Chosen just to be Rejected (by Jennifer Francis) novel Chapter 8

8 1508Words Belladonna She stood once more and looked at all of her clothes, in that walk-in, and her one suitcase.

Shed never needed anymore suitcases, hadnt ever set foot outside this pack.

That one suitcase she knew wasnt going to fit everything in there; as she now realised that she was entitled to take it all with her.

Everything in that walk-in, regardless of if shed bought it or Parker had sent it up to her, she wouldnt however, there were many things in there that still had tags on them, so she didnt consider them as hers because shed never worn them.

She also didnt really want to take them, she had gained her freedom finally, and standing here she knew that she didnt want to be walking about in clothes that Parker had wanted her to wear.

That would just remind her of being here all the time, they would have memories attached to them.

Some of those dresses shed worn for the packs Mating Balls when shed stood or sat next to Parker danced a single dance with him, as was the packs tradition at the opening of the mating ball; was there to watch over them with him, as was the Lunas duty.

Though she had to admit some of them were more than nice, beautiful and elegant, she could see hed not really cared about the price of some of those dresses; they were very expensive.

She knew so were the suits and blouses hed bought for her to wear; money didnt really mean anything to him, she didnt think.

His pack was large and wealthy.

She mind-linked to her personal Omega, Merideth.

To please bring her some packing boxes and packing tape.

Merideth had responded with a Yes Luna, but had sounded a bit confused about it at the same time.

Bella had nearly stated Im not the Luna anymore.

But she guessed technically she was, even though rejected, until that separation agreement was signed, and she was actually gone from the pack.

But Merideth had also cut that link pretty quickly, and shed not had time to get it out either.

Likely attending duties elsewhere.

She wasnt one to be fussed on if someone of lesser rank cut a mind-link, though she did understand many ranked members found it to be disrespectful.

She herself in her home-pack had been considered only that of Omega Rank; by her own family.

Bar her grandmother.

If anyone had linked to her back then, she wasnt allowed to be the first to sever it, had to wait until they did, or could see herself bullied by them the next time they saw her.

She didnt really get mad about things like that, saw no point in it.

When Merideth walked into the suite she called out and Bella called her to the bedroom.

She was carrying four collapsed boxes and a taping gun.

Stated You didnt say… her words trailed off and Merideth stopped walking and stared at Bella as she was placing neatly folded clothes into her suitcase on the bed.

How many… Luna?… her eyes moved from what Bella was doing to Bellas neck, and she took a deep breath in, and the boxes fell from her hands as she realised that her Luna no longer scented of her Alpha, nor bore his Mark; that shed smelled differently.

Bella, what happened? she questioned right away, walking over to her and putting a hand on her arm.

Im certain Parker will tell you all tomorrow.

Best you hear it from your Alpha.

She smiled gently at Merideth.

Everything is as it should be, now.

Your leaving then? Merideth asked.

She was not so dumb, seeing Bella no longer bore her Alphas mark, could only mean that he had finally rejected her.

This whole pack knew she was a Chosen Mate, and not his Goddess-Gifted, that had been voiced in his announcement of her being his Luna, his Chosen Luna.

So, they all knew that he could reject her anytime he liked.

It was common knowledge, not a secret.

Yes, by this time tomorrow, I have 24 hours to leave the pack.

she answered her.

Ill help you pack Bella.

Merideth huffed, she didnt look or sound happy about it at all, but what could she do? Go downstairs and demand an explanation from her Alpha.

Her arms were full of the clothes she was to take to the donation bin.

Though she heard her mutter something about Alpha Parker wouldnt like seeing others in the clothes hed provided for her, regardless of how old they were, or if shed never gotten around to wearing them, as shed walked down the Alphas hallway towards the omega stairwell.

Bella shook her head.

Parker wouldnt even notice, he very rarely even looked at her at all, only when in her bed, and there were no clothes on her when that happened.

Just her necklace, it was the only jewellery she owned.

It had been her mothers.

It was a fine gold chain, with a single star above a crescent moon, with a galaxy pendant that rotated on a spinner.

She often turned it when thinking about things.

Freyas eyes matched that galaxy pendant, were the deepest darkest blue and had bright sparkles like the stars were in them.

Her mothers wolf had been the same, apparently.

Her grandmother had told her not to ever shift and let others see Freya.

It wasnt a good idea.

Shed not really understood that but had done as she was told, her eyes were not those of a wolfs eyes that was a given.

There was something very different about Freya but even her wolf was tight-lipped on it.

Shed never even shifted for her father; she had told him she had a wolf, but it couldnt emerge was stuck inside of her.

Hed just stared at her and didnt believe her.

So, had Alpha Ordered her to shift, rolling all he had at her, and she still hadnt been able to, hed nodded and dismissed her, never brought it up again.

She left the Luna Suite and headed downstairs, she could see Kane waiting for her in the Foyer, she was carrying her mating alliance he would need to mark it as void when all this was done.

Though she was certain he knew what was in it.

all copies of it would be pulled from the pack files and voided by him by the end of the day.
