I, Yes I Rejected The Alpha/ I, Yes I Was Stolen

Chapter 18

I was sitting on one of those window sofa things like Emily has on pretty little liars. To be honest I was in a bit of awe. I had always wanted one of these just maybe not under the circumstances.

I heard the door open, followed by light footsteps and then the door closing again.

"Whatever it is you want, I don't care"

I heard a small chuckle followed by the words "I don't want anything"

I turned to see Alex standing there in a t-shirt and jeans. It was strange to see an Alpha dressed so casually.

"May I sit" he asked gesturing towards the window sofa. I shuffled over but still kept my feet up. He mimicked me exactly but sat opposite to me so his head was next to my feet and my head was next to his feet.

I was staring out the window. It was completely dark outside. The rain was pouring hard. Thunder and lightning filled the sky. It occurred to me that maybe the Luna Goddess was angry.

"You know I always dreamt of the day I would meet my mate. I would imagine what would happen. How we would greet each other. I had always imagined just one of those days where we randomly go dancing around the room having a laugh"

"Sorry for being such a disappointment"

"You're not a disappointment" he replied. "I just thought you would be more......."

"Happier, Friendlier, Perfect" I interrupted.

"Shyer"

I burst out laughing. Out of everyone in the whole wolf community I was probably the least shy.

"It's not that funny. You avoided the mating ceremony, avoided me and according to your sister avoided most of your pack mates. That sounds like a shy person"

I sighed. I needed to make it clear.

"Listen, you've been nice to me and all but I'm not your mate. If I was, I would feel some sort of attraction towards you or at least felt some sort of sadness when I rejected you"

He ducked his head down. He felt just as awkward as I did.

"Your feelings were some place else" he said.

I looked at him, puzzled. I didn't understand what he meant.

"Well first time you met me, you'd broken your arm so you were in pain more than anything else. Second time your father had disowned you so you were upset and here now you're angry about the fight and how my men treated Cassie. You haven't had time to focus on the attraction so you don't believe it's there"

Oddly enough he was making sense. It was like trying to focus on three things at once. You concentrate on the most important and blocked out the other two.

"Even if we are mates" I began. "This is not the life I want. I want to go to New York, get a job, help people. Not only would I not have time for love but I never wanted it in my life ever"

I could see my confession pained him. It pained me for having to say it. He had been so nice I didn't want to hurt him.

"How about a compromise" he said.
