SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 20: A CONTROLLED REJECTION
Matilda's (Tilly) POV"Matilda, where's your little follower today?" Lawrence asked. "Excuse me, your grace?" I asked. "TAVI! You're so simple-minded sometimes, I swear!" he scoffed. "Oh, she's helping your sister, Violet ready herself for the celebration tonight," I said, hanging my head. "I hope you do not think that you're going tonight, do you?" he asked. "Yes, of course! None of us have a choice. It is an order from the king," I proudly said. "No, you will not! Do I need to lock you up?" he snarled. "I am going, your grace," I simply said, walking away from him.I was grateful no one heard his growl toward me. There were many others in the hall, and again I was grateful. Lawrence wouldn't dare hurt me when others were around. I didn't see what the big deal was. He didn't want me. It's why he is making me suffer before the rejection comes. I hate having to pretend not to have a mate when I sort of do. I was happy to see Tavi heading my way."Tilly! Are you ready to head to your ho

Oliver's POV"Who are you?" I asked the dark figure that towered over me. "I'm your uncle, Alpha Alonzo," he humbly replied. "Alpha," I bowed. "Your mother is worried sick looking for you. She told me why you came here. No need to worry. Octavia is safe here," Alpha Alonzo said. "I need to see my sister. I cannot bear to live another day with her living under the roof of traitors," I rebelled. "There are other things in motion. You need not worry. Octavia is a smart she-wolf. I assure you that she is fine," he added. "I don't believe you, Alpha," I bowed. "Let's go," he commanded. "I'm not going anywhere!" I yelled, only to be drug by my arm.My reflexes got the best of me. I swung and hit Alpha Alonzo in the back of the head."I have little patience for insolence, pup! Do as I say, or I'll command it," he growled.I didn't utter a word. Yet, my actions could have gotten me discovered by those I have no interest in getting to know. I trudged behind him willingly. I wasn’t happy about
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 22: HOW COULD I PREVENT THAT?
Matilda's POV"Do you think I can skip work today?" I groaned from the soreness still present in my body. "Tilly, are you sure you are okay?" Tavi asked. "W-why?" I defensively asked. "I'm your best friend. I have known you since we were pups, even if you grew up here. I know when something is wrong. Is it Lawrence?" she asked accusingly. "N-no! Why would you say that?" I asked. "Tilly," she replied in agitation. "What? Let's just dress ourselves and head to the palace," I dismissively said.Tavi rolled her eyes but stayed silent. Once we completed our usual routine, we walked in an awkward silence all the way to our stations. "Matilda! A word!" Prince Lawrence called out to me. "Yes, my lord," I bowed. "I'll be down the hall," Tavi said walking away with a suspicious look on her face. "Okay," I replied turning my attention back toward Prince Lawrence.Before I could register what was happening, I was being pulled down a dark corridor."What have you told her?" Lawrence growled. "Can
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 23: LEX
Ruby's POV"Vince, look at me," I said looking innocently up at him. "Yeah?" He asked agitated. "Please do not hold it against me, my love. The past is the past," I answered kissing his cheeks. "Very well," he said excusing himself. My mind wandered back to the time where I hated Vincent. I turned to Phillip to soothe my worries for long years. Now, I stand here pregnant with his pup all over again but he mustn’t know."Dear, sister!" I heard Lex call out. "What are you doing here so early? I heard you all weren't due until tomorrow," I replied embracing him. "I've come early. Father insists on me learning more about diplomacy," he scoffed. "Very good, brother. Very good," I laughed. "Have you seen the little slave she-wolf, Tavi? I owe her an apology. I was sort of a dick to her when Talia caught us in the kitchen together," he chuckled. "YOU? Apologize? I would pay a great big bag of coin to see that," I laughed. "Oh, dear sister, you wound me," he dramatically said holding his che
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 24: JEALOUS SHE-WOLF
Octavia's POVQueen Antionette always found the most in opportune time to kick me while I'm down. I watched her parlay with the Gamma Felius' mate, Carol. Neither of them fancied me for reasons of their own. It never stopped Felius from being loyal to my father despite his mate's feelings for me. I shook off her insults and turned my attention to Tilly who wouldn't even look at her all morning."You have barely uttered a word to me in weeks but you have no issues speaking with the Queen bitch?" I shouted. "Keep your voice down," Tilly said finally locating my brother,her mate, Lawrence. "Are you even listening to me?" I angrily yelled. "Yes! The entire courtyard can hear you, dear friend. Let me do this, please," she begged.I watched her unpleasant exchange with Lawrence. He seemed upset at she for interrupting his make out session with some she-wolf I recognized from the night of the festival."Let's go," Tilly angrily said storming past me. "No! Not until you tell me where you got
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 25: WHAT HAVE I DONE?
Back Home...McKenna's POVIt's been fairly quiet around here, especially with Jubilee not talking to me. Someone told him that Olly and me had gone to the kingdom. I explained to him about Oliver's abrupt journey to rescue Tavi but it only angered him further."I turned down an excursion this morning," Jubilee said to me. "I hope you didn't do it to keep an eye on me, my love. I told you it wouldn't happen again," I reasoned. "McKenna, if I lose you, Jonah, or Oliver I don't know why I would do. I've already lost Tavi," he growled. "Jubilee! What is this really about? You're not making sense!" I shouted. "That fucking King! He has this hold over my family that I do not like!" He answered. "He has nothing!" I rebutted. "He is your heart once and you birthed him two pups that he galloped in here and took. We had no control over the situation. If he finds out about Olly, he will surely come for him. Jonah will be left without both of his siblings. Is that what you want?" He asked teary
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 26: UNIDENTIFIED WARRIOR
Oliver's POV“Olly, your mama is giving us both death glares,” Marlo linked me. “I know. She is pissed about Daisy,” I replied. “Why? That she-wolf is bat shit crazy,” Marlo scoffed. “Daisy surely set her off,” I answered. “I’m glad Karly didn’t act like that,” Marlo laughed. “It’s because she dropped you, fool,” I laughed just as Daisy and Karly walked up.I mentally shook my head. To say Daisy was nearly nineteen she was really immature.“Marlo, Olly,” Karly spoke. “We were wondering if you two wanted to join us for a swim later,” Daisy interjected. “We simply cannot,” I hurriedly said. “Why not?” She asked with an attitude. “Because you keep passing off my mama. I won’t be in the company of any she-wolf that lacks respect for her for no reason at all,” I snapped. “Besides, he doesn’t want to give you false hope,” Marlo interrupted earning a snack from Karly who showed signs of a smirk.Daisy stormed off in a fit of rage. Serves her right. I can’t believe I was so desperate to be wi
SUBMISSION: Rise of the Bastards CHAPTER 27: NOT NOW
Marlo's POVI was in the middle of having a very serious conversation with Tavi until my wolf started berating my thoughts with visuals of Quinn."That's her. We must protect that one. Such a tiny little lamb," my wolf, Mio called out. "You're going to scare her," I groaned. "You're so weak, human," he growled before cutting me off.I shook off my over zealous wolf. My head darted off in the direction Quinn approached. She was beautiful but much too young for me. I was seventeen but I would be eighteen soon enough."Hi," her small voice called out. "Hey, Quinn. How's Tilly?" Tavi asked. "She's awake and asking for you. Please don't tell her about her father. I am certain they most likely had him hung," Quinn replied rubbing a stray tear from her eyes. "I know," Tavi sighed grabbing Olly's hand. "Come on, Quinn," Tavi said but Quinn have her a reassuring bow before sitting next to me.I just sat there afraid to say the wrong thing. I don't want her to assume the wrong thing. She is muc
