Chapter 11

Bellatrix

Bellatrix stood outside the Eiffel tower, watching the tourists walk by. She had been here for a while, observing couples. She felt a mixture of guilt and anger in her heart, and some other emotions that she found hard to understand.

Guilt, because she had left Eric alone when he was injured. Anger, because he had taken the liberty of spying on Antoine. She felt furious that he felt that he owned her enough that he could just interfere in her life choices like that.

What confused her even more was her wolf. It prowled within her body restlessly, making her even more anxious. She didn’t understand the way her wolf had reacted when Eric was being attacked. It didn’t make any sense. The way her wolf had howled in pain, it was as if a part of her had been hurt.

She sighed, observing another couple who were walking arm in arm. They looked so much in love; their eyes glimmered with happiness. She watched as the girl’s face lit up when she looked at her man. This is what Bellatrix had wanted. To fall in love madly, to feel her heart swell with happiness.

It’s why she had refused the mating ritual, despite the council’s protest. The elders had been furious. Not only was she traveling around the world and living with humans; she had also refused to have her mate found for her. She had never liked the idea of her mate being picked for her. She wanted to meet people, fall in love and choose who she wanted to be with.

The elders had made her meet the wolf couples, trying to prove to her the ritual works. Bellatrix knew it worked. The moon spirit herself chose the person as your mate. She had seen successful relations with her own eyes. Yet, she couldn’t adapt to the idea of having anyone chosen for her. She hoped that whoever the moon spirit had chosen for her would meet her naturally, and they would fall in love naturally. Without some ritual dictating it.

Bellatrix watched as the happy couple kissed, looking in each other’s eyes. A puddle came, and the man picked up the girl so she wouldn’t get her feet dirty. Bellatrix had a sudden flash back when it had rained heavily a few months ago. There were puddles everywhere, and Eric had held her in his arms so she wouldn’t get her new sneakers dirty.

Bellatrix shook her head, shaking the memory off. She looked away and noticed another couple. The man was proposing to his girl on one knee, and people around them were cheering. Bellatrix closed her eyes, imagining Antoine proposing to her one day. Her wolf stirred restlessly at the image, and Bellatrix felt a wave of anxiety.

Why did the idea scare her? The idea of being Antoine’s bride. She was in love with him. He was the perfect man, and he made her so happy. Yet, her heart twisted at the thought of being with him. She was slowly starting to realise something that she hadn’t realised before.
