Chereads / The Alpha's rejected mate / Chapter 5 - Complications

Chapter 5 - Complications

I walk down the halls and I catch a whiff of my rejected mates scent, I want to hold her close and protect her but I also hate the fact that she is weak, I hate weakness and she reeks of it , I roll my face in disgust and continue walking down the halls , I turn a corner only to run smack into her in another man's arms, my whole body freezes over in rage, no one should be touching her , she is mine , I own her, I say inside me but I quickly get myself in other and give them my most devilishly handsome smile .

" hey Belle, how's it going " I say, I can see her shaking and I take pride in this .

" fine" she mutters, the guy looks at her and holds her tighter, I growl quietly but I know my friends hear it as they are werewolves.

"so who's your friend "I ask her cause I needed to know the man who had the audacity to put his hands on my mate, she turns to look at him and shakes her head .

" I'm Jason " the already established human replied, " well Jason welcome to our town and our school " I say ,

" thanks, hey Belle let's get to class " Jason said and dragged Belle out of the house.

I watched them until they turned the corner disappearing from my sight, "wassup man, are you okay? I heard that growl and it wasn't friendly" Alec asked "stop asking stupid questions and walk" I snapped at him.

I was angry and wished the bond would fade already, seeing that pesky weak thing get under my skin was not thrilling, I needed to get laid and get laid now. I walked into my next class determined to call up one of my spare girls to work away all this tension.

Since I rejected belle, it has been torture living my life, no amount of hookups have been able to sate me. Now I'm wondering if it was a smart idea to reject her. I should have just kept her by my side as a side piece while I invest in searching for a fit Luna.

Me rejecting my mate worsened my relationship with my father as he already thinks I am unfit to be Alpha and now he thinks I'll be weak because I don't have my mate standing by my side. The council has been deliberating if I would be able to carry the responsibility of being Pack Alpha and while I know my father is putting in all the power and force he has to make sure my place is secured, I'm not so willing to just bond myself to a weakling.

After the class ends with me not understanding anything that was taught, I knew it would be useless to still stay in school so I intend to grabbed Alex and Ralph so we can ditch school together. Walking out of the classroom I run smack into my ex girlfriend that I've been trying to avoid, she smiles like a cheetah when she sees it's me she bumped into "hey baby, I've been trying to reach you but it seems like your phone isn't going through", I've been ignoring her for weeks and I know she's getting it somewhere else but she won't want to let go of the future alpha just because he doesn't like her anymore "I've been busy, I've had back to back meetings with my father to discuss pack business" I tell her because I needed her off my back a little bit more, "oh, that sounds super stressful, I can come give you a massage with a little bit of happy ending to relieve all that stress" she winked.

My problem with sherry is her constant need to be f**"Ked, it feels like that's the only thing she thinks about and one of the many reasons why I can never make her my Luna.

Alex and Ralph walked out just as I was planning on making my escape "sherry, it's been a while we saw you around" Ralph ever the busy body said, I've been dodging telling them that I'm done with sherry because for some reason they love her and since she's always been a mean girl, I wonder what the appeal was, I dragged both of them out as I bade sherry goodbye "goodbye sherry, it was nice running into you again, maybe we could hang out some other time" I say as I simultaneously drag my friends out of there, I need to get out of school ASAP because my head is about to explode.

Since my mum fell sick, it's been hard for me to process my feelings, my mum has always been my shoulder to lean on and the one to give me advice while my dad has always been the one to push me but now that my mum isn't around to blunt the effect of my dad's pressure, it feels like I'm constantly weighed down and me rejecting my mate definitely did not help ease the matter at all.

Walking to my car without paying much attention to what Ralph and Alex is saying I bump into another person, I really need to start watching where I'm going to, the scent hits me first before I see the face and I know instantly that it's the human that was touching my mate, getting my thoughts in order I immediately correct that to Rejected mate, but anyways she's still mine, rejected or not, I give him my cheshire cat smile because it always wins people over "uh, hi I didn't get your name that time, you were with Bella right?". The guy looks at me with distrust in his eyes and I immediately want to know what Bella has said about me to him, how would she even explain what happened to him, he's human and by rule is not privy to what happens in the werewolf world nor the pack doings "I'm Peter and me and my family just moved here" looking at him, I assessed his strength and flexibility gauging how much he could hold himself to in a fight, he was like an ant to me since my wolf's strength far surpasses even an adult male but if there's some I've learned it's never to underestimate anyone "well Peter, we.." I turn back encompassing Raphael and Alex "were just about to leave school for a bit, if you want you can come with and we'll show you around the city, I'm sure moving somewhere new can be daunting" he looked at me with critical assessing eyes before firmly rejecting "nah, I just came into school, it wouldn't do for me to start ditching from the first day" this shocked Alex into silence and Raphael into action "what the hell, do you know how many people would kill to get such an invitation in this school, do you even know who you're speaking with" He asked angrily, I held him back so he wouldn't do anything foolish, I had a plan for our new friend Peter and it wouldn't do to start putting bruises on him... just yet .
