Once Rejected Now Fated

Chapter4

Elena’s POV

I stand there without knowing what to say or think. Now, I was sure that this man before me was definitely a liar. He just had to be. There’s no way he’s my mate. Especially when I just got rejected by Alpha Devon who claimed to be my mate just yesterday. The painful memory was still fresh in my head, It hasn’t even been a full twenty four hours and I was having another mate?

What trick is the moon goddess trying to play at me?

“What proof do you have that you’re actually Alpha Wesley Leone Rossi?” I ask, arching my brow as I await his answer. There is no way I’m following a total stranger just because he claims to be my mate as well as a very rich and powerful alpha.

“I don’t have to proof anything to you. Come with me and you’ll see for yourself.” He shrugs. I stare at him for a while to see if there was anything about him that would make me disbelief him but there was none. From his looks to his outfit that was obviously expensive, down to his aura that could be felt irrespective of the fact that I didn’t have a wolf. He was definitely an Alpha werewolf and if he really is Alpha Wesley Leone Rossi, it means he is the king of the Alphas.

Goodness!

“Are you going to walk or do I have to force you?” His voice brings me out of my daze and ball my fist in anger.

“You’re not my mate.” I say with a stern look and he smirks, looking at me like I was a clown

“How do you know that? It’s not like you have a wolf.” He says, throwing my wolflessness in my face and I gulp loudly, lowering my eyes so that he doesn’t see the effect that statement had on me.

That was a really touchy subject for me.

He was right. I had no way of knowing if he was my mate or not. Hell, I wasn’t even sure if Alpha Devon was my mate or they just used that trick to get me to leave. Knowing Aliya, it’s possible that she was behind it. I also didn’t know if this overly handsome stranger before me was also my mate.

One thing was sure, my body definitely responds to him but that was just me being a hormonal adult. He looked like a piece of cake and who doesn’t like cakes? I had never had s*x all my life but it doesn’t mean I haven’t seen other people have s*x. I know how enjoyable it is and my body craves it most times. I guess you can say that was the only werewolf attribute I got – being horny sixty percent of the time. We were basically always on heat. If I was like that without even having a wolf, I wonder how it was for the others.

I open my mouth to tell him that I just got rejected by my mate yesterday which is why I know he is lying but I don’t want to give him another opportunity to mock and ridicule me, so I shut my mouth.

“I thought as much. Let’s go.” He says and grabs my wrist but I struggle in his grip, my small hand not standing a chance against his big ones.

“This is kidnapping!” I half-yell with wide eyes, my voice not coming out as strong as I wanted. I was scared of this man and I knew it, but I was doing everything in my power to not make it known.

“Okay then, Elena. Would you rather stay out here hungry and without a pack or come with me and be my Luna?” He stops fighting with me and lays down his proposal.

I wanted to ask how he knew I didn’t have a pack but it was quite obvious that I was a rogue, seeing as I had no food to eat for breakfast. No pack allowed a member to stay hungry.

My shoulders sag in defeat as I realize that he was actually helping me- a gift from the moon goddess, I’d say. I had nowhere to go and no one to turn to. Before me was Wesley Leone Rossi, the Alpha of the largest pack in the country and the richest Alpha presently, claiming to be my mate. He was basically offering a new life.

What choice did I have? He was my only hope of getting back on my feet and of course, getting revenge on Alpha Devon and my family for how they treated me. It doesn’t matter if he’s my mate or not. I’ll figure that out when I get a wolf – if I get a wolf. For now, he was my trump card. A powerful Alpha to protect and cater for me. If I accept his proposal, I’ll be his Luna. The Luna of the most powerful pack in the continent and every power I’d need to get back at my family will be at my fingertip.

I turn my head to him and take a few steps closer to where he stood before uttering the next words that sealed my fate.

“Okay, Alpha Wesley. I’ll be your mate but I have one condition.”
