-Colter-

The tension between Aurelia and I was palpable, thick in the air like a fog. Josephine's arrival had thrown everything into even more disarray than what was already evident before. Had I known that Madison would pull a stunt, inviting Aurelia, I would have never done the same with Josephine.

“Hello, everyone.” Josephine greeted everyone in a sing-song voice that made me swoon almost every single time. I was forced to restrain myself at this moment, however.

“Jose,” I said with a small smile. “I’m glad you made it here safely.”

“So am I,” Josephine replied. “Though it is hard not to arrive anywhere safely with the detail that I have.” she attempted at a joke but everyone was too tense to chuckle.

I forced one out, ignoring the curious glare of my best friend. I also noticed something else. Josephine’s gaze was set one on one particular individual at the table, and it was not me.

Her eyes had been on Aurelia almost since her arrival at the table. There was almost a spark of rec

Hey bosses, apologies for the mishap but there was a big part missing between chapter 13 and 14, so I had to add it on to chapter 13. Sorry for the mistake!

Colter is a coward and cowards do not make great Alphas. Just make a decision. It seems easy actually. Spoiled brat!

  • Rejecting Fate   Chapter 53: A Call for Help

    [AURELIA]‘What was that?’One moment I was at that door, wondering who was standing outside of that door, whispering incoherently. I lifted my hand to knock, to see what would happen if I made my presence known to them. Sure, they’d already known I was there. Why else would they have been outside the door.But were they aware that I was cognizant? I wasn’t sure, but I was about to find out. When I suddenly felt it. Something that shut me down in that moment before I made my move. It was a sensation that galvanized me now.A shockwave of pure, undiluted pain ripped through my chest, a sudden, crushing emptiness that stole my breath. And I couldn’t shake the feeling that it was connected to mom.It felt like a tether. There was a strong connection between my mother and I. There always had been.I’d always chalked it up to a pure mother-daughter bond, made stronger by the shared loss of someone we truly love; my dad.But this…this was something different. It was a tether made visibl

  • Rejecting Fate   Chapter 52: The Power of the Moors

    -Colter-The Sno Wolf Pack’s private meeting room was a stage for a slow-motion disaster. I leaned against the heavy stone fireplace, my fingers digging into the cold mantelpiece, desperate to channel my agitation somewhere, anywhere, but at my father.Luna Charis stood before Alpha Connor, a frail, fierce silhouette. Her voice was thin, but the fury behind it was sharp enough to draw blood.“You tell me you will ‘take care of this,’ Alpha Connor, but every minute my daughter is with Mason, you only sink deeper into his web,” she clipped, her eyes burning into his. “You talk of diplomatic solutions and political balance, but you are not a powerful Alpha right now. You are nothing more than a pawn being maneuvered by the Moors.”My father’s jaw tightened. He never tolerated insolence, but this was Charis—the mother of the girl I couldn't stop thinking about—a rarity, an Original Luna. He held his tongue, but his silence was a growing storm.It was Kenneth, my uncle and our Delta, who i

  • Rejecting Fate   Chapter 51: Enduring the First Night

    -AURE-The door to the Alpha’s quarters closed with a heavy thud. I winced at the sound that echoed through the torchlit chamber. It was like a final sentence to our conversation.Alpha Mason was gone, leaving me alone in a room that was like a carefully crafted cage. It was a prison wrapped in slick stone and gold and accents. His lingering scent, a mix of pine and dominance, still lingered in the air, a consistent reminder of my predicament.Silence descended, and it was heavy and absolutely suffocating. I took a deep, shaky breath, the furious adrenaline of our confrontation ebbing away. It left a cold pit of dread in my stomach. The fear for my mother, so carefully hidden during our exchange, now threatened to overwhelm me. Fragile. Alone. His words were a venomous echo in my mind. He hadn't just taken me; he had taken the one thing I valued most and dangled it just out of my reach. My mother’s safety, my very freedom, were now tied to his whim.This is a trap for something m

  • Rejecting Fate   Chapter 50: Mason's Offer

    -AURE-"Well, now," Mason's voice, surprisingly smooth and devoid of the aggression from moments before, reached me from directly in front of me. "That wasn't so difficult, was it?"The rough fabric of the sack scraped against my face as I was unceremoniously dropped, the impact jarring my teeth. Before I could even gasp for breath, it was yanked away, revealing the flickering golden light of what appeared to be a torchlit chamber.Ruffled and irate, I shifted slightly, “I offered to come freely. You didn’t have to cover my head and carry me.”My vision swam for a moment, then snapped into focus. This wasn’t a dungeon. This was….opulence. The air, thick with the scent of aged wood and rich earth, hinted at deep roots. Tapestries depicting ancient battles adorned the stone walls, and furs softened the hard-packed floor. I was in the Alpha’s quarters.I scrambled backward, my back hitting a solid oak desk, my wolf snarling in my chest. Fear was a cold ribbon, yes, but it was quickly ove

  • Rejecting Fate   Chapter 49: The Weight of Reality Pt. 2

    -Colter-“You can’t be serious.” My words were dripping with resentment and frustration. “Are you really so blind? So desperate to believe that your father is all good that you can’t see the reality?”“I know! I know that my father isn’t all good, Colt! Who is?” Josephine finally snapped at me. “But I…I-what you’re accusing him of! It’s ridiculous!”“He watched her, Josephine! The way he watched her that night. He’d been eyeing her like prey. He wants her!” I asserted, my voice rising with every step that I took toward her. “How can’t you see that? He sees na strong, unaligned wolf-a powerful legacy, a mate that would undoubtedly grant him the right to the Moors seat.

  • Rejecting Fate   Chapter 48: The Weight of Reality Pt. 1

    -Colter-The crunch of my boots on the fallen leaves was the only sound accompanying me as I wandered around the edge of our territory. After I left the quarry, I couldn’t bring myself to go back home. Not just yet.There was a lot on my mind. Thoughts quarreling between two drastically different women in my life. Both whose undeniable beauty was only matched by the fierce independence.However, there was one who had been on my mind more often than not lately.Aurelia. Her scent, sharp and wild, lingered even now through the crisp autumn air, a tangible ghost of our conversation. My wolf, Maxim, was uncharacteristically quiet, the usual agitation replaced by a strange hum beneath my skin It wasn’t peace-not exactly, but a raw and unsettling clarity.The words that we’d exchanged were still reverberating in my mind. It was unlike any interaction I’d ever had where provoked feelings were involved. Least of all with my fated mate, the human I’d foolishly tried to push away. The human…t
