Marked for Ruin: The Alphas’ Rejected Mate ELLA
ELLAI hadn’t healed from the rejection I felt from the twins. I didn’t want to see them, be close to them, or even breathe in their scent, but I knew I was just hurting. I could only stay away from the pack for so long.At some point, I would have to be in the same space as them, and I needed to learn how to deal with my emotions.In school, it was easier to stay away from them as the bullying had drastically reduced. It felt like the rejection was the catalyst they needed to change their minds about picking on me.I didn’t walk past them in the hallway; it seemed like they were doing everything possible to prove that they wanted nothing to do with me. And in a way, that hurt just as much as the bullying.I had grown accustomed to seeing them leaning against my locker with a hateful look in their eyes. Now, there was nothing.I wasn’t sure how to deal with this new development, but I held onto one thing: they rejected me, and I had to live with that for the rest of my life.It probab

ELLAIt was time to train, and Lyla was nowhere to be found. This was the first time she had ever been late for anything we had scheduled.I was a little worried but decided to chalk it up to something keeping her behind schedule. So, I settled on the grass to read a book.I had found the clearing in the woods where she told me to meet her. I could see why she had chosen this place. It was quiet, detached from the town, and had an air of serenity unlike other parts of the woods.On my own, I would have never found somewhere like this. If anything, I would have been locked up in the house with my nose in a book, trying to meet my reading quota.Being outside, enjoying the rare silence I never got in school and the peace I never found anywhere else, was refreshing.At some point, I started wondering if it wouldn’t be such a bad thing if she didn’t show up at all. That would mean rescheduling our training, but I didn’t mind.I could just sit here, enjoying the company of my books and the

ELLAI woke up the next morning feeling out of sorts. Lyla said it was normal, as this was the first time I was really exercising my limbs, and if I kept up with the training sessions, I would feel a lot better in no time.But right now, that felt like something she only said to make me feel better and convince me to keep training.The pain in my arms and legs made me want to opt out and never go back. But there was no chickening out of this. I had started it, and I wanted to see it through.I forced myself to sit up despite the pain and looked out the window as the sun’s rays streamed into the room. It was Saturday, and I was relieved that I didn’t have to walk around the hallways or sit through classes while my body ached in places I didn’t even think could hurt.I had a few chores to do around the house before I could have breakfast, then nothing else to occupy me except reading or lying in bed, lost in a million thoughts. I would’ve taken a walk, but in this state, I needed to sav

ELLAAs Lyla walked away, I realized she had said she’d see me at school on Monday rather than tomorrow. That probably meant we wouldn’t be training.I resisted the urge to call out to her and ask if training was off the schedule, deciding instead that I’d just come here on my own - either to train or to read a book.The spot she had picked for our sessions was beautiful. The sound of water crashing against the rocks as it cascaded down was refreshing, and I didn’t mind spending some time alone here.I turned toward the waterfall, watching the sunlight reflect off the flowing water, and knew this place would soon become my new favorite spot.I sat down for a few minutes, savoring the serenity in front of me. It had been a long time since I’d felt this kind of internal peace, and I wanted to cherish it as much as possible.Whether or not Lyla was with me, I decided I would come here as often as I could - to train, to think, to simply be.I had no friends to visit, no weekend sleepovers

KADEThese meetings bored me.Every time we gathered, the elders droned on about the same ten agenda items, the seers issued vague warnings about impending peril that never seemed to come, and we were reminded - yet again - of our duties as alphas in training.It was a tedious cycle, and I had long stopped expecting anything interesting to happen.Not that there was much to do anyway. The pack knew better than to challenge the authority above them, so compliance was the norm. Everything ran like clockwork, predictable and dull.My mind started drifting, wondering what else I could be doing with my time instead of sitting here, listening to the same old nonsense.I let my gaze sweep over the gathered wolves. Some had come in their wolf forms, others in their human ones, but communication was open to all.They could voice their opinions if they wanted - though most of them never did. They were content with being led rather than thinking for themselves.At least, that’s what I thought.T

LUCIANI refused to let myself be bothered by the way the pack meeting was unfolding.I had come here expecting a straightforward process: the elders would ask if anyone wanted to challenge my right to lead - there would be silence, and then they would move on to the next phase of the meeting.Instead, things had taken an unexpected turn. Not that it mattered.People had a right to voice their opinions; I had the right to decide they were irrelevant. At the end of the day, I was still in charge. Nothing anyone said or did could change that.It was simple, really. I was next in line. If anyone wanted to challenge that, they’d have to face me in combat. I scanned the group stirring up division and chuckled. A handful of betas and mixed omegas, none of them stood a chance against me.If I wanted to make a statement, all I had to do was shift into my wolf form right here in the middle of the meeting. That alone would be enough to send them into submission, to remind them exactly who they

