CHAPTER 1 Mated In Chaos

Elara

"I, Alpha Connor Tomson, reject you, Elara Silvius, as-" he stops, and a wicked smile forms on his full lips, " I won't reject you. You'll carry around the bond and get to suffer with it. It is payback for what your mother did to my sister," He sneers.

Am I imagining this? What the fuck is happening right now. I can't speak. I'm too shocked. The room is spinning, and my heart is pounding against my chest. I finally open my mouth to speak,

"But why?" my voice is a whisper.

"Didn't you fucking hear me?" Alpha Connor is annoyed now.

"I- I did, but why are you rejecting me? We mated," I say, looking around his suite. Our clothes clattered on the floor. He took my virginity!

He walks towards me coldly, his face stoic. I'm going crazy with perplexity.

Yesterday was the mating ball in the pack, and unmated wolves from different packs came to my pack, the Autumn Moon in hopes of finding a prospective bride or mate. I wasn't expecting to find mine, but I did. It was Alpha Connor. He was so sweet and caring. He convinced me to leave my pack that moment, and like a fool in love, I did and came to his pack. We mated, and now he's telling me this?

He puts his hands in his pockets and sits on the couch, drinking his whiskey.

"Elara Silvius, I've always had my eye on you," he gulps his liquor. " It was my plan all along to kidnap you and torture you. I wanted retribution because your mother killed my beloved sister, and because of that, my mother was stricken with grief and madness,"

I freeze in place, staring at him. He continues, " I went to the ball to kidnap you, but it ended up we are mates! The gods are on my side, and little Miss Heads in the cloud was so eager to come with me without knowing who you're going with!" he laughs like a sick man, and I shudder.

"I hate you and your family so fucking much, and I'll use you to take out all my anger on them," he snarls. I don't stare or speak. I am numb, and so are my legs. My mate hates me, the mate I wanted my whole life. The mate I left my pack and family for doesn't want me.

'Elara, snap out of it, and stop crying!' My wolf's voice, Ara, jolts me. She has always been my greatest support system and strength. She is so strong and won't let a man keep her down, but I need a minute to come to terms with this. Connor gets to his feet again and tucks a strand of hair behind my ear. His lips form into a disgusting smirk,

"Get ready, Mate, it's time to meet my pack," he walks out to the door but turns when he touches the door knob, " You were not a shabby fuck for a virgin," he winks and leaves the room.

All air leaves my lungs, and I fall to the floor. I don't know how long I sat there, but it seemed like forever when the door opened, and an older woman walked in.

"Miss Silvius, wear this. There is a party downstairs," she looks at me with disdain. Now, the servants don't respect me? I inhale and get to my feet, raising my head to her.

"Where's Connor?" I ask her sternly. She blankly stares at me, and I take dangerous steps towards her.

"Where's your Alpha?" Ara growls, making the woman shiver in fear. I was taken aback and couldn't react when that bastard Connor was here, but I'm over the shock now. It's time to reject his ass and get the fuck out of this place.

"T- The Alpha is welcoming the guests at the party," her voice is shaking. I grab the clothes from her hands and go to the bathroom. I stare in the mirror. My body is bruised after the passions of last night. Now that I look back at it, the way he treated me while we mated was hostile and brutal, but I took it as him being anxious to meet me, so I went with the flow. I took a shower and came out. I studied the dress given to me. It was hideous with lacy long sleeves that were an awful color. I wouldn't say I like it. I search the drawers and find a pair of scissors. I cut the long sleeves and made it mid-length. I put on the makeup that was on my back and brushed my long, golden hair before wearing the heels. I look into the mirror and smile.

'Sexy, Elara,' My wolf, Ara, says.

With one deep breath, I step out of the room and head to the hall. I can see a crowd of people chatting and drinking. I realized I didn't know anyone there. I sigh and descend the stairs to what looks like a ballroom. I feel many eyes on me, some of disdain, others of admiration. I hold their gaze. A loud growl resonates from the crowd, and I realize it's Alpha Connor. He looks pissed at me. That is what I wanted.
