Jaxon, that Gamma, on her side instead of me.

“Damn it,” I growled under my breath while glaring in their direction.

It was not even helping that Aliyah kept on ignoring me and she was giving all her attention to that f*****g mutt! As if she did not care about my existence at all, as if I was not her goddamn mate!

It irritated me so much to the point that I kicked the wooden chair on my right and instead of hurting myself and fuelling my anger, I went away from them.

Inside the nearby pub, it was already afternoon, the sky was already slowly darkening, and I was drinking heavily with Lucas and Klaus. And to my dismay, the two brought Jaxon with them. The wolf I was wishing to hurt so much.

Ah, he must be aiming for his death by showing up before me like this.

/”I told you, we should hurt him, Reid. I don’t like seeing him around our mate.”/

I g*****d while frowning. “Calm the f**k down. You know Aliyah won’t like that.” I told that to my wolf but if I would be honest, I was also convincing myself to calm down and to keep my claws to myself.

“What the heck do you need to my Luna?” I spat madly while scowling at Jaxon who was startled by my angered tone.

But then, as arrogant as he always had been, he tilted his neck and stared back at me. It boiled my b***d in fury.

“It’s Aliyah’s request to keep me here. She told me that I should stay, that I should live here, in your pack from now on,” he said and shrugged his shoulders. “I’m staying here.”

That made me stand up, growling painfully because of the rage I could no longer contain. I could feel my eyes gleaming and my teeth gritting as my eyes darkened while glaring at the braggart of a wolf.

How dare he keep that tone before the Alpha of this pack! He, a mere Gamma, had no damn right to act like that in front of me!

I grabbed his collar forcefully, creating a ruckus in the pub.

“You f*****g mutt!”

He glared equally and clenched his jaw. It made me lose control even more. I wanted to let my wolf out and let bloodshed around the place.

I heard Klaus and Lucas trying to calm me down but I was seeing red to even care about anything.

I was about to punch him when suddenly, I felt someone push me and after seeing that it was Aliyah, I let my body be shoved away.

Almost all my anger dissipated just by the sight of her, But I could still feel the urge to punch him directly to his face, if not only for my mate.

She was with her friends, Liana and Alice who seemed shocked by the situation they saw earlier.

“Seriously, Reid! What did Jaxon do to you to act like you wanted to kill him any moment? Do you think I didn’t notice how murderous you are glaring at him for days?!”

That made me chuckle sarcastically. I could not believe I would feel as pathetic as this. Holy mother of Moon Goddess, she chose his side again!

She was standing there, looking at him, checking if there was any wound that I inflicted. If I knew it would go down to this, I would have hurt him because after all, she would be angry no matter what!

“Siding with him, huh? What, you no longer care for your mate? Is that it, Aliyah?”

I saw how the pain went through her eyes when I said those spiteful words. Suddenly, I regretted what I said. I clenched my jaw and closed my eyes tightly. I knew she was hurting and yet I always f****d up like this.

“He doesn’t deserve your anger, Reid. What the hell is happening to you?”

Ah. And she was not even aware of how insane she was making me.

“You happened!” I growled in with so much bitterness.

“What the hell did I do?!”

Again, I chuckled sarcastically. “You are not even aware? You are ignoring me, Aliyah! No matter how much I try to get near you, you are always brushing me away and choosing this fucktard’s company instead of your mate, instead of me!”

Hearing that, instead of consoling me, she shook her head, disappointed, and walked away. And just like how it was always been for days already, she would end up not hearing and understanding where I was coming from.

It was so unbearable witnessing how we ended up. As if we were back to square one again. It was miserable that I want to lose some steam.

Yet instead of doing so, I went after her. We need to talk.
