Rejected, Abused, I Fall for the Forbidden Alpha (by Riley Scott) novel Chapter 290

Chapter 290

Asher POV

I headed outside, breathing in the fresh air, my body relaxing as I walked, no destination in mind.

It was just me, Aaron already cloistered in the study with Damien and Marissa, still trying to track down who was responsible for the rogues infiltrating their territory.

They’d been working hard, investigating and pursuing every avenue, but so far they had come up blank.

Except for the dead bodies, there was nothing to tie anybody from the pack as being the perpetrator.

I just hoped Aaron might be done by this afternoon so we could spend time together.

I walked around the pack house and instantly came in contact with Candice, the omega who had tried to embarrass me before. There was a look on her face that instantly made me recoil. It wasn’t just a dislike she had for me; it was something more. She looked half-crazed as she sneered at me, two of her friends standing behind her, mimicking her actions.

“Oh look,” she trilled, tilting her head and giving me a fake smile, “it’s that little slut who thinks our Beta has a thing for her. The useless little girl who mooches off him and doesn’t do a damn thing to help the pack.”

I was not in the mood for this shit, and especially for her. I shook my head with exasperation and turned around, but she grabbed my arm and yanked me, forcing me to turn and look at her in shock.

“I wasn’t finished talking to you,” she hissed. “How dare you just walk away like that? I don’t know what Aaron sees in you; you’re not his type. He’s had hundreds of girls, and you’re average, hell, not even that,” she laughed, “in comparison.”

I tried not to react, knowing she was just trying to rile me up.

“You must have some special tricks in bed to keep him as interested in you as he is,” she added crudely,” but that’s hardly going to last forever. He’ll grow bored with you soon enough,” she taunted.

“You’re disgusting,” I shot out, my hands clenching tightly into fists, “you have a dirty mind,” I growled, ” and you should keep your thoughts to yourself.”

“Oh please. Everybody heard you the other night. You sounded just like a prostitute in a brothel,” she mocked, “or maybe it was your virginity that captured his interest and not you.”

Her friends laughed, tossing their hair over their shoulders.

Obviously groupies of Candice. I guess every villain has sidekicks to carry out their dirty work. Candice was no different.
