《The Reject (On Hold)》Chapter 13

Luna. That position is the female counterpart from Alpha. Lunas are supposed to rule alongside their Alpha and become their partner.

I'm blessed by the moon goddess to have two mates and both of them are Alphas. But they choose another to rule beside them.

I was shattered and broken inside knowing that I'm rejected and unwanted by my own mates.

But I'm not going down without a fight and even still giving my mates chances to redeem themselves. I ask and ask if they're sure about their choice.

Rejecting the gift from moon goddess herself. I cave in and almost lose my wolf, my best friend ever since I was a little kid, my other counterpart.

But I rise, fought and win. They realise the mistake they have done and now, I'm hearing the words that I've been dying to hear.

From the moment I open my eyes and came face to face with those pairs of blue eyes, hearing that sentence was all I want.

However, it's too late. I've lost too much to just let them back in.

"So, will you stay?" Caesar ask with a voice full of hope.

"Will you become our Luna?" Claude adding in to his brother.

Hearing the words Luna makes my heart beat even faster. I could feel Sierra resurface.

Since Sierra and their wolves have a special connection, I expect her to be happy when they offer to accept us back.

But Sierra bare her teeth and growl towards them. Their human counterpart have messed up really bad to the point where Sierra wouldn't accept them back.

Knowing what I should do, I answer their question.

"I've given both of you many chances to accept me. Yet you rejected me again and again."

"You even insulted me by trying to make me your mistress. But I accepted the reality that my mates doesn't want me. I accept both of your rejection,"

"DID YOU SERIOUSLY THINK I'M THAT NAIVE TO JUST ACCEPTED YOU BACK?"

I scream at the top of my lung and the colour of my eyes started to change. My voice are doubled with Sierra's voice.

We haven't had our potion so some of our aura starting to leak. Sensing this, I quickly retracted my anger, my eyes started to change its colour back.

Shocked was written all over their face and I left their office with their mouth gaping open.

I run to my room like my life depends on it. Technically, it is. If all of my aura leak out, they'll know my identity and I'm basically fucked.

It takes a few minutes for the potion to work and I decide to stay in my room until the pack meeting start.

The bright light that come from my windows starting to dim and soon it disappear completely. Night time come signalling it's almost time for the event.

I strip myself from my clothes and head to the shower. Frankly, I dreaded having to attend this meeting. Especially after today's encounter with my ex-mate.

But I have to set things right, so I forced myself to get ready. I dry my hair and use a roller to make my wavy hair even more curly.

I continue with putting a light make up on my face and finishing it with a nude coloured lipstick. Finally, I put on my green dress.

It has a V neckline which and a slit up to my thigh. I put on a black heels and an earring to complete my look.

Once I'm ready I take a look at myself in the mirror. I feel pleased with the way I look.

I check the time on my digital clock that rest at my nightstand. Shoot! I'm too early. Getting ready would usually take a few hours but I finish earlier than expected.

I can't recall last time I listen to my music. So I lay down in my bed and putting on my earphone. I open my music gallery and hit shuffle.

Music is what I need right now. It can make my imagination go to places that I never visited before and feel various feelings.

Around 45 minutes later I hear Riley mind linking me.

"Edith, are you ready yet?"

"I am, meet you at the hall entrance?"

"No need, I'll pick you up in your room."

"Thanks, see you in five."

Cutting my mind link, I quickly take off my earphones and get up from my bad. I move myself towards the mirror and take one last look at my appearance.

My hair is a little bit messy so I quickly brush it with my finger. Some wrinkles cover my dress but not so much for it to be visible.

"My make up is also set and I'm ready to go." Talking to myself.

Knock knock knock.

It must be Riley! I open the door and Riley appear in front of me wearing a tuxedo.

"Ready to go?"

"Give me a second."

I quickly went back into my room, grab my phone and take a picture of him standing at the entrance of my room.

"Oi, what are you doing?"

"And send."

"Who did you send that picture to?"

"To Carol of course. She must be missing you a lot and we're about to go home in two days. Might as well give her a sneak peek at what's coming towards her."

I grin widely and teasing Riley. I can see his face starting to change into red.

"Awww is the big bad alpha blushing." I continue to tease him.

"I'm not blushing stop it, let's go now. We're going to be late."

I continue my laugh throughout our walk to the hall entrance and. But I suddenly stop after seeing Michelle in a white mermaid dress, escorted by my ex-mates on her side.

My ex-mates, they look so dashing in those tuxedo. Just like a prince that came out from a story book that I read once I was a little kid.

But sadly, they're not my prince. The three of us maintain eye contact, they also look astonished when they see me. Riley quickly dragged me into the hall breaking our eye contact.

Pretending that the image of my ex-mates standing beside Michelle doesn't bother me, I proceed to take a seat beside Grace and Riley.

Once I'm seated, I move my gaze down not wanting anyone to see how miserable I am. Riley and Grace must have noticed but they pretend not to notice.

Not long after, the banquet started and both of those Alphas started their speech. Their voice is like melody to my ear and my mind bring me back to the night where we met.

With their hot breath near my ear and neck. But soon I was brought back to reality after remembering how they rejected me.

In an instant, I harden my heart not wanting to re-live the pain I was feeling that night. I continue to listen to their speech and finally it's my time to go up the stage.

I stand up from my seat and walking towards the stage where my ex-mates and Michelle stand. I have face countless events where I'm needed to stand on a stage with lots of stares directed towards me.

By far, this one is the hardest. It feels like I was walking into my own trial where I will be judged by the whole pack.

With one final step, I finally arrived at the podium. My heart is pounding loudly and my breathing ragged. I'm nervous and I my mind is blank.

But Sierra help me by sending me comfort through our bond. Telling me that it's ok and no one is here to judge us. Instead, they're judging their Alphas based on our explanation.

I took one last deep breath before deciding to start my speech.

"Thank you Shadow Ridge's pack members for coming here tonight. I know that tonight's event is a long one so I will waste no time and get straight to the point."

"I would like to confirm that I'm your Alphas' true mate. But we have decided that it's best for us to went our separate ways." Countless whispers were heard throughout the hall.

"This decision have made solely by the three of us. Your Alphas have shared their dreams for this packs with me and they're even willing to sacrifice their mate for the sake of this pack."

"So please, respect your Alphas wishes. They have sacrifice so much just for the sake of this pack."

Finishing my last sentence, I harden my face not letting any emotion out. I've done my job as a princess, uniting this pack back together.

However, I didn't finish my job as a rejected mate. I should hate them for hurting me, I should let their pack fall apart and let them tear each other into pieces. I should be wanting revenge. Yet I can't.

I walk down the stage and take a look at my previous seat. Thinking I should get back there and just enjoy the rest of the event. But I don't think I could take it anymore. Therefore, I do the only thing that I know. I run.

I run like a mad man heading towards my room. Where I can let my tears and emotion run freely. I cried and cried even harder. Letting everything out.

I cry for my fate, for the things that have been happening to me. I wish that the moon goddess would have warned me in the first place. That my mate would rejected me.

But honestly it doesn't matter much. In the end, it'll be the same. I'll get my heart broken and there's nothing to stop it.

Maybe my mates were right, I am weak. I'm just pretending to be strong because I wanted to believe that I'm strong.

With that in mind, I finally fall asleep in my own tears.
