Rejected Luna Queen

“Have you, Nesta Kistler, accepted the rejection from Leon Randev to not be his mate and future Luna?” The Elder asked, standing in front of the crowd, staring me down. My eyes quickly found Leon’s, but he was staring up at the girl he rejected me for. I shouldn’t have had my hopes up high when he growled out I was his mate in front of the entire pack at the mating ceremony. He waited until the entire attention of the pack was on us, then he laughed because I was smiling like a fool. I thought I had hit the jackpot and I wouldn’t ever be bullied again, having the future alpha as my mate. Someone untouchable.
