Rejected Mate's Redemption (Freda and James) novel Chapter 3

Chapter 3
FREDA WHITLOCK
Ok…I think I have made a very big mistake.
Safiya stood in front of me sobbing tragically like a beauty in need of help.
“What have I done to you Freda, why the sudden hate on me” Safiya cried, her beautiful green orbs which we had both inherited from our mother was glistening with tears.
Her pointed nose was red from sniveling.
“Why are you crying like a little child, it’s not like Freda said anything wrong to you” Lyra scowled at Safiya, I knew that if I wasn’t holding onto her hands, then she would have flown at Safiya and battled it out with her.
“That’s a lie Lyra because she is your friend doesn’t mean that you should support her wrongdoing” Sophia,one of Safiya’s friends countered.
She was such a nosy b**h, one that I detested and many times I had fantasized of pulling out her hair.
“”You little imp, I’m going to pull out all your teeth! What do you mean by siding with Freda?” Lyra said, her face enraged. Sophie whimpered and stepped back.
“What’s going on here?” I heard Kaiden’s deep voice and I felt my heart s**p a beat at the sheer amount of authority his voice

carried.
Safiya pounced into his arms and burst into loud cries.
Kaiden whispered soothing words to her while rubbing her mass of blonde tresses soothingly.
I stared at the loving couple before me, envy in my eyes.
Once Safiya had calmed down, Kaiden looked at me before saying “I want to see you in my office right now, Freda”
He carried Safiya in his arms into the pack house.

“I expected better than this from you” Kaiden began.
I crossed my hands and waited for him to continue his judgefull tirade
“you know how soft hearted your sister is, you should try to put up with her sometimes…”
“You never asked what she did to me, all you keep on saying is that I should put up with her, well I don’t want to anymore” I spat
out.
He looked at me with raised eyes
“Oh is this all about my request? Why can’t you be understanding for once”
“Understanding?I’ve been trying to be understanding for a very long time now, yet what do I get in return?She rubs it in my face that she owns you, that she would reject her mate even if she

finds him because you belong to her?” I asked.
I watched Kaiden’s eyes widen in realization.
“Oh..you already know about her plans? Yet you still ask me to Wait till she’s 18?, why do you keep on lying to me?” I yelled at him.
Kaiden raked his hands through his head and walked closer to me “I’m going to convince her Freda, I made a promise to you and I will try to keep it “he said and pressed a kiss on my forehead.
‘-reject him’ Gia growled at me, she has always been saying this since we found out that Kaiden was our mate but I paid deaf ears to her.
I’ve loved Kaiden even before I found out he was my mate and I’ve always wished to become his mate so I wouldn’t let go of such an opportunity.
“Stop that, it’s yucky!” I heard Safiya squeal from the opposite side of the table,I looked at them and indeed they were entangled together.
Kaiden was trying so hard to feed her orange jelly, which Safiya was not a fan of.
“Disgusting” Lyra who was beside me scoffed.
“What’s your deal with them? Why do you hate them so much or is there something you are not telling me?” I asked her.
Lyra shrugged.

“I just keep on feeling that they don’t match, they won’t make good Alpha and Luna together” Lyra said.
“You are the first person saying this, everyone says that they suit each other” I answered, inside of me, I was feeling giddy that someone finally saw them as unfit for each other.
“Listen up everyone, I have good news for y’all” Safiya suddenly said, jolting me out of my thoughts.
I looked at her with interest, wanting to know what she was about to say.
“You all know that September is my birthday and I’m turning 18 on that day but since Kaiden will most likely be my mate, we have decided to get engaged next week,”She said with a wide smile on her face.
I felt the world around me stop as my heart broke into pieces.
Like a puppet being controlled,I stood up from my seat and objected.
“That would never happen”
I felt the eyes of the whole pack on me, including the eyes Kaiden who was desperately winking at me to sit down but hell I was tired of keeping everything locked up in my heart.

“You guys may not know, including you Safiya but Kaiden is my mate and he knows too” I began.
There was a loud murmur in the pack as Safiya looked at Kaiden in a surprised and hurt me way.
“For two years I watched my mate kiss and treat another

woman lovingly while all I was to him was a sex partner, he only came to me when he was in need of sex while he showered all his sincere feelings on my own sister” by now painful and bitter tears were rolling down my cheeks.
‘reject him now! Reject him, we don’t need a s**ag like himc Gia’s voice came again, this time more strongly than before.
I decided to listen to her this time, I was tired of the pain that bore everyday in my heart
“I…
“Don’t do that Freda” I could hear Kaiden’s pleading voice but I wasn’t listening to him anymore.
I took a deep breath and continued
“I, Freda Whitlock, daughter of the beta of Flaming wolf pack, reject you Kaiden Stirling as my mate, from today onwards all fate holding us together has been broken and nothing will join us again” I said.
I heard him howl loudly, was it in pain, I didn’t know.
But I and my wolf felt pain, pain stemming from the rejection and continuous betrayal of our mate.
“No” I whimpered as I felt myself slipping into darkness.
The last thing I heard was Kaiden’s continuous howl.
