Chapter 2
1092 Words
Emory felt her stomach churning with excitement as a smile appeared on her face, but it was short-lived as a female stepped out of the bathroom with a towel around her chest and another wrapped on her head.
“ Baby.” The lady walked towards Alpha Kaine and pecked him on his cheeks.
Emory felt her stomach twist in jealousy and hurt.
Since she turned eighteen two years ago, she had always prayed desperately for her mate to be someone from a different pack, due to the hierarchy and power discrimination in the Hallows High Pack.
But seeing that it was the Alpha of her pack, she felt like the moon goddess was playing games with her fate.
Despite her fantasies and Cinderella dreams, she knew what was going to happen in reality.
Rejection.
It was a sure fact for her, because no one, not even the moon goddess could make Alpha Kaine make her his Luna.
“ Emory?” Louisa’s face turned sour as she stared at Emory whose eyes were locked with that of Alpha Kaine.
“ Babe, can you stop staring at this b***h!” Louisa lost all cool and couldn't help but yell.
She felt like Emory was going to take Alpha Kaine away from her.
After a few more seconds, Alpha Kaine broke eye contact and turned to kiss Louisa on her lips.
The kiss was so deep and intense that Louisa released a moan during the kiss.
As Emory watched them, she felt her chest tightened, making it hard for her to breath.
It was just a minute ago she found out about her mate and the next, he was already with another woman.
Such an expensive game the moon goddess was playing on her!
They both broke the kiss, their lips making a sound as they broke the kiss.
Their lips are red and plumpy, causing a lump to form in Emory's throat.
Her palms were all sweaty as the hold on her rag clothes tightened.
“ I heard both of you say mate, don't tell me this dirty annoying b***h is your mate?”
Hatred and disgust cloted Louisa's voice as she spoke.
“ You know her?” Alpha Kaine squinted his eyes.
“ Of course! She's my annoying stepsister.” Louisa replied as she threw a deadly glare at Emory.
If glares could kill, Emory would have been long dead and forgotten.
“ Oh, your step sister whom you always talk about?” A sudden rush of hatred cloted Alpha Kaine’s voice as he asked.
“ Yes.”
“ Interesting.”
He smirked and took slow steps towards Emory who felt a sudden rush of Adrenaline surged through her body.
“ What's your name?” He asked, his face just an inch away from Emory's.
“ Kaine! You can't accept her! What about me?” Louisa asked, her voice quivering as tears threatened to leave her eyes.
Alpha Kaine ignored her, his gaze never leaving Emory's.
“ E…Emory”
“ Such a slow witted fool. Can you be more audible?” His eyes darkened as he spoke.
“ Emory.” She straightened up and spoke more audibly.
“ Emory,” he started, using his index finger to trace her earlobe, causing Emory to freeze.
“ What makes you think I will accept you as my mate? You're not only an omega, but one without a wolf and also gullible and slow witted.” Alpha Kaine smirked and stepped away from Emory.
She bit her lips as the sudden warmth from his index finger suddenly disappeared.
“ But…. I'm your mate.” Emory gathered the courage in her to speak up.
“ So? I'm sure you know how this pack works, so I can't and won't bend the rules just to be with a slow witted fool like you.”
Emory felt a stung in her chest as he said those words to her.
“ So, you will choose my step sister over me?”
Emory asked, her voice quivering and her eyes holding gaze with that of Alpha Kaine's.
Deep within her, she was hoping desperately that he would say the opposite of his obvious answer, but he shattered the impending hope she had left.
“ Yes of course. She's strong with Alpha blood and suitable to be my Luna.” He said and grabbed Louisa by her waist.
“ What….what about me?” Emory couldn't hold in her tears again as they dropped freely from her eyes.
“ I'm going to reject you of course, except you be my s*x slave.”
“ Never! I will never become your s*x slave.” Emory shook her head, sniffling.
“ Do you really think I will let you be his s*x slave? Remember, you're a cursed b***h! You killed your mother when she was birthing you.”
Louisa stepped forward and grabbed Emory's cheeks, digging her manicured nails into her flesh.
Emory was the older one.
She was older than Louisa with a year.
She was just a year old when her father brought home Louisa’s mother, who was already pregnant.
“ Let me go.” Emory gritted her teeth, her eyes burned with anger and hatred.
“ And if I don't, what will you do? You don't stand a chance against me, Emory. You will always be my slave and beneath me no matter how hard you try.”
Louisa said, a wicked smile dancing at the corners of her lips.
“ I will kill you myself, Louisa!”
Emory gritted, causing Louisa to let go of her chin and burst into a thunderous laughter.
“ You will kill me? I would love to see you try.” She smirked.
“ I will poison you to death, I swear on the moon goddess.”
Emory had no idea what she was saying but she was just too angry to hold back herself.
“ I swear on my late father's Alpha throne, if anything happens to Louisa, you will be as good as dead.” Alpha Kaine warned.
“ I, Alpha Kaine Zayne, reject you, Emory Hardin, as my mate and Luna of my pack.”
He let out those words like they were the most simplests words ever, whereas for Emory, it could claim her life due to the pain of rejection.
“ Arghhh!”
Emory fell to the ground, clutching her chest tightly as the pain became more severe as each second passed by.
“ Go f**k yourself b***h!”
Louisa glared and left the room after getting dressed with Alpha Kaine.