ELLAThe feeling that hit me the day I stepped out to get groceries hadn’t gone anywhere, which put me in a permanently foul mood.On my way to school, I walked past some students who were talking in low tones about something, but I didn’t bother to find out what the topic was. On a normal day, I didn’t speak to them, and I wouldn’t try now that I was in a terrible mood.Whatever it was, I would hear about it when I got to school, or Lyla would meet me at the gate and give me all the details.She was a cheerleader. Nothing went past her eyes and ears around these parts. If anything, her teammates were part of the grapevine that spread gossip around the school, so she was definitely going to be the first to hear any juicy information from the correct source.In all honesty, I wasn’t particularly interested in knowing any gossip or learning about anything anyone had said, would say, or had to say. I simply wanted this feeling that constantly tugged at me to be gone.It was worse than th

ELLASeeing Lucian had surprised me, but I wasn’t going to show it. He didn’t need to know that he had that kind of effect on me.Honestly, I had expected to see one of the rogue wolves the elders spoke about, and I was ready to try out everything I had learned while training with Lyla. But his presence threw me off balance.He didn’t need to know that, and I certainly wasn’t going to let it show on my face. I turned away for a moment to regain my composure.When I was certain I was in a better frame of mind to respond, I turned back to meet his gaze.“What are you doing here?” I asked.He squinted at me.“You heard me the first time,” came the reply, and I shrugged.“I’ve decided to ignore whatever it was you said and focus on getting you out of here,” I answered, folding my arms.He looked around, and I could see that even he appreciated how beautiful the scenery was, although he said nothing to that effect. He shifted his gaze back to me and sneered.“Were you doing what I think yo

Ella“I’m sorry I didn’t pay attention the first time you mentioned this. I dismissed it as a regular dream or something that was occurring because of fatigue. That must’ve made you feel terrible. Please forgive me,” he said, and I felt my heart race in my chest.This was the first time anyone had apologized for making me feel like my thoughts and experiences were disregarded, and I didn’t know how to deal with it.I would have never expected an apology, let alone from him, but it felt refreshing to know there were people in the world who didn’t shy away from accountability. I squeezed his hand and nudged him playfully.“It’s okay. When you said it, I considered that fatigue must’ve been an underlying factor too. It was a new experience for me as well. I don’t know one person or wolf who has gone through anything like this. It only makes sense that you thought about that first.”I was trying to reassure him that everything was fine, but at the same time, I was trying to reassure mysel

ELLAI started hoping that I wouldn’t have to encounter being in Kade’s mind once more, but as soon as the thought crossed my mind, I heard a loud whistling sound, and my vision split in two.It happened faster than I anticipated, but I soon realized that I was no longer looking at just the stream.I could see the waterfall back home, and a feeling of dread enveloped me when I realized I was in Kade’s mind, and he was standing in the clear area where Lyla and I had our training sessions.I swallowed and tried to be as subtle as possible, but in a few minutes, I realized that he had caught onto what was happening.“I know it’s you,” he said, and a chill ran up my spine.I felt annoyed that even with the distance between us, he still had that effect on me, and didn’t bother to hide my irritation.“I wish I had connected with someone else,” I answered. The irritation I felt was evident in my tone, and I hoped he had caught onto it. “I was looking forward to talking to someone that is act

ELLA“Hi, good morning,” Quincy said as he stepped into the room. I was on my way to the bathroom, but he had a cheery expression and a swing in his step that made me stop and look at him suspiciously.I internally chuckled at the fact that he would never have guessed that just a few minutes ago, I thought he had picked up his things and left without me.Just how traumatized was I that my first thought leaned into the worst possible outcome? It was as hilarious as it was pathetic.I would have to reprogram my mind to see the good in things, but right now, that was far from happening anytime soon.“Hey you, for someone who has missed their flight, you look too happy,” I said and turned around to face him completely.“Well, I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?”“The bad news. That way I can get it out of the way and appreciate the good news better.”“Fair enough. Well, bad news—our trip got rescheduled. Something about a road being fixed and buses currentl

