Rejected by the Alpha

Chapter 2

Chapter 2

{Leo's P.O.V.}

"Leo!" I heard someone call my name just as I was about to enter my house. I turned and saw that it was my best friend, Alex. He was going to be the future Beta.

"What?" I responded.

"Have you seen my sister?" He asked. I frowned, Alex was never worried about Eden. No one was except maybe her parents.

"No, why would I have?" I asked, laughing, but on the inside, I was worried. After rejecting Eden, my wolf, Ethan, stopped talking to me. I knew he wanted his mate, but I couldn't be with her! She was weak, the runt of the pack. She wouldn't be able to become a good Luna.

"I don't know, my parents are freaking out because she left," he sighed, rubbing his hand on the back of his neck.

"What do you mean, 'she left,'? Where'd she go?" I asked, worried.

"She left a note saying that she was leaving and some other stuff, like how she couldn't handle the bullying anymore," he said, looking guilty. "She also said that the reason why she finally decided to leave was because her mate rejected her, but she didn't say who he was," he said. My wolf growled at me.

'This is your fault,' he growled.

'You don't think that I know that?' I growled back. He blocked our connection. I knew it was all my fault that Eden left. I made a fucking mistake, and now she's gone. My mate.

"God, I can't believe I've been such a bad brother to her. I'm supposed to protect her, not hurt her," Alex said, roughly running his hands over his face. "Well, I gotta get back to my house, see you later," he said as he jogged off towards his house. I quickly opened the door, slamming it behind me. I ran up to my room before closing and locking the door behind me.

"Fuck!" I yelled, thankful my room was soundproof. I punched the wall, unfortunately leaving a hole. I paced my room, thinking. What am I going to do?! I have to find her, get her back. I need her.

There was a knock on my door, pulling me out of my thoughts.

"What?" I growled as I opened the door. I saw the pack slut, Selene, standing there with a flirtatious smile on her face.

"Hey baby," she purred, trying to sound sexy, but she sounded more like a dying cat. She trailed a hand down my chest, biting her lip. Before, I would have fucked her, but now I just wanted my mate. I want Eden. I grabbed her hand, flinging it down to her side, making her frown.

"Stop," I growled.

"What? You've never told me to stop before," she stated.

"I don't care, now get the fuck out," I gritted out. She huffed before stomping out. I slammed my door before walking into my bathroom to take a shower. I thought about what had just happened in the last few hours as I stood under the warm water.

~Flashback from a few hours ago~

I was running through the forest in my midnight black wolf form. That's when it hit me. The most intoxicating scent of vanilla and roses filled my nose.

'Mate!' My wolf, Ethan, yelled in my head. I immediately started running towards the scent. I shifted into my human form before pulling on a pair of shorts. I crept towards her until I saw who it was. Eden.

She was beautiful with her toffee colored hair, and when she turned, I was captivated by her piercing green eyes. But I knew I wouldn't have her. She was weak, the runt. Not capable of being a strong Luna.

She took a step towards me, but I growled at her, making her freeze in place.

"Leo?" She said timidly. I just stared at her. "Leo," she called again, softly.

"What?" I sneered.

"W-we're mates," she said.

"No, we're not. You're weak, and ugly, and will never be fit to be a Luna," I growled, making her flinch. She made another move to get closer to me.

"But-" she started, but was cut off when I slapped her, sending her flying into a tree before falling to the ground. My wolf howled in pain, seeing that our mate was hurt.

I glared at her as I stalked towards her, making her scramble backwards until she hit another tree. I saw a bruise forming from where I hit her, and I felt a pang of guilt.

"Don't you dare tell anyone that we're mates," I said, then paused before speaking again. "You know what? I think I'll just reject you. I, Leo Carter, Alpha of the Midnight Pack, reject you, Eden Rose, as my mate." She screamed in pain just as I finished the rejection. I felt a pain in my chest, making me clench my jaw hard. I left her there, screaming in agony as my wolf howled in pain.

~end of flashback~

I yanked my hands through my wet hair, pulling hard. God I'm such a bad mate.

I shut off the water and quickly dried off before pulling on a pair of boxers and getting into bed.

'You'll regret rejecting her,' Ethan said.

'I know,' I responded before falling asleep.
