THE CHOSEN LOVE

XII.

ENDER'S P.O.V.
"Mia, are you sure there is nothing you can do about this situation?"

It's been a week now since I have been told to break up with Emily, but I can't just find enough courage to break her heart

"If I could, trust me, i would, but for now, there is nothing I can do" Mia said leaning on the wall

"But your father is a member of the council, can't he do anything?" Josh asked

"My father said he tried his best but they all insisted on the two of you breaking up" She replied

"He said it would be a risk to the two of you if you don't reject each other because if one of you gets hurt, the other one gets hurt also... It is a mate thing"She continued

"Isn't there any other alternative?" Xander asked

"I'm afraid not" She said, causing me to sigh

"It is either one of you drop or the two of you reject each other" She said looking sad

Mia and I have been friends for a long time now and her father happens to be a member of the council

Her cousin is a chosen one which makes me happy because I don't get to fight her, but fighting my mate is the worst punishment you can ever give me

I tried ignoring Emily throughout the whole week just for both our safety, but I know I hurt her by doing so.. Even though it is for the best

EMILY'S P.O.V
It's been a week since Ender last came to my house and I think he has been avoiding me

Did i do anything wrong?

Prom night is getting close and Ender is my date, but right now, i don't care about prom night, all i can think about is why Ender has been avoiding me

"Are you okay?" Summer asked bouncing herself on top of my bed

James has managed to change Summer and miraculously she passed through all the stages with ease

She has been begging James to also change her family but James told her he would think about it... I know he wouldn't do it... It is too dangerous

Summer has not been going to school because as a newborn vampire, she can't control her urge for blood

We just told the school that she is sick and i managed to beg Ender to hypnotise both the school and her family to believe that Summer is sick and that she would be staying over at our place till she recovers

But, since then, Ender and I have not done much talking

Even before then, i had to ambush him to tell him to hypnotise the school for me

"Am i a bad mate?" I asked getting closer to Summer on the bed

"What? No you're not, infact, you are a great friend and a good mate" She said looking at me like she was trying to read me

"Thanks Sum" I said looking at my hands on my folded legs

"What made you ask that?" She asked calmly and i can hear the concern in her voice

"I don't know why, but Ender has been avoiding me all week" I said finally looking at her

"Did you do anything to offend him? You know how he can be... How do i put this?... Hot tempered... Sometimes... Even though he does not show it" She said

"No,at least none that i can remember"i said before a knock came on the door

"Come in" I shouted before the door gently burst open

Standing there outside my door was... Ender?

When i looked at his eyes i could see guilt with a hint of sadness which kind of made me sad even though i should be angry... In fact furious right now

"What's up?" He said closing the door and walking towards us

"Fine"I said looking down and monitoring for Ender to sit on the bed

"Do you mind excusing us?" Ender asked Summer who immediately stood up and exited the room

"Look, I'm sorry for the way i acted towards you this week" Ended said making me to raise my head and look into his eyes

"Did i maybe offend you in any way?" I asked raising my eyebrows... He responded back by frowning

"No, you didn't" He said staying my hands into his

"Then why have you been avoiding me?"i asked slightly shouting

I didn't realize i was crying until Ender Raised his hand to my face and using his thumb.. He wiped my tears away

"I'm very sorry" He whispered to me causing more tears to roll down my eyes

"But i just had to for both our sake"He finally said which made me frown

"I don't get"i said still frowning

ENDER'S P.O.V.
I can't bear seeing Emily cry like this

I feel guilty for causing her pain

I wish i dont have to do what I'm about to do right now

But, i just hope she would understand and forgive me

Seeing her cry is breaking my heart and i know i will break more by the time i tell her my reasons for coming is to reject her as my mate

I know it is something that werewolves do, but we vampires also do it, especially when we can't be with our mate

"Emily, whatever happens from now, please forgive me... But, i have to if we both want to remain chosen ones" I said still stroking her cheeks and i know she knows what i mean

"The council called you too huh?" She asked which made me to furrow my eyebrows

"The council came here?" I asked her and she just nodded

"They told me to reject you but i told them I can't" she answered still crying

"Why?" I asked

"Because i love you Ender" She yelled causing more tears to roll from her eyes

Now, i feel stupid.. She doesn't want to reject me because she loves me

The guilt kept raising till i felt myself all choked up

"I love you too, but it is for the best"I managed to say, dropping my hands on the bed

"I... Ender Edwards... Hereby-" I said pausing at each statement

I couldn't get the words out

But i know i have to do this

I don't want history to repeat itself again

"Please don't Ender, please" She said whispering the last part as more tears came

"I'm sorry, i really am" I said looking her in the eyes

"I Ender Edwards, hereby reject you... Emily Vanderwoods"
