Rejected Mate novel Chapter 4

"you ready" I hear Ben question me from the car, I slowly limp with the crushes over to the car, I don't want to use them. But everyone is making me; I notice hazyn sitting in the front seat of the car with ben leaving the backseat open for me, I have a feeling me and hazyn will kill each other soon. The minute the car starts, I drift off into a peaceful sleep.

"wake up" I hear a voice chirp making me open my eyes with slits to glare at ben.

"guess we know that you are not a morning person" he laughs, making me roll my eyes and get up and out of the car. The first thing I notice is the alphas talking with all of Matthews friends.

"I don't want to use these stupid things" I growl throwing the crutches back into the car, I know if I have them out the boys will use it to there advantage.

"I have rooms upstairs ready for both you and the beta" the alpha speaks, making me roll my eyes.

"and what about the room for Erika" hazyn questions making me look at him in shock,

"We thought she would be going back to the den on the outskirts of the territory" Matthews second-hand man eric speaks making me gulp

"no she won't be, she can just stay in the room with me" hazyn speaks making me and ben turn to each other in shock.

"yes, alpha hazyn, your bedrooms are next to each other in the guest wing, third and fourth room on the right I'm sure Erika will show you to the rooms" the alpha speaks before they all rush off inside.

"she can stay in my room man I know you don't like sharing" ben states warily.

"no, it's fine your mate won't thank me if she finds out you had a female in your bed before even meeting her" he smiles.

"Neither will yours" ben states making hazyn roll his eyes.

"already told you I won't find her" he states before taking off, I slowly limp after him knowing ben is following behind me. I push past hazyn and lead the way to our rooms.

"your room, our room" I point at the doors making them nod their heads and walk into there rooms. I slowly walk into mine and stare at hazyn

"shes dead isnt she" I state once I closed the door.

"don't know what you mean" he replies back sharply sitting on the bed.

"The room is soundproof, and as a rejected mate I know the look, and you are screaming it, but you don't look in pain when she is mentioned making me think she is dead, and it has been a while. probably before you came alpha and that's why no one knows" I state

"fine you got me, she died a week before I became alpha and they don't need to know that I'm not fit to be an alpha" he states putting his hands on his face.

"I am going to go get some food and leave you alone, I won't tell anyone, and I know you hate being around me so once Matthew is awake and we leave you can dump me in no man's land, I will be fine" I smile before walking out of the bedroom and down the hallway.

trigger warning

I feel my head colid with a wall making my vision blur together.

"You stupid whore, you made him like this" I hear eric growl making me gulp knowing this isnt going to be pretty

"he rejected me not the other way around, tomorrow ill be gone and he will be awake isnt that better then him dying like he was going to?" I question confused as to why they are so pissed off it could be so much worse

"You shouldn't have been his mate" they state making me roll my eyes which lands a punch to my gut.

"I don't pick who my mate is" I state, I thought they knew that or are they that stupid.

"You could have left when you found out and allowed him to pick his mate" Alex chimes in
