Claiming The Rejected Omega

Chapter Seventy Two



Liam’s heart sank as he witnessed the embrace between Chloe and Aiden. His mind raced with a flurry of emotions, each one more intense than the last. For so long, Liam had harbored a deep-seated love for Chloe, believing that she was the one meant to be his. Seeing her with Aiden, in such an intimate way, was a blow to his heart that he wasn’t sure he could recover from.

As the couple walked away hand in hand, Liam felt a simmering jealousy bubble up inside of him. He had always known that Aiden was a threat to his relationship with Chloe, but he had never imagined that she would choose him over Liam. It was a betrayal that he wasn’t sure he could ever forgive.

“What the hell was that?” Liam muttered to himself, shaking his head in disbelief. “I never thought she’d choose him over me.”

As he made his way back to his car, Liam couldn’t shake the feeling of anger and sadness that had taken root inside of him. He had always been the one who was there for Chloe, through thick and thin. He had supported her through every trial and tribulation, never once asking for anything in return. And yet, here he was, watching her walk away with another man.

It was a bitter pill to swallow, and Liam wasn’t sure how he was going to deal with it. He had always been the one in control of his emotions, never allowing himself to be swayed by anyone or anything. But now, seeing Chloe with someone else had shattered his resolve, leaving him feeling vulnerable and exposed.

As he drove home, Liam tried to make sense of his feelings. He knew that he couldn’t keep dwelling on what had happened. He needed to find a way to move forward, to let go of the past and embrace the future. But it wasn’t going to be easy, not by a long shot.

“I’ll figure it out,” Liam said to himself, gripping the steering wheel tightly. “I’ll find a way to get over her, no matter what it takes.”

Deep down, Liam knew that it wasn’t going to be that simple. His love for Chloe ran deep, and it wasn’t something that he could just switch off like a light. But he was determined to try, to put one foot in front of the other and keep moving forward, no matter how hard it might be.

As he pulled into his driveway, Liam took a deep breath and stepped out of the car. He knew that the road ahead was going to be long and difficult, but he was ready to face whatever challenges lay in store. With a heavy heart, he made his way inside, ready to begin the process of letting go and moving on.

Liam had always looked up to Caleb, his Beta, as a wise and experienced voice of reason. As he sat down beside him in the dimly lit study, Liam couldn’t help but feel grateful for the older wolf’s company.

“What’s on your mind, Liam?” Caleb asked, his voice carrying a soothing tone.

Liam sighed deeply, his eyes fixed on the flickering flames of the fireplace. “It’s Chloe,” he said, his voice barely above a whisper.

Caleb nodded understandingly. “Ah, yes. I saw her with that Aiden fellow. Quite the scandal.”

Liam scowled at the mention of Aiden’s name. “I can’t believe she would do this to me, Caleb. We were supposed to be mates.”

Caleb leaned back in his chair, stroking his beard thoughtfully. “Mates, eh? That’s a tricky business, Liam. Sometimes, we think we’ve found the one, but life has a funny way of showing us otherwise.”

Liam shook his head, his eyes darkening. “No, I know she’s the one. I’ve known it since the day we met.”

Caleb arched an eyebrow, a hint of amusement in his expression. “And how long ago was that, Liam?”

Liam felt a flush of embarrassment creeping up his neck. “A long time,” he muttered, looking away.

Caleb chuckled softly. “I thought so. Listen, Liam, I know it hurts. But you can’t force someone to love you. It’s not fair to either of you.”

Liam’s fists clenched tightly, his frustration mounting. “But I don’t understand, Caleb. What changed? Why did she suddenly decide to choose Aiden over me?”

Caleb’s eyes softened with sympathy. “That, my boy, is something only Chloe can answer. But in the meantime, I suggest you focus on healing yourself. Time heals all wounds, as they say.”

Liam sighed heavily, knowing that Caleb was right. But the pain in his heart seemed too heavy to bear.

“I’ll try,” he said, his voice barely above a whisper.

Caleb placed a hand on Liam’s shoulder, giving him a reassuring squeeze. “That’s all anyone can ask, Liam. Just take it one day at a time.”

As Liam left the study, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of gratitude towards Caleb. The older wolf had a way of putting things into perspective, even in the darkest of times. Liam knew that he still had a long road ahead of him, but with Caleb’s guidance, he felt a glimmer of hope for the first time in a long time.

Liam walked into the bar, his thoughts consumed by memories of Chloe. He had thought he was over her, but the pain of her leaving still lingered in his heart. As he sat down at the bar and ordered a drink, he couldn’t help but feel like he was drowning in his own misery.

“Rough night?” a voice said from beside him.

Liam turned to see a woman with long brown hair and piercing green eyes looking at him sympathetically.

“You could say that,” he replied, taking a sip of his drink.

The woman ordered a drink and sat down next to him.

“I know what it’s like to be hurt,” she said. “Sometimes a little distraction can help.”

Liam raised an eyebrow, intrigued by the woman’s words.

“What kind of distraction?” he asked.

The woman leaned in, her lips dangerously close to his ear.

“How about a night of passion?” she whispered.

Liam felt his heart race at the suggestion. He hadn’t been with anyone since Chloe had left him, and the idea of someone else touching him seemed both thrilling and terrifying.

“I don’t know,” he said, hesitating. “I’m not sure I’m ready for that kind of thing.”

The woman smiled, her eyes sparkling.

“That’s okay,” she said. “I’ll be here if you change your mind.”

With that, she got up and walked away, leaving Liam to ponder her words. He couldn’t shake the feeling that he knew her from somewhere, but he couldn’t quite place her.

As he sat there, lost in thought, the woman returned, sliding onto the stool beside him.

“Are you still thinking about it?” she asked, a mischievous grin on her lips.

Liam couldn’t resist her charm any longer. He took her hand and pulled her towards him, kissing her deeply. As their lips met, he felt a surge of desire coursing through his body. For the first time since Chloe had left him, Liam felt alive again.

After they parted, Liam couldn’t help but feel a twinge of guilt. He had never been the type to cheat, but at the same time, he couldn’t deny the attraction he felt towards this woman.

“What’s your name?” he asked, trying to distract himself from his guilty conscience.

The woman smiled mysteriously.

“That’s for me to know and you to find out,” she said, taking his hand. “But I promise you, Liam, that you won’t be disappointed.”

As she disappeared into the crowd, Liam felt a renewed sense of hope. Maybe there was someone out there for him after all, someone who could make him forget about Chloe and all the pain she had caused him.

As he left the bar, Liam couldn’t help but feel like his life was about to take a turn for the better. For the first time in a long time, he felt like he had a reason to be excited about the future.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
