I Rejected You, Alpha

ELEIA’S POV

—

I smile through out the rest of the night, my body feeling great since I have been doing more , eating the right amount of food.

Aiden has his hand on the small of my back, making me giggle when his fingers trail down my spine and back up as we talk to a few pack members.

The tension between us grows with every tug he pulls me closer with, the way his hand roam my body and when he looks at me with those sparkling blue eyes, they bore into my soul, making every nerve burn with fire and tension.

People rotate to talk to us, congratulating us on our baby, talking about small problems with living situations and jobs.

After a few moments, Aiden stops the rest of the people approaching us, his strong aura making people squirm into the other direction. He turns us, walking me towards the house when we take a sharp turn and leads me into the dark shadows beside the house.

“What are we doing?” I giggle, glancing over my shoulder at the rest of the pack partying and enjoying themselves, not once noticing we left.

“Taking a break.” he breathes out in a low tone.

I look up at him and his eyes are dark as his hand lowers to my behind, his other hand resting on my waist, his fingers digging into my skin.

He turns us in a blink of an eye and my back is pushed against the cold wall. His knee is pressed in between mine, parting my legs as his hand on my back trails up my side, cupping the side of my neck before his fingers rake into my hair, gripping me tightly as he crashes his lips against mine in hunger and desperation.

I m**n against his lips as tingles erupt all over my skin, making heat run up my spine and settle in my cheeks.

“Why didn’t you tell me?” his voice is low, his aura making me shiver. Even though I am his mate and his Luna, it doesn’t hide the fact that I am a low life omega, still feeling his aura just like the rest of my kind.

“I, I’m s-sorry.” I mutter as he grips my chin, tilting my head up , “I’m not mad.” his eyes are pitch black and I gulp with parted lips.

“You aren’t?” my eyebrows furrow. “No, it’s cute you wanted to surprise me.” his head dips and he brushes his nose against mine.

My eyes fall shut as I giggle, “Actually, it’s hot.” he growls lowly, making heat spread to my core as he slowly places his lips against mine, sucking on my bottom l*p.

“f*****g hell,” he mutters, his hot breath fanning my mouth. He lowers, hooking his large hands behind my thighs before hoisting me up, barricading me between his body and the wall. My dress is lifted and my soaked panties are pressed against his trousers, his hard shaft that’s straining his pants rubs against the soaked material, denting it and his hard c**k presses against my entrance through the material.

The music gets louder as he dry humps me against the wall, my underwear completely soaked with his fingers wrap around my throat, pulling me closer to him. The entire world drowns out as we make out and I feel like a kid sneaking around, it’s the best feeling because I never had this…

There were male slaves too, but they were sleeping somewhere else, somewhere outside in a building built for them, they had to do all the shitty work around the pack, clean, cut grass, help build homes and more and we never interacted with them, well I never did, but I once walked into a bathroom where one of my bullies were having s*x with one of them, it was humiliating and I froze when I walked in. I probably stood there, watching for a few minutes until she sawed me, but instead of stopping , she grinned, asking me if I were jealous and the older omega turned , smirking at me and asked if I wanted to join, but that’s when my bully lost her mind and attacked me at night in the shower.

I stare up at the moon as Aiden’s lips leave wet k****s all over my neck, something drawing me back to Regan’s place.

I try to shove the thoughts down, but I can’t help but picture the photo I once found in the old alpha and luna’s room as my eyes fall shut.

Aiden suddenly stops, pulling his head back as he captures my chin between his thumb and index finger. “What’s wrong? Aren’t you into this?” the frown written over his face makes me pale. “I am, I just..” I stare up at the moon before looking back at him, ” I just thought of something, but nevermind.” I shake my head, trying to reach up to k**s him again, but he doesn’t let me. He pushes me back, letting me down and I stare up at him with a worried expression. We just got better, I don’t want to ruin everything.

“Eleia..” his head tilts to the side, his blue eyes piercing down into mine with concern, but there’s more to it.

“Aiden.” saying his name is breathless, it came out as a whisper as his entire aura overtakes me.

“Talk to me…” he begs, cupping my cheek and I lean into his embrace, loving the warmth and safe feeling.

“I can’t explain it because I don’t know…” I shake my head and he frowns, confusion taking over his entire expression.

“Come.” his hand slides down my neck, down my arm and our fingers interlock before he turns and we head back to the party.

We tried to enjoy the rest of the night, well I tried, it looks like he’s fearless about what’s going on around here.

“Rosie.” I sit down next to her as she feeds Duncan, lifting her gaze to me momentarily as she smiles, “Look, it’s auntie Leia.” Rosie beams and I can’t help but smile at her. She’s a good mum, and to think she thought she couldn’t get pregnant…look at her now, a good overprotective mom.

She wouldn’t even let me hold him for more than ten minutes, hell , she wouldn’t let Stefan hold him for that long.

“Hi buddie.” I rub my fingers over his tiny hand while he sips on his bottle.

“What’s up?” Rosie grins at me, “Where did you two run off two?” she asks with a knowing look and my cheeks heat of embarrassment at the thought that she knew, but then again, her thoughts would make it way worse than it actually was.

“We were making out next to the house.” I shrug, trying to act cool about it, “Just making out?” she asks and I roll my eyes at her, “Yes, there are people here.” I snort. “As if that would stop you.” she giggles.

She looks so happy and I’m about to ruin her good mood.

“We are not animals, the entire time,” I add and she shakes her head at me.

“What did you want?” she asks, glancing down at my stomach when my hands absentmindedly hold the nonexistent bump.

