Rejected Mate's Redemption (Freda and James)

Mates 68

Chapter 68 FREDA WHITLOCK My eyes were fixed on Kaiden. He looked like he was in as fix, a very tight one. The regret on his face and the way he clenched his jaw told me that he did not want to do this, that he did not want to make me apologize in front of everyone. I pressed my lips together as I felt coldness, pain and anger fill my blood. I knew he was going to have to make me do it. He did not care about me enough to give up his Alpha title. He was going to have to give it up if he did not make me apologize to Safiya. He clenched his teeth together harder and an impassive, unreadable expression filled his eyes before his expression. went completely blank. “Freda Whitlock, you are to kneel and apologize to the Luna now,” he said, looking me straight in my eyes. I clenched my teeth together and blinked rapidly, hating the fact that disappointment rushed through my blood despite the fact that I had been expecting him to make me apologize. He blinked and I saw the regret flash in his eyes despite the hard front he was trying so hard to put up in front of everyone. I took a deep breath. All eyes in the room were in me now. They were looking at me expectantly, probably expecting that I would hesitate or completely refuse to do it. 13:30 Tears welled up in my eyes as I lowered myself to my knees. This was so wrong and it hurt so much. I should not have come back here. I was not supposed to have come back to the cursed, hateful place. Francisco was not supposed to see this. He was not supposed to witness us being punished for something he had not done. He was not supposed to encounter any unfairness. I had failed. I had failed woefully to protect him as his mother and it pained me soo much. I managed to blink back the tears and looked back up at Kaiden, Safiya and the members of the

council. Safiya had a big smirk. on her face and hatred sizzled through me like boiling oil. I had tried not to hate her. I had tried to keep us together, to keep away from arguments with her and she would always find the littlest means to get me in trouble. Embarrassment, anger, pain and sadness burnt mercilessly through my chest and my hatred for the world and the way it was treating me unfairly grew exponentially. “I am sorry for my son’s misconduct, Luna.” I said much to the displeasure of my wolf. She was the Luna. That did not really matter now, but it annoyed her that I, the Luna, had to apologize to someone who was not the Luna while calling her the Luna. After I said the words, wanting this to be over as quickly as possible so I could take my son and leave, I hurried to my feet with my eyes locked in Safiya’s. I hated her. The goddess knew I hated her to the very core of my soul. Not only did she hate me, she hated my son. And that was something I could never forgive. I grasped Francisco’s hand in mine and looked down at him. 280 Mouchers Tears are running down his face and it broke my heart. “It’s okay, baby,” I whispered, leaving down to kiss his cheek and wipe his eyes. “I love you. Let’s go,” I whispered again and he sniffled tearfully before nodding It broke my heart that he was involved in this and I was the reason he was in the pack in the first place. I walked towards the entrance, moving at Francisco’s pace. He was mostly recovered, but I did not want to cause him any pain in the places he was still healing. “You and your son needs to stay away from my husband. Stop coming between us,” I heard Safiya speak from behind me and I froze. I knew I should not have, but my wolf and I were filled with so much fury at the same time that we had to stop. I was angry that she had the guts to assume I was the one going after Kaiden. I wanted nothing to do with him. He was the one coming after my son and I! My wolf was angry at the fact that she was laying claims to her mate as her husband. The pressure from my wolf releasing her anger burst from me in the form of an aura and it seemed to reach

everyone in the room. I turned around to look at Safiya. The smile I had heard in her voice was no longer there but she was glaring at me. The other people in the room, including Kaiden seemed to be stunned by the anger of my wolf, Gia. I was sure that my eyes were completely golden now and the members of the werewolf council seems intimidated. I chuckled before I allowed my wolf to speak. “I hate to remind you, but you seem to have forgotten that Kaiden was mine first. I am his mate, the one chosen by the moon goddess. He has Chapin 65. 228 vouchers always been mine. He is still mine now and that is why he is coming after me,” I said through gritted teeth. Her lips pressed together tightly as anger filled her facial features. Kaiden and the members of the werewolf council seemed uncomfortable at the words I had spoken but none of them dared to mention anything about punishment, not when I was in this state. “If you can not handle this truth, Safiya, then I am not surprised. You have always been vain and foolish. But if you offend me again, you will have to face my anger.” I said in the most calmly lethal tone I had ever spoken. Embarrassment and pure fury were etched on her face but she did not say a word. Seemed like she did have a bit of sense, because if she had said. something that offended Gia, I was not going to hold her back from attacking her. I let out a small breath, picked up Francisco’s hand and headed out of the meeting room with a small smile on my face. Despite the pain and anger I was still feeling, it was good to let some of it out.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
