Bella's POV

I ran the third switchback eleven times before I let myself stop.

Draven hadn't come down to the track that morning — pack business. Thor had said something about the southern boundary that needed his attention before midday.

I told myself I was relieved, and that it didn't matter whether he was here or not, but these days I'd told myself a lot of things that didn't hold up well under examination, and this was one of them.

His absence let me focus on the bike instead of him, which w

  • I Rejected My Mate For The Biker Rogue Lord.   Chapter ninety nine

    Bella's POVDraven was twenty minutes late.I'd already pulled the bike out, checked the tire pressure twice, run through the day's plan in my head three times and crossed the straight at least twice by the time he came down the path from the main building, still buttoning his cuff, his hair damp like he'd washed up in a hurry."You're late," I said."I know.""Thor keep you?" I asked when he didn't make any further excuses."Something like that." He reached for his helmet on the bench without looking at me."Are you riding with me?" I asked, surprised, and he looked up at me with a sigh."Do you want me to just stand here? I want to be able to monitor your position."He dragged his bike closer to me, wincing on each step. I studied him for a second, watching his movements. There was a stiffness in the way he was moving, careful around his left side."Are you hurt?" I asked and he shook his head."I'm fine.""You're favoring your ribs.""I bumped into a doorframe." He swung his leg ov

  • I Rejected My Mate For The Biker Rogue Lord.   Chapter ninety eight

    Draven's POV"Train with me," Bella said.We were still standing where I'd stopped her, the garage close enough that I could hear Cade's drill running somewhere inside, and she was looking at me with wide, fixed eyes like training would fix what had just happened in her room."No," I said.She blinked. "No?""Not today.""Draven—""I need an hour," I said. "Maybe two. I'll find you after."She studied me for a second, the same way she studied a bike before deciding what was wrong with it, and whatever she saw must have satisfied her because she didn't push."Fine," she said. "Two hours."She walked toward the garage. I watched her go until she was inside. I could hear her exchanging words with Gordon. Only then did I let myself stop holding my breath.I crossed the field, the rage I'd been holding in my gut climbing into my chest. I found Thor in the war room going through patrol logs.He looked up when I came in and whatever was on my face made him set the logs down immediately."Wha

  • I Rejected My Mate For The Biker Rogue Lord.   Chapter ninety six

    Ronan's POVSeven days.I had been counting the days constantly. One would think I had gone mad.It had been a long time since I had been this excited for anything. But it didn't matter, because I would soon get what I wanted.Seven days and Bella would be on a course.Against me.She was frail but determined and stubborn, so I knew she wouldn't reject the challenge.I stood at the window of the temporary quarters the council had arranged, close enough to the rogue territory that I could smell the pine and woodsmoke of it on a clear morning, if the wind was right.Both parties were required to be within a day's ride of the course by race week. My men had set up three miles east in a cluster of buildings the council used for exactly this purpose — neutral ground, close enough for inspection rights, far enough from both packs that neither could claim provocation.I had been here for four days.Four days of looking at that treeline and wondering if I would catch a glimpse of her, even th

  • I Rejected My Mate For The Biker Rogue Lord.   Chapter ninety five

    Bella's POVThe moment I got on the bike, everything felt wrong before I even started the engine.It wasn't the bike itself — Cade had built this one and I had worked with it a few times with him so I knew every bolt and cable and the particular way the frame sat under pressure.The bike was right.It was me doing something wrong, the way I was sitting on it, the way my hands found the grips and then second-guessed the finding, my body had forgotten what it felt like to be on a bike for the thrill of it.Ten years.I hadn't let myself count it until now, sitting on the bike in the early morning with the crew ranged along the run-off and Draven standing three feet away watching me with his arms folded and nothing on his face that could tell me what he was thinking.Ten years was a long time to forget something that had once been as natural as breathing."You're sitting too far back," Draven said.I adjusted."Further."I moved forward on the seat and felt the weight distribution shift

  • I Rejected My Mate For The Biker Rogue Lord.   Chapter ninety four

    Bella's POV"I think I'm going to leave," I muttered as I rose to my feet, running my hands through my hair."We need to talk about this," he roared but I waved him off."I need some air, we can talk about it later," I hissed as I walked out of Draven's office the same way I had entered it.This time though my mind was in more turmoil than when I had walked in.I understood why Draven wanted to talk about this now. If I was the one racing then a lot of things changed. I would need a new bike and I would have to relearn how to ride. I hadn't done it since my parents died.But I didn't work that way. I needed to process things for a while and make my own decisions. I had planned to use this race to free myself from Ronan's control, to take my revenge. This changed things."Where are you going?" I turned to the voice. It was Thor leaning against the wall with his arms folded over his chest looking like he'd been through hell and back."I need some air," I mumbled and he nodded."I can un

    Bella's POVRonan almost fell to the floor as he coughed up blood, his body folding in on itself as if he were weakly—no, even weaker than I was ever supposed to be.“How dare you, Bella?” He snapped, his voice hoarse yet filled with disbelief. As if the idea of me rejecting him first was something
