SWNOVELS Chapter 31
31-The Brutal Rejection
"What should be done!" He mumbled, "I, Alpha King Maddox Spade, reject Beatrice Mintz as my mate." He finished, and unfiltered tears rushed out of my eyes onto my expressionless face.
"You heard me, I reject you!" he shouted, and that's when I woke up from the state of trance.
"What?" I stepped back, staring at his face with tears in my eyes. This is not what I expected from my mate.
"I reject you!" he repeated, but didn't wince. Being an Alpha King has given him the advantage of not feeling any pain even after breaking the mate bond with his mate.
Of course, he expected me to feel pain whenever my wolf awakes, but for now, all I could feel was heartbreak and disappointment. He was supposed to keep me protected and safe, not reject me. It was then that I felt like I didn't need him anymore.
"I accept your rejection," I muttered while looking back into his eyes with anger. He broke the bond with me, so I don't need him. I still have three other mates.
I noticed the frown on his forehead before he scoffed and grabbed my arm with force.
"Good! Now get the fuck out of here." His words gave me an idea of his plans. He didn't only plan to reject me, he wanted me out of their lives. His and his brother's lives.
"No! Mom said this is my home now." I refused to go. Was he really expecting me to walk out on my own on such a dark and stormy night?
"Your mom and you can go to hell." He grabbed my arm again after I had freed myself and dragged me to the door, but I resisted. "What are you doing?" I let out a cry, fighting to get his hand off me, but his powerful wolf gave him an advantage over me.
"Get the hell out of my and my brother's lives," he grumbled, holding my arm and tugging me after him.
"No!" I fought again, trying to grab whatever I could come in contact with, but he would unwrap my fingers from around the source and pull me after him once again. The loud noise from the rain and thunderstorm outside was frightening, and he was going to kick me out.
Once I was outside the mansion and he was dragging me on the front walkway to the white fence gate, I felt the strong wind and goosebumps covered my body.
The night looked scary, with red clouds wrapping the sky like a blanket.
"I am scared of the night, Maddox!" I begged him, but he cold-heartedly shoved me out of the gate and locked it from the inside. I could still see him, but there was no way I could get inside anymore. "Now go back to whoever is looking for you because we brothers are not taking care of you." He didn't know what he was talking about. I didn't know who was coming for me; I just knew whoever it was meant harm to
me.
"Maddox! Please don't leave me out here," I pleaded through sobs with my hands wrapped around the bars. He didn't stay to see what condition he had left me in and walked inside the mansion. Upon turning around, I saw the tall trees staring at me in the dark. Everything seemed alive and angry with me.
"How am I going to survive the night?" My tears choked me as the shattering words escaped my lips. I was petrified of the dark road ahead. Every few seconds, it seemed like something was rushing over to get me. Frightened of my shadow, I decided to get moving. Standing in one spot and crying will do nothing for me. With that and other countless fears filling my head, I sauntered all the way to the backside of the mansion. The mansion must be some million square feet. There was a lot of space for me in the mansion, but he was so cold-hearted that he just wanted me gone.
From the worrisome day to the night of rejection, I went through all of it alone. I must have walked for hours in order to reach the backside due to the breaks I took for crying and hiding for over twenty minutes wheneve I heard a rustle behind me.
Now that I had successfully reached the backside, I sat down. on the bench behind a wooden wall. The backside was much cozier than the front. While hugging my knees and shaking hysterically, I saw what was written on the small wall.
"The noble warriors fought the evil creatures so that werewolves could rule the earth once again,"
I bet it was about their parents. They have fought in a war together. How does one split from their mate, who they have children with?
My head was hurting from the icy wind. It was almost as if something was absorbing the wind inside me, but my human body could not process it. I soon began coughing and sneezing. My eyes felt heavy when they burned. The rain had left me miserable.
I must be getting sick from the cold.
I could no longer fear who was coming to get me because I wasn't even in a state of processing what was happening around me. My body was tired now and my eyes felt heavy. I slowly leaned over the bench and closed my eyes. I couldn't move a muscle for hours because of how lifeless I felt.
"What the fuck is wrong with you, Maddox?" A loud grunting voice jolted me awake from the half-sleepy state I was in.
I opened my eyes to all the commotion happening around me.
"Beatrice!" I heard somebody calling my name in the distance.
"This is for the best," Maddox yelled at his brothers, whoever was accusing him of making a mistake.
"Beatrice! Where are you?" I recognized the voice to be Zane's voice, followed by Helel and Akin's loud voices calling for me.
I wanted to get up and answer them because I needed care at the moment. However, I couldn't. And then I heard the rumblings grow as Zane began to appear in my sight from a distance.
