Zeke and I always said we'd be best friends forever since we were pups. Everyone always assumed we'd end up as mates but we laughed it off. So when we both turned 18 and the string of destiny snapped into place tying us together, I was over the moon. But Zeke telling me he'd never mate with a mutt like me. 

Now my worst enemy Chris and I have a plan. 

"What if…we fake dated?" 
"What?" 
"Nothing would really piss Zeke off more than not only you saying no to being his breeder than also making him think we're getting each other's rocks off" 
"You in?"
I stuck my hand out. "You got it, boyfriend."

Rejected by My Best Friend Alpha

　　I watched as Vivian walked away with Zeke. Something in me wanted to call out to her and stop her, but I didn't. I looked back at Sam, who was staring intently at me as if she were judging me. "Are you okay, Chris?"


　　I nodded, grabbing my glass and taking a long drink. "I'm fine. That was a weird exchange. Should we continue our date?"


　　She shrugged. "I'm actually not feeling too well. Can you walk me home?"


　　I looked around and signaled for the water to bring us our check. I didn't feel up to continuing our date, either. I just wanted to go home and rest. I felt a migraine coming on. Leaving Sam's company didn't sound appealing, though. "Did you want to come home with me?"


　　Sam smirked. "Not on the first date, silly. Maybe next time."


　　I blushed. "Not for that. I don't want to be away from you."


　　She patted my hand. "I know. I was playing with you. But no. I have some things to take care of at home."
