Two days.

That’s how long it had been since Ronan walked out the door and didn’t come back.

Not a call. Not a message. Not even a whisper through the bond we once shared so easily.

I’d tried everything. The first night, I didn’t sleep. I sat curled up in his hoodie on the couch, phone clutched in my hand like a lifeline, waiting for it to ring. I called him twice, then five more times. Left voicemails I regretted the second I sent them. I sounded desperate.

Maybe I was.

On the second day, I stopped pretending I was fine. My throat still ached faintly from where his fingers had pressed too tightly, but that wasn’t the pain keeping me up. It was the silence. The fact that he left without looking back. And worse, that maybe he wasn’t coming back at all.

I wandered from room to room like a ghost. I couldn’t eat. I couldn’t train. I couldn’t focus.

I missed him.

God, I missed him.

Even after what he did.

Even after the flash of something unrecognizable in his eyes when anger had taken over

  • Rejected By Him; Claimed By His Crazy Brother   Chapter 34

    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

  • Rejected By Him; Claimed By His Crazy Brother   Chapter 33

    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

  • Rejected By Him; Claimed By His Crazy Brother   Chapter 32

    IXORAI should have known peace never lingers long.The morning after Ronan's quiet confession on the cabin ledge, I woke to the scent of smoke. Not thick, not overwhelming—but enough to set my nerves on fire. I stepped out barefoot, still in training clothes, and scanned the horizon. A thin coil of grey was curling up from beyond the hills."Ronan?" My voice cracked more than I meant it to.He appeared within seconds, fully dressed, already prepared. As if he had sensed it too."It came from the north woods," he said, voice clipped. "Same area the scouts last saw rogue movement."My chest tightened.I wasn’t ready. Not truly. I had been learning, testing, controlling—but not battling. Not confronting whatever this power inside me actually was.But Ronan looked at me, saw through me. "You're not alone. Remember that."I nodded. My fingers curled involuntarily. The air around me shifted, low and taut.FLORAThe rogue leader was more beast than man. Towering, pale scars crossing over hi

  • Rejected By Him; Claimed By His Crazy Brother   Chapter 31

    IXORAThe sky had turned a deeper shade of indigo, stars blinking to life above the trees like hesitant witnesses. I walked the edge of the forest, just past the training fields, my bare feet sinking into damp grass. Each breath felt heavier tonight. Not because of fear—but anticipation.I wasn’t sure if it was the council, or the murmurs of war clawing through the pack like a sickness, but everything in the air felt taut. Something was coming.The wind stirred again—reacting to me. It always did now. I lifted my hand and let the breeze curl around my fingers. Sometimes I thought I could hear it speak. Other times, it screamed.Ronan stood by the treeline, arms crossed, watching me like he always did. Not with worry, but with awe. I didn’t know how to carry that. I was just Ixora. The girl who once couldn’t even look herself in the mirror without wondering what was wrong with her. Now the council looked to me like some kind of savior, and that frightened me more than the rogues ever h

  • Rejected By Him; Claimed By His Crazy Brother   Chapter 30

    IXORAThe wind curled like a whisper against my cheek as I stepped out into the clearing. It had rained the night before, and the scent of wet earth filled the air—calming, grounding. I needed that. I needed something to remind me that the world was still rea, something that drawed me out of my thoughts , even after everything. My power still felt like a stranger inside me—dormant yet restless, clawing at the edges of my being like it was begging to be seen.Ronan watched me from across the field. There was a patience in his gaze, but also wariness. Like he didn’t quite know what version of me would surface.“You don’t have to push yourself,” he said softly.I tightened the strap of my training tunic. “I’m not pushing myself. I’m preparing.”He nodded, and we began again.It wasn’t physical strength I was struggling with—it was control. The way the air would still just slightly when I concentrated. How the ground would seem to thrum beneath my feet. I didn’t understand it, not ful

  • Rejected By Him; Claimed By His Crazy Brother   Chapter 29

    IXORA POVThe air crackled around me as I stepped into the field. Morning dew clung to the grass, and a soft mist curled around the trees like spirits still deciding whether to rise or rest. My heart was a thunderstorm, quiet for now but aching with the promise of rain.Power hummed beneath my skin—soft at first, like the purr of something wild waiting to bare its fangs. I flexed my fingers, and the wind shifted, as though answering a call I hadn’t consciously made.Ronan stood across from me, arms folded, eyes sharp. There was pride in his gaze, but also concern. He never said it, but I knew he feared I would burn too bright, too fast.“You sure about this?” he asked.I nodded, jaw set. “I need to know what I can do.”So we began. Again.Each step, each movement, felt like unlocking a door I hadn’t known was sealed. My senses expanded. The ground beneath me wasn’t just earth—it was memory. The wind wasn’t just air—it was thought. My power wasn’t just mine. It felt... ancient.I raise
