Chapter 38: THE ACCUSATION

The courtroom was cold.

Not the cold of winter, that at least could be fought with furs, fires and close body contacts. This was the cold of stone walls and stone hearts, of an angry alpha's aura, of men who'd decided the truth before they'd heard a single word of evidence.

Arden stood at the center of the room, flanked by Caden and Gaius. His hands clasped behind his back as he stared intently at the troublesome elders before him, his face was hard as a stone c

  • REJECTED AND REDEEMED    chapter 45: A DIFFERENT PERSON

    Chapter 45: A DIFFERENT PERSONHazel had never woken up faster.The moment her eyes opened, she was moving, throwing off the thick blanket off her body, ignoring the ache in her muscles, the heaviness in her bones. She jumped off the bed. Today was the day. Arden had promised they were going to rescue Piper. She was finally going to meet her best friend. She couldn't skip that chance, before something would happen or before Arden would change his mind.No more waiting. No more hiding.She threw open her closet, the small clothes the guards had left untorn, it no longer looked like the grand wardrobe of the Luna of such a great and big kingdom, one of the biggest among the four territories. She began tearing through it. She needed something tough. Something she could fight in.A pair of dark leather pants. A fitted tunic. A black canvas which fits perfectly.She dressed quickly, her fingers fumbling with the laces, her heart pounding so hard she could feel it in her throat which was al

  • REJECTED AND REDEEMED    chapter 44: CAUGHT SNEAKING

    Chapter 44: CAUGHT SNEAKING The fight started over a woman. Caden has been walking through the lower district, investigating supply lines and everything that had been brought into the kingdom for the past two weeks for arden, when the first punch was thrown. A drunk wolf, reeking of cheap ale and more cheaper decisions, he still didn't stop as he kept ordering and drinking more and when the owner of the shop refused to give him more, he started making awful comments about her. He did not know her mate sat down among them and said nothing and before he could realize a punch landed in his face as the mate had responded with his fist.By the time Caden arrived, a crowd had gathered, everyone cheering and hollering as the two men rolled through the mud, tearing at each other like animals, baring their canines at each other as their claws elongated, their eyes blood red but still maintained the human form. Technically, they were."Break it up!" Caden shouted, shoving his way through

  • REJECTED AND REDEEMED    chapter 43: HER BEAUTIFUL PRISON

    Chapter 43: HER BEAUTIFUL PRISON The bedchambers were not designed for prisoners.They were too beautiful for that.Gilded mirrors, silk curtains, a canopy bed that cost more than some pack workers earn in a year. But none of it mattered to hazel when the doors were barred from the outside and two guards stood watch day and night, spears crossed like a cage made of steel.Hazel sat on the edge of the bed, her knees drawn up,arms wrapped around them like that was the only thing holding her together. The room was warm, the hearth crackling with fire, but the cold was inside her. It sat behind her ribs, heavy and unmoving.When the door opened, she didn't look up.Because she knew who it was. None other than the man who had decided to turn against her, the man who couldn't even believe her, who couldn't give her the benefit of doubt.Arden's presence had weight. It filled the room before he even spoke, pressing against her skin like a storm about to break. His footsteps were quiet and d

  • REJECTED AND REDEEMED    FATHER AND DAUGHTER

    Chapter 42: FATHER AND DAUGHTER The bronze household smelled of cedar wood and old ambitions and old designs.Lyra sat across from her father, elder bronze, in his private study, a room filled with awards from his active warrior days, dusty scrolls, and the faded scent of cigars. A fire crackled in the hearth, casting long shadows across their faces.Bronze was smiling. It was not a kind smile but a fulfilled smile, a smile saying his plans had worked. "Did you see her face?" He asked, leaning back in his leather chair, swirling a glass of amber liquid. " When they dragged those documents out of her room? When they announced the treason charges? The confused, frustrated and downcast look. It's the best thing I have ever seen."Lyra's lips curved upward. " I saw it. She looked like a rabbit caught in a snare." "Good, she deserves all of it and even more." Bronze took a long sip, his eyes glinting over the rim. "That's exactly what she is. A rabbit playing wolf. A nobody playing qu

  • REJECTED AND REDEEMED    chapter 41: THE SEARCH BEGINS

    Chapter 41: THE SEARCH BEGINS The silk pillow was already soaked with tears.Tears of a woman who was accused of something she didn't do, why do people always hate her this much, is she really cursed? Hazel didn't care how much she had cried, she just kept crying because that was all she could do, six days from now she will be executed for something she knew nothing about.She pressed her face deeper into the fabric, muffling the sounds that clawed their way out of her throat, her voice had gone hoarse from excessive crying but still she wouldn't stop. Her shoulders shook violently, each breath a jagging knife slicing through her chest which already bled from the hatred and evil she received from this pack.Piper.That sweet girl, the only friend she had ever had in her entire life, if Piper was here none of this would be happening. They wouldn't have been able to sneak those things into her room. They wouldn't have been able to plant the false evidence. Piper would have seen them c

  • REJECTED AND REDEEMED    QUESTIONING

    Chapter 40: QUESTIONING The great hall had never felt this cold.Lights flickered along the stone walls, casting long shadows that danced across the faces of the gathered pack. Every elder sat at their respective chairs facing their alpha king. Bronze sat at the far end, his withered hands folded over the head of his cane, watching with the patience of a spider.Guards lined the walls, warriors filled the doorway, servants crowded the door outside, craning their necks for a better view.Hazel stood alone in the center of it all, as she bowed her head to avoid the judging gaze of the pack.No chair or table, nor shield, just her trembling in her day dress, her hands clasped in front of her so tightly that her knuckles had gone white.Arden sat at his throne, his hand tapping gently on the arm of his chair, his face unreadable. He had not looked at her since they entered. He stared straight ahead, at the empty air above her head, as if she were not there at all.Elder voss began."Sta
