Kael’s POV

The Cadillac swerved into the parking lot of the school just before the bell went. Asher was in the backseat with a stick of cotton candy in his hand. We’d spent the entire day at the amusement park and I was surprised that he’d never been there. I’d taken Eliana there all the time, but she’d gotten tired of it and preferred to stay home. But Asher was different, and this was why I was going to succeed in swaying him over.

The Delta guard opened the door for him and he stepped out of the car. The doors of the school burst open and kids rushed out with an air of exuberance.

Asher got down from the car, and I followed suit, hoping to keep him safe until Aurelia arrived. Though I was certain she was going to lose her mind if she saw me. But what fun would that be to miss out on that?

“Thank you, Mr. Kael,” Asher said as he finished off his cotton candy.

I smiled broadly, the afternoon sun reflecting on the windows of the Cadillac.

“It’s nothing,” I assured him. “And please

    Liora’s POVProgress? I hadn’t made any. It was infuriating. Aurelia was enjoying her life and here I was linking miserable again. Kael was too focused on her. Just like before he met me. I thought I’d fully gotten his attention, I thought I’d ruined her life then, but somehow she’d gotten even stronger. There was something that had to be done about her. I was tired of being second fiddle to her. I was strong, but maybe not like her. Well, that was why I was here. Our last confrontation had been embarrassing. She’d defeated me easily when she got pushed to the edge. I’d never felt more defeated in my life. But now, I had the chance of redemption. I needed to know what made her tick. And there was only one person who could tell me all of that. The evening sun shone bright, its golden light bathing the table I sat at in the cafe. I glanced at my watch and drummed my fingers impatiently on the table. She was running late again. Anthonia. She was the only one I trusted to feed me with

  • Rejected by my Alpha, Loved by my Beta   28. Asher’s Fault.

    Aurelia’s POVThe Delta guards lifted Rune from the ground and rushed him into the mansion. Luckily for him, there was a small room which was used as a treatment room. I was going to heal him there. I turned to Asher who was crying with his hands on his face and rushed over to him. “What happened, Asher?” I asked, holding his shoulders. He was sobbing, wiping his cheeks making it hard for him to speak. By the time he found his voice, it would be too late for Rune. I have to move now. “Well two about this later,” I said, letting go of him, but then he grabbed my hand, turning me to face him. I was surprised by this. His tears had stopped and his face had hardened. “It’s all my fault,” Asher said, his voice still plagued with tears. I furrowed my brows trying to understand what he meant. “What happened, Asher?” I asked. “You can tell me.”Since there'd been tension between the two of them, I’d told Rune to spend some time with Asher to reconcile the bond that seemed to be fading.

    Rune’s POVA few weeks later. “Steady, steady,” I told Asher as I held his hand. He was aiming his bow at a deer feeding on grass from a distance. I was surprised that it hadn’t seen us until now. The morning sun shone above us, catching the trees and the grass around us. The warm air whistled past us, and the birds chirped above us. It was a beautiful day to be outside, and I was sure that Asher would concur. “I’m not sure I can keep this up for long, Rune,” Asher said, the frustration in his voice vivid. “Patience, Asher,” I urged. “You can’t do everything with force.”Asher sighed and let go of the bow. He turned to me, his face displaying his discomfort. “I got a cramp for holding it out too long,” he said. I sighed and gave him a disapproving look. Day by day he was getting more and more impatient. I didn’t know what was going on, but I didn’t like it. Maybe it was the growth of his powers. I wasn’t sure that a five-year-old would understand the word “arrogance” but he was

  • Rejected by my Alpha, Loved by my Beta   26. Warning from the Shadows.

    Rune’s POVIt felt like a thousand chapel bells ringing in my ears as I regained consciousness. I groaned slowly as I opened my eyes and I found myself still lying against the steering wheel. There was smoke coming out from the bonnet before me, and the windshield had been shattered into a thousand pieces, lying on the dashboard. The metallic tang of blood filled the air and I guessed it came from me. My head throbbed in pain and my body ached in resonance. I groaned once more as I leaned off the dashboard, sitting back in the chair.How long had I been out? I couldn’t tell. But the boulder that I’d run into was no longer there. That was impossible. If it wasn’t there at all, then what had I run into?There was no time for me to think of that. And my head throbbed each time I thought about it. This was an attack on me. That was all I could tell. I'd like to get back to the mansion. If they were trying to take me out first before they went to Aurelia, then I wasn’t going to let that h

  • Rejected by my Alpha, Loved by my Beta   25. Responsibilities.

    Rune’s POVShe was seated by her dresser combing her hair neatly with her black night gown on. Her long auburn hair and her skin shone in the fluorescent lights making her look astonishing. My wolf stirred in excitement as we watched her. I didn’t want this moment to end, but then I couldn’t tell her that she was my mate. I didn’t understand why she hadn’t spoken about it either. Maybe she was ignoring the bond, or she didn’t feel it at all. I couldn’t tell. But that was reason enough for me to keep my mouth shut for now. I knocked on the door gently and she turned to me. I gave her a warm smile but she looked away almost immediately. I gulped hard. That didn’t go as I’d planned. She looked irked by my presence. That was understandable because of what I’d done. I couldn’t tell her who was after me, because I didn’t know. I’d thought that they’d been after her, but after that message I’d gotten from the maid, I was wrong. I was the one they were after. It was confusing to me what th

  • Rejected by my Alpha, Loved by my Beta   24. Kael’s Misery.

    Kael’s POVI slammed my fist on the wall in rage and it trembled beneath me. This couldn’t be happening. Maybe I was going about it wrongly. How had I been able to mess things up? Aurelia had caught me, and I was sure she wasn’t going to dare let me see Asher again. My plan had been messed up. What was I going to do?I ran my fingers through my hair pacing the study wondering what my next move should be. There was no next move. I was stuck. There was only one way to get Asher to me, and that was stealing him. But I couldn’t do that. What was the point of bringing him in forcefully? He wasn’t going to enjoy his stay here. I wanted him to come of his own accord. He was my heir. The heir to the great Lycan pack, the Silver Fang. If I wanted him to be mine, I would have to follow some procedures. But that was going to take more time than expected. A soft knock came on the door and before I could demand who it was, it creaked open and Ethan stepped into the room. His hair was disheveled
