Rejected, I Won A Second Chance Mate

Untitled Episode

Jemima's POV

I waited until night before I started to pack my bags. There were nothing but old things in there. My aunt never bought me anything. The most valuable thing in that back was a compass given to me by my mother. She told me that I must keep it safe and that was what I've been doing.

By the time I was done, I carried my hold back. It was a very small bag that people would barely notice. I stepped out but a guard stopped me.

"Where the hell do you think you're going?" He said firmly.

I shrunk at first at his baritone but I adjusted myself quickly.

"The head maid sent me to get the wine she buried under the oak tree. She said it would be used to serve the alpha and his guest tomorrow," I replied.

The night was already dark and I was sure he wouldn't be able to leave his position to ask the head maid. However, all of a sudden I realised that the look on his face changed and he was moving closer to me.

"Your name is Jemima, isn't it?"

"What are you doing?" I asked him as I stepped back.

The next thing I knew was that he grabbed me and pulled me to a corner. I tried screaming but he tied a dirty cloth on my mouth. I couldn't scream. I kept fighting him but because I was wolfless he overpowered me easily.

"You are nothing but the one rejected by the alpha. You should be happy I'm willing to have you," the guard said with a wicked smile.

He wanted to rape me. That would be the worst thing that ever happened to me. He splitted my dress into two and my breast popped out.

I knew that was the end of it until all of a sudden he was suddenly floating in the air.

"How dare you!" I heard a familiar growl.

By the time I looked at the man standing before me, I never expected it would be Alexander. What was he doing here at night? Was he coming to save me?

'Oh, Jemima! Drop your stupid feelings. He doesn't want you at all!'

There was clear anger in Alexander's eyes and he went to the guard and beat him mercilessly. I was watching dreadfully knowing it would definitely be my turn. I had to run away.

I tried to sneak away but Alexander's harsh voice stopped me.

"If you move an inch, I will have your legs for breakfast."

His voice was so scary that I panicked. I can't underestimate what Alexander can do. He is a brutal one.

"How slutty of you to seduce a guard, Jemima!" He growled.

Now he was moving closer to me and I was moving back. He hasn't touched me yet but just his looks were strangling me already.

My mate didn't want me and he even despised me as a slut sleeping around. Goddess, why did I deserve all this?

"How dare you Jemima!" He growled again.

I knew I had to defend myself. " It's not what you think, Alexander. He was forcing himself on me, " I blurted out.

Now my back was already on the wall and there was nowhere I could run to. I could see his wolf already taking charge. That was the mating bond that called Alexander to me. Well, he saved me from getting raped but with the anger in his eyes, my fear was to be killed by him.

"Please believe me," I begged him.

"Don't try to play the pity party here just because you were caught. If I hadn't been here you would have opened your filthy legs to him. Is that how you were desperate to have a man under you? I didn't know the wrong I did the moon goddess to have mated you to me! "

By this time his eyes were so close to mine that we were sharing the same breath. I was so angry at his words that I didn't care what he was going to do to me.

"If you hate me that much, why not just reject me and stop tormenting yourself with a filthy mate like me!" I said panting hard with anger.

He was definitely going to reject me because I was going to be sold to the Alpha King sooner or later. I just didn't know why he was hesitating.

Alexander grabbed my neck and made me choke. I tried pulling his hand away with both hands but he was stronger.

"Yes I hate you but you can't tell me what to do girl," he tightened his hand around my neck.

Seeing that I was running out of breath I began to hit his chest and I saw the colour of his eyes darken. I wasn't planning to die like this but the man was stronger. As I thought my life would end, he released me, glaring at me.

"You serve all that has been done to you and by this time tomorrow you will be sold to the Alpha King and I will painfully reject you. I will give you the grand rejection that you requested, " he said with a hostile look.

I didn't care if the pain of rejection was going to kill me. I just want to end this annoying bond between us. I looked at him ready for the pain but for a huge second, Alexander didn't say anything. I was angry and anxious but he kept looking at me.

Before I could blink my eyes Alexander pinned me to the wall and grabbed my breast. His hands on me even though it was rough sent tingles all over my body and I could hear him swear.

"Damn!" He growled.

I remember that the guard had split my dress, exposing my breasts. I felt like pushing Alexander away but his large palm on my breast felt so good. I couldn't help but moan in ecstasy as he squeezed them roughly.

Looking at Alexander's eyes, the lust I saw in them triggered me. I knew it was stupid of me to enjoy his hands on me but the mating bond is a b***h. Just then, he slammed his lips on mine and kissed me deeply. I wrapped my hands around his neck.

His lips left mine and searched for my breast, sucking it hard. Just then as his other hand slid into my pants, I came back to my senses.

If I let Alexander have his way with me tonight, then the slut he called me would be right. I can't overpower him but I needed to do something to make him leave me alone.

"I, Jemima Brown reject you, Alexander Lancaster, as my fated mate!" I shouted with a shaky voice.

I knew that wouldn't happen because no omega has the power to reject a mate but it truly stopped Alexander. He paused and looked at me, then smiled. Just as he wanted to say something, he grabbed his stomach and screamed in pain.

I was so shocked that I moved away from him.

"That can't be the mating bond breaking," I said to myself.

I watched him as he continued to growl in pain. Then something occurred to me. My chance of escaping. I ran away, then I saw the little bag the guard made me drop. I grabbed it and escaped.

Soon I heard Alexander barking orders at the guards to run after me. I kept running not knowing where I got the strength from.

"That's her!" I heard someone shout.

I was so scared that I increased my pace. I must not be caught. I ran like someone who was at the point of death. They shifted into their wolf form and ran after me.

After all, I'm an omega who doesn't have a wolf. I had to run for my life. I was seeing the border right in front of me but they were also close to me. I ran with all my strength and I approached the river that separated the packs.

They all slowed down. Crossing the border at will was a capital offense. None of them dared to act rashly.

But I didn't care at all. One of them was so close that with just one more stretch he was going to grab me. I knew what hell would await me if I let them catch me.

So I dove headfirst into the rushing river.
