The Rejected Mate

Pls do read the authors note at the end.▪️Her brows furrowed together as she stared down at the flashing screen of her mobile phone. 'Unknown Caller', the name kept staring back at her. Serenity wasn't one to answer calls from strangers, but this time she felt like answering the call, which was a first on her part.Serenity had been working, going through her boss' schedule for the day when her phone had started ringing. The person on the other end was persistent, that she was quite sure of since this wasn't the first time they were calling her, the last three times she had managed to ignore it, but now annoyance and curiosity were getting the best of her. There was a reason why she didn't like answering phone calls from an unknown number, she feared that the things she had left behind in her past would catch up to her someday, and in her mind avoiding such phone calls would help her dodge the inevitable. Deciding to just get it over with, she answers the phone."Hello?" she questio

    * 3 years ago *     Everyone was rushing out of the pack house the moment they heard that their future Alpha has arrived. It was as if he was a celebrity of some sort, well to them he was.     She felt like she was part of a flock of sheep that kept moving together. Since Courtney and her were among the last to step out of the pack house, they couldn't see anything properly.     By the murmuring of the pack members around them, it was clear that Damien had stepped out of the car and was now talking to the current Beta, which happened to be Courtney's Dad, Sean.     They couldn't hear anything, as they stood too far away from them, but she could clearl

    * 3 years ago *   It is safe to say that she was miles away from her pack grounds. She had crossed the border about two hours ago.     Their pack was the strongest pack in America, yet it does not surprise her that no one noticed when one of the pack members was leaving through the border. They must have been so indulged with the announcement Damien had made a little while ago.     She has been running for two hours in her human form. It was tiring her out. Growing up she did not indulge herself in any sports or pack training, so she was sure she was a bit out of shape. She decided to stop and rest for an hour or so before shifting into her brown colored wolf and continue with her journey.    

      * Present Time *     Matthew and Serenity have been in the car for quite a few hours now, travelling towards the Midnight Moon Pack. They'd decided it would be better if they got there as soon as possible and Serenity did not want to anger her dear best friend, who may turn into Bridezilla herself.   She was nervous and anxious to meet them all, especially a certain someone with stormy grey eyes. As if feeling her nervousness, Matthew places his hand on top hers, while he drives with the other, and says "It's going to be just fine and do not to forget I'm going to be with you." She shoots him a nervous smile.     It is a five-hour drive and she realises that they were nearing their

        Matt and Serenity have been curled upon her bed for the past hour or so watching 'Titanic'.       It was kind of funny how the person who was supposed to cry was not and the one that was not, was actually bawling their eyes out.       She hears sniffling noises when the part where Jack dies at the end of the film from hypothermia, protecting Rose by having her float on a doorframe while he stays in the water plays on the screen. She turns towards her right and finds Matthew sniffling and sees tears trickling down his face causing her to laugh.
