Chapter 1: Wedding Day

At Winston and Eve's Den

Kate's POV

"Today I'm getting married, I don't get it?" I said thoughtfully.

"Get what?" Lilly asked while brushing my tail with a pinecone.

"This is supposed to be the happiest day of my life, you know the BIG DAY! Yet I cant help but feel this empty hole inside of me as if something were missing" I told her with a frown on my face.

"What can you possibly be missing? You have the most perfect man to be your mate, he's strong and handsome and smart. And I can't even finish listing all of his good qualities. Your life is perfect" Lilly sighed.

"Hey" I heard a male voice say.

"Could it be? Could it really be Humphrey?" I thought to myself.

I turned around to see him there and jumped with joy at the sight of him "Humphrey!" I yelled.

"I'll give you two some alone time" Lilly said while leaving.

"Here's a little something for your big day" he said, he then pulled a flower from his fur and put it behind my ear and I slightly blushed.

"Aw, thank you!" I said as I hugged him.

While I hugged I felt as if all my worries were gone, like it was just the two of us in this world. I felt as if nothing else mattered, uniting the pack or marrying Garth. I quickly snapped out of it and pulled away from the hug.

Humphrey's POV

I almost melted as Kate hugged me, I just really wish I had the guts to tell what I really felt.

Instead I told her, "So I've been planning to do some traveling, you know see where the train takes me!" while putting out a fake smile to conceal my true feelings.

Kate looked at me confused and asked, " Well, when are you leaving?"

"Today" I said painfully.

"Your not gonna be here for my wedding?!" Kate asked with a tear beginning to appear.

"No, I'm sorry its kind of a lone wolf thing" I explained

"What? I know Humphrey the fun-loving omega, not Humphrey the lone wolf" she said painfully.

"I guess I'll be Humphrey the fun-loving lone wolf" I said.

"I don't doubt that" Kate said as a tear fell down her cheek.

"Well I better go before I miss the train" I said as I turned around and left.

At the Howling Rock where the wedding was being held

Humphrey's POV

I was watching from above as Kate and Garth exchanged scents and nibbled each others ears, but I couldn't possibly watch them rub noses, so I ran with all my force not thinking about anything towards the train.

Kate's POV

I was about to rub noses with Garth but at that moment all these memories and thoughts flooded into my head.

"I don't love Garth! What am I doing? I don't know this wolf. Do I love Humphrey? Oh my God, I love Humphrey! Is this worth it? Throwing my life away and one shot at true love for the good of the packs? Am I really going to do this? No, I'm not!" I thought to myself then I ran away to stop my only true love from leaving.

"Kate what are you doing?" Garth yelled along with my dad and Tony. I heard tons of gasps coming from the crowd but that didn't stop me.

Humphrey's POV

I finally made it to the train and was waiting for Marcel and Patty's directions when heard a rustle in the bushes and turned around to see Kate leap out.

"Please don't go, please forgive me, I love you!" she pleaded.

Those words "I love you" hit me like a thousand knives being jabbed into my heart.

"You don't love me, you love the idea of me, of having someone be there for you and love you with every fiber of their body, the idea of having someone who would do anything and everything for you" I said while containing my emotions " I've made up my mind, I'm leaving. Its not like it matters anyways now that Garth is your mate."

Kate's POV

Oh my gosh how could I be so stupid he doesn't know yet, I didn't marry Garth!

"No Humphrey I didn't ma-" I was interrupted when I got hit in the head with a round ball and fell unconscious.

Humphrey's POV

"Oh my God" I shouted while Marcel and Patty flew down.

"Oops bad calculations" Marcel said with a sigh.

"What if she was hit in the temple?! She can die!" I yelled while holding in tears and picking up Kate's head.

"We will make sure she's okay, just go before you miss the train" Patty told me.

"Okay" I said with a sigh, and then jumped in the passing train and saw Kate getting farther and farther away.

In that moment I let all my emotions flood out of me like a tsunami and eventually cried my self to sleep with thought of Kate.
