Chapter 14

Rylee's POV.

"Rylee!" Nash chased after me as we walked down the elite road. Some expensive cars drove past us, and when a black sedan was arriving and making its entry into the mighty black gate, I caught the plate name of the car—Alpha Malakai.

"Mmm," I looked at the car, and surprisingly, Alpha Malakai was looking at me and Elizabeth too. As Nash trailed behind us, wanting me to speak to him.

"Rylee!" Nash called me back as he didn't even take notice of his uncle's car.

Alpha Malakai's car drove off, and I sighed with relief, not understanding why I was nervous seeing him.

"What is it, Nash? What do you want from me again?" I turned to face Nash and asked him, as I was pissed off by his public display of love.

"Rylee, tell me what happened?" Nash demanded, and I smiled and told him, "I sold you off. Since you can discard our five years of relationship, I told Beta James and his wife that I need compensation for all the years that I wasted with you."

"You did what?" Nash asked with a loud voice, and his eyes widened.

"Why will you do that?" He demanded, and I looked at his baffled face with disbelief.

"Why would I ask for compensation? Why did you propose to Bella Harvey? Why didn't you reject her when you found out that she was your mate?" I asked Nash, and he lost words to refute.

"I am sure that you might have had sex with her," I said, and Nash's face dropped.

"I am sorry, Rylee. The mating bond was so strong."

"Don't lie to me, Nash. Is Bella really your fated mate, or did you just cheat on her with me? How can you just dump our five years of friendship and propose to her without considering my feelings? Or did you immediately propose to her because she is rich, forgetting that she is the daughter of your mother's ex-mate?"

Nash shut his eyes and said, "She is my mate, Rylee. I wanted to find the time to tell you, but I didn't know how. Bella just turned 18 two days ago, and I tried to ignore the bond between us. But it's so strong. I felt weak, and I needed to mark her."

Nash said, as he looked so guilty.

"So you confirmed to me that you marked her. Mmm," I raised my hand to my neck and had a flash of memory that the man who I had mated with last night marked me.

"Ah! Why can't I remember? My head!" I gasped, clutching my head, and Elizabeth and Nash rushed to hold me.

"Are you alright, Rylee?" Nash asked me with a soft voice, but I caressed the sore spot on my neck and asked him, "Is there any mark on my neck?"

Nash and Elizabeth immediately looked at my neck and gasped, "What?! Rylee? Who marked you?"

Nash looked like he was ready to kill someone, and I pushed myself away from his hold and steadied my feet on the ground.

"Stay away from me, Nash. I had no idea who the man was. But I cannot remember anything from last night. Is it possible that the man is a wizard? How did I lose my memory of what he looked like?" I asked Elizabeth as heat flushed to my neck, but as the memory of the marking came flooding into my mind.

It was the moment when the man climaxed in me. And at the same time, he brought his fangs and bit me. He drank my blood and licked that sore spot. But my hands flew protectively to my tummy.

"Oh no, Elizabeth! I am doomed. I remember the man mated with me, and he climaxed in me. Is it up to 24 hours? I need to rush to the pharmacy to get the morning-after pills. Oh no!" I cried, and Elizabeth offered to shift and get the pills for me.

"Let me shift and get it. As I have some pills at home, and I don't know when we will find a taxi from this place to take us home," As Elizabeth offered to shift, Beta Fabian arrives with a black shiny car and parked it beside us.

He wound down his car window and looked at me in particular.

I did not like Beta Fabian, and that was because his sister had snatched my boyfriend.

"Good afternoon, Beta. What do you want here?" Nash asked, while Elizabeth and I mumbled out greetings.

"Get into the car, Rylee. I am here to offer you a ride to your house. I heard what happened between you and my sister," Fabian said, as he looked at me angrily.

Before I could say something, Nash rushed to the car and grasped Fabian by his shirt, "Are you the one who mated with Rylee? Did you do it to get back at me for mating with your sister?"

Fabian was a Beta, and though he was a warrior, while Nash has alpha blood. Even when Nash wasn't the main alpha of our pack, he was strong and healed faster.

"Nash, get your hands off my shirt. If I get out of this car, I will send you to the dungeon for this disrespect," Fabian growled as Nash refused to let go of him.

"Fụck you, Fabian!" Nash punched Fabian in the face, and we heard the sound of bones cracking.

Nash winced as his fingers hurt from the punch, while Fabian angrily got out of the car to attack Nash.

"Please, let him go. I am sorry. He was just angry because of me," I begged, as I came in between Beta Fabian and Nash.

Though Nash was an alpha by birth, he wasn't as strong as Beta Fabian, who was a warrior.

The way Nash's finger cracked, I am sure he was in pain, as he hadn't expected Beta Fabian's face to be made of steel and not soft.

Fabian looked at me with his chilling gaze as he didn't bother to attack Nash. He exhaled heavily and said, "Is she coming with you?"

"No, she is going to a pharmacy to get pills. I was thinking, were you the man with me last night in the Pack's hotel, Room 607?"

Beta Fabian's gaze darkened, and that made me tremble as I wished he wasn't the man.

"What makes you think that I will want to mate with a lowly Omega like you? Do you want to have me banished?" Beta Fabian asked, as he looked at me angrily.

"But..." My lips trembled, and he silenced me, "Don't go on spitting nonsense about me. I have a mate, and I cannot be smitten by you or mated with you. Get into the car and don't ask me any more questions."

Beta Fabian didn't give me any room to question him again, as he walked back to his car and pulled the back passenger's seat door for Elizabeth and me.

"Let's go with him, Rylee. I have some medicine at home that you can take," Elizabeth mumbled, and I sighed and looked away from Fabian's stone-cold face.

"Fine," I matched and entered the back of the car with Elizabeth, and Nash looked at me with a dejected look on his face.

"Rylee, I will come to see you to sort things out," Nash said, but I didn't bother to look at his face as his phone rang out. While Beta Fabian shut the car door and got into the driver's seat. He started the car and drove off.
