Rejecting the alpha

Book 2 Chapter 1

Oscar’s POV

Olivia’s chirpy voice woke me up, she was yelling at Sam. Ignoring their argument I rolled out of bed, the events of last night replaying over in my head.
The second our lips came in contact the sparks intensified, it felt addicting. I moved my hands to her waist pulling her closer, when her fingers went through my hair pulling it, I couldn’t hold back my moan. Biting her bottom lip, she gasped, giving me entrance deepening our kiss. Lifting her up I pushed her against the wall, smiling as her legs wrapped themselves around my waist. My fingers trailed across her stomach, the sensation making her let out a moan. I couldn’t stop the growl that left me, she stopped the kiss making me growl again. With a smirk on her face, she whispered in my ear.
“Don’t worry, I’m not going anywhere handsome.” Before pulling her shirt over her head.
My eyes darkened as I took in the image of my mate half naked in front of me, when I reached her eyes, I froze. Taking an involuntary step back, I stared at her eyes.
“Your… how did I not know, you can’t be” I was mumbling.
The sound of crying pulled me out of my haze, my eyes widening as I realised Amelia was crying. I reached for her, but she pulled away from me, running into her bedroom.
I tried to follow her, but the door was locked, banging on the door I tried to talk to her. “Amelia, Open the door. Please.”
“Just leave me alone, I can’t do this. We can’t do this, what just happened is proof of that.” she cried.
“Please, Amelia. I want to be with you, and I know you feel something for me. Please just open the door and we can talk about it.” how could I do something so stupid.
She was crying so much I could barely understand her. “Please… just leave me alone. I can’t take this anymore, being with you hurts too much.”
I could feel my own tears flowing as I fell to my knees, she wasn’t mine, she would never be mine.

She truly didn’t want me. Seeing the hurt in her eyes crushed me, I had hurt her. Everything was going so well, until I saw her eyes. I froze, why did I freeze. I screwed everything up, I had a chance to get her back and I failed. She doesn’t want me.
At least Olivia was ignoring me, she and Sam would have heard everything from last night. Not feeling the Christmas spirit, I decided to avoid it all together.
As I was leaving the house, I heard them all yelling in the kitchen. I kept going despite their argument. I need to be out of this house, I need to shift. I only just made it to the trees before Xander took over.
Giving in, I allowed him to run. He needed space as much as I did, the freedom of being a backseat driver in your own body allows you to take a break. It sounds strange but it’s useful in situations like this when you just need to think.
I don’t know how long I’ve been running; the smell of turkey filled my nose. They must have started cooking. I started to walk towards the house, my head now feeling clearer. The feeling of fear stopped me, Amelia. The scent that followed had Xander trying to take control again, Rogues.
Running through the forest toward her, the feeling of pain brought me to the floor. Checking my leg, I saw nothing. No wound, they had hurt her. They are still hurting her, I pushed myself back up and ran. I reached a clearing in the trees, looking around for her. Her scent stopped here, it stopped at a trail of blood. So much blood. Xander let out a howl, he wanted his mate, and he is going to kill whoever has her.
I tried to reach out through the mate bond, tried to feel her but I felt nothing. I couldn’t feel her anymore. She can’t be dead; I would have felt it. Please don’t be dead.
I reached out to Sam through the mind link, I need help. I can’t find her scent anywhere.
Get out to the woods, Amelia’s missing. The rogues came back, they took her.
I felt his growl through the link before he replied.
I’m coming, Olivia is calling your dad. Maybe they know something new.
Where is she?
