FREDA WHITLOCK

“I have nothing to say to you, Kaiden.” I said for what seemed to be the thousandth time. A sigh of frustration left my lips. Ast much as I hated him, the thought of us being in the same room for however long was making my thoughts run wild.

And not in a good way.

“I’m sorry, Freda.” He said, walking to where I was sitting on the couch and reaching for my hand. “I don’t know how else to say it. I don’t know how to make it up to you…” He said in a tone that almost sounded broken. I frowned at him and the guts he had to sound broken.

How dare he?

I was the one who had been hurt. I was the one who had been manipulated and used. That was not really his fault, but he had chosen to use me and that had been so unfair.

“I don’t know what you want to hear from me, Kaiden,” I muttered.

He sighed and knelt in front of me suddenly. I was breathless all of a sudden. “Go away,” I whispered and he shook his head.

I shut my eyes tight. I was not going to let him get to me so easily. Not after what my sister had said they did the other day. I thought of all the anger, of all the hatred I held for him, of all the pain he had caused me, of the fact that it was his fault

“Get away from me,” I said through gritted teeth and shoved him away. He stumbled and I almost regretted what I had done. Tears filled my eyes at the mad rush of emotions that were driving me nuts just because he was here.

I stood up and walked away from him. I needed to think straight and-I could not do it when he was here. “I need to leave,” I said, turning away from him.

“Please, Freda, tell me what you’re thinking,” he pleaded and I turned to him. I was filled with anger once again and my emotions were giving me whiplash at this point. It was

painful.

“What I’m thinking? What I’m thinking is how much I hate you. You are the worst thing that ever happened to me,” I spat the cruel worlds as they came into my mind and he frowned a little bit. But I was far from done. He wanted to hear my mind? He was going to get every single piece.

“You hurt me. Multiple times. And it’s unforgivable. You took everything from me. You shattered me.

You have taken my sister from me. You took everything!” I yelled at him and the tears were freely flowing down my cheeks at this point.

I buried my face in my hands and my wolf whimpered at the agony that was coursing through both of our beings. For the first time in ages, my wolf gave me a helping hand. She tried to comfort me.

But this was beyond her. This was beyond both of our strengths combined.

I didn’t know Kaiden was coming towards me until I could feel

his presence as he stood in front of me. He held both of my hand and took them off my face. tried to resist his touch but I did not have the strength to.

I wanted to walk away but I couldn’t. Especially not when he wrapped his arms around me. I buried my face in his chest. because despite the infinite hatred I had for him, he was providing me comfort.

He was my mate. His wolf was soothing mine and that was providing me relief from the pain, but not the hatred.

“I’m sorry,” he whispered as I sobbed. “I’m a horrible person I know. I destroyed everything for you, I know. You hate me, I know. I’m truly sorry. I don’t know how to make you forgive me. I’m desperate to find a way, but I have not been able to,” he whispered and pressed his face against my hair.

I pulled back from him. “I don’t believe you. And that’s your fault. I don’t want anything to do with you. You’re with my sister and I rejected you as my mate. My forgiveness is not something you will ever get, and it’s not something you need.” I said the words with coldness. He seemed hurt but I didn’t care.

“The rejection was invalid,” he said in a low voice.

“What?” I asked, just to be sure I heard him right. There was no way he was saying the truth.

I backed away from him, wiping my eyes and taking deep breaths to calm my nerves that were on edge.

He was driving me nuts.

“I didn’t accept the rejection before you left,” he said and I shook my head with disbelief. There was no way…

“It… It doesn’t matter if you did or not. I rejected you and that’s all that matters,” I said shaking my head and beginning to pace.

My wolf was starting to prance around in my head with excitement, but I was not going to allow that.

I did not want anything to do with Kaiden. Absolutely nothing.

“We are still mates, Freda,” he said softly and I wanted to set myself on fire at those words.

“Kaiden, you don’t seem to understand. I will reject you over and over if I have to. You lost your chance to be friends with me or be my mate when you left my room that day.” I spat at him. “You are with my sister now. Doing this,” I gestured between us, “trying to get me to be with you makes you a horrible, disgusting person to both her and me.” I said and grabbed the key that was sitting on the floor.

I stormed towards the door while I left him stunned. I unlocked it, hurried to my car and sped off,
