Rejected By My Alpha Mate

Chapter 16: Oh No, Oh Please No

Crystal's Pov

When I opened the door, I couldn't believe my eyes. There was a baby in a cardboard box sitting on the porch! I know dropping my phone may have been a little dramatic, but the baby, it didn't have a head.

"Oh my gosh," I whispered as I felt Love and Anna take my arms and pull into a group hug in which Skylar joined.

"Th-The poor baby," I cried.

No one responds and I know it's because they are trying not to sound like a hiccuping sobbing mess like me. I do know they're crying cause my shoulder's wet but that's beside the point.

     "Emmet, please come to the front door and tell out mates to do the same please," I mindlink to Emmet. I break the group hug and wipe my eyes.

     "Emmet's coming and will take care of," I pause trying my best to think of a word to call this so I don't burst out in tears, "this predicament."

     We all walk inside and sit down in the side living room, silence enveloping us.

"C'mon, the girls say they need us so let's- Skylar?" I hear Jack say.

     She doesn't respond and I hear a whimper from her. Our mates run over to us, and comfort us in each of their own little ways.

     "Are you okay, O.I.W.M.F?" Ethan asks, and it brings a small smile to my face because, I know it's weird, but I love it when he calls me that.

     "Yeah, but can we leave?" I ask him.

     "Leave where, Chrys?" He asks me.

"Anywhere me anywhere but here," he nods and picks me up bridal style in his arms.

     "Wait," I whisper, "I think they should come."

     "Are you sure?"

     "Yeah, I don't wanna leave them alone right now."

     "Okay,"

      Ethan sets me down in our bedroom, then runs downstairs probably to tell the others.

     I sit down, and think. Think who would've done this. Who would've killed a baby just to send it to me. Who and why?

     "Maybe it was Todd," Serena suggests.

"Probably not, he's too big of a wimp,"

"I'm just saying-"

"I'm sorry, but can you please stop saying things. I'm still trying to process this,' after I say that, she quietly whimpers and goes to the back of my mind. Okay maybe that was a bit rude. I should probably say sorry.

"Hey, we're ready to go. The car's started," Ethan says as he walks into the room.

"Thanks," I get up from the bed and walk over to Ethan. He puts his arm around my waist, and we go down the stairs.

We walk up to the car, and I open the car door and see Love, Skylar, and Anna sitting inside.

"Hey," I say to them as I scoot in.

"Hey,"

"Maybe, we could take our bikes instead?" Love suggests and we all nod.

    We get out of the car and tell the boys that we're taking our bikes. They agree and say they'll do the same.

     I walk over to my bike, which is blue with white wisps. I get on, and start to ride. With everyone following close behind me.

      "That was so much fun!" I shout biking back onto pack territory, almost soaking wet.

"Did you really have to push us into the lake, Ethan?" Aren shouts on his bike.

     "Yeah, I thought you were an Angel!" Skylar shouts.

     "Ehhem. Fallen Angel," Ethan corrects.

     "Crystal! Did you really have to start pushing everyone in?!" Anna screams.

     "Yeah!" I laugh. The ride really did help us forget about the thing.

      We get closer and closer to the pack house when I suddenly see about 100 people standing in front.

     "Well look who finally arrived!" A voice I hoped I would never hear again shouts.

I look up and see something horrible.

"Oh no, please no," I whisper as Anna, Love, and Skylar pull up their bikes beside me.

"Hello Mate."
