Second Chance Love

Rejection

"Don't worry love, If I ever find my mate, I will reject them for you. I love you, and you will be the perfect Luna one day." He says to Her,

I gasp out loud and feel the eyes fall on me.

I look at the people before me and see Kyle and Kasey and sick to my stomach. Kyle says" Mate as confirming what I have figured out and turns his head to look at her, then me again. Kyle lets go of Kasey and walks towards me with a angry look on his face.

I watch as he stops before me and takes a deep breath before saying " I Kyle Verner, future alpha of the West River pack. Reject you Selena Brown, as my mate and the future Luna of the pack."

As he says this, I feel the pain of the mate bond breaking and a tear slips out. " Why? The moon goddess doesn't make mistakes. I'm your perfect match," I said to him.

All he does is laugh and reply" Because you are not worthy of being the Luna or even my mate. ""I need someone like Kasey who will be a lot better than you." He looks at her and smiles. I looked over at her, and she got a smirk on her face, almost like she planned this, but she's my best friend. I choose not to believe that would be true. Don't worry, we will get through this, Sera says to me.

"I Selena Brown, accept your rejection as your mate and future Luna of the pack" I replied, heartbroken as he bent down, clutching his heart at the rejection. He looks back at me with a quick glimpse of almost would be regret, but that is gone as soon as it showed up. I watch as he goes back to her and kisses her. I looked away and, with my head down, turn to go back inside with tears flowing.

I stopped at the door and wiped my eyes and tried to pretend that I wasn't crying. I head back inside as the music is blaring. I look around, trying to find either my parents or brother.

Kyles POV

I stood in the clearing outside the arena with Kasey as she was talking about school. I thought to myself that I should wait for my mate, but would someone else be the perfect Luna and mate like Kasey. I don't think so. My wolf Frost seems to think otherwise. He is constantly telling me that I should wait for my mate and all will be good. I ignored him and continued being with her.

Do not get me wrong. Kasey is great to look at smoking body and great in bed and just got enough brains to be a good Luna. She doesn't have much else going for her.

We drown out the party noise and stand by the trees. I push her against it, and she giggles and flirts with me. I kissed down her neck and up and press my lips against hers several times. I pull away and whisper sweet nothing's to her and fill her with my love.

"Kybear, what is going to happen if you find your mate tonight?" she asks. I gently kissed her forehead and cheeks before heading to peck her lips.

I hear the word mate from my wolf and just drown him out not believing it. Frost is going nuts in my head, so I tell him to knock it off and go back to sleep.

I reply "Don't worry love, If I ever find my mate, I will reject them for you. "I love you, and you will be the perfect Luna one day." All of a sudden, I hear a gasp and smell the scent of raindrops. I turn to look at where the sound is coming from and see Selena standing there looking as good as ever.

"Mate" I say, not realizing i said that out loud. I looked at Kasey before I headed over to the Selena. I am angry at myself and at the moon goddess for pairing me with her. Yeah, she is a Betas' daughter, but not one that I think would make a good Luna. Frost is telling me to not reject her and to accept her. Shes special. We need her, please please need mate special mate. He sounds like a love sick puppy. I told him no and shut him out.

" I Kyle Verner, future alpha of the West River pack. "Reject you Selena Brown, as my mate and the future Luna of the pack." I reject her as soon as I get to her.

I stand there and wait for the acceptance to come when she quietly asks" Why? The moon goddess doesn't make mistakes. I'm your perfect match,"

I laugh and reply," Because you are not worthy of being the Luna or even my mate." I watch as her eyes water and as she grips her heart like she's in pain. "I need someone like Kasey who will be a lot better than you." I am getting impatient, waiting for her to accept it already.

I watch as she sighs and replies "I Selena Brown, accept your rejection as your mate and future Luna of the pack." I nod and head back over to Kasey. As I am heading back, I feel the rest of the bond break and double over in pain as it happens. I quickly glanced back with regret but quickly covered it up and finished my trek back to Kasey. My wolf howls in pain after all is said and done.

Selenas POV

I quickly find my mom and head over to her. Mom looks at me and instantly knows something is wrong. " Hey birthday girl, what's wrong?" She asks. I shake my head as tears slip out. She pulls me into a hug and pulls me to a corner where we can get some privacy. She takes my head in her hands and kisses my forehead.

I close my eyes and enjoy being held by my mother and the comfort that it brings.

What's wrong - She asks again, mindlinking me.

I shook my head and responded - I just want to go home. I am not feeling well.

Please tell me - She asks again

Im fine for now. I just want to go lay down- I respond.

Ok baby girl. - She responds in a worried tone. She kisses me on the head before I head out.

I know I am going to have to tell them, but I do not want to ruin their night tonight. I headed back home and changed out of the dress and climbed into bed after opening the window. I can hear the rushing of the river and the crickets chirping. I pray to the moon goddess and hope that I will be so lucky to get a second chance mate. I let the tears slip out and cry for my loss and for Seraphinas loss. Seraphina is whimpering in my head at the loss of her mate. I try to tell her that things will get better and that we should have hope. I'm just not sure if I even believe that just yet. I close my eyes and go to sleep.

Sleep eventually takes over and it's anything but peaceful.

The dream I have is more of a nightmare really. I dream of Kyle and Kasey and the rejection and how he is going to mark her and make her the Luna of the West River Pack. All night is the same nightmare over and over like my mind is torturing me.

Unknown POV:

The past few weeks have been tiring. We have met with The alpha and betas of 4 different packs. Each one was them pushing any untamed she-wolves in my direction, hoping that one of them would be mated to the Alpha King. I groan and wake up for the day ready to head to the last pack we have to attend to the West River pack.

Dane - I hear my Beta Jason mindlinks me

What? - I said back to him in a grumpy way.

I am nowhere close to a morning bird, but we have quite a ways to travel.

I have got the cars pulled round ready to go. Are you ready to say goodbye? - He says way to eager

I laugh as he says this he hasn't been enjoying this either. I'll be right down - I reply.

I get up the shower and head down the stairs where my beta is looking bored as this young she-wolf is chatting his ear off. The alpha and Luna are there to greet us and say our goodbyes. Once the goodbyes are done, we get in the car to head to the last pack before heading back home. I Look out the window and watch the scenery go by.
