Rejected By My Mate

Chapter 38



Chapter 38

Layla’s POV

Walking towards the garden, I saw a lot of butterflies flying around ecstatically. That made me smile

faintly, but the sadness I felt in my heart became worse. What would it be like to be a butterfly? I guess

being a butterfly also sucks because they can’t walk. I wish they could talk so they will comfort me. Alex

and I always love to chase butterflies and play with them.

I sat at the bench and looked at the sunlight with tears rolled down in my cheeks. My heart aches

because it’s been two days and Alex still hasn't come back yet. I should have stopped them, if Alex just

listened to me. What if something bad happens to her? I swear, I will not forgive myself.

‘It wasn’t your fault. Stop blaming yourself.’

‘I couldn’t help myself but feel bad. I’d rather lose my mate than Alex.’

‘Are you insane?!’

Ada growled angrily, ‘Do you still love her?’

‘Of course, she’s still my first love after all. It’s hard to just forget about my feelings.’

‘What about Stephen?’

‘I don’t know. How can we be together if he’s far away? What if he doesn’t want me too? And like

Azrael, he will reject me. Who would want an omega to be an Alpha King’s Luna Queen?’

‘Stop calling yourself an omega because you are not!’

‘Yes, I am!’

My heartbeats quicken and suddenly, I feel an excruciating pain all over my body. I groaned and

grabbed my head with my two hands and fell to my knees.

What happened?

Ada kept growling inside me because of pain. I felt like my bones were cracking. An image flashed in

my head and tears rolling down in my face nonstop.

I was gasping for air while my one hand clutching my chest.

“H-Help!” I cried and screamed when the pain became unbearable. My vision was blurry and my body

felt weak. The images I saw in my head disgusts me and make me want to puke. How could he do this

to me?

Every time he thrust himself to a woman, the pain became intense and unbearable. I had a hard time

breathing because of it. It’s breaking me apart.

‘Ada!’

‘Ada!’

I cried when I couldn’t feel her. The pain wouldn’t just go away, I thought I’m going to die.

I crawled and screamed when the pain was beyond unbearable. I couldn’t take it anymore. Am I going

to die?

I screamed at the top of my lungs and suddenly the images stopped flashing in my head, but the pain

was still there. My ears caught the sound of footsteps running towards where I am and I passed out flat

