Supernatural Shorts

I'm the land's most powerful Alpha. I don't need a mate. Mates make you weak. I'm not weak. I growl at myself, pacing in my office. It's not that big of a place, but it's big enough. My desk sits centered in the office, but more towards the back wall. The entire back wall is tinted glass, so I can see outside, but my pack cannot see into my office. It's nice, if I do say so myself. I ran my hand through my shoulder length blonde hair, growling deeply in my chest. I slammed my hands on my desk, letting my claws extend so I scratched a bit of the mahogany wood. "Skylar! Bring me Raylin!" I snarled to my Beta, who yelped a "yes Alpha!" and skittered down the hallway. I tapped my claws on the desk as I waited. Closing my eyes, I tried to focus as her addictive scent filled the room. Goddess, I couldn't believe I was doing this. A knock sounded on the door, and I growled for them to come in. "That didn't take long." I growled, raising an eyebrow, looking between the two as my Beta bowed his head and closed the door behind my mate. "I was already on my way to see you, Elena." My mate spoke softly, almost too softly for me to hear. I looked directly at her, my wolf, Ace, snarling at me for what I was about to do to her. "For what reason?" When she didn't answer me, I growled and changed the subject to why I had called for her. "I, Alpha Elena Blake, of the East Rapids pack, reject you, Raylin Blake, as my Luna and my mate." I stated, as she sighed softly, bowing her head gently. When she lifted her head, she had tears in her eyes and allowed them to fall. "I'm six weeks pregnant with your child. And I, Raylin Blake, of North Rapids pack, accept your rejection." Tears flowed down her face as we both hit the ground with a loud yelp and growls. Goddess, this hurt more than I cared to admit. When the pain subsided, Raylin left me alone in my office. I scratched my claws towards me, down my desk drawers, until I hit my knees on the ground. I was panting hard, and sweat dribbled down my brow as I caught my breath. I growled deeply, and when I got up, I flipped my desk. With another growl, I lifted my desk and threw it out the window. The two wolves that were walking on the path there turned to look at the desk that landed in the clearing next to them, and then back at me. My eyes widened as I saw that it was Raylin and my Delta, Vax. I stalked towards them, and reached out to grab Raylin's wrist, shuddering at the sparks that still flowed through our now severed mate bond just by her mere presence. "Why didn't you tell me sooner?" I gritted out, forcing myself to calm down, that male appendage of mine trying to make itself known for her. She and Vax bowed their heads before she let out a short, harsh laugh. "You avoid me like I'm a plague and you ask me why I didn't try to tell you?" she snarled. "You took my virginity, Alpha Elena, got me pregnant, avoided me, and then rejected me!" she continued, her eyes threatening to spill tears again. I winced, whimpering. While she was right, it didn't make the statement hurt any less. I sighed softly and looked up at her, trying to look less pitiful than I really felt. "Please, stay. I can make sure you're both taken care of. You don't have to leave." She scowled and ripped her hand from me, and I whimpered softly. s**t. Why did I have to be like this? "Forgive me, Alpha Elena, but Vax is escorting me to the border, and then I will be heading back to my pack. My child will be raised by the North Rapids pack." She bowed her head, which was customary for a wolf lower than the Alpha. I hung my head in shame. I really f****d up this time. I shouldn't have done that to her. She was - had been - the best mate I could have asked for. And I treated her like s**t. I'm such a f*****g loser, I sighed as she and Vax took off towards the border. I watched them until I couldn't see them anymore, the hole in my chest hurting enough that I had trouble breathing. I let the tears that I had been holding back fall, allowing myself that moment of weakness, because f**k it all, right? I'm so sorry, Raylin. Please forgive me. I love you...
