#Chapter 72 John was having Rachel watched
Art POV
Outside Bella & Rachel's Apartment
I could tell Wright had taken my advice the moment Rachel got out of the back of his sedan. Her smile was a mile wide and the gift bag at her side was the pretty yet discreet kind which came from an intimacy store. I idly thought about calling him to goad him into talking about it, but discarded the notion as soon as it passed through my mind.
No man deserved to be mocked for following good advice, especially not when the advice was related to women.
A part of me was amused I could deliver good advice regarding women.
My past relationships had all ended badly with my last one resulting in a curse I wasn't sure I could shake. Good luck was not the kind I had and sometimes there was no way to come back from a bad trip.
Some decisions couldn't be changed. I had learned all about regrets long before being cursed.
I caught a whiff of arousal on the wind as Rachel opened the door to her apartme

Nathan POV The Four Seasons "Who is watching Rachel?" I resisted the urge to grab Charlotte by her shoulders and shake the truth out of her only by focusing on maintaining my calm. The eerie feeling of being watched passed as suddenly as it had swept over me; I focused on Char's face to watch her features for any clues as to her meaning while waiting on my answers. Charlotte played the game as well as any Alpha. Better in some ways because males tended to underestimate their female counterparts in wolfen society. I didn't temper my expectations of anyone based on their gender. After all, the person who'd done the worst hurt to me in my life was a female. Rachel would have been kinder to me if she'd shot me with a silver bullet through the head rather than leave me with a gaping hole where my heart had been. "Father is only being cautious. She comes from bad stock, you know, so it's in our better interests to make

Tyler POVWright HouseI hadn't looked at the phone before answering the caller and, as such, Nathan Lewis's voice came as a surprise to me. I recoiled in my chair slightly as he snapped at me about some hypothetical men sent by my father to follow Rachel.I could believe my father would send men to follow Rachel. She was carrying my heir. Her value had gone up considerably due to her pregnancy alone. My father wouldn't let the fact she was my fated mate slide by either.John Wright was a master manipulator in both his business and his personal endeavors. I might be his son, but I wasn't special to him. He would use his skills on me the same as he would go at a business rival."Charlotte didn't know their names? Two of them?"I tried to recall who my father called on regularly to do what he called 'odd jobs.'I didn't approve of criminal enterprises of any kind so John rarely brought those types of associates into my direct sphere of
Rejected My Alpha Mate #Chapter 75 He's an animal in bed
Rachel POVBella & Rachel's ApartmentTime flew by until I only had about an hour before Nathan was going to show up for his overnight stay at the apartment. I stripped the bed in a hurry, glad I wasn't too pregnant yet for household tasks to be a bother. We only had two bedrooms in the apartment, so Nathan would have to take the bed I'd been using; the least I could do would be to ensure he had clean sheets to sleep on.I blushed thinking about how he might catch a hint of lingering arousal on my sheets if I let them remain. I had showered after getting back from Wright House, but just thinking about my time with Tyler was enough to make me weak in the knees. What had gotten into Tyler?I didn't know where the sudden urge to please me came from though I did wonder if it had anything to do with a certain Alpha Inspector.Come to that, I hadn't seen Art all day, but I had the feeling he was keeping close to me. I didn't know why I was comforted
Rejected My Alpha Mate #Chapter 76 Friendship
Rachel POVBella & Rachel's ApartmentI checked through the window to make sure it was Nathan before opening the door. He looked as good as ever, better even in his jeans and blue Henley which brought out the color of his eyes. I found myself blushing as I ushered him in."Come in, come in! I've changed the sheets on the bed for you. I'll be bunking with Bella tonight so you get to take my room."I went to the hall closet where I put the towels away. I kept up a steady stream of chatter to try to calm the flush in my face. Nathan would have no way of knowing what I'd been talking about with Bella only a minute before, but I was still embarrassed at even the thought of his finding out."Here's the towels if you want a shower tonight. I didn't move your suitcase. It's still by the table in the entryway. Do you want anything? A drink or something to eat?""I want you to breathe," Nathan offered, giving me a low chuckle as he touched my shou
Rejected My Alpha Mate #Chapter 77 Getting him a naughty gift
Rachel POVBella & Rachel's ApartmentTime seemed to have rolled back for all three of us as the evening wore on into the night.We watched a movie we had loved as teens and laughed at all the same jokes as if we hadn't heard them before a hundred times. We shared popcorn while complaining about how it was never as good at home as it was at the theater. We said our goodnights with hugs all around before parting ways in the living room, Nathan to my room with Bella and I going to hers."Tonight was fun. Do you think we could do this again after you get back from the boonies?"I tossed odd-shaped and sized throw pillows onto the hope chest at the foot of the bed. Bella turned the bed down while I finished clearing space for us to lie down. It felt almost as if we were acting out a scene from one of the movies we'd watched when we were young."I think we could. I do think you need to reconsider all these pillows. Didn't we mak
Rejected My Alpha Mate #Chapter 78 On the Road
Rachel POVOn the RoadBella made breakfast sandwiches for the road. She made enough for me, Nathan, and even Art. I wasn't sure what to expect for a trip with two Alphas though I was certainly grateful for the food to keep everyone busy in the beginning of the trip.We got off to a rocky start since Art insisted Nathan drive and I sit in the backseat. He pointed out it was safer for me to be in the back which settled Nate down. I was still surprised he had refused to drive. Who knew an Alpha Inspector would admit to not being able to do anything at all better than everyone else? Art was a strange one.Interstate traffic dropped off dramatically as we left the city. I lost track of time as the car sped up from a crawl to a steady cruising speed. I was happy to find out I had no motion sickness on the road. I hadn't been sure how pregnancy would affect me on a long trip."We have to stop for fuel in another few exits. Do you want anything when we ge
Rejected My Alpha Mate #Chapter 79 You're cursed?
Art POV Interstate Rest Stop We had covered a third of the distance to Moonglow Pack territory when we reached the most isolated rest stop I had been able to scout out on our route. "Stop at this rest area. Pull into a parking space. Don't get out." I knew the men following us worked for John Wright. I wasn't sure what their purpose was other than to annoy me and give me a grating headache as I tried to track them while also keeping up with our itinerary into enemy territory. They didn't appear to be much of a threat, but I was all too aware appearances could be deceiving. After all, it hadn't been a bulky Alpha who had cursed me and brought me low. I'd landed in my current circumstances courtesy of a tiny woman. Magic came in all shapes and sizes. Who knew what the pair behind us were capable of in a match? Plenty of animals fought back the most fiercely when they were cornered which was exactly what I was doing with them.
Rejected My Alpha Mate #Chapter 80 A much more vulnerable target
Nathan POVOn the Road"Cursed? You're cursed?"I had no idea what Art was talking about where telekinesis was concerned. I knew I'd never heard of wolves who could move things with their minds the way characters did in comic books. I also knew magic was something people might mention in passing, but no one really did it."Can we get a little more explanation on that, please?"Art snorted again -I was really starting to hate that sound- and shook his head, "No. Not a chance. Can't you crazy kids just keep yourselves busy for the rest of the trip? Daddy needs to take a nap."Faint lines of tension accentuated his eyes and mouth in a way I'd not seen before. I had a feeling he really did need a little bit to rest even if I had no idea how he'd mentally muscled those goons around in the parking lot."Sure, Dad. Can we play Twenty Questions?""How about the Quiet Game? Daddy has a headache."Rachel suddenly
