CHAPTER 3: Jamie

"I believe I have made it clear that I am answerable to no one"

The witch commented. Jamie scoffed

"Then why did you come"

"I owe your father a lot"

She said as she made herself comfortable on the couch by the other end of his office.

Jamie adjusted himself on his chair as he asked

"Why is it a mist this time"

The witch smiled

" I'm no fortune teller...but I did tell you there was no cure until you begged the moon goddess for another mate"

Jamie gulped down because he knew where this was going

" what are you trying to say"

She smirked.

"What I am saying is that the tragic fate you were cursed with was reborn the moment the moon goddess reincarnated your mate"

He closed his eyes. Fuck.

"Why does it have to be this way"

She sighed

"If only your father kept his anger issues to himself none of this would have happened"

He frowned at the statement. What did she mean his father

"He killed my younger sister's twin because she unintentionally harmed your pregnant mother, by that time with your sister. So she cursed him, unfortunately it was on impulse and so she cursed the Alpha's mate forgetting she was already alive....for some reason she still lived against the curse and died a natural death, so it was rewritten in your fate. In exchange for your sister's life he choose to be cursed"

Jamie used his palms to brush through his hair

"Why her? Can't you do anything about it"

She made the tsk sound as she shook her head

"She's the only one that can revise the curse she pronounced but she's dead now not knowing that her vengeful heart cursed the world in the process"

She made her way to the door as Jamie tried to process the information

"Don't push her too long, she's here by the way"

She said as she walked out of the door and immediately the Gamma mind-linked him

"A young girl was caught trespassing by our boarder. She looks like a rogue but doesn't smell like one...you might want to handle this one yourself...she looks very familiar"

The witch was right. The moon goddess has brought her to him knowing he would avoid her. He signed. Fuck! Fuck!! FUCK!!!

"Take her to the dungeon I'll be there"

He said as her angryly walked out of his office

"Oh...I was just coming to your office. Where are you going"

"Lyla not now I'm busy"

She frowned as he brushed past her. That's weird she said in her head. Jamie is never too busy for her.

He went straight to the dungeon and saw her. The exact copy of Diane. His heart racing with each step he took to her cage.

This can't be happening.

He stood for sometime just staring at her remembering everything the witch said as Amaru in turned stared at him expectantly.

Why you? He questioned over and over again as he gazed down at her. Not you? He continued as he started fuming inside while his wolf cried to feel her in his arms again.

"Open the cage"

I have to do one thing but first let me feel a bit of her. He walked to her front and squatted to her eye lever

'Diane'

She's not Diane. Jamie said to his wolf.

'No matter how much you deny it... she's our mate and the goddess brought her back to us'

Jamie grazed her cheek as he watched her shudder in his touch. She feels the same. My sweet Diane. My love why you

He said in denial. 'Fuck' he whispered to himself. He then decided to take in her features. Her oceanic blue eyes and blonde her looking directly into his soul question his actions.

He could see the heart break he was causing but he needed to do this to protect her and detach himself from any emotional connection.

He stood up. Axel moved closer

"Isn't that Luna Diane"

"Her reincarnation...Amaru"

"Damn...what are you going to do"

As painful as it hurt he said

"Avoid her.....I can't let her fate replay before my eyes"

Axel took it as a cue don't to say anything. Jamie turned to one of the guards

"Lock her up and make sure she eats well"

She scoffed and his attention fell on her

"What's exactly is your point"

She asked as she tried to hide the hurt in her eyes....the hurt Jamie felt but tried to ignore it.

"Excuse me"

"Why keep me here, feed me well but keep me locked up"

She asked. He pressed his lips in a thin line a defense mechanism in other not to spill everything and how much he wanted to protect her from this cruel fate she was dragged into all in the name of his selfishness for a mate.

And her voice....it was driving him crazy as memories were flooding in. So he just left. Like the coward that he is, he left her there all by herself.
