Bittersweet Rejection Mga Nobela at Kwento

And I hate ME. “No. You don’t owe me a thing, so you cannot stop me by any means, if you want to kill her, then kill her and see me not giving a fly fuck.” Acid gnawed at my gut. “And now, I, Natalia Brooks McAllister, Reject you as my mate.” a muscle pulsed in my jaw, and my heart burst into million pieces with the loud echoes of her words of rejection. I could taste the blood at the back of my throat, my hand started to turn numb and it was on a drastic level. My eyes started to glisten with anger and with pain. The pain of rejection was unbearable and the anger was surging through my veins because I could not do anything about this rejection except to accept it, it was all so UNBEARABLE.

“It was a deal breaker. I wanted to graduate from Beta Academy on my own. Prove I could do it, that my mom was wrong.” “Forever is a long time. What if you don’t like your mate when you meet them?” I asked. That’s when Shannen tells me about mate rejection. “Sounds painful,” “From what I have seen. It is extremely painful for the one doing the rejection. It’s uncomfortable for the one being rejected.” She shrugs her shoulders. “You are refusing a blessing from the goddess, and she wants the person doing the rejecting to know she isn’t happy about it.” “Note to self. Never reject a gift from a goddess.” I said, laughing.

I cannot believe the words that are coming from his mouth. This stings my heart beyond belief, being rejected by the man you love. He shall not see my tears; he shall not have the satisfaction of seeing me break down. Yes, I have done this so many times, but god, this hurts hard. It cuts deeper than a thousand knives. And to they cut deep. Rejection by the one that you love with all your heart and soul is a death sentence. Did I ever see such rejection be done upon me? Never in all my years did I once foresee that I shall ever hurt so much.

My wolf whined in my head at the mention of rejection, we are not marked and it won’t be as painful but rejection is still fucking rejection. “What the hell Selena?” Was the only thing I could utter because at that moment I felt everything stop, I started sweating, I don’t know what rejection feels like but my heart already felt heavy and pained upon hearing it. How could she say it’s too late for us? She turned at me with a pained expression on her face, a look that explained her pain and hurt, I know it wasn’t easy for her to come to that decision because finding a mate is hard, and rejecting that mate is even harder but the most difficult to the level of impossibility is finding a second

Now they both just gave me heartburn. “Why now?” Trick dropped his hand. “Because, our mate bond can’t continue to survive while we are separated. Any longer and we’ll go into rejection.” I stiffened. “You’re familiar with the concept. It really is as painful as they say it is. I’ve watched men, vampire and werewolf, who’ve survived the most gruesome battles in war be ripped apart by rejection.” My heartbeat began to pick up. Rejection was rare. Most did not dare defy the fates, but for those who did, they did so at the risk of their souls. During rejection, the fates reclaimed the soul, leaving behind a shell devoid of feeling and emotion.

“Yeah, Cami’s never been one for PDA either.” “Apparently that’s what the mate bond does to you, I wouldn’t know.” He shrugs, then makes a horrified face. “Oh shit! I’m sorry…” “It’s fine.” I push off the car and wrap my arms around myself. The only thing worse than getting rejected, is everyone pitying me over it. Well…maybe that’s not so much worse, just a really, really sucky bonus. Tucking my loose hairs behind my ears, I lift my shoulders. “Now what?”

He smiled a little at me like he felt like he should be careful with his words regarding the topic. “I know.” I just sighed. “But doesn’t she have a mate?” I frowned, thinking of the way she paused when I asked her that. “I know how it feels like to reject and be semi-rejected by a mate.” Sebastian's nosy face immediately reacted. I laughed a little at his face. Guys can be such gossip too. “But to fully reject and accept a rejection must be shattering. And she’s willing to do that, knowing she won’t have the same satisfaction she will have being with her mate by being with someone else,” I stated, a little worried.

My fingers trembled. He said nothing new. His rejection had already landed; I’d heard the words. But his stillness made it worse, as if he refused to witness the damage he’d done. I let the breath shudder out of me and did the only thing left that didn’t feel like dying: I made a choice. “I accept it.” My voice snapped like a thin wire. “I, Anya Voss, accept your rejection, Alpha Rowan.” The reaction was immediate and savage. White-hot pain exploded through me, not like heartbreak but like being ripped open. It clawed down my throat, stole air from my lungs, and everything went bright.

“Do you know what you want?” “Yeah. Her. But that’s all I know. She has a clear picture in her head, and I don’t and I didn’t want to promise her anything I can’t. I just…I just know since we met that I can’t imagine a future without her in it.” “Then why didn’t you say that?” I pinch the bridge of my nose. “I don’t know.” “Go fucking tell her, you moron. You had a quite literal brain fart due to a deep-rooted fear of abandonment and rejection that you need to get the fuck over, by the way. Not everyone is going to screw you over like fucking Lisa.”

“Can’t you hear a word I’m saying?! I forbid you from coming any closer to me!” I was too late. By the time I was done speaking, she stood rooted in front of me, her face barely inches away from mine, and I found myself breathing in the very air she was letting out. I was close enough to see a single tear drop from her left eye. My heart shrunk in my chest. Why? Why did I still have all these messed up feelings despite my very clear rejection? It was meant to put an end to this nonsense, yet I was more tormented than ever.
