Chapter 1
Bella's pov
I winced when the needle pierced my arm, the doctor gave me a gentle smile.
"I forgot to warn you that it will hurt," he said.
"It's okay," I said.
It was. I would do absolutely everything for my sister. Kate needed blood and I was a match, not that it was a problem.
I would search the world to find her blood type if I wasn't.
The doctor took out the needle and carried the blood out to the lab. I gently stood up to avoid getting dizzy.
My head swayed but I held onto the chair, I had to be near my sister. I didn't want to be away from her.
I headed back to her room , the dark spots dancing around my vision. I got to her room and I was surprised to find it locked.
We had asked for a private room but I left the door open just in case. I placed my hand on the handle when a shiver ran through me.
I furrowed my brows.
I turned the knob and pushed the door open, my eyes narrowed on the two figures on the bed, naked.
I bowed my head, "I am so sorry," I mumbled.
Afraid that I just interrupted an important moment for them, I moved to go away but I paused when my eyes settled on a very familiar handbag.
"Kate?" I asked.
My sister sprung apart from the guy she was kissing, her face flushed with guilt.
"Bella, I didn't mean for this to happen..." her hoarse voice faded away.
My eyes were caught on the man In front of me, his eyes refused to leave mine. I was caught in a trance.
My eyes trailed the length of him, my wolf screamed at me to claim him but after what I just saw, I was more confused than ever.
"Bella, meet my boyfriend. I was going to introduce you to him but this happened and well, haha you know the rest."
Her words brought me out of the fog and I blinked to make sure this wasn't a dream.
"Your boyfriend?" I asked,
She nodded excitedly and for the second time today, my heart lodged in my throat.
I should have felt happy for my sister since this was the first time she was bringing her mate home.
A few months ago, I found out my sister had indeed met her mate, she was reluctant to show me but I insisted.
I had asked why she was keeping it a secret but she told me she needed to be private because of his position in the pack.
I never met him till now.
"Uh, oh okay," I licked my lips. My heart raced with a thrill when his eyes tracked the movement.
I almost swooned at his face when his eyes met mine again.
The man looked at me from my head to toe, his eyes never missing an inch of my body. His eyes left something in me.
He stood up and left a confused Kate on the bed, he walked closer to me and looked at me with his eyes.
He was frozen, eyes never leaving mine.
"Bella," he began. He almost held my hand, but I withdrew. He hesitated to speak, and I could probably guess what he wanted to say to me.
My eyes automatically closed at the sound of his voice washed over me, the way he said my name had chills running down my back.
I opened my mouth to say something when the sound of hesitant footsteps stopped me,
I looked at my sister who was staring at us with confusion swimming in her eyes, my chest tightened.
She said nothing as she stared at me. My throat constricted as I watched her wrap her arms around him and snuggled into him.
Jealousy like I have never felt before flared inside me but I chased it away.
"Have you met before?" She asked, her eyes betraying everything she didn't want to voice out.
I wanted to tell Kate that he was my destined mate but I couldn't.
I couldn't do that to my sister.
I shook my head and smiled as brightly as I could, "no," I said.
She nodded but she wasn't convinced. I nodded at her to assure her that everything was okay.
"I am going to give you guys a minute." I said.
I closed the door behind me, my tears rolling out faster as I walked down the hallway. My hands on my lips to prevent the sobs from spilling out.
I turned the corner and sank to the floor in despair, my sobs came out harsher and I quickly dried my tears.
I closed my eyes and leaned against the hallway, scolding myself for showing signs of weakness.
A shadow fell over me and I opened my eyes, surprised to see him standing there with a grim face
I scrambled to my feet, meeting his eyes with mine. I refused to back down.
His lips thinned into a line, and my chest felt tighter.
"Bella,"
So softly but the sting it delivered felt like I was slapped. I felt like the world was slowly falling away from me but I kept my eyes on him.
I didn't dare look away even with the excruciating pain puncturing through my chest, I felt myself swallow as I took a shaky breath, the tears that I tried so hard to curb were building once again.
"Why?" I asked.
That question was packed with a whole lot of others.
Why did you pick my sister?
Why does it feel like you are about to reject me?"
"Please understand," he pleaded.
I felt myself go wild but I tamed it down. "I should understand? You haven't told me why."
He winced like I had physically hurt him,
"You are an omega and if I want to regain the position from the pack then I need someone strong like your sister by my side."
I stumbled back in shock. The reason was more hurtful than the betrayal.
I looked at him, hoping that my thoughts reflected in my eyes.
He was abandoning me for power?
I chuckled lowly, once again my sister had one.
Yes, she is beautiful and confident but she had stolen the one thing I wanted, my mate.
I knew she would be trouble. The day my father remarried and I was introduced to her, the first thing she did was take my toy and declare it as mine.
Now, the same thing was happening.
I am just an omega and because of that, my mate thought it was wise to discard me. I scoffed.
"I am sorry," he said.
I nodded. I wouldn't want to be with anyone so spineless and selfish like this.
"I Alpha Leo reject you, Bella as my mate.
I woke up to the incessant beeping beside me. I opened my eyes to see my sister weeping while my Stepmother consoled her.
I groaned when I turned to stretch, "what's going on?" I asked.
My voice was raspy because I had been crying too much. My eyes darted to the glass of water beside my bed and my sister grabbed it.
"Here," Kate said,
I drank the water before setting the glass back in her hands, "would someone answer me?"
Kate shook her head, "we don't know. We saw you passed out in the hallway."
My jaw dropped, the jerk didn't even look to see if I was breathing. I looked around and he was not in the room.
"Bella, you scared me child." My Stepmothersaid,
My chest was still hurting from the rejection and I wanted it to stop, my eyes automatically searched for him in the room.
I heaved a sigh of relief when I realized he wasn't there. I didn't want to see him, not after what he did.
"Bella, are you okay?" Kate asked softly.
My head moved before I could stop it, I nodded. Her eyes narrowed like she didn't believe me but I gave her a fake smile.
"I am okay, I promise. It must be because of the blood. I am weak from it." I assured her.
She stepped back a little but still didn't look convinced, I wanted to reassure her but I was still hurt from what happened.
How on earth is Kate his mate?
Kate seemed to get the drift because her eyes lit up. "Oh he said he had some emergency but he asked that you get well."
"Don't worry, you will get a chance to properly meet him," Kate said.
"He would be coming back," she squealed,
"Stop that," our Stepmother Chided,
Kate looked ashamed but she gave me an apologetic glance and I nodded.
I listened to them fuss over me for a while till the doctor cleared me to go. I was weak because my wolf's heart had been broken.
The doctor sent us on our way. My sister held me in her arms as we walked slowly towards the door.
My heart constricted as I watched them kiss till I wanted to puke. My wolf was hurt at their public display of affectionBut I wasn't hurt. Because I won't feel sorry for someone who abandoned me.
"Bella, come on." Kate called out.
I willed my legs to move till I found myself standing in front of them, I stared pointedly at my sister even when her eyes were on him.
At one point we were both abandoned in the woods. Our meeting started with distrust. His wounds were more than the gnashing scratches of the wilderness, it extended to trash his memories and kept him from truth more than once.

Our tale only began when we acknowledged our desires, yet the world around us conspired to thwart our every step. The both of us didn't want to doubt, yet, would our resilience and trust be enough to navigate through the jungle of doubts?
