(Millenium’s POV)
How dare that Vampire King think he can take my mate. She is mine, even if I don’t want that useless human. He still can’t waltz in and claim she is his mate. That damn Harlot can’t seem to keep it in her pants. First marrying me, then divorcing me, just to go be with the vampire King. What a joke?
‘How did we not know that she was our mate when we got married? She was eighteen, we should have been able to tell. Why does she smell different?’ I asked wolf in annoyance. Why did he have nothing to say other than our mate, our mate, our mate. How was that helpful and why was he whining the words instead of being excited? Though, I knew I wasn’t excited.
‘I was whining because I knew you would reject her. The Goddess made us for her and her for us, but you can’t accept that. If you smelt our mate, for even a second, you would have smelt that she was pure and does have a wolf. I tried to connect to her but because of you, she wouldn’t allow me in. Now I am stuck with no mate because of my stubborn human.’ Wolf growled at me in frustration before blocking me out. I sighed in annoyance as I sat back against the seat in the car. I couldn’t wait to be back in the pack where my lovers were. I never wanted to think about that disgusting human again.
The problem was, no matter what I did, my mind kept drifting back to her. Imagine her body underneath mine, as she writhed around, begging me to allow her a release. I would tease her longer, making her suffer until I was ready to watch her scream my name with pleasure. Her blonde hair glistening with sweat, as it sways all over my pillow. Her plump breast bouncing with every arch of her back. Ugh, f**k.
I grunt in annoyance, as my father and mother turn their piercing glares towards me. So not only was my wolf pissed off with me, so were my parents. Why did I expect anything different?
“What?” I growled in annoyance. Before I could even register what was happening, mother jumped over the seat. She placed her tiny hands around my neck, squeezing me as her eyes told me she was going for the kill. My eyes widened in horror; I have never seen my mother this pissed off before. Father reached out, wrapping one arm around my mother’s waist, as his other hand stroked her hair. He pulled her back, making her land in his lap, as he whispered sweet nothings to her. Did my father save me or was it just for my mother’s benefit?
“You need to learn some respect boy. Until you do, I will be taking the Alpha position back over. I think you need to touch up on the offerings the Moon Goddess provides, the respect all should show their elders and the way a mate should be treated. While you are at it, see what happens to the wolves who rejected their mates.” My father spoke with authority, not allowing me to question him. I hate that previous alpha’s auras still worked, even when they weren’t the current alpha anymore.
“Father you can’t do that to me. Our pack deserves a stronger Luna...” I started to defend myself, but my mother was not in the mood to hear it.
She cut me off with a growl, as she went to lunge for me again. Thankfully father still had a hold on her. “The pack deserves a better Alpha than you, she was an amazing Luna and the whole pack adored her.”
“It is alright my sweets, calm down. I do not want my little mate to be angry.” Father spoke lovingly to mother. You have got to be kidding me. As we came to a stop outside of the pack house, I didn’t dare to say a word to them as I exited the car. Though it seemed they still had plenty to say to me. They exited the car after me, following me towards my office.
“This is Alpha’s office and that makes it mine again. You are forbidden to work in our companies in the human world, forbidden to lay with a female who is not your mate and forbidden to act privileged around the pack. You will be studying half the day on what I told you to do and the other half working as an omega. The head omega will be your new boss, maybe you will then see how much Ava did around here, how much they adored her and how to respect your superiors.” Father said in a dismissive tone. He was done after he spoke his punishment. No room for argument or debate. He was dismissing me out of my own office. I was looking at him in shock, my eyes wide, mouth wide open and no way I was hearing his words correctly.
“Excuse me?” I asked in disbelief, still not believing his words. There was no way I heard him right.
“You heard him right, Millenium. You will work under the head of the omegas and study for the remainder of the day. Time to learn the consequences of your actions.” Mother said sternly. She was in on this as well? How could she be alright with this? I would be degrading myself in front of the whole pack. I wouldn’t do it. They couldn’t make me.
“Don't make me Alpha command you Millenium.” Father sighed in exhaustion. He was tired of me, and I soon realized how much of a pain in the ass I have been for them lately. Always out with she - wolves, slacking on my duties, hurting their close friends for my own personal grudges, and always undermining anything my father said. I left the office with my head hanging down in shame. Maybe I went too far this time.
I went back to my room, as I thought of a way to get out of this punishment. I could possibly apologize to Ava, not that I wanted too. Though if it would get me out of this punishment...
‘They would want you to accept our mate, apologize to her and her parents. Apologize to our parents, cut off all other flings you have and start respecting others.’ My wolf said with certainty. How did he know what they wanted? How did he know what he was saying would work and let me take back the Alpha position? Only problem was, I would never accept Ava, no matter what wolf says, I know she is a mere human and a hussy trying to climb the hierarchy. There is no way the Goddess actually meant to give her as my mate. She was given as a lesson, letting me know what I should never want in a mate. How can that Vampire King accept her so fast? Maybe he liked his women experienced and fragile, as a wolf I couldn’t have that in a pack. My wolves needed to know their Alpha and Luna could defend them, not only one of us. That would leave my pack vulnerable. Plus, she just wasn’t my type.
Her body looked toned under her outfit though. Her skintight outfit showed off those perfect curves I wouldn’t mind grabbing and slamming into for the rest of my life as her light blue eyes shined love and lust for me. I shake my head, trying to rid myself of these thoughts. Why was my mind wandering in this direction? A shudder of disgust... or was it pleasure? No, definitely disgust ran through me at the thought of her near me.
I pulled out a book about mates, deciding to skim through it before bed. As I skimmed through the pages, I froze for a few seconds before rereading the passage.
Mates are soulmates. The half of another who completes them. Mates are chosen by the Moon Goddess, fitting them perfectly together. Many wolves feel rejecting their mate is a direct disrespect to their Goddess, making rejections rare.
Rejections can be done by any wolf. Weaker wolves could lose their wolf or even die from a rejection. After the rejection is said, pain will be felt by both parties until the second wolf accepts it. A rejection is not complete until it has been accepted. At any time before the acceptance of the rejection, the rejector can take back his or her rejection, making their bond whole again.
There is a special wolf, one rarely seen, that has multiple mates. They are said to be powerful beings and only around for a purpose. They need multiple mates to help control their emotions and powers. Depending on what the Goddess’s purpose of the special wolf is, it will determine the species and number of mates. They have the chance to have two to five mate's total. All must accept him or her by their twentieth birthday or they will die.
Could it be possible our mate was this special wolf the book is speaking of? Maybe I am being delusional but what if I wasn’t? Would my rejection be the cause of her death? Does she need all her mates to accept her or just a few of them? If we completed the rejection, could she get a new one in my place? These questions were giving me a migraine and I didn’t understand why I cared so much.
‘Oh, so you admit our mate is a wolf now? Not just any wolf either, now you think she is a special one?’ Wolf said arrogantly as he smirked inside my mind. Ugh, could he ever just shut up and keep his opinions to himself?
