Rejected by Alpha Dimitri 25. Stained with Blood
Noah ~•~“She isn’t still awake.” “We just found her lying on the floor.” “The pills were next to her.” “She tried taking her life.”“I’ve called him.” I heard muffled voices having a conversation and they sounded far away. My head felt heavy and I tried to move but I couldn’t. I managed to open my eyes and I saw myself on an unfamiliar bed. Looking around, I realized I was at Hawkins General Hospital. I hated the smell of the hospital. I had been to Hawkins General Hospital severally but I had never had to use a bed. Suddenly, it dawned on me that I had tried killing myself. Someone must’ve found me and taken me to the hospital. I wondered who it was. The curtains were slightly open and I looked through the window to see what time of the day it was. The sun had gone down, so I guessed it was evening. I tried getting off the bed again but I couldn’t move. My whole body was weak and tired. After so many trials, I decided to wait until someone came into the room. Finally, the

Noah~•~It was a traumatic experience and I couldn’t help but feel guilty. I had a miscarriage when I tried ending my life. I felt like a murderer. Like I had killed my child. But I decided to look at the bright side of it. I wasn’t having Dimitri’s child anymore and I wasn’t going to be a young mother. The past few weeks were overwhelming. I was feeling all kinds of emotions. I still had to visit the hospital every week so they could check up on me. Katie, Sarah, and Aiden were always by my side. They didn’t leave me alone to be by myself for even a minute. Life was worth living again. Aiden assured me he had forgiven me for the whole Dimitri stuff. He also tried convincing me it wasn’t my fault. He made me feel better about everything. Dimitri, on the other hand, was angry I wasn’t carrying his child anymore. Sometimes I wondered if he had mental issues because he was the same person who said I shouldn’t let myself get pregnant for someone who rejected me. “Noah, are you ready

Noah~•~Aiden and I paused for a second, trying to process what Dimitri had just said. It was a very insensitive thing to say. I could see the anger and irritation on Aiden’s face. “What did you just say?” He asked, storming angrily to the living room. Springing up to his feet, Dimitri repeated his words. “You purposely made her kill my child, so you would have her all to yourself.” “Can you even hear yourself?” Before anybody could say anything else, I asked, glaring at Dimitri. “Oh, you don’t like hearing the truth?” He asked with a scoff and my stomach churned as I listened to him. I could feel my anger level rising. “I’ve had enough from you Dimitri.” I snapped and yelled. “You always act like a fucking child, can’t you act like the adult you are for once?” I could see the rage in his eyes when he heard what I had just said. “I am your alpha.” He growled but I didn’t flinch. “You won’t talk to me like that.” Aiden who had been oddly quiet finally spoke. “Shut the fuck up.”

Noah ~•~It was finally the day for Aiden and Dimitri to fight for the alpha position. I was contemplating on going to watch them or not. I couldn’t stand seeing Aiden get hurt and I knew they were going to hurt each other. They had to shift into their wolf forms in order to compete for the alpha position. It was the rule that governed our pack. Mr Lookwood had returned from Sparkle Falls. He had tried talking to the boys to rethink their decision and settle their differences. But both of them refused and said they had made up their mind about it.Dimitri didn’t back down because he wanted to prove to everyone that Aiden couldn’t beat him and Aiden didn’t back down because he claimed Dimitri was a terrible person and he didn’t deserve to be the leader. I was rooting for Aiden to win and I prayed to the moon goddess to make my wishes come through. I wanted to check up on Aiden to see how he was doing before the fight. They were going to fight in the woods when it was evening and i

Noah ~•~“Noah!” Katie yelled my name and knocked on my door. I got up from my bed and quickly rushed to the door. My heart raced as I twisted the door knob. The news I was about to receive was going to break me if it wasn’t a positive one. I unlocked the door and it swung open. Katie walked inside my room and closed the door behind her. She had an unreadable expression registered on her face. “So is the fight over? Who won?” I asked her but she was still quiet. I didn’t like the suspense, it was killing me. “Katie, just say something please.” “Yes, the fight is over.” She said in a low tone. “So, who won?” She didn’t look too happy and it seemed like something was wrong. “Please tell me, the suspense is killing me.” I pleaded, staring into her worried eyes. She hesitated for a while and took a deep breath before responding. “Aiden won and Dimitri surrendered.” My heart leaped for joy and I smiled. The moon goddess had answered my prayers. I pulled Katie into a suffocating h

Noah~•~“What about the arguments that the Second Amendment is about the right of the people to keep and bear arms to form a militia?” One of the students asked the professor who was standing in front of the class. "That's certainly one interpretation of the Second Amendment, but it's not the only one. Some legal scholars argue that the amendment protects an individual right to own firearms, regardless of whether or not they are part of a militia. The Supreme Court has also weighed in on this issue, ruling in District of Columbia v. Heller that the Second Amendment protects an individual's right to keep and bear arms, unconnected with service in a militia.” He explained and I paid close attention even if I didn’t understand everything he had just said.“In that case, the Court struck down a law that banned handguns in Washington, D.C. So, as you can see, the issue of the Second Amendment is a complex one, with different interpretations and implications for gun control policy." He ad

