My heart slammed so violently against my ribs that it almost hurt.

The stranger stood a few feet away from me, calm and composed, as though he had not just spoken words capable of shattering my entire world.

His silver eyes remained fixed on mine.

Unwavering.

Patient.

Dangerously observant.

A faint smile lingered on his lips as he asked the question that made every drop of blood in my body turn cold.

"What was it like... dying?"

The bookstore fell silent.

Not ordinary silence.

    My heart slammed so violently against my ribs that it almost hurt.The stranger stood a few feet away from me, calm and composed, as though he had not just spoken words capable of shattering my entire world.His silver eyes remained fixed on mine.Unwavering.Patient.Dangerously observant.A faint smile lingered on his lips as he asked the question that made every drop of blood in my body turn cold."What was it like... dying?"The bookstore fell silent.Not ordinary silence.Not the peaceful quiet that belonged among shelves of old books.This silence felt alive.Heavy.Suffocating.The elderly shopkeeper looked seconds away from collapsing where he stood.His face had turned completely white.His hands trembled uncontrollably.But I barely noticed him.My attention remained locked on the stranger.Because somehow, impossibly, he knew.He knew something he should never know.The memory of the wolfbane dagger flashed through my mind.The unbearable agony.The poison burning through m

  • Rejected To Death, Chased By My Alpha After Rebirth   Chapter 4: The Message

    My heart nearly stopped beating.The black note trembled violently between my fingers as I stared at the three words written across the paper.THEY KILLED YOU.The room seemed to tilt around me.My mouth went dry.My pulse thundered inside my ears so loudly that it drowned out every other sound.Those words.That handwriting.That horrible feeling crawling beneath my skin.I had seen this before.Not in this life.In the other one.In the life that ended with a wolfbane dagger buried in my chest and my blood staining the healer's floor.A chill raced down my spine.Then I remembered the silver eyes watching me from the forest.The figure standing beyond the manor walls.Watching.Waiting.Knowing.I rushed toward the window.The curtains flew open beneath my trembling hands.Moonlight spilled across the forest.Trees swayed gently beneath the night breeze.Shadows danced between the branches.But there was nobody there.Nothing.The figure had vanished.Yet I knew what I had seen.Som

  • Rejected To Death, Chased By My Alpha After Rebirth   Chapter 3: I Don't Want You Anymore

    The entire pack square fell into stunned silence.Not the ordinary kind of silence that followed an unexpected announcement.This was the kind of silence that came before chaos.The kind that made hundreds of people forget how to breathe.The kind that warned everyone that something irreversible had just happened.I stood in the center of the ceremonial platform, surrounded by hundreds of pack members whose shocked eyes were fixed entirely on me.Warriors stood frozen in place.Elders stared in disbelief.Families whispered among themselves.Servants looked ready to collapse.Every person gathered in Moonfang territory had come to witness the mating ceremony between the future Alpha and his fated mate.Everyone expected a celebration.No one expected a rejection.Least of all Damian Blackwood.Across from me stood the man who had once been the center of my universe.Tall.Powerful.Untouchable.The future Alpha of Moonfang.My fated mate.The man I had died protecting.The man who had

  • Rejected To Death, Chased By My Alpha After Rebirth   Chapter 2: Back From The Dead

    My hands would not stop trembling.It had nothing to do with fear.Fear had died with me.What remained was rage.A deep, scorching fury that burned beneath my skin every time I remembered the last moments of my previous life.I stood motionless before the mirror in my bedroom, staring at the reflection of the girl looking back at me.Eighteen years old.Young.Healthy.Alive.There were no shadows beneath my eyes. No exhaustion carved into my face. No scars left behind by years of heartbreak and disappointment.The girl in the reflection still looked innocent.Still looked hopeful.Still looked like she believed in true love.A bitter laugh almost escaped me.That girl no longer existed.She had died on a healer's bed with a wolfbane dagger buried in her chest.She had died listening to the man she loved admit that he had never loved her at all.My fingers curled against the dressing table.The memory hit me again.I never loved her.The words echoed through my mind like a curse.My

  • Rejected To Death, Chased By My Alpha After Rebirth   Chapter 1: The Last Betrayal

    Pain was everywhere.It consumed me so completely that I could no longer tell where it began or where it ended. It flowed through my veins like molten fire, burning everything it touched and leaving nothing but agony behind. Every nerve in my body screamed as the wolfbane poison spread deeper into my bloodstream, destroying my wolf and tearing me apart from the inside out.The dagger was still lodged in my chest.Every breath felt impossible.Each inhale dragged sharp blades through my lungs, and every exhale carried away another piece of my life.Around me, healers rushed frantically from one side of the room to the other. Their voices blended together into a distant storm."Her heartbeat is weakening!""We need more silverleaf extract!""The poison is spreading too quickly!"Their panic should have frightened me.Instead, I felt strangely calm.Detached.As though I were already standing at the edge of death, watching everything happen from far away.The scent of blood filled the ro
