The Alpha's Rejected Heir

Chapter Chapter Seventeen



Alessandro’s POV My throat feels like a desert my body feels heavy and this damned beeping thing is really starting to tick me off, I open my eyes only to close them again because of the blinding light. I slowly open my eyes letting them adjust to the brightness of my surroundings, looking around the room I'm wondering where the heck am I, I look at my hands to see a big ass needle in it following the tubes with my eyes I see an IV then I look at my body to see my attire, I'm in a gown so I drew the conclusion that am in the hospital. As far as I can see I don't have any injuries and i don't feel any pain so the million dollar question is why am I here. Turning to my right I see a button above my bed from my knowledge of what I see in movies I assume it's that button patients use to request a nurse or doctor I press it once and wait a few minutes, it looks like my guess paid off because in no time a nurse rushes into my room a look of surprise on her face when she see's me sitting upright In the bed. Ignoring her expression I try to tell her that I need water but my voice only comes out as a hoarse rumble, she seems to get the message though as she pulls herself together then walk over to a jug filled with the precious liquid I'm in dire need of. Pouring a tall glass she hands it to me and I down it in one go requesting another, my voice a bit more comprehensible, i drink my fill of the second glass as the nurse checks my vitals "Why am in the hospital and how long have I been here" I ask, I could smell she was a wolf so I know she won't beat around the bush to tell me the issue "You've been here for almost a week now, as for the reason according to your doctor who transferred you here your wolf was in extreme pain which caused you to fall into a coma" she replied. At the mention of pain images of me taking away Isabelle’'s own came to mind then everything rushed back giving me a colossal headache. Holding my head I asked the nurse to call my mom, she left to fulfill my request after instructing to me lay down, I complied and felt my throbbing headache subside gradually. I try to remember what happened that day but after the crowd started gathering everything else is a fog, I don't understand why I'd be in the hospital for taking away some of Isabelle’s pain then it clicks, someone must have interrupted us. As soon as that revelation came to me the room door slams open and my mother is standing in the doorway breathing frantically. "Oh my baby your awake" she says in disbelief "hey mom" I reply Tears fell down her face as she threw herself at me bawling her eyes out "Oh my beautiful boy I missed you so much” she cried "it's ok mom am right here" I soothed. "y-you were unconscious for so long I thought you'd never wake up" she says as her cries turn to sniffles "What are you talking about have you forgotten the promise I made you?" I asked "I told you mom not even death can separate us no matter where i go or what happens to me I want you to always wait for me momma because I'll always come back to you, you are the most important person in my life and when I do find my mate the both of you will be the people I live for so don't you ever think I will leave you not now not ever." "Spoken like a true man" a voice says making my mom and I look towards the door I see uncle micheal and Jermaine as well as aunt Gen and Isabelle smiling at us with unshed tears in their eyes. They make their way over to us as mom sits up on the bed giving everyone space to gather around, they all give me hugs saying how much they missed me well all except for Isabelle she stood at the edge of the bed with her head hung low looking at the floor like it's the most interesting thing in the world. "Hey Isabelle” I say bringing her attention to me, tears shower her face as she sobbed "I'm so sorry Alessandro if it wasn't for me you wouldn't have been in a coma I totally understand if you hate me afterall I deserve it" We all looked at her stunned, why would she say something like that I need to fix this