CLAIMING HIS REJECTED MATE

CHAPTER 5: I AM NO LONGER A MEMBER OF THIS PACK

"We can do this Melody, we are stronger than they think." I encouraged my Wolf as I finished the last touch on my hair.

After the humiliation Jason caused me yesterday by forcing me to apologize to Dilai, I came to a decision to let him go.

Since he is no longer the man we made promises to sail the journey of life together, what's the need to keep holding on to him?

Nothing good will ever come out of my stubbornness to stay around Jason.

They say that if you love someone, don't cage them, let them go but my decision had nothing to do with Love.

If anything, the only thing I felt for Jasonwas hatred, deep and unconcealable hatred.

'Let's start life afresh, just you and me. ' Melody replied.

Jason's rejection and blatant disrespect had broken her but she is strong, so strong that she didn't let me drown in my sorrows.

Taking one last glance at myself in the mirror, I took a deep breath.

I know that the decision I was going to make would change my life completely but it was needed.

I might end up alone and as a rogue, the one thing I have hated all my life but what else could I do? I needed to be out of the shackles of the so called bond.

Since my mate didn't want me, I was not going to stoop so low as to beg him or pester him.

Stepping out of the small cottage, I made my way to the pack.

The atmosphere at the pack screamed of grandeur and nobility. The soft music that sounded from the hall accompanied by the sweet scent of Jasmine flowers filling the air prompted me to take a deep breath.

Today was a special day for the pack since their Alpha would be marrying the love of his life.

'What a perfect pair!' Melody snickered.

Yes, a murderer and a heartbreaker, they deserved each other.

I walked to the hall with ease. Nobody was paying attention to me, a worthless Omega and that worked perfect for me.

The pack was beautifully decorated, one would think like a Royal wedding was bound to happen here.

Despite coming to terms that Jason and I would never be, I could not help but think how it would be if the bride was not my mortal enemy but me.

Undoubtedly, I would be the happiest woman in the whole universe. Too bad, that was only an imagination and the reality was too cruel.

After promising me heaven on earth, a lifetime together, he did not bat an eyelid choosing another woman to be his bride.

I could only relate his promise to an o****m, sweet but doesn't stick around for long.

The wedding procession starts and Dilai walked down the aisle in her sparkling gold wedding dress. Jason who was standing at the altar had a sweet smile on his face. Looking at him smile so brightly to another woman, I felt a stab in my heart.

At the end of the day, he cared about my status as an Omega and deemed me unworthy of him.

Since Dilai made him happy, then I'd set him free and move on with my life.

Maybe after leaving this pack and forgetting about his betrayal, I could finally find peace with myself and be happy.

With that resolve, I took graceful steps to the altar.

I could hear the gasps from the people but nobody stopped me.

Taking the microphone, I cast my eyes at him, drinking his handsome face for the last time.

The memories of our happy days when he would piggy back me, share his food with me and play with me flashed through my mind.

Those had to be the happiest days of my life. Then he suddenly disappeared. Leaving everything behind, I had wandered around, trying to locate him but never succeeded. I didn't lose hope and for three years, I kept searching.When I learnt of his return, I was excited, excited that at last, he remembered me and came back to me. Too bad…

Taking a deep breath, I finally did it.

" I, Nadia Willow, an Omega from Moon Stone pack accept your rejection, Jason William as my mate and Alpha."

Gasps and murmurs filled the hall as the people started talking in hushed voices.

The excruciating pain that tore through me had me clenching my fists tightly as beads of sweat covered my body.

Jason just stood there, watching me.

Being an Alpha meant that he was powerful and with my status as an Omega, my rejection meant nothing to him.

"How dare you cause a scene on our wedding day?" Dilai's angry voice boomed. Her face was burning red with anger and for some reason, that made me happy. Since she came in between Jason and I, it only serves her right to have her wedding disrupted.

If anything, this was nothing compared to the evil things she ever did.

"What are you waiting for? Catch that crazy woman and throw her to the dungeons!" She ordered the guards who seemed to be in a trance following my actions. Maybe nobody thought that I'd accept Jason's rejection.

I chuckled, my eyes looking straight at Dilai.

"You don't have the right to order anything when it comes to me dear Luna," I countered, my voice dripping with sarcasm.

"I am no longer a member of this pathetic pack. I can't stand being part of murderers and heartless people. I , Nadia Willow cut all ties with the Moon Stone pack. From today onwards, no bond binds us together. " I declared, dropping yet another bomb for the day.

I watched in satisfaction as Dilai's face turned beet red with anger, a sweet smile painting my lips.

'We made it. ' Melody whispered in my mind, broadening my smile.

'We did. From today onwards, it's just the two of us against the world.' II replied before turning around and walking away.
