All Chapters of Rejected By My Best Friend And Alpha: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Vivian's POV What just happened? I needed to find Zeke and figure out what was going on. He was supposed to be with Samantha. He'd help me make sense of what was going on. Then, together, we could confront the two and set the record straight, and things could return to normal. Then I'd talk to Chris and settle what was happening between us. Without outside influences. Just us. Because if he meant what he said, then I needed to listen and stop being so back and forth with his emotions and my own. I was so deep in my thoughts that I overlooked the steady footsteps that started mimicking my own behind me or when a shoulder bumped mine. Only when Caleb said, "Earth to Vi. Earth to Vi." Oh, great. Just what I needed. Like today wasn't complicated enough. "Oh, hi, Caleb. What are you doing?" "I saw you walking like a woman on a mission and wanted to check if you were okay. You alright?" "Just trying to find Zeke. Have you seen him?" I

Vivian's POV It wasn't hard to find out where Chris was taking Samantha on a date. He was taking her to Rosy's. Go figure. Real original, Chris, I thought to myself. I was a little spiteful and jealous, and I knew that, but I couldn't help it. I'd made a mistake rejecting him in the first place, and now my duty was to fix this mess I was in. Right now, I need to play Happy Couple with Zeke. I looked over at Zeke, whose arm looped in mine, grinning like the cat who ate the canary. I shuddered, not enjoying this part of the plan. I told him we could have just come here as friends, but he insisted that it would have worked better if Samantha had thought we were together. I finally relented. She seemed to have some jealousy complex with me. As we neared Rosy's, I felt myself pulling away from Zeke, starting to doubt our plan. But his grip on my arm tightened. "It'll be okay," he whispered to me. I nodded. This was a good plan. Samantha would be jeal

Samantha's POV I watched as Vivian and Chris entered Chris's apartment. Something was bothering Chris, so I decided to follow him to see if he would get into trouble once he left me. I was right. The second I turned my back, he was letting that bitch into his apartment. And who knows what she was telling him once they were alone? Probably undoing all the work I'd done after my little fixer-upper this morning. I needed to take out the big guns now. First, I needed to stop what was happening in that apartment before they were in a compromising position that I couldn't explain. I closed my eyes, whispering the words I knew would darken the streets and the building before me. When I opened them, glancing around, I saw all the lights were out. Silence engulfed me. I made my way to Chris's apartment, formulating my plan as I went. When I reached the door, I started banging on it and crying out, "Chris! Chris! Chris!" I heard shuffling feet, and then the door cracked

VIVIAN'S POV "What do you mean?" I asked. "Honey, sit down," my mother said, sitting on the bed and patting the space beside her. I stared at her, not able to move. I shook my head, stumbling backward. "Just tell me. I don't need to sit." She sighed. "It would be much easier if you weren't looking at me like I slapped you. Come on now. Your father will be home soon and freak out if he knows I'm telling you any of this. It's best to discuss this now when he's not around." I eyed the space next to her and moved to sit on the edge of the bed, a distance away from her. I felt she was about to tell me I wouldn't like it. Like she'd been hiding something from me. "I'm listening." She looked down at her hands, hesitating. "I'm not sure where to start. But as you know, I used to be a rogue but before that, I was part of another pack. Did I ever tell you which pack?" I shook my head. She'd never told me anything about her time before she'

VIVIAN'S POV I woke up with warm arms wrapped around me. I smiled, loving that Chris was still holding me next to him. I was where I belonged. I snuggled deeper into his arms, causing him to stir and pull his arms away. "Vivid?" His saying my nickname gave me chills. "Good morning." He sat up, pulling away from me entirely and clearing his throat. "About last night..." Oh no. Oh no, no, no. "Yes?" "It can't happen again." I sat up, grabbing his arm. "What are you talking about? It's already been done. You've got to tell Samantha now. You can't possibly go back to normal with her and ignore what happened." "I'll tell Sam what happened at the right time, and we can ignore what happened." He pulled his arm from my grasp, standing. I looked at him desperately. "I don't think you should come with Zeke and me." "I'm still coming. Someone has to be there to make sure you're not getting in over your head." I crossed my arms. There was no point arguing w
