LEVI'S POV

Rowan had beaten me nine times.

At this point, I was convinced he had completely forgotten that this was supposed to be a friendly game between a father and his son and not a championship final.

The field had been filled with his laughter for the last several minutes as he chased after the ball, and every time he scored, he celebrated like thousands of people were watching him.

By the time the tenth goal went in, I didn't even bother trying to pretend I had a chance. The ball rolled

  • RECLAIMING HIS REJECTED MATE    137

    BROOK'S POVI sat quietly on the edge of the bed, my hands resting limply in my lap as I stared at the blank TV screen I had turned off after the live broadcast had ended almost an hour ago.Levi had lied to me all this time.The realization refused to settle. It felt too enormous to fit inside my mind. I kept thinking that if I sat here long enough, it'd turn out to be a lie.But the silence in the room was real, the emptiness in my chest was real, and the truth I'd heard with my own ears was real.I thought back to every conversation we had about the White Wolves, every time I asked him questions and he would look me in the eyes and answer me without the slightest hesitation.That was what hurt the most.He had watched me believe that the white wolves had been monsters. He had watched me accept that they were traitors without ever giving me the chance to know who they truly were.All those moments when he'd held me, comforted me, and told me everything would be alright suddenly felt

    LEVI'S POVEvery instinct screamed at me to shut the interview down and walk out of the studio, but I knew I couldn't. The entire kingdom was watching this unfold live.If I refused now, people would take it as an admission of guilt before I ever spoke another word.There was only one option left.I would take the serum and fight it with everything I had. I didn't know exactly how powerful it was, but I had to believe I could hold on to my own mind long enough to keep the truth buried."If a new serum is what you want, then fine. Bring it in."The host looked relieved that the situation hadn't completely fallen apart.One of the crew members hurried out of the studio while the cameras continued rolling. I sat as still as I could, refusing to betray the turmoil inside me.Across the table, Dagon remained perfectly composed. He didn't look anxious or impatient. If anything, he looked completely certain of how this would end, and that quiet confidence irritated me more than any insult he

    LEVI'S POVThe drive to the media house felt much longer than it actually was.I sat quietly in the back seat of the car, my gaze fixed on the city passing beyond the tinted window while my fingers remained wrapped around the small vial inside my jacket pocket.The fake truth serum.I slowly let out a breath.This had to work. There was no other option.I had gone over the plan so many times that I could practically recite it without thinking. I'd take the serum, answer whatever questions were asked, and once everyone believed I'd spoken under the influence of the truth serum, the interview would be over.Everything would finally settle down. The pressure from the public would disappear. Most importantly, the truth would remain exactly where it belonged. Buried.I slipped my hand into my pocket again, feeling the smooth glass of the vial before withdrawing it.Just a little longer.The car finally slowed before coming to a stop outside the media studio.One of the guards opened the do

    LEVI'S POVWith her lips still on mine, Brook's hands gripped the damp fabric of my shirt, pulling me down, and I groaned into the kiss as my hands automatically found her waist to steady us.The kiss deepened instantly. Her tongue swept into my mouth, tangling with mine in a wet dance that sent a jolt straight to my dick. For a second, I let myself get lost in the taste of her on my lips."Brooks, wait," I pulled back, breathless and shaking my head slightly, while trying to catch my breath."I'm sweating buckets, I need to take a shower first."I expected her to wrinkle her nose, agree with me and push me toward the bathroom. Instead, a wicked glint sparked in her eyes. Her grip on my shirt tightened, and she yanked me back toward her with a surprising amount of force."Did that stop me from kissing you?" she challenged, her voice dropping an octave, vibrating against my chest.Before I could answer, she slammed her mouth on mine again. This time there was no hesitation, no holding

    LEVI'S POVThe sharp crack of our training sticks echoed through the palace courtyard as Theo and I continued sparring.The morning sun beat down on us, but neither of us slowed. Sweat trickled down the side of my face and clung to my skin beneath my training clothes, making it cling uncomfortably to my back.Every muscle in my body burned from the relentless pace we'd kept for the better part of an hour, and we hadn't taken it easy on the other.Theo swung toward my shoulder, and I blocked it before immediately countering with a quick strike aimed at his side. He twisted away just in time, bringing his own stick around to force me back.We had trained together for years, and it showed in the way we moved. Every attack was met with an equally quick defense, and every opening disappeared almost as soon as it appeared.Theo stepped in again, his stick cutting through the air toward me. I caught it, shoved it away, and struck back before he could recover. The impact forced him back a ste

    LEVI'S POVThe entire situation had only grown worse. That one interview had now become the only thing anyone seemed capable of talking about.Every news station, every newspaper, every social media platform was flooded with debates about the truth serum.Some people insisted Dagon was manipulating everyone, while others demanded that I honor his request if I truly had nothing to hide. The pressure mounted by the hour, closing in from every direction until it felt impossible to escape.I couldn't go anywhere without hearing about it.I couldn't open my phone without seeing thousands of opinions.I couldn't even turn on the television without another panel discussing whether I should publicly take the damn serum.It was suffocating.Seated in the lounge, Brooks and I had eventually given up trying to search for channels that were not discussing the matter at hand, and settled on a random television show instead.It wasn't particularly interesting, but at least it wasn't another debate