“And congratulations,” she adds before I could speak, “Thanks.” I wave the topic of my pregnancy off.

“Do you remember I told you about that one picture I found when I cleaned Regan’s parent’s closet one time?”

“The one of a family, but it wasn’t them?” She frowns at me and I could tell that she wished nothing more than to creep into my head and see what I am thinking.

“Yeah, I told you the little girl looked kinda like me?”

“Yeah? But what about it?”

“I just…I was looking at the moon while he was like kissing my neck and when my eyes fell shut… I saw it again, clearer and more intensely, as if the Moon Goddess wanted me to know something, like I should investigate.” I stare at her with wide eyes, hoping that she would at least understand where I’m coming from.

“Eleia..” she shakes her head, “What if it is you?” she asks, frowning. “Why would it matter? Your parents are dead. They were probably apart of the pack.” she shrugs .

“But what if they weren’t?”

She frowns, her lips parting before pressing into a thin line and she glances down at her son, pulling the bottle away when she notices him asleep.

“I get it, I would want to know too, but I do, I remember my parents before they died and you don’t really.” she shrugs, “But didn’t Aiden burn that place?”

“What if the picture survived? It was in a metal box in the closet.” I turn my entire body to her and I tense when Aiden’s arms wrap around my neck as he stands behind me, kissing the top of my head, “What’s in a metal box in a closet?” he asks, his lips moving against the top of my head.

I look at Rosie for help, because I want to tell him, but I not right now…

“I put Duncun’s hand prints and foot prints in a metal box in our closet.”Rosie lies , smiling at Aiden and he laughs, “Weird.” he comments before sitting down beside me.

“I’m kind of tired.” he mutters as his hand rests on my leg, but his fingers dig into my inner thigh.

“Then go sleep, it is late.” Rosie shrugs, staring at me.

“Yeah, I think we should go to bed.” I smile at him and he nods.

He stands, holding his hand out to me and I take it before smiling back at Rosie.

We walk towards the house when Rosie mind links me, ‘Are you even going to tell him?’ she asks sternly and I know that she wasn’t happy about lying to him. Lying to one’s alpha makes a person feel sick, like the betrayal is worse than anything.

‘I’ll tell him, I just didn’t want to in public.’ I reply before cutting the link and I ready myself to tell him as we walk into the house.

“Can we drink some hot coco?” I ask , stopping when he wants to lead me up the stairs.

“We can, afterwards.” he tugs me closer to him , his hand on my waist and his head dips before kissing me.

I press my hands to his firm chest, “Wait.” I push him away, lowering my chin as he tries to lean in again.

“What’s wrong?” he asks and I sigh, “Can we just talk? While making coco?” I point to the kitchen and he sighs, nodding.

He turns the kettle on while I grab the coco and milk along with little marshmallows and he turns, leaning against the counter with his ankles crossed over one another, “What’s this about?” he frowns and I think that he’s thinking it’s something terrible.

“Rosie lied to you earlier, about the metal box.” I sigh as I scoop coco into the large cups.

“I figured, what she said was…weird.” he scoffs, shaking his head. “Wait, you aren’t mad?” he frowns at me, shaking his head, “She’s your best friend.” he shrugs , making my heart flutter.

“Are you going to tell me what it’s about though?”

“Yes, yes I am…I just…I need to get my words right.” I add sugar to the cup.

“Well talk to me as if I were her, you seem to trust her more.” the pain in his voice makes me freeze and I turn my head, looking up at him.

“I trust you, I just don’t want you to get mad.” I explain, which makes his eyebrows furrow together, “Why do you think I’ll get mad?” , “Because I know you.” I argue and he sighs, nodding.

“I will try and control myself, alright?”

I inhale a deep breath , “When I was a teenager, I found a photo in a metal box in Regan’s parents room, I was cleaning their closet and I was the only one trusted to clean their room. And I didn’t think anything of the photo until I saw the little girl and I froze because she looked exactly like I do, just younger and I told Rosie about it and it lingered in my mind for a few months but I forgot about it.” I blurt out, talking fast and his eyes grow wide at the speed I’m talking in.

“Slower Eleia, breathe.” he frowns , but not because of what I am telling him, but how my heart take is spiking.

I nod, chewing on my bottom l*p, “And when we were making out, I stared at the moon and my eyes closed momentarily and I saw it again, almost more clearer than what I did so many years ago and I feel like it’s a sign.” I stop talking and stare at his mind spinning, his eyes flicking between mine as I stand next to him.

“You think it’s a sign? Of what?” he scoffs, “Maybe I could find out who my parents were, I don’t remember them, at all.” I frown and he sighs, raking a hand through his hair before his arms cross over his chest again.

“And you think it’s still in the place I burned?” he frowns, “It was in a metal box Aiden, what if it did survive? Wouldn’t that be a sign too?” I push, eager to just go and look for it.

“I guess, but what makes you want to know about your parents?” he frowns disapprovingly.

“I don’t know, but I can feel it in my heart…I need to do this.” my hand rests on my chest and I jolt as the sound of the button of the kettle switches off.

“I guess we can go look, but during the day. Burned and abandoned buildings are where rogues go to for shelter.”

I smile at him, “Can we go tomorrow?” I beam and he shrugs, “If the weather is right.” he nods and I wrap my arms around him, hugging into his arm .

“Alright alright, can we just drink our coco and sleep? All the information just made me tired.” He slips his arm out and hugs me back.

I nod, repeatedly thanking him.
