It got worse unbelievably fast.

I had only been unconscious for two days, but Levi had barely done anything about the plague during that time. But because he had spent almost every second watching over me instead.

The most that happened was the investigation Theo carried out.

“We traced the origin of the plague to a poor healer that cured one of black pike’s children that developed severe rashes. A few days later, the child started showing symptoms of the plague.”

I frowned immediately. “So th

    BROOK'S POVThe adrenaline still hadn’t worn off even after showering and changing clothes. My mind kept replaying everything that happened in Black Pike over and over again so vividly that sitting still almost felt impossible.Every few seconds, I would remember the girl opening her eyes again or the way the crowd had suddenly started cheering instead of screaming at me, and the excitement would hit all over again.“I still can’t believe I actually did that,” I said, turning slightly toward Levi.The entire kingdom was treating me like a curse just a few days ago, and now everyone is out there praising me like I’m a hero.I laughed loudly as I settled on the sofa beside him.“I can't believe this!”One of the reporters currently on the television was interviewing people from Black Pike, and every single person they spoke to seemed determined to talk about me.I stared at the television in disbelief while curled comfortably against the sofa in Levi’s private living room. The atmospher

  • RECLAIMING HIS REJECTED MATE    59: Last Minute Save

    LEVI'S POVThe second the girl stopped moving, the entire room erupted.Her mother’s scream cut through everything first, sharp enough to make the crowd outside surge forward immediately. Panic spread through the building in seconds, turning ugly so fast it almost gave me whiplash.“You killed her!”The accusation rang out loudly, followed by several others at once.People started surging toward Brooks aggressively after that, panic and grief twisting the entire room into chaos so quickly. The only thing I cared about at that moment was getting them away from her.I moved in front of her instantly just as someone reached for her arm. I shoved the man back hard enough for him to stumble into the others behind him while Theo and the guards struggled to contain the crowd pushing forward from every direction.“Back away from her,” I warned coldly.But fear had already made them vicious.The shouting only grew louder around us, accusations flying from every side while people kept forcing t

A few days later, the child started showing symptoms of the plague.”I frowned immediately. “So the healer caused it?”“We don’t know yet,” Theo answered. “But we tracked her down, and she was already dead when we got there.”Levi rubbed a tired hand over his face, the exhaustion on him looking heavier now that there was no good news left to hold onto. Before either of us could say anything else, faint shouting suddenly drifted in from outside.At first it sounded distant, then it got louder and more voices joined in rapidly until the noise became impossible to ignore.Angry chants echoed be

  • RECLAIMING HIS REJECTED MATE    57: A Worsening Situation

    BROOK'S POVI expected pain the moment I opened my eyes. It was like my body was bracing itself for damage. But instead of pain, there was only warmth, and a clarity in my mind that didn’t match how badly I remembered things ending.For a moment, I tried shifting carefully to check for any pain, but nothing happened. No sharp ache. Nothing.Confusion slowly settled into me as I tried to understand why I didn’t feel broken, and why Levi was suddenly crowding my mind.His face. His voice. The way he looked at me. It was like my entire mind had wrapped itself around him.Before I could even try to sit up, Rowan suddenly threw himself at me.“Mommy!”His arms wrapped tightly around me, and I instinctively held him close, any chest ached with relief. He was crying against me, his small hands gripping my clothes like he was scared I would disappear again if he let go.“Why did you sleep for so long?” he asked through broken breaths, his voice shaking.My throat tightened immediately, and I

  • RECLAIMING HIS REJECTED MATE    56: You Need To Mark Her

    LEVI'S POVThe impact of the trailer slamming into us was violent enough to rattle my bones.One second Brooks was beside me, and the next, the trailer came crashing into the left side of the car with enough force to send us spinning across the road.Theo had partially transformed behind the wheel, forcing his wolf through just enough to reduce the full impact.The entire world tilted violently after the impact, metal screaming around us as the car was thrown off balance and the sound of the crash swallowed everything else.Smoke filled the air almost immediately, burning at my lungs, while a sharp ringing took over my ears and drowned out every other sound.For a second, I couldn’t process anything beyond the chaos.Then my gaze snapped to Brooks.“Brooks.”Her head had slumped against the seat, completely still, and the sight of blood running down her side hit me harder than the crash itself ever could. A sharp, immediate dread tightened in my chest and refused to loosen.I reached

  • RECLAIMING HIS REJECTED MATE    55: Ignore Her

    BROOK'S POV“What prophecy, Levi?”He didn’t answer me immediately, and the silence that followed felt heavier than anything Seraphina had said on television.I stared at him harder. “Levi.”“Ignore her.”That only irritated me more. “I’m not going to ignore my name being dragged in the mud like that.”He sighed tiredly before dragging a hand through his hair.“It’s nothing,” he muttered.“It clearly isn’t nothing if the entire kingdom knows about it and I don't.”His jaw tightened slightly. “Brooks—”“No.” I stepped closer to him. “Tell me the truth.”For a second, he just looked at me like he was debating whether to say anything at all. Then he finally exhaled heavily.“There was a prophecy shortly after we discovered we were mates,” he admitted quietly.I felt my chest tighten harder, and I just stared at him. For a second, I genuinely couldn’t process the words properly. Then everything suddenly started clicking together in the worst possible way.“Is that why you discarded me? B
