Chasing And Claiming My Rejected Omega Mate:Alpha's Severe Regret [BL]

Rory's pov

When I stepped out of the hotel room the next morning, I felt numb from top to bottom. My head felt like it was on fire from how hard it was pounding, and my heart felt like it was breaking into a thousand pieces.

It was still hard to wrap my head around what had happened last night.

I had been drugged.

There were no two ways about it. The truth was starkly clear at this point. It was hard to believe that the person I trusted the most in my entire life is behind it.

I trusted Tracy with my entire life. I trusted her so damn much, so it was hard to believe that she'd drug me, keep me in a hotel room, and then send men to come get rid of me. What for?

Or was this just some kind of prank?

Although the more I replayed the entire overheard conversation from last night between the two alphas who had been sent to get rid of me, the more I got more convinced that it wasn't a prank but was actually very real.

For all what I even overheard; one of them was her brother. I didn't even know she had any signings, I always thought she was an only child.

None of these made any sense to me, which is exactly why I'm currently heading over to Tracy's place right now, because I needed some answers and I'm gonna get them this morning.

On arriving at Tracy's house, I knocked on the door and waited, massaging my head and trying to will it from pounding sharply. When the door finally swung open, her bright eyes dimmed as soon as she settled them on my face.

"Oh." She mumbled, sounding disappointed and not bothering to hide it. I swallowed the lump in my throat as I spoke.

"Can I come in?"

She folded her hands and jutted her chin. "No, you can't come in." She responded sharply, in a tone she has never used on me in the years we've been friends, causing me to flinch.

I cleared my throat and tried not to let her response get to me too much, and then I reminded myself the exact reason why I'm here.

"That's okay, I just came here to see if all what I heard last night was true, and so far, it's starting to look like it is." As I spoke, she rolled her eyes and let out a scornful laugh.

"If you're so certain of the truth, why the hell are you still here?"

I sucked in a deep breath and exhaled slowly. "Because... I don't want it to be true, I want it to be a lie." I whispered, flinching once again when she let out another scornful laugh. She folded her hands once again and gave me a distasteful look, one that made her completely unrecognizable to me.

"Dear perfect Rory, all your haunches are nothing but the truth. If you're still in doubt, then let me spell it out for you. Yes, I did try to get rid of you. I paid men to get rid of your annoying ass. It's a shame that they chickened out, if they hadn't, you wouldn't be here distributing my peaceful day right now."

Immense cold suddenly submerged me as she spoke. It was hard to digest what she was saying, because my mind refused to accept the fact that she has been a bad person this entire time.

Tracy took care of me even more than my elder sister, because my elder sister was always busy and almost never home, so I always end up spending almost every hour of the day with Tracy, and throughout those periods, Tracy has never given me a reason to suspect that she hadn't genuinely liked me.

"But why?" I ended up whispering as I wrapped my hands around my middle.

Tracy rolled her eyes this time. "Because I've always hated you, okay? I cannot explain how the hate began to brew, but I know it increased after you presented as an omega and managed to attract every potential alpha mate out there. No one looked in my direction after you presented! You attracted them all, but what did you do? Your prudish self always acts too good and too perfect for them. What's even so special about you? Absolutely nothing!"

I flinched and swallowed down the pathetic sob building in my throat as I struggled to speak. "But you've always said I was perfect. You tell me that everyday–"

"Well, I lied, okay?! I lied! There's nothing perfect about you! You're not perfect. You're ugly, and unattractive, and definitely not special! It's why every alpha always wants to get into your pants and nothing more because that's all you'd ever desired for! You're just a body for alphas to get off with, that's all."

At this point, the tears were streaming down my face as I couldn't hold it back any longer. My heart was breaking with every word leaving her mouth. Because I trusted her so much, she knew all of my insecurities, and she was currently using them all against me. It made my heart ache even more, because I genuinely loved and trusted Tracy. She's the only genuine friend I've ever had, but apparently, she has always hated me.

I ended up moping my face dry and puffing out a slow breath. "Well, it was nice being friends with you. Thank you for being with me throughout my lonely years." I sniffed out and she scoffed.

"Well to me, it wasn't nice being friends with you. It was a complete horror and I had wanted to get rid of you for a long while. I'm so happy I don't have to keep pretending to like your disgusting, ugly ass." 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

This time, I didn't bother to respond. Instead, I swallowed down the sob bubbling in my throat as I turned away from her, exiting her presence and heading for the familiar trail leading home.

The tears threatened to fall but I held it back, reassuring myself that I'd be able to let it all out as soon as I'm in the privacy of my home.
