Sabrina.

I stood awkwardly on the dance floor, trying to act unfazed by the absence of my mate, especially, in the middle of the dancing floor, alone, where the couples were supposed to be dancing, but I was failing, miserably, too.

Their eyes were on me, heavily, filled with equal dosages of pity and judgment, especially as they looked at the now-empty space, where Amery was occupying, and the empty space next to me, where Rhys was supposed to be standing.

Where he was? The answer was

  • ALMOST REJECTED; FATE'S CHOICE    Craving chaos...

    Sabrina. " The people who opposed your parents' union were the closer kins." He whispered, tremors of something deeper accompanying his words. I could also see the deep-rooted bitterness simmering at the surface of his eyes. The story was deeper, it seemed. " Your parents were fated mates. But their union was highly opposed. They thought that she deserved better. In their opinion, a princess deserved to marry a person of equal status, not a warrior. " He added, his voice deep, his look meaningful as it held mine. Someone better! Not a mere warrior! Those words had me clenching my fists. " Your Mom was stubborn. She opposed them and went ahead and mated with him.." " On the surface, they seemed to have given up." He added, his gaze strained to the distance. " They gave them their blessings. They threw in the best wedding, ever. Diamonds and golds, bright lights, slow music, expensive wines, and vibes." " The bride and groom were happy, relaxed, grateful, looking forward

  • ALMOST REJECTED; FATE'S CHOICE    I hope,

    Sabrina. I knew that going to the palace was a risky move, especially now, with all the facts laid down. It was almost suicidal, even, since I didn't know who I could and couldn't trust. But my godparents had been investigating the cause of my Mom's death for close to two months with no results. If going to the palace was the only way I could get the answers, then I was more than willing to take the risk. It would break their hearts, yes, but not going would leave a room for a lifelong guilty-grind. I didn't want that. Besides, I also wanted to find my parent's killers. To see monsters who took the joy of having a father from me, and a mother, too. " I have already made my mind, godparents. If I don't go, we might never find the results." " I know I can't trust many people there, almost all of them, but with your support and guidance, I will be safe. Besides, I am also a trained warrior. If the situation becomes tense, I can defend myself. " I added, frantically,

  • ALMOST REJECTED; FATE'S CHOICE    I hope you will support me,

    Sabrina. " Sabrina? We have always wanted the best for you. So, naturally, we would support anything that makes you happy." My godfather expressed, looking greatly troubled.. " Your father's death might not have been as simple as it looked. We have a feeling that your mother knew, too." " Maybe that's why she accepted the invitation to fight for the kingdom as a warrior back then." He added, his gaze strained to the distance. And I fell into a stupor as the past resurfaced in my mind. She had never liked the werewolf royals. She never wanted to have anything to do with them. She had even told me to stay away from anything connected to them. Then, she became the Queen of the battlefield. She'd led our pack into victory against three rogue packs. Then the royal invitation came. She got a summon. She was supposed to join the battle in defending the kingdom against an invasion by the Dragons. She'd accepted the invitation, fought, worn, and brought a trophy home. For a whil

    Sabrina " Someone like me?" My voice shook as I asked, disbelief and pain painting my face red. "Someone weak, you meant. Right godfather?" Once again, I asked, but this time, there was a ghostly smile on my lips, almost self-mocking. The life that wasn't meant for me. For a person who wasn't strong enough! Bitterness rose to my gut as I interpreted those seemingly harmless words. In the past, I used to be weak and pathetic. Years later, after working on myself, after becoming someone, a warrior, they still had the images of the former me, igrained in their memories. " You are reading too much into this, Sabrina. I didn't mean to call you weak. You have never been weak in our eyes." Calmly, my godfather expressed, his calm demeanour rendering me speechless. "What I am saying is, we actually don't want you to go to the palace. And those words that I said? I was simply trying to lead your mind away." He added, the expression on his face grave, the worry that glossed

  • ALMOST REJECTED; FATE'S CHOICE    Right?

    Sabrina When I told them about Ivy being a princess, my godparents didn't seem surprised. It was like they'd known, all along, and to say the least? I felt like a fool. I mean, I had stayed with Ivy for over four years and I had only recently discovered that she was a royal werewolf princess, while my godparents had to just look at her once and immediately define her roots. That was like a huge smack on my intelligence. " Don't act so beaten up. Your uncle is a royal born, himself. He also grew up in the palace. He is very familiar with every member of the royal family. Of course, he could tell that Ivy was a royalty." " As for me? I also grew up in the royal palace. I am also very familiar with Ivy's parents. That's how we were able to tell right away despite how hard she tried to mask her royal aur." Maybe she might have seen through my thoughts because my godmother explained, her tone warm and gentle. And to me, it felt more like she was just trying to make me feel be

  • ALMOST REJECTED; FATE'S CHOICE    That's right.

    Sabrina. They seemed happy, glad that Rhys and I were finally working things out. In the past few days, I had felt the same, too. Before I found out about the bet, I had also been imagining a future between the two of us, and so had the entire pack, my in-laws included. They had all seen how happy we had been, after all. They had all witnessed those evening walks, and the occasion giggles that punctuated them. But that was not the reality. And although I knew that the truth and my decision was probably going to break their hearts, I was going to tell them anyway. There was no use in holding onto something that was obviously slipping away. " Those few happy moments that you all witnessed were nothing but a bet between Amery and Rhys " I whispered, expecting my voice to break, tears to glim at the corners of my eyes, but there was nothing. I guess that was the calmness that came with clarity and choosing to save whatever dignity you had left. " What are you talking about
