The Silent Alpha

Chapter 2:  Rejection 

***Natalia***

 Tucking away my emotions, I stand on my feet and hand my mate the document claiming I am infertile.

"Just read it," I whisper, feigning hurt.

He furrows his brows in concern and stares back at me with big blue eyes.

"What is this, Nat?"

I want to vomit in his face for calling me that but I swallow the bile instead.

"It's a fertility test.Lila checked my ovarian function and reserve a few days ago,"

I whisper, refusing to meet his eye.He studies the pages, his face growing grimmer by the second.

"y-you're infertile?"

he asks, flipping through the pages once more for confirmation.

Before I can respond, a loud growl ripples through his chest and I back away immediately, nearly tripping over my feet as I do.

His breath is ragged and his eyes turn green with fury.

"You're infertile?!"

This is exactly the reaction I wanted from him but it frightens me no less that his wolf is coming out.I knew Jack, his wolf, would never hurt me.

But then again, I had "Y-yes, "I stutter, my body growing stiff with fear as I stare at his wolf's green eyes.”

Jack was well known for having a temper almost beyond control and our mate bond was the only thing that calmed him down.

As he towers over me with a menacing growl ripping through his chest, however, I wonder if it would be enough to keep me safe now.

His eyes go to my belly and I instinctively place a hand on it to protect my baby.

A terrible thought enters my mind.

Could he sense the life growing within me? I back away slowly and yelp when I bump into a wall directly behind me, my heart beating a mile a minute.

"J-jack," I squeak, closing my eyes tightly, too afraid to look at him.

"I-’m so sorry," I whimper, now realizing this was a bad idea.

"You're sorry?"

He laughs, the sound of his fist creating a hole in the wall next to my face making me burst into tears.

"You’re f*****g sorry? Sorry doesn’t put a pup in your belly, Nat!" He snarls.

"What the hell am I supposed to do now, huh?" He asks, gripping my chin between his fingers with such force, I know I'll have a bruise in the morning.

"I need an heir.That was your only task as my Luna.Your only use to me!"

My heart shatters into a million pieces.

Was that all I ever was to him? A breeding w***e? What about all hallway? Our nights of passion so hot, I thought I would burn beneath him? Was none of it real? I open my mouth to answer but a slap to the face stuns me into silence and I crash onto the floor.

Cradling my stomach, I pray to whatever goddess exists that my baby is okay.

Jack had never hit me before, Ever.

Neither had Christian and as I stare at the man I once called my husband, I feel a bitterness grow within me.

I feign hurt as I look up at him, cupping my burning cheek but inside I’m fuming with anger.I would remember this…and I would never forgive him for it.

His blue eyes return and Christian storms over to the closet, grabbing a suitcase and throwing my clothes inside.

"We’re done, Natalia," he growls as he packs my things.

"I want you out of here within the next hour.I don’t care where you go or what you do.Just get out of my house!" Relief fills my heart.

I was being set free and soon my baby and I would be on the other side of the country where we would be living out our lives away from him.

His eyes fog over as he stuffs my clothes into the bag and tosses it to me.

He must be mind linking the elders.

"The elders will be here soon to complete the rejection ceremony," he says as he walks towards the door.
