Alpha's Rejected Omega Mate

MALLORY I was sleeping on the bed when a deep voice whispered in my ear, “Mallory!” “Hmm,” I hummed and tried to push the figure away, but the person looming above me yanked a handful of my hair. “Ah!” I gasped. My eyes snapped open, and I saw who stood above me. He was Ace Lennox, the Beta’s son. “Ace… What are you doing here?” I asked him as I gazed into his honey-brown eyes. “Shush…” He hushed me by placing his thumb on my thin lips. “I came to see how you’re doing. It’s your 18th birthday tomorrow. Don’t you think you deserve a birthday gift?” he asked as he stripped off his white top. “What kind of birthday gift is that? Why don’t you wait until tomorrow to present it to me?” I asked him, but he shook his head and replied, “No, Mallory. You deserve to have the gift tonight. It’s very special, and I have been keeping it for you.” “What’s that?” I asked him, looking at his handsome brown face. Ace was the Beta’s son. Even as an Alpha’s daughter, I had lost my respect because I hadn’t shifted since I was born, while my younger sister, Sonia, had been able to shift since she was fourteen. Everyone in our pack looked up to Sonia while they overlooked me. Worst of all, Sonia seemed to bask in it and made it look like I was the bad person. I loved Ace and wanted to be his mate, but he barely spoke to me during the daytime. Most times he avoided me, and I wondered how he had managed to sneak into this room, and climbed on my bed. My room sat on the top floor of the magnificent two-story building that was the Alpha’s mansion, so it amazed me that Ace had gained access. “I want to give you a priceless gift, Mallory, but you must promise me that you won’t shout and that you will endure it,” Ace said as he removed his trousers. I gulped hard at the sight of his full, broad chest—his strong, masculine abs—and I felt the urge to touch him. I knew Ace was going to be my fated mate tomorrow, and I wondered what the birthday celebration would even mean for me, since my father didn’t like me. “I want to fụck you, Mallory. Just don’t shout, all right. I want you as much as you want me,” Ace said, his brown eyes glowing in the night. “All right,” I agreed. At that moment it warmed my heart to see that Ace wanted me. I knew everyone in the pack looked down on me, but seeing that I had someone who didn't made me happy. “I know we are going to be destined mates. I want you, Ace,” I told him, caressing his chest. He brought his face closer to mine. Ace kissed my lips hungrily. He was twenty-one, and many girls in our pack crushed on him. Even Sonia, my younger sister, hoped that by the time she turned eighteen she would become Ace’s mate. Sonia and I were only a year apart. My father had married her mother after my mother died giving birth to me. We were half-sisters, and my father had taken another Luna to help protect our pack. My mother had been an Omega who happened to be my father’s true fated mate. When I was born, the pack doctor told my father that I was an Omega too—a weak link in the pack—which disappointed him. To make the whole matter worse, I was unable to shift like the rest of our pack members. I was short and not as tall as Sonia. She was tall, light-skinned, and very beautiful. I wasn’t a dwarf, but I was of average height and nowhere near as tall as her. It hurt me that no one wanted me, but seeing that Ace wanted me—and knowing he was my mate—I agreed to make love with him, hoping he would give me the best birthday gift. Besides, tomorrow was my eighteenth birthday party. “Are you ready?” Ace asked now that he was fully naked on my bed. I swallowed hard, scarcely believing I was doing this with him. He had taken off my nightdress and left me completely naked on the bed with him. “Yes,” I moaned, breathless, as Ace prepared to thrust into me. The moment he crossed the bridge and thrust into me, I moaned and cried, yet he didn’t stop. Ace kept going until I was about to faint. “Damn it, Mallory! You’re so tight!” Ace growled as he continued, bringing his face to mine. “You’re mine,” he said, burying his face in my neck. Then he brought out his fangs and bit me. “Ah!” I groaned as Ace climaxed inside me. After a while he pulled out of me and licked the spot where he had marked my neck. “I have to go now, Mallory. Happy birthday,” Ace said. He kissed my lips and dressed in a rush just as I heard footsteps approaching my door. The door burst open, but Ace had already fled out the window. I wondered if he hadn’t broken his leg. My stepmother, Luna Lily, came in. “Mallory, what are you doing on the bed naked at this time of night? Were you the one moaning?” She marched up to the bed, yanked the sheet away that I had used to cover my chest, and glared at me. “Mallory, you bìtch! Who were you f*****g in your room?” she growled and dragged me by the arm, not minding that I was unclothed.
