Rejected by one Alpha, Loved by another

Chapter 82: Get to know you first

Kai's POV

When I landed in LAX, I went straight for the car I had left there the day before. I should have gone straight home, but I decided to phone my Mom and see what I should do.

"Hi Baby, how did the deal go yesterday?"

My mom is everything to us all. She may have stepped down from her Luna duties, but everyone still goes to her when they need something. I planned to not mention any of this until I got home, but I'm questioning whether or not I should go and see Millie.

A fitting name for a Luna. It has a ring to it. I think to myself. I don't want to get my hopes up but I certainly don't want to waste another moment not meeting her.

"It went to shit ma. The Alpha has no clue what to do but that's not why I'm calling. I'm back in LA. Just about to leave the Airport actually and I need your advice" I say as I'm actually still sitting in the car park not moving. I need to know what to do. I'm a bloody Alpha and I haven't a clue how to approach this situation.

"Go on?" She says in her loving tone. My brother and I are proper Momma's boys whereas our sister, Ella is a daddy's girl. Don't get me wrong they love us all the same but if dad gave us shit for doing wrong when we were kids then it was our mom who me and Alex went to.

"I found my mate," I tell her quietly.

"You've...okay, hang on!"

"Dan! Get in here"

I sigh and shake my head with a smile on my face and before long my mother has ended the call only to FaceTime me instead.

"What's going on lad?" My dad asks me.

"I found my mate, and the only thing is, she's here in LA at UCLA. She's a figure skater"

"Right? So why do you look like you've just swallowed a wasp?"

"That- I'm not even going to dignify that with an answer. I've met her family. She's the previous Alphas daughter of Waterside Pack. I spoke with her brother who is 25 and thriving being the Alpha, who has done for years apparently but she suffers from mental health. Bad."

"How bad?" My mom asks holding a hand to her heart.

"She's on lifetime medications and doesn't sleep, sometimes doesn't answer her phone or doesn't eat and doesn't understand the impact her actions have on her family but she also gets bullied at college. I got that piece of information from her father who isn't supposed to know all of this" I tell her but she just smiles at me.

"Why are you smiling ma?"

"Baby, I don't know what you want me to say. Are you going to reject her?" She asks and I already feel the anger rise in me about that. Of course, I'm not going to reject her, at least I won't reject her unless she rejects me. The feeling isn't lost on my mother who grins and looks to my father.

"No. Unless she rejects me then no, I can't. I won't. All I did was stand in her room yesterday and look at some photos of her and her family, smell her sweater and I'm obsessed" I explain and before I know what I'm doing I'm driving towards the college which is only 20 minutes away.

"You don't and have never needed me or your father to guide you on many things love but know this, you are an Alpha, you have respect from packs across the lands and you are fearless, people fear you instead but this woman, will not bow down to you, she will test you and probably push you to your limits and if she also has problems then you have to be patient but I believe in you and I would love to think that we could meet her," my mom says as she looks to my dad. They have been together since they were 19 years old and it wasn't long after that, that they had me then two years later they had Alexander but everyone calls him Alex.
