Chapter 10

Bella's POV

My eyes shot open the second I felt a bucket of freezing water thrown over me.

The cold struck like shards of ice piercing through my skin, soaking my thin clothes and sinking straight into my bones. I gasped sharply, my body jerking upright as I searched wildly for the person who had done it—only to see Kathy standing outside the cell, watching me without a flicker of remorse.

I released a long sigh of exhaustion.

I didn’t know when this was going to end.

  • Once Rejected, Now Claimed By The Lycan King   Chapter 112

    Bella's POVI gripped the knife so tightly my knuckles turned white, the blade steady in my hand as I stared at the faces before me. Jaxon’s eyes burned with fury, Peony looked like she might faint at any second, and my so-called parents stood there with that familiar mix of calculation and false righteousness. The air was thick with tension, the kind that made my wolf stir restlessly inside me, ready for blood if it came to that.For a long moment, no one moved. My heart hammered against my ribs, but not from fear. Not anymore. I had nothing left to lose. The old Bella—the one who cried and begged and hoped for mercy—was dead. This version of me? She would drag them to hell with her if she had to.“Put the knife down, Bella,” Jaxon growled, his Alpha aura flaring, trying to force submission. It washed over me like a weak breeze now. Pathetic. The Lycan King’s power had changed me in ways they couldn’t even begin to understand.I didn’t lower the blade. “Give me one good reason why I

    Jaxons POVI had been hiding behind the door for a long time now, waiting to hear what Bella had to say.The lies she was going to pour out and most especially, whether she was going to agree to our reason for being here.I had taken this chance because of that plan. There was no way she could back out because Moonstone Pack needed her.“What's there for you to tell us?" I asked as I pushed the door open, walking into their chambers without being invited.After all, I was the Alpha of Moonstone Pack and it was because of me they were here." Bella, what is it that you want to say now? You escaped from the pack and I didn't hold that against you nor muster my warriors to search for you…”I hadn't finished when Peony interrupted me immediately.“Of course, Jaxon. Everyone of us knows how she left the pack then. How she had been overcome with so much jealousy the night you took me as your Luna.”There was an urgency behind her voice that I could not ignore.Not even the way she seemed sc

    Bella's POV “What do you want?" I snapped at Peony the second Theorone left the room, as if giving us the permission to catch up as a family.I've never told him about my family and I do not think he is aware of what they did to me. It was understandable that he had left me behind with them, in the presence of vipers. Of traitors who had been quick to abandon their own because it best suited them."That's such a bad question to ask your family, Bella. Even if you don't like us, this family raised you. Shouldn't you be grateful for that at least?” Peony's soft voice came immediately after mine.It always sounded that way whenever she was in the presence of others. Whenever she was before our parents or Jaxon.Like the sinless saint. The daughter who could never do wrong and somehow, they all seemed to believe this illusion of hers."I have no time to waste. What do you all want to say to me?” I snapped once more.My father who stood by the side seemed to have some dignity in recalling

    Bella's POV “Of course I must visit, but since you're here now, isn't it the same thing? I've been busy all these while planning the good fortune of the North. As Luna of moonstone pack, you should understand that, shouldn't you?” I managed to whisper, staring at Peony, my eyes not even leaving her for a second.“Of course, yes,” she hurriedly said, almost too quickly, as though desperate to avoid the topic before it lingered any longer.Of course she would.I knew she wouldn't be able to manage the pack nor be able to think of managerial ways to even handle all I did for the pack. She would only try to escape it. She was that sort of person.The type who loved titles and attention, but not the responsibilities that came with them.“ This way, you should follow,” a guard said as he whisked his hand towards a direction.Theorone held my hand and began to follow immediately. The others were meant to follow us, but the way Theorone moved ahead made it obvious he didn't care whether they

    Bella's POV Ronan and his entourage climbed down from their carriage as they began to approach where I was standing.Beside me was Theorone, who stood with that strict face of his, one that no one could read no matter how hard they tried. Even I, who could sense a strange closeness with him, couldn’t decipher what he was feeling. I always wondered how others would be able to do so.Compared to how I felt, he seemed almost cheerful. As if he had invited the Moonstone pack for another reason… another reason he couldn’t tell, or wouldn’t explain.“Theorone!” Jason shouted as he climbed down and began walking toward where we stood, waiting to welcome them into the pack.He paused for a moment. Stared at Theorone with a look of disdain, his gaze dragging from his head to his toe in open insult.“Theorone. Or are you perhaps expecting me to call you King Theorone?” A hysterical laughter tore from his lips next—mocking, sharp, disrespectful, echoing louder than it should have in the cold ai

    BellaThe cold night air tore through my lungs as I dragged Theoreon across the clearing, every step sending sharp jolts of pain through my arms and shoulders. His weight pulled against me like an anchor, his body leaving a faint trail in the dirt behind us as I forced myself toward the thick bushe

The scent of blood hung thick in the air, metallic and suffocating, clinging to the walls and floor like an invisible fog. The bodies of the rogues lay scattered across
