Rejected Alpha

#Frank's past

Naomi's POV

' Am I so unfortunate that much huh?' I asked no one in particular alone in my room, as I felt so much pain in my heart. Yes it is true that its been two years now since Frank left me. Life is so unfair to me. I was in love with Frank right from when I was fourteen, he was my brother's childhood best friend and supposed Beta. He was handsome with blonde cut hair, lean muscular body and blue eyes I loved. I never knew he was my mate till I was seventeen, but am sure all those times he knew cause he was nineteen and wanted to be near me most times. He didn't like seeing any boy with me and always gives excuses of being protective.

Frank and I were in a good relationship because everyone was in support of us. He was always a sweetheart and every sweet person have a bad past that changed them. It happened six months after our mating, I didn't want to wait any longer since as long as you are so sure that a person is your mate then you guys could mate. Frank was the son of my Dad's Beta, Philip Martins who had two daughters Faith and Fiona from his mate Freda after they had Frank. So Faith was already mated but the problem was that her mate was abusive which no one knew. Frank had suspicion but only told my brother, Mac. Sometimes signs of bruises were seen on her but she waved it off that they were part of love bites.

This so called love bites one day made her sick to the extent she was vomiting and bleeding. We then found out that she not only has been beaten or haven't been eating on a stable diet but she had a miscarriage too. Frank was so mad with anger that he went to confront Faith's mate at his home. They both got into a serious fight with Frank seriously beating him before my dad, Mac and Beta Philip all got there. They found Faith's mate already dead but Frank was nowhere to be seen. They tried tracking him for days but they couldn't find him whatever he used really hid his scent well. I was so worried and miss my mate even tried to mindlink him countless times but he blocked me off or anyone. I was getting devastated each day and when I thought I would lose it, I decided to take a run in the forest without my family knowing. I hadn't shifted yet since I wasn't eighteen but still I needed to clear my head. I walked slowly for awhile thinking when I smelt a hint of him before turning to face him. We looked into each others eyes with conflicting emotions.

'Why did you take off and why did you kill him?' I asked my voice low. 'I didn't mean to do it, I couldn't control myself...I'm sorry' he said moving closer to me, Instinctively I stepped a bit back with fear. He noticed my hesitation because I saw hurt on his face. I was supposed to comfort him not hurt him more.

'Where have you been? You blocked me from reaching you and you thought you were the only one affected Faith's situation' I attacked him with words. His face darkened at the mention of Faith. 'How is she?' he asked ignoring my questions. I paused 'She's better now...so where were you? ' I asked slowly and gently. He started feeling nervous suddenly, then I knew he was hiding something before I could ask again he shocked me.

'I, Frank Martins reject you Naomi Freeman' he said. My world started to crumble before my eyes 'Why? ' I asked. 'I'm sorry but I have to and I can no longer continue to be a member of this pack again...you already know what will happen if I come back' he said. He was right it was a law regardless of the fact that he was my mate he still had to face the court of our pack's elders which might be death penalty for him. I started to cry like cry badly and pleading with my everything to try to make him reclaim me back. 'So you rather reject me and go rugue than face the penalty? Why can't we just run together?' my voice was going to a whisper right now. 'I can't do that to you.You won't love the life, please accept my rejection' he said.' I can't, not now' I said. He still stare deep into my eyes and I stare back into his blue eyes while he started to retreat backwards. He was gone before my very eyes. I gave in to my knees and cried more, my heart was aching in my rib cage.
