My Promised Rejection (Olivia) novel Chapter 13

13 Enough

A Few Days Later

Olivia POV

1 make my way down to the large kitchen that I now know serves the meals for the entire pack. I had so many questions for Becca when I finally accepted that I’m a wolf. I figured if I had to stay here five more months l would spend as much time with Becca as I could. The minute I turn eighteen, I intend to move back to my father’s house and start my online classes.

I’ve never been so grateful for being a nerd in school. I completed all the necessary classes to graduate early. I have no intention of attending graduation since my father won’t be there to see me walk across the stage. Becca was upset when I told her, but she understood. I’m not sure if she has told Connor, but he doesn’t get a

vote in this.

I step into the kitchen and smile when I see the left–over food from this morning, including a huge selection of muffins and Danish. I grab a plate, taking a muffin, a Danish, and a handful of bacon. Since my first shift, I’ve noticed my appetite is crazy. Becca assures me that it’s normal. “Wolves eat a lot, which comes in handy since I love junk food,” she said. I take my plate intending to eat outside. I refuse to go to the dining room since I’m still avoiding talking to Evelyn and Xavier.

As soon as I step outside, the sound of raised voices gets my attention. I try to ignore the group of girls that seem to be arguing, but a loud b**ch with blonde hair has my feet stopping in my tracks. “Do you really think he’ll choose a loser like you? You are a pathetic omega. You aren’t worthy of Kevin. Even if, by some miracle, the goddess made you mates, he’d reject you. You are useless and pathetic,” the mean girl says.

I look up at the sky debating whether, to get involved, but I already know there is no way I can walk away while another girl who looks very much alone is berated by Regina George and her gaggle of mean girls over there. I set my plate on a nearby picnic table and make my way over to the group. “Why are you being so mean, Collette? I’ve never done anything to you. Kevin and I are friends,” the girl says, tears streaming down

her cheeks.

“I want to make sure you know that Kevin is off limits. He is mine. He is to be the next Beta and he needs a strong mate. My father is a warrior while your father is a gardner. You are pathetic and could never be Beta Female. Stay away from him, or I’ll make your life even more of a hell than it already is,” she says. “Boy, you must be really worried that this Kevin is going to be her mate.”

All heads whip towards me. “Who the f**k are you and why are you getting involved in my business,” the b**ch asks. “Me, I’m Olivia and you made it my business by acting like a raging b**ch in front of everyone with your cronies.” “Do you know who I am” she asks. I roll my eyes and take a step towards her. “I’d say your name is Regina George, but I have a feeling that your mother didn’t know you would become such a nasty b**ch, so

no I don’t.”

Her eyes turn black, and she takes a step toward me. Before I know what’s happening, she is on her a** in front of me with Becca standing over her. “You wouldn’t be f**king with my new sister, would you Collette,” she asks. The girl keeps her head down. “I didn’t know who she was, Rebecca. She called me a b**ch. I was just defending myself,” Collette says.

“You are a b**ch Collette. Now, what I want to know is how Oli figured that out so quickly” Becca says. “She

was saying mean shat to that girl with the tears on her cheeks, I say pointing toward the girl. Rein, what was she saying. Becca aska, Ram ataye quiet, and I realize she is afraid of what happens next if she tella, I reiterate word for word what I heard Collette say. Becca growls as she reaches down and pulls Collette up by

the collar of her shirt.

I wonder what Kevin would say if he knew how you were treating the girl he is in love with,” Becca says. “Bullsh*t, she is an omega,” Collette yells. The sound of the door opening has us all turning toward the sound, A handsome guy with a good build steps outside, I turn just in time to see the blood drain from b**ch girl’s face. I know Immediately this is Kevin. I turn back in time to watch his eyes find Rain among the girls.

Anger flashes in his eyes as he makes his way toward her. “Why don’t we ask Kevin if he thinks that Rain is worthy of being his mate?” “Who the f**k said she isn’t worthy,” he growls. “That would be queen b**ch over here. She was pretty ruthless actually in telling her to stay away from you.” He offers me a smile. “You must be Oli. Connor told me you were a bad**. Now I can see why. Thank you for defending Rain,” he says before he

turns toward Collette.

Becca releases her as Kevin steps closer. “Let me make this perfectly clear to you, Collette. I don’t want you. I have never wanted you. I may not be able to say it until her birthday, but that beautiful woman standing over there is the only woman I want. You would do well to remember what happens when you disrespect a member of this pack that outranks you,” he says.

“That must suck to hear after you were just out here talking sh*t. Sucks to suck, doesn’t it, Collette.” No

sooner do the words leave my mouth does she lunge at me. Without a second thought, I land a solid punch to her jaw. I’m shocked when she flies back onto her a**. A loud growl startles me.

A man I’ve never seen before stalks towards me. “How dare you hit my daughter,” he says, his eyes almost

black. “Bart, I suggest you back up unless you want me to put you on your a**” Kevin says. “Why are you defending this girl? She isn’t even part of the pack. I want her punished for hitting my daughter,” the man says, glaring at me.

“Your daughter is the one that is going to be punished for bullying other pack members. Not only did she

bully a pack member, but she attacked a guest of the Alpha. Now what do you think the alpha is going to do

when he finds out about your daughter’s transgressions,” Kevin says.

I watch the man swallow as his eyes turn back to their sh*t brown color. This time when he looks at me, there

is fear in his eyes. “Collette, get over here and apologize to the Alpha’s guest, now.” “Daddy, she hit me.

Besides, it’s not like I was bullying an important member of the pack. Rain is just an omega. Even you think

-they are useless,” she whines. Kevin growls, stepping into the man’s space.

“Maybe it’s you the Alpha needs to teach a lesson about respect, Bart, since your daughter has clearly

learned her hateful behavior from you,” Kevin says. All the color drains from Bart’s face, and I hold back the

urge to laugh. Before Bart can say another word, Xavier’s voice breaks the silence. “What is going on here?”

“Alpha, that girl hit me,” Collette whines.

Xavier looks at me, his expression/unreadable. Evelyn is standing next to him. “Based on the fact that my son’s future Beta looks like he is ready to lose his sh*t on your father, I’m going to guess there is more to the story. I want you all in my office now,” he says before he turns to leave with Evelyn. “You heard the Alpha,

move,” Kevin says to Bart and Collette.

Becca leads me over to Rain. “Rain, this is Oli. She is my sister–in–law. Oli, this is Rain,” Becca says. “It’s so nice to meet you, Uli. Thank you for helping me. I hope you don’t get into a lot of trouble for doing it,” she

says, her voice laced with worry. I reach out taking her hand “Hey, don’t worry about that. I can’t stand girls ke Collette. She had no right to say those things to you. Besides, It looks like you’re the one Kevin Becca outs me off and I wonder why.
