I had just set my phone back on the nightstand when I heard them.

Two sets of footsteps outside the cabin. They were sharp, urgent, and… unmistakably familiar.

The door swung open before I could even get up, and there they were.

Gavin and Harley, both looking like they’d crossed half the state in under an hour.

Which, knowing them, they probably had.

I stared, frozen halfway between my bed and the door.

Gavin looked relieved just to see me. Harley looked like he hadn’t taken a full b

  • Rejecting My Three Alpha Mates   Chapter Sixty Seven: Fighting And Losing

    ALPHA HARLEY My fingers drum the steering wheel so hard the leather is starting to peel. Gavin is pacing behind the hood of the SUV like a predator seconds from snapping steel in half, phone crushed in his hand. And Luca? He’s staring at the single, blinking red point on the tablet in his lap, Alessi’s last known location. It burned itself into the hollow pit already forming in my chest. The abandoned service road. The place where her signal vanished. Where she vanished. My wolf claws at my skin, frantic, sick. I swallow the metallic taste rising in my throat. “Run it again.” Luca’s breathing hitches. It was shallow, uneven. He doesn’t look at me when he taps the keys, a thin sheen of sweat covers his brow. The illness is hitting him again. Harder than before. “Harley,” he murmurs, “I’ve run it six times. It’s the same.” His voice cracks into a rasp. “She was taken and it stopped there.” My vision closes to a pinprick. My hands are shaking again, I believe another sym

  • Rejecting My Three Alpha Mates   Chapter Sixty Six: Two Of Me

    The world comes back in pieces. First there was sound, then there was pain. A low mechanical hum fills my skull, steady and cruel, like a heartbeat that isn’t mine. My mouth is dry. My tongue tastes like metal. When I breathe, I smell antiseptic, bleach, and blood. My blood. Something pricks the crook of my arm. I try to move, but leather straps bite into my wrists. Panic blooms in me immediately. Where the hell am I? My chest rises too quickly, and the heart monitor beside me explodes in frantic beeps. The sound shreds the silence. The lab. The white walls. The light that was too bright to be real. And then, as if a ghost cutting through fog, someone whispers. “You’re real.” The voice is hoarse, trembling, small enough to shatter if I breathe too loudly. My body stills. My vision swims, focusing on a glass divider across the room. Behind it… No. That’s… She’s… Me?! The girl staring back has my face but clearly not my life. Her skin is pale and bruised, her lips crack

    The bathroom at the gala was all marble and gold mirrors. Too clean, too perfect, too much like everything else in this town that didn’t belong to me, that I didn’t belong to. I gripped the sink and tried to breathe, but the words of doubt just flooded my head. Not good enough. Not worth it. Nothing. No one. I’ve always been no one. Frantic, I pulled my locket out from beneath my dress, a small silver heart that had survived my childhood. One of the few things from my parents that I’d managed to keep. My hands were shaking. I opened it and looked at the tiny photo of us smiling at the camera, but then it fell. The locket slipped from my fingers and clattered against the marble floor. Somehow, the back panel popped open. There, inside, was a small piece of paper, yellowed with age, with a number scribbled in my mother’s handwriting. My heart stopped. I stared at it for a moment, wondering what it meant and what I should do when I finally had the courage to pull out

  • Rejecting My Three Alpha Mates   Chapter Sixty Four: Fatal Weakness

    ALPHA HARLEY The drive back from the Pack house should’ve taken three hours. I made it in two. My wolf was clawing beneath my skin, restless and angry. Something was wrong. Vaughn’s words looped through my head like a curse: She’s not just another Luna. Every mile between me and Alessi felt like a mistake I couldn’t undo fast enough. But halfway through, something else started. A cough. Then another. I pulled over, gripping the steering wheel as my lungs seized like they were being torn apart from the inside. I bent forward, gasping, tasting copper. When I wiped my mouth, there it was. A streak of blood across my palm, dark and real. “Shit.” I stared at it until the pounding in my skull drowned everything out. Not now. Not this. I forced the engine back to life and drove harder, ignoring the blur of lights, the honking cars, my wolf’s frantic growl pounding in sync with my heartbeat. By the time I reached the gala, Gavin and Luca were already outside,

  • Rejecting My Three Alpha Mates   Chapter Sixty Three: Danger Lurks

    ALPHA GAVIN I always thought these galas were the pinnacle of everything I hated. Forced smiles, stiff suits, hollow conversations about donations and legacies. But tonight? Tonight was different. Alessi stood beside me like a goddess in moonlight, her presence so commanding that every overdone chandelier and polished marble floor paled in comparison. The moment we stepped into the venue, her hand tucked in mine, I felt like I’d brought a spark of something real into a world built on pretense. She looked up at me, her eyes wide, lips parted slightly in awe. “This is… beautiful.” I couldn’t help the soft grin that tugged at my mouth. “Not as beautiful as you.” Her cheeks went red in the most stunning way, and suddenly my heart was doing things it hadn’t in years. Leaping, fluttering, hoping. I never brought girls here. Never. And I knew my stepfather would notice that. Alessi and I drifted toward the back garden when the ballroom got too loud. The lights strung across

  • Rejecting My Three Alpha Mates   Chapter Sixty Two: Where It Begins… Or Ends?

    ALPHA HARLEY Being back in the Pack house felt like wearing a shirt that didn’t fit anymore. Too tight across the chest, too itchy around the neck, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t breathe right. Everything was exactly the same. There was the scent of pine and stone, the walls lined with relics of my father’s rule, the hum of loyalty and fear that clung to the Pack like second skin. And yet I’d never felt more like a stranger. Vlad met me the second I stepped out of my truck. “You took your sweet time.” I smirked. “What, you missed me?” “Missed normalcy. My lunatic sister has been on a rampage. She’s holding unofficial ‘Luna luncheons’ now.” “You’re joking.” “I wish I was.” He ran a hand through his hair. “And the elders? They’re eating it up. She’s playing the part well. Tame, poised, sweet. Makes you look like the distant Alpha who needs a strong Luna to bring balance.” I clenched my jaw. “She’s trying to trap me.” “She thinks she already has.” —
