  • Marked by the moon—Rejected by my Alpha mate    CHAPTER 16: Reluctant Yes

    { Elena's POV } It was freaking 9pm and that bastard isn't back home yet. I hope he isn't somewhere fucking some derided bitch, I'll kill him if he is. He's so far away I can't even mindlink him, his phone is switched off too. My muscles hadn't been able to relax since I left the east border that morning. I've been pacing around my room like a lunatic. My head is spinning too with each second passing by. Mother had come to check on me multiple times to see if I was alright, because obviously, my uneasiness was visible even though I tried my best to hide it over lunch. Nicholas' last words had been playing like a ridiculous song in my head. I can't seem to turn it off. An attempted murder tied to blackstone pack—what the hell! Joining forces with him—Nicholas freaking Hale! Might seem has a good idea, I mean, he's powerful and attractively dangerous, his aura says it all—Oh goddess I love powerful men but I don't trust myself. I might do crazy things if I'm around that man, really

  • Marked by the moon—Rejected by my Alpha mate    CHAPTER 15: Alliance Forming. 

    { Nicholas POV } I stepped aside, and he strode in like he owned the place—actually he did; the building was one of the many rental properties owned by the Crescent Moon pack. I'd realized that when I moved in, Dorian booked the place, so staying here wasn't intentional, but I guess Dorian knew how to plan coincidences. “So…” I started, shutting the door, “What brings you here?”“Taking an apartment on one of our properties, huh? Is that a strategy to get closer to my sister?” Ambrose said, already relaxed on one of the couches, his voice cold. “Funny,” I chuckled, taking a seat on one of the couches across from him, “actually, I heard your houses had the tightest security and perfect interior decor, so why not?” A smug smile formed on my lips. He eyed me warily, and it only made my smile grow wider. “You care for a drink? I got whatever Roseville stores had to offer.”“And you think offering me a drink is the best decision you can make after catching you touching my sister.” Ambros

  • Marked by the moon—Rejected by my Alpha mate    CHAPTER 14: You In Or Not

    { Nicholas POV } She came.I'll admit, I wasn't entirely sure she would. Elena Rivers strikes me as the kind of woman who does the opposite of what you expect just to prove she can. But came, right on time, coat pulled tight against the cold, arms tucked in pockets. Kyle was insufferable the entire walk to the border. I'd stopped responding to him by the time I spotted her pacing.She didn't hear me coming. I stood there for exactly three seconds watching her mutter something under her breath, probably cursing me, before I announced myself.“Hey.” She turned and I felt it. That pull. Same as always. Worse than always, actually, because this time she was sucking me all in with her gaze—she scanned me from head to toe, lips slightly apart. I chuckled to myself at her reaction, she had it every single time we met, she could feel us but why she hasn't recognized us yet still unravels me. As much as I hate to admit—I wanted her. Simple as that and complicated as hell. I wanted to claim

  • Marked by the moon—Rejected by my Alpha mate    CHAPTER 13: The Proposal

    [Elena's POV]My pulse quickened. I didn't need to think twice to know who sent the letter. Nicholas Hale, my handsome stalker. What hat does he want now? “You should go.” Lia muttered. “Of course you would say I should go.” I rolled my eyes at her, and she huffed. I looked outside the window to see if there was any trace of someone lurking in the shadows just in case Mr. N followed us back home today, but there was nothing; everything seemed okay. I heaved a breath and closed my window shut and threw the note into my drawer, then headed for the bathroom. I had showered for thirty minutes straight; the warm water felt so good on my skin I didn't feel like getting out. My head felt a lot lighter now, at least now I could think straight and feel the slight sting in my palm from where the glass had pierced. It should be fine before dawn. I quickly changed into my nightgown and headed for the door. I need to speak with Ambrose. The sound of my footsteps echoed through the hallway

  • Marked by the moon—Rejected by my Alpha mate    CHAPTER 12: The Note

    [ Elena's POV ]His hand was still on my face when Ambrose found us. I did not hear my brother coming, I was too caught up in a pair of amber eyes and the warmth of a thumb brushing the last of my tears away. The sound of his voice snapping mid-sentence was what brought me out of the spell."Elena where the hell have you—"A pause. Then silence.I stepped back from Nicholas so fast I nearly lost my footing in the heels. Ambrose stood at the garden entrance, eyes moving slowly from my face to Nicholas, then down to the hand that had just been touching my cheek. His expression did the thing it does when he is calculating—perfectly still, giving nothing away and that was somehow worse than anger."Ambrose—" I started."Who is this." It wasn't a question, he never asked a question in this tone. “Don't be ridiculous now, you saw what happened, Ambrose. He caught me when Lucan threw me.”“And so fucking what if he did.” He huffed, walking towards where I stood. “Ambrose?!”“Just be quie

    { Nicholas POV} I didn't know if it was instinct, Kyle, or just me, but I ran here as soon as I could to catch her from hitting her delicate skin against the hard tile. “I got you.” weře the words that left my lips the moment I gripped her waist with my hands. She was so frightened, she held my neck like her life depended on it, her eyes closed tight, chest heaving. That bastard had flung her with such force that shouldn't be used on a woman. Not just any woman—my mate. My anger was blazing hot. Kyle was going wild inside me. I had to force him to stay calm; going feral won't help right now. The crowd stood in awe, their brains probably trying to process how to react to the situation in front of them. Slowly her breathing became steady, her beautiful eyes fluttered open—meeting her gaze calmed Kyle instantly. Her expression was quite unreadable—shock mixed with something that looked like relief, like she was glad I came to save her.“Nicholas,” she muttered, slowly losing her g

    { Elena's POV } I stared at the different shades of lipstick on the dressing table, unable to pick the right one that would match my outfit for tonight. Champagne red? Crimson? Hot pink? Damn! I was confused as hell. Makeup wasn't my thing. It was more of Melissa's. I rarely wore it, except on

    [Elena's POV] Everyone turned to face me with questioning looks, their gazes so sharp they could slice through me.“What?” Ambrose spat out. “Are you out of your mind, Lena?” came Elijah. Mother and Sophia shot me glares. Dad stayed unusually calm, and it unsettled me the most. Would they even

    [Third-person POV]Blackstone Pack. Luna Amira paced back and forth in the living room while Lucan sat unbothered on the sofa, sipping his morning coffee. The curtains were still drawn, making the room dim despite the morning hour. “You seem pissed, Mother,” he said in an eerily calm tone. “Who w

    [Nicholas's POV ] I strode out of the room and flung the door shut with a loud bang. Her sobs followed next. For a moment, I felt regret; a part of me wanted to go back and apologize... but no!It had to stop one day and that day was today."You did the right thing," Kyle said in a reassuring tone.
