Rejected, My Jaded Love
Episode 43

“How about you get your f*****g hands off of her” I hear Tate say.

I close my eyes and almost cry, thank the Goddess my brother is here.

“Yea, you want to get your nasty hands off of her right now” I hear Dixon say.

“Dude if we tell you again, it is going to be really bad for you” I hear Travis say.

“I don’t know who you guys are, but this is my ex-girlfriend, we had a little misunderstanding, and we are trying to work through it. So, mind your own business and leave us alone” Eric says to them.

“The only thing that you’ll be working through is a cold compress for your eye if you don’t take your hands off my friend right this second” I hear Bree say.

I twist my head around and see my friends lined up to defend me, including the two guys that Bree and Nicole had been talking to. I breathe a sigh of relief and move to let Eric know that I want up. He presses himself into me again, before he gets up and I crab walk myself back towards Tate and Dixon and I don’t take my eyes off Eric until I get to their feet. They each take one of my arms and gently help me up from the ground.

“You, Ok?’ Tate asks me, never taking his eyes off of Eric.

“Yes, I am now,” I tell him. They each give the arm that they are holding a little squeeze, letting me know I don’t have anything to worry about, they have got me.

Tate and Dixon then push me gently behind them and turn back to look at Eric.

“What have we told you? My brother told you when you followed her to Sedona that he was going to kill if you came after Jade again, yet here we are” Tate says.

“I am a Soon-to-be Alpha; you can’t threaten me” Eric yells at Tate.

“Well Stupid, so is Tyler. You have got to be the dumbest Alpha to ever draw a breath. If you ever see her again. Walk the other way. Do not approach her. And most importantly do NOT touch her ever again” Tate looks past Eric at the group standing behind him and says “None of you guys. None of you will touch her ever again. I don’t know how your pack has survived this long with total idiots running it, but I will say it one more time as I think you need it, if you see her again this week, this month, this year, this lifetime. I need you to turn and walk away. Are we all on the same page now?” Tate says to them and takes time to look them all in the eye.

“I don’t take orders from you, whoever you are, and she likes me so the next time you see us we could be out on a date. You can’t stop me, and you don’t scare me. If I want her, it is a matter of time before I get her. Willing or unwilling” Eric says back to Tate.

Tate roars and lunges forward. He punches Eric in the face, and they start fighting, dropping to the ground, and punching each other. Kyle and Travis then start fighting. Jeremy comes forward yelling at me about starting this whole thing when Dixon pushes me further behind him and steps up and punches Jeremy in the mouth. Danica and Sophia come forward aggressively yelling at me and calling me a slut, Bree steps up next to me and says, “You two really willing to bet that you can take us both on and win? Because I guarantee you both, that you can’t”.

They then start backing up from me, with Danica calling over to me “Next time b***h, we will catch you alone and finish this”. I know that Danica is mad because her boyfriend just told everyone present that he wants me. The girls call over at Eric, Jeremy, and Kyle as the scuffle is over to come one with them. Eric is laying on his back on the ground. When he gets up, I see that Eric has a split l*p and a blackened eye, but Tate doesn’t look like he took a blow from Eric, Jeremy has bruising coming up on his face and chest, but Dixon also looks fine. Kyle has a bloody nose, but Travis also looks unscathed. I am glad they guys didn’t get hurt defending me, that would have really upset me.

As Eric walks away backward, he is looking right at me and says, “See you later Jade.” before he laughs and turns around to run off with his group.

I didn’t even realize that I was crying, Tate reaches over and brushes a tear away with his thumb and says, “Are you ok Jade, really ok, where are you hurt?”

“I am ok, just scared. I didn’t expect to see them again, and here they are the very next day. I was alone and I got away three times until Eric tackled me to the ground and I couldn’t get up. Thank you so much for coming for me.” I tell him and reach up to give him a tight hug and cry harder. I was so scared, I am still scared, but I am better because my friends are with me, and I feel so much safer now.

“Jessica came running up to us and told us what was happening and then we tracked the boys down. I am sorry it took us two minutes to replace them and then another two to get here. From now on, we will stay together, I am not letting that pack of dumbasses get anywhere near you again.” Bree tells me.

“I didn’t think they would be here either, but a lot of wolves like to hang out here on Spring Break. Let’s go back to the boat. I want to tell Tyler what happened and let him know that Eric and his group are here too.” Tate says.

“I was so scared when I saw he had you pinned down Jade. He is such a p*****t. You can tell he has a thing for you. What a creep” Bree says as we start walking back towards where our boat is.

As we swim out to the boat, I am so thankful that the boys came to the Sandbar with us. It would have gone a lot differently if someone would have had to swim out to the boat to get the guys. Eric could have taken me with them, and no one would have been able to replace me. I try to calm myself, but the memory of him pressing himself into me, is making me sick, I need to continue applying myself in my training because I should have been able to get away from them, even with the sand slowing me down.

I finally get to the boat, but Tate had gotten got there first and was watching us swim up as he tells Tyler what happened. Tyler growls loudly in rage and said, “Where were you, Tate?”

“We got stopped by some girls who were flirting with us. How could I have known that they would be there Tyler? I am not physic. I thought she would be safe there it is just a small sandbar and she wanted to go. How could I have known they would be here too? I did warn him to leave her alone and to walk away if he saw her again, and then he said he would get her “willingly or unwillingly” Tate relayed, and he stopped talking because Tyler, Mason, and Braxton all growling loudly. Tate resumes “and that is what started the fight on the beach”.

“He said that, that he would replace her again and take her willingly or unwillingly?” Mason asks.

“Yea, he did” Bree responds “and then the boys all started fighting. And then those two sluts approached Jade to fight her, so I stepped up to let them know it would be a fair fight, and that they were going to be losing it. The correctly chose to not engage”

“I have got to learn more moves, I got away from them three times, but Eric still caught me again and tackled me,” I say. “I don’t know enough, and I couldn’t get away. I need to train more, I need to learn more, I am scared” I whisper the last and realize I am crying.

Mason sits down next to me and asks “Are you hurt Jade, where does it hurt right now. The adrenaline is slowing down so you will be able to feel the pain better. What hurts right now?”

“My waist and my wrist’s,” I tell him.
