A Stolen Fate

I save the Alpha. He crowns my sister.

"Miles... I'm your mate," I blurt, hoping that will break through his confusion and make him see me for who I truly am.

He only stares quietly at me, but I can see the conflict and confusion in his expression. "I'm sorry, Rhea. You're beautiful, and your scent..." his words trail as he buries his nose on my neck and inhales deeply. "It's the sweetest I've ever known. But I love your sister, and I made a promise I don't intend to break. We will have to reject the mate bond."

"Why won't you believe me?" I plead, my voice raw. "I'm the girl you met that night. I am your mate!"

Miles' gaze hardens as he points toward the exit. "You need to leave, Rhea. Or I'll have security escort you out."

"You liar!" I scream as I yank Roxy's hair. "You've stolen everything from me!"
I feel Miles' hands gripping my shoulders as he yanks me off her, shoving me backward. I land hard on my butt.

"Listen to me, Rhea," he hisses, his voice filled with venom, his eyes cold. "I don't want to see you near me or Roxy again. If you do, I'll have you banished." He takes a step closer, towering above me. "I, Alpha Miles Mondragon, reject you, Rhea Chapman, as my mate. Accept it or reject it; I don't fucking care."

Have you ever watched your Knight in shining armor stolen from your very own fantasy? It could be the most heartbreaking thing.

What do you do when the man fated to love you calls you a liar? When the boy you save becomes the Alpha who destroys you?

This is my story, and how my fate was stolen.
