His Rejected Mate #2

Chapter 1- Reed

Rea's POV
My baby boy is 18 already! And sadly I'm 26. Ever since we moved miles out of town at night I had to sneak out and do my job. As soon as he turned 16 I told him everything. And he accepted the fact that I ran away for our protection. Ever snide then we have lived in the woods in a small mansion. "Mom I'm leaving!" Reed called from the living room I quickly jumped from the island and gave him a bone crushing hug.

"Bye Reed" I smiled at him. Him being 6'6 and me 5'0 didn't help the problem at all. "Bye mom" he hugged me. As he pulled out I watched with teary eyes, my baby is growing up so fast. I just wish that his father could see this.

Zander's POV
First day of school. And 12 years since my Aunt Realene left me. As soon as she crossed that border my memories flooded my mind. I remember so clearly the day my father and Uncles walked in the house tears streaming down their face. That day still haunted me in my dreams. Since that Matthew, my father, my mother, and unless haven't aged a god damn bit. Shaking my head I leaned against my locker holding talking with my best friend and Alex's son James. Soon a HUGE crowd formed at a locker and I craned my neck to see.

I looked at the man down the hall he had my dead Aunt's eyes. He wore ripped skinny jeans, a black muscle tee, gray beanie, thick rimmed glasses, and gold high tops. People surrounded him asking him questions or drooling over his killer looks. He smelled of rouge to me but no one else seemed to notice. Ever since Rea's death me and my pack have hated rouges and we kill them without hesitation. As I said my Uncles and father haven't aged him I was six and I'm eighteen now. And he looked the same age as me for gods sake!

My feet started walking without giving my brain time to re gesture what they were doing. Soon I was standing shoulder to shoulder with him he smelled faintly of cotton candy and blue raspberry. 'Aunt Rea smelled like that' I sighed sadly in my head. When the bell rang people scattered but he stayed and so did I.

"Reed Anderson" he said casually leaning against his locker I assumed.
"What?"
"My name is Reed Anderson" he repeated annoyed.
"Zander Walker" I said automatically.
"I know" he smiled mischievously and walked off towards class leaving me to stunned for words.

Reed's POV
I walked off to my class leaving Zander stunned. The day passed pretty quickly and I made friends pretty easy enough. My vampire and daemon seemed pretty restless towards the end of the day 'what's wrong?' I asked Blaze my daemon 'Fire and Scar' he groaned. 'They are in danger again' Xale my vampire chimed in just so you know they are super protective over my mother's forms. I sighed and ran a hand through my hair I don't like the thought of her out on the hunt all alone with danger around every corner.

Deciding to leave after lunch 'cause I have free periods I jumped in black 2015 mustang and sped home. Pulling into the house I smelled blood. Rushing into the house the scent got stronger until I reached outside. Outside my mother was in her cloak fighting with rouges and she had nunchucks in her hands. Amused I leaned against the house smiling as I watched the rouges dying one by one. As soon as the last one dropped to the ground her cloak disappeared with the snap of her fingers and she wore ripped skinny jeans, a blood red crop top that showed a mini diamond belly ring, black wedge heels and her piercings and tattoos on full display.

Swiftly she flicked her wrist and watched the bodies burn and she turned to me glaring across the hard I flinched under her intense stare. In the blink of an eyes she stood in front of me smiling like the nut case she is "I missed you" she chirped and threw her arms around me and I gladly returned the hug. Guess you could say I am a momma's boy. "I have friends.... well actually my cousins coming over" I admitted. "They have sons?" She asked sadly and I nodded walking us inside. "I missed so much of their lives" she cried putting her hands over her eyes and sobbing.

My mother is my idol. Know why? All my life she has been there for me and supported me through everything. She's like a superhero and mom rolled into one. Hey! She's super mom! Even on my tough days she's right there beside me helping me through it. Every little step at a time. And now it's my turn to comfort her. Taking her in my arms I hugged my mother close letting her cry into my chest while I softly stroked her hair. Finally her sobs turned into hiccups and she hugged me back "what did I do to deserve a son like you?" She hiccuped "your the best mom ever" I told her.

She gave me one last squeeze and smiled sadly at me "your friends will be here in 3,2,1" she counted and I heard the door bell ring. She dried her red puffy eyes and walked to the door with me. This time someone rung the doorbell and pounded on the door my mom straightened her shoulders and plastered a smile in her face. I opened the door as James was going to knock on the door instead he knocked on my chest. There stood James, Zander, Cameron (Logan's son), Titus (Adam's son), and Kaiden (Chase's son). My mother changed her hair and eyes color to black and stepped from behind me.

"I'm Christmas Reed's mom" she smiled warmly "nice to meet you I'm Zander" he smiled and shook her hand. "James" he grinned "Titus" he kissed her knuckles "Kaiden" he smirked. She ushered them inside but they stayed rooted in place staring at the house. I have to admit it is a small mansion but on the inside it's HUGE! Finally they snapped out of it and followed me to the game room or 'man cave' as my mother calls it. We played the Xbox one for hours and my mother made food which the guys ate greedily.

Looks like I'm going to have to keep the secret until mum gives me the ok.