right now. Getting up from the bed I walk towards her and pull her into my arms "I would never hate you Isabelle besides your the one who should be mad at me I bit off more than I could chew so I'm not mad at you alright I'm angry at myself" I told her she nods into my chest breathing a sigh of relief. I look over at my mom to see glaring daggers at Jermaine I wonder what's up with them, oh well I'll just ask later. After our emotional moments the doctor came back to run a final check up then he discharged me. Mom gave me some clothes she had left here in a bag so I went to the bathroom and change, stepping back into the room I see only my mom and aunt gen, there was something weird about her it was in her smell something about it changed. I focus my senses to pick up what it was, if I was drinking something I'd surely choke on it right now I can't believe aunt gen is pregnant I wonder if uncle micheal knows she doesn't seem to be that far along I wonder if she knows "Aunt gen” I say wondering if I should ask her "Yes Alessandro is something wrong?" She asks "No not at all I was just wondering if you knew that your pregnant” I stated bluntly, She and mom looked at me in shock "h-how did you know"aunt gen stuttered "You smell different” I shrugged placing the gown in a hamper by the door. "Did you tell uncle micheal as yet" I inquired "I was gonna tell him but Jermaine told us something happened at the hospital so we rushed here before I could” she replied "So why don't you go tell him now" I ask $he looked between me and my mom nervousness all over her face "it's ok gen remember what I told you" mom said to her she nodded and walked out the door to go give her husband to be the good news. As mom gathered the rest of out stuff I say to her "hey momma what's going on with you and Jermaine?" She paused for a second then said "nothing, what makes you think something is going on" I knew she was lying because that's the only time she avoids my gaze when talking to me, it's her tell. "Well the last time I saw you guys you were acting like love sick puppies and now it's like you can't stand to be in the same room with him and don't think I've missed those daggers you keep glaring at him" I say letting her know she’s been caught red-handed. She sighed pinching the bridge of her nose I smirked knowing I've won so she'll tell me what's really going on. "After you started taking away Izzy's pain her idiot father pulled your claws out her neck disrupting the process almost killing you both, needless to say I beat the crap out of him so ke'shaun said that after you woke up you and I couldn't stay at the pack house anymore that made micheal angry but I didn't wait I left immediately. Jermaine and I well we kinda started dating we were taking things slow, when we left the hospital earlier today I went to the pack house because Genevieve had called me to help her with some wedding stuff after we were finish I went to Jermaine's room to find him making out with some blonde we were arguing when the nurse called me and I rushed over here" she says in one breath. This revelation left me speechless, why the hell would he do that to my mom It seems like all the men in that family are pure bred assholes, I swear I will kick his ass the moment i walked through those doors. I don't tell my mom that though because I know she'll try to stop me. Hugging her I say "It's ok mom he didn't deserve you anyway," Somehow I feel like this is my fault if I hadn't opened my big mouth that day none of this would be happening. Mom and I leave the hospital room and enter the lobby, she goes to the reception desk to sign me out, I spot Jermaine outside the door so I speed walk over outside the moment i saw him "Hey Alessandro--" he was cut off by a punch in the nose "Alessandro what the hell! Why did you hit me?" He yelled "That's for cheating on my mom you bastard" I shot back walking away. Mom led me to a black Jeep, I hopped into the passenger side as she made her way to the driver's seat "Bye Isabelle” I called out as we drove away glaring at Jermaine in the process.

