The Alpha's rejection 21~ Where I belong
Ariana I trudged to my room after a long day at work, wondering what Lewis had put in my room to make him act so mysterious. To my surprise, I found a bouquet of red roses on the bed with a box and a note. My heart began to pound as I approached the bed. Was it a gift? I wondered. I read the note first and I couldn’t stop smiling to myself like a fool. This felt like we were teenagers passing each other secret love letters. I can’t lie it was exciting. [Put this pretty dress on and meet me outside. I can’t wait to see how dazzling you look in it.] The note read and my jaws hurt from smiling too widely. How can such a serious man be so sweet and romantic at the same time? Opening the box, my eyes stung when I saw the red dress and black heels in the box. Oh gosh. I felt so touched. It’s not like I couldn’t manage to buy myself a dress but no one had ever done this for me. My eyes landed on the bouquet and I couldn’t help but pick it up and sniff it. I had no idea what do to wit
The Alpha's rejection 22~ An offer and a threat
Lewis “Sir, the people from the oil company have arrived and are in the conference room.” My new assistant Gerald reported through the intercom and I pinched my eyebrows. These guys from Kim’s holdings have been insistent on collaborating with us on investing in supplying fuel in this City. “Ok… give me a sec. I’ll be there shortly.” I instructed and picked up my phone to send my mate a text. [Hi baby, I know you’re busy but in case you want to see me at lunch, I will be in a meeting with some people from Kim’s holdings. I love you.] I put my phone in my pocket while smiling to myself. A week had passed since she agreed to be my girlfriend and things were going great. Although I haven't told her about my identity yet and I haven’t done anything more than kissing her much to Wesley’s annoyance. All he thinks about is marking his mate but he doesn’t get it that it doesn’t work like that for humans. We have to take things slow. ‘Hmmph… will anything change if you take things slow? We
The Alpha's rejection 23~ The one
Ariana I had to go back home alone today because I was told Lewis had already left the company. Strange he didn’t text me but I figured he must have been occupied with something. The past week since we officially became a couple has been amazing. Lewis made me feel loved and wanted. He was honest and always told me what he was up to. Although I had moved to his room, we had never gone past kisses. I don’t know why he wasn’t taking things to the next level but tonight I’m determined to make the first move. Smiling to myself, I entered the pin code and opened the door. Only to find Lewis smiling lovingly at a girl who was lying on his lap, feeding her chips. What the fuck? Alarm bells went off in my head as my heart clenched painfully. Anger surged through me and my blood boiled like a portion brewing in a witch’s pot. I saw red. Lewis looked up at me, his eyes widening and I cursed in my head. Of course you’re shocked.. You didn’t expect me to find you whoring around, did you?
The Alpha's rejection 24~ Humans
Lewis I left the room, licking my lips as I growled in satisfaction. Ariana was a delicacy… one I will dine on for as long as I live. It was my bad that I had forgotten to text her about picking up my sister but her jealousy seemed to have awakened something in her. Her eyes flashed green like she had a wolf, yet I can’t smell one on her. More so that darkness that swirled around her. It came with full force, suffocating those around it but since Ariana is my mate, it seems I was unaffected by whatever her abilities are. I had my suspicions about what she could be but I needed proper research to be sure. Since my sister and her mate are visiting, I would have to wait till they are gone to discuss my suspicions with Ariana and tell her the truth about supernatural beings. That way, it would be easy to find out about her origins. I walked into the sitting room and found Jack setting the table in the dining area while Tricia was relaxing on the couch as if she was a queen. I blame
The Alpha's rejection 25~ A call for help
Ariana "So where exactly is home?" I asked Lewis as we drove to work. His sister and her boyfriend had left to go home but they hadn't mentioned a place so I was curious. "It's farther from here… about a 9-10 hours drive. I'll take you there soon. Then you can meet the rest of my family." I heard him say. One of his hands was entwined with mine, resting on my lap, while he steered the car with the other. "Ok.. but what's the place called?" I probed. "Um… it's… um… in the woods. We live very far from town and that's where you will be living too, with me." I furrowed my brows, They lived in the woods? Were they farmers or they wanted privacy? And what did he mean by I'll be living there too? "Why would we live with your parents? Isn't the town fine? I don't think I can manage to live in the woods." I blurted out my thoughts and I saw his jaw tick. Did he really think I would leave my home? "Ariana… let's not be quick to make decisions. We can talk about it later." Lewis said
The Alpha's rejection 26~ Fears
Lewis I clenched my fists, the smell of blood hitting my nose when I pierced my palms with my claws. My heart ached, watching Ariana run away in tears. I wanted to go after her but I let her be. It wasn't time to tell her the truth yet. What she said confirmed my fears. She was so used to this place and it was selfish of me to want to take her away from the life she's always known. But would I give up on her because of that? Never. She was mine and I would move heaven and earth to be by her side. Heck, I would even give up my beta title just to be with her. But I will try to convince her… I swore an oath to protect my people as their beta and that's not something I can run away from. Going up to my office, I texted Ariana just to assure her that I wasn't abandoning her. 'Will mate refuse to go to the pack with us?' Wesley asked in my mind. I could sense the worry in his tone. For me, it was okay but as a beta wolf, he loved being in a pack. 'Don't worry… she's just scared of
The Alpha's rejection 27~ Find her
I was in denial. There’s no way Ariana would leave me just like that. She said she didn’t want to leave this place. Something must have happened. But as time passed, I was beginning to lose hope. I drove around the City, walking around, searching like a fool but she was nowhere to be seen. I even went to the fucker’s house and her former friend who boiled in jealousy after finding out Jace had come for Ariana. Wesley had gone quiet after I refused his request to lead the search. The only way my wolf can be in control is in his true form and I didn’t think the City authorities would appreciate a large wolf moving around the City. I groaned, my chest constricting as I looked at the time. 9 pm. I was on the verge of giving up. Was it worth it to look for her if she really chose her ex? I can’t force her to come with me if she doesn’t want to, right? My phone started ringing as I was rounding a corner, heading outside the City. I wanted to check if I could scent her leaving the
The Alpha's rejection 28~ Power
Ariana I woke up feeling weak, wondering when I had fallen asleep. The bed wasn’t as comfortable as it usually is, making me frown. I looked around, realization dawning upon me when I saw the different room I was in. My heart thumped loudly. Where was I? “... Lora the Alpha instructed me to take her to the pack. This was not what we planned.” My ears perked up, hearing voices outside. Jace? Was he the one who brought me here? Why? Who was he talking to? I wondered. “Oh forget about that old man. I didn’t plan on following his plan anyway. I’ll have her all to myself.” A woman’s voice reached my ears. “But she doesn’t even know what she is…” “Oh she will…that’s why I told you to bring her here.” I frowned, putting the pieces together as I recalled how I might have found myself here. ~Flashback hours prior~ I rushed out of the company and took a cab to the cafe that Jace was at, hoping he hadn’t done anything stupid. The moment I walked through the cafe doors, I was sudd
