THE REJECTED OMEGA’S MATE : a tale of unexpected love

*BRIANNE’S POV*“What’s a pretty lady doing all by herself?” The question rolled off his tongue like candy melting off the stick, his deep voice added an extra layer to the flirtation.“Hi,” I responded calmly.“Josh…my name’s Josh,” He said, flashing an even broader smile.I stared at him, mesmerized by how someone could look so cute and majestic at the same time. His looks were so inviting and charming that his flirting didn’t even feel like flirting.“Uhm…this is the part where you tell me your name” He prompted, pulling me out of my thoughts.“I’m Brianne” I replied, feeling a little bit caught off guard.“Wow, a pretty name for a pretty lady,” He said in a low seductive chuckle.He was about to say something more when a tall man barged into our little corner. His presence immediately commanded attention as his hazel-golden-like eyes locked on Josh and me.“Josh, don’t just go around flirting. I need you with me, now” He commanded, his voice brooking no argument.Alpha Jordyn…Ever

*JORDYN'S POV*I stared into blank space with my legs crossed as if the weight of my thoughts anchored me to the spot.I kept my composure in front of her but deep down, I was a whirlwind of emotions.I had a lot to drink last night but I could recall what happened, although not clearly.The moment I laid my eyes on her at the noble’s party, a strange sensation cursed through my veins. It was something I had never felt before, something new. Underneath my composure, I felt my wolf tearing through my skin and trying to break free from my control as if desperate to claim this mysterious woman as its own.I had snuck out of the noble’s party because I felt suffocated in there. It was quite shocking that I also met her at the club. It wasn't love at first sight, Maybe I was just sexually attracted but there was something about her I couldn’t quite understand.It’s even more tragic that she couldn’t remember grabbing my wrist so tight and throwing me on that bed with a strength that belied

*BRIANNE’S POV*I stood frozen in the darkness of my room, staring at my phone screen. The coldness in Jordyn’s voice kept me glued to the spot. I couldn’t shake off the feeling that he was watching me; even though I could not see him, my spine tingled.Out of fright, I hastily rushed to my window and slammed it shut. His words echoed in my head. ‘We’re not done yet.’What did he mean by that? I thought this whole charade was only going to last three weeks. Wasn’t that the deal? I was starting to doubt because Jordyn’s voice hinted at something more sinister, as if he was extending the agreed timeframe.“This is exhausting” I let out a deep sigh, my shoulders slumping in fatigue. I wondered if I had underestimated Jordyn’s intentions, why did I have to be caught up in an Alpha’s world? I had always tried to stay unnoticed, to blend into the background, and not draw unnecessary attention to myself. So where could I have gone wrong?His words ‘we’re not done yet’ sounded more like a pro

*BRIANNE’S POV*“That is bad news,” Mary said.I rolled my eyes at her. “That’s the whole point, of course, it’s bad news,” I said perplexed.Mary chuckled. “Your life is full of unexpected surprises, Bri. You have to admit, it’s never boring” Mary added, her voice laced with sarcasm.I groaned. “They are driving me nuts, Mary. Just because my brother now has his wolf, my father suddenly decided it would be better for me to train at the pack house?” I complainedMary tried to offer a reassuring smile. “Your father might just be trying to push you to your full potential” she tried to reason with me.“Full potential?” I repeated, my voice rising. “You know as well as I do that people training at the pack house all have their wolves already. They are not struggling like I am” I said, devastated.“This whole thing is weird” Mary’s voice became low. “Do you think he told your father to make you train at the pack house?” Mary’s question sounded more like she was talking to herself.“I doub

*BRIANNE’S POV*I scanned the crowd, my gaze awkwardly darting from one face to another. Their waiting eyes stared back at me, gleaming with anticipation.His thunderous voice boomed again. “You, pretty girl, Come up here”The lady turned to me with a faint but encouraging smile. “Go on, show us what you’ve got”My legs stayed rooted to the spot. ‘But I’ve got nothing to show’“I..sorry I think I’ll pass,” I said shakily.The lady chuckled. “You don’t get to pass.” She said. “Be an honorable wolf and go on” She encouraged.But how…how do I tell them I don’t have my wolf? How do I tell them I’m not strong enough? I tried to move my legs but they stayed stuck to the ground, refusing to budge. I knew that once I stepped into that ring, my fate was sealed.The crowd’s cheers grew louder, but their enthusiasm wasn’t for me— It was for my opponent. A tall, slender girl in her mid-20s. She snarled, glaring at me with a fierce intensity. Her eyes seemed to dare me to step forward.My legs fi
