The man she once adored now feels more like a stranger, especially after witnessing his passionate kiss with another woman—someone named Ivy. As the days unfold, Blue juggles her heartbreak with a simmering anger, determined to confront the man who treats her less like a mate and more like an obligation.

But when Lorenzo dismisses her concerns and brings Ivy into their home, the stakes rise. Each shared laugh between them slices deeper than any knife. As Blue navigates the tangled emotions of love, loyalty, and betrayal, she grapples with a burning question: Can she stand by and let her future be dictated by a man who has so little regard for her?

With tensions mounting and secrets waiting to be uncovered, Blue must decide whether to reclaim her voice or remain shackled by the very bond she once cherished. In a world where love and power collide, will she find the strength to reject the alpha she once thought was hers?

A Rude Awakening: Rejecting My AlphaChapter 1

My mate?

I scoffed when the thought hit my head. At this point, the term was ridiculous and even I had to admit it to myself.

"What's amusing to you?" Lorenzo asked. That question brought me back to my life. I have been so engrossed in my thoughts that I didn't realize my reaction had been noticed by him.

"Nothing," I responded. But that was a lie. Looking at him standing in front of me, I didn't feel an iota of guilt for actually lying to him.

I was disgusted by the mere sight of him. There was no way I could stand the man I saw less than an hour ago in an intimate position with another woman.

Yes, I saw him locking lips with another. The fact that we were supposed to be married in less than two weeks didn't even make him respect me.

I should confront him, I know. But he was just going to deny despite the fact that I caught him red-handed.

"Did you hear what I just said?" he asked again.

"Come again," I had to say.

Immediately, a frown etched on his face. I could sense his displeasure.

"This is the problem I have with you," he started to say. "You always zone out on me whenever I'm speaking to you. How are you going to understand me?"
