Aria stared down at the flowers in her hands—fresh, fragrant, and unexpected. Her fingers tightened around the stems as a storm of emotions twisted in her chest. Confusion. Gratitude. And something far more dangerous… hope.

She wasn’t ready for hope. It was not the right time for matters of the heart. Her life is a mess right now, and she wants to fix that part first. No time for distractions, even if that distraction is Mason.

“Well, well, what’s this?” Sam’s voice cut through the moment like a blade, mischievous and direct. She plopped down across from Aria, a sly grin tugging at her lips. “What’s really going on between you and my cousin?”

The question jerked Aria from her trance. She glanced at Sam, blinking. “I… he’s helping with my parents’ case. And I’m helping him look after Nina and her trauma from the accident. That’s all.”

Sam tilted her head, her blonde waves catching the light as her teasing gaze narrowed. “Just that? So… why the flowers? Is he thanking you for breathing

  • Saving My Rejected Mate   202. Shared Space

    Aria’s POVI sat at the long dining table with Nina and Maria, my untouched breakfast slowly cooling in front of me.Nina was happily swinging her legs beneath her chair, humming to herself as she stabbed a piece of pancake with exaggerated focus. Maria sat beside Nina, quietly sipping her tea, and was always ready to assist Nina whenever she needed to.I heard familiar footsteps heading towards us.I felt him before I saw him.Mason walked in already dressed for work, black slacks, crisp white shirt, dark coat draped perfectly over his shoulders. His hair was neat, his posture straight, his aura controlled—but I knew better. I could see i

  • Saving My Rejected Mate   201. Proposition (2)

    Mason’s POVI didn’t break eye contact with Daxton as I spoke.“Jacob,” I said calmly, my voice carrying just enough authority to cut through the room, “put the waiting room feed on the screen.”Behind the one-way mirror, I felt rather than saw Jacob move. A second later, the television mounted in the corner of the interrogation room flickered to life.Daxton’s gaze snapped toward it.At first, he squinted, confused, suspicious. Then his breath hitched.The color drained from his face so fast it was almost painful to watch.Aisha sat on on

  • Saving My Rejected Mate   200. Proposition (1)

    Mason’s POV2:03 a.m.The Federation Headquarters never truly slept, but at that hour, it held its breath.The moment my car rolled through the main driveway, the atmosphere in the entire building shifted. Guards straightened like steel rods. Staff who had been whispering in corners fell silent mid-sentence. Screens flickered as heads snapped up, eyes widening, hearts hammering.They had heard.Of course, they had.The Chairman’s brother has been detained.In their minds, that sentence already carried a body count.

  • Saving My Rejected Mate   199. No Longer Heavy

    Mason’s POVIt was almost midnight when they transferred my father to his VIP suite.The hallway lights were dimmer now, the hospital quieter, no frantic footsteps, no shouted orders, just the soft murmur of nurses changing shifts. My IV had just finished dripping its last drop into my veins.Dr. Murphy removed the line himself, giving me a look that said, ‘Don’t push your limits again tonight,’ but he didn’t say it out loud. He didn’t need to; it was written all over his face.I already felt hollowed out.Not weak, never that, but stripped bare. As if every wall I had built over the years had finally collapsed, lea

  • Saving My Rejected Mate   198. Without A Cause (5)

    Aria’s POVMason was finally settled into the suite beside his father’s room.Even then, the word settled felt like a lie. Nothing about tonight was settled; everything was raw, bleeding, hanging by threads held together by sheer will. I watched him sit on the edge of the bed, his shoulders tense, jaw clenched as if the weight of the entire Federation was pressing down on his spine.He looked exhausted.Not just physically, though the IV line taped to his arm told that story clearly, but in the way a man looks when he has stared too long into betrayal and still refuses to look away.Shaman Orun stepped forward, his presence immediately commandin

  • Saving My Rejected Mate   197. Without A Cause (4)

    Mason’s POVThe room was still trembling from what I had done to Quinn.Not the walls but the people and the air itself. It carried the residue of magic, of fear, of truth dragged violently into the light. My claws were still out, stained with Quinn’s blood, my wolf pacing beneath my skin like a caged beast that had tasted blood and wanted more.And then I looked at Daxton.Pinned to the floor by Samantha’s unyielding strength, his chest heaved violently, eyes wide, not with anger now, not even defiance, but with terror. Raw, naked terror.That was when I knew.Guilt does not smel
