Chapter 2

Chloe's pov

 

I was expecting him to feel remorseful for what he had done, but there was no sign of remorse on his face as he stared at me blankly.

 

"Liam," I called again, and Mendy rolled her eyes at me, and my eyes dilated in shock.

 

Mendy knew I was his mate, yet she chose to seduce him.

 

I had never thought of seducing any of Mendy's boyfriends, but here she was kissing my mate in front of me. What a shame!

 

"Liam, do you know that I am your mate?" I asked slowly, and he stared at me with a look I couldn't fathom, but I knew it wasn't a good look or a remorseful one either.

 

“Yes, I know." He dropped the bombshell as if I were being stabbed with an arrow.

 

My heart shattered into thousands of pieces, and I almost lost my balance. My knees wobbled, and when they couldn't support my weight any longer, I fell helplessly on the ground as tears streamed down my eyes, smearing my makeup.

 

"I know that you're my mate, but do you expect me to accept a weak she-wolf like you? You don't have a wolf, Chloe, so wake up! A future alpha like me can't possibly be with a weak she wolf like you," he said matter of factly, and I clenched my fists in anger, almost drawing out blood.

 

That minute, I was so angry that I felt like releasing Kiara, who was also as angry as I was. She kept growling inside of me, and it took the last strength in me to be able to keep her in place.

 

"Why am I not qualified to be your mate and the future Luna of this pack? Being weak doesn't cut it, asshole!" I yelled in anger as tears slipped out of my eyes.

 

I was so helpless that the only thing I could do was cry and yell at him. I heard Mendy snicker, but I paid her no attention.

 

"You don't have a wolf, and you're too weak to be my Luna; don't you get it, weakling?" He yelled back, and I closed my eyes to subside my anger. Maybe, just maybe, if I beg him, he will reconsider and accept me as his mate.

 

"I don't know if I offended you in any way, but isn't it too much to choose Mendy over me?" I asked, and Mendy rolled her eyes at me.

 

"And you! Why would you do such a thing to your own sister, huh? Don't you have any shame?" I yelled at Mendy, who walked closer to me, moved her lips to my ears, and whispered.

 

"I don't consider you my sister, Chloe. You're an outcast, and I can't be a sister to someone like you; and always remember, Liam has always been mine, so you being his mate won't change anything!" She said that and smirked before looking me in the eyes.

 

The moment her eyes met mine, the hatred that I felt in my heart was second to none. I felt like strangling the hell out of her, but Liam's voice snapped me out of my daze, and I was glad for a moment that he had the moment he did; otherwise, I would have attracted the wrath of both our parents.

 

"I, Liam Moreno, reject you, Chloe Daniel, as my mate and the future Luna of the MayHill pack!" He said, and at that moment I felt the connection between us get severed, and a sharp pain shot at my chest, and I held it in pain.

 

I was wailing in pain when the door opened, and my grandma walked in with an angry expression. When she saw me wailing in pain on the ground, her eyes softened, and she rushed to me and helped me up.

 

"What happened, Chloe?" She asked with worry etched on her wrinkled face, and instead of replying, I fixed my gaze on both Mendy, who seemed to care less about my condition, and Liam, who rolled his eyes as our eyes met.

 

Understanding what happened, my grandmother stood up and walked to Mendy and landed a resounding slap on her face, and she glared at my grandmother like a possessed witch.

 

"Why did you slap me, grandma?" She shouted, and Grandma slapped her again, and almost immediately Liam came in between them, stopping Grandma from laying her hands on Mendy.

 

"That's enough, grandma!" Liam said, and my grandma glared at him.

 

She stomped her feet on the ground. "You're a shame in this family, Mendy. You're so shameless that you seduced your younger sister's mate; how shameless of you."

 

Grandma had hatred and disdain dripping from her voice.

 

"He was never hers to begin with; Liam belongs to me," Mendy said, and Grandma was about to rush to slap her again when I stopped her.

 

"It's okay, grandma. He already rejected  me."I muttered with tears in my eyes, and my grandma stared at me in pity.

 

Soon, my dad, Scott, and Lucy walked into Mendy's room and met the scene. Lucy ran over to where I stood and pulled me into a comforting hug, and another round of tears slipped down my eyes.

 

"What happened here?" My dad asked, and Mendy walked to him and hugged him.

 

"Grandma slapped me because she met me and Liam kissing," Mendy said, faking tears, and I almost sneered at her in disdain.

 

"Dad, Liam happens to be my mate, but Mendy seduced him," I said, and my dad raised his hand, stopping me from saying any more words, and I bit my lips hurtfully.

My dad has never loved me since the death of my mom. He believed that if I were never born, his wife wouldn't be dead, so he never loved me and treated me like I wasn't his blood.

"Liam, is everything Chloe said true?" My dad asked, looking at Liam, who looked at me and smirked secretly, and my heart skipped a beat.

"Sir, Chloe walked in and met me and Mendy kissing, so she slapped Mendy, saying I was her mate when I'm not.” Liam said.

My heart beats faster. Did he just lie and say that I wasn't his mate?
