Rejected but Special

Chapter Three

CHASE

Waking up to find wolf Rex all jumpy, I asked what was wrong with him but didn’t get a reply, this doesn’t happen as he is always so stoic, I always thought nothing could ever shake him, shrugging it off, I went to the kitchen to check if the pack omega had gotten everything ready for today which Rex growled at for some reason, she even prepared extra but there was no sign of the her here or anywhere, she had probably gone to school

* * *

I was on my way to class, when someone dragged me into an empty classroom, from the person’s smell it was Britney, who I have been hooking up with for a long while now, , her perfume always stood out more than everyone I had ever known.

I let her pin me on the wall, she started kissing me all over and then suddenly I perceived the most amazing like vanilla, It smelt so good.

“Mate, mate, go after mate” Rex growled in my head but when I pulled away from Britney, I didn’t see anyone there.

“What the hell, Britney” I yelled furiously and she flinched, now because of her I couldn’t meet my mate, she must be really hurt now.

“I am sorry, I had a free period and I thought we could spend the time together”

“You thought huh? It seems I have been too lenient with you” I grabbed her neck, giving it a squeeze” “I should just do away with your pretty little neck since all it does is think for me , right?””

“Chase I –“

“Don’t… “ I let her go “I don’t want to see your face till the end of the day, got it?” I warned and without waiting for her to respond, I stormed off, going after my supposed mate.

I did not pick up the scent from my mate again after I left Britney till the end of school. I was walking out of class when I bumped into someone and the smell from my mate invaded my very being, It took everything within me to keep Rex from coming out but as I looked down to catch a glimpse of her face, I felt like I was doused in cold water.

“What the hell” I couldn’t help but shout

“What” She asked, seeing her look so confused almost made me falter “Damn mate bond” I said in my head and Rex growled in response, I wasn’t going to let him take control, not this time.

“Meet me near the oak tree now” I said in a low voice and stomped out of the school and into the woods

“Moon Goddess, is this a curse or a blessing

“Don’t you dare reject her” Rex warned

“She is not worth it, not worth us, Rex”

“Yes she is, she is our mate… You will regret it, don’t do this”

“No, I won’t Rex, I cannot accept her, she is weak and practically a human, she cannot defend our pack, so whether you agree or not I am rejecting her” Rex didn’t speak again, he just shut me out and immediately she arrived, I could feel the mate bond trying to pull me closer to her but I can’t, I have to do this.

“Why in the f*****g hell did the Moon Goddess pair me with someone like you… You are nothing but an ugly and pathetic human” I saw the hurt in her eyes and Rex whimpered but I still continued “You are not even strong enough to beat the cubs, I need a strong Luna not a slave”

“Someone like me” I heard her murmur to herself “But mates are meant to love each other no matter what, I mean you cannot fight the mate bond right?” There was ovbious hurt and confusion in her eyes but I didn’t pay any mind

“pfft…” I scoffed “Yeah right, I Chase Rainer, future Alpha of the Blood Moon pack reject you Hayley Carter as my mate and Luna”

Although I felt something snap within me but I paid it no mind, I did not give her any time to accept the rejection as I left immediately I finished speaking.

LUCAS

I ran home from early after school excited to wish my only sister a wish her happy birthday, although all I ever want to do is to take her pain away. I got to the attic where she usually stay trying so much not to make an appearance unless called but I found the place empty, more spotless, not looking like someone even lived there.

I moved to check the wardrobe but still there was nothing there, I weaved my hand in my hair in frustration, almost panicking and in the corner of my eye I sighted a some letters on the bed, I

Picked it up and read each letter with tears flowing freely from my eyes but when I read the last one I was furious.

I ran down the stairs furiously ready to beat the living hell out of him for rejecting my sister, but when I got to the living room I caught sight of the Alpha and Luna walking in, back from their trip.

“Alpha, Luna, you have returned” I greeted calmly but the gods knew I was still fuming

“Yes Lucas, where is your sister? She usually is the first to always welcome us” Luna Samantha asked, she has always liked Hayley, always saying something about her being special or something. Before I could reply Chase walked in.

“Here, take this”, I handed the letters to Luna Samantha walked towards Chase more like stomped

“What’s up bro”

“You tell me” I said before throwing the hardest punch I could muster and he fell not expecting it.

“What the hell Lucas, what was that for?” He asked holding his blood stained cheek.

“I should have asked you that same question when you were abusing my sister” I yelled going in for another blow

“Calm down man, let’s talk this through” he suggested as he stood up from the floor

“Calm down? Don’t you dare tell me to f*****g calm down Chase after hearing that you rejected my sister, your own mate, so what? Huh? So you could go be with that slut?”

“What are you talking about Lucas?” Alpha Jackson asked with a deep frown

“It’s all in the letter, Alpha, it’s all there” I said pointing to the letters in Luna Samantha’s hands as she looked with tears in her eyes “how he rejected her and how she declared that she was leaving”

I turned back to Chase, pure hatred evident in my eyes “She can’t have gone far on foot. I am going to search the border to see if I can find her, if I do, I will spare you. But if I don’t… Goddess help me. I don’t care whether you are my Alpha’s son or not, I am going to beat the living hell out of you” I threatened not bothering to care about the look on Alpha Jackson’s face knowing he cares about respect more than anything but this is my sister. I went outside, shifting to my ash wolf in mid air not even caring about my torn clothes.

I ran as fast as I could to every checkpoint on our borders but before I could get to the western border, I felt the pack connection I had with Hayley cutting off. Hurriedly, I ran there and I perceived her scent and another though faint, which means are already long gone, now I realized that my sister is gone, for good, I howled in pain.

“I am going to kill you Chase” I roared into the pack link then ran back to the pack house for revenge.

KACEY

The sound of a crash woke me up from my slumber, I realized that we were not moving instead we had crashed into a tree. Hayley was out on the airbag.

“I tried waking you but you wouldn’t rise, she wanted to protect you so she made her side of the car hit the tree” my wolf, Anther explained

“No, no, no, this can’t be happening” I panicked as tears gathered in my eyes. I came out of the vehicle and went around to her side of the car, I tried to open the door but it was stuck so I had to rip it off from its hinges with the help Anther. But then I realized that her legs were stuck underneath.

“What do I do?” I asked myself panicking when suddenly I heard growling from behind me, I turned to see three huge wolves slowly staking towards me like I was their prey

“Of course you are their prey” Anther said but before I could retort, the lead wolf went behind a tree to shift and came back on shorts and no shirt, just abs but my did he just look so heavenly or rather looked so edible, I couldn’t help but gawk.

“Smell the air i***t” Anther snorted and I did as she said

“Mate” I said in almost a whisper but he there was not a change in his expression

“What are you doing here, rogue? State your business” he finally spoke but man did his voice almost made me melt.

“I am deeply sorry” I quickly apologized “we didn’t mean to trespass, we are running away from our former pack, looking for a place to stay but we had an accident. Please help her, she is my friend” I pleaded for him to help Hayley, she cannot heal like normal wolves and I cannot just imagine her dying. seeing that they were not moving I added to show my sincerity “We mean no harm, I swear it on the moon goddess”

“It’s alright mate” the Guy spoke with a small smile on his face and I was shocked because I thought he did not want to acknowledge the mate bond “but the Alpha would like to meet you first and as for your friend she would be well taken care off” He continued and I visibly relaxed.

“Thank you so much” I deeply appreciated him, he nodded to the other two guys who ripped aoart the vehicle and carried Hayley. We all walked towards the pack.
