Her Rejection, His Regret

Chapter Five

“Do you think this is acceptable?” Mora growled at Alpha Miller when he did not immediately defend her. She did not like how he was acting and how he could not keep his eyes off me.

Mora was jealous!

A small part of me felt good about the tables being turned, and she would know how I had been made to feel since the day I found out he was my mate.

He had rejected me and made me feel like a worthless piece of s**t. I cried for days after that and felt lower than a limbo stick on its lowest setting. They had destroyed my dreams of having my happy ending. They were why I had left my life here, my family and everything I had ever known.

When I arrived at my uncle's pack, I had been a mess. But meeting Zara, she had become my rock. We hit it off and became the best of friends. She was the one to make me realise that I deserved better than him anyway.

The moon goddess has made a huge mistake when pairing me with him. He was selfish and arrogant. He thought only of himself.

“I am the Luna of this pack.” Mora insisted like she was afraid that I was about to snatch it all from her.

“You are more than welcome to this pack and your alpha. I am leaving. You can carry on with this s**t show. Goodbye.” I stood to leave the room, but Alpha Miller leapt over the table desperately to prevent me from going.

“Isla, please. Do not leave. We need to talk.” Alpha Miller pleaded like a pathetic fool. I looked down at him in disgust and freed myself.

“You cannot be serious, Miller! You are my mate. Not hers.” Mora shrieked wide-eyed as she backed away from him.

“Get out of my sight, you stupid bitch.” He snarled in his alpha tone, over his shoulder to her. She was shocked by his sudden change of attitude.

I was repulsed that he was even considering to try and win me back. He could burn in hell first.

“My wolf, he never forgave me for rejecting you, and ever since you came back, he’s been going crazy for you. I know you feel it, too.” He carried on begging.

I allowed myself to look down at him, meeting his gaze; he was desperate for my approval. I saw in his eyes how he yearned for me, the guilt and regret in his face.

“You rejected me, remember? You let everyone treat me like s**t. You went with another female and tossed me aside like rubbish.” I started to spout out, letting all the anger, frustration and hurt out. He needed to know how his actions had affected me, how this was all his fault.

“And now she is pregnant with your pup. I can’t forgive you for any of this.” I said, holding my head up high. He was not going to make me c***k.

He would not undo my hard work and bring the old me out. I was stronger than that now, and I deserved better than someone who threw me aside and thought it perfectly fine to pick me up when it suited.

I smirked and shook my head. “You made your choice. Live with it.” I turned on my heel and left the room.

There was no way I would sit back and let him treat me like a mug. No chance would anyone ever mess with my head again!

Mora was more than welcome to his weak ass. He was no alpha in my eyes.

Walking out of the pack-house and feeling the fresh air hit me was a nice feeling. I felt a whole weight off my shoulders since I had just put the alpha in his place. Mora thought she was perfect, a queen everyone should bow down to.

Not me.

She had made my life hell, and I disliked her. Even though I did not want my stupid ex-mate, that did not mean I would ever be on with how I had been treated.

Aly and a few other omegas sat together on the benches, laughing and joking about something. Aly was swinging her legs to and fro when she suddenly looked up, catching my eyes and waving to me.

“Hey, Isla, would you like to join us?” She called out as if forgetting our little argument earlier. I was about to decline her offer when the other girls turned and gasped.

“Isla Higgins?” I recognise one of them as Jasmin. Her mouth was wide open in disbelief as she stared at me longer than needed.

“That would be me.” I raised my eyebrows.

“I am so sorry it is just, well, you look so different.”

She looked nervous, so I grinned and shrugged like it was no big deal. I know what she meant.

I was no longer fatty, Isla. Instead, I was slimmer and toned, and my hair was different.

I was about to assure her that it was okay she did not need to apologise to me when I noticed the others suddenly turn their eyes to the left of me and bow.

I did not need to look over my shoulder to see why.

“Isla Higgins, I demand you come back inside at once.”

I rolled my eyes and sighed as Alpha Miller followed me out.

He was mad to think he could order me since I was no longer a part of this pack.

“I, Isla Higgins, accept your rejection of me as your mate and Luna to Pembroke Pack.”

The echo of shocked gasps around us made Alpha Miller even more furious.

I did not care anymore.

He was nothing to me now as if a huge weight was lifted from my shoulders.
