Pregnant and Rejected by My Alpha Mate

Chapter 135

#Chapter 135- Arabella Weaves A Web of Lies

Bastien

“What are you saying?” i demand. “Who is Selene?” The name seems to be ringing a bell in the very back of my mind, but I have no idea why. Of course, if what Arabella is saying is true, I would expect her name to be familiar. It simply isn’t possible. My father can’t be dead.

“Selene is your wife.” Arabella sighs.

“No.” Shaking my head, I raise my palms to her in denial. “You’re lying. I don’t have a wife, and if I did, it would be you.” I’ve always planned on marrying Arabella, ever since that horrible day Flynn died to protect me. It seemed like the least I could do in order to ensure she was always taken care of.

“Bastien, you broke our engagement when you met Selene.” Arabella’s voice is firm and steady, overflowing with patience. “She’s well she’s a con artist, some might even call her a witch. She convinced you she was a helpless victim of a wolf called Garrick, she convinced you that you two were mates and manipulated your sympathy in order to make you do her bidding. You killed Garrick for her, and then somehow she made Gabriel order you two to be wed. I don’t know how she did it, but the Alpha commanded the union. So you obeyed.”

“How is that possible?” I insist, none of this makes any sense.

“As I said, she convinced you that she was your mate.” Arabella exhales deeply, settling on the edge of my bed with a forlorn smile, “I didn’t stand a chance. You two wed, and left the pack for a while. I traveled, saw the world, started looking for my own mate… it wasn’t until learned you’d finally seen through her act and were planning a rejection that I went back to Elysium.”

“A rejection?” | parrot, feeling as if I’m a bumbling idiot, repeating her every word. “But you just said we were still married.”

A tragic expression crosses the blonde’s features, and her big brown doe-eyes overflow.

“The day of your rejection, she paid an assassin to break into Gabriel’s office and kill him. In the chaos that followed, all talk of a rejection ceased.”

“Why would she do such a thing?” I inquire, still not believing my ears.

“Because she wanted to control the pack, and if she lost you, that would never happen.”
