REIGNITED BONDS: The Return Of The Rejected Luna

"Go ahead and play the victim. That's all you ever do," he spat and rage flashed in her eyes. Before he could process what she was doing, she'd grabbed him by his tie and yanked hard. They both stumbled forward and she crashed into him, her face colliding with his chest. ... When Raelynn's contract marriage to Alpha Rai, her destined mate is threatened on the night of her wedding anniversary, her life takes a spiralling descent into chaos. Divorced and rejected by her own husband, she leaves the pack. And years later, she returns stronger than ever, with a set of twins who take after he ex-husband. Determined to bring her back to his side, Alpha Rai is met with several unexpected encounters including several contenders for Freya's once broken heart. Can he reclaim what was once lost? How does his first love fit into their ill fate? Would they be able to overcome their cursed fate?

Chapter: Epilogue
RAELYNN It was snowing tonight, although not as much as it did during Christmas Eve which was a couple of days ago. Glancing at the light blue sky, I bit my lower lip. A smile tugged at my lips at the sound of the giggles of my youngest child, a new addition to my family. I could hear Rai's deep voice all the way from the sitting room. Together with the sound of the twins' laughter, these sounds had become my favourite. When the sounds ceased, I listened closely for the sound of approaching footsteps. The door opened and I turned around to find Rai standing there with little Aiden in his arms. His amber eyes warmed when they met mine. "Hey," I said and he made his way towards me, pulling me into a hug. I brought my hand to the nape of his neck, letting my fingers drift through the strands of his hair. Rai had ditched his long hair for a shorter hair and a clean undercut. "What's on your mind?" He asked and I beamed at him, running my fingers over his handsome face. "I'm j

Chapter: Ninety Two
RAI Her wedding dress was perfect. Watching her walk towards me with her father made my heart flutter wildly against my rib cage. This wasn't our first wedding. Even so, this day felt like something out of a daydream. When she got to me, she held out a gloved hand to me, which I accepted right away. Steering her towards me, I took a deep breath. "Rai," I heard her whisper. The mere sound of her calling my name sent a wave of heat coursing through my veins. Her gaze met mine and I smiled, a wave of relief washing over me. I'd spent years yearning for her. Still, I'd lied to myself. I'd refused to accept how much I wanted her. I'd been foolish. It didn't help that I'd been struck by an overwhelming guilt when I'd learnt of her 'death'.Fate had given me a new chance to love her properly. "Rai Vidal, do you take Raelynn Norman as your wife and partner, to love and to hold for the rest of your life?" I heard the priest say. "I do," I said, linking my fingers with Raelynn's. She h

RAELYNN "If you don't want to die, open this door," I stated and she swallowed hard, sweat dripping down her temples.All of a sudden, she burst into laughter and doubled over. I eyed her with annoyance. Was everything she'd just displayed merely an act? If it was, it made a lot of sense. She was a part of the witch council. There was no way she was truly afraid of me. Was there something I was missing? As I thought about this, she straightened and cracked a manic smile at me, her eyes glowing with what appeared to be a murderous intent. "You're going to pay for everything you've done," she drawled and I clenched my fists. I didn't understand what she meant. As far as I could tell, I had never encountered her before. Therefore, there was no way I could've offended her unless..."You're the one who invited me here, aren't you? You planned this from the start," I said and she chuckled dryly. "I guess you aren't dumb," she commented, folding her arms across her chest.I obse

RAELYNN Austin took a sip from the can of beer I'd offered him. Then he heaved a sigh, his gaze finding Rai's. "You're still not going to say anything? It's been nearly ten minutes, you know?" Rai said, his gaze unwavering.Austin cleared his throat, leaning back on his seat."My bad," he mumbled and I raised a brow at him. "Alright, try not to freak out--" he started to say, and Rai's expression darkened."Are you kidding me, Austin? Spit it out already," Rai hissed, his impatience written all over his face. "The witch council wishes to have a meeting with Raelynn," Austin stated and my frown deepened."And how's that supposed to be bad news?" I asked and he winced."They must have gotten wind of your involvement with the red tulip cult. They also learnt of the fact that you got rid of the plague," he added. Rai heaved a sigh, running his fingers through his hair."That's not good," he mumbled."I still don't understand. Am I too dull for this?" I said and Rai reached acr