Noah~•~“What the fuck is wrong with Katie? What did I even do that her? What gave her the right to say something cruel to me?” “Calm down, Noah.” Aiden placed his hands on my shoulders and I took a deep breath, trying to calm my nerves. I had been ranting and pacing around the room so he gently led me to sit on the bed. “For months Aiden, for months.” I cried. “I had tried talking to her multiple times, asking her what the problem was but she refused to open up.” “She might be going through stuff that she doesn’t want to talk about. Just give her some time, and she’ll come around.” I scoffed and gave him a disgusted look. “Give her some time? What have I been doing these past months?” “We both know Katie and she has never acted this way, so just be patient. I’ll try talking to her too.” “That’s if she’ll even listen to you, she doesn’t listen to anyone anymore.” I seethed angrily. “Not even Scott, they have been having problems since he returned.” Scott was Katie’s boyfriend.

Noah ~•~“Ah!” I screamed when the water from the kitchen tap touched my hands. Pain shot through me and I yanked my hand back, cradling it to my chest. When I looked down, I saw that my skin was starting to blister. “Aiden!” I called out, panic rising in my chest. “The water…. It’s… it’s burning me!” My heart was pounding in my chest as I realized what had happened. The water in the sink was tainted with wolfsbane. I cried out, dropping onto the floor, as pain started spreading through my muscles. “Noah!” Aiden rushed into the kitchen and met me on the floor. I howled in agony, my vision blurred, and I could feel myself passing out.“Wolfsbane.” I managed to point my hands toward the direction of the sink. “In … in the… the water.” With that, I passed out. ~•~“It looks like she’s waking up.” I heard someone’s voice announce. I could taste the bitter moon blossom flower antidote on my lips. I felt a little bit better but I was still weak and hurting. It just didn’t sting like

Noah ~•~Aiden picked me up as soon as he saw my text. He took me home and I got cleaned up. I was worried about the way I felt good about my mother’s death but it had to be done. Katie stopped by the house to drop off my car and necklace before I even arrived. She sent me a text saying I should call her the next day. Aiden stayed in my room while I was in the shower. “So you’re happy now?” He asked when I got out of the bathroom. “I feel guilty taking their mother away from them but I had to do it,” I admitted, wiping my face with my face towel. “Anyways, I’m happy that my father has gotten justice for his death.” “I’m glad it’s over and I’m glad you didn’t get hurt,” Aiden whispered, pulling me closer to him. She was a hunter and everything could have gone wrong if she had also tried to kill me. “I’m glad it’s over too,” I said, leaning into his chest. “So let’s celebrate,” Aiden suggested, a mischievous expression registered on his face.I knew what he had in mind and I didn
Rejected by Alpha Dimitri 97. Disfigured
Noah ~•~It had been over a month since the whole Katie and Jordan drama went down. Our college exams were also approaching. Katie decided she wasn’t going to let Jordan’s betrayal bring her down. She broke up with him and tried her best to avoid him whenever she was in school. Dimitri and Jessica started dating and she was practically at the house most of the time. Dimitri also spent a lot of time in Sparkle Falls. Ethan reached out to me and asked to spend a day with me. He wanted me to meet the rest of my siblings. Getting to know the strangers who shared the same DNA with me wasn’t a bad idea. Even if our worlds were different, it wouldn’t hurt to get to know them. I agreed to meet them during the weekend and the weekend was finally here. Their town was just an hour's drive away from Hawkins. Katie offered to accompany me there and to be by my side in case anything happened. It was still very early and I decided to spend my morning at the gym. I wanted to work out. I hadn’

Noah ~•~“Katie! Make it stop.” I yelled at Katie who had a wicked grin spread across her face. Aiden rushed to Angela to help her from the ground. After a few seconds, Katie stopped the migraines and Angela was back to normal. Dimitri and Aiden were pleading with Katie to stop while I took Angela to the car. I didn’t know what to do, the only thing I could think of was to call Scott. I pulled out my phone from my pocket and dialed his number. After trying about three times, I was about to give up, but I decided to try one more time. Fortunately enough, he picked up. “Hey, Noah. How are you?” “Scott, I’m not okay,” I said, my voice laced with fear. “What’s going on?” He asked. “It’s Katie, she’s behaving strangely,” I replied, running my hands through my hair. “She wants to take the moonstone from its original position.” “What?” Scott said, his voice laced with fear. “Why does she want to do something like that? It means putting the lives of the crescent moon pack in danger.”

