The Rejected Luna Queen novel Chapter 12

Aurora's POV

I panicked instantly as soon as I felt the Alpha's hands around my neck as he pounced on me, forcing me to the floor and trying to choke me out.

I struggled under his grip, twisting and turning to be free of him but it was of no use.

The fact that our bodies were plastered together didn't help at all as it elicited very crazy reactions from me. My hormones were all over the place and soon, it began to look like he was choking me for a sex session. His smell; oh, his smell was so intoxicating and I couldn't resist it. I felt like grabbing his neck and pulling him closer to me but I couldn't.

"I said, who are you?" Alpha Bane screamed, bringing me back to my senses.

"I'm your destined mate!" I blurted out rather mistakenly, much to my surprise. I was taken aback by his question. I never intended to say that to him; not at that point in the conversation.

He froze. He said nothing but kept staring at me, with his hands still on my neck although the hold wasn't tight anymore. I decided that I had to seize the opportunity to speak as I was so full of confidence and rid of every form of fear.

"As I walked down the corridor, I sensed your scent and traced it to this room and that's why I sneaked in," I lied. Well, it wasn't all a lie because I did sense his scent. Yet, I had planned to be there on my own accord; even before I approached the building where he was.

On hearing that, he released his hold on me and stared at me for a few seconds. "Hey, look at me this instant. Face me!" He commanded.

I turned around and faced him with very shaky feet. He had let go of me but his voice wasn't welcoming. It was so terrifying and I didn't know what to expect from him.

After I was done with my story, I felt he was touched, especially since he let go of me. But his widened nose and squinted face told a different story. He looked like he was ready to tear me apart if he had to. I just gazed at him with a confident, yet, sympathetic look, waiting for his next line of action.

"You're simply a liar and a thief, young lady! You thought you could sneak in here and steal from me didn't you?"

I gasped in shock.

Alpha Bane's POV

"You're a liar and a thief," I repeated, just in case she felt it was a mistake. "If not, how are you wearing a maid's uniform?"

"I–" she looked short of words, like someone who didn't know exactly what to say and how to say it.

"You'll be quiet this instant!" I interrupted, tired of hearing those words from her. Yet, within me, I had this feeling that she might have been telling the truth. My wolf thought the same too.

Yet, it brought up a question to my mind; does it mean that I have two mates? In all my life, I'd never heard of someone having two mates.

The scent of this lady was more enticing than that of the Princess and it got me intrigued.

I couldn't let her stay here. I had to find out more about what was going on so I decided that I was going to take her back to my pack.

I cleared my throat and felt the need to pass my message in very clear terms. "You're a simple thief and you'll be severely punished for sneaking into my house late at night," I began, watching her closely to know her reaction.

"Please," she begged, kneeling and shedding tears. "I'm not a thief. Don't do this to me, please."

I wasn't going to bulge. "This will serve as a lesson to any other woman who wants to do what you have done. This is my judgement and it's final!"

She lay on the floor and kept begging.
