However, immediately I got in, the sight I met took me completely off guard.

The room wasn't a hall. It was a chamber. A massive one, decorated in deep blacks and dark silvers. Tapestries hung on the walls, depicting battles and wolves and things I didn't recognize. Candles flickered everywhere, casting long shadows that danced like living things.

And seated before me, on a throne, was Soren.

But he wasn't alone.

Beside him, draped across an ornate chair with the kind of posture that screamed I

  • Bound To The Alpha I Rejected    CHAPTER SEVENTY EIGHT

    KAELAN'S POVThe forest had been lying to me for hours.Every trail I followed, every scent I caught, every broken branch I found. It all led nowhere. Circles within circles. A maze of false hope designed to keep me running while Seraphina waited somewhere in the dark, alone, scared, probably wondering if I was even coming for her.At this point, I was damn frustrated.I stopped in the middle of a small clearing. The moon hung overhead, pale and indifferent. My chest heaved. My hands were bloody from punching trees, from tearing through branches, from gripping my sword so tight my knuckles had gone white.Think.I closed my eyes. Forced myself to breathe. Forced myself to focus past the rage clouding my mind.The scent was wrong. Too strong in some places. Too faint in others. Deliberately laid. Like someone had walked one direction, then doubled back, then sent another wolf in a completely different direction just to confuse me.The person who did this had to be someone who was reall

    SERAPHINA'S POVThe rope had been cutting into my wrists for what felt like hours. It was thick, knotted tight. It would take me quite a while to wriggle and break free. But I had to try. I had to escape. I had to save Nathan and be with my Alpha again.I didn't know what Asher was capable of. I doubted he wouldn't kill me when he got mad or felt like it. And since Isolde said Kaelan had been misled, he most likely wasn't going to find us. Even if he did, it might be too late. I couldn't just sit here and wait for him.I continued wriggling, trying to find my way around the knotted rope. But it was tied too tight. Still, I didn't stop. Couldn't stop. Every twist, every pull, every scream of pain from my raw skin was worth it if it meant getting free.Nathan was crying now. Not the soft whimper from before. A real cry. Hungry. Scared.Asher's words echoed in my head."Listen to your son cry for milk you can't give him."Rage burned through me. Hotter than the cold of this stone tomb. I

  • Bound To The Alpha I Rejected    CHAPTER SEVENTY SIX

    SERAPHINA'S POVThe first thing I felt was cold.Not the gentle chill of a winter night. This was deep. Bone-deep. The kind of cold that seeped into your veins and made you forget what warmth felt like.The second thing I heard was silence.No guards. No healers. No Kaelan's voice booming through the corridor.Just... nothing.I tried to open my eyes. My eyelids felt heavy, like someone had pressed weights against them. I tried again. Slowly, the darkness blurred into shapes.Stone ceiling. Flickering torchlight. Shadows dancing on the walls.Where am I? I was in the private hospital just now. What happened? Is Kaelan safe?I tried to move. My wrists were tied. Rough rope bit into my skin. My ankles too.Panic clawed at my chest.Nathan.I turned my head, ignoring the pain that shot through my neck.He was there. In a small bassinet a few feet away. Sleeping. Unharmed.Relief flooded through me. Then rage.Who took us?The answer came as footsteps echoed from the shadows.---A figure

    KAELAN'S POVI released Asher and ran.I threw open the door to Seraphina's room without slowing down.The bed was empty.The sheets were rumpled. Still warm. Her scent lingered—lavender and honey—but it was already fading, mixing with the cold night air pouring through the open window.Nathan's bassinet was empty too.The blankets were tossed aside. A single stuffed wolf lay on the floor.I picked it up. It still smelled like him. Like baby powder and milk and that soft, sweet scent that only infants carry. I pressed it to my nose for just a second. Just one breath.Then I shoved it into my pocket.I spun around, my chest heaving. My hands were shaking. I couldn't breathe."WHERE ARE THEY?"Asher stood in the doorway, calm. Collected. His smile was gone now, replaced by something colder. Satisfaction."Alyssa," he said softly. "Seraphina. Nathan." He tilted his head. "You took one from me. I'm taking two from you."He let the words hang in the air like a death sentence."Fair trade,

    KAELAN'S POVThe moon rose over Stonecrest, fat and silver, spilling its light across the palace walls like spilled milk.I stood at the window of my study, my fist pressed against the cold glass. Tempest stirred inside me, restless. Hungry. The full moon always did this to him. To all of us.But tonight was going to be different. I knew it. I felt it in my bones.The air was too still. The shadows too deep.Asher's text from earlier burned in my memory. "He's beautiful, Kaelan. It would be a shame if something happened to him."No matter what, blood was going to spill tonight. The fight between me and Asher had been delayed for too long. It needed to be let out.Asher and I needed to fight man-to-man. Blood-for-blood. I had always shed blood when it came to something I needed to protect.I did it for her in her past life. Even though I doubted she had seen that in her past memories. Even though I later had to kill her myself—plunged a dagger through her chest because my hands were ha

    ISOLDE'S POVThe news spread through the palace like wildfire.The Luna had given birth. A son. A healthy male Alpha pup.I sat in my chambers, staring at the wall, my hands clenched in my lap.A son.That damn witch gave birth to a fucking son. An heir to the throne. If she couldn't miscarry her baby, she could have at least given birth to a girl.I hissed, running my hands through my hair.This was all Asher's fault. That slow maid confirmed she had delivered my letter, so why hadn't I gotten any reply? Why hadn't Asher and his forces stormed Stonecrest yet?I stood up and paced. My heels clicked against the marble floor. Every click felt like a countdown, a reminder of time slipping through my fingers.I thought about Seraphina. About the way Kaelan looked at her. Like she was the only person in the world. Like I didn't exist.I had been here first. I had played my part. I had done everything they asked. And what did I get? Nothing. A dead pup. A broken body. A title that meant not

    The silence in the room became deafening. I almost lost my composure, but I caught myself just in time"The person who started those rumours should have his neck cut off," I said, my voice cold. She recoiled, startled."Do you believe in the rumours yourself, Luna Marcella?" I asked, and if she no

    SERAPHINA'S POVI stood in front of the mirror, checking my baby bump which was now a tiny bit protuded. Shouldn't it have grown bigger than this? I'm four weeks gone.I smiled as I touched it, and a tiny bit of Ivanna's conversation with me seeped into my head. I really don't like thinking about m

    SERAPHINA'S POVDid I hear wrong? I'm pregnant?"How? It's only been a week since we ...." I paused, and of course, the nonchalant Kaelan speaks."Since we had sex," he completed, and the old man grinned. “The Moon Goddess has moved quickly. You are with child, Your Majesty.”I looked at Kaelan. H

    KAELAN'S POVI left Seraphina’s room, the image of her tear-streaked, empty face seared behind my eyes. Rio materialized from the shadows of the corridor, his expression carefully neutral.“How is she?”“She’s lost her wolf,” I said, the words tasting like ash.I stopped in my tracks, and faced him
