In a far far land where the palace did not sleep. The land held stories it could not forget. The people hold scars they are not able to throw away.

Dark stone rose like a silent sentinel against the night, its vast structure swallowing light rather than reflecting it. Corridors stretched endlessly, draped in shadows that seemed to breathe, flickering only where rows of candles fought a losing battle against the consuming dark. The air itself felt heavier within those walls—thick, unmoving, as

  • Rejected by my cursed alpha mate   Up here Ms Hale

    Liora’s POV:The elevator ride felt longer than it should have.Or maybe it was just me.The soft hum of its ascent seemed louder in the confined space, echoing against my already restless thoughts. I kept my eyes fixed on the glowing panel as it climbed—6… 7… 8…9.A soft chime broke through.The doors slid open.And I stepped out.For a moment—I forgot why I was here.The lobby on the ninth floor was breathtaking in a way that felt quieter, more refined than the grandeur below. Marble stretched endlessly beneath my feet, polished to perfection, reflecting warm golden lights that hung like carefully placed constellations. Everything was deliberate. Elegant. Controlled.It didn’t just look expensive.It felt important.I instinctively straightened my posture.Right. Professional survival tactic.Blend in. Breathe. Don’t stare like you’ve never seen a building before.I walked toward the desk, steadying my voice before speaking.“Hi,” I said politely. “I’m Liora Hale. I was asked to c

  • Rejected by my cursed alpha mate   Time will tell

    Author’s POV:The headquarters of Blackwood did not merely exist—it dominated.It rose high into the skyline of the Crescent Night pack like a declaration, its glass façade catching the afternoon sun and bending it into something sharper, something deliberate. Every line of its architecture was intentional—clean, powerful, unapologetically modern, yet rooted in a quiet authority that did not beg for admiration.It *expected* it.And it received it.The moment the car slowed to a halt at the entrance, Liora fell silent.Her eyes lifted.And for a second—she forgot to breathe.People moved in and out of the building with purpose—tailored suits, structured silhouettes, heels striking marble with precision. There was an unspoken uniform of excellence here: crisp lines, muted confidence, and the occasional bold red lipstick that seemed less like a cosmetic choice and more like a statement.No one lingered.No one hesitated.Everyone belonged.Except—Liora, who sat in the passenger seat,

  • Rejected by my cursed alpha mate   Something brewing

    Author’s POV:The bleachers of the Pack Grounds thrummed with restless energy—shouts cutting through the air, the dull thud of bodies colliding, whistles slicing across the field in sharp bursts. Dust rose in soft clouds under the relentless motion of players, and at the centre of it all stood Jared.Effortless.Commanding.As quarterback, he moved with a precision that bordered on instinct—calling plays, pivoting, throwing with a clean, practised force that drew attention whether one intended to watch or not.Up in the bleachers, however, Liora and Tessa were far more invested in a different kind of spectacle.“And then?” Tessa leaned forward, eyes wide, utterly absorbed. “Wait—wait—so let me summarise this before you conveniently downplay it.”Liora sighed, though the faint curve at her lips betrayed her.“You’re not summarising anything,” she muttered.“Oh, I absolutely am,” Tessa shot back, raising a finger as though delivering a lecture. “He kissed you—”Liora closed her eyes bri

    In a far far land where the palace did not sleep. The land held stories it could not forget. The people hold scars they are not able to throw away. Dark stone rose like a silent sentinel against the night, its vast structure swallowing light rather than reflecting it. Corridors stretched endlessly, draped in shadows that seemed to breathe, flickering only where rows of candles fought a losing battle against the consuming dark. The air itself felt heavier within those walls—thick, unmoving, as though time had slowed to accommodate something far more ancient than the structure that housed it.At the far end of the palace, beyond arched hallways and carved obsidian pillars, a sprawling veranda opened into the night.Moonlight spilled in.Silver.Cold.Uninvited.He stood there.Tall. Still. Commanding.A long dark cape draped over his shoulders, shifting faintly with the wind that dared to reach him. His frame was rigid, yet effortless—like a blade that had no need to prove its sharpnes

  • Rejected by my cursed alpha mate   Out of order

    She belonged in my arms.That is what it felt like.Not a thought. Not a decision. Not even something I arrived at.A certainty.Immediate. Unwelcome. Absolute.And entirely wrong.I should not have been there.I knew that.Every instinct I had honed as an Alpha—every boundary I had drawn, every measure of control I had perfected—stood against this moment.And yet—I had followed her.I had been in the middle of drills when I felt it. A shift. Subtle, but enough to fracture my focus. No one else noticed. No one ever did.But I did. I went towards it. I saw her then—at the edge of the grounds, standing beneath the open sky, her face tilted toward the moon at the banks of the waters. But what tugged me was the moisture on her cheeks. She was crying. Something in my chest tightened.Sharp. Unfamiliar. Irritating. The five Ws swirled around my head. I turned away.Forced myself to.This was not my concern.She was not—I took a step.Stopped.Another.And then I realised—I wasn’t le
