Chapter Twenty Five – A Different Face

Nina’s POV

The moment I entered my room, I closed the door behind me and leaned against it.

My heart was beating fast, I was really going.

For the first time in days, I was leaving the palace for something that had nothing to do with arguments, tears, or feeling unwanted.

I walked toward the mirror and stared at myself.

The girl staring back looked tired, too tired but I did not want to look like that today.

Slowly, I opened the small box of makeup sittin

  • Rejected By The Alpha I Made   The Space

    Chapter Fifty Eight – The Space Between UsNina’s POVI did not stay in that room long enough for anyone to see what was happening inside me.I did not argue.l, I did not shout, I did not ask him again why he was looking at me like that.Because something inside me already understood that no amount of questions would bring the answer I wanted, soI turned away.Slowly at first, careful efully.As though if I moved too quickly, something inside me would finally collapse completely and I would not be able to hold myself together at all.I could feel their eyes on my back as I left the room, but I did not look back.Not once, the palace corridors felt longer than usual, colder too.Every step I took sounded too loud in my ears, like I was walking inside someone else’s life instead of my own.I kept walking without knowing where I was going, I passed rooms without seeing them, I passed guards without hearing them, I passed voices without understanding a single word. All I could see was his

  • Rejected By The Alpha I Made   To See

    Chapter Fifty Six – What I Was Not Meant to SeeNina’s POVI did not plan to go back to his room so soon, but I could not stay away.After everything that had happened, after being thrown out like I meant nothing, after hearing people question my place in this pack and even my right to stand beside him, I needed to see him again just to remind myself that he was really awake.I kept telling myself that what happened earlier was only because he was confused.That waking up after so long must have been painful.That maybe he did not recognize me properly.That maybe things would be different if I tried again.So I went back.My steps were slow at first, then faster as I got closer, my hands tightening around the fabric of my dress as I tried to steady my breathing.My mind was still full of the elders’ voices, full of Nikolai’s words, full of everything they had said about me and the child, about power, about leadership, about things that felt too heavy for my body to carry alone.They

  • Rejected By The Alpha I Made   Now Him

    Chapter Fifty Six – Now HimNina’s POVBy the time I left the council hall, I was exhausted in a way that had nothing to do with my body.The elders had spent almost the entire meeting arguing about leadership, arguing about the future of the pack, arguing about things that should not have even been discussed while Tristan was still alive, and every word they spoke seemed to make me angrier than the last.I could still hear their voices in my head as I walked through the palace corridors.Some of them wanted Nikolai to take over immediately.Some of them acted as though Tristan had already been buried.Some of them looked at me like I was standing in the way of something they had already decided.The entire meeting felt like a battle I had walked into alone.For the first time since Tristan fell into that coma, I felt truly tired.Not physically but Emotionally.The kind of tiredness that settles inside a person and makes everything feel heavier.All I wanted was to get back to his r

  • Rejected By The Alpha I Made   The Wrong Person

    Chapter Fift Five – The Wrong PersonTristan’s POVThe first thing I became aware of was pain.Not the sharp kind that comes and goes quickly, but the kind that settles deep inside the body and refuses to leave, spreading through muscles, bones and even breathing itself until every attempt to move feels like a battle you are already losing.For a long time I remained trapped somewhere between sleep and consciousness, unable to tell how much time had passed or whether I was dreaming, because everything felt distant and unclear. Sometimes I thought I heard voices around me. Sometimes I thought somebody was speaking directly to me. Other times I was certain I heard crying.The strange part was that the crying always sounded familiar.No matter how many times it appeared, no matter how many times it faded away again, there was always something about it that made me want to follow the sound.I could never reach it.Every time I tried, darkness swallowed everything again.Then gradually the

  • Rejected By The Alpha I Made   You Cannot Take What Belongs To Him

    Chapter Fifty-Three– You Cannot Take What Belongs To HimNina’s POVI barely slept that night.Even after returning to Tristan’s room, even after sitting beside him for hours, even after crying until my eyes hurt, sleep refused to come properly.Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Nikolai and Alina standing together.Every time I tried to rest, I heard Nikolai’s voice again.If you cannot accept it, then leave the pack.The anger from that conversation had not left me.If anything, it had only grown stronger.By morning, I was sitting beside Tristan’s bed again, staring at his face while the sunlight slowly filled the room.He looked peaceful, too peaceful.As though none of the chaos outside these walls existed.I reached over and adjusted the blanket covering him.“You picked a terrible time to sleep,” I muttered quietly.A bitter smile appeared on my face.“Everyone is trying to steal your position while you are lying here doing absolutely nothing about it.”My eyes burned again. I

  • Rejected By The Alpha I Made   What I Heard

    Chapter Fifty Three – What I HeardNina’s POV“You, what are you hearing?”Nikolai’s voice came firsta and sharp, sharp enough to cut through the quiet air of the courtyard and freeze me in place before I could even think of moving, and for a moment my entire body reacted before my mind could catch up because I knew immediately that I had been noticed.My fingers tightened against the edge of the stone pillar as I slowly stepped out from where I had been hiding, my heart beating too fast at first, my breathing uneven in a way I could not control, but even as fear rose inside me, because I was already tired of hiding what I had heard and tired of pretending I did not understand what was happening around me.I looked at both of them properly now, standing there together like nothing about what I had just witnessed was wrong, like nothing about their closeness needed explanation, and I felt something inside me settle into certainty even if it hurt to accept it.“I heard it,” I said slowl