RAELYNN Rose must've thought that she was doing a good job at blurring the line between the truth and the lie. Nonetheless, I'd figured it out. The spell was linked to the fact that I was mated to Rai. "Raelynn..." Rai rasped, his breathing strained. My heart ached for him. It was obvious at this point. Our destinies were ill-fated. We were bound to hurt each other as long as we were bound by our bonds. I'd forgiven him for hurting me and I didn't want him to suffer because of me anymore. With this thought, I came to a conclusion that the only way to save him was to lose him. "It's alright. I'll set you free," I whispered and he smiled weakly. The lights in his eyes grew dim as he gasped for air. I swallowed hard, fresh tears filling my eyes."I, Raelynn Norman, reject you, Rai Vidal..."His eyes bulged in their sockets, terror written all over his face."No...." His voice was laced with desperation when he spoke again.I knew he would refuse to reject me. Even s

Chapter: Eighty Eight
RAI At first, I felt as though I was trapped in an empty space. I couldn't feel my body and I didn't know where I was. By the time I snapped back to reality, I felt as though I was watching myself from afar. And, when I saw the mortifying scene unfolding before my eyes, I went ballistic. "So this is it. This is what it feels like to be in Alpha Rai's body," I heard myself say. It took me a moment to realize what was really good on. Kyan was inside my body. But how?How did things escalate to this aggravating point?It didn't help that I couldn't recall much. When Kyan attempted to kiss my woman, a dam of fury was unlocked inside of me. Therefore, my will to recover my body waxed stronger. Raelynn attempted to push my body away from her and when it didn't work, she jammed her elbow into my guts and I doubled over. I was relieved to know that she'd managed to free herself from Kyan. "Why are you running? Play with me a little longer, will you?" Kyan screamed as he chased afte

His Bride By Force

His Bride By Force

"This isn't love, Killian. It's obsession," I whispered in a shaky voice, my body still trembling from the wave of orgasm that had just hit me. A dark grin curled his lips as he brushed my wet hair away from my face. "Then let me be obsessed." Killian pressed a lingering kiss to my throat and I moaned, my eyes slipping close. "Let me worship you in the dark, if the light was never meant for men like me." .... I should have known better than to sign his contract. My new husband was never meant to be real. He was supposed to be a name on paper, a shield against the vultures circling my late husband's empire. An arrangement with an expiration date. But Killian Cross doesn't let go. He's ruthless, obsessive, and dangerously possessive. The kind of man who doesn't just own his empire. He owns everything in his grasp. And now, that includes me. I thought I could play his game. That I could survive the year, take my freedom, and walk away unscathed. I was wrong. Because my contract husband has made one thing clear. I belong to him now. But what if he's the real enemy hidden in the shadows?

Chapter: 17: Training session, my ass
ALEXA I knew something was wrong the second Killian told me to "wear something comfortable."That was never a good sign. Especially coming from a man who once wore a three-piece to a fucking club. 'Comfort' was not in his vocabulary.So, naturally, I wore leggings and a black tank top, mostly because I suspected we were going somewhere that might involve murder. Or cardio. Either way, I wanted to be prepared.What I wasn't prepared for?A literal underground training facility straight out of a dystopian action movie."What the hell is this?" I asked as I stepped into the massive space. Polished concrete floors. Fluorescent lights. A shooting range on the far end. And in the center? An elevated ring with ropes, mats, and padded floors. Oh, and weapons. So many goddamn weapons.Killian, the smug bastard that he was, tilted his head."Our private training gym," he simply said."Our?"He nodded.I blinked at him. "You're insane.""Thank you for noticing."He walked ahead of me like

Chapter: 16: Emotional Support Vixen
KILLIAN I was too exhausted to think straight, but I knew one thing. I wouldn't sleep unless I was near her.For once, I wanted to shut my mind off for hours without being interrupted by my nightmares. Fuck, I'd had a shitty day. The last thing I wanted to deal with right now was my insomnia.The moment I curled up beside her, something broke inside of me. I didn't mean to. I swear I didn't even realize that I was crying until she spoke."Are you...okay?"Fucking hell, I wasn't okay.I closed my eyes, feeling the tears running down my cheeks. I should've felt embarrassed. But I was too tired to even feel that. All I could feel right then was a relief so immense that it took my breath away. Getting to lie like this with her was something that only happened in my dreams. And surprisingly, she stayed still, letting me hold her.Roman had to be wrong. That woman who'd come to see me couldn't be Seraphina. There was no other woman who could make me feel so at peace with myself. No o

