I Rejected You, Alpha

Chapter 32



ELEIA’S POV

Something about how Aiden is acting and not looking at me is ticking me off .

I know that he isn’t happy about the kid might being Regan’s , but what am I suppose to do ?

I sit on the chair in the kitchen , fiddling with my thumbs as Rosie sits right next to me , going on about how rude Aiden was when he came down stairs and then Stefan left with him , she’s explaining that how important it is to her that Stefan stands up for her , but with everything going on , it’s like the information is coming through one ear and leaving the other .

I get what she means , but it’s not something that will keep me up at night .

I hear the front door open and shut , my head turning to the side and I see both of the men coming into the kitchen with blank expressions .

Aiden squeezes my shoulder before walking past me , “So I was thinking that maybe we can make burgers ?” He shrugs and my eyes are glued to the table beneath my hands , “Sure .” I shrug .

The intensity in the room just keeps on growing , or it’s me imagining things .

“I’ll help .” Rosie stands and Stefan doesn’t stop her , but I know if I tried to help , I’d be out on the counter top like a trophy to look at .

“Aren’t you going to help ?” Rosie asks and before I could say anything , Aiden jumps to the answer first , “No , she needs rest .” He deadpans , his tone leaving no room for arguments .

My gaze lifts to my best friend and I raise my brows at her before continuing to fidget with my fingers .

“Why does she need to rest ?” Rosie abruptly asks and my eyes have never flicked to Aiden that fast .

“Because she passed out .” He explains , “But she took a nap already .” Rosie argues and I feel like kissing my best friend right now .

Now I get what she meant earlier that it’s important for Stefan to stand up for her , because it feels good , it feels empowering to know that you aren’t alone .

“I guess if she feels up to it then it’s fine , but it’s best to stay off her feet .” He shrugs and I roll my eyes , “So what am I then ? A Luna or just a trophy ?” I shrug , c*****g my head at him and his eyes widen as he stares at me with a shocked expression .

“Of course you’re my Luna .” He shakes his head and Stefan is awkwardly standing in the fridge with the crumbed chicken patties in his hands , “Then why can’t I help ?” I ask , my shoulder raising as my body tenses .

Every fibre of my body just wants to do something , but Aiden doesn’t want me to .

“All I’m saying is that you’re planning that party and I can cook , I don’t see why you need to . You both actually , because you worked for most of your life and I just wanted to give you a little vacation .” He shrugs and I don’t know how I can explain to him how weird it feels to do so much every single day that when I don’t do something , it’s like a bomb in my mind .

“We get that , but we’re wired to do something , everything actually , all day every day .” Rosie chips in and I just stare at Aiden until he sighs , giving up .

“Alright , I’m sorry . I was just trying to do something nice .” He turns and grabs frozen buns out of the fridge .

I stand and round the counter , helping Rosie cut the tomatoes , lettuce , cheese and everything else as the two men fry the patties and toast the buns .

We all ate while watching a stupid show about a wizard before we cleaned up and we head back to bed .

I wouldn’t admit it , but doing everything after eating so much is kind of exhausting .

It’s like my stomach just wants to drag me to bed and tangle me in the duvet so I can’t get out .

After I roll into bed , I immediately fall asleep as my head hits the pillow .

Glancing down at my big stomach , feeling the little butterfly kicks , I can’t help but feel pure joy towards my baby boy . He sometimes have a strong kick , but when it’s so little like this , it warms my heart .

“Hello love .” Two strong arms wrap around me , tingling sensations running down my arms and spine .

“Hi .” I beam , feeling love and care .

“I’m so happy you chose me .” Aiden’s voice sounds a little bit different , but I don’t lay much attention to it as I lay back into his embrace .

“Me too .” I sigh in relief , calmness taking over my heart .

“What are you doing Eleia ?” Aiden’s normal voice rings through my ears in a heartbroken tone and when I lift my gaze , he’ standing with red eyes in front of me , his hostile glare boring down into my eyes .

“Aiden ?” I frown in confusion , sitting up right and I turn to look behind me , finding Regan holding onto my bump , smiling at me with a devilish grin .Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

“You’re mine , remember ?” Regan’s haunting voice makes my heart rate spike , “No !” I shriek , turning back to look in front of me , finding Aiden walk away , leaving me in the hands of this monster .

“Let go !” I elbow Regan in the ribs , making him grunt as his hands fall off me and I stand up , feeling like I’m carrying a bulldozer in my stomach as I try to run after Aiden .

“Aiden wait !” I scream at the top of my lungs as tears run down my cheeks .

I need my mate , I need Aiden .

“You can’t take my child away from me slut !” Regan growls behind me and the floor beneath me opens , swallowing me whole .

I fall into the abyss , screaming as I beg for someone to save my child .

Two strong arms catch me and when I open my eyes , Aiden is staring at me with a loving smile .

My mate caught me , he still loves me .

I sigh in relief , my hand falling onto my stomach and my eyes dart to where my bump should be , my stomach flat .

Where’s my baby ?

“Aiden .” My bottom l*p trembles in fear and he puts me down , his arm swinging over my shoulder .

“It’s okay , it’s his heir .” He mutters , placing a soft k**s on my temple .

“What ?” I stomp away from him , his concerned filled eyes making me want to cry .

“Where’s our baby ?” I yell , my words echoing around me .

“It’s not our baby Eleia , it’ Regan’s .” His eyes narrow .

I spin around , finding Regan walking away with his arms cradling a baby , my baby .

“Regan !” I roar out of anger , the floor shaking beneath me .

I try to run to him , to get my child , but two large hands grab me , holding me back .

“Eleia , let it go . That is not our child , we will have our own some day .” Aiden’s soothing words does nothing to heal my breaking heart .

“No , he’s mine ! That’s my baby !” I sob , my head shaking frantically .

“No , it’s not .” His tone is cold and emotionless .

I turn to face him , his face expressionless , his eyes cold .

“That is his child , that child does not belong in my pack .” He seethes .

“This is our pack , it’s mine too and that is my child !” I yell in his face , turning to find nothing .

Regan is gone , my child is gone , my heart is gone .

I fall to my knees , crying .

“Eleia !” A loud roar has me sitting up right as I shake , sweat coating my skin as Aiden’s ocean orbs stare down at me , “Calm down .” His hands cup my cheek and my eyes flick down to my stomach as my hands feel a flat tummy .

“My baby , where’s my baby ?” I yell out of anger and he frowns at me in confusion , “In your tummy ,still growing , calm down . It was just a nightmare .” He runs his thumb over my cheek repeatedly .

“No , Regan , he has my child , you …you let him take my child !” I slap his hand away , glaring at him with hatred .

“Eleia , it was a nightmare , you haven’t even started showing yet !” He yells back and I glance down , placing my hand against my stomach .

Right , I didn’t have my baby yet… I didn’t give birth yet.. I just found out .

My hands grab the sides of my head , “I’m sorry .” I mutter as I look down at the duvet .

“It’s okay , it felt real , it’s normal .” He talks me down as my breathing decreases , his hand rubbing circles on my back .

It’ still dark out , but it could be morning , it could be day time .

“Relax , let’s go take a shower and then I’ll go make some hot chocolate for us , alright ?” He smiles and I nod before he helps me out of the bed and towards the bathroom .
