I Rejected You, Alpha

AIDEN’S POV

—

A argument breaks out near the bar, almost everyone is glancing in that direction as you could hear the woman’s voice become louder, more angrier. “What is going on?” Eleia grits out, her feet stopped moving as she stares into the direction of the bar, “I have no idea.” I too stop moving.

It’s differently when standing at a door, greeting everyone than to be personally talking to them, “Is there something wrong with my ring?” Luna Claire asks, “Unfortunately, yes. We can’t sell it to you tonight.” Eleia holds her hands in front of her, smiling graciously, “Why not? Did it break? I would be happy to still take it and get it fixed.” Claire urges. “No, it did not break.” Eleia is trying her best to keep her cool, I can see it in her eyes, “Then why can’t we have it? I already paid for it.” Alpha Jack grits out, “We already refunded the money back to your account, I’m sorry but I owe you no explanation.” Eleia says, her smile fading, “It’s my fault.” the girl deadpans and Eleia’s head snaps into her direction and I swear she was ready to rip her head off, “Excuse me?” Luna Claire asks, her eyes narrowing. “It’s my ring and my i***t mate gave it up for this auction without permission and it was my mothers and I need it back.” she blurts, glancing between my angry mate and the confused Claire.

“Well dear, that does sound like a you problem. I paid for it.” Luna Claire steps forward, wanting to intimidate the younger Luna.

“Enough.” Eleia bellows, “It is not your ring to take home.” she tells Luna Claire, “And I really am sorry, but this is a charity, not a selfish bar.” she deadpans and I’m howling inside my head as I bite down on my cheek to stop my laughter.

Eleia turns to the young girl, “Take your ring and your mate and go home.” she demands, turning to Claire, “And take your selfish, unbothered heart and leave. That is the only thing she has of her mother and you sicken me. Have you never lost a parent? A loved one?” she glares at the older couple who is staring at her with wide eyes, “How dare you?” Alpha Jack seethes, “It’s ‘how dare you my Queen’ to you.” she growls, holding her head high and I could feel my balls tighten.

“Leave.” she growls and Luna Claire scoffs, whipping around and walks out of here with a sour look on her face.

As they walk off, Eleia blows out a breath, rolling her eyes before she sits down. “I want to go home.” she looks up at me through her lashes.

I smile, gently hooking my finger below her chin, “Then we go home, it’s your party and you can leave if you want to.” I wink, making her giggle. I love to see her happy, I love her smile and the sound of her giggle, it’s all so breathtaking.

“Let’s go.” I hold my hand out to her and she takes my hand, standing up before her head glances around, “I just want to tell Rosie we’re leaving.” she mutters until she tenses at the sight of her best friend and my own aggressively making out in the corner still.

Rosie’s dress is riled up and if it weren’t for Stefan’s body hiding hers, a lot of people would have seen a lot of things.

Eleia whips around with wide eyes, “Oh my.” she mutters stunned and I chuckle, “Let them be, it is a nightclub after all.” I tease and take her purse before we leave the party.
