Ember Frost's POV

After a few minutes, a tall man in his late fifties walked into the room. His presence suddenly made the big space feel small, like he filled it all up just by being there.

"It's okay, Renee, enough of the crying. Don't disgrace yourself in front of the child," he said, pulling her into his arms. He hugged her gently while she kept crying hard, and he comforted her with patience, rubbing her back softly.

Slowly the lady’s tears quieted to soft sniffles, her shoulders easing under the warm light of the chamber’s lanterns. The man turned to me, his eyes steady but bright with unspoken hope. From his coat pocket, he pulled out a folded document. With a trembling hand he held it out with a gentle nod. "My dear, I know all this is hard for you to believe, but everything you've been told is true. We tested your blood at four different hospitals, and every result sings the same song—you’re our daughter, the one we’ve mourned since you were taken."

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   The Interrogation

    Ember Frost’s POVOnce the guards finally managed to soothe the raging Northern Duke, my father shifted his attention to the witch. His voice was calm but firm, the kind that left no room for excuses. “Alright,” he said, “let’s hear everything from your own mouth.”The witch tilted her chin up, wearing a mocking smile as if the entire situation amused her. “And what exactly do you want explained?” she replied. “I already told you—I was curious. I thought it’d be fun to live like some pampered noblewoman for a day. That’s all.”My father’s expression hardened, all patience gone. “If you keep talking like this,” he warned, “I might have no choice but to call in someone who isn’t as gentle as I am.” His tone dropped lower. “From the way you spoke earlier, it’s clear you know plenty about the old war. Then you should also remember what the werewolves used to do when they needed answers on the battlefield.” He leaned in slightly, his gaze cold. “We never worried about whether those methods

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   The Witch’s Game

    Ember Frost’s POVThis was the first time I’d ever stood in the middle of real tension between a ruler and those who served under him. My father wasn’t just any king; he commanded the room without even lifting a finger. So when a group of bold, disrespectful subjects challenged him, he handled them so effortlessly that it almost looked like he’d been expecting it.Watching him, I couldn’t help asking myself, what if that were me?If I had to face people like that one day, would I know what to do?Honestly, I doubted it. I imagined myself losing my temper in an instant, shouting, throwing insults, and probably barking orders for the guards to toss the troublemakers out of our clan entirely. Compared to my father, my imagined reactions felt childish, sloppy… embarrassing even.He didn’t need violence. He didn’t need to raise his voice.He survived every storm by staying calm, unreadable, and always in control.My father’s words echoed in my head. Respect isn’t earned by strength alone.

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   Elders at Odds

    Ember Frost’s POV My father looked squarely at the bald elder, his tone calm but unmistakably hard. "I believe Elder Thane makes a fair point, Elder Donald," he said, his gaze never shifting from the stubborn old man who refused to drop the issue. "With danger looming over us, our attention should be on the real threat, don’t you agree?"Anyone with half a brain would have taken the cue and let the matter rest.But Elder Donald?No—he clung to his anger like it was a badge of honor.His face flushed an angry red, and he practically vibrated with indignation. "Your Majesty, matters of governance are never small!" he barked, twitching like a man who’d just stepped on an electric wire. ‘You may call it a mere seat, but every seat symbolizes rank, respect, and the balance of our noble order!He threw a hand toward the restrained witch. “Yes, questioning her is important, but what can she do? She’s bound! Let’s allow this miserable trespasser a moment to ponder just how she might ever rep

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   Council in Chaos

    Ember Frost’s POVMira took her time looking over every cut and bruise, her brow furrowed with concern. In the end, she let out a soft breath of relief. “Nothing deep,” she murmured. The injuries looked worse than they actually were, just surface scratches, terrible on the outside, but no real damage done.My mother, meanwhile, was already fussing. She shoved a long list into Millie’s hands, all sorts of sweet-scented oils and strange herbs. Judging by the amount, I suspected I’d be soaking in steaming baths for months until she felt satisfied I was “restored.”Once Mira finished patching me up, I headed straight for the meeting hall.The moment I walked in, the whole room felt tense. At the head of the hall, my parents sat, alongside the Northern Duke and Duke George. Off to the side stood several people I didn’t recognize, dressed in deep green robes I believed were members of the Council of Elders.The witch who had caused so much havoc was chained to a spell-marked pillar. The wer

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   The Fallen Sorcerer

    Ember Frost's POV Once Eira was safely placed into the ambulance, I made my way back to the place where the witch is kept, my steps heavy and my mind still spinning from everything that had just happened.The once-spoiled, prideful witch wasn’t so bold anymore. She was on the ground, bound so tightly she could barely lift her head, looking less like a threat and more like a cornered creature with nowhere left to run. The cords wrapped around her weren’t normal either. They held a soft pulse of old magic, an ancient restraint spell created by the legendary wizard.For the first time since all these started, a flicker of fear crossed her face, small but unmistakable.She tried to pretend anyway. “Don’t fool yourself into thinking you’ve won,” she spat, trying to sound bold. But I could hear the tremor underneath, pure bluff and nothing more.I’d had enough of her noise. I stepped close, grabbing her chin to tilt her face toward me, letting her feel how irritated I was.“Quiet,” I said

  • Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the Crown   After the Fall

    Eira's POVThe werewolf elders were already in place, each one braced for what was coming. Their leader shot Ember a firm look—his silent way of saying everything was ready. Ember didn’t hesitate. She turned toward me, her voice trembling with urgency.“Eira—go! Do it now!”I forced myself to concentrate, drawing in every bit of unseen energy drifting through the air around me. It felt like reaching for something I couldn’t quite touch, but I pulled anyway, gathering whatever strength I could.Even with my eyes shut, the world unfolded before me in thin, barely visible threads. They stretched across every direction—some tangled into tight, stubborn knots, others drifting upward like they were stitched to the sky. I needed to find the one thread connected to the witch… hoping I could trace it back to its source fast enough before everything slipped out of my control.The process drained a lot out of me, and no matter how hard I pushed, I couldn’t rush it. Just as I tried to force the p
