{ Elena's POV }

I had read the text message three times last night when it came and still couldn't bring myself to believe what was written in it.

I dropped the phone on the nightstand and rolled back to his arms, trying to hold on to any piece of warmth left from what we did earlier. I didn't want it ruined so soon.

He asked what happened but I told him it was nothing. What could I say at that time? When I can't fully process what I just read.

It can't be true. It just can't. And it better no

  • Marked by the moon—Rejected by my Alpha mate    CHAPTER 69: Make Me Forget Him.

    { Ambrose's POV }The meeting was one hell of its kind. Boring land and territory talks and the worst part, Alpha Cade didn't let me utter a single word. He let Elijah give all the contributions while I sat there like some dumb tyrant heir who's been forced to learn pack leadership.And I had some useful suggestions. But I guess I will keep them to myself and go have a drink with my old buddy, Julian. I called him earlier and he had picked a place for us to meet. Turns out Julian is still the same—money hungry and never satisfied. He was excited to help as long as the pay was good. I killed my car's engine after entering the parking area of Hudson Suites and Hotels, privately owned by one of the high ranking Alphas in Roseville. The female receptionist at the entrance greeted me with a charming smile which I didn't return. Wasn't it against work policy to flirt with customers? Julian said the bar for VIPs was on the second floor like I couldn't find my way around. Dude, this used t

  • Marked by the moon—Rejected by my Alpha mate    CHAPTER 68: Maybe I Kinda Like Him

    { Nicholas POV }Collective nods in agreement to my statement came from all three of them. “But how?” Ambrose asked, his brows drawn together . “this murder happened twenty five years ago. Like three years before Elena and I was born.” The disbelief in his voice made the whole thing sound impossible. But I'm certain there would be a way. There's always a way, you just have to look closer. “Don't Roseville keep a record of rogue attacks and the damages done?” Renaya asked, flopping backwards onto the couch. “I mean, every standard werewolf community does that.”“We do.” Elena countered cooly. “The Luna Council holds it, and it's practically locked down.”“Nothing is impossible.” The twins looked at me with that ‘you've lost it’ look. Now I'm starting to feel dumb.“Stop staring at me like that.”“Yeah.” Renaya cut in. “Why stare at him like that?”Ambrose gave her a quick look before answering. “The security is as tight as a vault. Alarm systems everywhere. High sensitivity cameras

  • Marked by the moon—Rejected by my Alpha mate    CHAPTER 67: Time’s Ticking

    { Nicholas’s POV } I felt it—the sharp turn in her mood like ten minutes later after she left downstairs, it hit me all the way from the living room, so I got dressed fast and took my usual route down to the courtyard. By the time she stormed out onto the porch, the look on her face already said the conversation had gone straight to hell. She saw me waiting and didn’t slow down, just walked past me like the innocent cobblestone ground itself had offended her. “Let’s get out of here.” I didn’t ask questions. Angry Elena didn’t need questions, she needed movement. I followed her to the car, got in, and let the silence and the low hum of the car's engine sit between us all the way to my place. When I pushed the apartment door open, the very last person I wanted to see was already making herself comfortable. Princess Renaya, in nothing but a sports bra and tiny bum shorts so tight her hips were on display, her hair was packed in a loose messy bun. She sat at the dining table with a

  • Marked by the moon—Rejected by my Alpha mate    CHAPTER 66: There’s No Stopping Me!

    { Elena’s POV }“You should get going.”Nicholas sat on my sofa in only his boxers, a book open in his hands like he was actually reading it.“Nope.” His voice sounded bored, but his eyes stayed glued on the page. “I’ll be waiting right here until you finish with Daddy.”I pulled my sleeveless beige crop top over my head and gave him a warning smile. “No, darling. I’m not doing shit with you today again.”He shut the book with a sharp snap, dropped it on the sofa, and gave me a flat look. “It’s about work. Get your mind out of the gutter.”I rolled my eyes and did the zipper of my trousers. “Oh whatever. Just hide. Like—not hide. Just stay quiet so you don’t get caught.”I didn’t wait for his answer. I stepped out, shut the door behind me, and started down the stairs with my pulse already climbing high, high up. Dad ignored me, like he acted like I wasn't even present in this mansion these last few days, now he wants to talk. Wow. Great.And let's hope it goes well. Gosh! Our relation

  • Marked by the moon—Rejected by my Alpha mate    CHAPTER 65: Dangerous Secret.

    { Elena's POV }Shit!I jerked my hand away from his manhood. Nicholas cursed. His lips stopped moving against mine and I almost died from the loss. All the tension and heat instantly vanished from the room. No. No. No! Luna Sephrina you're such a vibe killer.“Elena!”Sweet goddess. Weren't they supposed to be out?“Seems like we're getting caught.” Nicholas grinned, that annoying cocky smile of his and pressed a soft kiss on my lips. “Really.” I pushed at his tanned chest. The dude is not even the least bothered. “My mom is outside the door and all you can do is kiss me. Dickhead she could barge in any moment.”And Nicholas still had the guts to actually laugh.“I'm coming in if you don't answer me.” A thud landed on the door. Nicholas and I exchanged urgent looks. Mom's not giving up.“Don't bother. It's locked.” I called back.Fuck it! I cursed mentally jumping off the bed. The room was a total mess—I was arranging when Nicholas sneaked in—and now I can't find my panties or shirt

  • Marked by the moon—Rejected by my Alpha mate    CHAPTER 64: Sweet Torture

    { Elena's POV }The next six days were a whirlwind of events, both good and not so good ones. Nicholas had driven me back home that evening after breaking the kiss. He offered to take me to my room but I had to refuse no matter how tempting it was. The pack was at high vigilance that day, so I couldn't risk him getting caught so I gave a deep kiss as an apology. Back home, it turns out that Officer Garrett, who's the head security officer of our archives, had been the one who gave Melissa access to the stone. In fact, they had it all planned out so smoothly and all for just twenty thousand dollars! Alpha Cade was beyond pissed. It was totally insane. A pack member is supposed to be loyal and protect the pack's secret with their life. Ours betrayed us for just a few thousand dollars. He and Alvin are currently being dealt with in the dungeon after which they will be banished when they spit out everything damn thing they know so we can get clues on how to retrieve the Umbral. Lucan's

    Elena's POV The forest was too quiet. No crickets. No wind. Just the sound of my heart pounding like a war drum in my chest.I don't know how long I've been running, but I know I'm close to the borders of Roseville, the most dangerous part of the city, prone to frequent rogue attacks. I had to sto

    [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.
