Ryder’s POV

I had watched her for so long, she didn’t know I was standing right there. I took in how her skin shone under the little ray of light that pierced its way through the blinds, I watched her handle my clothes with care, I watched her every movement and she was yet to notice my presence. So I moved closer, to a spot we’d be able to breathe the same air.

She recognized my presence without looking at my face. Could she have registered my scent? Could she smell me from afar? Is this even real? I questioned myself time and time again. In as much as I want to be easy, and gentle with her, I couldn’t bring myself to because I’m not who she needs. I registered with command and command only will be the interactive tone I will use in our communication. I’m her Alpha after all.

I had noticed the neckpiece earlier, I noticed that as soon as I walked closer to her. But what I didn’t know was it has a pendant. I pretended like I was engrossed in reading the papers I held in my han

  • Rise of the rejected Luna    Renunciation

    Kiara’s POV Ismelida did not tell a ounce of lie about how crowded the retreat could be. The venue was filled with women, women of every age group, all shapes and sizes, women of dazzling complexions. Every single lady in here screamed Beauty and the little girls who ran over the place, playing around in joy and wide smiles made the gathering complete. “One day, you will get your mini you. So you could watch them run over the place,” Ismelida whispered to me drawing my attention from watching the little girls play around. “Oh please, I am still a maid in the Manor,” I replied. “A maid whom the Alpha and Beta are crazy about,” she contradicted. I was about to speak in response to what she had said earlier but was distracted by the voice of an elderly lady, “Gather around for your meal packs ladies.” “We should go help out with sharing the packs,” I suggested to Ismelida. She squinted at me for a moment before she responded, “How lucky our pack is. A humble and loving Lu

  • Rise of the rejected Luna    Dynamic forte

    Kiara’s POV The day of Ryder’s coronation anniversary drew closer and which signified that the responsibility that he had placed into my hands was approaching. After that night he proclaimed the duty he entrusted to my care, and I have been working, trying to make his day perfect and beautiful. I spent each morning and noon in the garden, looking out for and taking notes of each flower’s characteristics. From their leaf anatomy, to their stalk, to their scent, and most importantly their colors. I needed his day to be big, bright, and stunning. A maiden took a liking to me and we spent each morning together, walking around the garden, having small talks until it was late in the evening and I had to return to the manor to make dinner for Ryder and Brandon. “You spent your day in the garden today?” Brandon asked out of the blue as we settled down to eat at the dining hall. “Yes,” I dreaded my answer as I was surprised that he figured. “You do not have to sound that way. I knew

  • Rise of the rejected Luna    Compassion

    Kiara’s POV Months flew by like seconds after my return. Everything felt right, there was peace, joy, happiness, and no conflict in the pack. No wars, no harassments, no rogue attacks. When Brandon and Ryder broke the news to me about who I truly am, a hybrid, everything began to make absolute sense. Me not being able to manifest my wolf and my strange powers that overwhelm my being. “Will I be able to have a wolf?” I asked, glancing at both of them. “We can’t say for sure sweetness, but we believe you will,” Brandon answered calmly. “Hopefully I do. There is no one whose Luna is wolfless,” I said in a low tone. “That is the least of my worries,” Ryder reassured me, and that melted my heart taking all of my worries out. The festival of Ryder’s coronation anniversary is fast approaching and as scared as I am of participating in the ceremony, I know I need to be there. Heck, he is my mate. I have noticed that the behavior and responses to me have lessened. Some acted a littl

  • Rise of the rejected Luna    The Summit

    Ryder’s POV “Never! We won’t allow it,” one of the elders yelled across the room. Since the news on who Kiara really is broke out, the elders summoned Brandon and me immediately. There have been controversies about her being a curse upon the pack and the news about her being a hybrid made the elders angrier than they were in the past. “Can we kindly cut the maiden some slack? She just got back to the pack for the goddess’s sake. Let her catch some breath before you summon her to this meeting,” I said to them, standing ten toes on the fact that Kiara would not be present in today's meeting, the next, or any other. The manner in which she was treated the last time really cut me deep and I would not want my Luna to be ridiculed once more. “You are the core enabler of her character,” one of the elders called out and his words were followed by mumbles. “Let it be known in this room and beyond that I am the Alpha, the ruler, and some proprietor of this pack. Even though you all ar

  • Rise of the rejected Luna    Designation

    Ryder’s POV I watched her reactions at each step of the way, from how much she laughed, to how overwhelmed she felt, to a tiny piece of anger, and to her wide beautiful smile she had when I handed her the bouquet. My heart was racing, in the hope that Brandon had everything planned out already as we had stated the night before. I knew Kiara was pissed by his absence but only if she knew how much we had both poured ourselves into this, into welcoming her back home. “Oh, I missed this sight,” she moaned all-out as we approached the Manor. “It stands so tall as always,” she added looking at me with bright eyes. “Yes it does my princess,” I responded to her as I packed my car right out the stairs leading to the main entrance. I noticed her struggling with balancing her bouquet on one hip so one of her hands would be free to open the door by her side.“Don’t be silly you. I will get the door,” I reprimanded her at once because what does she think she is pulling off. “Sorry,”

  • Rise of the rejected Luna    Holding onto you

    Kiara’s POVThe ride to the Manor was a good one. From the music blasting through the speakers to Ryder singing along and acting like a teenager, to me giggling at him because this was the first time he dropped the Alpha regalia and acted his age. A sight to behold. When he stopped to get ice cream like he promised, he wore his high-pitched accent once more. “Why do you keep doing that,” I said to him while I was trying to gasp for air from laughing at his fake accent. “Because it makes you laugh so loud,” he answered as he stared into my eyes. We both gazed at each other for a while before we were distracted by the voice of the waiter who called out signaling that our order was ready. “Thank you,” Ryder said to him. “Do I know you from somewhere?” the waiter asked, directing his question to Ryder. “You sure don’t,” Ryder responded, wearing his accent once more. Before he rolled up his window and tightened his seatbelt. “You just lied to that young man back there, didn’
