Rejected by the Alpha: Claimed by the ruthless Lycan mate

ARIELLA "Fuck! Yes, right there!" I heard the strange words coming from Alpha Dante's room. I paused for a moment, staring at the door in amusement. Some crazy thoughts filled my head, and I tried to shove them away.My name was Ariella Donald, and I was 20 years old that day. I had recently discovered that my mate was none other than my pack alpha, Alpha Dante. Currently, I was on the verge of losing my sanity. Since the day I found out that Alpha Dante was my mate, my life had been nothing but a life of mystery buried in shame and rejection.Being his mate was nothing to be proud of, since he never acknowledged me as one, nor was he ready to be committed to me. He despised me in all glory and would always do everything to talk trash and down on me. I had been nothing but a punching bag to the queen, who was his mother, and Lora, his chosen mate.The increasing moans and soft groans coming from inside the room interrupted my thoughts vaguely, making me shudder. I couldn't disc

ARIELLA It was finally the time for the engagement party. I know this day was going to come. Even as much as I tried to denied it, I know I wouldn't denied it forever and my life is going to be really over . He's getting engaged, and with this going on. I was in for my room, this time I would be consumed with pain and hurt. They'd definitely make my life miserable. I am definitely escaping this hell. I know it was time for me to escape and as such, I may try to escape this night since everywhere would be so occupied. “What if you get caught again? That mean the end of us this time around" my inner wolf reminded me. I shrug, of course I know this better than anyone but when then is the good about this? One way or the other they would definitely make my life miserable. I watch as they all troop in to see Lycan king Arthur Jaden. And from a distance, I can also feel his aura around me. He's tall, light in complexion, his caramel eyes were shining through the darkness

~ARIELLA~ I saw a man staring at me weirdly while I was still gripped by fear as I looked at my angry mate, who was being held by the man. When he said, "Lock him up, he's a rapist," I couldn't help but feel safe for the first time in a long time. Never did I think someone would stand up to my bullies one day. I never thought I would be protected from any of them, but standing here, watching my mate punch and beat Dante up so mercilessly, seemed soothing. "Sir Jaden, you're..." "I will meet you at the hall. Ensure he's properly locked up and do not let anyone order his release until I say so," Arthor Jaden said icily, and the man who had been staring at me the whole time nodded. I could see fear in Dante's eyes, and somehow, it filled the void in my heart. I watched them grab him and roughly bundle him out of the room, and I couldn't help but sigh deeply after the door was closed roughly behind us. For the first time, I felt so relaxed, relieved, and I could breathe in fresh

~JADEN~ She was enticing. I wanted her. I knew I wanted her more than I had said to her earlier. And I was currently denying myself the chance of being a victim to my feelings, like I had been before. But at the same time. I couldn't possibly use her, not after what she had gone through in this pack, and that was why I came clean to her. I needed her to make decisions for herself. I never wanted to force my decision on her. As much as I wanted an heir, her opinion mattered. I wouldn't want to be the reason she cried. After what she had gone through, I knew she needed one person on her side. I might not be that person, but I promised to be a better mate to her and always look out for her. I don't know why I was drawn to her, but maybe it was because I was interested in her since she didn't seem like an Omega. I had been glaring at her since I held her hands when I abruptly declared those words of possession and command. After I found out she was my mate, I imm

~ARIELLA~I could see the shocked expression on his face. It was evidence enough to know that he was still in a state of awe.Perhaps basking in euphoria, thinking I might be playing with him.But I wanted this.I knew it sounded so lame and awkward, but I couldn't deny it. A part of me wanted this man.How could I fight my feelings?I wasn't the Moon Goddess who made things awkward, and instead of being a slave for the rest of my life, why not jump at this opportunity?I didn't know how I felt about this decision of mine, but what I was certain about was that I wouldn't regret it.At least, not yet."Are you sure about this? Is this what you want?" Sir Arthur Jaden, my mate, asked.He kept staring strangely at me. Maybe he didn't think I would accept his offer."Very sure. I'll be your woman," I ended up nodding as I said these words confirmatively.My inner wolf was happy. This was what she desired, to be close to him and inhale his scent always."You aren't making this decision be
