Mated and Rejected by his Omega

"Fuck baby, you feel so fucken good," I grunted as I thrust harder into her.

The feeling of her walls clamping down around my cock was a sensation that I would never forget. As her soft moans reverberated around the room, I felt compelled to go deeper. When her nails began to dig into my back, a wave of chills ran up and down my spine. I had heard that one could have life's greatest pleasure when intimate with their destined mate. However, like so many stories, my own experience couldn't even begin to describe what I experienced. Closing my eyes, I relished the moment and recalled the second I saw her.

Nana and I had initially arrived for Daunte and Alessia's Alpha/Luna ceremony, a magnificent event; seeing the merging of two packs was never heard of, but to witness it was an honor. It wasn't until the reception started, and I was in the middle of speaking with Jonathan and Dominic, that I caught the most sensational scent of coconut and mango. The moment the scent entered my nose, nothing else mattered. It was as if a switch had been turned on, and the rest of the world around me had faded away.

My wolf, Lucifer, pushed me forward, pressuring me to seek out the scent that drew us together and which captivated our attention. As I glanced around the room, trying to locate where the sweet smell was coming from, suddenly, a sweet and familiar voice greeted me from behind, making my ears ring with sweetness.

"May I ask if you would like a refill?" came the sound of a voice I knew all too well.

My eyes were astonished when I turned around and saw the most beautiful she-wolf I had ever seen. Imagine my dismay when I realized the voice belonged to none other than Alessia's best friend, Jackie. The look on my face was one of shock as I stared at her. The two of us had worked together for quite some time and had grown close, but there had never been any indication that we were destined to be together.

"Jackie," I murmured her name, taking in her beauty as if it was the first time I had laid eyes on her. Her black hair was tightly tied into a high ponytail, freeing her face from any hair. The black satin dress she wore complimented her curves in just the right places, and a warm glimmer glowed in her hazel eyes as her pouty lips curled, and the word "Mate" escaped from her lips as if from nowhere. I gazed at her in pure admiration for a moment before stepping toward her, wrapping my arm around her waist, leaning into her, and whispering, "Let's talk."

"I'm working," Jackie murmured. Jackie had been Alessia's best friend for years, and while growing up, they bonded over their similar backgrounds; the main difference was that, unlike Alessia, Jackie was an omega.

"Wasn't there an invitation for you as a guest to attend your best friend's Alpha ceremony?" I asked, cocking my brow in confusion.

"Yes, there was, but I chose to work the event," Jackie replied with a smile.

Taking a step back and nodding, I smiled. "Would you please allow me five minutes of your time?" I asked her.

With a slight smile, Jackie obliged as she turned and led me to her quarters. At that moment, when the door closed, I lost control, and I rushed toward her, pulling her into me and giving her a deeply passionate kiss. In the midst of my sensual kisses, Jackie let out a soft moan as the soft massage of my lips sank into her skin. The sweet taste of her filled my mouth as I nibbled on her neck. Slowly, I backed her until we reached her bed, and I gently laid her down, a small smile gracing her beautiful face as we gazed into each other's eyes for a moment.

Slowly, I removed her clothes, revealing her exquisite curves and her soft skin. I gently kissed her lips and body, feeling my heart flutter as I looked into her eyes before gently making love to her. At that moment, I felt a deep connection, and I knew that I had fallen for her. Then, with one final thrust, we were both undone. We lay in each other's arms, our hearts racing and our breaths mingling. At that moment, I felt a deep sense of contentment that I had never experienced before.

"Goddess, had I known we would end up mated, I would have whisked you away long ago," I said as I turned to face her. My heart sank at that moment as I witnessed tears falling from her eyes. As I sat up and cradled her face, a wave of concern washed over me.

"What's wrong?" I asked her, trying to figure out what was occurring.

After a moment's silence, Jackie sat up and wrapped her arms around me before she started speaking to me.

"Luke, I'm so sorry," Jackie whispered.

"Why are you apologizing?" I asked, furrowing my brows in confusion. Had I done something wrong? Did I hurt her? I could hear Lucifer whining as he was hurt that our mate was in pain. "Please tell me, whatever it is, I will make it right," I told her.

Jackie shook her head. "That's just it; you can't make it right," Jackie replied.

"I can try if you let me," I told her, my voice slightly frustrated at the fact that she was doubting me. As I was about to say something else, Jackie spoke a few words that rocked my core.

"Luke, you are an exceptional man, but I am so sorry I can't do this," she said as she quickly rose to her feet and began to dress before rushing out of the room, leaving me in complete disbelief. I had no idea what she was referring to when she said she couldn't do this. The only thing that ran through my mind was perhaps she felt guilty for sleeping with me on the day of her best friend's ceremony.

Sighing, I rose to my feet, dressed, and returned to the reception hall. As I walked toward the entrance, I saw Hector and Daunte talking just outside the reception doors. Placing a smile on my face, I approached them.

"Alpha Daunte, congrats, bro," I told him, patting him on the back.

"Thanks, bro. How are you?" Daunte asked.

"Good. I just came by with Nana. Hey man, great speech," I laughed, patting Hector on the back.

Hector chuckled before asking, "Are you staying for a while?"

"Well, I might have to. It seems I have found my mate here tonight," I said with a slight hint of happiness and sadness lingering in my voice.

"You seem troubled. Is everything alright?" Daunte inquired.

Running my hand through my hair and taking a deep breath, I said, "To be honest, no. Being the Alpha of the Mystic River pack is not something to take lightly. Some she-wolves want to live this life because of its benefits. Others don't want it at all and run from it. I am unsure if she wishes to be mated to me."

"Why do you say that?" Hector asked cocking a brow at me.

"Bro, my mate is an omega," I replied.

Silence fell over us for a moment. "Luke, you are a good man. You will find a way to make it work. If you need anything, you need only ask," Daunte said, extending his hand to me.

"Thanks, bro," I said, taking his hand.

Just then, Alessia walked towards us, followed by Maliyla, Katia, Sara, Dominic, Jonathan, and Daunte's parents. After exchanging a few short goodbyes, we watched Daunte and Alessia ride off on their honeymoon.

"Come on, let's grab a drink," Hector said, patting me on the shoulder. All of a sudden, I felt as if the sudden pain in my chest was tearing my heart apart. A howl escaped my lips as I collapsed to the ground in a heap. In the depths of my mind, I could hear Lucifer's piercing howl echoing as if he was dying.

"Luke! Luke!" Hector called my name.

There was an ebb and flow to everything when I caught sight of Jackie, and all of a sudden, everything seemed to fade away. As tears streamed down her face, she placed a hand across her heart and mouthed the words, "I am sorry!" before turning and running out of sight. At that moment, I knew what had happened.

"Luke, talk to me, man. Are you alright?" Hector asked.

"My mate," I gasped.

"What about her?" Hector asked as he gripped my hand and pulled me to my feet. "What happened?" he asked.

"She rejected the bond," I replied.

"Fuck," Hector whispered, shaking his head.

We stood silently for a moment before I looked up at the moon as if for the first time in my life. As I signed, I closed my eyes and breathed deeply before speaking the words that no Alpha had ever spoken.

"I, Luke Landri, Alpha of the Mystic River Pack, accept your rejection, Jackie D'Angelo, Omega of the Onyx Fang Pack."
