"Did he just reject us?!" Joy asked angrily but I gave her no reply, I couldn't say anything, I was stunned by what he had just said.
"he just rejected us, didn't he?!" she questioned more eagerly this time, I went silent for a while trying to process what my Mate had just said "No not yet, and even if he does there's no way I am going to accept his rejection, " I said more to myself than to joy, I tried my best to swallow the lump that was forming in my throat."I'm sorry what?" I said as I snapped out of my daze. "What do you mean by you don't want me as your mate?" me being his mate had made me forget that he is the ruthless alpha king who doesn't like repeating his words."I said I don't want a pathetic excuse for a wolf as my mate" his voice was cold and ruthless as he looked at me his mate with disdain and indifference. "I do not need an omega who cannot shift as my mate," he said as he looked at me with disdain.I scoffed at his unbelievable decision. "you don't want me because I can't shift and I am an omega?" I asked angrily, my emotions were getting out of hand, and I couldn't control them, some moments ago I was happy that I have finally found my mate but now, I feel like exploding my mate is about to reject me. Joy on the other hand was not helping, she kept begging me to tell him about her and that I should shift but I didn't, I wasn't going to beg him, and I would make him regret it if he rejects me, he is going to pay for treating omegas like they are nothing. "then reject me," I said looking him straight in the eyes "Reject me and regret ever doing so"My words almost came out as a whisper that I could barely hear myself but his werewolf hearing caught what I said. I knew that my words were not always anywhere near being a threat but I wanted him to know that he was going to regret his own decisions his next word drained me of my breath and I felt like crying."ok let's get on with it," he said as he raised his right hand, and crossed his left hand across his chest.My heart started to beat at an uncontrollable rate, his actions had hit the darkest spot in my gut the spot that I had already forgotten that I had in my mind."you will always be abandoned by those you love, no one will love you, they will all leave you in the end, and you will spend the rest of your miserable life alone."I quickly grabbed my shaky right hand with my left hand, and I shifted my gaze to the floor, I had to prepare myself for what was about to happen to me I knew he could sense my fear.And I was right, he looked down at my shaking hand, and I saw anger in his eyes."you can't even handle a little rejection and you want to be my mate," he said as he mocked.This made me lift my gaze back to his mesmerizing red eyes that were now staring down at me and then he continued with his unfinished rejection."I Allan Xavier Eugene reject you Rica Walker as my Mate and Luna!"Allan growled."It's Erica, not Rica," I said before I could stop myself.For a second I thought I saw amusement on his face before it turned to anger, he looked less angry and more hot at the same time."Erica, seriously, you could have just let him say the wrong words, "Joy said in frustration tired of the mess we are in."See, you can't even say your name without saying the wrong one," he said angry and frustrated."Well just make sure you have told me the right name this time because if this mistake repeats itself I will punish you do you understand what I just said? " he said with a cold glare and it took everything in me not to run out of the door and hide away from him."do you understand?" he asked impatientlyI gulped hard at his words and nodded."Words Erica, use your words""yes Allan" I replied sharply before I realized what I just said, I just called him by his name oh no."oh no," I said in my head."What did you just call me?" he asked angrily."I.said.what.did.you.just.call. me?" he asked again as he emphasized every word and I flinched at his loud voice."Allan" I replied shakingly."don't you ever call me that again, I am Alpha king to you, understood," he asked."yes " I replied but my answer wasn't enough for him." yes what ?"" yes Alpha King" I replied which in turn satisfied him." good," he said with a nod and did the same thing he did a while ago lifting his right hand and crossing his left hand across his chest. "I Allan Xavier Eugene reject you Erica Walker as my Mate and future Luna!" he growled again."I do not accept!" I replied calmly making sure to hide my shaking voice."you do not accept what?" he asked raising an eyebrow which Inturn reveals his glowy red eyes."I do not accept your rejection" I replied calmly making sure to look at him this time."you think you have a choice in this hunh?" he shouted as he grabbed my neck and hit my back against the wall" If you do not accept this rejection, you will regret it" he beamed." I still won't accept it"I replied with tears rolling down my cheeks." fine then, I will make you regret this moment over and over again until you beg me to reject you! " he growled and with that, he left the room.Silence fell into the room, I still couldn't believe what had just happened to me, I stood there rooted in the same spot, and all I could do was cry. l cried without caring if anyone would hear me or not, I cried not only because he rejected me but because I was surprised at my own words, why did I go against this horrible man, I knew I was in for it.It felt like the whole world was crushing and I was the only one underneath It.maybe the voice is right, I am meant to be abandoned in the end, the first people to leave me was me were my mom who died while giving birth to me and my dad who left way before I was born, then John my first mate, David my second mate and now Allan has also rejected me, I couldn't find myself so I decided to stay back in the room until I was able to find myself.***the next morning, I woke up with my head throbbing in pain, I looked around the dark room I was sitting in."how did I get here?" I said more to myself than anyone else then I remembered everything, how Mica and I tried to escape and how she found her Mate and I found mine but he was an asshole, the rejection, how I felt Last night after he left, how I wondered how my life became like this and how I couldn't stop crying till darkness took over.I sat down for a while, trying to wrap my head at what had happened in less than a day, thinking of how I will keep on living from now on.I stood up abruptly and almost fell down because of the sharp pain which had left in a moment. I have always loved my ability to heal more quickly than anyone else but today, I wish I had no such ability, with a sigh I stood up more upright and I was ready to leave when I noticed the room I was in, every thing that happened yesterday had been terrible, I had no time to check the beautiful room out.the room was painted in beautiful red and black color, I was surprised with the aesthetic of the room. I had no idea when a small smile crept on my face and I was standing there all happy and enjoying the privilege to see such a beautiful room.without thinking, I went to check out the bathroom of the room an I was thrown aback with what I saw, oh. my. God.there was a bathtub in the middle of the bathroom and the shower was in another little bathroom covered with glasses, I forget to mention that the bathroom and the whole room is a big as my bathroom and my room.