Bethany P. O. V
"Meet me at my office tomorrow; I don't want to discuss this matter in front of everyone."
Alpha's voice was still echoing in my head. I was both worried and scared because of this sudden revelation of my secret. I was afraid that the alpha would banish me from the pack. I knew very well he didn't want to do it in front of other people because of my mother. He once admired Mom and everyone knows this in our pack. Later they found their respective mates and went on separate ways.
Though the alpha didn't say anything to me in public his beta, Alyssa's father didn't spare a chance to humiliate me and my parents.
"A wolfless freak like you can't enter the party, nor even your parents are welcome here," he said in disgust. As proud as my parents were, they didn't want me to be embarrassed and humiliated anymore so they took me back towards the exit of the event.
We were on our way to the exit; suddenly out of nowhere, Jacob came in front of us. He ignored the glare of my parents and asked me, "Bethany, can we talk in private for a minute?"
Mom gripped my hand protectively and Dad was about to pounce at Jacob but I stopped them showing them an assuring smile that I would be fine. After looking at my pleading look Mom loosened her grip and Dad nodded at me. I turned to Jacob and nodded at him saying, "Okay, let's go."
After that, Jacob took me to a secluded corner, where no one could see us. I had a slight hope in my heart that he would accept me with my flaws.
"Jacob, I knew the moon goddess has made us mate for some reason and I am glad that you are accepting our mate bond instead of me being wolfless."
"Bethany, stop dreaming. It doesn't matter if you are my mate. I am not going to accept someone that doesn't have her wolf. I am the future alpha of this pack. I cannot take someone as weak as a human as my Luna. So I am here to reject you." I felt a piercing pain in my heart. He had been pursuing me for the longest time. There were many times when he declared his feelings for me. And now he is going to reject me just because I don't have a wolf? Did those years mean nothing to him?
"Jacob, please don't reject our bond. You were so happy because I was your mate a few moments ago. You said several times that you like me. What happened to those feelings? Please for the sake of the moon goddess give our bond a chance." I pleaded to him. But he was reluctant to my pleas. The looks on his face were boredom, disdain, and hatred. How a person could change so much in just a few hours?
"I liked you because you were beautiful and hard to get. And now that I know your truth I don't think any other men of this pack would like to show interest in you. So Bethany Morris, I Jacob Rogers the future alpha of the silver pack reject you as my mate."
The moment he finished his words I felt an unbearable pain all over my body as if someone was slicing my body with a sharp blade. I couldn't take the pain anymore and fell on the ground crying in pain. Was this the pain someone felt after being rejected? Though I couldn't feel the mate bond this rejection pain was taking away my life. Jacob was standing there looking at me yelping the pain. For a moment I thought he would have mercy on me but he just left me there writhing in pain and walked away without looking back for once.
By the time I reached home, I was a crying mess. Seeing my tear-stained face my mom took me in her embrace and I started crying again. The evening passed away as I described everything to my parents. They both try to console me to ease my pain.
"Dear, don't cry over that boy. He doesn't deserve you. Everything will be okay and you will find someone who deserves you and will love you the way you are." Mom said to make me feel better. But the rejection pain wasn't that easy to go away. I cried myself to sleep.
That night I had a strange dream. In my dream, I saw that man again and his face was still blurry. He kissed my tears away and pulled me in a comforting hug. I felt so safe in his embrace. I was lost in the sweet moment when I heard a possessive growl from another man. As soon as my eyes opened I realized this was a dream again. But why am I seeing this man in my dream? Who was the other man? Why they are in my dream? A lot of questions were running in my head but I had no answer for any of them.
I looked outside my window; the morning sun was shining brightly. I pulled myself off the bed and got ready for school. My parents were concerned about me going to school after the incidents of last night. But I assured them that I would be okay. So they let me go.
I reached the school alone for the first time. I was standing in front of the gate thinking about how my life had changed upside down in a night and that too by my best friend. How could I never realize her hatred toward me? I exhaled a long breath and walked inside hoping everyone had forgotten about me and they would let me alone. But to my miserable luck, I bumped into Alyssa and her little minion.
"Look who we have here? The wolfless omega of the pack. Don't your parents remind you that the lower-ranked wolfless omegas cannot go to school with the ranked wolves?" she kept insulting me while I was silent the whole time.
"Alyssa please let me go. I am not here to fight with you," I requested her in a low voice. I didn't want any more drama in my already messed up life.
"Did you just call me by my name, you wolfless freak?" she yelled at my face. I flinched at her sudden outburst. Then she smirked at me and leaned closer to my ear.
"You should practice calling me Luna from now on. Jacob proposed to me last night to be his chosen mate. And guess what? I accepted obviously. After that, he rejected you remember? I was feeling so good while watching you crying in pain," she whispered only for me to hear. I couldn't control myself and slapped her in her face. Her face became red in anger.
"You freaking b*tch, you dared to put your hand on me the future Luna of the pack?" she yelled gaining the attention of other students. Jacob was also there watching everything from not so far. He came rushing to us. As soon as Alyssa saw him she clung to his body hooking their arms.
"Baby, you saw how this b*tch slapped after knowing you chose me to be your Luna. Don't you think she deserves to be punished for insulting the future Alpha and Luna?" she asked him with her puppy eyes. I was looking at Jacob's face, he didn't even protest Alyssa just stood there with a smirk. That was the last thing I expected from him. Seeing him silent Alyssa and her minions jumped on me and started beating the sh*t out of me until my parents rescued me from them. Jacob was standing there the whole time watching the show.
"How dare you put your hands on my daughter? And Jacob, you were watching them? She is your mate, even if you rejected her as the future Alpha you should have helped her," saying that my dad started punching Jacob and my mom started beating Alyssa and her friends. After giving them a good beating my parents took me home.
Mom was mending my wounds and Dad was pacing around the room. I was afraid of them disowning me. But all my worries washed away by the next second after hearing my Dad.
"Pack up your things; we are leaving this pack this night. We are leaving for Black Moon Pack," as soon as I heard the name of the place a cold shiver ran down my spine. Black Moon Pack was notoriously famous for their ruthless Alpha and his cruelty. He was ruthless and heartless at the same time. There are a lot of terrifying stories about him that I heard in this pack. I was afraid of going there.
Will he accept me as a member of his pack after knowing my truth? Or he will also expel me from his pack like my previous Alpha?
