Mr. Alpha, I Love You No More

''No…." Jasmine screamed as she woke up with a start, her clothes were soaked with her sweat, her breathing was uneven, and she had tears rolling down her cheeks.

Every night isn't different from this particular night, and the dreams are not different from the same dream that woke her up; her losing her babies.

She clutched her heart as she recalled just how many times she's had a miscarriage because of the monster she was with; her mate.

Her life has never been easy. She's an orphan as she had lost her parents to the cruel hands of death at an early age, and she has no relatives…she has no one in this world except for herself.

When she had met her mate Stephen who was also the alpha of their pack, she had thought that her life would change for the better; that she would finally have someone to lean on, someone to rely on, and someone who's going to be there for her, but how wrong she was to have thought her life would suddenly become better because she found her mate. Rather than her life becoming better, things only got worse, so bad that it had her considering the thought of just ending it all by committing suicide at some point.

He turned her into a slave and would have his way with her whenever he deemed it fit. Whenever she got pregnant, he would beat her up until she lost the baby. She had no idea why he was this ruthless. She had no idea what she had done to him that made him hate her this much.

Shouldn't mates love each other? Shouldn't they care for each other and always be there for the other when they're needed? 

The more she thought about how messed up her life is, the more the pain she felt in her heart became so intense; it was literally eating her up.

While she was still on her bed, weeping bitterly, the door to her bedroom was kicked open to reveal an angry looking Stephan. When Jasmine saw him standing at the doorway, her pain was instantly replaced with fear because she knows that when he has that look on his face, it doesn't always mean well for her.

"S... Stephan.” She stuttered, her whole body trembling.

“Why hasn't my food been served yet!?” Stephan asked when he walked into her room.

Jasmine instantly looked at the wall clock, then she looked at Stephan again. “B…but it's just 4am.” She replied. 

Had she known what would happen after that, she never would have said anything because the moment those words left her mouth, Stephan angrily went to her and slapped her hard before roughly pulling her out of bed and shoving her hard to the floor.

“You seem to be forgetting your manners, girl. Never talk back to me!” He thundered. “You had better get to work, or you'll be getting more than just a slap from me.” He threatened furiously.

Just as he was about to leave, Jasmine spoke up. "What have I ever done to you, Stephan?'' She demanded with tears streaming down her cheeks. “Why do you hate me so much? Why do you treat me this badly, even though I've always done everything to please you; to make you love me? What have I ever done to you?” 

“You want to know what you've done, Jasmine?” Stephan asked. “Your existence alone annoys me.” He spat. “The fact that I had to get mated to you…an omega, it makes my blood boil with so much rage. I hate you for being who you are. You disgust me. You're not befitting of the status you have right now. Not only that, but you do not deserve to be called my mate, so deal with it because this is your punishment for existing!” He spat bitterly.

Stephan roughly dragged her up from where she was on the floor, then he pushed her out of her room. "Now get to work, omega.'' He ordered before leaving.

The words Stephan said to her cut so deep into her heart, tripling the pain she felt. “Is it my fault that I was born, Stephen?” She questioned, staring at the direction he went. “I never chose to be born, nor did I pick my fate of being an omega. It was never my fault….”

“I didn't ask for any of this.” She muttered.

Jasmine stood outside for a moment; crying. When she felt she was a bit better, she wiped off her tears and went to the kitchen to make breakfast for Stephan.

While cooking, Stephan mind linked her to serve him in his bedroom, so when she was done cooking, she served his food and took it to him.

Sadly, Jasmine had no idea what was waiting for her.

When she arrived at Stephan's room, she was about to place a knock on the door when she heard some sounds coming from his room, and her heart raced as she recognized those sounds.

Jasmine's hand trembled as she slowly opened the door and was faced with a shocking reality; Stephan making out with his mistress. The food fell from her hand and scattered on the floor, alerting both Stephan and his mistress.

When Stephan saw what had happened, his eyes darkened with rage. He angrily walked towards her and slapped her once more. “Are you stupid? What have you done? Look at the mess you've made!” He fumed.

Jasmine's hand was on her cheek, where he had slapped her. It hurts so bad, but it was nothing compared to what she's just seen.

Stephan then began insulting her and calling her all sorts of names while his mistress laughed so hard at Jasmine's predicament.

As Jasmine stood still receiving all the insults Stephan was showering on her, she felt so many emotions at once; pain, anger, betrayal, but this time, her anger was the greater emotion. She tried to stay silent; to keep her anger in check and receive all insults like she's always done, but not this time… she's had enough!

For the very first time since she got mated to Stephan, Jasmine stood up to him.

“Why don't you just reject me then!” She yelled in rage, shocking not just Stephan but also his mistress.

Stephan was so shocked by her sudden outburst that at first he didn't know what to do.

“Why don't you just reject me and set me free instead of making me go through all this pain.” Jasmine repeated in tears. “You keep saying you're tired of me and that you hate the fact that you and I are mates. Well, if you hate me so much then please reject me, Stephan. I can't do this anymore.” She cried bitterly. “I just can't do this anymore. You've caused me unimaginable pain, and I've never, for once, wronged you in any way. I do my best to please you, Stephan. I've never, for once, complained about how bad you treat me because I keep hoping that a day will come when your feelings for me will change; when you'll love me.” She whispered the last part, but Stephan clearly heard her.

“But you've made it clear to me that your feelings for me will never change, you'll forever continue to hate me and that will never change!” She said with gritted teeth. “You can do us both the favor of rejecting me, and I'll gladly accept your rejection because I'm done with you, Stephan! I've had enough of you treating me worse than an animal. I can't take any of this anymore, so please end my suffering by rejecting me and letting me go.” She pleaded in tears.

“Reject you?” Stephan growled, he immediately grabbed her neck, choking her.

Jasmine's eyes widened in shock, she began tapping his hand for him to let her go because she was struggling to breathe, but Stephan couldn't care less even though she died right now.

“Free you?” He chuckled darkly. “Now why would I want to do that, Jasmine? Why would I want to let go of my favorite play thing? That's never going to happen!” He spat as he roughly let her go.

“There's no way on earth that you'll ever escape me, Jasmine. I intend to keep you as my slave for a very long time.” He laughed. “And since you mentioned it... I do think it's a good thing to reject you, after all, why should I bother still having you as my mate.” He shrugged. 

“I will give you what you want, Jasmine. I will reject you but never free you.”

Jasmine slowly shook her head, her eyes holding so much pain.

And at that moment, Stephan rejected her, and then forced her to accept his rejection.

When the mate bond was broken, the one who felt the most pain was Jasmine, it felt like her heart was being tugged at with so many strings. Even though she was in so much pain at that moment, she would rather not show that side to Stephan; couldn't let him see how much effect he has on her because she would rather cry in secret than cry in front of him right now.

When Stephan rejected her, she had thought it would all end there, but there was more to come.

Stephan immediately called out to his guards and ordered them to drag Jasmine away and whip her thoroughly, his reason being that she had dared to stand up to him. He also increased the work she had to do in the pack house.

As the guards took her away, Jasmine wanted to plead for forgiveness, but of what use is it to plead for forgiveness when she knows her pleas will only fall on deaf ears. She instead wept in silence as they took her to where she will be punished.

It would have been best if had rejected her and then set her free. All she could think of is how long will she be made to go through all this? How long until the moon goddess hears her cry and grants her long wish of death.

Indeed, her fate is nothing but a cruel one with no happiness written in her sad story.
