Chapter: Chapter TwelveThe sheets felt rumpled beneath my hands. I stretched my arm across the bed reaching for Miguel, but the space beside me was empty. My eyes flew open. He had fallen asleep in my room the night before. I scrambled to my feet, leaving my slippers behind.“Miguel!” I called out for him, as I came out of my room.He popped his head out from behind his bedroom door. “Yes, mummy.”I stared at him, confused. “Baby, come out fully would you.”Somehow I was more curious about why he was hiding behind his door than why he wasn’t beside me in bed.“Are you sure mummy?”“Of course I’m sure, baby.” I tightened my silk robe around me.He came out of his room and said, “I dressed for school,” he looked down as though he had been caught doing something bad.“Mummy, you had a bad dream yesterday,” then he pulled the puppy face at me. “And I didn’t want to disturb mummy,” he came closer to me and hugged my legs then looked up at me with his doe eyes, and I was not falling for it this time.I hated when

Chapter: Chapter ElevenThe restaurant app was still open on my phone, but I put my phone down on the kitchen counter.He saw her. Which meant he had seen the phone pointed at him, which also meant he had seen someone watching. That explained why she looked pale. Jet lag? Pft, Becky flies like she was born with wings. Did he confront her? Did he do something to her? I thought to myself. "How did it happen?” I asked “Did he demand something from you?” I dragged both my hands down my face and pressed my lips together, staring at her.She unexpectedly let out a hysterical laugh. “Do you see yourself? I don't think you're over this man.”Annoyed at her outburst, I pushed past her to the living room, which further ignited her laughter.“Hush it! Miguel is asleep.” I pointed at his room door and rolled my eyes at her. “I'm ordering nothing for you,” I sat on the sofa to finish my order and made payment. “You think this is funny? This is serious.” I said, refusing to look at her.“I'm so sorryyy, but your face.”

Chapter: Chapter TenMy phone buzzed again. “I'm not joking. I think it's him!” Then a video notification popped up beneath it.With shaky hands, I set my phone face down on my desk, pretending I didn’t see a thing as I picked up a file I had promised myself I'd work on after the meeting. My head pounded at the same rate my heart was beating as I read the same sentence over and over again and with ever passing seconds, my vision blurred. Surely, it must be some random man she has mistaken for Brian, but I know Becky isn't stupid. My phone buzzed again, this time longer than the message notifications. I couldn't bring myself to ignore it, so I turned my phone and my eyes set on the screen. Becky was calling. Without delay, I declined the call, my phone screen was damp from my sweaty hands.“You can ignore me, but this is important!!” Her message appeared immediately after. From the exclamation mark alone, I could hear Becky's voice yelling in my head. Another video notification popped up again and her

Chapter: Chapter NineThe handshake lasted exactly as long as it should have.“And you are?” She asked.“I… I'm… I'm Sophia… Sophia Hart,” I released her hand and reached behind me to right the chair I had knocked. Mostly because I needed somewhere to put my hands and something to look at that wasn't her face.“It's great meeting you Sophia Hart. One of Aurevéra's best jewellery designers,” she took her seat. “How does that sound? Excellent right?” The smile she had never left her face. Someone seeing her for the first time would think she smiles on a daily basis. Milson.The name replayed in my head. Of all the– No. Milson is a name. Names are just sounds and the world is full of them. I said to myself.Nobody really called her Mrs. Milson. Not the board. Not the department heads. Not even the clients who had been with the company since its founding. Heck, the name plate on her desk read ‘Naomi Chief Executive Officer.’ She was simply Mrs. Naomi and somehow that single name carried more weight than mos

Chapter: Chapter EightThat sent a shiver down my spine, but I brushed it off. I have to be brave. The moment the elevator reached the ground floor. The commotion in the company was loud as people ran from the supposed fire emergency Mr. Collins started. I pushed through the crowd and at the far end of the reception Mr. Collins pointed at me to the security officers. I pushed even harder, in no time I reached the parking lot, but my feet were no longer on the ground as the security guard held me by my arm. “Let me go! I'm a staff, I work here and not a thief!” I yelled. “Mr. Collins claims you stole from his office.” The security guard on my right said to me.“Yes…” Mr. Collins came into view panting dreadfully. He took in an amount of breath before he said “She stole!” Pointing his index finger at me, his chest heaving up and down while his other hand rested over his round belly. He reached for the paper file, but I squeezed the files tightly in my hands as he tried to pull it away from me. “No!” I scr