Chapter: 15: Let Me Hold You
ALEXA I was straddling him. His palms cradled my hips, his lips tracing every inch of my skin like he was starving and I was the last thing he would ever taste. There was no roughness in his touch, just tenderness and care."Seraphina," he whispered breathlessly.Stars above, his voice was nothing like the usual cold steel. It was soft and raw.I should've felt powerful and in control. But I…I didn't.I felt... devastated.Because I could feel his love like it was etched into my goddamn bones.My fingers tangled in his hair as I rolled my hips against him. The thick press of him beneath me made my whole body ache. He didn't thrust up. He didn't take over. He just let me take what I needed while he watched me with those heavy-lidded glacial blue eyes that were glassy with lust and passion."You're mine," he moaned, his cock growing harder.And I leaned forward, my mouth brushing against his lips as I breathed."Yours, Saint."His breath caught, and his eyes snapped shut.

Chapter: 14: Bite Me Again
KILLIAN I still remembered the satisfying sound that left Matteo's mouth when I'd chopped off his arm. I should've taken his tongue too. That man had no business breathing close to her, much less touching her. He'd been getting on my nerves lately, but touching Alexa was the final straw. Maybe killing him would've been better. No, it was best if he lived and never forgot this lesson. I stood in my study, the lights dim. One hand swirled the amber liquid in my glass, the other hovered over the biometric scanner beside the fireplace. A soft click echoed, and the bookshelf groaned open, revealing the steel door of my private vault. No one knew it existed. Not even her. Especially not her. I unlocked it. Inside it sat a single black ledger. It contained coded intel, names, dates, blood money and syndicate transactions. There were blackmails so lethal it could turn politicians into ghosts and emperors into pawns. I picked it up, flipping it open slowly. My fingers skimmed over

Chapter: 13: Your Time Is Running Out
ALEXA My black dress clung to my body like a second skin, and the slit ran so high that it might as well have been an invitation to wandering eyes.I hated it because this time I was wearing a dress I hadn't chosen myself. It made me feel like a freaking puppet. My lips were stained with blood-red lipstick that I hadn't chosen, and my hair was twisted into an elegant updo.Killian hadn't told me where we were going yet. Only what I had to look like, and it involved the words 'expensive', 'controlled' and 'quiet'.The message was quite clear. Killian kept his gaze on me the entire time, and there was a strange sparkle in his eyes. It was the kind that screamed how much he wanted to get me naked and in his bed. I hated that I noticed that."You look..." he finally said. "...like a weapon."My fingers curled in my lap. "Is that supposed to be a compliment?""It is."Cool. Love that for me.He reached into his coat pocket and handed me a small silver earpiece. "Put it in. Left ear

Chapter: 12: Sucker For Brooding Psychopaths
ALEXA I was pacing like a lunatic. Back and forth. Then back again. The floor probably hated me by now. My flip-flops made a soft sound against the marble with every furious step, and I imagined Killian's cold, perfect face beneath each one.I was so sick of his games.The photo trembled in my hand, and somehow, I just couldn't get the image out of my head.It was the kind of photo couples take when they think forever is still a thing. It made no sense. Just like the fact that I had shot him, and yet... there had been love in his eyes. Genuine affection.A girl who looked like me smiling so brilliantly while she was latched onto Killian. And the worst part was that girl was me. I don't recall ever smiling that widely ever since I lost my memory.That said a lot about my mental state.The ledger was hidden under my pillow. Poorly hidden, I'll admit. Not because I was bad at keeping secrets. But because my brain had short-circuited the moment I saw those symbols and codes. They look

A Baby For My Professor

A Baby For My Professor

"I can give you what you want, professor," I said, my gaze trained on him. He moved closer to me until my back hit the wall. Then his gaze dropped to my lips, his golden eyes taking on a crimson hue.

Chapter: Extra Chapter 02
ZION Just as the silence thickened between us, the kitchen door creaked open. "Zion?" Mum's voice was soft but steady as she stepped into the sitting room, holding a tray with two steaming mugs. Her eyes widened the moment she saw Annabell with her gun still raised, tension crackling in the air. "Whoa! What's going on here?" I exhaled slowly, the weight of the moment still heavy on my chest. "Mom, this is Annabell." Mum's gaze softened as she looked between us. "Annabell. It's... good to finally meet you." Annabell lowered the gun fully but kept her guard up. "You have no idea what you're getting into." Mum gave her a small, knowing smile. "Maybe not. But Zion's no stranger to complicated." She set the tray down and poured the drinks. "Let's all sit and talk." The tension didn't vanish, but with Mom here, I felt a fragile hope that maybe this mess could somehow be untangled. … I rubbed the back of my neck, trying not to show how uneasy I was. Which was ironic, con

