Chapter 2
Jasmine’s POV
Mira was asking him to come over so she could prepare a thank–you meal for him, in thanks for helping her when she fell down the stairs. I scoffed in disdain.
I couldn’t help scrolling through their message history. It was like reading the messages between two lovers. Liam sounded so sweet in these messages, nothing like the distant and negligent person that I was constantly putting up with.
I froze as I stared at a particular message that Liam had sent to Mira ~ I wished we
never broke up, then we would still be together, because I know we’re fated for
each other, mates or not.

I didn’t bother to read Mira‘ s message as an empty feeling settled in my heart. I kept staring at his message and I couldn’t help

as I laughed bitterly and hysterically.
“What is so funny?” Liam asked, walking into the room with an annoyed look on his face. Then his eyes darkened in rage as he saw me with his phone. He stormed towards me and snatched out his phone with a venomous glare at me.
“Why the hell are you going through my phone?” He growled, holding me by shoulder and shaking me roughly. I stared at him with a bitter smile.
“You wished you never broke up with Mira, huh? The two of you are fated for each other, right?” I retorted.
Liam clenched his jaw in anger, glaring at me. “Oh, please don’t make a big deal out of nothing. I was just trying to comfort. her, nothing else.”
I scoffed, “Nothing else, of course. You must think I’m a fool, Liam, but you are the fool”
He growled in displeasure. “Watch your

tongue, Jasmine. I am your Alpha.”
“And I am your Luna, I will not be treated like nothing, Liam.” I said firmly.
Just as he was about to respond, his phone rang. Immediately he saw the caller ID, his expression brightened. It must be Mira. He picked it without any delay with a grin on his face.
“Hey Liam.” Mira murmured, “Did you see my message? You didn’t reply. Are you coming?”
“Yeah, I saw it. Of course I’m coming.” He replied eagerly. “I’ll be there in a few minutes, don’t worry”
My heart clenched at how happy he sounded. He finished preparing, and was about to leave.
I shook my head sadly. “You just got back, Liam, and now you‘ re going back.” I
said.
He rolled his eyes. “She invited me for

dinner; it will be rude of me to decline.”
“Come on, Liam. Are you really going to abandon me here tonight to go eat dinner with Mira?”
He released an exasperated sigh. “Stop making a big deal out of it. I’ll be back tomorrow.” He turned to leave.
I had exhausted all my patience. I clutched the bed sheets tightly, and gritted my teeth.
“Liam!” I growled, “If you step out that door, I’ll reject you as mate, and I’ll raise this child on my own!”
Liam paused and turned to me with a lifted. eyebrow. However, when he saw that I was totally serious, his expression softened.
“Come on, Jas. Mira needs me. She doesn’t have anyone else here except me. I’m just trying to help to be a good companion.”
Tears welled up in my eyes. He just didn’t understand what I was trying to say.
“Liam, you’re choosing to help her at the

expense of your own family,” I
interrupted, my voice shook, as I struggled not to cry. “You‘ re my mate, the father of our child. You‘ re supposed to be here for us.”
“Come on Jas! You‘ re my mate and my Luna! Is that not enough for you?” He snapped in frustration.
