Rejected by the Beta, Claimed by the Alpha

Chapter 10

‘My sweet Row, how are you doing and how is your uncle Jason? I received your letter and thought to respond immediately. You don’t have to worry about me anymore. Remember Charles’s brother from three years ago? He returned and is very different from Charles. He is also our new Alpha and he calls me mom, just like you. He buys groceries and I cook for both of us.

I doubt that he ever ate at the packhouse since his return. He has always spent his free times with me and gotten some young omegas to take care of the garden. I wish you had not left so early. He wanted to apologize on behalf of his brother but he does not want you to return without completing your education and has equally refused to take a Luna until your return. He said that he met you when he returned but did not know that you were leaving. Row, all is not lost. I just want you to know that I found happiness again.

You stated in your letter that you were in a dilemma because you were worried about how I am treated at the pack. I think. you can now decide on what to do. Let me know your decision in your next letter. Greetings to my brother Jason and his wife. I love you. Your only mum.”

A tear dropped down Rowena’s check, as she read the letter word by word. She recalled the man she met on the day she left. the pack. He looked familiar and she just realized that indeed, he was Jaxon, the Alpha’s first son. She also recalled feeling another mate bond and shook her head. Charles was also nice to her before. After realizing the mate bond, he ruthlessly rejected her. Maybe Jaxon also needed her to reject him, so he could move on. It should not be hard but the pain after rejection was just unbearable and she did not want to go through it again.

It was a selfish thing to do but she just had to protect her poor heart. Jaxon should just ignore the mate bond and mark someone else. That way, both of them would be free but Rowena was just not ready to face another mate. She would not even hope for it. Her destiny was already sealed from the moment she was born as an omega. Nothing good could come out

of her.

At the snow mountain pack, she was nothing, a mere omega but now in the human world, she was determined to make things right including rewriting her destiny. She needed do something worthwhile with her life. With a sigh, she folded the letter neatly before inserting it back into the envelope. Laying on her back, her gaze never left the white ceiling in deep thought:
