I Rejected You, Alpha

AIDEN’S POV

—

She’s staring at me with hatred , hatred that I don’t want her to feel , but how could I convince her otherwise if she won’t listen to me ?

“You say that , but…” , “But nothing Eleia .” I cut her off , “Did I give you any reason to not trust me ? What did I do ?” My eyebrows scrunch together , but I hate that my face is showing what I feel .

“The way you treat me is exhausting . I want to be loved and you keep me at arms length .” She snaps , looking like she’s losing her mind slowly .

Her green eyes are flicking everywhere as she tugs at her dark locks .

“Hey .” I cup her cheek , trying to draw her attention to me .

“I don’t keep you at arms length Eleia , I am letting you rest .” I frown , “I don’t care if it’s Regan’s , the important thing is , it’s yours and I don’t want to put you or it in harms way .”

I sound a little too cheesy , almost like Stefan , but it is sort of his words that I am using , but I do agree with it .

I can love any child and some day , this baby would be ours .

Our to have , ours to raise , ours to love .

I love the unborn pup already just because he or she is apart of my mate .

“Do you promise ?” Her eyebrows raise , her eyes glassy , the whites of her eyes are slightly red , her long dark lashes wet , most of them sticking together .

“I promise .” I drag my thumb over her bottom l*p that is curled into a pout .

“I love you Eleia , I love this little rascal growing inside of you .” My hand drags down to her bump and her chest shakes as she sniffs .

“I love you too .” Her smile is weary as a single tear rolls down her cheek .

“I am going to claim that pack and no kids under the age of eighteen will be hurt , I promise that too .” I roll my eyes and she chews on her bottom l*p , nodding .

“Thank you .” She smiles , “And we will have new members joining us .”

“Do you think they could be trusted ?” I ask and she shrugs , “I don’t know .” I mutter , “They already know that Regan is dead , they would feel it .” She explains and it makes sense .

It’s best if I go now .

“Then I will see you later and I promise that I will make it up to you .” I smile and her lips pressed into a thin line tells me she is unhappy about everything I am saying .

“Okay ?” I ask and she just nods .

I lean forward , pressing my lips to her temple then her nose and then her mouth .

“Get rest , tonight is going to be busy .” I k**s her again before standing , my eyes stay on her and I watch her cheeks heat , her lips curling up into a smile .

I leave her in the room , finding Stefan and Rosie in the living room as I come down stairs .

“Stefan .” I call out to him and he sighs , “I’m coming .” He stands up from the couch , kissing Rosie before joining me as we head to the cars parked outside .

I watch as the men come out with a box and I grin as they halt in front of me .

I open it , smiling at Regan’s lifeless eyes , his head sitting in the box like a trophy .

“Maybe I should stuff him and hang him on the wall in the dungeon .” I grin , making Stefan snort .

“Would be an example .” He mutters and I click my tongue and the man loads the box into the trunk as we get in .

Five black SUV’s drive behind me and Stefan .

“Knock knock .” I grin and Stefan turns to look at me with a raised brow , sighing , “Who’s there ?” He asks bored .

“Not Regan because he can’t even knock .” I chuckle and he tuts , shaking his head in disappointment .

I thought it was funny .

“You shouldn’t make jokes dude .” Stefan chuckles , staring out of the window .

“I can and I will .” I keep my chin up , smirking .

Today is the day it all ends .

Arriving at the gate of his pack , there aren’t even guards and we speed through , stopping right by the gate and we climb out .

One of my warriors grab the box from my trunk and I grin all we way to their pack house .

A swarm of people come out , the first person a man , Regan’s father , the next his mate , Regan’s mum .

“What did you do ?” He seethes and I halt in my steps , Stefan standing slightly behind me to my right .

“What did I do ?” I cross my arms over my chest , standing tall as his father inches closer .

“I apologize , but this pack in now mine .” I snap my fingers and my warrior standing to my left drops the box and Regan’s head rolls out .