ELLAAt this point, I was happy I hadn’t told him about the conversation between Kade and the group.He would probably have a basic explanation for that or say I was thinking about going back to the twins, and that was why my mind was playing tricks on me—finding ways to convince me to go through with this new thought. It felt unfair to make such conclusions, but then he had taken my experience and made light of it. I didn’t know what to think anymore.“Let’s go to bed. Tomorrow you’ll wake up, and you’ll see that everything feels so much better,” he said and tapped the empty space beside him. I shook my head and walked toward the bathroom.“I need to take a long bath, and I need some time to myself. I spent the last few hours outside. I think I need to soak up.”He nodded, then closed his eyes. “If you need anything, all you have to do is wake me up, and I’ll make sure you get it. And oh, your food is on the table.”As he spoke, I glanced at the table and saw the dish covered. I didn

ELLAI heaved a sigh of relief, stemming from the fact that he hadn’t completely realized what was going on. But the fact that he had his suspicions made me uneasy.I also had to deal with the reality that I was somehow involved in all this. It would only take one person— someone who knew about the knives and the inscription, to go into my house looking for me or any traces of why I had left, and they would start connecting dots that didn’t even exist.I inhaled and exhaled, trying to steady my nerves. This wasn’t the time to panic—that would solve nothing.I had to think this through and figure out what to do with this information and this newfound ability.Once more, I was right back where I started at the beginning of this trip: wishing Lyla was here with me.It was a terrible time to be thinking about something like that. I’d gone down that road a couple of times during this trip, but I couldn’t help the feeling.I wasn’t sure if I would tell her the entire story, because that wou

ELLAThis new revelation seemed to throw Kade off balance. He clearly wasn’t expecting their helper to be someone within his social sphere, nor did he think there were any other alphas around the area.And this confirmed one thing for me as well: the group he was speaking to weren’t from our pack—or at least not all of them. If they were, their loyalty would lie solely with the person speaking to them and his twin.Their devotion to someone else, strong enough to keep a secret of that magnitude, was a clear indication that something else was at play here.“An alpha?” Kade said, disbelief evident in his tone. “Why would an alpha help you?”“They had… well, they had similar goals, and when they found out we wanted information on the victim, they gave it readily.”“And your excuse for not killing them?”A pause swept through the group, and they shook their heads in unison. I could tell they were all thinking the same thing.“You might be an alpha and we might be mercenaries, but we know

ELLAThe conversation clearly wasn’t going as expected for any of the parties involved, but I was determined to see it through to the end, so I listened attentively.“So you saw blood, saw a weapon, and decided that he was still alive at some point—and your initial thought was blackmail?”“Yes. We had no reason to believe any harm had come to him. His shack was in an organized state when we arrived, and our informant had seen him earlier that day, hale and hearty, planning something fun with his buddies.”“You thought their idea of fun included spilling blood?”“Fun can be anything for anyone. We were focused on carrying out the assignment you gave us, not trying to put two and two together.”“That’s very clear. I should’ve found smarter people to get this done. So humor me—what did you do after?”“We contacted the person who had given us the information about his whereabouts and asked if he had seen the victim again after the first sighting. He admitted he hadn’t come across him sinc

ELLAPerhaps watching the entire procession would help me understand what I was dealing with. I had never experienced anything like this before.I wasn’t sure how to navigate this new ability—there were no seers to ask, no council of elders to tell me how to channel this power or even what to call it—but the thrill of encountering something unknown piqued my curiosity.It was fascinating to discover that I could tap into the mind of another wolf, but whose thoughts had I ventured into? There was only one way to find out, so I steadied my nerves and decided to observe.The whole thing was surreal—I had gone from being annoyed and irritated by everything around me to trying to unravel what I had just unlocked. If there had been a memo about this happening, I had clearly missed it.I focused on the events unfolding on the other side. Whoever this was, they were in a meeting with other werewolves. But it wasn’t a regular pack meeting—it felt more like something arranged in secrecy. And wh

ELLAWhen I got to the end of the lot, I stopped walking and peered at the trees for a bit, trying to see if that was all there was.But I soon discovered that there was a clear path in the middle of them, and that only meant one thing—there was more than just trees waiting beyond this path, and I needed to get to it as soon as possible.But first, I had to make sure Quincy knew I was alright. If I just wandered off, he would end up worried and start searching for me.I wasn’t interested in explaining that I needed some time to myself, so the best thing was to make that clear right away.I walked back to the motel and met him at the door.“I was about to come get you,” he said with a smile.I tried to mirror his expression, but it felt too warm and cheery—a far cry from what I was feeling. I couldn’t bring myself to pretend, so I let it go.“Likewise,” I replied as calmly as I could and walked past him into the reception area. “Are the rooms ready?”“Yes, come, I’ll show you how to ge
