The Lycan’s Rejected Mate
Chapter 222

Caliana's

POV

"And the pack, you're Alpha now," Levy said, worried. I thought about it already, and for now, the pack with all his connections, and I wouldn't take it if he offered to after what happened.

ady. The fields are doing well and by the time it's harvesting time, I'll be back so that we know which companies to use since obviously, Edward won't aid us

"We have enough money and food for everyone to survive. You're the beta, you can help me run it and we'll talk every day," I told him, he frowned and I took his hand, "I need to heal for myself and my baby," Levy nodded in understanding.

"Where will you go?" Emilia asked, her eyes filled with tears.

"Anywhere... I need this,"

"Come to my pack, it's a different change of scenario and you'll love it," Suddenly said Alpha Blanco. I screamed danger, hot!

"Yes," Tristin added. I looked at him and was ready to protest but Levy spoke.

"We'll feel better knowing that you are close to Tristin,"

My gaze went to Tristin,

"You can stay with me," He suggested, no, I wanted to be alone.

I was in my room back at home with my phone in my hands, trying to dial Edward's number but it was The door opened and I was surprised to see Alpha Blanco walk in. He smiled at me and I returned it. "Hi," I greeted, he stood against the wall, looking at the small bag I just finished packing.

"You seem worried, is everything alright?" He asked gently.

"All is well, I was just trying to..." I trailed, not knowing what to say

"Trying to contact your mate?" He finished for me and I nodded.

"I think everything will be alright if I saw him," I said.

forgot he was in the room with us. He was wearing a tight black shirt that exposed his muscled tattooed arms. He was refined and everything about him

ng through. I was still blocked.

I tried Garret's number and Marcos', but it wasn't going through. Unfortunately, I didn't have Marcus' number and didn't think to get Jamal's. Are they purposefully avoiding me? Did Edward order them to? I felt sadness in my heart. "How's your chest?"

"I can handle it," I said. There was a pain in my chest but it wasn't as agonizing as it was earlier and I was thankful. I didn't know what effect the pain would have on the baby. My hands instinctively touch my belly and a small smile makes its way to my lips. "You don't have to, little Caliana," Alpha Blanco said. I scoffed.

"I'm not weak,"

"I know that, but you don't need to have it all together at this time, and you are allowed to cry without feeling guilty," His voice was calm and velvety.

"Alpha Blanco, please leave me alone for now... I need to finish packing if I'm to go to your pack," I didn't want to sound rude but with him there, I felt so vulnerable and emotional.

"It's okay to hurt, we are human too," He said kindly. His gaze held me still where I stood and I felt my lips quiver. There was a pain in my heart and tears burned in my eyes. I tried not to break down and cry right now but it proved to be difficult for me. I deeply inhaled and exhaled, pacing around the room.

Warm hands wrapped around me. Alpha Blanco is cooing to me softly. A sob finally escaped my lips, I didn't want to cry but my heart was thumping as I thought of my mate and my head pulsated painfully.

"I want my mate, please, please, please," I begged. I was sobbing shamelessly at this time and when I sat on the floor, Alpha Blanco sat with me in his arms.

"Please, bring me, Edward, I love him so much," I was hysterical now and hyperventilating. Blanco's POV

I was fuming with anger, anger toward the mate that betrayed her. Caliana didn't deserve this at all, no woman did and the fucker better pray to his gods that we shouldn't meet because I'll have his head. Caliana was someone I was fond of even though I had never seen her before, Tristin always told stories about her and I felt like I knew her before meeting her. Crazy.

I held her close to my chest as she bawled. She was angry and sad all at once. Caliana was crying out for her mate, telling me to bring him to her, that she needed him to live. The woman was in despair and it only made me hold her closer to me. I wanted to take away her pain but I didn't know how, I couldn't offer her any consolation from the pain but something that resembled it right now.

Little Caliana cried herself to sleep in my arms. Tristin entered the room and was surprised to replace us on the floor, I carried her to bed. Her cheeks were tearily stained and I wiped them softly. "What happened here?"

"She wanted her mate," I answered Tristin, he frowned and stroked her hair.

"Little Caliana is heartbroken, I wish you met her before this," He said, and I took her soft hand in mine. Tristin growled and I jested,

"Don't tell me you love her that way?"

"What, no. She's like my baby sister and we are distant relatives," He said.

My gaze swayed to Little Caliana again. She was indeed exquisite, Tristin didn't do any justice to describing her fragile beauty. She had soft features, and lustrous hair that matched her captivating chocolate eyes and her little body was f*****g sexy, damn. She was a gem, a f*****g treasure. Who would ever want to hurt this magnificence?

The next day, Caliana got everything in order with her pack as we prepared to leave. She will be far from her a*****e mate. I visited the storage house where I was keeping the man who hit Caliana, the f*****g bastard was shaking and dripping in blood, I could barely recognize him after the damage I did to his body.

"Sir... sir, please let me go," His voice quivered. "I told you everything, it was Candace who wanted her dead, I was only following orders,"

"Did you know she was pregnant when you attempted to kill her?" I asked. He didn't answer. He f*****g did and still followed through with those orders.

I hit him a few times in anger, I was taking all the anger on him. He was pleading and begging me to release him but I broke his neck in one movement.

"Barbaric," I heard Tristin say, " You could have just shot him to avoid a mess, you know my OCD,"

"f**k your OCD," I retorted but didn't turn around to face him, I was glaring at the dead body on my feet.

"Caliana would hate to learn that anyone killed someone for her,"

"I don't care, this man is a piece of garbage," I turned to face my best friend. He had a bottle of liquor in his hand and was drinking directly from the bottle. He tossed it to me and I drank it as well. We sat outside the garage for a long time until we finished the drink, Tristin was worried about Caliana.

"She'll be fine,"

"I don't know, bro, I've never seen her like this,"

"She's hurting and it's alright. Her f*****g mate is f*****g a w***e and she feels it each time," I spat with venom on my tongue.

"I don't want her to go into a state of depression like she did when her father died," He said.

"This time, it's different,"

"How so?"

"She's pregnant, she has a baby to live for," I told him, and he nodded. I dragged Jon's body out of the old garage and set it ablaze, we watched it burn until Tristin received a message. "Caliana is ready to go," He informed me and a smile spread across my lips.
