Revenge to the Alpha Mate novel Chapter 2

Chapter 2: Chapter 2

"I’m your mate Ethan, didn’t you notice?" I thought of the way his eyes widened when he saw me in the morning he must have known.

Ethan snorted, "I’m not your mate Lily."

My wolf growled, confirming to me that he was and that I wasn’t mistaken. My wolf wouldn’t react like that to just some guy.

"Yes, you are," I said getting irritated. What was his problem?

"Like I’d have some fat ugly loser as a mate. In your dreams, Lily. Look I’ve been nice to you and ignored your stupid crush all this time because your Keith’s sister but pretending to be my mate now that’s a new low for you." I stared at him, hurt and close to tears. But more than anything I was pissed. BEING NICE? He was the person who bullied me the most and my brother never stopped him.

He was rejecting me as his mate. He was ashamed of me. Suddenly I felt someone grab my arm and lead me to the passenger side of Keith’s car. I got in but was still in a daze, my own mate... the person who as supposed to love me, rejected me. Why did I expect anything different? Why did I think having a mate would change everything?

I didn’t even notice Keith get in the car and drive us home until my door was opened and Keith got me in the house.

"What the hell Lily?" Keith asked anger in his eyes.

"What?" I asked confused.

"Why did you lie and say you were Ethan’s mate? Now I’m never going to hear the end of it with the pack." He ran a hand through his hair and pinched the bridge of his nose trying to control his anger.

"WHAT?!" I yelled and I knew my eyes were now turning black like they always did when a wolf was mad, "HE IS MY MATE!"

"That’s enough," he punched the wall beside me, "I am so sick of your pathetic ass bothering me all the time. You’re a waste of air Lily. No one like you in the pack or even in school you lard butt and now you’re some freaking stalker after Ethan. Cut it out Lily." I looked at my brother and shook my head lightly in disbelief.

"You don’t believe me," I whispered more to myself than to myself. His words sunk in and I realized he was right. No one wants me here. No one really cares no matter what I hoped.

I ran up to my room and threw myself on the bed crying my eyes off. How could this happen? How could I fool myself into thinking anyone cares here? My own mate rejected me.

After I was done crying I sat in bed and my eyes drifted to my laptop. Someone did care and I would be stupid not to leave this place.

I quickly opened my laptop and opened Xavier’s email. I hit reply and wrote:

Dear Xavier,

I looked one last time back and said a silent ’goodbye’ but I didn’t cry and I didn’t look back again. I was numb by then.

Keith’s P.O.V.

I couldn’t believe Lily would lie like that, didn’t she know how much that lie could’ve cost me? Being the future Beta of the pack was important and I had a certain reputation to keep. I was more than mad as I went to Ethan’s house, all the guys were there already when I walked into the living.

"So I see you dropped your sister by the mental institution" Alan, one of the pack members, said making the others laugh except Ethan who was obviously not concentrating. I sat next to him and nudged him.

"Sorry for my sister. I don’t know where she got the idea you were mates" he nodded grimly and I listened to the chatter of the guys.

"Rogues were sited a while ago around the borders" Alan told me "We didn’t catch them and Ethan said if we smell their scent again to capture them instantly okay?" I nodded and reached for my phone to text Lily and tell her not to go out of the house. Rogues were dangerous and she wasn’t exactly a strong wolf.

I didn’t find my phone and realized that I must have forgot it at home. I groaned and started to get up.

"Where are you going man?" Peter asked.