Noah ~•~“Katie, you won’t do that.” My expression became serious but Katie looked so determined. “Do you know what it means? Random people would die. I would die, Aiden would die..” “But it wasn’t a problem when the Malley witches died?” She asked, giving me a disdainful look. I was shocked and I couldn’t believe we were even having such a conversation. “Katie, what has gotten into you?” I asked, a puzzled expression registered on my face. “Nothing, I just want justice for my people.” She said. “Girl, you don’t even know what they look like,” I replied with a scoff. A part of me felt she was just bored and joking because there was no way in hell she would take that moonstone and put everyone’s life in danger. Katie didn’t say anything else to me, she just walked out of the room. I didn’t know what she was up to, so I followed her. When we got downstairs, everyone could tell we just had a serious argument. They all stared at us with concern etched on their faces. Katie wanted

Noah ~•~After a short stroll, we arrived at Katie’s front door. I knocked on the door multiple times before someone answered the door. It was Dahlia who answered the door. She was so excited to see Aiden. “You barely hang out here anymore.” She complained as she engulfed him in a tight hug. Dahlia was right. I couldn’t remember the last time Aiden hung out with us in Katie’s house. It was because he became the alpha and had so many responsibilities. It was also because we’ve been going through much the past few months and everyone was so busy. “I’m sorry about that, it’s not on purpose.” Aiden apologized as we made our way to the living room. “Thank goodness you’re here, Noah.” Sophia rushed to hug me as soon as she saw me. “Katie has been acting like a bitch.”I gently placed my hands over her mouth when I heard those words. “Don’t talk about your big sister in such a vile manner.” Sophia was still too young to be using the bitch word as a part of her vocabulary.“I’m sorry.”

Noah ~•~I felt a mix of emotions and I didn’t know what to do or say. Aiden must have noticed my reaction because he took my hand in his and gave it a gentle squeeze. “Let’s focus on getting the necklace first.” He whispered. “We can deal with the rest later.” I nodded, wiping my eyes with the back of my hands to prevent the tears welled in my eyes from streaming down my face. Aiden handed my mother his phone so she could put her son’s number. When she was done, he took it back from her and dialed the number. After a few rings, a male voice answered. “Hello.” He said. “Hey, I’m Aiden. Your mother is here and she has something to tell you.” “Is she okay? Please don’t hurt her.” The boy pleaded, his tone laced with worry and fear for his mother. Aiden didn’t respond to him, he just signaled my mother to speak to the boy while he still held the phone. “Ethan, you have to come to Hawkins as soon as possible with that necklace.” She instructed him. “The one that belongs to my s

Noah~•~“Aiden, I can’t live like this anymore,” I said, my voice filled with frustration as I lay on his chest. “It’s turning me into a monster and I feel good about killing people,” I confessed, my voice barely above a whisper. Aiden’s hands stroked my hair, his touch gentle. “You’re not a monster, Noah.” He reassured me, his words soothing and comforting. “Are you ready to consider your mother's deal?” I jerked up, my eyes flashing with anger. “Don’t refer to that woman as my mother again,” I warned, my voice low and even. “She’s not my mother, she’s a huntress who killed my father.”“I’m sorry, I won’t refer to her as your mother again.” Aiden apologized and I laid back on his chest. “But have you made a decision yet?” “Hm hm,” I said, nodding my head. “I’m going to let her go for now,” I said, my fingers tracing patterns on his skin. Aiden’s eyes locked onto mine, his gaze intense. “What do you mean by that?” He asked, his voice low and cautious. I smiled, forming a plan in

Noah ~•~We weren’t able to resolve the Jernard issue and we ended up missing the gala. Aiden, Dimitri, Sarah, and I spent the rest of our night drinking wine and watching movies. Aiden and Dimitri decided they were going to deal with the Jernard issue in the morning. That was finding a way to get rid of him and his people. Aiden called Asher and asked him to inform him if Jernard ever returned to the gala, but luckily enough, he never called to deliver any news like that. Exhausted from the events of the day, I decided it was time to go to bed. I exchanged goodbyes with everybody and made my way to my room. I went straight to the bathroom to clean my makeup and change into a more comfortable dress. When I was done, I lay down on my bed. I was about to sleep when I sighted my phone and decided to call Katie first. I wanted to tell her about everything that happened. I called her repeatedly but she didn’t respond. I figured she would be sleeping so I didn’t disturb her further.

Noah ~•~Jernard was on the stage while everyone in the crowd had puzzled looks on their faces.His voice was booming as he continuously declared. “I’m going to be the leader of the pack, whether you all like it or not!” A small group of strange people were cheering him on and it was unsettling. Sarah and I walked through the crowd to meet Asher. “What is going on?” I asked Asher who had a worried look on his face. Aiden, Dimitri, and some other people were trying to stop Jernard. Jernard kept on chanting those words while the people kept on cheering him. After a series of struggles, they finally got Jernard off the stage. I had no idea what had gotten into him. He claimed he wasn’t going to disturb us and had gone somewhere else to start his own pack. So what changed? Why did he want to become the leader of the crescent moon pack all of a sudden? Dimitri handled the whole situation while Aiden stayed back on the stage. He took the microphone and cleared his throat before speak
