Loving His Rejected Mate

The first thing that welcomed Xenia as she opened her eyes was the harsh ray of sun coming in from the open window. She raised a hand to block the sunlight from harming her eyes and sat up on the bed. Her head was pounding profusely as if she had used it to hit a huge pole in the middle of the city. She looked around the luxurious room, trying to remember where she was and how she ended up getting there. Her eyes fell on the pieces of furniture in the room and how luxurious they were. How on earth did she end up here? Everything in this room screamed about money and class. Could it perhaps be someone’s house? Or a presidential five-star hotel room? The big question was how she ended up here? Just then, she felt a charming smell in the room and a presence beside her on the soft bed. Her eyes widened as she turned her head to stare at the handsome man who was lying beside her with his eyes closed. “Wh…what have I done?” She muttered. She stared at her body under the blanket. Damn, she was naked. Lying on a bed with a man not wearing any clothes. What exactly happened? Did she sleep with this man? “I…I did it.” The ache between her legs said it all. The memories of the previous night flooded her brain immediately and Xenia’s eyes widened. She remembered that she had cried her eyes out after thinking of her whole life and had entered a bar to cool herself and take away every sorrow that she has. Then, after drinking till she was drunk, she approached the man sitting next to her. The details of what happened next were unclear to her but the last she remembered was him taking her to a room and her embarrassing screams and moans as they mated. Xenia’s face reddened at the thought of the previous night and she quickly searched around for her clothes. This man here seems influential and his scent was luring her in that she has the urge to lay on his chest and not leave. “Mate,” she heard her wolf growl confirming her doubts and her hands flew to her chest. He seems wealthy and a high-rank wolf. He was her mate? At that thought, her eyes flashed to the golden wall clock and she gasped. It's already half past nine. Damn! She was late for work. She has to leave right now. Throwing the blanket off her body, her eyes scanned the pile of clothes on the floor for her dress and as she found them, she immediately wore her dress and picked up her purse from the bedside table before dashing out of the room and out of the club. She was never coming to this place ever again. ***** “f**k!” How dare she leave?” A deep voice growled as he sat up on the bed, his eyes scanning the room for the trace of the lady he spent the night with but she was nowhere to be found. The only thing she left behind was her intoxicating smell that seemed to draw him in and his eyes widened as his wolf struggled inside of him. She was his mate! How dare she run off after their night of passion? Weaving his hands through his hair, Killorn stood up from the bed and walked to the bathroom in the luxurious room. After washing up, he entered into the walk-in closet and dressed up for the day. Finding his phone, he dialed a number. “Alpha.” The person on the other side greeted… “Get the surveillance video. I want to find out something. Do that before two hours and come pick me up, now,” he ordered before putting his phone inside his pocket. He could still picture the woman in his mind. Her coffee-brown hair and her alluring moans coupled with her smell which made him want to search for her and never let her go again. He wore his tie and walked outside the club to find his car already waiting for him. Killorn Hank, sat down majestically at the back seat of the Bentley like the Alpha that he was and ordered his secretary to drive. “Morning coffee?” The man at the driver’s seat immediately handed him a sealed coffee cup wrapped up in a bag and Killorn unwrapped it and started consuming his morning coffee. It wasn't ordinary coffee. Suddenly, the car halted abruptly causing the coffee to spill on his spotless white shirt. “What the f**k was that?” His eyes brewed with anger at the sight of his shirt stained with coffee. “I'm sorry, sir. The woman crossed without looking. I had to avoid her.” “Drive to the mall.” He needed to grab a new shirt. Getting to the mall, Killorn climbed down from the car and strode into the mall. He was welcomed with a huge commotion. On the floor was a girl who was being dragged and people were viewing and perhaps taking videos of the scene before them. Killorn’s nose picked up the scent again. The same scent he smelled in his room when he woke up. It was the same scent here. “What is going on here,” he asked and watched as the manager of the mall walked to him with a sad expression on his face. “This lady, she stole from us last night. We found a golden chain in her locker this morning. She is a thief.” The lady was brought to him and thrown to his feet. His eyes scanned the lady and much to his surprise, she was the same girl he spent the night. His wolf growled at this. MINE! “Did you find the information I asked you for?” He telepath to his secretary. “I did. Her name is Xenia Luxton. She's 21. No parents. She was once a part of our pack. Her mother is Kathy Luxton who was beheaded by the previous Alpha of our Red Moon pack after getting caught stealing and her daughter was banished from the pack for her mother’s crime. Currently, she’s not a part of any pack and has….” “Enough!” He stopped the man from continuing and broke their communication. He already found the information he needed. Turning to the people in front of him, he said. “The lady is innocent. She was with me last night.” They started murmuring. “Now, everyone, dismiss and go back to your work.” His eyes signaled the manager to speak to the customers and apologize. “Stand up,” he ordered. With shaky legs, Xenia stood up on her feet and stared at her foot, avoiding the eyes of the man on her. Did he think that she stole the chain? She didn't. She was only being framed by her colleagues. This morning, she had come to work and everybody was looking at her weirdly and then the manager came in, dragging her hair and pushing her down. Killorn held her wrist with his large cold hands and dragged her with him to a part of the mall where no one passes. Who would have thought that this place was his? She had seen how he yelled at the manager. “Th..thank you,” she said. “For what? For not letting the police arrest you or for letting you off the hook?” “Both.” “Hmm…. For a thief, you sure are a scaredy cat.” Her eyes widened. “I.. I didn't ste…” “Forget about it. I'm sure you're aware that we are mates. That doesn't mean I'm going to accept a thief as my mate. I am a prideful person.” What is he saying? “I, Alpha Killorn Hank of the red moon pack, rejects you, Xenia Luxton as my mate and break every bond and connection with you.”
