I Rejected You, Alpha

ELEIA’S POV

—

I clear my throat as Aiden and I inch closer to her .

“You can stop there .” She deadpans while still looking at Felix , the tip of her index finger rubbing over his cheek .

I halt in my steps , hating that she has the life of my child in her hands , literally .

It makes my skin crawl and my heart pound in my ears .

All I can do is stare at them with horror filled eyes and panic as I wait for her to do something , anything .

Her head slowly raises and her eyes lock on Aiden , “He is a catch .” She grins devilishly before looking at me with a numb expression on her face .

It’s the kind of look that promises death and makes my heart skip a beat .

“Don’t worry . You delivered . Here .” She holds Felix out and I don’t hesitate to step forward , clutching the syringe in my fisted hand that hands by my side.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Step aside .” She demands Aiden and I inwardly shake because of the disrespect towards him .

He loathes it , it makes his head snap .

I glance back at Aiden momentarily and he moves to the side and forward , standing to the side of her with a glare directed right at her .

Getting close to her was like getting close to the devil .

There was no humanity in her eyes , it was just all black and gloomy .

“Please .” I hold out my hand and she nods with a sly smirk .

Even if she did not care about me or Felix , she is honorable and I beg the Moon Goddess to forgive us for doing what we think is right , because in her eyes , it might not be .

I only lift the hand with the syringe in it when she can’t see and I take Felix from her arms , standing in front of her I can’t keep my eyes off my boy .

His cheeks are flushed , but he’s still perfect .

I don’t glance at her , trying to make her think I am paying no attention to her before I feel the syringe in my hand and I grunt as I throw my arm forward , clutching Felix in the other before stabbing her in the chest , pushing the liquid into her right between the ribs .

The way her eyes flick over to me and darken even more as they grow wide makes my hands shake . I let go of the syringe , letting it stay inside of her before I slowly step back and then I jolt to the side before she could attack .

A loud threatening growl escapes her as she leaps to try and grab me , but Stefan shifts , leaping in between me and her to protect Felix and I .

He bumps her into the opposite direction and soon , the wolves she brought , come for me .

I glance back , fear coursing through me as they are catching up but I focus on getting Felix to safety .

ELEIA’S POV

—

I clear my throat as Aiden and I inch closer to her .

I keep on running , the warriors taking them down one by one behind me .

The sound of death and destruction makes vile rise in my throat .

I don’t know where Aiden is , but threats and growls echo around me until I’m inside .

I slam the door , breathing heavily as I stare down at my boy .

“Mommy has you Felix baby .” I sway him as he starts to cry .

“It’s okay .” I pace before he falls back asleep .

I shakily peak out of the window , staring at the fallen enemies laying on the floor and when my eyes catch the sight of Aiden laying on the floor , my heart sinks .

I glance down at Felix before I walk to the couch and put him down with pillows around him .

He’s okay , he’s okay…

I repeat those two words as I run out of the house , sprinting as I see Stefan lifting him off the ground .

“Get a car !” He yells at me from afar , making me halt .

My body wants to continue to run forward , to see if my mate is alright , but my mind keeps me frozen in place , yelling at me to get a car to drive my mate to the hospital .

I turn on my heel as my heart bleeds and grab the keys , rushing back out and I start the car , reversing before getting out and I grab Rosie by the shoulders .

“He is on the couch , do not let him out of your sight .” My nails dig into her skin and even if I know I am hurting her , she doesn’t say anything as she nods .

Stefan jumps in behind the wheel and I get in the back with Aiden , his passed out body making me want to scream .

He looks dead .

“What happened ?” I ask , my voice shaking .

“No f*****g clue but I found a syringe in his shoulder .”

My b***d freezes as I stare at Stefan through the rear view mirror and he steps on the gas , driving faster and my eyes almost pop out of my head as he barely stops in time before driving into the hospital .

I climb out and rush in , holding the door open .

“Poison emergency ! It’s the alpha ! Help !” I yell at the top of my lungs as I try not to cry .

My entire body wants to give in and sob , but we need to save his life .

I watch as Stefan carry Aiden over his shoulder effortlessly and as he steps inside , there’s an entire medical team .

“What poison ?” The doctor snaps and I stare at Stefan , “Yellow wolfsbane .” He croaks , dragging a hand through his hair as we watch Aiden being rolled away .

The Doctor doesn’t say anything before following the rest and Stefan and I stand and stare blankly .

“Stefan.. I …” my voice cracks , “I know .” Is all he says .

I can’t stop pacing , I hate myself for this . I should have just offered myself up instead , I should have told Elizabeth that if she really wanted revenge and to make Aiden hurt , she just had to kill me and take Felix back .

I know that Aiden would have taken care of him , even when I was gone .

He would have been a great dad . I don’t even care if he moved on with someone who is kind and would love Felix too , but here I am , standing in a hospital , wishing that I could have sacrificed myself instead of him getting hurt .

This poison is deadly and I don’t know the antidote , I don’t even know if there is a cure for it .

“Is there something the doctor can do to save him ?” I ask in a mere whisper .

“Yeah . There’s a cure , but half of it is not pretty .” He sighs before stepping back until his back hits the wall .

He slowly slides to the floor , staring blankly at the hallway .

I go sit across from him , “What is the ugly part ?” I fumble with the laces of my shoes .

“The first part is simple , inject him with the cure that shoots through the veins and then sedate him . The second part… well where the needle was injected , they have to burn the poison out from there .” His jaw tightens , “They’re going to burn him ?” My eyes widen and he just stares past me at the hall .

“Stefan .” I snap my fingers in front of him .

“Yes , but he’ll heal . That’s the only way .” His eyes flick down .

I don’t think I have ever seen Stefan like this . He looks so lost , but it’s probably because Aiden is his best friend , his rock .

“Will he make it ?” I chew on my bottom l*p .

“He will , if they move fast enough .” His knees are pulled up , his wrists hung over his kneecaps .

“He’s strong and he loves you . He will fight .” He nods , “He loves you too .” I smile , feeling like he needs to hear that .

“I know , but we don’t say it .” He shrugs and I frown at him , “Why not ? I tell Rosie I love her .” I shrug and the way his eyes roll to the back of his head makes me scoff , “Guys can do it too .” I argue to his silence .

“It sounds gay .” He snorts , blinking away the unshed tears .

“It isn’t . Love is not gay and it’s also not wrong to be gay . Love is love and it’s amazing and powerful .” I smile and he nods .

“I never told him I loved him and now he might die .” The emotion in his tone makes my heart ache .

“You’ll get the chance and once you do say it , you’ll see it’s not weird .” I wink before I scoot in beside him .

Aiden will be fine , I believe it , I believe in our love and I believe that he will fight to come back to me .
