The Lycan's Revengeful Rejected Mate (Katherine)

KATHERINE 

I suddenly had the desperate urge to live. I didn’t want to die so I could do to Jane exactly what she had done to me. Deep down I told myself that when that time came, I would never hesitate to kill her baby like she didn’t hesitate to kill mine, 

“As long as I’m alive Jane, you’ll never get to hold your baby like I didn’t, I promise you that, I told her, but she slapped me again. 

“What can do you wench? You’ll be dead soon. Will you kill my baby in your grave? Think about it, Katherine, why do you think it had to be Zane? I could have just gone for any other wolf, but why him? 

I desperately wanted to know too because I had asked myself this question multiple times after that night. “Why?” 

“Because he was yours first. Haven’t you realized how much I envy you, Katherine? Even the little good things you had, I always wanted them. I envy you because you have even the slightest good things in the world, but with Zane, that had to be the best thing that happened to you, and I couldn’t let you have that happiness when it wasn’t mine first.” 

My eyes stung with tears, 

“There were so many wolves out there, Jane. Why couldn’t you pick anyone? He was never your mate from the start, he was mine!” 

“And that was why it had to be Zane because he was yours. To tell you the truth, I never really loved him until after I stole him from you. Everything was worth it, Katherine,” she held my chin and forced me to raise my head at her, 

“I don’t ever regret it. Zane has been the best thing that ever happened to me since I was born. He treats me way better than he treats you, and more importantly, he loves me. You know the best part? We’re going to have a baby together.” 

“The Alpha’s here. One of the rogues came to inform Jane and she immediately let go of me. “Let’s see who Zane is going to pick Katherine. Me and the baby or you. I can’t wait to watch him pierce a dagger into your heart. She uttered and began to walk away, heading back to the corner where she had stepped out for the first time while I weakly shut my eyes, letting my tears fall freely from my eyes. 

I wouldn’t utter a word because I too wanted to sit back and watch everything unfold. The Zane I had seen back there, would he still be willing to kill me or it was all just pretense? 

I could hear Zane’s footsteps, and his familiar scent once again filled my nostrils. The scent my wolf and I always waited every day for, or always felt overjoyed whenever we perceived. The scent that once made my heart filled with joy, made me believe the moon goddess was on my 

side. 

But not anymore. 

I perceived it and felt no excitement. Felt nothing of what I always felt in the past, 

“Kath!” My eyes w 

eyes were still weakly shut because I was weak when I heard my name from Zane. Jane’s voice came couldn’t open my eyes 

next, but I still 

I could hear their conversation and I could feel Zane’s resistance to want to kill me like Jane was begging. I still had no idea why. But I care less. Even if he found out the truth, I wouldn’t care because it doesn’t change anything. He should have believed me in the beginning. 

Did Zane just raise his voice at her? I questioned myself and slowly opened my eyes. Jane had her hands clutched as she questioned him about their initial plan, and it made me scoff in silence. What was I even thinking right from the beginning? It was his plan. 

Being a manipulative bitch, I knew what Jane was going to say next. 

“Do you even still love me?” She uttered, and I rolled my eyes at her. 

I had no idea why, but Zane’s response made me clutch my fist in anger. “Yes, Jane, I do. After everything you’ve done for me, I love you.” 

How could he be so stupid not to even see that she was manipulating him when it was so clear? Then what I had expected 

happened next, 

“We’re having a baby, Jane uttered, and I cocked my head towards him to see the expression on his face. He had a look of shock, but his happiness was hidden behind it. I didn’t care, but was only hurt because months ago, this was me informing Zane that I was pregnant, and I never gave him a choice to choose between his father or me and our children. 

At this moment, I wasn’t expecting anything from Zane because I knew that whatever he had done for me back there was simply out of nothing else but pity. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

PRESENT____ 

“No one’s laying a finger on my mate. 

Leo’s voice gave me that glimmer of hope that I desperately wanted, and I smiled even in my pain. Even though I had chosen to run away, I was so thankful that he came looking for me. It showed me that someone in the world cared about me 

I fluttered my brows to stare at him, and I could see that his body was covered in blood, only that this time, I wasn’t afraid of him like last time. Those fucking rogues deserved whatever they got from him and even more of it. 

Leo began to take steps towards me, and when he got to Zane, he halted. “This would be a last warning, Zane. Ever come an inch close to my mate, then it’ll be the last time you’ll be seeing your pack and your dear Luna.” 

I could see the shocked and fearful expression on Jane’s face as Leo threatened them, and I almost laughed out loud. Now she wasn’t so strong and confident was she? He cocked his head towards Jane, and then surprisingly sped away with her to another corner before Zane could retaliate. 

“P..please don’t hurt me, Jane begged out loud with a shaky voice, 

“Alpha Leo, please don’t do this. As you can see, we didn’t hurt Katherine. She’s fine. Zane cut in, and damn, I almost wished I could stand on my feet and slap the living hell out of him 

“Does it look like a finger wasn’t laid on her?” He fired at Zane, then brought his gaze hark 10 Jane, “If you ever lay a finger on Katherine, you would never live to see another day. All the times you hurt her because of your greed, I wasn’t there to help her. but now I am, and you’ll be taking your last breath the day you lay a finger on her again” We all watched Leo lean closer to Jane, and whisper some words into her ear, 

“I can hear your thoughts, I know every damn thing running through your mind. Take this as a kindness I never show to anyone.” He uttered and let go of her. Jane fell to the ground while Zane rushed towards her immediately, but I took my gaze away from them and averted it to Leo. 

I let out a smile as Leo began walking towards me, and for the first time in my life, I couldn’t be happier that 1 had much more powerful fully on my side this time. 

He went to one knee, and used his left hand to cup my face,. 

“Are you alright?” He asked softly with worry so evident in his eyes, 

“I’m sorry. I never should have left in the first place 

someone 

“It’s fine, Katherine. It’s my fault because I didn’t let you know the truth when I found out first. I should have let you know your kids were gone, but I didn’t want you to get hurt.” 

Tears welled up in my eyes as I heard this, 

“Blake found out where they died. Would you like to go pay your last visit to them? It’s not your Katherine, but it’s because of them you’ll be strong to prove your innocence. 

fault you 

couldn’t save them, 

I let go of the tears that welled up in my eyes and nodded my head. In a second, Leo tore the rope to set me free and gently carried me in his arms while I laid my head on his chest and shut my eyes. 

“Why didn’t you kill her?” I questioned him with my eyes shut, and his response made me smile, 

“Because you need her alive when you prove your innocence. I didn’t hurt her because I wanted to give you the privilege to punish her yourself.”
