The Triplets' Rejected Disabled Mate Chapter 90

Colt's POV

"Wait what?" I gasped, surprised. "No!"

Why the hell would she think that?

Did I look so nervous that it gave her the idea that Sam wanted out?

Kate looked at me, her bottom lip quivering.

She looked like she was about to have a nervous breakdown.

"Go to her," Ray said. He was feeling sorry and sad for our mate. "Tell her the truth. Make her understand that this whole thing is just a misunderstanding."

I slowly got to my feet and went to Kate, squatting in front of her and taking her hands.

I wasn't sure what to say or how. I was never good with feelings and words, but this was my mate, and I needed to comfort her.

"Baby," I said, trying to keep my voice level. I was still pissed at my mother, and I was scared I would say the wrong thing. "The reason why I am here is to tell you two things."

I raised my gaze, searching for Kate's.

She was looking at the ceiling, blinking, and fighting the tears back.

I couldn't handle the fact that my mate was so sad and heartbroken, and that was all because of my mother.

I internally growled.

"Kate, look at me, please," I said, feeling my heart hurt in my chest. I didn't like seeing Kate like this.

Kate slowly dropped her gaze, staring down at me. Her eyes were full of crystal-clear tears.

"I need to tell you something," I said. "Do you understand?"

Kate nodded, trying hard not to blink.

"Okay," I said and sighed. "The first thing is, Sam wants to come see and talk to you."

Kate moved her face away, and tears escaped her eyes and rolled down her already flustered cheeks. Her body started to shake, and a sob escaped her lips.

"Kate, he wants to come explain things to you." I tried to comfort her. "He feels really bad about what happened. It is all a misunderstanding."

Kate moved her gaze toward me, looking at me in disbelief.

"He is really sorry. Even Grey apologized to Sam."

Kate narrowed her eyes in response. "I know what I saw," she stuttered between sobs.

"I know," I said, getting to my feet and taking a step back. "I saw it too, but it is not what Sam planned."

"He loves her!" She sobbed. "I can't compete with that. She is a fully functional she-wolf."

"That's where you are wrong," I said. "Sam is many things, but he loves you and only you. He wants to be with you; we all do. I promise."

I could see Kate was processing my words, yet she didn't believe them.

I couldn't blame her; if that happened to me, I would have felt the same—betrayed. But at least there was a bit of hope; she was willing to listen to me.

Sam just needed to come and explain everything to her.

"What's the second thing?" Kate asked between sobs.

"We have decided to have the Alpha Ceremony in two weeks," I said.

"I'm happy for you," she whispered, swallowing down her sobs.

"We want to introduce you to the pack as our mate and Luna the same night," I said, pinning Kate's gaze.

"No," Kate said, and a cold chill ran down my spine. "No, no, no. I can't. You deserve better. I can't be your Luna."

"You are the best," I said. "And we want you to be our Luna."

My chest suddenly felt thick, like it had become difficult to breathe. "We don't want anyone else."

"Colt!" She said, her voice breaking. "Look at me!"

"But I am," I said.

Why did this suddenly feel like a bloody rejection?

Grey must have come and explained things; he is better than me at these kinds of things.

"Did you hear what she said about me?" Kate asked. "She called me that disabled thing! You see, your pack will never accept me, and as hard as I try to be good enough, I think I know when I need to call it quits."

"I am not going to accept your rejection!" I said, getting to my feet.

"It's better for the both of us," she whispered tiredly.

"No!" I growled. "It is not. I love you! And I have never felt like this about anyone else before. The same goes for my brothers!"

"Y-y-you love me?" Kate stuttered.

"Yes!" I said. "Don't you understand? You are everything we want! So please, baby, don't make me beg; I'm an Alpha for God's sake."

That made Kate laugh and cry again at the same time.

Damn, I was bad at this kind of thing.

When Kate eventually stopped crying, she looked embarrassed.

"Come one," I said. "Let's get you into the tub. It will make you feel better."

Kate nodded, and I headed to the bathroom, opening the taps.

"Which flavor bubble bath would you prefer?" I asked, hearing her coming closer.

"The ocean breeze, please," she said.

"Excellent choice!" I said, trying to lift the mood. "Would you like to have a glass of wine with that?"

Gosh, I sounded like Sam.

Kate smiled, shaking her head.

"That will do," she said. "If I started drinking now, you might take advantage of me, Alpha."

I shivered at the way she said my title, awakening something different, something dominant, and something dark inside me.

My cock twitched, indicating where this was about to go, and my body stiffened, knowing it wasn't the time.

At that second, I knew that if I turned around now, I would lift her out of that chair and f*ck her.

"Maybe that is what she needs," Ray yapped, focusing on different kinds of kinky sex positions in my mind.

I shook my head, trying to get rid of the images, cursing Ray for making it so difficult.

I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding, closed the taps, and turned around.

I was surprised to know that Kate had pushed her chair right behind me, and her eyes held the same hunger as mine.

Was Kate about to go rogue on my body?