ZION I groaned softly, one hand fumbling blindly across the nightstand for the cursed alarm clock. The harsh buzzing filled the quiet room, dragging me from the fog of a much-needed slumber.I blinked against the morning light filtering through the blinds, my mind still swimming in haze. I'd only just returned to my timeline two hours ago.Suddenly, the sharp ring of the doorbell echoed through the silence, startling me.Confused, I threw off the covers and shuffled towards the front door, my feet dragging across the cold marble floor. Who could be here this early? My heart pounded strangely in my chest, a flicker of anticipation stirring beneath the exhaustion.I opened the door.And there she was.Mum.She stood there like a vision. She was older than I'd ever seen her, but she was still stunning. She was the embodiment of the word "aging like fine wine".Her purple eyes sparkled with that familiar fierceness and the subtle grace that made her stunning without trying. Time had

JAXON The world outside was blanketed in snow. Thick snow flakes fell in slow spirals, coating the pines in white. Inside the house, the fireplace crackled low. I stood near the window, both hands wrapped around a steaming mug of chocolate. Clarissa made it earlier. She said it was tradition. It tasted so good. The warmth from the cup soaked into my palms, and I stared down at it as if it held answers. Stefan was gone. The Hollow King was defeated. Zion... my son—gods, my son—was finally safe. We were free in every way we never thought we could be. And still, I didn't know what to do with the quiet. I didn’t know how to let go of the war in my chest. I heard her footsteps before I felt her. Clarissa's arms slid around my waist from behind, and her cheek pressed to my back. I went still, just for a second, appreciating her warmth. "You're quiet," she murmured. Her voice was softer now. "Everything okay?" I set the mug down and placed my hands over hers. "I don't know h

ZION The second we stepped through the fractured veil, I felt it. The aura of magic that felt wrong. I saw him then. My father. Dorian and Dante had him pinned to the ground, but barely. He was thrashing under their grip, but he wasn’t being fuelled by anger. Mum choked out a cry when she saw him. His body was fighting itself the way a wolf does when rabies takes hold. Only this…this was the aftermath of something worse. Void rot combined with the power of the eclipse wolf wrestling under his skin. He was so strong. Ordinary people wouldn’t have lasted this long. Like hell would I let him end in misery."Get off him,” I barked, already moving.The twins hesitated just for a second. Just long enough for me to see the fear in their eyes, and it pissed me off."He's not your enemy," I snapped. "He's my father.”Dorian growled under his breath, but they released him.And I dropped to my knees.He was trembling, black veins crawling up his skin. He was much paler than I’d ever seen

CLARISSA The blade was still inside me, and I couldn't scream anymore. I coughed up blood, pain shooting through my chest. The whole place tilted, and I collapsed to the ground. The cold seeped into my lungs, numbing the fire in my blood, slowly stealing the strength from my limbs as well as my consciousness.Zion's face hovered over mine while my version blurred at the edges.I reached for him, my fingers trembling. "Don't—" I tried. But the word didn't make it past my lips.And then... everything fell away into darkness. At first, everything was bleak and empty, but then I saw him.It wasn't the man I loved now but the boy he used to be. He could be fifteen, maybe sixteen. He stood at the edge of a crowd, watching the others train, his shoulders set in rigid defiance. He waited for someone to offer him a place among them. But they didn't.Only then did I realize I'd been sucked into Jaxon's consciousness.They kept their distance, watching him with eyes that spoke volumes of h

CLARISSA Jaxon was burning up again. His skin radiated heat as I brushed my fingers across his forehead, tracing the edge of his hairline. His jaw clenched and a low moan escaped his lips as he tossed against the sheets. Fever dreams had claimed him, and it killed me to see him like this.I stroked his damp hair, gently pressing a kiss to his temple. "I'm sorry," I whispered against his burning skin. "I have to save you... even if it costs me everything."His body tensed as if he'd heard me, and for a moment I stayed still, watching the frown settling in between his brows. He was fighting so hard even in his sleep.A hesitant knock broke the silence and the door opened before I could respond.Dante.He stepped in slowly, his body tense with anxiety. His eyes darted over to Jaxon, then to me, and the worry etched deep into his face mirrored my own."How bad is it?" he asked in a hushed voice."Worse." I didn't sugarcoat it. I couldn't afford to.
