Rejected By My Mate novel Chapter 10

Queen Elisha glares at me. "How did you know?! No one should know!" she spat furiously. Her fist was clenching. The ground was also shaking, and the wind blew furiously.

"Can you control your temper?" I said calmly while rolling my eyes. "Look, I saw your past. I didn't mean to see it, it just flashed in my head when you touched me." I explained.

Her eyes narrowed more. "I don't believe you. Who are you??!"

"As I said earlier, I don't know. All I know is that I am different from everyone else." The ground stopped shaking, and the wind came back to normal.

She sighed and studied me intently. "I can't even figure you out, which is strange. You smell like a werewolf, a vampire, and then a witch. Are you a hybrid or something? Who are your parents?" I was stunned.

Did she mention a hybrid? Am I? I looked at Layla when she spoke. "You also think she is a hybrid? So I am right?"

Queen Elisha looks at us with a creased forehead. "Get in the car."

"Where are you taking us?"

"To my home."

"No. We don't want witches to kill us."

"I'll be taking you to my other home in the human, not in my Palace. Now, get in."

I looked at Layla, then she nodded. Great. I rolled my eyes and got in the car. Layla took the backseat. So I have no choice but to sit beside Queen Elisha.

"Buckle your seatbelt." I just look at her with a creased forehead. Then she chuckled, "You don't know how to put a seatbelt on?"

"Stating the obvious, duh," I said, rolling my eyes. She laughed and used her magic to buckle your seatbelt. Cool. Then she starts the engine and drives away from that place.

"By the way, you cannot call me by my real name. In the human world, I am Sabrina Smith. What's your name?"

"Nice name. I am Andrea Caliber." her forehead creased and then smirked. Looks like she knows I am lying.

"And I am Layla Boehringer."

"You are a Boehringer? That's why you look familiar. You look like her..." Sabrina said while nodding her head.

"Who?" Layla asked, intrigued.

"She's Michelle Boehringer, a friend of mine."

"What?" Layla said while her forehead creased and eyebrows furrowed together in confusion.

"She's also a werewolf, like you." I look at Layla and right now I can hear her fast heartbeat.

"Do you have a sister?" she shrugged her shoulders and said, "I don't know. I remember nothing."

"Maybe Michelle knows something you don't know." We nodded and sat in silence. Sabrina turned on the radio and music blared. The entire ride, I just listened to music. I saw Layla fall asleep in the back.

"I know you're lying about your name," Sabrina mumbled out of the blue. I look at her suspiciously.

"Alexandria Gregory, isn't it?" my eyes narrowed, and I clenched my fist tightly. "Don't worry. I mean no harm. I'll help you get to Tibbertan Mountains, but not so soon." I stare at her in shock.

"How do you know?" she smirked.

"As you did earlier when I touched you, I saw your painful past." I sighed. I think it's the ability of a witch.

‘Yeah, Alex. But be careful with the Queen. We can't trust anyone like what your father said, okay?’ Willow said.

I know, Willow. But right now, I have no choice but to stick with her. She can help us go through those mountains.

"Strange how I can't read your mind," Sabrina uttered and glanced at me.

I chuckled and replied, "I block you."

"Silly girl," she said, and laughed.

"Why are you helping us?" I asked her seriously.

"Let's just say, helping you will also help me with something I have been looking for," she said.

"You also want to go to that mountain, do you? You are looking for answers too, like me?" I asked.

"Yeah."

"Your parents also got killed," I mumbled. She grips the steering wheel tightly. She glared at me, and I chuckled.

"I'm right then."

"Shut up," she said through gritted teeth.

Silence enveloped us. I left it like that. She became all mushy. I closed my eyes and released a long breath, then drifted off to sleep.

I woke up at the sound of talking. I slowly flickered my eyes open.
