The Westhund pack continued to sing praise after praise while Luna Collette walked into her eldest son's room.

The first thing to notice was the smell of alcohol before she saw him curled on his side, already fast asleep.

Collette shook her head at the scene. Her son was wasted far too quickly and she wondered what pushed him to do that.

She had seen him among the crowd before he disappeared inside, leaving others celebrating. This wasn't like him at all. He was the kind to hold people togethe

  • Rejected For Another's Mate   117: The End: Whenever you're ready

    Months had passed since Lord Flame was defeated. Since the era of darkness finally came to an end. The lives of shifters were starting to feel normal again. Pack leaders were starting to relax again. Single shifters? They were finding their mates without difficulties and overall fertility was slowly rising again. Rogues' activities lessened as not one incident was reported since the last battle. Dolly was back to her parent's house, at Beta Grigor house and she was loving her mother's garden as she embraced her newly found love.She was no longer a nobody. Her former last name was no longer Noman as she was now a Beta’ daughter of one of the strongest packs in Petroit city.Occasionally, she would leave without her mother's notice to hang out and play cards with Dominik. While at it, she would sniff him, mumbling something about him smelling good.“You're taking advantage of me.” Dominik would complain but did nothing to push her away. She didn't really care about what he said or

    The following day, the guests departed back to Agal except for Selly and Malachi. Later that day, an envelope with Beta Grigor’s name arrived.He opened it and scanned the content with practiced calm.Aretha stood on his side, waiting, expecting and hoping for good. When the Beta finally lowered the document, his eyes were glassy with unshed tears. He faced Dolly whose heartbeat could be felt by everyone in the living room.Dolly took a shallow breath. It was time for the truth. Her truth. She could tell it from her gut.Everyone had been calling her by her new or more correctly an older name. Freya—it sounded strange to her but rolled with familiarity to everyone else. It was as if they were sure of it but to her, someone who grew up alone, she needed concrete proof. Something she believed in. Something backed by modern science. She dreaded the answer.“The DNA result—” Grigor paused,Dolly blinked.“It's positive.” He dropped the news and Dolly's eyes closed shut.“I am your fath

  • Rejected For Another's Mate   115: The coffins

    Alpha Lewis cleared his throat, subconsciously facing his mate, “What is it about Secretary Hugo?” “This is about the emergency meeting you requested.” The secretary said, “I have been trying to contact Alpha Flame since yesterday and I can't get hold of him.” “I believe that we can start without him.” “You don't understand. His phone has been ringing but no one is answering. This is not like him at all. I am worried he might have a problem.” Alpha Lewis carefully urged him to proceed as planned without fully disclosing the reasons before he ended the call. “They are going to have a hard time accepting that Flame was the enemy all along.” Selly commented knowingly. “They have no choice.” Replied Lewis. When the clock struck eight, a series of sleek SUVs moved through the thick forest and out of the Westhund pack territory into the highway. Alpha Lewis led the guests inside the Alpha’s Council hall. In an instant, the murmurs died. The air turned heavy with the different

    Malachi groaned, not liking the unwelcomed interruption. He broke the kiss and bit his lower lip as he took in her flushed face. There was a second knock and he reluctantly went to answer the door. Who the hell needed him in the dead of the night? Vernis moved behind the door with her hand on her beating chest. The last thing she wanted was to answer anyone about her presence in Malachi's room. He opened the door halfway and blocked the entrance. “What?” He asked Jordan with a flat tone. Jordan didn't answer and his sharp eyes stared onto his lips and eyes for a second longer. He seemed like he noticed something but decided not to ask. “Someone reported seeing the dragon king leave his room but somehow he is nowhere to be found. Have you seen him?” He asked. Malachi's eyebrow rose as he tried to cover Vernis’ presence with another question. “Dont you think it's too early to leave your mate unattended?” Jordan sighed, neglecting his words. “That man can not be fully trusted.”

    The figure stepped into the room before the door locked.“What do you want?” Malachi asked as he switched the bedside lamp on.The figure dropped the cloak casually and draped it over a stand revealing Veryl whose face looked solemn.“Are you still angry?” Veryl asked, his steps slow until he made himself comfortable on a two-sitter sofa.Malachi crossed his arms, his face serious when he said, “You lied to me, what did you expect? That I'd congratulate you for breaking a promise?”“I had no choice.” Veryl replied almost instantly. “We were young and foolish.”Malachi visibly shuddered, “You never meant to keep it from the beginning, did you?”Veryl crossed his legs, his demeanor casual and relaxed, “It's not my fault that I couldn't say goodbye. I really wanted to but time was against me. I hope we can forget the past and…”“There is no going back if that's what you came here for.” Malachi cut in, his tone resembling finality.Veryl sighed then stood up. He hesitated for a second bef

    King Veryl's face remained calm, his eyes remaining on Malachi's back as he closed the door behind him. Alpha Lewis felt the tension between them. Everyone felt it. The king of Horizenia seemed to have something personal against the vampire but none dared to ask. Minutes ticked by while they continued drinking and chatting about light topics when Selly and Jordan returned. “Did he fall asleep?” Asked the Priestess as she put her glass on the table. “Yes, Priestess.” Replied Selly. The old woman shook her head in pity, “Poor boy. He will get over it.” Or maybe not, Jordan thought. If there was one thing he wouldn't choose to relive then it was the moment when Selly didn't want anything to do with him anymore. He knew firsthand how hard it was to get over an irreplaceable mate although he wasn't sure how it would really play with Dominik. Aria was, after all, a demon. An impostor. And their bond was fake just like his was to her. “It's a fake bond. He should be able to snap out o

    The feeling of being connected to one's mate in more than one way was foreign to Jordan. It felt like pieces of a puzzle coming together. Unmatched peace. Laying next to her on their bed made of hay, he felt complete. Finally, the longing and feeling of not being a good enough werewolf was gone.W

    Jordan didn't waste, quickly he laid her flat on the ground as the heel of his palm sat on top of the other and started compressing her chest in hope to revive her weak pulse.“One, two, three…” He counted a couple more and bent down. Tilting her head, he pinched her nose ready to give her a breath

    The sound of whistling wind and nocturnal birds kept Jordan awake, well in a way.The truth was he couldn't sleep even if he wanted to. What if he slept and woke up to realize that it was all but a dream. There was simply no way he was closing his eyes, not when he, at last, had her in his arms. W

    Waking up in the arms of a man wasn't something that happened everyday. Well, at least not to her. She had gotten used to being the only person around, with her company being that of birds and animals that she turned to food when need arises. Nothing could have prepared her for that kind of surpri
