I Rejected You, Alpha

Chapter 26



ELEIA’S POV

Waking up in the light room , something already feels different to the day .

Today I am becoming Luna , I am becoming one of the leaders in this pack and I can’t wait .

I turn around , rolling right into Aiden , who’s still fast asleep .

“Hi .” I beam , hoping he’d shoot open an eye , but he doesn’t , he doesn’t move except for his chest falling and rising as he breathes .

At least he’s alive .

Oh goddess , Stefan !

I roll out of bed , rushing to the bathroom to do my business and when I rush out , I grab shoes and a jersey , putting it on before I make my way out of the house towards the medical building , stomping through the snow .

My legs feel weak when I barge through the snow , the way I have to lift my legs so high makes me weak but once I welcome the warmth of the inside the medical building , I sigh , rubbing my hands together for more heat .

I stride down the hallway , finding Rosie and Stefan still in the room .

“Hi .” I knock on the open door and her eyes lift as she pulls clothes out of a bag and hands them to Stefan wearing a gown .

“Hi .” She smiles happily , relief covering her face .

“Excuse me .” Stefan mutters , walking towards the bathroom to get dressed .

“He okay ?” I ask my tired looking best friend and she nods , smiling .

“Good , you two coming home ?” I ask and my heart dents at the name .

I haven’t had a home in years since I went to live at the pack house , but here I am , already feeling at home , already feeling like I belong in this place .

“Yes . Stefan said he’s going to build us our own home .” She smiles , glancing at the door and joy erupts in my chest , I’m so happy for her .

“It’s going to suck that you’re not going to live in the same house , so he better build it close to ours .” I pout and she giggles , nodding , “Definitely .”

Stefan comes out wearing sweatpants and a jersey , raking his fingers through his hair , “Are you two done being sentimental ?” Stefan deadpans as he grabs his phone from the bedside table of his hospital bed and I nod , sucking the edge of my bottom l*p into my mouth .

“And what are you doing here ? You have a ceremony today . You’re suppose to lay in the bath and get ready , not check up on me .” Stefan scoffs , looking at me like I’m insane and anger begins to brew in my chest as I shake my head at him .

“Don’t be rude , I’m not here for you .” I snap , even though I did want to make sure he’s okay .

“Sure .” He grins and it feels like he’s flirting , but on the other hand , I know he isn’t .

It’s like a force of comfort that he gives me by being so smug .

“Can we just go ?” Rosie yawns as she swings the bag over her shoulder and I nod , turning on my heel .

‘Eleia ?’ Aiden’s panicked voice echoes through my mind .

‘I’m at the medical building with Rosie .’ I inform him , hoping that he would calm down .All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

It’s like I can feel his anxiety , like a ghost shiver twisting around my spine .

‘Why didn’t yo wake me up ?’ Now he sounds so mad that it makes it feel like a shadow hand is crushing my heart to where it hurts my chest .

‘Come home , now .’ He demands before I could say anything , so I shut the mind link and head back home , doing exactly what I was doing anyway .

Stomping through the snow , Rosie helps Stefan walk , or she wants to but he chuckles , telling her that he’s alright to walk on his own .

As I step through the front door , I’m grabbed by my waist , spun around before I’m pressed to the wall .

Aiden’s baby blues pierce into my orbs , his body towering over me , his one hand on one side of my head , resting against the wall , his other still on my waist , pressing my back into the wall .

“What were you thinking ?” His chest heaves , his eyes flicking between mine as if he might find an answer in them .

“I thought that I needed to check up on my best friend .” I explain and a low grunt escapes his lips before he crashes his lips into mine , pressure building in the back of my head as it’s pushed into the hard wall .

I push my hands against his chest , kicking myself off the wall .

“Stop it , I’m right here , I’m fine , what is the matter with you ?” I ask , stepping towards him as he rubs his fingers across his temple .

