Facing His Reject

Three {Edited Version}

*
One month and three days since Cole rejected me.

I don't hate him.
I knew he lived Lily and I respected that.

But I refuse to talk to him.  I cannot physically be his best friend.

So far the entire school knows.

I'd prefer they didn't. I can't stand the whispers and sympathy. The pity is smothering me.

Granted that I'm wallowing in it. My life went from zero to one hundred real quick.

Cole avoids me,  I haven't said a word to him.

"Accept the rejection. Shift back and accept it. You'll feel better; I promise."

Those were the words that he said to me. Not "I'm sorry," nothing.

At first I managed to convince myself it was just a bad dream. That hope has slowly faded away.

It was replaced with  the feeling of numb surrealness. I haven't spoken. Unless I have to of course. I only eat when  I feel as if I am about to pass out.

I've only shifted six times since then.

My life sucks.

I walk through the schools hallways, everyone stops to stare. I growl at them and surge onwards. Slowly they return with their meaningless teenage conversations.

After first period I was walking the halls when I saw him.

He and Lily were lip locking.

Gag.  I shuddered and went to open my locker.

Sol walked up to me. He smiled at me.

FACE PALM. I can't believe I forgot I had accepted his date offer.

"I am so, so s-"

"Don't worry about it.  You had  a pretty valid reason. " He cuts in with a pointed look at Cole. I sigh and nod.

"Let me make it up for you. I'll take you to dinner tomorrow.  Say,  eight o'clock?" He offers with bright smile.

I think about this. I could feel the tension ripple through the air. Should I accept.

"Sure.  I need to get on with my life after all. See you then alright?"

As an afterthought I stand on my tiptoes and kiss his smooth cheek.

All of a sudden he's ripped from me. Cole slammed Sol against the lockers. Denting them,  Sol groans his eyes black and teeth elognating.

"Keep your filthy paws of my mate before I cut them off." Cole growls lowly, menacingly in his ear.

White rage pulsed through me. I was about to act on it when Sol flipped them around. He put his arm across his throat and roared.
"She hasn't been yours since the day you decided it'd be smart to reject her. Don't you ever assume otherwise. You can't have them both." Sol defended.

He dropped Cole and grabbed my arm,  leading me away.

One last look at Cole confirmed what I had suspected.

He was heartbroken and torn. I almost ran back to him.

Almost.

Cole-
Sol walked up to her. He smiled at Cara.

My Cara.

"I am so, so s-"

"Don't worry about it.  You had  a pretty valid reason. " He cuts in with a pointed look at me. She sighs and nods.

"Let me make it up for you. I'll take you to dinner tomorrow.  Say,  eight o'clock?" He offers with bright smile.

She appears to think about this. I could feel the tension ripple through the air.
Would she accept it?

"Sure.  I need to get on with my life after all. See you then alright?"

As an afterthought she stood on her tiptoes and kissed his cheek.

A white hot jealousy filled me. I knew what I was about to do was wrong. But I couldn't help it. I slammed Sol against the lockers. Denting them,  Sol groans his eyes black and teeth elongating.

"Keep your filthy paws of my mate before I cut them off." I growl lowly,  menacingly in his ear.

Filtering rage passed through Cara's eyes. What was I doing? Cara wasn't my mate anymore. I couldn't keep tugging her on like a doll. I was about to drop him when Sol flipped us around. He put his arm across my throat and roared.
"She hasn't been yours since the day you decided it'd be smart to reject her. Don't you ever assume otherwise. You can't have them both." Sol defended.

He dropped me and grabbed Cara's arm,  leading her away.

One last look at me must have confirmed what she'd suspected.

I was a confused and heartbroken mess. What the heck is wrong with me?

One thought was there.

I refuse to let any other male touch her. She was mine. My Cara.  My beautiful mate. And no one would touch her. I guess not even me.

But I will not let someone grab her away. Once everything is settled,  I'll find my way back to her. And we'll be happy together. Until then,  no male is allowed between two feet of her.

How was the chapter guys?  I hope you all liked it. Will upload later probably.

Dedicated to everyone who has commented and read so far. Love you guys!
