Sofia's POV.

It was almost impossible to keep my temper in check as I ascended the stairway to my appointed room, Freya was concerned as I hissed continuously. We made a few turns and the maids bowed in respect as we walked past them, the guards also acknowledged my presence but I was too infuriated to greet them.

Freya slowed down and I was shocked, I wanted to get to my privacy as soon as possible.

"Why did we stop?" I asked, irritated.

"I'm sorry my Lady but you just seem not fine to me, is there anything bothering you?" She asked worriedly.

This time; I could see the sincerity in her eyes but I was too angry to reply.

"I'm just tired, can I get to my room please?" I asked.

She was taken aback by my cold response but she had no you and after taking a few more turns in the gigantic Mansion; we finally halted at the front of a huge door which I guessed to be the door to my room. She fished out a key from her inner pocket and unlocked the door. I was welcomed by the scent of freshness and some sort of alluring incense.

"Your room." She announced.

I gave her a ghost of a smile and went in, the room was huge enough to quarter and it was most importantly split into sections. There was a huge dressing table in a corner, an obvious bathroom, and other things I decided to check out later. The bedroom was also demarcated as the room was lavishly furnished.

"Draw me a bath," I ordered.

Though I was angry the fact remained that I stewed in sweat accumulated throughout my journey.

"I will do that right away," Freya said and then scurried into the bathroom, I could hear some movements there and half the time it takes to boil tea later; she emerged from the bathroom and excused herself to go out, she returned with two other maids.

I wiggled my eyebrow in confusion, was she trying to mock me? She understood the look on my face and gave me a bright smile.

"These are the maids assigned to you, My Lady, to bathe and run little errands for you." She explained.

"I can bathe myself." I sternly said.

I scoffed, was the Luis family being serious?

"Luna insists that they wait on you, according to her; you're royalty now and mustn't be allowed to do such menial jobs yourself," Freya added.

I scowled, Luna was overdoing things.

"I can bathe myself, I do not need you three in the bathroom but when I'm done you can dress me up." I insisted.

"But," Freya complained but I shot her a glare and she swallowed her saliva nervously.

"Get my clothes laid out by the time I'm out of the bathroom," I ordered and walked into the bathroom without waiting for their response.

I yanked off my clothing and stepped into the bathtub after making sure the temperature of the water was to my taste. I scoffed as the water came in contact with my skin, I washed my body clean and scrubbed my arms, I felt a little pain and I realized I had scrubbed apart so much that it began to bleed, I hissed and stepped out of the bathtub.

I took a clean towel and dried my body. By the time I went back to the bedroom, my clothes were already laid on the bed. I yanked the towel away and changed into the clothes. They were silky hence appealing to the skin, at least I'd get a good sleep.

The huge king-sized bed bounced as I threw myself on it, I closed my eyes and my supposed mate's face popped up, my eyes flew open and I boiled in anger. Someway, I fell asleep thinking of ways to wipe the stupid grin off his face.

I woke up energized and felt a stare, I yawned and sat up only to see Freya awaiting me.

"Good morning My Lady, you slept well last night and we're more than pleased, your clothes and bath are ready, Luna said to come for breakfast in an hour," Freya said cheerfully.

I gave her a weak smile and nodded my head, I rubbed the back of my neck with my palm as my head hurts, I remembered falling asleep the previous night and slept all through as I was tired from the journey.

I quietly did my morning routine, bathed, and got ready for breakfast. Lateness was something I detested with my entire being.

There were still a few minutes left before I'd be down for breakfast so I took advantage of that free time and checked on my escorts, they had been treated well and I was satisfied with the treatment they got.

I made a mental note to bank the alpha for his benevolence and kind-hearted nature. After all, we are royalty and I deserved such special treatment.

Tired of doing nothing; I decided to go sightseeing and I chose the training ground. My bones ached and I planned on stretching and practicing a little, Freya kicked against it. The poor girl was worried I'd soil my dress and I began to like her. After much persuasion and convincing, she took me there.

I watched from afar as the men practiced and I had to control myself as the urge to join them and spar for a few moments overwhelmed me. I would have done so but my dress restricted me. Feeling that the temptation was too much, I made to leave.

"What do we have here?" I heard a familiar voice say mockingly.

I turned to stand face-to-face with the last person I'd want to see that day.

"Martinez." I hissed and turned to look in another direction .

He chuckled and dismissed Freya with a wave of his hand, Freya bowed and made to leave but I caught her hand.

"Stay," I ordered.

