ONE REJECTION,TWO CLAIMS CHAPTER 14: APHRODISIAC TEA
Kayla The next few days that followed —after Hazel revealed that she was a wolf in sheep's clothing — was torturous.Lucian hasn't looked my way for the past week, he hasn't asked if I was okay or even how his so-called Luna on paper was fairing.Not that I was expecting it but still courtesy demands that he looks after his pack and I am a pack member.The night stretched on endlessly, my gaze wandering into nothing ,the darkness intensifying my sense of longing. Sleep was nowhere near me as I tossed and turned in my bed. I wanted to go to the his room, barge in and tell them to stop what the heartless torture they were doing to me.Suddenly a sharp pain in my belly made me gasp. Gripping my stomach, I collapsed to the ground, wondering what had truly occurred. I rushed to the bathroom and emptied all that I had eaten in the toilet.The pain subsided after a while. I lifted myself from the floor to rinse my mouth. When I looked in the mirror, I saw my face and realized that I was cry
ONE REJECTION,TWO CLAIMS CHAPTER 13: DEFENSELESS AGAINST A GHOST
Kayla The sound of fresh, hot food crashing into the wooden trash bin echoed through the silent kitchen like a slap to the face.The young kitchen boys didn't dare hesitate. Under Hazel’s casual command, they had grabbed the remaining pots and tipped them straight into the scraps, wasting hours of my hard work and leaving six injured men with plain water and dry hardtack. Mrs. Gable looked down at the floorboards, her shoulders tense, too frightened to utter a single word of protest.I knew she had a purpose for this circus and I wasn't going to give her that satisfaction.I didn't scream. I didn't reach for the daggers I used to carry at my waist. I just stood there, holding the empty wooden tray, watching the steam rise from the trash bin. My blood ran white-hot under my skin, but I kept my breathing slow, forced my hands to stay completely still, and locked my gaze onto Hazel.Hazel smoothed down the silk skirt of her cream gown, offering the room a quiet, delicate nod. "Thank you
ONE REJECTION,TWO CLAIMS CHAPTER 12: SECOND -CLASS LUNA
Kayla Hazel’s question to Lucian down in the drawing room didn't just hang in the air; it split the pack in two before the sun even set.Lucian hadn't answered her verbally in front of the elders. He hadn't needed to. The way he had wrapped his arm around Hazel’s waist and gently ushered her and their son back up to the master suite was answer enough for everyone in Ravenwood.By the next morning, the subtle shift in how the pack treated me turned into an open wall of cold indifference.I stood in the central hallway of the lower level at seven in the morning, holding a wooden clipboard with the weekly patrol shift assignments. For ten months, the guard captains had stood at attention right here, waiting for me to sign off on their rotations.Captain Gregory walked past me, his eyes glued to the floor."Captain Gregory," I called out, my voice crisp and steady. "I have the updated guard rotations for the eastern ridge. You need to double watch near the river."Gregory stopped, but he
ONE REJECTION,TWO CLAIMS CHAPTER 11: THE CHILD CLAIM
LucianI didn't stay to watch Kayla walk away after telling her to vacate the master bedroom. I couldn't. Looking into her quiet, dark eyes made a sharp, uncomfortable knot tie itself in the pit of my stomach, but I forcefully smoothed it over. Hazel was back. That was the only reality that mattered.By noon, Doctor Evans had cleared Hazel to be moved.I carried her upstairs myself, wrapping her in a thick cashmere blanket. When I pushed open the double doors of the master suite, the room smelled faintly of clean linen and cedar. Kayla’s scent—that quiet, subtle trace of rain and oak—was completely gone, scrubbed away by the servants in a matter of hours. All of her clothes, her books, and her personal items had been moved down the hall to a smaller guest room in the west wing.I laid Hazel down on the massive four-poster bed. She looked so tiny against the white pillows, her pale skin contrasting sharply with her long brown hair."Lucian..." she whispered softly, her green eyes flut
ONE REJECTION,TWO CLAIMS CHAPTER 10:PUSHED TO THE EDGE
Lucian's POV "Clear the bed! Get the oxygen ready!" Doctor Evans screamed as the heavy double doors of the medical wing slammed open.I didn't let the nurses touch her. I carried Hazel straight into the trauma room myself, my boots leaving wet, bloody tracks across the white linoleum floor. My arms were locked tight around her small body, shaking so hard I could barely stand straight."Alpha, please step back," Doctor Evans urged, his hands hovering over Hazel's pale, bloody form as I gently laid her down on the high hospital bed. "We need room to cut away her clothes and inspect the deep wounds.""I am not leaving her," I growled, my wolf roaring under my skin. The thought of stepping even three feet away from her made my chest tighten until I couldn't breathe. Two years. Two whole years of living in hell, believing her bones were rotting in some dark ditch. I was never letting go again."Lucian, let them work," a soft, trembling voice came from behind me.I spun around.Kayla was s
ONE REJECTION,TWO CLAIMS CHAPTER 9:THE GHOST RETURNS
Lucian's POV The sirens didn't just ring through the house; they hit my chest like a physical blow, vibrating right through the stone floorboards beneath my boots.I was already at the edge of the second-floor balcony when the massive oak front doors groaned under the force of guards throwing them open. My wolf surged under my skin, claws threatening to burst from my knuckles. For ten long months, I had ruled this territory like a stone wall. I was calm. I was cold. I was the Alpha who felt nothing, who calculated every trade route and signed every ledger without a single trace of emotion.But those sirens meant only one thing: an absolute breach at the inner perimeter."Alpha!" Cole yelled from the lower floor, his heavy boots skittering across the polished floorboards. He was sprinting toward the main courtyard, his sword drawn, his face twisted in a look of sheer, unadulterated panic. "Clear the foyer! Move!" My Bata barked.I didn't use the stairs. I leapt straight over the wood
