Alpha's bride

’m so sorry Denelle, I do not desire you as much as I desire your sister Isabel” Denelle’s heart broke into pieces at the sound of that. All her life she had looked forward to being mated, getting out of her father’s house and finally having the love she has so much desired but now all she had dreamt of and looked forward to felt useless. “Why?… why don’t you want me?” “You are not your sister Denelle” Nothing seemed to be making sense to her. She had known Axel for the most part of her life, in fact they literally grew up together being by each other's side. Axel had been the only friend she was able to keep in the pack because everyone seemed to like her sister more. One would think that being an alpha's daughter would buy her some privileges but it was not the case for Denelle. She was seven months older than her sister but yet the alpha had placed Isabel ahead of Denelle. The criticism and condemnation from the alpha had spread round the park that no one had regards for her except from some few park members who genuinely liked her for being just Denelle, she thought Axel was amongst them but now she knew better than to assume that Axel was even with her because he liked her. “I thought you liked me” “I liked you as my friend” “But why?” “I’m only entertaining this conversation because you were my friend first” “You’ve still not said why?” “Here is why Denelle….. your scent is so weak and unimpressive, you can’t even fight for yourself when need be, nobody regards you in this pack despite being a direct offspring of Alpha Frederick but your sister has everything put together” She never thought Axel cared about how weak she was but now hearing him directly condemn everything she is as a person made the situation a little bit worse. “I am not Isabel because I can never be her but I thought you were amongst the few that didn’t care if I was her or not” “I reject you as my mate Denelle” Denelle moved back stumbling on a few rocks she hadn’t notice there before, it was like she was about to loose all her strength, her vision seemed blurry but the only thing on her mind was how to get to the heart of the pack without loosing consciousness on the way. As she struggled for breathe, Axel didn’t look bothered as she was no longer going to be his problem if she passed out or not. He never really liked her, he had always admired her sister who was way more prettier looking and everyone’s favourite. She possessed so much grace that it would be hard to look pass her whenever she comes out for pack meetings. Denelle was still there trying to catch some breathe before she heard some shuffling behind the trees. Now her senses could smell that they were not there alone, they have had company for the whole length of the conversation but she was just noticing the presence. Now she could not really blame Axel for saying she is so weak. If they have had company throughout the length of the conversation then the news of her being rejected will soon start flying round the pack and once more her father would have something to condemn her for. “Axel we have company?” He lets out a small chuckle, placing his left hand on his waist and the other free hand on his hair. “We have had company all along and you are just finding out now… how clueless can you be?” The shuffling continued again and soon the person behind all the shuffling appeared “Isabel” Denelle was shocked to see her sister, now she didn’t need to worry about who her father was going to hear the news of her rejection from because her very own lovely sister here would be happy to tell their father everything. “What are you doing here Isabel?” Isabel walked straight to Axel, placing her hands on his chest and him wrapping his arms around her waist. “I just came to make sure my man keeps to his word by rejecting you as his mate” She perks him on his cheeks making a foolery of Denelle. “Good job Axel” Isabel walks to where Denelle stood, bending slightly to match Denelle’s height placing her lips close to Denelle’s ears so Axel wouldn’t listen to what she is about to say. “Everything you think is yours I will make mine and I just started taking so get ready to lose some more of your treasured possessions” “I have nothing Isabel” “That is what you think until you loose everything” Denelle bent down to her knees crying, her head bowed down in a pleading position but Isabel couldn’t care less instead she kicked her sides making Denelle fail flatly on the floor. “Axel, I’m certain that we are done here” Axel seemed confused. “Are we just going to leave her here?” “Do you want me to carry her on my shoulders?” “We can’t leave her here alone, you don’t have to do the farting I can lift her myself” Isabel seemed angry because she didn’t expect Axel to still care about the woman whom he had just rejected to gain her attention. “Are we going to do this right now?” “Do what Isabel? Denelle has always being a friend even though I was just using her to get to you, if something bad happens to her here I’m not going to forgive myself” “So you are saying that you rather be with her than be with me who is giving you to opportunity to be recognized amongst other high pack members?” “That’s not what I am saying, she is unconscious we can’t leave her here” Isabel felt so irritated at the situation, she wasn’t expecting that Axel would still be interested in Denelle’s safety. Nobody cares for Denelle, not even their father. She huffed loudly and angrily “If we don’t leave here together, forget every chances of ever being with me”
