《The Reject (COMPLETED)》Chapter 43: Marked (Part I).

Willow got off the bed, even though her body was still a bit stiff, she could still move, though it was difficult to do so. She headed towards Hunter, her eyes throwing throwing daggers at Hunter.

Hunter, who had been yapping in about Rowan stopped, his brows furrowing as he saw Willow walking to him.

Willow raised her hand and landed a slap on Hunter's face. "You're a scum." She said, menacingly. "Do you know that?"

Hunter's face morphed into a scowl, it looked as if he was trying to suppress his anger.

Willow, ignored his expression as she continued, "Just because you are a scum doesn't mean doesn't mean that everyone else is. Even though I haven't known Rowan for long, I know that he has his own morals. Even if I end up not being his mate, he wouldn't simply leave without any explanation."

Hunter's face was growing uglier after listening to every word uttered by Willow. "But would he leave his mate for you?"

Willow scoffed. "And why would I ask him to do that? Why would I ask for someone else's mate to reject her just so we can be together? Why would I wish my fate on her? Won't that stoop me to your level?"

"You—!" Hunter raised his hand I an arc as if he was going to slap Willow.

"Do you dare slap me?" Willow smirked as she flipped her hair which had been coving her collar, making Hunter freeze. Though she didn't want to do that, she didn't want to make use of the Goddess's power for her personal gain, but she was well aware that Hunter was the Alpha of one of the strongest pack in the world, she had seen his prowess when the Goddess had shown the future of what could have happened. She had also seen how he had fought with Rowan, who could kill thirty rouges.

"You—" Hunter stuttered. "You are—"

Willow knew that she was no match for Hunter, even more so when she didn't know how to use her own powers. "You're disgusting." Said Willow. "You reject me and here you come acting like you're making me a favour. Mate you say? My grandma said that she broke our bond, from its roots." Willow felt weird using the intimate term for the goddess, even though they shared the same blood, she still felt weird calling this newfound grandmother intimately. She felt that Hunter should know about the fact that they were mates no more, so that he would let her be now that they meant nothing to each other, there was no bond between them.

"Broke it?" Hunter whispered, looking dazed.

Willow furrowed her brows. "Isn't that what you wanted from the beginning? Haven't you already rejected me? I don't see why you're making a fuss now."

"No." Said Hunter, then he clutched Willow's shoulders, shanking her as he yelled . "No, it's impossible. You're lying. You are my mate, you belong to me and no one else. You're a liar!"

Willow pushed Hunter off her, surprisingly he stumbled back. He looked defeated as he kept on repeating "No."

With her heart running a marathon, Willow stared at Hunter. She tried to calm her heart as her eyes searched around for a sharp object, but she found none in the hospital room. She defences up. "You're crazy. You say that you're my mate, but do you even like me? Have you ever liked me?"

Hunter remained quiet, his head bowed low.

"No you don't, you've never thought about me, you ruined my life, do you know how scared I was to go to school? How it scared me that my mother would find out about me being bullied? And when you were having sex with someone, I would feel like I'm dying, I wished I was dead, just to escape the pain." Willow frowned at Hunter. "You only want me now because you can't bear the thought of me with someone else. But have yet you considered my feelings?"

Before Hunter could answer, the door opened. "Hunter." Triple exclaimed as she entered the door looking furious. "Why are you doing this?"

Willow sighed. "It's doesn't matter. You should leave now." She stepped back to sit on the bed.

"What's going on?" Triple said as she eyed Hunter and then Willow. "Why are you always after my mate?"

Willow smiled mockingly. "Sometimes I really pity you." She muttered softly, but her voice was carried over to Triple.

"Says the person who has the most pitiful life." Triple scoffed as she raised her nose in the air.

"Shut up." Growled Hunter making Triple flinch.

"You—"

"I'll break the bond with her, if you're willing to give me a second chance, I'll do anything." Said Hunter cutting Triple off.

Triple gasped, tears filling her eyes, the haughty woman gone in an instant.

Willow shut her eyes, she was so disappointed. "Will you?"

"Yes." There was no hesitation in his voice.

Triple who was standing beside Hunter staggered, clutching her stomach as she fell on her knees. "Hunter." She whispered as tears started rolling down her pretty face. "Do you care about me, at all?"

Hunter ignored her as his eyes stared deeply at Willow.

"Hunter, I'm pregnant with your pup." Sobbed Triple.

