Rejected To Be Your Second Chance: Rejecting My Alpha Mate

Rejected To Be Your Second Chance: Chapter 39



~Kade’s POV~

The vase came flying at my head and broke into shards that scattered in every direction. The TV had a big hole in it from the clock that took a hit and, and a chair was currently being smashed against the table, which surprisingly remained unscathed

Only when the chair was completely demolished did Anna fall back a step. Her eyes glowed, and her canines were extended. She lifted her arm and slammed her fist down on the table, breaking it in two. Cara leaned back against the wall, arms crossed over her chest, and her gaze fixed on the floor.

Mason was watching from over by the couch, and none of us said a word. We just let her get it out of her system.

”How are you feeling?” I asked. And Anna took a deep breath, growling as she turned to me

Anna’s eyes slowly went back to their former shape and color and her canines were retracted. Drops of sweat pearled on her foreheads and her hair was hanging heavy in a tussle at the back of her head.

”Better. I still want to kill you, but I’m feeling better.” I nodded, unable to do anything but agree with her.

”Is everything alright in here?” I closed my eyes and hung my head. Anna growled loudly and grabbed a stick from the broken chair, flinging it at Danielle who was standing behind me.

My hand shot out, catching it, and I slowly lifted my head and stared at her. Anna charged towards Danielle, but I reached out, the stick fell from my hands as I grabbed Anna’s shoulders to stop her.

”Calm down.” I growled.

Cara approached and pulled Anna to her.

”Danielle you should leave,” she placed some hair behind her ear and looked up at me through her lashes.

”Sure, I just heard a lot of loud noises and growling so i though I’d check up on you and make sure everyone was okay.”

”We’re fine.” Mason said coldly from over by the couch. She nodded her head and pinched her lips together.

Cara had her hand on Anna’s wrist and I was hoping she wouldn’t let go, not because I was afraid of what she’d do to Danielle but what Danielle would do to her.

”I think I’ll leave then,” I bowed my head and kept my eyes locked on her as she turned and walked away.

”Fuck,” i clenched my fists, struggling to restrain self from breaking any additional item in his room.

”Who’s coming?” We heard tires screeching on the gravel up to the house.

A black sedan stopped with the gold plated lion head shining on the hood.

The door opened and Cara ran down the stairs in glee. Mason tapped my shoulder and chuckled before following after her.

”Who are they?” Anna stood beside me and ogled the passengers that stepped out when the guard opened their doors.

”Our parents,” I said, and her eyes widened a fraction. she discreetly covered her bloody knuckles behind her back. ”Kade, come down here!” Nodding my head I walked past Anna and stepped down to meet my parents who had been gone for almost a year.

”Son, it’s good to see you,’ my father exclaimed, slapping his hand down on my shoulder. He stood a few mere inches taller than me but oozed authority and power without even trying. He was the man I always wanted to make proud, the one I worked for when I stayed up nights and days for weeks to prove myself ready for the privilege and role of Alpha of the pack.

”It’s good to see you too,” I replied, clapping his shoulder and pulling him in for a hug.

”Kade,” my mother pulled my father aside and cupped my cheeks.

Her brows furrowed, and her emerald green eyes bore into mine, scanning my face. She tilted my head back, and dragged her fingers over my stubble.

”What’s wrong?” She asked softly, while pulling my head back down again.

”What happened while we were gone?” Nothing ever went past her. She was the one that would force me to go to sleep after having stayed up for days. She was the one who saw when i hadn’t eaten because i was wrapped up in the office and there was no discussion either she tell you me and my siblings to sleep or to eat and that would be it.

”A lot,” Mason spoke up on my behalf, relieving me of the burden of explaining the events that had unfolded during their absence.

”Maybe we should take this inside, yes?” I suggested. My father nodded his head and placed his hand on my mothers back.

The door to my office closed, and my father strutted around looking at the little changes I had made in his absence.

”It looks good, much more suited for you now.” He said in a chuckle but I could detect a hint of envy and sadness in his eyes.

My father didn’t want to step down, but every leader must know when their time is up and he did. ”Tell us what happened, son.”

”I was mated to another, a- a second mate.” I sighed, and shook my head when I thought about telling them the story of what happened while they were gone.

My mother removed her jacket and hung it over the chair. Normally, when she received good news, she was louder and happier than anyone in the room, regardless of whether or not she knew the person but especially so when it was one of her children. But this time, she remained void and calm because she knew that what was meant to be happy news had taken a bad turn. She could read us like open books and knew more about our pages than we did ourselves. ”What did you do?” She asked in a monotone voice as she crossed her arms over her chest. ”I fucked up.”

”Language.” She scolded and lifted a brow.

I nodded my head and looked around the room.

”Sorry. Her name is Layla, I found her during the Meeting of Alphas at Alpha Sebastians pack. She, apparently, was mated to him first but they rejected each other.” My mother looked might unimpressed and lifted her head with a scolding gaze.

”It’s a lovely little history lesson you’ve given us here but why don’t you skip ahead to how you ruined it.” Cara shrunk in her seat and Mason tried looking anywhere but at us. It didn’t matter how old we got, parents were parents, especially our mother.

”Danielle came back.” I confessed. My mothers chest heaved, and her jaw dropped to the floor. My father shifted in his seat and placed his hands on his knees as he stood tall.

”Please tell me you did not invite her back.” My mom whispered. At that moment, there was a knock on the office door, and I saw Anna staring at me through the glass. She had showered, clearly not wanting my parents to see her covered in blood and sweat.

I nodded my head, and Anna stepped inside. My parents turned their heads and carefully looked between us.

My mom, in her usual poise, got up and walked over with a soft smile.

”I’m Elisabeth and who may you be?” She greeted Anna, extending her hand. Anna shook her hand. ”Anna, I came here with Layla,” Anna replied. That seemed to pull my mom back to the conversation. She turned with a scowl that seemed to carry a lifetime of disapproval,and I instinctively pressed back against the desk.

”Maybe we should continue.” She suggested.