Jermaine's pov I can't believe Alessandro punched me and damn that boy has a powerful right hook. I can't believe the predicament I'm in fate is really a cruel thing just a couple hours ago I was happy with the woman of my dreams and now both her and her son hates me why can't I catch a break. "You know you need to fix this right" Isabelle commented "I know izzy I just don't know how Rosalyn won't even look at me unless it's to glare daggers my way and now Alessandro hates me" I say "I have an idea, go home take a shower dress in something nice casual but nice I'm gonna invite Rosalyn Alessandro Genevieve and micheal out to that new café my friends and I hang out at, tonight is karaoke night so meet us there around 8 I'll sign you up for a song under another name and text it to you so it doesn't look suspicious then when it's your turn you sing your apology to Rosalyn” she schemes "Wow that's actually a great idea thanks so much izzy" I say giving her a hug See what I mean best little sister in the world. We reach home and izzy runs out of the vehicle to set her plan into motion starting with Genevieve as I park in the garage and head inside to get ready it's almost seven and it's an half hour drive to the café so I don't have much time plus I had to think of the perfect song. I'm about to walk up the stairs when I heard ke'shaun say "Jermaine stop” I sigh wondering what he wants now I don't have time for chit chat. I turn around to see him looking rigid like a rogue crossed the border and escaped or something I hope it isn't that because I need Izzy for the plan to work and he won't let her leave if that's the case. "I heard the conversation you and Rosalyn had today before she left is it true are you really in a relationship with my mate” Wait is that what he's here to talk about well I should have expected as much also did I hear him refer to Rosalyn as his mate? "First of all ke'shaun she isn't your mate you rejected her 17 years ago and you had the chance for weeks now to take it back and you didn't instead you insult and accuse her and your son you let the pack spread all sorts of nasty rumors about them especially your so called luna amber who might I remind you is the one you chose to be your mate. So to answer your question yes Rosalyn and I are in a relationship.” I retorted "She is my mate Mine you can't be with her what kind of person gets together with their brothers mate Alessandro is your nephew and you knew I was gonna try and get Rosalyn back and take back my rejection and yet you still betrayed me" he shouted "Ha betray you!!! That's a laugh your the one doing all the betraying brother first you did it to mom playing the guilt card all those years ago to get her to forgive dad even though she was miserable and wanted to leave him because even though he apologized he still continued to cheat, I bet you thought I didn't know right then you betrayed Rosalyn and your son, besides how were you planning on getting her back when you've made no attempt to; all you do is hurt them. I have loved Rosalyn since junior high and imagine my surprise when I found out she was your mate it broke my heart but because your my brother i buried my feelings and what irked me the most was that you had the audacity to reject the most beautiful woman in the world who provided you with an amazing son you had everything I wanted and you threw it away for some rich bitch because of your mates status in society because she wasn't rich enough or came from a high end family." I retorted "How dare you try to use mom and dad's relationship against me" he yelled "I did what was best for this family dad couldn't rule without a Luna the pack would fall apart and you and I were kids we needed our mother so don't act like this is all my fault if you had kept your big mouth shut they wouldn't have separated in the first place everyone has to make sacrifices in life and thats why I made amber the luna we would only rule as comrades but that's something you wouldn't understand. Also if your so in love with Rosalyn then how come she caught you kissing Cassidy huh” he replied "You can make all the excuses you want ke'shaun the fact is you always do what dad says no matter who it hurts because deep down the both of you are cut from the same cloth and your saying I know nothing of sacrifices but you couldn't be anymore wrong brother do you know how many times I walked in on mom cutting her self she was depressed and dying on the inside day by day she even tried to commit suicide once luckily i was there to stop her you have no idea what it's like growing up watching your mother suffer and couldn't do a damned thing to help her. Also I didn’t cheat on Rosalyn Cassidy hid in my room and jumped me like some kind of dog, she was the one who kissed me and when I tried to push her off she stuck her claws in my shoulders to keep me in place.” I walked away after I said my peace but was once again interrupted "Well whatever happened with you and Rosalyn it's too late now because neither of us can have her dad has forbidden us from seeing her and if you do he'll have you banished" he says "Oh really is that coming from my father or the alpha well either way I don't care I will be with Rosalyn whether you and dad like it or not besides that little threat doesn't scare me this pack isn't the only one I know I've made alliances with packs all over the world so if I'm banished I still won't be a rogue” I reply then continued my journey up the stairs before he could hinder me any longer. I see Genevieve at the top of the stairs looking at me I know she heard everything but I don't care right now all I need is Rosalyn. Hastening my steps I walked pass her she turned to me and asked "You really didn't cheat on Rosie did you" Sighing softly I say "No Genevieve I didn't" "I believe you I knew you wouldn't do something like that so I'm gonna help you get her back, were going to this café in town tonight izzy invited us why don't you tag along and I'll pull rose away from the crowd so you guys can talk" she replied It's basically the same as Izzy's plan so I nod my head and express my thanks then walked to my room to get ready I just really hope tonight goes as planned.
