Rejected By Him; Claimed By His Crazy Brother Chapter 38
IXORAI sat on the edge of the bed, hugging my knees to my chest as the cold morning light leaked through the curtains. My chest ached, hollowed out by the truth I hadn’t been ready for. I thought I’d cried all the tears I had left last night, but my pillow was still damp, and my eyes still stung.It wasn’t my fault.That truth should’ve been comforting, a balm to the years of guilt that had burrowed into my bones—but it wasn’t. Because now I knew whose fault it was.Chris.The name felt like poison. I kept repeating it to myself, trying to dull the sting, but it only made the wound sharper. He’d taken everything from me—my parents, my peace, my innocence. And the worst part?Ronan knew.That broke me more than the truth itself.I reached for the velvet pouch again—the one I’d found in the false bottom of the box last night. My mother’s ring glinted inside it, delicate and familiar. How long had he had this? How long had he known?The tears came again, soft at first, then violent. I p

IXORA POV Warmth. That was the first thing I registered when I woke up.My head ached faintly, but the warmth I felt was undeniable. Safe. Secure. Familiar. My fingers curled instinctively, brushing against the rough fabric of a chest I knew by heart. Ronan. His steady breathing against my neck pulled me deeper into that feeling of safety.For a moment, I just lay there, my body aching slightly, but my heart... calm. I remembered flashes of last night—the trap, the terror, Chris, the rogues. The searing pain in my leg. And then Ronan. Like a storm crashing through darkness, he came for me.I blinked back tears. I didn’t want to start the day crying, but gods, the emotions threatened to break through. I shifted slightly to face him, and as I moved, his arm tightened around me."You’re safe," he whispered, eyes still closed. "You’re mine."I smiled softly. "Always."His eyes opened slowly, and when they met mine, I saw it—the worry, the anger, the lingering fear. But also love. So much

(Ixora's POV)I knew something was off the second I read the note. The handwriting was rushed, the paper crumpled, and the message too vague—“Please come. Urgent. The eastern woods. We need your help.”But the guilt tripped me before my instincts could kick in. What if someone really needed help? What if another pack was under siege, or a rogue was cornering a pup? And what kind of person would I be if I didn’t at least check?So I slipped out the back door, heart pounding, senses on high alert. I didn’t tell Ronan. I didn’t tell anyone. That was my first mistake.The woods swallowed me whole. The moonlight barely reached through the thick canopy, and even though my wolf side itched beneath my skin, I kept walking in human form. My palms itched, my breath shallow. I called out once or twice. No response.And then he stepped out from behind a tree.Chris.I froze.He looked different. Gone was the pleading expression, the soft, broken gaze. His eyes were hard. Cold. Calculated. And som

IXORAI woke up with the sun filtering through the glass windows and crawling through my eyelids. I was too lazy to stand or open my eyes. Nothing moved, the morning was quiet. A certain stillness stung through the air, the stillness wrapped around me like a second skin, no birdsong, no rustling leaves. Just Ronan’s arm draped heavily over my waist, anchoring me to the bed. His chest rose and fell behind me in the slow rhythm of deep sleep.I didn’t move. I just watched the light trickle in through the window blinds, soft and golden. My mind was a storm beneath a calm surface. Even after the council meeting… even after showing them what I could do… the unease never left me. Like there was something bigger—something we couldn’t see yet.A memory flickered: the look on the Luna Council’s faces yesterday as I spoke. They didn’t mock. They didn’t scowl. They listened. And when I finished, one of them—the harshest one—nodded. Just once. But it was enough.Ronan had been still as stone besi

POV: IxoraI stood before the Luna Council once more.The air felt thicker than the first time. This time, I wasn’t just Ronan’s mate—dragged into a seat of power by proximity. This time, I was something else. Something more.My palms were warm, the thrum of my heartbeat loud in my ears, but I kept my spine straight. I remembered what Ronan said last night when I told him about the strange energy in my hands—the soft glow only I could summon. I expected him to brush it off. But instead, he’d watched me with reverence. And pride.“You’re not ordinary,” he’d said. “Not just strong. Unique.”Now, the Council watched me too.A long table. Seven Lunas. One Alpha King beside me. One truth glowing beneath my skin.“Ixora.” Luna Thalia’s voice cut across the silence. “We’ve all seen you. Heard whispers. But tonight, you requested to speak. So, speak.”I stepped forward.“I never asked for this,” I said quietly. “Not the bond with Ronan. Not the attention. And definitely not the war that’s bre

XORA POV The dream still clung to me like ash. Even with Ronan’s warmth pressed into my spine, the weight of it lingered—thick, oily, foreboding.I stirred under the covers. Moonlight spilled through the open window like silver ink across the sheets. The forest beyond was quiet. Too quiet.Ronan’s arm tightened around me instinctively, as if he could sense the unrest in my breath.“Another one?” he murmured, sleep lining the edges of his voice.I nodded, eyes fixed on the ceiling. “It felt real this time. More than before.”He shifted beside me, propping himself on one elbow. “What did you see?”I hesitated. Not because I didn’t remember—no, I remembered too well—but because saying it aloud would make it permanent.“There was blood,” I whispered. “Not just bodies. It was everywhere. And your face—Ronan, you weren’t breathing.”His jaw tensed, but his hand brushed my temple gently. “I’m here,” he said. “I’m breathing. You’re not losing me.”But I didn’t respond. Because deep inside, s
