Desperate to claim me, but I've moved on

I clutch my purse tightly to my chest as I stare at my phone screen, the name Vincent was boldly written as the caller ID. I can't believe he dared to call me after what he was about to do.

I would have ignored but I felt like this was something I had to do, so I bottled all my emotions and swiped left on the phone screen. "Kyla where the fuck are you!" Vincent yelled as soon as I picked up the phone.

"What do you want from me, Vincent?" I asked calmly ignoring his question.

"What are you on about?" he sounded confused "The wedding is about to start and Ava has been waiting for you, she doesn't have anyone in Virginia except you"

I still can't believe he thought I would agree to stand as Ava's family after the betrayal, after all, they had put me through, how gullible does he think I am?

"If you are still worried about the current situation of things, don't worry I will marry you after two years just as promised" he continued but I was fed up with his lies and constant bickering.

"There is no need for that Vincent, I am already married" I replied plainly.

He let out a sarcastic laugh before saying "Don't be ridiculous babe, we've been together for seven years, Plus we are mates, you have my mark on you, there is no one in the world for you than me"

It's funny how he remembered the bond we shared for seven years yet he had abandoned our vows for a mundane girl he had known for just three months.

"The moon goodness has blessed me with a second chance mate, from this moment on I REJECT YOU" Without another word I hung up the call and blocked his number.

I pulled my head backward and closed my eyes as tears threatened to spill, but I didn't want to waste my tears on a man who betrayed my trust and took me for granted.

I pulled myself together, adjusted my dress, and got into the car. "I am ready, let's go," I said to my husband sitting next to me, whom I barely knew.

THREE WEEK EARLIER***

I stood in my room, my phone still clutched in my hand as I gazed out the window. My conversation with my mother still lingered in my mind. "I don't know what you are talking about Mom"

Her confusion was palpable, even over the phone. "Kyla it's not a secret anymore, the whole of the blood moon pack knows Vincent is getting married to some human girl" she stated,

"Come home dear, let mother take your pain way, that's what we do as omegas"

I paused, collecting my thoughts before responding, "I have to go mom, I will talk to you later." I said and ended the call immediately, I was too ashamed to face my family after they warned me years back that this would happen.

But I was blinded by love, I left everything behind including my gift as an omega just because I wanted to be happy but look where it got me.

My reverie was interrupted by the sound of my door opening. Ava walked in with a bright smile plastered on her face. "Kyla, can you please come with me to pick out my wedding dress?" she asked, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

I stared at the woman my fiance was getting married to, my eyebrow raised and my tone icy. "Do you not know how to knock before entering someone else's room?"

Ava's expression faltered, and she looked at me with feigned hurt. "I was just too excited, you don't have to be rude"

So she truly was overjoyed, I laughed coldly to myself. What a fraud, feigning innocence.

Vincent appeared behind Ava, his voice low and smooth. "You're about to become the mistress of this house. You can do as you please." Ava flushed with embarrassment, but Vincent's words only served to fuel my anger.

As I watched them leave, I felt a pang of sadness. Just three months ago, I was the one planning a wedding with Vincent. We met in college, shortly after then we discovered we were mates and since then our love has been all-consuming.

But my family never accepted him, according to them he was holding me back from reaching my full potential as an omega because all the women in my family are omegas. And as the only child to the Alpha of the blood moon pack everyone excepted me to marry well, because my husband would become the next Alpha.

I defied my family and stayed in Virginia after graduation, all for him even though they had threatened to cut me off.

I used my connections to help him start up a business. Two years later, he became a multimillionaire, and he finally proposed and promised me a grand wedding. At the time, I thought we were set to grow old together.

But then Ava appeared, and I realized how foolish I had been to silently sacrifice everything.
