CLAIMING HIS REJECTED MATE

CHAPTER 7: THE BEAUTY OF A MAN?

NADIA POV

I groaned as I struggled to open my eyes.The sudden assault of sunlight forced me to shut my eyes momentarily.

I waited for a few seconds before I opened them again. This time, I was able to adjust to the light. I tried to get up from where I was but then I felt a sudden pain on my back causing me to groan in pain.

“Please stay still, don't move. You are still recovering.” I heard a soft voice coming beside me, causing me to gaze at the direction in a slow pace because of the pain, only to see a beautiful lady sitting comfortably on a couch. She looked breathtaking in a simple but long blue dress. Her brunette hair was styled beautifully on her head. She was sitting on the couch like a noble lady.

“W-who are you and where am I?” I asked, shocked all over my being.

“I am Amelia Jackson, the Alpha's sister.”

Of course she was a noble lady, what else was I expecting with the way she was dressed and her aura.

Wait!

“W-why am I here?” I finally asked the question that had been bothering my mind.

“You don't remember anything?” She asked with sheer shock in her tone of voice.

“I-I…y-you…” I couldn't find my voice. What really happened? I only…

“It's okay, don't try hard to remember, I am sure you will. For now, just rest. The Alpha said you should rest as much as you want.” She interrupted my thoughts as she strolled closer to the bed.

Bed? The Alpha? I was on the bed and at Alpha's place for that matter. This realisation made me force myself up despite the pain that I was in. How did I even end up on a bed?

“Please stop. Now my brother will kill me if he sees you groaning in pain like that. He always thinks I am the bad girl who likes torturing people.” The lady stated while wandering around the room in fear as if to be scared of the man she calls brother, making me feel bad about it.

“I-I am sorry, I didn't mean to cause you any trouble.” I apologised without a second thought. Even though I didn't know this lady, still she didn't deserve to be in trouble with her brother because of me, a nobody. With the way she spoke about the man, it only meant he was very hard on her.

“It's okay. Now rest, you will remember everything later. Let me tell the servant to serve you something.” She said and without waiting for my response, walked out of the room. This was better. At least I would have time to digest all of this information about servants and Alpha's sister and me, on a bed.

Who were these people? Why were they nice to me?

Suddenly, I felt a pang of pain behind my back causing me to lie back on the bed as I struggled to keep calm so that I wouldn't be heard outside the room.

“How about we have some fun”

“Catch her! Don't let her escape!” What? I could now remember what happened. There and then, I started to sweat. My hands were shaking while my knees were trembling. I was now worried.

I opened my eyes wide as a realisation dawned on me and I checked my body to feel if I could trace any discomfort. But I couldn't feel any.

“Are you okay?” Now I remembered. He saved me. Whoever he was, he still saved my life. Now I would be in debt with him forever. Now he would have power over me. I was now terrified. What would he do to me so that I would be able to repay him? Maybe I would talk to him about it before it's too late. Was he the Alpha the beautiful lady was talking about?

“Anyway, let me rest for now, I will find a way to repay him before he think of something that I won't like.” I murmured to myself. What I needed now was to rest. I didn't want to remember anything that happened in my previous pack because I was not ready to cry. Especially not in a place where I didn't know anyone. What I needed now waa to be on guard just in case. After all no one can be all nice to a person without demanding for something in return. I couldn't afford to be weak for now, at least until I found out the interior motives that made the handsome Alpha to save me.

I wished that wicked Dilai didn't kill my parents. Now I would be with them. I believed they would protect me if they were alive. But now, I was all by myself, no parents, no Jason, my protector. Melody had been quiet for a long time. I didn't know if she was still moaning about the rejection of our mate or what but I just hoped she would come around because she was the only one I had.

I pulled myself up and sat again on the bed after the pain subsided. Now I could see well where I was.

I could not help but gasp at the sight in front of me.

It was beautiful!

This was really a work of art and it was pretty.

The room was painted pink with a queen sized bed standing proudly at the centre with white sheets on it and a white duvet which was covering my lower body. Opposite the bed at the far end, was a window with a beautiful cream curtain. Close to the bed was the white couch which had almost five pillows on it. At the other side was a door which I supposed led to the bathroom. White tiles were shining at the floor with a small drawer closer to the bed and a huge wordrobebeside the drawer.

This was beautiful. Whoever these people were, they must be very rich. I only saw things like these in my old pack. Never once did I lie on a bed like this one. I only used to clean the room and spread it and that was it.

As an omega, I wasn't allowed to put my dirty body, as they referred to it, on beautiful furniture like this one.

As I was still in my world, I heard a knock on the bed causing me to stop wandering my eyes all over the place and lay back on the bed so that whoever was coming, wouldn't know what I was doing just now.

A young man dressed in a white apron, a white shirt and black trousers with a white apron entered the room with a food cart.

“Good morning my lady.” He greeted and bowed.

This was ridiculous. I felt like laughing but he would think that I was crazy so I bit my lower lip hard.

‘My lady.’ That name sounded weird to me. After all, it was only used to address ladies of higher rank in a pack. Like Luna and her daughters, Beta’s wife and daughters and ladies from elite families but not Omegas like me with no power. But I knew it was not his fault. He didn't know what he was doing and that he was better than me right now. And the bow, he was something else. After all, this was not my pack. I was no different than a rogue here. What was worse, from an Omega to a rogue? Now, I was a rogue waiting for the unknown from the owners.

“Good morning.” I answered, causing him to push the food cart closer to me and left me immediately without looking back.

“Can I come in?” I heard someone asking behind the door, immediately the man who I thought was the servant left the room and I wanted to laugh.

“Yes.” I answered, pushing the thought of laughing behind my back.

The door opened and the same beautiful lady came in. When she saw me on the bed, she smiled, causing me to wonder what was there to smile about.

“My brother, the Alpha, wants to join you if you don't mind.”

“What?.” The word came out without letting me think first.

“Let him come, he is so handsome. I am sure you will like him because I already want him.” It seemed like this wolf of mine was over Jason anyway, I was all wrong.

“Ooh, so you have been here all this while and couldn't talk to me, you little hoe!” I shouted at my wolf melody. She really had the guts to say that to me after keeping quiet all this while..

“Hhaha! I am sorry Nadia, now concentrate, the beautiful lady is talking to you.” She giggled as if we were on good terms after what she did to me. Anyway, I would talk to her later and confront her.

“Are you okay?” I heard the lady, or should I say ‘Amelia, the Alpha's sister’ talking, causing me to gaze at her and what annoyed me was that she smiled again.

This lady was really something else, why was she even laughing? Was I ugly? Or did I have something on my face? Or was she not okay in the head? No one was perfect anyway, even though she had all that beauty. She was tall by the way but shorter than me.

“What's so funny?” I managed to ask even though I didn't want to because I feared her. I knew this confidence of mine would lead me in trouble one day.

“You look beautiful when you open your big green eyes and long lashes like that.” She blurted out, causing me to blush hard.

“She is more than just beautiful, I know you are jealous, Amelia.” Here he was,how did he even get it? I swear I had never seen a man so beautiful like this one. Of course my Jason was handsome but this one was beautiful.

He was too beautiful to be human let alone a man. I was sure that last time I didn't see him well because I fainted.

“Ignore her, she is just like that, always jealousy, that's her weakness. One of the many she is hiding under her sleeves , by the way, my name is Alpha Nathan Dicon Jackson but people prefer calling me Alpha Dicon.”
