Rejected Me Once Never Fool Me Twice (Watt) novel Chapter 3

I woke up with a splitting headache. What the heck happened?

"Oh Serene, I am so glad you’re awake. You gave us a scare," Mom says, rushing to my side.

She places a cup of water down and sits beside my bed.

"What happened?" I ask groggily.

"I don't know, Alpha Zander brought you unconscious. He said he found you in the bush unresponsive. The doctor said it might be a rogue attack. I am just glad you are okay," she hugs me.

Attacked?

My bedroom door opens again, my eyes meet hers, and that is when everything starts coming back.

Crystal and Alpha Zander.

They were kissing.

Him choosing her over me.

The rejection.

Averia's pain.

'Ria,' I called out to her.

'Yeah,' her weak voice responds.

'What is wrong? Are you okay?' I ask worriedly.

'I am trying to be strong for us. I am dying by any minute. I need mate,' she whimpers weakly.

'He rejected us, Ria,' I almost yelled at her. She whimpers in pain and retreats to the back of my head.

"Oh Serene, I am so glad you are okay," Crystal says and rushes to climb my bed.

She takes my hands into hers, and I immediately pull away as if she burned me.

She did burn me.

In the worst way possible.

"Don't touch me," I glared at her.

"Serene! Don't be rude to your little sister. You don't know how much she has cried for you," Mom scolds and walks into my bathroom.

"Did you tell them the truth?" she asks worriedly.

"How can I do that if I just woke up? You already know Mom is going to know her little daughter is a two-faced whore and mate stealer," I tell her.

"Don't call me that! I loved Zander way before he even became the Alpha. Don't pretend I didn't notice how you looked at him; I knew you also liked him, but I was too deep to let him go. I am sorry this happened, but nothing can be done about it," she says.

"A lot of things can be done about it. You can find your own mate and leave mine alone. You are so young, Crystal,it will be very odd for you to find before your 19th birthday!" I tell her.

"I can't, " she whispers.

"Why can't you?" I asked.

"I am sorry Serene but I can't, I am already carrying Zander's child," she says, and my face falls and my heart drops.

"What! What! How can you do that! Why will you do that to me ! Does Mom know about any of this? You are only 18 fucking years old." I asked,my voice was full of anger.
