Rejected Then Un-Rejected (1st in Rejected Souls Series)

New and Improved

Aries POV

I feel someone trying to shake me awake. "Arie wake up." I don't answer

"Arie wake up!" They groan frustrated. I try pushing them away.

"No." That is my smart reply.

"Arie wake the hell up you lazy bum!" Jules screams settling me and making me fall off the bed. I knew it could only be Jules, because his the only one that had the audacity to wake me up.

"Ouch!" I get up rubbing my butt that now hurts. I wouldn't be surprised if something broke inside.

"What the f**k Jaja." I give him the evil eye.

"I was trying to wake you up to tell you that breakfast is ready downstairs" He smiles innocently.

Are you kidding me! "JULES! That is the reason you woke me up!"' I say angrily. “You know I love my sleep.” I glare at him annoyed.

"Duh." He gives me the face. "Well that and we are going SHOPPING!” He exclaims happily. “Plus, it's you and James two-year anniversary remember." He said winking.

I smile wide.

It has been two years that I have been away from my family. I call my dad once in a while, but that's it. He always says the others meaning my brothers, mother, and of course Kyle, want to talk to me, but I always say my goodbyes then hang-up not letting him finish. I don't even wait long enough for the people to snatch the phone from him so they could talk. Whenever they succeed, I hang up once they say my name. I'm kind of glad my dad didn't know where I was still, or they would all know. I shook my head trying to get that train of thought out of my head process.

"I know!"  I said ecstatic. "I can’t believe it’s been this long. I know I say that every month but sue me!" I said laughing.

"You deserve it babe, now come on before they eat everything! I thought I would be a good friend and come and get you before there was nothing left." He pouts.

Isn't he sweet?

"You could have brought me breakfast in bed." I stick my tongue out.

He snorts. "Girl I ain't your hubby. James may do that to you, but don't expect it from me." He brushed back his pretend long hair.

"But you're my best friend." I give him my full pout that nobody can resist.

He gasped. “Wow I'm sorry, I should have brought you food then rubbed your feet awake!”

I started smiling happily.

“Just kidding your puppy dog face isn't working on me." He said sarcastically.

Did I mention that he isn't like everybody else?

"Ass-hole." I flip him off.

"Oh hun you know I like it there." He said winking.

"Whatever let's go." I laugh while putting on black skinny jeans and a white tank top.

"Race you downstairs!" I push him on the bed and start running.

"Cheater." I hear him yell.

"That's the best friend love push!" I yell back still running.

While turning the corner to go downstairs I scream when I crush it to a wall, but this wall is radiating warmth. I look up and find a smiling James. He puts his arms around me and I smile brightly.

"James! Happy Anniversary!!" I said happily.

I jump on top of him wrapping my arms and legs around his tall and muscular frame, while burying my face in his neck.

He chuckles. "Hey babe! Happy Two-Year Anniversary. By the way, I love you very much my beautiful Angel." He kisses my hair then starts placing kisses all over my face.

I giggle loving it. What? I may be an Alpha, but he was my man.

"I love you too. Thanks for being the most amazing boyfriend in the world." I look up at him with a smile stretched across my face. I start to lean in slowly and he does the same. When our lips are about to touch our special moment is ruined by none other than Jules.

"Seriously guys! I'm still in the same room! Save all your lovey dovey s**t for later!" He complains trying to look angry, but not succeeding.

"You’re just jealous that I got to him first." I make one of those snobby faces with my nose in the air. He knows I'm only kidding.

Jules chuckles.

"Maybe. I bet he would have been all over me if he never met you. Right Cutie?" He asks James, but doesn't stay around to hear the answer, instead he walks off winking at him and pinching my butt.

"Ouch." I rub it with one free head while the other is still around James neck for support.

James kisses my nose then sets me down. "Come on babe. Let's go get already for our date."

“Wait, what about my breakfast?” I pout already smelling the delicious food emitting from the kitchen.

“I saved some for just you, while you get ready, I’ll bring it up to you.” My stomach and I were happy with that answer.

I let him pull my hand.

"Where are we going?" I ask anxious to know.

"It’s a surprise." He winks at me while heading up the stairs that me and Jules just came from.

"Babe. You know I hate it when you do that!" I said giving him my best pouty face, which he almost falls for, but then we hears a crush in the kitchen and a person yelling sorry. That snaps him out of it.

I groan. Thanks Jules.

"Nope." He releases my hand then he practically runs up the stairs.

"Fine if you don't tell me then I will keep bugging you till you tell me, or we get there. Oh, and I won't like it." I hurry to catch up with him.

He looks at me and starts laughing. "Babe you always end up loving what I surprise you with.

"Whatever." I say grudgingly crossing my arms.

"Awe babe don't be like that." He walks back to me and grabs one of my hands kissing it. He starts walking us up to our room that we've been sharing since I came here.

The house had enough rooms where nobody had to share a room with another person, but James insisted we share one saying it was the biggest one, so it was fit for an alpha, but he also loved it and didn't want to leave it.

He basically tricked me, and I fell for it, not that I was complaining. We didn’t get to sleep with each other till after a year of dating, and when I was ready.

We got to our room and I went to the bathroom and took a shower. After I finished I curled my hair and put make-up on deciding on making my face sexier than normal.

Yes, I loved myself.

I finished putting on foundation, eyeliner, eyeshadow, and mascara. Thank goodness my bathroom has a secret entry way connected to my walk-in-closet. It made everything easier. When I reached my closet, I started looking for a dress and settled for a Purplish-pink tight dress with black high heels with a matching purplish-pink/gray handbag.

