A Mate For The Last Lycan novel Chapter 2

Chapter 2: REJECTION AND HUMILIATION

Zuri had heard about Alpha Xaden's destined mate being an omega in the pack, but she also heard that he had rejected the poor girl, so this marriage could happen in the first place.

"There is a conflict of interests I'll have to think about here if I reject you now. It will not benefit either of the packs." Xaden was talking about superficial things, while Zuri wanted to talk about her feelings. "It already happened. You will be at a disadvantage too if I were to reject you. Nobody will accept a broken thing. A rejected woman, who had already been mated and marked. So, let's make a deal between the two of us instead."

Zuri wriggled her hand that was still in his grip. This time, Xaden let go of her, but for a moment, they just stared into each other's eyes with mixed feelings.

"What deal do you want to make with me?" Zuri gritted her teeth. She felt humiliated and didn't know what to do anymore. She was trapped in this pack.

She thought she could finally be free from her father, but even the mate that she thought would love her ended up hating her with passion even though they had only met a handful of times.

"Mind our own business." The words came very light, but Zuri could grasp the heavy meaning behind his intention. "Live this life as you want, as long as you don't tarnish the pack name, I will let you have anything that you want and I will not interfere with your life. Ever."

"You just want to get away from me."

"Yes, that's exactly what I want."

"So, you can go back to your omega mate that you have cowardly rejected because she has no benefit to offer you?" Zuri didn't know where she found the courage to say these things, but she found herself staggering back when she saw unadulterated fury erupt in Xaden's eyes. She could feel how strong the hatred the alpha had for her right now was, as if he wanted to kill her and skin her alive there and then.

"That's none of your business." He gritted out the answer.

"Of course, that's my business, because by doing so, you will humiliate me and by extension, you will be the one to tarnish this pack's name." Zuri lifted her head and looked him in the eyes, the alpha's blood ran in her veins too. "I am the Luna of the pack, I have every right to protect the pack's good name now that I belong to this pack."

"You have a way with your words." Xaden glared down at her and then walked away from the room, he seemed not to want to spend another minute with Zuri.

And the moment he stepped out of the room, Zuri's legs gave away, she felt her heart beating so fast when she felt this emptiness without his presence.

The mate bond between them worked wonders, but unfortunately, Xaden was hellbent on denying it. He refused to let the bond control him.

Therefore, it left Zuri with this pain.

At this moment, she had dipped herself for more than two hours. _{frёewebnoѵēl.com}