on the ground.

~~~~~~

I shot up, gasping for air while clutching my chest. I am breathing heavily and my body is still aching.

Tears were rolling down my cheeks again when I remembered the scene I saw in my head. I cried my

heart out, and the tears flowed in my face like running water.

How could he cheat? He really doesn’t want me. Does this mean he rejected me?

‘Ada?’

‘Ada?’

Why couldn’t I feel her? I sobbed and buried my face in my knees. What happened to Ada?

‘Please, Ada… came back.’

I don’t know what to do if my wolf will leave me too. This is Stephen’s fault. I will not forgive him. He’s a

cheater. Mates are really useless. He’s the living proof of a cheater.

I will never, ever forgive Stephen if my wolf dies. Now, I know how Alex felt when Azrael rejected her. It

hurts like a bitch.

I swear I will kill my mate if I ever see him again! Rage filled my heart, and I clenched my fist into a ball.

Clenching my jaw, I wiped my tears harshly and got up on the bed.

Wait, who brought me here?

Someone might have seen me unconscious on the ground. Last thing I remember before I passed out

are the footsteps.

I stopped walking towards the door when the doorknob twisted and busted open.

“Hey, you’re awake. How are you feeling?” Queen Leia asked and gave me a sweet smile.

I smiled faintly and bowed. “I’m fine, Your Highness.”

“Oh, don’t be too formal. I told you to call me Mama,” she said while smiling and holding my hand,

“Alexa treats you as her real sister and I see you as my real daughter too.”

Tears rolled down in my cheeks and sobbed. “Oh dear. It must be hard. I’m sorry.” she said and

engulfed me in a hug. I cried loudly and hugged her back.

I ended up telling her what happened earlier. She also can’t believe that my mate cheated on me.

“Rest okay? Don’t worry, your wolf must heal now. It will take time because she took all the pain for

you.” she said while caressing my hair. I nodded.

But without my wolf, I’m considered a human. I felt empty without Ada. “Can I go to the garden?”

“Of course, dear. Call me if you wanted to talk, okay?” I hummed and nodded.

We both trotted out the room and separated our way in the hallway. Queen Leia walked towards the

throne room while I’m going outside.

I walked with heavy steps because I feel like my heart shattered into tiny pieces. So, this is what it feels

like when your mate cheated? I’m glad I survived the pain.

I sat on the bench and watched the butterflies and the flowers. The wind blew my skin nicely, and I

closed my eyes. I inhaled the fresh air and exhaled deeply. I do it repeatedly to calm my nerves.

I cracked my eyes open and smiled when I saw blue and green butterflies. It reminds me of Alex’s

eyes.

I hope Sabrina, Lucia and the others can find Alex and bring her back safely.

Alex, be safe…

I stood up and lay down in the grass while staring at the sunlight. It’s already afternoon, so the sun

didn’t feel too hot against my skin. Even the sun reminds me of Alex. I miss her. Why does she always

disappear? Alex, why do you always make me worried?

I sighed and stood up.

“Alexxx! You’re baccckkkkk!”

I gasped and looked to the other side where I heard Angelo’s voice shouting Alex’s name. My eyes

widened when I saw Alex standing in the middle of the pathway.

“ALEX!” I called and cried in joy. I ran towards her with a smile on my lips. She’s back!

I hugged her tightly and sobbed. “I thought something bad happened to you, Alex. I’m worried sick!”

wiping my tears, I release the hug.

She said nothing back that made me worried. Is she okay? Wait, where’s Azrael?

“W-What happened to you?” Angelo mumbled while staring at Alex intently. What’s wrong with Angelo?

Alex said nothing to us and just stared at us blankly as she passed us and walked towards the castle,

leaving us utterly flabbergasted at her behavior.

“Alex!” I called her, but she didn’t look back. Angelo and I looked at each other in confusion.

Angelo suddenly ran away to another direction. What was that? Alex is so weird. Did something

happen? I wonder where Azrael is.

Silently, I followed Alex inside the castle. I’m still wondering why she’s silent. I wanted so badly to know

why Azrael is not with her. Her eyes were void of emotion which scared me. I've never seen her eyes

like this our entire lives. Her eyes are the most expressive and ravishing that I've ever seen. And it’s so

weird to see no emotion in them. It’s like I am looking at a hollow person.

If Azrael did something to Alex again, I swear, I’ll kill him! I despise that man. He doesn’t deserve Alex.

He’s a jerk and stupid Alpha and Stephen as well. Screw them both. They are both cheaters.

My forehead creased when Alex entered the throne room. I just followed her silently, but why did I feel

weird around her? It’s like I felt bad vibes towards her. Something was off and I don’t like this feeling. I

hope I am just being paranoid.

Sabrina’s POV

It’s been two days since Alex has been gone with Azrael. We are all worried for them; I think something

has happened to them. We shouldn’t have let them go.

This is f*ck up. We need Alex in the war, she’s the only one who can defeat the beasts. We have to find

her no matter what, we only have 6 days to prepare for the war.

“Sabrina, we have to go back. We’ve been looking for them for two days straight but we still haven’t

found them.” Lucia said, and I looked at her.

“We will go back, but first, we need to go to Shepherd’s pack.”

“We don’t know where the pack was located.”

That’s the thing. But I know there’s a way we could get there. “Let’s ask for directions.”

She nodded and told the other warriors to continue walking. The thick snow was making our journey

slower. Snow was pouring continuously, and the wind blew harshly.

Suddenly, I felt an aura and stopped walking while on high alert. Next thing I knew, Vorges was in front

of us. All the warriors took out their weapons while glaring at Vorges.

“Vorges.” I spat.

He smiled cockily, “Long time no see, Sabrina.”

I glared at him, “What do you want?!”

“Relax. I’m just here to warn you. Tomorrow, all warriors will begin their journey towards the Tibbertan

Mountain since snow was filling up the entire river.”

Yeah, snow was approaching the Tibbertan Mountain and all hell will go down after 6 days. The war will

take place in 6 days and it means death is near. This will be a total chaos. If I could just stop the war. I

wish I could, but I know we can’t avoid it because it is our fate.

