Rejected By One, Claimed By Another The Secret Plan
Chapter 151 : The Secret Plan The moment Damon walked out of the room that morning, something within me broke. I was standing by the window, watching him walk away in the distance with his shoulders hunched and his head held high. He never turned around. Maybe he did not want me to see the fear in his eyes. Or maybe he did not want me to see the fear in mine. I curled my arms around myself, struggling to catch my breath. The pack house was too quiet, too silent. Each tick of the clock thundered in my ears. My heart wouldn't slow. I sat down. And stood up. Went to the window once more. My chest was a weight. What if something went wrong? What if Damon was harmed? What if— No, I whispered to myself. "I trust him. He'll come back. He has to come back." But that only made the fear worse. I could not stay here. I could not just sit and wait like some pathetic mate. I had to do something. At least be close. At least see him, even from afar. So I left. I wrapped a thick, b

Chapter Title: The Truth Always RisesDamon's POVThe battle ground was packed to the brim—wolves from different packs, elders, warriors, even the curious ones who'd come just to watch. The atmosphere was thick, not just with the scent of sweat and fur, but also with anticipation, judgment, fear, and secrets.I walked slowly ahead, my heart pounding slowly and steadily. My eyes scanned the crowd, but the only one I searched for… was Sophia's.She wasn't there.I had told her not to come. I had gazed into her eyes this morning and spoken to her, "Wait for me. I will come back to you with victory."She had nodded, crying. But now, alone among these wolves, I felt a sharp emptiness in my chest.Otto was already standing facing me. Tall, smug, self-assured. His warriors stood behind him like specters. But what made me stop in my tracks was the way his lips curved into a smile.That false smile.He raised his water jug and took a large, showy swig, proving to the world that he was new, mig

Chapter 143 : Carried by LoveDamon's POVSophia said yes.Her voice was soft, but it echoed in my heart like thunder.She looked up at me with those shining eyes, eyes brimming with trust, eyes brimming with love. And I knew—then and there—that this was the beginning of a new chapter. Not just for me. Not just for the pack. But for us.I didn't have her walk back.I scooped her up into my arms gently, like she was the most precious thing in the world—which she was. She gave a little gasping cry, laughing through tears on her face. "You don't need to carry me," she whispered."I want to," I said. "You've carried me through everything. Let me do this."Her arms around my neck, her head on my shoulder, I could feel her heart beating against my own. Slow. Steady. Safe.As we walked back along the quiet pathways of the pack, people saw us. Warriors. Elders. Children. They didn't cry out. They didn't cheer. They bowed. They stepped aside in silence, some smiling, some weeping. It wasn't a

Chapter 144: The Luna of My HeartDamon's POVThe morning sun struck the pack house walls, pouring in soft golden light. Everything was motionless—like the whole world had finally let out a deep breath. But my heart was full, beating harder than ever. Not with fear… but with something else.With love.Sophia slept, her form wrapped gently under the warm blanket. Her hair spilled onto the pillow like silk. She was serene, so serene, like an angel. I sat down on the bed and simply gazed at her for a while. After everything we had been through—the betrayal, the horror, the battle—I could not help but stare. I had nearly lost her. But she returned to me. She fought for me.I bent forward and swept a lock of her hair behind her ear. My fingers touched her skin, and she stirred, opening her eyes slowly."Damon." she whispered, voice still heavy with sleep."I'm here," I said softly. "Good morning, my Luna."Her eyes snapped fully open. "Luna?"I smiled. "Yes. That's what I'm going to be cal

Chapter 145: PleaDamon'sIt was finally quiet.After all of it—the battle, the betrayal, the lies—I was finally home with Sophia. We were sitting together in the sitting room. A soft breeze wafted through the open window. She was curled up beside me on the couch, her head resting on my chest. I put my arms around her, my hand softly brushing her hair.This peace… I did not realize how much I needed it until now.Sophia looked up at me with a small smile. I bent down and kissed her forehead. Her eyes closed, and for an instant, everything was all right.Then, a knock on the door.It was light at first. Then again. Louder.Sophia and I looked at each other with a confused expression."Who could that be?" she asked."I don't know," I grumbled, standing up.I walked over to the door and opened it.And there she was.Cara.Standing there, her clothes dirty, her face pale, and her belly swollen—she was pregnant. Very pregnant."Damon…" she whispered. Her eyes were red from crying. She look

Chapter One hundred and Fourty SixPlaying the Game - Cara’s POVThe room was eerily quiet, the kind of silence that hung heavy in the air. It wasn’t comfortable—nothing about this moment was. Damon sat across from me on the dark leather sofa, his posture tense, every muscle in his body radiating discomfort. Sophia sat beside him, her gaze darting nervously between me and Damon, her hands fidgeting in her lap.It wasn't easy to be here. For all the years I was with the pack, living their reality, there was still a distance between us. A wall built of betrayal, regret, and unspoken words. I knew they didn't want me here, that I was a reminder of everything that was wrong. But that didn't matter to me. What mattered was how this game was going to play out. They did not know it yet, but I had the power to choose what was going to happen next.Sophia coughed and broke the silence. She sounded soft, almost hesitant. "I've been thinking a lot," she told us, looking at Damon. "There's someth

Chapter 147 The Visit of the Elders Sophia's POV The sun was warm and golden, its gentle light pouring in through the tall windows of the pack house living room. I sat beside Damon, his hand casually on mine. Cara, as always, in the corner of the sofa, feigning to read a book, but her gaze flicked our way every now and then. It was the first time in days that everything was quiet, as if we were breathing peacefully after weeks of chaos. The soft knock on the door stilled the room. "Who's that?" I breathed, looking at Damon. He got up, his broad shoulders moving with stealthy ease, and opened the door. And then… I saw them. Three age-old men, dressed in rich earth-tinted robes, walked in. The minute they entered, the mood transformed. These were the Pack Elders—the dignified council governing tradition, law, and legacy. Damon dipped his head, and I got up, evidencing a humble inclination of the head. "Elder Mako, Elder Linna, Elder Barro," Damon greeted them. "What do we

"Yes. The pack needs an heir. It's custom. Alpha Damon has claimed his Luna… now it's time for the future to begin."I could feel all eyes on me. Damon's fingers curled beside mine.

The maids rushed forward, shocked to see her like this. I said nothing.No one needed to speak. They saw it on my face. They saw the danger in my silence.“Leave,” I told them.And they left.I laid Sophia gently on the bed, still holding her hand. Her lips were dry. Her eyes were barely open.

I was on the floor in the corner of the empty room, my arms sore from having them tied behind my back for so long. My ankles were scraped and bruised. The ground was hard. The air smelled of dust, mold, and old paint. It was the kind of place you leave people to be forgotten.But I wasn't forgotten.Not yet.I hadn't eaten for a day—maybe two days. My lips were dry.
