Rejected My Alpha Mate

#Chapter 20 Tell me all about it

Tyler POV

LUST

Going back to the beginning sounded like a better idea than it was proving to be as a reality.

"You want another drink?"

Tyler nudged his tumbler back toward the bartender who obediently refilled it. They were drinking well

drinks which were higher quality at LUST than other establishments.

One of the main advantages to being a patron of LUST was the fact all their amenities were better than

the average establishment's and their prices reflected as much.

"Rachel is everywhere, man! I swear your mate is going to double my next quarter returns. Every news

agency has run a byline or at least a blurb. She's on all the social medias. She's trending on most of

them!"

"Dylan?"

Dylan looked up from his phone with barely concealed glee plastered all over his face. He was loving

the success Camelot was celebrating courtesy of Rachel's fame. She was approaching meteoric if his

yammering was anything to go on and Tyler knew Dylan never exaggerated his business dealings with

him.

They were too close to compete with one another in the business arena. As far as Tyler was

concerned, Dylan Roberts was the brother he'd always wanted for himself. Dylan was a Hell of a lot

more reliable than his actual brother William.

"Shut up. I don't want to talk about Rachel."

"That makes you the only one. You want to tell me what you do want to talk about? Why are we here of

all places? You have an itch I should be helping you scratch?"

Neither of them were above admitting they'd indulged in the offerings of the club in the past. Paying for

sex was easier than working for it with a lot of talk though neither Dylan nor Tyler had ever needed to

worry about buying company.

They could have gotten women based on looks and Alpha status alone. With their money and name

recognition, most women would accept a pick-up from either of them.

"No. No itches. I'm just trying to remind myself of something."

"Something wouldn't happen to be the first time you met one Rachel Flores would it?"

Dylan was going to be spoon fed his shit-eating grin if he didn't wipe it off his face.

Tyler frowned at him, "You know I met her here."

"Yes. I do remember. It was a pretty memorable night for both of us. I got to experience twins and you

found your fated mate---only to lose her hours later. I still remember how you sounded when you called

me asking if I had seen her leave!"

Tyler hadn't known what to think about his mate taking off without even leaving her name. She never

explained fully, but Tyler knew it had something to do with her father's gambling debts. They had wound

up in a world of misery together thanks to Patrick Flores and his bad luck at the gaming hells.

"Her old man put her up to that. You know, right?"

Tyler nodded and finished throwing back his drink. He dragged his finger around the rim of the glass as

he considered whether he wanted to tie one on or go slow.

Liquor made things easier to bear---but it also had the side effect of making Tyler vulnerable to spilling

his feelings out for others to hear.

"Would you like another, sir?"

"I'd like one," a feminine voice cooed and Tyler tensed, frowning as he watched Jenny slide onto the

stool beside him, "I think my friend will take one as well. We're going to drink to our health!"

Tyler covered his glass with his hand to stop the bartender from pouring. He wasn't in the mood to deal

with Jenny. Was the woman having some sort of psychotic episode? She had to know he'd been

serious when he'd shooed her away before. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

"Jenny. What are you doing here?"

"I like the drinks---and the company," Jenny said, "Aren't you going to share even one drink with me for

old times sake?"

Jenny pouted and Tyler had to resist the urge to slap her. How could he have ever thought she was

beautiful? She was so fake it was almost as if he were watching a robot pretending to be human. He

doubted Jenny had felt anything real in years.

"No. We aren't keeping company together, Jenny. You should find someone else to occupy your time

with now."

Tyler wasn't going to have anything to do with her in the future. He was rejecting his mate tomorrow

then he was going to drink until he forgot he'd performed the rejection ritual. After that? Tyler just hoped

he woke up with his memory intact so he didn't have to relive losing Rachel again.

"I don't want to find someone else. I've already found you and you're all I want, Tyler."

Jenny pressed her breasts against my arm as she leaned over me. I could smell the liquor on her

breath; I wanted to shove her away, but, before I could, a waiter tripped, spilling a pair of champagne

flutes all over Jenny.

"You idiot!" she shrieked.

"I'm so sorry, lady! Let me get you a towel."

The bartender hastily wiped at the spill on the bar with his rag. He offered a stack of fine napkins as he

tried to soothe Jenny. Her dress didn't look as if it were good material to be doused in alcohol.

"I want to speak to your manager! Right now!"

"I said I was sorry," the boy snapped, turning the tray over to the bartender. He looked as annoyed as

Jenny. I was getting a headache just thinking about the situation and stood up, ready to leave.

There was nothing for me here in this club. I had found my fated mate here purely by chance -or

literally by the hand of fate if common beliefs about the Moon Goddess were to be believed- and I

wasn't going to have another try to find her again.

A man made his way over to our group as I was paying. I placed several bills down. There would be

plenty for a tip remaining even if the drinks were twice as expensive as I estimated.

"Tyler, let me just settle this and we can go."

"We aren't going anywhere, Jenny."

I would be damned before I would take Jenny anywhere ever again. I was sick of the fake bitch and I

just wanted to go home. To my empty house.

"Of course we are! You've finally gotten that gold digging whore out of your life so we can be together!"

"Rachel isn't your concern."

I was prepared to have to fight Jenny off to get out of the club, but I wasn't prepared to get a fist to the

face!

My cheek exploded in pain and my vision blanked out for a moment. There was a lot of power behind

the suckerpunch! Who had hit me? Why? What was going on?

"You are so getting fired! I will have your ass thrown in jail for this! Tyler, are you alright? Get him some

ice! Right now, idiot!"

The bartender moved to start putting ice into a cloth while shooting panicked glances at the kid who

had spilled his tray on Jenny. What was this kid thinking? I had a good six inches on him in height not

to mention more muscle than worth measuring. I could take him apart without even using any of my

wolf abilities.

Jenny went to press the ice to my face and I shoved her off.

"Do not touch me, Jenny!"

"Trouble in paradise already?"

I shot a confused look at the boy. I really had no idea what had set him off on me. Did he have a thing

for Jenny? Was he some scorned lover? She seemed too old for him and she was definitely out of his

league from a social standpoint.

"What?"

"Aren't you supposed to be sweeping her off her feet to save her from the bad waiter?"

I wasn't interested in whatever was happening. I shrugged irritably as Dylan stood to try to get between

me and the kid.

"I think we need to take a minute to breathe here. Tyler, you should get some of that ice. What's the

problem, kid?"

"What's the problem? The problem is his slut just called my sister a whore and he didn't even try to

defend her!"

"Rachel is your sister?"

I searched his face with my eyes and I could see a resemblance to Rachel there though he definitely

looked more like Patrick than Rachel. He must not have inherited much from their mother. I had never

allowed Rachel to bring her family to my home so this was the first time I'd even seen the boy.

"Yes, Rachel is my sister, you asshole! Who did you think I was? Are you such a tool people punch you

every day?"

"Ethan! That is enough!"

I realized the manager must have arrived as a woman slipped between me and the waiter. She held a

hand up in front of Ethan as if she were warding him off. I wished he would try to hit me again. I could

use the chance to let off some steam of my own though one good hit from me might take him out. Was

he even old enough to be in this club?

"No, Ethan, keep talking. Tell me all about it."
