I stood there, frozen, as the reality unfolded before my eyes. The man I had loved for seven years, the man who promised me forever, was betraying me with another. I covered my mouth, my breath caught in my throat, tears blurring my vision. Was everything he had ever said to me a lie? I remembered the day he proposed, four years ago. His gaze was s... 

01~ Rejected

OLIVIA'S POV

I sat at the breakfast table, my gaze flickering between my plate and the two genders before me. He was giving her the attention she needed, and the way he kept smiling at every word she spoke to him. It was even obvious that he had forgotten I was here – watching how romantic they were playing right before me.

I felt a pang of jealousy and anger gnawing inside of me. I used to be the center of Raven's world, I used to think with him, I would be treated like a princess, but ever since Sophia entered our lives, everything had changed. I was no longer the princess in this scenario.

The princess of Raven was someone else.

Someone more beautiful and cuter than I am. A girl whom Raven loved and adored, and he was willing to do anything – whatever it took to make her happy. He was willing to bring the stars down, to kill anyone just for her sake.

It pained me the most that all these had happened just in a blink of an eye, and even till now, I can't explain how it all happened. The pain, the hurt... And the fact that she was his mate was more terrifying than watching them staring at each other with love filled in their eyes.

I clenched my fist beneath the table, fighting to keep my composure. I still don't understand why he wasn't seeing the picture clearly that her presence had only caused more harm than good. We used to be happy even though we aren't mates, we promised to let the love lead us, but now...

"Olivia, pass me the salt." He said, his voice was a bit harsh as he stared at me.

Forced to tear my gaze from the scene before me, I reached for the salt shaker. I passed the salt to him, our fingers brushed against each other momentarily before we retreated.

Raven whispered something into her ears, causing her to laugh. My jaw tightened as I fought to suppress the wave of resentment washing over me. The tension was palpable as she took a spoon of the fried rice into her mouth, grinding on it.

I held my breath, staring at her to see her reaction. She wrinkled her nose in disgust. "Eww. This tastes awful." She muttered under her breath.

Raven furrowed his brow in concern as he turned to her. "Is something wrong, my dear?" he asked, his tone laced with worry.

"Yes, Raven, everything is wrong. Did you taste this food? It tastes awful." She barked, wiping her mouth with the white table towel.

Raven tasted the rice, a deep frown played on his face. I had already started eating, and I didn't see anything wrong with the food. Or were they just trying to pull my legs?

"What's the meaning of this?" He blurted.

"That is food, Raven. That's what it means." I said less reluctantly.

"Well, your food tastes weird."

"I've been eating this for a couple of minutes now and I don't find anything wrong with it. But if it does taste awkward to you guys, then you should ask her to make a better one for you."

"You dare not talk to my mate like that!" He growled.

"Oh please, Raven. Like you said, she is your mate. If what I cooked isn't delicious, then just do it yourself. And about her, why should I care if she doesn't like the food or not." I shrugged my shoulders, taking another mouthful of the rice into my mouth.

Lately, he's been making me look more like a maid than his fiancée. While I worked my ass up and down, all she does is sleep, eat, complain about almost everything.

"Raven, are you going to leave her after she had insulted me?" Sophia said, mellowing her voice so that Raven would feel pitiful for her.

"Olivia, you have to make it up to her. You must cook something else, this time I want it sweeter than this trash."

"Trash?" I scoffed. "I'm not walking into that kitchen anymore. You can't keep making me look like a fool all because of her!"

Sophia was looking at Raven, and the more he kept looking at her, the more he reacted to me. I was already tired of the whole drama, and I wasn't even ready to stoop too low for her. Angrily, I stood up to walk away.

Sophia stood up to block me, but ended up hitting me. She yelled, pretending to be hurt. I looked at her in surprise, I didn't do anything to her but she had intentionally fallen to the ground to get Raven's attention.

"You should learn how to watch where you are going." I told her.

Raven stood up. He didn't say anything for a while, and then, with furrowed brows, he walked closer to me. "You?" He pointed. His voice was almost indistinct but enough to make my heart skip a beat. "Do you really have to be so annoying? Can't you for once be responsible?"

"I didn't do anything to her." I defended myself. "You should ask her, she purposely fell on her own."

"You saw her, Raven, you saw what she did to me." Sophia said, pretending to be in pain. "Do something!"

"So you're gonna listen to her –" Before I could say the next word, I felt his hand make a rough contact on my face. It shocked me to the core that Raven dared to touch me for the first time all because of her?

I was hurt, especially at the way he looked at me. "I cannot have you as my mate," He muttered. A stabbing pain shot through me as those words escaped his lips. I looked at him with tears streaming down my face.

"Why, Raven?" I asked, my voice breaking. "What's so special about her that you will do anything for her? What's so special about her that you easily believe everything she says?"

"Everything, Olivia. Everything is special about her."

Was I too ugly or undesirable for him to show such a reaction to me?

"Isn't it obvious? I don't want you. I don't need you in my life, Olivia! I need a strong Luna by my side, and Sophia is an obvious choice. I can't live with a weak, regular-looking she-wolf like you, don't you understand? Meeting you was a mistake."

I wanted to step away and leave but I couldn't, my feet were paralyzed and I couldn't move. I wanted to look away while they walked out of the dining room, but I couldn't help but watch with teary eyes.

It was obviously clear that he doesn't want me anymore. Worst of all, he had chosen her over me.
