Rejected, My Jaded Love
Episode 46

The car ride home totally sucked. How did I not know that Ashley was a straight-up lying b***h? I think back to last month when Brax and Mason both tried to tell me and I wouldn’t listen, even worse spoke badly about Jade without even knowing her. I am glad they took up for her and defended her. I am glad she has them as friends.

Wait, I remember Mason saying that he would ask her out if he could and that he was just waiting to see if maybe he could be her second chance mate. I happen to know for a FACT that he isn’t, but he does have strong feelings for her. I am going to have to talk to him soon to let him know that I am her second chance mate and that I DO want her. Despite what I said last month to him and Brax.

I attempted a mind link with my mom and she is very short with me and drops the link. Crap, she is pissed, and she isn’t even going to give me a chance to explain. I am going to have to try dad.

I mind-linked dad and he is short with me too, but not as mad as mom is.

“Dad, I am coming home tonight,” I tell him.

“What, why? what happened?” dad asks.

“I didn’t want to tell you through the link, but I am bringing Ashley back home. I told her we are done for good. She is really pissed off, but dad, I found my mate today, and you know her. It is Jade.” I tell him.

I can hear the smile in his voice when he responds, “Our Jade? That came from Howling Wolf?”.

“Yes, I saw her here at Lake Havasu today, and she saw me, and even though we were not on the same boat, we both knew it. But she saw me with Ashley. Ashley saw me looking at Jade and she took that opportunity while I was looking at Jade to k**s me, and I feel terrible. I have caused her pain, and it is killing me. I can’t even think about other’s girls now. Nothing matters to me except making Jade happy and that she loves and is proud of me. I want to be better for her. She makes me happy, and I have never even spoken to her. I know I have a long road ahead, she is furious with me, but I am so glad I found my mate.” I tell him.

“I tried to tell mom, but she is mad at me, so could you tell her? I really want to talk to you both once I drop Ashley off. I am going to need Dixon and Bree to keep giving protection to Jade at school, as I know Ashley is going to make more trouble for Jade when she finds out that Jade is my mate. I don’t want to worry about her while I am away at Alpha Training. I will find Bree and Dixon tomorrow when I get back to Lake Havasu and speak with them, and Jade to if she will talk to me, and then the rest of the group. I hope I can get them to forgive me. They were right, I caused the problem for Jade, because I was stupid, and I will tell them that I was wrong.” I tell dad.

“Son I cannot tell you how happy I am to hear this we were worried about you and all the bad choices you were making and frankly I didn’t think that that you were going to be able to redeem yourself. I will let your mom know and we will see you tonight. This is the best news that we could have gotten. We both feel very loving and protective of that girl, and I guess we know why now, she was meant to be our daughter-in-love. Your mom is going to be over the moon about this. I actually cannot wait to tell her son. Be careful and we will see you soon.”

I look over at Ashley, but she is furiously texting away on her cell phone. I guess she didn’t believe me when I told her I was taking her home, she should have as I took the boat in as soon as the boat Jade was on left. I have a bad feeling that she knows that Jade is my mate, and Jade is about to be having more problems and issues because of me. I hope Jade will forgive me for being an i***t. I am making changes because of her, and all for the better. I will have my siblings protect her, although I know that they would do that anyway. Bree already threatened to kick Ashley’s a*s before, and Dixon got into a fistfight to protect her today. He really did mean it she is his best friend. They both probably felt the pull because she is my mate. I feel even worse now because I had implied that maybe Jade was the cause of the problem herself. I see Ashley for the liar that she is now, just from what she said before we left the hotel. She really is an opportunist and a slut, what did I ever see in her? I must be the biggest i***t I know.

I try to mindlink Mason, and then Braxton, but they are both blocking me. It is only 9 pm now, they can’t be in bed. I go to try to mindlink Dixon or Bree and they are both blocking me too. Now I am super frustrated. I need someone to tell me that Jade is ok. I need one of them to tell her I love her and want to talk to her and clear up that I am done with Ashley for good, that I only want her for the rest of my life. I go to talk to mom and dad, with mom reaching out to Bree and Bree telling her that Jade is “Ok, considering everything”. I have no idea what that means. I ask dad to link Dixon and tell him what I said. I should have mind-linked Dixon, Bree, Mason, or Braxton when they were headed into the dock that I was sorry, and for them to keep an eye on Jade for me while I took Ashley back to Stone Moon. Just to apologize to them, and to tell them I want Jade, and for them to take care of her until I can get back to Lake Havasu in the morning. I guess I will go to bed now, but I can’t sleep, I am worried about Jade, I know I hurt her, and every time I close my eyes, I see that hurt look of betrayal on her face. I would do anything to take it away from her. I will fix this. I hope mom and dad can help me smooth over the problems that I created by getting with Ashley again when I knew Jade was my Luna already. Why did I even do that? Why didn’t I grab her yesterday when my wolf Aries told me who she was and hug and k**s her, instead of almost running to the SUV and then driving down to get Ashley. What the hell was I thinking? I really am a moron. We knew who she was 5 weeks ago, knew it, I scented her, and still, I resisted. I argued with my best friends Mason and Braxton over her, with my own brother and sister over her, and I never got it. They all loved and wanted to protect her, and they needed to protect her from me too. I accused Jade of being the problem and a liar. I accused her of bewitching my best friends. And Goddess, I even said maybe I should take her out and see what all the excitement was about. Bree is right, I AM an a*****e.

I laid in bed for 2 hours before I gave up and went down to the Gamma floor and used my pass-card to enter her room again. Her scent surrounds me and comforts me. I am able to finally relax when I lay down in her bed. I let her scent fill my lungs and I am able to finally fall asleep. I sleep well and my cell phone alarm sounds at 5 am waking me up so I can make it back to the Lake by 9. I dress quickly back in my room, and I am on the road 15 minutes later.

I won’t try to mindlink anyone as I know that they are all sleeping still this early, but when I get closer, I will try Braxton or Mason again. I want to try to find out where they are staying, or meet them for breakfast, her scent is not as strong now that I am dressed, and I need to breathe her in as soon as I can. I realize that I need her for everything. I want her scent on me every day, to calm me, and to keep me focused. She is the best thing that has ever happened to me, and I crapped on her. But I will fix it, Ashley is no more, I am done with all other women. It is only Jade for me from now on. I just hope that someone is willing to answer their mindlink when I get closer. I cannot believe how desperate I am to get to see her, get a hug from her, and ask who in the hell was kissing the top of her head? I am going to tell her I have changed, that I love her, that I will wait as long as it takes for her to know that she is it for me. I hope she gives me the chance to show her how much she means to me. She has me wrapped around her little finger already, and she hasn’t even spoken a word to me.