“You are still beautiful, Sabrina.” Vorges said while gawking at me. I cringed and glared at him. Is he

lusting over me? The f*ck?

“And, you are still ugly, Vorges.” I said, rolling my eyes in annoyance. He chuckled and said, “Hah!

Sorry, but I don’t believe your lies. If I remember it correctly, you told me I am handsome before. Did

you forget about it, love?”

I glared at him and clenched my jaw. “One more word, Vorges, and I swear I will rip your tongue out!”

“Woah! Okay, okay, short-tempered as always.” he said and wink. My God! What an ass!

I stared at Vorges intently and spoke after 2 minutes of our staring contest. “Vorges, can you tell me

where the Shepherd packs are located?”

He stopped and stared at me in surprise. His forehead creased in confusion, “Why?”

“None of your business!”

“Fine. I will not tell you. Easy.” I glared at him again. “I’ll tell you, but kiss me first.”

I closed my eyes in annoyance. Be patient, Sabrina. I swear I’ll kill this man after this.

I smile at him cockily, “Kiss you? What about my hand will kiss your lips? How’s that? Deal?” I said

while showing him my hands that were clenching into a ball, ready to punch.

His eyes widened and gulped. “Tsk. Brute.”

Suddenly, his expression changed seriously. “Why are you going to that pack?”

I let out a sigh. “Because Alex and Azrael didn’t come back. We heard nothing about them."

He nodded and put his hand on his pockets, “They got her.”

“What?!”

“Lucian and the others together with Azrael got Alex. They imprisoned her into the Shepherds dungeon

but…”

“But what?!” I eagerly said.

“She escaped.”

Thank God. Relief washed over me and said, “That’s good to know."

I looked at Lucia and the other warriors, “I guess we should head back, Alex might return to the castle.”

I uttered, and they nodded.

I felt a hand in my arms and looked at the owner. Vorges gray eyes met mine, and we stared at each

other’s eyes. I looked at his hand that was still holding me. He seemed to notice and immediately

release his grip from me. He mumbled his apology.

“Sabrina,” I raised my one eyebrow while waiting for him to say something. “I… I miss you…” he said

while looking straight at my eyes.

I stared at him dumbfounded and swallowed my saliva. But all the pain returned when I remember what

happened before. I clenched my jaw and my hands were shaking while clenching into a ball. Closing

my eyes, I turned my back at him and said, “Go away, Vorges. I don’t want to see you again.” I said in a

bitter tone and walked away. Lucia and the others followed me.

But I stopped when Vorges voice echoed, “I will do everything to get you back, Sabrina.”

I release a long breath and continue walking. I stopped myself from crying and just walked silently.

Images were flashing in my head.

Vorges and I used to be in a relationship before until his father ruined it. That son of a b*tch almost

rape me and I swear if I see that vampire King again, I will kill him and ripped him apart into tiny pieces.

That King is ruthless and evil. He’s the reason I separated from Vorges because of my hatred for the

Vampires.

Vampires and Witches used to hate each other, but because of the alliance that my cousin Vladimir

formed, my people got acquaintances with the vampires.

I don’t know if I should take my place again as their Queen. But I don’t want that title anymore. Now

that I have found a true family that will love me, I will never trade them just for the title. Auntie Leia and

her family are all that I have, and I will do everything to protect them even if it costs my life. Alex is my

number one priority, I’ll do everything to protect her from our enemies that wanted to kill her.

But wait, Azrael and Lucian imprisoned Alex? That son of a b*tch! He betrayed us all along! How could

Azrael betray Alex? His own mate? I gritted my teeth in anger. I swear I’ll kill that bastard!

“Sabrina, relaxed,” Lucia mumbled, and tapped my shoulder. I sighed and inhaled, then exhaled some

air to calm my nerves.

Alex didn’t deserve all the pain she went through. Why did Azrael choose to hurt Alex? I saw how he

looked at her, full of admiration. So what a sudden change? Something’s going on. What if Azrael is

part of the alliance, but he didn’t know that it was his mate that they are going to kill? I don’t know what

to think. Whatever reason he had, it’s still unforgivable. Azrael didn’t deserve Alex anymore, and he is

now one of our many enemies.

I let out an exhausted sigh. In love, we are all hopeless. Are we born to be alone? I shook my head to

erase the thoughts. I wanted kids and I don’t want to be alone forever.

Lucia cast a spell, and a portal opened. She looked at me and I nodded, then entered the portal.

I hope Alex is fine. Azrael will pay for his betrayal. He deceived us all, and it’s unforgivable. My heart

was racing thinking that Alex must be in too much pain and it only means one thing; her emotions got Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

provoked. Oh no, what if her beast awakened? This is f*ck up and the end of us.

The portal brought us again to the Tibbertan Mountain. I immediately stomped into the rectangular

marble floor and cast a spell. The white gate opened, and I entered quickly. The forest came in view

and I ran towards the entrance of the town. I didn’t listen to Lucia’s call. The guards saw me and let me

enter. I didn’t use the carriage and just teleported myself into the castle.

I looked around, and I was at the entrance of the castle. I can sense Alex’s powerful aura around the

castle. The aura was inside the throne room, so I walked towards the throne room. The two knights

opened the door for me and I entered quickly.

My eyes scanned Auntie Leia who was hugging Alex while Uncle Alexander was smiling while watching

them and relief washed over his face. Uncle saw me and smiled.

“Sabrina, I’m glad you’re back.” I just nodded and looked at Alex. She looked at me, but my breathing

hitched in my throat when I stared at her eyes. It was void of emotion. My heart was racing when a

smile plastered on Alex’s lips. But her smiles give me creeps and my hair all over my body rose.

I fake a smile and said, “Alex, I’m glad you’re safe.”

She just smiled, and I almost gasped when I saw her eyes darkened but it quickly came back to

normal. Sh*t!

I excuse myself and get out of there as fast as I could. I have to stay away from Alex for the meanwhile.

This isn’t good. I need a plan.
