Rejected but not forgiven

Chapter 8

Serena POV:

If you asked me how I thought I would meet my mate it definitely wouldn’t have went like this, I was never actively looking for my mate but would accept him if we were to meet. We can sense our mate from when we turn 18 but when I came of age I didn’t find him, I wanted the relationship my parents had full of love and happiness the way they looked at each you could see they meant everything to each other, a real fairytale love. Looking up at the handsome stranger through my lashes he growls and spits out “Who do you think you are!! Do you know who I am?!” Me being the person I am decide to not let this slide when I probably should have, I harden my face glare at him and say “I don’t care who the f*** you think you are, you don’t get to touch me without my permission so do yourself a favour and get out of my way!” I turn to Sienna to ask her if she wants to come and dance but if possible she’s drained even more colour and both her and Jenson are submitting to my “mate”. At this point I know I’m in too deep but it won’t stop me, never has Dean has always told me that my mouth is going to get me in trouble at one point. “I’m your soon to be Alpha little mouse and you’ll treat me with respect get down on your knees and submit to me”he growled violently. I look in my friends direction then look back at my so called mate, thinking this must be some kind of joke, I don’t care if his rank or that he’s an alpha it’s the way he’s speaking to me like I’m dirt that’s angering me the most.“Look I’m gonna say this once and once only I’m not going to submit to some jumped up Alpha heir who likes to touch girls without their consent then have the audacity to speak to them the way you just did to me, I have more respect for myself come on Sienna we’re going home.” I pulled a still shocked Sienna from her seat, left the club and flagged the nearest taxi, this was not what I expected from the innocent girls night out. “What the hell was that Serena, you can’t act like that he could have killed you, oh no what are the consequences-”she screeched. I cut her off from her rambling because I really didn’t want to hear it “That was me sticking up for myself Sienna, men can’t just go around grabbing people like that and talk down to a woman for no apparent reason!.” She started again “But you don’t understand he’s the Alpha heir he can literally punish you anyway he sees fit, you need to apologise to him beg him and tell him you’re sorry!” I shoot her a small smile and just reply “He’s my mate” she looks like she doesn’t even know how to process it and honestly same, I’ve met my mate and he’s a d***………

It was silent for the rest of the journey home and when we got back Sienna went straight to bed shouting a goodnight over her shoulder. I sit there and contemplate my options about him he’s rude, has anger issues and clearly gets off on trying to put women in their “place” like he has control issues. It’s sad because all I can think of is reasons for me not to accept him when I haven’t gave him the chance, maybe I caught him on a bad night where he just wants to de-stress, but why didn’t he acknowledge the fact that we are mates should he be happy to have found his mate?I think out of all of it I’m just so confused I really don’t know what to expect out of this mateship. I decide to Facetime the guys and fill them in on what happened tonight, the first think Sammy mentioned was the dress and it set Dean off on a rant on how I don’t have to change myself, honestly it’s funny to watch them get like overprotective brothers over me it reminds me that no matter what happens here those two will always be my family. Dean and Sammy think I should see how it goes with him and what his intentions are and if it all goes wrong I can always go to there pack with them. I ask about where there from but they don’t really say anything much just that when I come down to see them I will know more then, it’s a bit cryptic I know but some packs like their privacy so I don’t think much of it. We say our goodbyes then I head to bed promising to call them again tomorrow and fill them in on how things go with my Dad.