  • The Rejected Substitute Mate.   Chapter 136

    EpilogueAuthor's POV Martinez rushed out of the pack house in desperation, he didn't have a certain direction but he knew that he had to find Sofia and his mother before anything happened to them. Martinez reached the streets but he stopped running, he closed his eyes and tried communicating with his mother through the mind link. 'Mother, where are you, please respond' Martinez pleaded inwardly and waited for a while but there was no response. He was about to walk again when he heard something through the mind link. 'She's about to throw me off the cliffMartinez's eyes widened when he heard this, he ran to the only place that had a waterfall and a cliff. He rushed to the place and he met Sofia there as well. His eyes widened when he saw Elena holding his mother's neck with a knife placed on it and worse, being close to the edge of the cliff. Martinez sauntered quickly to Sofia's side and she looked at him. "What are you doing here?" Sofia asked, worriedly. "I should be ask

  • The Rejected Substitute Mate.   Chapter 135

    Author's POV. Elena smiled to herself and lowered her knees beside him. "I have always wanted this for all the maltreatment which I endured with you, for all the times you cheated on me and secretly humiliated me" Elena smiled more broadly, relishing each second in which he slowly died. Elena traveled her hands to the spot where she stabbed him, she pulled out the knife and quickly stabbed him in the temple, straight into his brain. Alpha Jose gasped and his eyes remained wide open, he was dead. Elena chuckled and tears filled her eyes. She regretted wasting her time with such a person, spending so many years with such an appreciative fellow. Her life was truly a nightmare but now, Alesix would become the Alpha and they would become a happy family. Elena stood up and walked to the windows, she opened them and walked to the bathroom, she washed her hands and continued smiling to herself, in the mirror. She left the bathroom and quickly changed her clothes and disposed of the ol

  • The Rejected Substitute Mate.   Chapter 134

    Author's POV. Martinez was among the Rebels training them then he showed the older ones their next strategies for defeating Alpha Jose's army if they decided to retaliate against the death of their Alpha. Their first plan was to capture Alpha Jose and kill him, though Martinez knew that Alesix would not be in support of his plans but there was no other way. They would not only kill Alpha Jose but imprison Elena. Elena was surely in partnership with Alpha Jose in all his deeds and she had to be punished as well for supporting him. Martinez noticed something was wrong when he mentioned Elena's name, there was this strangeness among them and it didn't go unnoticed. Martinez had also noticed that they had been acting strange for a while, somewhat nervous and reluctant about a few things. He didn't ask them if anything was wrong because he wanted to avoid any awkward situation. He knew who to ask and he hoped that the person wouldn't lie to him. After discussing the strategies with

  • The Rejected Substitute Mate.   Chapter 133

    Author's POV. Sofia was about to speak again but Martinez covered her lips with his hand and placed his finger on his lips, telling her to be mute. Martinez wasn't scared of him catching them. He was prepared to kill him for the havoc he caused his family, Martinez wanted to eliminate him for the years of pain which he gave him. He would never forgive Alpha Jose for destroying the happiness in his life and treating his mother like a piece of dirt, all these years. The memories of how his father died came to his mind and it caused his anger to surge. Sofia, whose gaze was on the ceiling, looked at Martinex and was shocked to see blood dripping from his nose. It scared her to see such. Sofis tried speaking but Martinez shook his head and tightened his grasp on her lips. The footsteps suddenly halted and Sofia noticed that he began walking backwards. She heard a metal clang and then silence. Martinez looked up and noticed that Alpha Jose was gone as well. He wasn't relieved about

  • The Rejected Substitute Mate.   Chapter 132

    Author's POV. Sofia was stunned by what he said, she looked at him and it made her lose focus. Martinez's eyes were still widened as he released her hand and the lantern fell from his other hand. He lost the connection with her magic and couldn't see anything again. “Mother” Martinez panicked, tears were stinging his eyes as he tried to think about whom he just saw. It was like an imagination to him, or maybe a kind of illusion that was made to deceive him. His mother had lost her mind, she left and never returned. “I thought your mother was dead or rather missing, …this means…” Sofía trailed off in shock as it dawned on her that his mother was never missing. She was captured and kept in this place for several years. Sofia knew that the only culprit behind this was Alpha Jose. “She never disappeared, she never left me” his voice shook as painful tears dropped from his eyes. He had thought his mother left since she couldn't handle the grief, and he never hated her for it. He u

  • The Rejected Substitute Mate.   Chapter 131

    Author's POV. Elena's presence was domineering, and they were aware that she wasn't bluffing at all. They might love Sofia and support her ambition to become the Alpha, but they were afraid for their lives. Though they were going to challenge Alpha Jose and Luna Elena, but not in this form. They had Violetta, who was the youngest, and she lost her mother in such a gruesome manner. They couldn't allow Elena to kill the little child who hasn't started a future. The rebels felt disappointed by their cowardice but they were unable to sacrifice their families for a meaningless cause. If they had died at war, then it would have been for greater achievement, but that wasn't the case. “Now that you all are under my jurisdiction and authority, I need you to continue training with Sofia but at the last minute, you will abandon her” Elena ordered with a frown on her lips. The rebels weren't surprised by her evil instructions, but they were unhappy about the betrayal and hurt they would cau