________sooooowhat do you think of this new chapter?, tell me if you were expecting anything else.well, see you in the next chapter .byeeeeeeesee you in the next chapter.37| Confusion. Yet I hardened my gaze. Why would he be sorry to me after everything? It didn't make any sense, he hated me and I knew he was not in his right senses yet. "I am not here for trouble Alpha king, all I need is the safe passage of my people and I will scram. You will never see me nor my shadow ever again. What do you say?"I had been thinking for days on reconciling with him yet, seeing him beg I couldn't help but remember every single thing I had been through, I couldn't see anything but hatred in me for him. I rubbed my belly as dsicretly as I could yet he caught my little action, his brow furrowed. "What do you mean?"I sighed, my heart calming at the thought that he asked no question about my little gesture, sighing, I explained to him the dilemma of my people and everything they had been through and the fact they were trying to go away and I who I was to them, I let out the many things I had come to know and my power too. By the time i was finished speaking, my l
36| Break. I raised my hand, eye glancing around the entrance, examining the large space before us. "Wait." Someone whispered behind me. Though we had no where planned for the wolves to go and it was stupid but I was too busy deep in my head to think about that. When the coast was clear, I walked out, willing them to follow after me. "Do not stop no matter what, run for the shades." Jay informed them. And they all nodded in understanding before running for the shades, Joy leading them while I stood behind, waiting till each one of them had disappeared to the shades, Jay left last then I followed. The deep woods were thick with trees, dense with mist and each step I took I could hear birds chirping, animals running through the bushes and the breeze gentle nudge on my skin. We stopped running, instead we opted for walks, we walked for days straight, killing animals to eat and taking water from the stream, by the fourth day, we were all exhausted but I was sure we were nearing the cle
35| To Freedom. This morning was different, no one came into my room to take my blood, I didn't get to see Jay till it was past lunch time and I wasn't given dinner either. Jay told me I was allowed a walk because of my pregnancy, so he was allowed to walk me to the garden every evening. "Why is the hallway quiet today?" I questioned, looking around."War is closing in soon, Hades has sent out most of his guards, even servants are forced to be part of it. "Jay replied, I stopped walking at the thought of the war, I had been told at the Ice pack that the war was supposedly for Alan's whore. Was he really willing to go so far just for that woman, my heart felt like it was being stabbed. A cheating mate was the worst. But was he even my mate? He had rejected me despite everything but he took me back.We had not completed the mating ritual though and I still didn't understand why we had not done so. I shook my head to discard the thought, then I continued on waking, Jay wouldn't stop l
34| Greedy. My thoughts reared back to last time I spoke to Joy before I returned to loosing my memories again, when I had asked her a question, after she explained so much to me and I asked her how come I had no memory or recollection of it, Joy had told me that those had been sealed off too, yet now, now I remember everything, from the fact that I had met Allan before, he had been so different, so nice, so in love with me that he was willing to loose everything, willing to fight and his eyes.... They were never amber.Something had happened that day, the day he was captured. My gaze flew to the cut in my hand as it dripped of blood and the girl standing before me, eyes on the blood as if she wanted to devour it. My hand rubbed my stomach. I was glad my baby was okay at least and Hades, I had not seen him in days. He only sent his minions to come take my blood every morning, day and night."That's enough," The girl stated and I retracted my hand, then I stood up the bad, head swa
33| Memories!"What the hell are you talking about?! First you glared at me, then you strangled me and now?! Now you are telling me that you have been waiting for me! What the hell is going on and who the fuck is that lady from my dream?" My voice raised higher and higher as I spoke, to top it all, my stomach growled."You should eat first." He informed, pushing the tray to me."No! You will tell me what I want now!" I commanded, eyeing the food yet unwilling to move, Jay held my gaze, expecting me to cave in and eat. He had no idea who he was dealing with. A sigh escaped his lips as he gave up."Fine." I relaxed and pulled the food closer to myself. The tray was filed with fruits, a fresh bread, butter and water. "What! I am hungry, I wall eat as you talk." His brows remain furrowed yet he didn't comment. "Just tell me what I have to know." He nodded, then he sat at the end of the bed, his gaze settled on me as I spoke."Have you heard of blue wolfs?" I shook my head. "Blue wolf's w
32| Welcome!"Sit here!" No matter how hard I glared at him, he refused to remain unbothered, as if he had not just almost killed me hours ago. Still glaring at him, I chose not to sit as he had told me to, since he had the upper hand the time, defying him was the only way to put my mind at peace. Hades laughed eyes shining in amusement, "very well, you can stand." Jay had alread left the throne room, leaving me with the bastard. " it has come to my attention that you are with child and I had taken too much of your blood the last time, so I will offer you a tru-""With child? What the heck are you trying to say! That I am pregnant?" A laugh bubbled put of my throat. " not only are you a disgusting blood sucker, you are also mentally unwell. Why would I be pregnant?" I pressed my hand to my stomach. It couldn't be, i-i didn't, I couldn't.Hades eyes darkened, he stood from his throne and the next I knew was his neck on my neck as he stood behind me, hades licked his lips before he dug
