Him, His Uncle And I!

Rebecca

I staggered a little. What? This was a little too much for me to take in.

" What do you mean? I finally mastered the energy to ask him. What did he mean? A mate rejection? Was that not a bit extreme? Why would he want to do this to mean? I thought we were friends not only that, I thought he liked me too so why?

He sighed and said, " Rebecca, it's complicated."

" Then make it simpler!" I raised my voice a little. it is complicated? That is the best he could give for throwing such a bomb shell on me, it is complicated?!

He looked around and said, " Don't be so loud, Rebecca, my pack members are patrolling the area. I don't want anyone finding us here, it could lead to problems."

I looked at him incredulous, is he being serious right now? He is worried about being caught here with me? But is there something wrong with me? Is it because I am a slave? A lump forms in my throat at this thought, I do not want to believe it and push if back to the back of my mind but deep down I know that, it could be one of the reasons why, my newfound mate wanted to reject me.

I heard him shuffle from one foot to the other, this meant that he was getting impatient and annoyed.

" Look, Rebecca if you accept this, it will make things easier for the both of us, okay? Trust me, I am doing this not only for me, but I am-"

" Oh please don't tell me that you are doing this for me too! That will be a lie right? Don't feed yourself lies and try do to the same with me, Ryan. I am not that gullible." I shot back before he could finish his sentence.

He let out a frustrated sigh and said, " Fine, you are not buying it right? Then accept my rejection." He retorted it.

He is irritated now.

I swallow down the lump in my throat because it is making it hard for me to breathe. And i do not what to back down.

Exhaling sharply, I look at Ryan dead I'm the eye.

" I just have a few questions, and I hope ypu can answer me honestly, Ryan. For the past 4 years, you knew that i liked you, right? Was it my illusion when i say that you liked me back? " I say and i can feel him freeze. His eyes, widen and he cant seem to find the right words to say to me.

I nod. He is going to be like this despite knowing my feelings for him, and probably he is also going to deny any feeling he has for me. Am i that bad? He likes me too, I can tell from his eyes. I could see it for many years, and though i knew how to be realistic. There was a small part of me that actually hoped that Ryan would probe me wrong. In the end, if the moon goddness blessed us with a bond, he would actually sweep me away like the girls had imagined, but i guess that would not be the case.

The moon goddness did bless us with a bond, but my all tome crush wanted nothing more than to break it even before it has blossomed.

I did my best to hold back my tears, but the realization hit me hard. He did not want me and that's was that. At this point there is nothing I can do aside from just feel sad for myself and blame my childish foolishness that led me to the life of being a slave.

As the tears trckled on my face I said.

" Alright, you can start."

I can feel my wolf pacing around agitated and panicked over my decision. I had just made her today and my wolf was a lovely piece of species. She appeared docile bit she was actually feisty but she also had great loyalty. She whined and begged me to stop me from making the decision I was making. But I could not do what she wanted, If he did not want me, what is the point of holding on to him?

Ryan looked shocked at my sudden change, but he quickly masked it,

" I, Ryan, the next in line for alpha, reject you, Rebecca..."

he paused and sighed, then added

" slave of my pack."
