Rose’s POV

The pain didn’t last long.

But the echo of it?

That stayed.

Like something had just… warned me.

Not hurt me.

Warned me.

I was still in Kael’s arms when it faded, my fingers gripping his shirt without even realizing it.

My breathing was uneven.

Too fast.

Too loud in my own ears.

“Rose.”

His voice was lower now.

Careful.

Like he didn’t want to trigger something again.

“I’m okay,” I said.

But it came out weak.

Not convincing.

Not even close.

His hands didn’t leave me.

Good.

Because I di

  • Rejected by my Alpha, Desired by the lycan king    Chapter 55

    Rose’s POVI didn’t like the silence.Not the one around us.The one inside me.It felt too quiet.Too still.Like something was watching and choosing not to speak.And somehow that was worse.I stayed close to Kael without thinking about it. My fingers were still wrapped around his shirt, like if I let go something would pull me away.He didn’t move either.Just stood there, steady, like he was waiting for the next thing to happen.Because it would.We both knew it.“You said I have to learn it,” I said quietly.My voice sounded tired.Not scared this time.Just tired.Kael nodded once.“Yes.”I swallowed.“How do I learn something that feels like it wants to take over me?”His eyes stayed on mine.“You stop running from it.”That answer irritated me.Because it sounded simple.And this was not simple.“It’s not that easy,” I said.“I know.”“Do you?” I pushed a little. “Because you’re not the one hearing another voice inside your head.”“I’ve seen worse.”That made me pause.Because

    Rose POVI couldn’t breathe right.Not because something was choking me.Because something felt… off.Wrong.Like my body didn’t belong to me anymore.In.Out.Too slow.Too heavy.I kept staring at my hands.They looked the same.Nothing different.But I could feel it.Under my skin.Moving.Not physically… but—God.I don’t even know how to explain it.“Rose.”Kael’s voice pulled me back.I blinked, realizing I had been staring at nothing for too long.“I’m fine,” I said quickly.Too quickly.Even I didn’t believe it.His eyes narrowed slightly.“You’re not.”I hated how sure he sounded.“I said I’m fine.”Silence.Thick.Uncomfortable.He didn’t argue… but he didn’t look away either.That was worse.Because it felt like he could see through me.Like he knew.About the voice.About the way something inside me felt… awake.I swallowed.“Why are you looking at me like that?” I asked.“Like what?”“Like I’m about to break.”A pause.Then—“Because you are.”My chest tightened.“I’m not

    Rose’s POVDarkness.Not the kind you close your eyes into.Not the kind that fades when you blink.This one stayed.Heavy.Endless.Alive.I didn’t feel my body.I didn’t feel the ground.I didn’t feel anything…Except awareness.And that was worse.Because it meant I was still here.Somewhere.My thoughts came slowly.Like dragging something through thick water.“…am I… dead?”The question echoed.Not outwardInward.And something answered.Not the presence.Not the fragments.Her.“You’re finally quiet.”My breath hitchedOr at least, it felt like it did.“…where are we?”Silence stretched for a moment.Then—“Inside the core.”The word hit differently now.Core.Not a place.Not exactly.More like…The center of everything I was.Everything I sealed.Everything I refused to remember.My vision shifted.Slowly.Like something peeling back.And then I saw it.Not clearly.Not fully.But enough.An endless space.Not black.Not white.Something in between.Like shadows layered over l

    Rose’s POV It stops waiting. Those words didn’t just sit in the air They settled inside me. Heavy. Certain. Final. I could feel it. That presence— That thing sealed deep inside me— It wasn’t quiet anymore. Not really. It wasn’t pushing like before. It wasn’t clawing at the edges of the seal. It was… still. Too still. Like something that had just realized it didn’t need to struggle anymore. Like something that had found a better way out. My breath came slower now. Careful. Measured. Because I understood something I hadn’t before. The first time, it tried to break free. Now… It was learning. And that terrified me more than anything else. “…it changed,” I whispered. The Lycan King didn’t let go of me. His hand still steady on my arm. Grounding. “What do you mean?” “It’s not fighting,” I said. My voice barely above a breath. “It’s… waiting.” Silence followed that. Not empty. Heavy. Because he understood what that mea

  • Rejected by my Alpha, Desired by the lycan king    Chapter 50

    Rose’s POV“Now… let me out.”The whisper didn’t fade this time.It stayed.Pressed close against my mind like breath on skin.Too real.Too present.My body went rigid.Not frozen—Held.Like something inside me had wrapped around my spine and tightened.My breath came in sharp, uneven pulls.“No…”I didn’t know if I was saying it to the voice…Or to myself.The pressure inside me spiked again.Stronger than before.It wasn’t just pushing anymore—It was testing.Probing.Finding the weak points.My knees buckled slightly.A gasp tore from my throat.The Lycan King caught me before I hit the ground.His grip firm.Steady.Real.“Stay with me,” he said.His voice cut through the noise—Not silencing it…But giving me something else to hold onto.“I’m trying,” I breathed.But it was getting harder.Because that thing—That presence—It wasn’t just pushing against the seal anymore.It was pushing against me.My thoughts.My control.My identity.“You’re tired…”The voice was softer now.

    Rose’s POV“We found you.”The voice didn’t fade.It didn’t echo and disappear like the others.It stayed.Cold.Sharp.Alive.My knees hit the ground before I could stop myself, the impact barely registering as a violent pressure crushed against my chest. It wasn’t physical—no, this was deeper, fa

    Rose’s POV“I’m… here.”The words left my mouth, but they didn’t feel complete.Not wrong.Just… incomplete.Like they only told half the truth.Because even as I knelt there, breath unsteady, body trembling from the force of everything that had just happened—I could still feel it.That presence.

    Rose’s POVDarkness didn’t come like before.It didn’t swallow me whole or drag me into unconsciousness.No—this was different.This was awareness… without control.I was still there.Still me.I could feel everything—the cold night air brushing against my skin, the tension in my muscles, the stead
