Viola stood in the living room with her arms folded, watching Seth from across the room. He was seated on the edge of the couch, jacket tossed over the armrest, tie loosened. His shoulders were hunched while his phone lay on the coffee table.

She had been watching him for weeks now. She saw how he came home late, how he seemed to drift even when sitting right beside her, and how his eyes got lost somewhere far away when he thought no one noticed.

She had been holding off on speaking to him about it, but tonight, she couldn’t hold back anymore.

“You’re always somewhere else even when you’re sitting right here.” She said suddenly, going to stand in front of Seth.

“What?” Seth lifted his eyes, suddenly remembering where he was and trying to recall what she said.

“See? You’re right here, but you’re not with me.” Viola said, moving closer, Her voice remained low, but it cracked with pain. “You’ve been like this for weeks!”

He opened his mouth to speak, but then shut it without saying a wor

  • Rejected But Wanted By The Alpha King   Chapter 97

    The day for the council meeting dawned early and bright. Rashel had prepared for Scepter’s presentation, which she was giving on behalf of the company. They had done a Demo-Rashel, Jethro, and Milla-and they all agreed it was good enough to be shared with the council and its members.The past few weeks had been relatively peaceful, so there was no need to take Kael along. In any case, he was safer in the fortress than anywhere near the council building, where there were people who could be potential enemies of Jethro and Rashel.Jethro was ready and waiting by the car when Rashel emerged from the house. She wore a navy-blue suit and a pair of white tailored pants. Her hair was pulled back into a ponytail, making her normally high cheekbones more pronounced.Jethro smiled the moment he saw her and held the door open for her as she approached the SUV.“You look amazing.” He whispered as she passed him. Rashel stopped in her tracks and turn

    Rashel had been in her office for hours with Milla and Jethro. They had been working on a presentation meant to be delivered at the council meeting in three days. Milla was in charge of gathering all the data they needed; Rashel organized them and forwarded them to Jethro to verify first and then upload them to the council’s database.All presentations were to be uploaded to the database by the pack’s Alpha at least a day before the summit. They had been working round the clock to ensure that they kept to the rules to avoid any penalties.“Commander, this is everything we need,” Milla said as she sent the final batch of files to Rashel.Rashel took a moment to carefully observe them; she opened

    When Seth returned home, Viola was still awake. She was lying in bed but awake. She wanted to take the potion before he returned, but for some reason, she changed her mind, and for good reason.When Seth got in, she noticed he was pissed because he didn’t take his time to carefully shut the door since she was supposedly asleep already. Instead, he banged the door behind him and huffed and puffed as he took off his boots and threw them to the far side of his room, as opposed to carefully setting them on the shoe rack like he usually did.She had no idea what could have pissed him off so much, but she had no plans to be part of it. So, Viola shut her eyes and willed herself to sleep. She would commence her operations in the morning.***

    The city of Denver never truly slept. Even past midnight, the skyline still shimmered as the tall glass buildings blinked with lights, creating an illusion of tiny stars. Cars still sped past the café where she sat. She guessed the occupants were young people, probably on their way to a party, or even coming back from one. To be young and free—some part of her missed that life.But in this corner café where she sat, it was the opposite. It was warm and slow and felt old and worn. Like the people in here had all gone through fire and come out with scars.Slow jazz music sifted through the air, creating ambience with the fairy lights overhead and on some parts of the wall.Her fingers curled around the cup of hot chocolate in her hand, her m

    The highway stretched for hours as Viola drove through the night, hurrying in a bid to make it to her destination while the full moon still shone and then back home by morning. No one knew where she was going. Seth wasn’t around when she left, and she hadn’t left a message in case he returned. She was going into the far South to find the moon goddess.She hadn’t even told Merikh where she was going, and she didn’t plan for him to find out at all.She wanted to do this without his interference or even his knowledge, because this was her game plan. Merikh was expecting her to start going for the kill now that Seth had developed an infatuation for Rashel, but she wasn’t going to do that. If she helped Merikh to become Alpha, then his wife, Kira, would be his Luna and not her. And she knew that after he got what he wanted, Merikh would discard her like used goods. So, she was going to do all it took to help Seth remain Alpha for as long as she

    The late morning breeze was clean and fresh. Summer was just passing by, and the heat with it, so it was the type of air that always felt light in your lungs and lifted your spirits.Rashel sat on her favorite park bench. It was the same one she had sat on the first day she brought Kael to the park, and the same one she has continued to sit on since then.She remembered the first day she brought him here, how excited he was, and how his little legs wobbled as he learned to walk and stand for long periods. But today, he ran ahead on the winding park path, his tiny boots crunching through fallen leaves, squealing as pigeons exploded into the air around him. He giggled with every flutter and turned to look at Charlene before running to meet the other kids up ahead.Rashel smiled as she sipped from the Styrofoam cup containing coffee. This park had become a part of their routine now. Just Charlene and the two of them bonding, and she watching Kael grow without the i
