Rejection

"This pack doesn't need a weak Luna. Can't you see you are not strong enough to be Luna? You're not just what the pack needs right now. it would do you so much good if you would let me have Ralph, and if you don't do as I say… you wouldn't believe whose path you're about to cross." She said and was about to leave when I stood up and got close to her.

"You're my twin I get it, but what if Jake was still alive? Would you be chasing Ralph this much?... I'm afraid I'll never let you have Ralph." 'Did I just say that? Wow, this is the first time I'll ever talk back to my twin, though I didn't mean any of those words I said… I just wanna put my happiness first.'

'I realized being hard on her isn't good enough, I know how to get to you, my dear little twin.' Alex thought 

       "And my child?" 

She asked, touching her stomach. 'My heart broke. I realized if I go with Ralph my nephew or niece wouldn't experience the love or care of a father, I and Alex went through that, and I promise it's hell' 

    I sighed

"That's left for the Alpha to decide," I said and left Alex in the room in frustration and confusion. At this point, I didn't know where to go. 

*********

I was in my room when I heard both Ralph's and Miles' voices. I quickly got up from my bed to see him through my door. 

"Where's your twin? Where is Serena?" 

Ralph asked. 

He has the sweetest voice I have ever heard. It's like music to my ears. He sounded cold. I had no idea why he was looking for me. But I have a feeling that something was definitely wrong, and I was in trouble. 

"Serena? My sister asked. She is in her room. why?" 

I could hear the excitement in her voice. I decided to go downstairs and suddenly I was hit by the most amazing smell. My wolf screamed in my head.

"Our mate is here, go to him." Sea, my wolf said and I quickly went downstairs.

Everything made sense when I looked into his eyes. He is now the center of my world. I felt this uncontrollable need to touch and be in his arms.

*******

Ralphs pov

Rejecting her was the only option, but when I saw her standing right in front of me I didn't know how to do it. I just couldn't say the words.

I saw how excited she was when she looked at my face. I know she wants to come to me but keeps stopping herself

 I had always thought she was so beautiful and hot. There's just this thing about her that differentiates her from Alex. I just couldn't tell who was prettier. Her or her twin? I could remember the night I spent with Alex, I thought she was the one.

 But now that she's my mate, She's even more beautiful than ever before. She smelled like berries and watermelon. Those lovely blue eyes were staring deep into my eyes. Her lips were perfect and boy that curvy figure was made for me. She looks so pure and innocent. I just wanted her all to myself. 

Alex made a sound through her mouth bringing me back to reality. I nodded slowly. I took a deep breath to calm my nerves, I shouldn't get distracted by this bond. 'This is it' I shut Black, my wolf off, so he's not aware of what I am about to do. He's in love with his mate and is happy whenever we smell her. I would sort him out later. I need to do this. Not for myself but for the sake of my pack and my unborn child.

"Don't do this," Miles muttered. shaking his head in disapproval. 

"Go ahead, don't forget who's Carrying your heir," Alex said, putting my hand on her belly while staring deep into my eyes. My attention diverted as I could see Serena's expression when she heard what Alex had just said.

"Y…you are the father of her unborn child?" Serena asked, I removed my hands from Alex's belly and moved closer to Serena. 

"You know the reason I'm doing this right?" 

"Yeah… sure I do." She answered.

I sighed and ran my hands through my hair. Every bit of me was screaming at me not to push through with this. Black clawed his way to the front of my mind to see his mate.

 He kept growling and whining, I want her but I have to do this.

I took a deep breath and then proceeded with my words.

"I, Ralph Maverick, Alpha of the Crystal Moon pack, reject you, Serena Williams of the Crystal Moon packs."

I could feel my heart break into a thousand pieces. I could feel my wolf's pain as he was howling inside of me.

I could see the tears and pain in her face but she refused to show it. I had expected her to fall to her knees and claw at her chest but she didn't, she stood with her head up high, She closed her wonderful eyes and took a deep breath. 

"I, Serena Williams, member of Crystal Moon pack, accept your rejection."

Hearing this sent a shiver down my spine. I felt so much pain, it was boldly written on my face. Then Alex came closer to me and hugged me.

The bond was still there, I still felt the same way for her, and I still wanted her to be mine. Though I just gave way for me to mate with another she-wolf. 

For a moment I didn't realize Serena had left until I turned, She was gone. and then

Miles was running after her. 

I froze and my heart started beating nervously and painfully. She probably got it all wrong when Alex hugged me. 'fuck' what if something happens to her? I wouldn't be able to live with myself. I can't live without her. 

Alex tried to stop me but I just ignored her and ran after my mate.