Chapter: Chapter Seven“Mummy, but I don't want to stay home.” Miguel crawled on his bed to meet me from where I sat on his bed to hug me.“No baby, your body says otherwise. It's burning hot.” I place my palm on his forehead. “Ouch! so hot.” I fan my hand. He laughed faintly. “No mummy I'm not.” I sighed. Healthy Miguel would have tried to make a joke from what I said. “Just rest baby. For today, tomorrow I'll drop you off personally at school.” “Okay mummy. Is Aunty Becky coming over?” “No baby, she's still in London. Nanny Ann will take care of you.” “Nana?” He asked brushing his dark hair away from his face.“Yes baby. Looks like someone needs a haircut,” I pat his head and lay him back on his bed. “I have to go to work now unless mummy will be late.”He nodded in reply as his eyelids slowly flickered closed. I kissed his forehead before leaving his room. A call came through my car Bluetooth that was connected to my phone. The screen revealed CEO. I picked the call, and her motherly voice sounde

THE ROGUE HE DENIED
“I, Neolani Griffin accept you as my mate,” I beamed, waiting for him excitedly to accept me too.
There was a long pause.
“Who gave you the right to call me by my name?” He snapped, anger dripping from every word he spoke.“Answer me” He barked, eyes locked on mine.
“How do you know my name? It must have been the maidservants right?, I'll have them stripped off their post” He stepped away from me.
“I, Ragnar Gray, reject you Noelani Griffin as my mate”
Neolani never asked to be a rogue. Once an Alpha, once a daughter, her world was in shambles the night her family was murdered and her pack taken hostage by her half-uncle. Now, she’s nothing but a rogue, fighting to survive where wolves like her are despised.
On the run for survival she unkowingly crosses the borders of Alpha Ragnar pack who is known for his cruelty, powerful, merciless, and loyalty to a pack that sees rogues as the enemy. Alpha Ragnar prepares to end her without a second thought, but then he feels it. The bond, she’s his mate.
The one thing he swore he would never want. Worse, his heart already belongs to someone else: his beautiful childhood friend who was mated to his beta, Kendrick. He rejected the bond the moment it burned through him.
But desire doesn’t wait for permission. With every stolen glance, and every reckless touch, the line between hatred begins to blur.
Together, they could ignite a powerful love that is if pride and betrayal don’t destroy them first.

Chapter: Chapter TenNEOLANI POV“How did you know?” I asked, watching him as he leaned back on the sofa.“I saw you attack him,” Kendrick said, with a grin slowly forming. “And he didn't kill you.” He shrugged, as if the answer was obvious. “That only means you're his mate.”“I'm not.” The words came out clipped and defensive. “I attacked him for a reason,” I stated, folding my arms across my chest. “I'm fed up with him.”“You don’t need to lie, it's obvious.”He was quiet for some time. ”I know who you are. I know who your father is,” He rose from the sofa slowly. “You're from the Crescent Pack.”I didn't utter a word, he did the same, staring blankly at me waiting for a reply.A lump formed in my throat as memories I had buried resurfaced about my family and the last time I ever saw them.“Crescent Pack is no more,” I whispered. I tilted my head back fighting the stings in my eyes, blinking them rapidly. “My family was killed, I got lucky and survived as a rogue until I met Ragnar.”Despite how simple

Chapter: Chapter Nine RAGNAR POVI was grateful Hannah hadn't seen Noelani. If she had… what would have happened? How had Noelani even escaped her room? My thoughts roamed as my chest throbbed with that cursed, burning ache. A constant reminder of the mate bond I refused to accept, intensified. Rejecting one's mate always has repercussions, but to hell with it. The moment Noelani said my name, it stirred something in me that I couldn't comprehend, something I didn't want to. Ajax kept on chanting in my head to accept and mark her to make her ours. I refused, I wasn't the one interested in her and never would be. At least I was being honest and not toying with her feelings.Weeks had passed since I last laid eyes on Neolani. The throbbing pain in my chest became something I got used to, no longer flinching as much as before. Ajax kept on pestering to see her and never stopped whining about her, saying she couldn't handle the pain the way I could. Our wolves were bound, but our human halves were not. It was