Hunter now flinched and looked away from Willow, still ignoring Triple. "We're done."

"Why?" Triple turned to Willow, when she got no response from Hunter. "Why are you doing this?"

"Why?" Willow smirked and crossed her legs as she sat back on the bed because she was starting to feel tired. Acting haughty, she scrutinised her nails and felt that they should be trimmed soon. "It might be because I'm very petty when I want to be."

"You are so evil." Sneered Triple.

"Woah," Willow scoffed. "You don't have the rights to say that." She couldn't believe this pair, she felt that they should both go and review all the deeds they did in the past year. Willow then wanted to keep her distance from both of them, scared that their attitudes would somehow rub on her. "Can you both leave now, I'm not interested in you Hunter and we're mates no more. I'm not one to hold grudges but if you come and disrupt my life once more then you're going to regret it."

"You can't do that." Hunter scrunched his brows, his mouth lifting into a frown.

Willow sighed, the haughtiness going away from her face, leaving a black expression on her face. "I'm not a saint, though I'm forgiving you, I'm not going to forget about what both of you did. I won't be giving you any second chance, you don't deserve it, even if you had still been my mate, I wouldn't have had given you another chance. I wouldn't cheat myself in this way.

"Even though you're sorry now, who knows what you'd do in the future, you did it once so you can also do it twice. So, I hope that you will both leave me and Rowan alone." She especially mentioned Rowan, in case Triple came to seek trouble. "You reap what you sow, since you both wanted to sever your bond with your mates and wanted to be together, since you thought that you were most compatible together."

Willow could see that Hunter looked troubled.with what she had said, but she felt no pity for him. Even Triple didn't look too good herself.

Willow had previously hated both of them after she had found the truth, but looking at them now, she felt nothing in her heart. She felt no hate, and certainly not love towards either of them, it must be because she didn't care about them at this point. Crying over what had previously happened would get her nowhere in life, she didn't want to be tied to them for some petty revenge.

After the couple left, she actually felt very light. She smiled as she laid down on the bed. She pulled the quilt other chin, but then her smile dropped. She suddenly grew worried about where Rowan could be.

As she sat up on the bed, she noticed from the corner of her eyes that the couple had left the door open. Willow sneered as she stared at the door, regretting not going forth with a revenge plan. Cursing Hunter and Triple, Willow headed towards the door to shut it, feeling lazy.

When Willow got back in the quilt she once again grew worried about everything the Goddess had said. She was sure that the Goddess hadn't mentioned anything about Rowan being her mate, but she hadn't denied it either.

Willow screamed in her pillow, frustrated with everything that was going on, frustrated at Rowan for not being here, she should just get this over with. She was sure that she could live normally even without Rowan beside her, yeah she could totally do it.

Willow wanted to cry, because she didn't want to let Rowan go! But if Rowan wasn't her mate, she would back up, though it would hurt her beyond repair, she wouldn't come in between them.

The door opened once again, Willow snapped her head up, ready to glare Hunter and Triple out, if either of them planned on returning. But thankfully it was the Royal Witch, Georgia.

As she was being checked up by the Witch, willow put forth her lingering question. "Where's Rowan?" Since no one would tell her where he was, she had to ask the witch.

"Prince Rowan?" Said Georgia. "I haven't seen him for weeks now, ever since he turned eighteen." She replied truthfully, unknown to the worry that was forming on Willow's face.

"Since his birthday? Did he—" Willow choked on her words. "Did he find his mate?"

"Mate?" Georgia frowned. "Aren't you his mate? I remember seeing you at the Palace, his highness had introduced you as his mate."

Willow bit her lips and lowered her head. Now she desperately wanted to find Rowan. "When will I be discharged?"

"You'll have to stay here for at least a week or two, to make sure that you're actually alright." Said Georgia.

"But I'm fine, really." Willow replied, even though her body did feel a little weak, she was still feeling better than the moment she had woken up. She could now walk and talk properly, and all this happening in one day of waking was pretty abnormal for a normal human, but she wasn't normal. "I really am."

"No can do, you have to stay here till you truly are. Even though you are a child of the moon, you still haven't embraced the power properly, so it's gonna take a while for your body to heal completely. So till then you're not allowed to leave." Georgia said sternly. "You are my patient currently and it's my job to make sure that my patients have healed completely before I can discharge them."
