Chapter 3 Rejection
ELLE POV.
We just stood there looking at each for how long? I don't know.
It just feels like we are in our own world, no one there to interrupt us. Eva was more than happy, encouraging me to just take him right there and now. She is totally checking him out and by she I meant both of us. When he caught my eyes lingering over his body he raises an eyebrow with a look of annoyance and anger which totally snapped me out of my trance.
"Uh...hi" I started to nervously biting my bottom lip with my head held down.
"Bitch I told you to jump his bones not 'uh...hi' him." Eva scolded me.
I just ignored her knowing something bad was going to happen when he didn't answer. I dared myself to look up to just seeing him leaning on the wall with a bored look on his face.
"Look, I know that were mates and stuff but I don't want one and especially not you." He said 'you' with distaste that made my heart shatter and my wolf whimper.
"Wh...What?" I stuttered a whisper. This is exactly what I was trying to run from. I knew this was going happen, I just knew it.
"You heard me, I don't want you as a mate or the future Luna of my pack. So I am going to reject you." He said simply.
He said it like it was the easiest thing to do and by the look on his face, maybe it is. I knew why he was doing it, he thinks I'm too weak and worthless. A good for nothing piece of shit, which is what the pack thinks and they also said it to my face, so it wasn't a secret.
"I...I understand your doing this for the pack, I understand." I said swallowing the lump in my throat and blinking back my tears. I mostly said it to convince myself that was the reason.
"Yeah ok." He takes in a breath, then he continues. "I, Andrew Collin Walters, reject Elle Cora Cooper has my mate." He said with no emotion shown on his face.
I let out a small whimper when I felt both my wolf and I break emotionally from those words. I didn't want to look weaker than I already am in front of him so gathered all my courage and accepted my faith, which was to be alone and unloved.
"I, Elle Cora Cooper accept your rejection, Andrew Collin Walters." I said trying best not to break down in front of him, but the truth is I was broken on the inside already.
He looked surprised that I accepted it so quickly but covered it up with a blank expression. He took one longer look on my face looking for something maybe, when he didn't find it he just gave me one small nod before walking off. I was really good at keeping a blank face so he couldn't see how I really felt which I was thankful for.
I realized I was just standing in front of the janitors closet staring in to space. I quickly made my way up to the roof to bawl my eyes out, knowing that I am about to break down at that very moment.
Then one specific detail popped up in my head when I went over the event that just took place.
Who was the girl in the closet with him and what happened to her?
~~~~
It's now my last class of the day, thank the moon goddess. I could get out of this hell hole and cry my eyes out some more because all I feel is emptiness inside. I haven't heard anything from, Eva, since we've been rejected.
Ah! It even hurts just thinking about it and I know it hurts Eva worse than me because she just got rejected by her 'Soulmate'. To make it even worse, whoever that girl who was in the closet with Andrew totally heard what happen, so now everyone's going to know he rejected me. I know she is going to spread it, everyone in the school hates me and would love to humiliate me at any chance they get.
I don't know why they hate me so much. I lost my parents when I was 8 and everyone just started to give me the cold shoulder and because of that, I made myself a promise that I would hunt the people who took my parents away from me.
I was so caught up in my thoughts that I didn't even realized what was happening until my chemistry teacher, Ms. Redford called my name.
"Uh?" I asked looking confused at my teacher.
"I was just telling Mr. Walters to take a seat behind you." The teacher reminded me.
That's when I saw him, he had the same blank expression on his face he always had on. When our eyes met it just reminded me of what happened today and it made Eva whimper clearly still hurt. I couldn't keep putting her through this so I was the first to look away.
I am not going make him break me, well break me more than I already am.
I smell his beautiful scent as he came closer to me, it still has an affect on me. Even if one rejected the person, it would only stop if one marked another person or if one was marked.
I know, total bullshit.
The entire class I tried my best to ignore him which I did successful, well not exactly. Eva, kept whimpering and it started to hurt me too, so at one occasion I let out a small whimper. I hope to the goddess he didn't hear it.
The bell finally went off which I was thankful for. I was the first to get out of the class, desperate to get away from him. On my way to my locker people were laughing at something on their phones. There was no surprise that I didn't get anything on my phone because I am kept out of everything around here.
When I passed them they started to laugh even harder. That can't be good.
I nervously gulp and continued to walk towards my locker. I tried racking my brain to see if I know what their laughing but didn't get anything until I saw him again. Ugh! Why does he have to ruin my life?!
He is walking down the hall laughing with his friends, having no care in the world. They could even be laughing at how he rejected me. I finish putting my things in my locker wanting to get the hell out of here only for my locker to be slammed with a great force which got everyone's attention.
"Hey bitch, you done soaking in your own tears?" Emma taunts me with a bitchy smirk. She stands in front of me blocking my view of the exist.
"Look Emma, just leave me alone. Don't you think this is just childish?" I said clearly annoyed and exhausted. If you haven't realized I get annoyed real fast and when I'm annoyed, I get violent.
"Haha, aw, look it must be exhausting after getting rejected. But I got to give it to you, at least you just accepted it and face it that you're not wanted, not even by your mate." She said with a cocky smirk which was getting me even more angry.
It was one thing to taunt me about not being wanted but was a next thing to taunt me about my mate which got Eva really angry. She kept talking but I couldn't hear anything because of Eva's growling and all I could see was red.
"At least I will still have him to fuck me senselessly." She said with that smirk still on her face.
"THATS IT!!" both Eva and I said in one voice that didn't sound normal. It had force used that so strong, it confused me but I quickly pushed it to the back of my mind.
I saw the fear in Emma's face and it just pushed me and Eva even more.
We are out for blood.
I lounge on her, making us both to fall on the floor. I began to throw punches repeatedly to that face of hers. She kept screaming while I was on top of her, sending her my best punches and scratches. I was enjoying myself until I felt arms wrap themselves around me. I roar angrily missing the feeling of my claws in her flesh.
The person held me in their arms until I started to calm down. I felt their hold get loose so I angrily shrugged them off me. I looked to see that it was the future beta, Chris, I think.
I am breathing heavily, looking around to see everyone gaping and looking at me. Some looked at me with fear and some looked at me with surprise. Honestly, I don't know where that came from. I have never lost my temper like that before, but I just felt this power take over me and it felt good.
Too good.
My eyes then landed on Andrew who was gaping like a fish with it's mouth opening and closing.
"Pathetic!" Eva spat angrily.
I am done with all these assholes. I huff and grab my things I dropped beside a now unconscious Emma. I stood and admired my work I done on her then quickly ran out off there before any teachers saw me.
I quickly made my way home with my wolf speed, so I could do this before Anna came back home. I didn't want to make it harder than it already did. I run into my room grabbing a duffle bag and throw as much clothes I could carry and all the information about my parents kidnapping I gathered in there.
After about 10 minutes later, I am finished. I already wrote a quick letter telling my sister about being rejected and how it hurts too much to stay here. Also about, how much I love and promise to contact her when I can. I, then went to the secret safe my parents made for my savings in my room and took all the cash I managed to save up all these years. I quickly grabbed my stuff and close my door.
I leave the letter on the kitchen counter, where I knew she would see it. I walk outside and stopping to look at my childhood home, saying goodbye to be a rogue. On my journey to the pack boarders my eyes started to get blurry with tears. I can't believe I'm actually doing this. When I finally stepped across the boarders I felt my pack bond break as I willing left. Well I guess this is it.
Goodbye.
