Ashley's POV

"They're… " I began, scowling out into the dark woods, my voice trembling as the distorted bodies moved in closer to us, their horrific smiles glinting in the fading light.

"Rogues! Take cover!" David shouted, finishing my sentence, his voice slicing as he motioned us towards a huge tree trunk, bark thick and mossy. We scurried, hugging the wood, low, my heart pounding like a drumbeat, my mind remembering Jayden's hands on me, warm and rough, fucking me until I forgot my fear, a memory shrouded by Ella's lies about me humping David in public to ruin me.

The rogues came towards our position, their ground-shaking steps shaking the earth, their muzzle sniffing the air like a dog. David, the surprise kicker, raised his arms, warning us to be quiet, his eyes on the beasts. We took a breath, my chest constricted, hoping that their senses were blunted, my ears ready, my wolf growling low, ready to battle.

They were blind, snorting frantically but to us, their heads crashing back

  • I Am The Alpha's Rejected Mate    Chapter 133

    Ashley's POV"The wheels just kissed the tarmac ladies!!" Rodney announced just as I felt the jet slow to a steady crawl. The engines slowly hummed down, the big bird rolling elegantly across the private runway. We had landed. Without a word did Zara get up to her feet, disappearing with purposeful movements into a small inner cabin near the rear of the aircraft. A few moments later she re emerged with two sleek black jackets that slung over her shoulder and a pair of tinted specs in her hands. " You'd need this," she said, tossing a jacket to David and the other to me. " Put 'em on. You'll look every inch like those mid level corporate drones who are always in Zurich meetings.".David chuckled at this, winking at her Zara stylishly. I felt the texture of the jacket, noting instantly the smooth fabric and the nature at which it was tailored to fit yet nondescript enough to draw no attention. I slid it on and caught a glimpse of my reflection in the polished side panel. I could bar

  • I Am The Alpha's Rejected Mate    Chapter 132

    Ashley's POVThe two strangers moved with expertise and precision. They flipped switches,scanned dials,and spoke to each other in efficient tones."Oh they're good at this," David complimented in a whisper,turning to me."The name's Ben," one of the strangers noted in a hushed tone too, a signal that he heard what David said. "And that grumpy guy over there is Rodney." Rodney glanced over his shoulder briefly and nodded. "A pleasure it is," he said, his eyes fixed on me intently before he strode towards me. He had confident strides, his face charming and quite alluring. Reaching me, he picked my hand up in the most high fashioned way and planted a kiss on it. "It's really a pleasure," he said again, winking and smiling. "Well... she's not exactly of that kind" David interrupted, making to pull my hand away from him. "The Alpha won't be so pleased to see this." Rodney caught what David meant, got to his feet and winked at me again before turning away. " Good old pals of mine," Z

  • I Am The Alpha's Rejected Mate    Chapter 131

    Ashley's POV "Move!" Zara snapped. "Fast!" She turned around with urgency, the fire behind us blazing like a second sun and illuminating her fierce eyes. We all broke into a brisk walk, nearly jogging. We stumbled over the uneven terrain, passing the gravel that gradually turned to packed dirt, then narrowed into winding paths. The moonlight flickered through the trees, casting eerie shadows that seemed to dance at our feet. After several tense minutes of weaving through the paths, Zara came to a sudden halt. "Hold on a sec," she muttered, slipping her hand into her pocket and pulling out her phone. Raising it up slightly, her arm extended over her head and slowly made slow arcs, more like she was drawing invisible lines in the air. "Damn it," she muttered, clearly frustrated. She took two steps to her right, then to the left. David opened his mouth. "Do you mind .." "Yes!!" Zara hissed before he could even finish. She turned to us. "The explosion of the ambulance made it dif

  • I Am The Alpha's Rejected Mate    Chapter 130

    Ashley's POVThe hum of the engine slowly became a lullaby, the vibrations of the road becoming a slow, steady heartbeat beneath me, harmonizing with mine. Zara spoke not another words after the checkpoint saga, her focus welded to the road ahead. David had leaned back too, his hands far away from his neck and his eyes slipping shut now and then. Where we were going to? I had not a flinch of an idea, but I knew for sure that I could trust Zara with that. The tension of the day, right from the fight back in the police station to that in Zara's makeshift house to the explosion in the bar, it all came crashing down like a weight over my chest and finally, exhaustion won. The darkness swallowed me whole as I shut my eyes. Then I was standing. But no longer in the car, not even in New York city. I stood barefoot on a cool marble flooring that was surrounded by a fog. I looked around, confused and ever willing to leave. But two figures suddenly appeared before me. They were partially o

  • I Am The Alpha's Rejected Mate    Chapter 129

    Ashley's POV"David!!" I called again, my voice shaking as I reached out to him. He was still, unmovingHis body lay limp on the stretcher, eyes shot and jaw slightly slack. "Damn it Ashley, so David's gonna die like this?" "Shut up!!" I rebuked Zara, feeling cold fear creeping up my spine and rooting me in place. Zara scoffed, yanking the handbrake and swinging the driver's door open. Within seconds she was already in the backseat, sliding next to me. "Move Ashley, please!" she barked, kneeling beside David and grabbing his wrist in search for his pulse. At this point I had lost understanding of what was really going on. Did David kill himself or let himself die?"David, please," I whispered, my hands trembling terribly as I cradled his face. "Don't do this."Then something happened suddenly and Zara gasped. I followed her gaze--and froze. "It's... closing up." I noted, pointing to the wound on David's neck. It wasn't just clotting, it was closing right before our very eyes.

  • I Am The Alpha's Rejected Mate    Chapter 128

    Ashley's POV"We'd outrun them, chil Ashley," Zara replied, not slowing down for even a second. Her hands were on the steering wheel with such force that her knuckles had turned bone white. I could feel every jerk of the vehicle as I kept pressure on the gauze on David, adjusting the wrap and trying to hold the wound together with nothing but sheer will. "You can do this David," I whispered, feeling yet another jerk of the vehicle as we tore down what seemed like an endless stretch of cracked roads. The bleeding had slowed, but hadn't stopped yet. I noticed his eyes blink open again, dull and struggling. "We made it out David, just hold on," I said in a soft voice. Zara took a sharp left, the tires screeching as we drifted slightly before catching traction again. We passed a dark alley, the buildings around blurring into silhouettes. There was no more flashing lights or yelling or siren. Just the gutteral growl of the engine and our ragged breaths. "We've lost them completely As