I guess shopping with Jules will have to wait.

I walk out of the closet and see James looking mouthwatering and so yummy. He has on black dress pants and a blue dress shirt that showed his muscles. He was trying to fix his tie.

I clear my throat to try to get his attention, since his back is turned from me.

He turns to me and I swear his jaw drops to the floor. There is lust, need, and adoration in his eyes. He walks super-fast to me and wraps his arms around me and starts nibbling my ear and neck. When he reaches my collarbone, he lets out a growl. I let out a little moan, which turns him on even more judging by the stick poking my thigh. I get control back and push him away knowing we would never leave once we started.

"Come on lover boy. Take me to my surprise before we forget." I try to be stern, but my voice comes out sounding husky. I clear my voice.

He groans and tries coming close to me, but I give him a disapproving look, which he ignores completely coming to give me a brief kiss then holds my hand and we walk out of the room then downstairs.

When we reach the end of the stairs I see my pack whispering quietly that I couldn't really hear them, and I have great hearing. Some were arguing about something, while the others were talking excitedly. Someone saw me and James and pointed to us, which made everyone stop what they were doing. Three-hundred pairs of eyes looked at me. My pack has grown immensely. Now I have three-hundred and fifty people in my pack, and we have come to be one of the strongest packs in the world. Other packs don't even know that a woman runs this pack, they just assume it’s a male, because of how strong I have made my pack.

All of us can fight and don't take bull, but we are not a mean pack. It's not like I'm a dictator, I let my pack help me out. We help each other out and that is what has made us strong. Most packs like us, but we have developed some enemies. But overall I'm proud of my pack.

Finally Matt who was a big-time flirt spoke. "Wow, looking hot alpha!" He winked eyeing me up and down.

James growled possessively shutting him up.

I rolled my eyes playfully, but I gave his hand a squeeze letting him know I was all his.

People started talking, saying how gorgeous I looked and how we made the cutest couple. I blushed, while James smirked.

James grabbed my arm that he had let go once again to lead me towards the door. We waved goodbye to our pack and left for the date.

Wait minute. They looked a little suspicious. I will grill them on that later. For now, I will put this on the back of my mind, so I can enjoy the me and James special night.

True to my promise I bugged the hell out of him till we got to the place, which was a park the one with playgrounds. There was a field where he walked us to and led down our picnic and lite some large thin candles. It was truly beautiful under the stars on a half moon. This all created a romantic atmosphere. When we finished eating and making out heavily, we packed our things and left to go back home.

When we arrived at our house that was bigger than a castle, since James taught me to build and we built more of it, James parked his black Toyota and came to open my door.

I thanked him for being the true gentleman that he was.

We walked to the front door of the house and he spun me around kissing me so passionately that I practically melted in his arms. After our mind-blowing kiss that made my toes crawl, he opened the door and we walked inside the house. It was pure black that we couldn't even see with our wolf eyes.

All of a sudden everybody jumped out turning the lights on.

"Surprise!" They held a banner saying Happy Two-Year Anniversary to Arie and James!

How sweet! I had tears in my eyes as I looked at my pack/family then James who was behind me holding me in his arms. These two years with them showed my how a true pack operated and loved each other. I couldn’t have asked for a better pack to lead.

I leaned back on James and looked up at him smiling, he returned my smile with happiness shining through his eyes and a knowing expression. Everybody came to hug us, then left us to go upstairs. Once we were alone James grabbed my hand and lead me upstairs where we made rough mind-blowing love all night long, till we collapsed on the bed late and fall asleep with him holding me in his arms.

The next day I got woken up by someone yet again screaming my name. I sat up on my elbow and looked around the room. I saw me and James clothes scattered all over. My hair must look crazy to, I thought I touching it, while making a face. I looked down at James and smiled so big it out shone the sun.

            I licked my lips as I remembered last night’s shenanigans and felt the soreness between my legs.

"Arie!" Their goes that voice again, which I now recognized as Jules. Only he would wake me up like that. He was standing at the bedroom door poking his face in.

"What?" I asked kind of loud settling a sleeping James who opened his eyes and smiled widely at me.

“Hi honey?” He brings my face close to his and kiss’s my lips.

Our moment is ruined once again by Jules. "Come downstairs! We have visitors.”

I growl. "Who is here so early in the morning!" I ask James who shrugs his shoulders, but then has a frightened look on his face.

"James." I drag out is name. "Is there something you forgot to tell me?"

"Arie get your butt down here!" Jules yells again probably getting irritated.

I look at him.

"Can you shut-up! I'm coming for crying out loud!" I start to get irritated as well as my wolf who didn't like people yelling or commanding her.

"And it's not the right come." I yell looking at him dead in the eyes.

"Gross." He scrunches up his face closing the door.

Serves him right. I turned to James. "We will continue this conversation later."

"But-." He tries to speak grabbing one of my hands.

"I said later James. Let me go see what these people want first." I say with finality pushing his hands away as he nods.

I go take a quick shower then go to my closet and pull out blue skinny jeans with a black blouse. After I'm done dressing and putting on eyeliner and mascara I head downstairs leaving a frightened looking James in the bed.

I reach downstairs after using my super speed, which all Alphas have, and I gained when I decided to be one.

When I got to the last stop my mouth hangs open in shock looking at the people, but I recover quickly.

"Well if this isn't an unexpected surprise." I smirk.