Chapter: Chapter EightRAGNAR POVI had gone out to inspect the guards scheduled for evening patrol, when a scent hit me so strong it stopped me in my tracks. It was a mixture of sweet vanilla and cocoa. My wolf howled in excitement, urging me to follow the scent. I shifted into my wolf form, running through the woods, the scent pulled me deeper. And then I saw her, a rogue who ran into the borders of my pack. My wolf, Ajax, stirred and howled louder in my head, demanding I let him through, but I subdued him with a snarl. There was no way the Moon Goddess had possibly matched me with a rogue. I let out a rumbling growl that echoed through the woods as I closed in on her.She looked disheveled, and lost. I planned to do away with her when I finally got her pinned down beneath me, but Ajax pleaded. Her green eyes stared back at me, causing my heart to skip a beat. Despite her fragile appearance, she was a fierce one, even in her human form, as she fought to flee my grip by throwing grit into my eyes. I howled

Chapter: Chapter Seven NOELANI POVHe didn't flinch, as if the pain was nothing and pushed my jaw away from his neck. He clamped my neck with his jaw, lifted me from the ground and threw me across the room. I slammed into a mirror, shattering glass fell on me as I dropped to the floor.Some broken parts of the mirror pierced my back. I whimpered, staggering on my paws as the wound healed immediately. My ears perked up, and I shook the glass that fell on my fur. This time Lana screamed in my head to stop and I ignored her. I had, had it with my mate. He stood across the living room, his wolf towered over mine, which made the living room seem small, but it wasn't.This time he tried mind-linking me, but I blocked him. Snapping menacingly at him.We went round in circles gnarling and snapping at each other. He tried mind-linking again, and I still blocked him because his voice would weaken me to submit, and I didn't want that. I lunged at him, but he blocked it, causing me to hit the wall. I groaned, shaking m

Chapter: Chapter SixNOELANI POVIvana was the last person I saw before I went unconscious. I stirred on the bed when I felt a presence beside me. My eyes fluttered open and Hannah was seated on a chair beside my bed crying. As I sat upright on the bed, she looked up at me.“You're alive,” she bawled. "When I saw you struggling to breathe, I thought you were going to die. Alpha said you've not recovered."Hannah was worried about me and not what I had done to her the day before. Engulfed with shame, I looked away from her.“I'm sorry about yesterday,” I whispered.“It's alright,” she sniffled. “I'm doing fine, it's you who's still sick.”“I'm not sick.”“But the Alph–”“Please Hannah, I want to be alone,” I cut her off. She stared at me in disbelief. “I'm not going to run off…I can't even,” I whispered, turning my back to her.As I heard her leave, I curled up on the bed and cried. The scenery from yesterday replayed in my head as the agonizing pain in my heart built up, causing me to gasp for air just li

Chapter: Chapter Five NOELANI POV‘Mate’I froze upon hearing Lana speak in my head for the first time in years.‘Lana…I've missed you, it's been long, been years’ I whispered in my head.‘Mate’, she said again, ignoring what I said.‘What do you mean by mate, who's my mate?’ ‘Alpha is mate’ Her last word sent a cold shiver down my spine. That's when I smelt it. His smell. It smelled like wood, sweet coffee and a hint of warm cinnamon, mellow and impossibly comforting, something I couldn't name. It surrounded his office.‘All this time the alpha was my mate? He knew all along? Why didn't he tell me? Was that why he demanded that I stay quiet till you come back? But he just told Hannah he didn't have a mate and didn't need one.’Lana whimpered in my head after my last statement.‘Don't worry yourself Lana, there's no way he'd hate us, he can't hate us. Mate can't hate each other and if they do, they will both be hurting themselves. And legend says rejected mates would be inflicted with pains worse than an