“I was just scared .” He snaps and his eyes glance to the side where Stefan and Rosie stand awkwardly , looking at us in their frozen positions as if we might kill each other .

“What ? You can go .” I snap and Rosie’s eyes widen before she grabs Stefan’s hand and they walk up the stairs .

“What were you scared of ?” I focus back on my mate and his eyes fall shut as his tongue drags over his teeth .

“Nothing , forget I said that .” He shrugs it off and as he turns , I grab his wrist , turning him back to look at me .

“You don’t get to do that .” I shake my head in disapproval , this is ridiculous , we’re going to be mates and he wants to run off like he’s some sort of nobody , like he doesn’t need to tell me things , but I am not going to live my life like that .

I want more than what my previous life had to offer .

“Do what ?” He sounds so tired and I c**k my head at him , pulling him closer to me , which makes him roll his eyes .

“You don’t get to give up on conversations , because we are together .” My shoulders raise as hope fills me , “We don’t get to give up on one another and I’m sorry that I didn’t tell you I was leaving the bed or the house , but why should I ? Isn’t this my home too now ?” I push him and he just blankly stares at me , his eyes flicking between mine , but he doesn’t move anything else .

“Aiden ?”

“Of course this is your house too now , I don’t mind you leaving it , but I need to know where you are . I need to know you’re safe , I need to know that you’re alive .” His eyes widen with each need to know and the action makes me want to roll into a ball and hop into a hole that will protect me .

“Then stop making me feel like I’m still living in your house , where I have to tell you everything , where I feel like a prisoner because if that’s the case , how is it any better than my old pack ?” I snap and hurt flashes through his eyes .

“I can’t believe you just said that .” He paces to the side , anger flashing through his eyes , his hands fisting next to his sides , “My concern to your whereabouts are not because I want control of you , I want to know that you’re safe . That’s all .” His hands shake from fury and I sigh , nodding .

“Okay. I’m sorry .” I admit that I was wrong , seeing his anger face .

“Can you just get ready ? I’ll deal with everything else today .” He rakes his and through his messy hair and I nod , chewing on my bottom l*p before making my way up the stairs .

“But shouldn’t I do it ?” I ask , halting in my steps at the second one .

“No , today is about you . You’re the princess today , so go be one and I’ll be up in an hour or so .” He shrugs and I nod , smiling at him .

I love how I feel when I smile at him , it feels so real , it feels magical , as if the world is applauding me for being with him .

It’s a true gift and I can’t imagine what my life would have been like if I had stayed with Regan .

Aiden and I would never have met , only in an attack perhaps , but if Regan never rejected me , I would never have found the only true love of my life .

I would have missed this , I would never have had a home , I would never have had the chance to be truly happy .

As I pass the hallway , Rosie calls out to me with worried eyes , “Are you okay ?” She asks , looking ready to fight him and I giggle , nodding .

“It’s just miscommunication , we’re figuring it out .” I shrug and she nods , “Are you ready ? It’s a big deal .” She smiles so proudly and it makes me feel whole again .

“I am and I’m really happy that you’re here too .” I smile as I take her hands .

“I would have never met my mate if it weren’t for you and Aiden , thank you .” She looks so in love that it makes my heart skip a beat .

“I guess we owe a thanks to Regan after all .” I shrug and she rolls her eyes , a smile tugging at her lips .

“Not ever going to tell him that , are we ?” She scoffs and I shake my head .

“Hell no , we are never seeing him again .” I smile and she nods , “Good , now get up there , get dressed , get ready and become the best Luna under this sun , because I know you can .” She pulls me into a hug and I can’t help but tear up a bit .

“I love you .” I mutter and she nods , “And I love you .” She sniffs , making me laugh .

“Don’t cry .” I push her back and she wipes her cheek , pointing up the stairs .

“Go .” She demands and I smile before running up the stairs .

Today is the day , today I am going to become Luna , a good one , one that everyone loves and cares for .

This is my home , my heart , my destiny .
