Rejected Chapter 19 - The Lake
Elizabeth POV I could not believe how big this Pack was compared to my old Pack. The people I met along the way were curious, but respectful. Kinsley was learning her way as well. Many knew she was the Beta Female. I appreciated her not introducing me as the Luna. I was not ready for that. I had so much to work through … would I ever be ready? Kinsley took me to a beautiful garden out a side set of doors. It had been well cared for and had a sitting bench in the middle. From this vantage point the person sitting at the bench could take in all the garden had to offer. It had a calming presence to it. I had no idea why, but I could see myself sitting here and enjoying this space often. “Elizabeth,” Tamara says drawing out of my private thoughts. I look to her waiting for her to speak, “I am wondering if you need any advice on when to get personal with the Alpha,” she says to my shock. I take a swift intake of breath as Kinsley looks at her
Rejected Chapter 20 - What happened?
Alpha Carter POV As we sit and go over the situation with the rogues, my mind wanders to Elizabeth. I wonder how she is making out with Kinsley. I had not heard from them, so I figured things were going well. I was grateful Kinsley was here. She would help Elizabeth adjust. Hopefully sooner than later. I had a message from one of my Elder’s demanding my attention to the serious matter of choosing a mate. I had not advised them that I had found my mate yet, but I would have to do so soon, to calm them from demanding I select a chosen mate. I turn my attention back to Stan and realize he has asked me a question. “I am sorry, what?” I ask him as he smiles at me. “Thinking about your mate?” he teases me. Shaking my head, “How can I not think about her? She is perfect and I want to be the best I can be for her,” I reply. “You are the best thing for her. I can see how she is already starting to come out of her shell,” he tells me to
Rejected Chapter 21 - Chances
Kinsley POV “Alpha, I am sorry. I heard Elizabeth say she could not swim, but then she was in the water. I did not see her fall in,” I admit. I knew it was my responsibility to protect my Luna, but it was proving difficult. Looking to Tamara, “You were closer than I was. What happened?” I ask her pointedly. Tamara looks at me and I see a spark of anger in her eyes, before she turns to the Alpha, “I did not hear her say she could not swim Alpha. She stepped backwards and fell in. I rescued her as quickly as I could,” she says with a tear in her eye. “She is lying!” I say belligerently. “Excuse me?” Tamara replies coldly. “You could not see, remember?” she says to me coldly. “I jumped into the water and rescued the Luna as you stood there doing nothing,” I say to everyone in the room. Stan moves closer to me, as Tamara looks at me sadly. “I realize you were supposed to protect the Luna, but taking credit for my efforts seems a little beneath you, don’
Rejected Chapter 22 - Nightmares
Elizabeth POV We finally made it back to our room. I had gotten ready for bed quickly, after taking a shower. I blew dried my hair once I figured out how to use the dryer. I am not sure how to style my hair but at least I did not have to go to bed with wet hair as I did most nights. I walk out and see the lights are turned down. I see Carter is sitting on the bed waiting for me. He stands and walks over to me, “Here, I need you to take an antibiotic before we go to bed,” he says handing me a glass of water with the pill. I take it and quickly swallow the pill looking at him. He is wearing basketball shorts without a shirt. I can feel my heart beating faster looking at my tempting mate. Carter smiles down at me, “Like what you see mate?” he teases as my face goes beet red. I look at him, “Mmmm,” I say surprising him as I look up at him boldy. His eyes glaze over, and I can see his wolf trying to come to the front. Carter keeps h
Rejected Chapter 23 - Sparks
Alpha Carter POV I woke slowly with the feeling of sparks against my chest. I pulled the sparks closer to me, realizing that at some point in the night Elizabeth had naturally gravitated towards my body. I could tell from her breathing she was in a deep sleep, and I was reluctant to wake her. This morning was my turn to lead the training sessions. I had been away for a few days getting everything straightened out with Elizabeth, and I was feeling the burden of ensuring my Pack trusted that I was present for them. I gently removed her arm from around my waist, but she moved back whimpering at being moved. Her hand travelled across my chest and down towards the waistband of my shorts. I quickly grabbed her hand stopping her in her tracks. I was already sporting morning excitement; her touch would be more painful to endure. With my mate so close, it was hard to not mark and mate her. I needed to be patient, but I did not know how long I could ho
Rejected Chapter 24 - Outcomes
Elizabeth POV I could not believe it. Carter had betrayed me. He talked to Tamara before talking to me. She was not a psychologist. She would not know how to help me. It hurt me immensely that Carter had betrayed me. I turned the shower on and quickly went through my routine. As I got out and dried my body off, I realized I had forgotten to bring any clothes in with me. Wrapping the towel tightly around my body, I unlock the door and walk out of the room and head towards the closet. Before I can get there, Carter latches onto my wrist pulling me back to him. “Not so fast, sweet mate,” he says before his lips capture mine. He softly kisses me, before stepping back slightly. “Good morning,” he says as he holds his arms loosely around my body. I try to push him away, but he is not budging. “Let me go,” I reply as he shakes his head no. “Not until we finish this conversation,” he says as he steps back pulling me towards the bed. He sits me
Rejected Chapter 25 - Courage
Alpha Carter POV That was a tough discussion I had with Elizabeth. I could not share everything with her. The reality is if I take another as my Luna, then Elizabeth will inevitably become a mate to have pups with. No matter what I do to make her my priority, I would be expected to take the chosen Luna to events, subsequently moving Elizabeth to nothing in the Pack’s eyes. I could not let that happen. She needed to get stronger. I would do all within my power to make that happen. I finish in the washroom and wrap a towel around my hips. I need to get dressed and discuss Alpha Matt and the plans to charge them as a Pack with Elizabeth. Walking out of the bathroom, I see Elizabeth is ready to go. “Are you hungry this morning, sweet mate?” I ask her hoping her appetite is growing. “A little,” she replies deep in thought. I quickly get dressed and walk out to give her a hug and another kiss. She quickly opens her mouth to me, and I deepen our
Rejected Chapter 26- Scars
Elizabeth POV The interview had been gruelling. We spent hours discussing everything that had happened since I had been taken into the Pack house. I could tell Carter and his wolf were very upset, but I ignored them trying to get the Council members to finish the interview. As they were wrapping up, they asked if I had any pictures of the abuse. I looked at them in shock, as Carter growled. “I only have scars,” I reply quietly. “Why would you ask that?” Carter demands from the chair beside me. Our knees were touching, and he held my hand the entire time. This brought me comfort during the tough discussion. “Please understand Alpha, we are only looking for additional evidence to use in our case against the Red Woods Pack,” the Council member leading the investigation replied. “You have us as having witnessed the abuse when she was being whipped,” he says angrily. “You have the Elders having witnessed the abuse as well; is that not enough?” he
