Chapter 259 — Weaker

작가: Avery Monroe
last update 게시일: 2026-09-20 04:14:08

Hallie stayed beside Grant. Saevren’s answer had given the mate bond a variable no one in the room had expected: its strength could change.

She went straight to what mattered next, because weaker meant nothing until she understood what would actually change.

“What does weaker actually mean?”

Saevren’s attention settled on her, and he waited until Hallie had finished before answering.

“The involuntary responses lessen as the current los

  • Reborn After Rejection: I Chose the Alpha Everyone Feared   Chapter 295 — Not An Ultimatum

    Hallie kept her hand against Grant’s chest after the last words were gone.He was still afraid.She could feel it in the restraint of his body, in the way his arm stayed around her without tightening.For a while, neither of them moved. The quiet mattered. No slammed door.No retreat to separate rooms. No desperate attempt to make the uncertainty disappear through touch. Hallie lifted her head.“Grant.”His eyes opened.“There’s one thing I need to say before we let this settle.”Grant’s thumb stopped moving against her back.“Say it.”“I won’t make this decision under an emotional threat.”His arm loosened another fraction. Hallie kept her palm where it was.“I know you didn’t give me one.”“I didn’t.”“I know.”She drew a breath.“But I need us to be clear anyway. I will not turn this into ‘tell Saevren no or lose your husband.’”Grant’s expression hardened with something that looked more like pain than anger.“That isn’t what I want.”“I believe you.”“Hallie—”“I do.”She stepped

  • Reborn After Rejection: I Chose the Alpha Everyone Feared   Chapter 294 — Let Her Choose

    Grant knew Hallie had gone back to Saevren. He did not need his limited Vael senses to tell him.She returned after midday with the same controlled expression she wore when she had reached an answer to one question and discovered three more beneath it.Grant was sorting the reroute reports when Hallie found him. Everyone had made it through safely, and the fact had not settled him.Hallie stopped across from the table.“The route is clear again?”“For now.”She nodded. Grant waited. So did she.The silence stretched until he understood they were both trying not to turn the first sentence into a trap.He set the report down.“You talked to him.”“Yes.” Grant’s chest tightened.He had asked for truth. Now he had to survive receiving it.“About the offer?”“About whether the relationship is technically necessary.”Grant went still. Hallie did not soften the words.“It isn’t.”Something cold moved through him. He looked at the report instead of her.“So he could remove the bond without yo

  • Reborn After Rejection: I Chose the Alpha Everyone Feared   Chapter 293 — After The Road

    The rerouted group was safe.Hallie heard Caleb say it twice, and still waited until the written confirmation reached the table before she let herself believe him.Grant stood beside her while she read it.No one had been injured. No one had crossed the closed road. The travelers had made it through Everen and Cedar Draw safely without anyone promising more than they could protect.Hallie set the message down.“Good.”Grant nodded. The debrief ended there: one road closed, one reroute completed, everyone safe.Nothing about the morning required Hallie to answer Saevren.For part of the morning, urgency had made everything else seem stupidly complicated.There was a way to end the bond. Austin’s presence yesterday had reminded her how badly she wanted that. War pressure was already narrowing routes today.A clean answer had become dangerously attractive. Say yes. Remove one problem. Stop carrying it. Hallie hated the thought because she understood it.She had made too many permanent ch

  • Reborn After Rejection: I Chose the Alpha Everyone Feared   Chapter 292 — The Route Closes

    The message reached Cedar Draw before breakfast was finished. Hallie read it twice. One of the western roads still carrying protected travelers had been closed.The western road had not been attacked or broken; it had been closed because no one could still guarantee it.That distinction mattered less than Hallie wanted it to when a small group was already moving toward the closed section.“How far out?” she asked.Caleb leaned over the table and traced the road with one finger.“Close enough that sending them back would leave them exposed longer than moving them sideways.”Hallie looked at the alternatives.The safest road on paper was no longer the safest road in practice. Military movement farther out had changed what counted as predictable, even without an open attack.“Can we bring them across our eastern cut?”“Not directly.”“Why?”“Too slow from where they are.”Hallie shifted the map.“Then we don’t bring them directly.”Caleb looked at her. She pointed to the branch that angl

  • Reborn After Rejection: I Chose the Alpha Everyone Feared   Chapter 291 — The Full Vael Beside Her

    Austin knew Hallie was gone before he looked toward the door. The bond changed first.The pressure beating against him through the meeting shifted, stretching away without disappearing.He kept his eyes on the route papers while Grant finished gathering them.The agreement was settled. Bellamy Creek would hold its section of the safe-conduct route. Cedar Draw would hold its own.The route work should have occupied Austin. Hallie’s uneven tension through the bond kept intruding.It carried no words, only enough feeling to tell him something was happening beyond his sight.Austin set the report down and waited for the sensation to settle.Austin looked toward the open doorway. Saevren was no longer at the table. He had left after Hallie.Austin’s jaw tightened. Grant noticed. Of course he did.But he did not move toward the door.He folded one route page over another and said to the Bellamy Creek men, “We’re done here.”Austin waited until the others began filing out.Then he asked, “Yo

  • Reborn After Rejection: I Chose the Alpha Everyone Feared   Chapter 290 — I Can End That

    Hallie had almost reached the end of the hall when Saevren spoke behind her.“I can end that.”She stopped. For one second, the bond seemed to tighten in answer.Austin was still somewhere behind the closed door with Grant and the Bellamy Creek delegation. Close enough that Hallie could feel him without trying. Close enough that every few breaths her body supplied another reminder she had never requested.She turned. Saevren stood several feet away. Not close enough to touch.Close enough that she remembered exactly what he could do. Hallie’s anger had not cooled since leaving the meeting.“What did you see?”Saevren’s expression remained composed.“Enough.”“That isn’t an answer.”“I saw the current become stronger when Austin entered the room. I saw your body react before you wanted it to.”The bluntness hit harder than sympathy would have. Hallie folded her arms.“You make it sound simple.”“No.” His gaze stayed on her.“I said I can end it. I did not say ending it would be simple.