His mum lets out a heart breaking scream , “No !” She runs forward , her eyes dark as she charges at me , but I don’t move until she’s right in front of me .

My hand snaps forward and my fingers curl around her throat as I lift her off the ground .

Her hands grab my wrist , fear in her eyes as well as darkness and sadness .

Holding her up in front of me , I glance past her at Regan’s father .

The proud man who encouraged his kid to kill a little girl .

He steps forward and I c**k my head at him , “Are you really going to come at me while I have her life in my hand ?” I ask , squeezing her throat and she heaves as her air is cut off .

Her legs kick frantically , but with my arm stretched out straight , she is nowhere close to touching me .C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Regan’s dad halts , his jaw tensing more and more the longer he stares at me .

“Let her go .” His voice shakes and I laugh .

“Then kneel , because I beat your alpha , I killed him and now this pack is mine too .” I seethe and his eyes squeeze shut before he kneels .

I glance back at Stefan as I let his mate’s feet touch the ground .

“Now .” I mutter and he nods , striding forward and he grabs Regan’s dad by the throat and I walk the mother back to next to her mate .

I glance at Stefan and we both nod before we slip the silver knives out of our back pockets and slice their throats before stabbing them in their hearts .

The instantly drop , falling onto one another while everyone around us gasp .

“So this is how it’s going to go .” I smile , looking around and everyone’s attention is on me .

I never felt this kind of power , the authority to make them do what I want is amazing .

The fear is delicious .

“Eighteen and under , I want them on one side and the rest on the other side .” I demand , flipping the knife between my fingers .

Some mothers move with their children to the kids side and I hate to be the monster , but they aren’t staying .

Everyone is gathered quickly in two groups and I stride over to the kids , some moms pulling their children into their arms .

“I do apologize , but you need to go with the rest .” I keep a straight face .

“No , these are our kids .” The one screams , sounding terrified .

“I don’t care . They will have better lives with you gone .” I snap and on that note , the rest of my warriors start to slaughter the rest of the adults .

Some run , some scream and some tries to fight back but fail .

“Stop !” A girl comes out , her eyes fiercely dark and I turn my gaze to the girl coming out of the pack house .

“Oh , hiding – are you ?” I grin and she stomps down the stairs , striding towards me .

“This is my pack , what are you doing ?” She snaps fearlessly , her canines extended .

“Luna , I presume ?” I sarcastically bow my head and she inches closer , being braver than Regan ever was .

“Do not speak to me like that .” She snarls and I want to laugh .

I could tell she was an alpha’s daughter .

“Who’s your father ?” I beam and she snorts , shaking her head .

“None of your business .” She shrugs , acting like it might all blow over and I would back away just because she’s still standing .

“It is , this is now my pack and you are demoted . But I will give you an out if you want , you could run along and head home to dear old dad .” I grin , making her take heavy breaths as I inch closer .

“I am not going anywhere , but you are . This pack is not alone and I will fight you to save them .” She seethes , but she missed the slaughter and I can’t help but laugh as I look around .

Her gaze follows mine and when our eyes lock , there are tears .

“Poor thing .” I sigh , c*****g my head .

“If you want to fight , let’s fight .” I hold the knife in my hand , smiling at her .

“You are the devil .” She seethes before shifting and I stare at her brown wolf , rolling my eyes at her small size .

“Come on .” I challenge her and she charges at me , running full speed and when she launches at me , I stap her in the chest as I slide underneath her , a painful cry escaping her before she falls to the floor , shifting back to human , choking on the b***d coming out of her mouth and I stand , walking over to her .

“You should have taken the out . You are not trained .” I shrug and she wants to say something , but she stops breathing .

Cries of children rip through the air and I raise my gaze , “If you all want to come home with us , to join your new pack , you are welcome . But one disobeying thing you say or do – I will kick you out , you’d be alone , a rogue or I would simply kill you .” I shrug , waiting for them to make a choice and most of them bow .

I finally win .
