"Lexie! Lexie!! Get up! Get up, I woke you up earlier too but you didn't get up and it is already late now! And are you okay, you are drenched with sweat?"

Katrine woke me up by shaking my arms, blurting out everything in a single breath. I woke up with a jerk while panting heavily, but managed to assure her, "Yeah, yeah…I am okay."

Katrine nodded and turned her attention to the book rack, and It took a few minutes to actually calm my heart down. I exclaimed, "Thank the Moon Goddess, it was just a dream."

Thankfully, Katrine could not hear what I was saying, as she was busy preparing for school. I got down from the bed as soon as I realised that I needed to do the same thing, I had too little time left.

I started to get ready, splashing my face with water, hoping to wash away the glimpses in my mind that had been left over from the dream- images of Nate's taunting snicker, images of my fourteen year old self shaking and sobbing, images of me being attacked by the beast…

  • Scar : the rejected Luna   13. Possessive

    After I had submitted the application, the results were announced after a few days of waiting anxiously. The categories had been made for all the applicants, keeping in mind their initial capabilities and status, and it was according to these categories that we were supposed to start the training. Being a former rogue, I knew I would be put in the lowest rank for the training group, and that was exactly what the chart in front of me declared. I was elbowed out of the way by other students eager to check their own names and categories, but I walked towards the ground, still content.I was happy that even though all the former rogues and the weak wolves had been clubbed in the lowest category, at least we were being given a chance to learn to fight and defend ourselves- if not the entire pack. Because even though everyone knew that we had never been fully accepted as rightful and worthy pack members and the stain of having been a rogue would always follow us around as a shadow, our cond

  • Scar : the rejected Luna   14. Run-in

    After what happened last night, I was really not in the mood to do anything or go anywhere. But I had to, as I couldn't take off from the school as well as training, and neither could I indulge in this impulse of mine, to stay in the safety of my bed all day. Ignoring the nagging feeling in my gut, I managed to drag myself to the school and made it through the first half of the classes, but I didn't talk to anyone. And for that, I was in luck today that Kevin was not present today.So I headed towards the canteen to have my lunch, and deliberately sat on a totally deserted corner of the school behind the old canteen, so that I did not have to interact with anyone; and also so that no one could find me for at least some time. There were too many things on my mind that I needed to clear from there.But as I finished my lunch and was about to return to my class, seeing that it was almost time for the break to get over, three people suddenly appeared out of nowhere and stood in front of

  • Scar : the rejected Luna   15. My fault

    Paul's POV:I don't know why I was feeling so irritable today- if whatever I had done yesterday wasn't right, then it wasn't wrong as well.After all, she was my mate and I had tried to convince her too many times, but she found it so easy to not give a single shred of attention to it. I had been willing to wait for her till she was ready, but when I saw her talking with that rogue yesterday, I didn't know what came over me, and I did that…probably to gain her attention, or to make her realise how serious I was regarding my proposal, that I meant it every single time I asked her to give me a chance."She also should try to understand my point of view, but no! She has to be angry with me to the extent where I haven't even seen her once since then!"I was busy in my one sided monologue, without realising that I had even started speaking out loud, when I heard someone knock the door. I was already in a highly irritable state because of this cold war situation, but I still had to look af

  • Scar : the rejected Luna   16. Andy

    Although Paul had brought me to safety, because of my earlier injuries due to being bitten by the wild beast, my healing powers that had been inherent to my werewolf nature had become too weak. As a result, my body was showing the symptoms of that trauma, by not recovering in time. Paul had to find a good doctor for me, realising that I could not heal until the wounds were tended to. He had to contact the main healer of the pack, who rarely used to treat patients these days after his retirement; but because it was an Alpha's call, he couldn't simply deny it, and had arrived for a check-up. He had left after checking my wounds and prescribing plenty of medicines for quick recovery, herbs for pain relief, and precautions for me. I found out all this from the mouth of a girl who had been appointed as my attendant for the time being, as I had still been unconscious after Paul had brought me here. I woke up two hours after the main healer had left, and found myself in a strange room. T

    A little laugh escaped from my mouth, while Paul was looking at his brother with confusion and a little annoyance, as his arrival had interrupted our conversation. Even though the sound of my laughter was quite feeble as I was not able to use my full vocal capacity, the little fellow still recognised my voice and exclaimed; "Ahh! She is here! But where is she? Lexie, where are you?" Saying this, he came to stand in the middle of the room, and saw me lying on the bed. Without a word, he turned to his older brother with a gesture to lift him up and put him by my side, on top of the bed. I could sense a twinge of jealousy on Paul's face, but his love for his brother overpower it and he lifted Andy up and put him by my side with tons of instructions. “Andy! Lexie is not well, so you can't jump on her, no hugging and no poking her cheeks either! In short, you are not allowed to touch her, nor are you allowed to pull on her hands for playing with you, as she needs rest-” “Oh my God Pa

  • Scar : the rejected Luna   18. Found family

    It had been seven days since I was brought to Paul's house after the incident, and I had been staying there and recovering from my injuries. But all these days had gone by in the blink of an eye, while at the same time, it had been a very long and significant time period for me. Because during this period, Paul and I had come so close in the manner of knowing each other. He shared how being an Alpha was not only challenging work as expected, but the work required hundred and ten percent responsibility…how it required one to be away from everyone, apart from some extremely trusted people in their life; despite wanting to hang out like a normal adult, the person in a position of authority was also bogged down with responsibility, and couldn't actually go out for the sake of their own social life. During the days that passed us by, we discussed things like these, along with the different adventures we had embarked on in our entirely different lives- whether willingly or otherwise, whi

  • Scar : the rejected Luna   19. The Ball

    It had been another seven days since I returned home, and I had almost made a full recovery by now. There were still a few sore spots, sure, but I could walk around and do stuff myself, for the most part. However, there was one very important job to be done, that was still pending: telling Micheal what had actually happened. I knew that although he had not asked anything directly from me, he did want to know what exactly had happened to me that I had stayed at Alpha Paul's place for a week straight. After I told him everything, from me getting injured to Paul taking care of me, he just looked at me and asked, "Do you know who those people were, and what they wanted from you?" But I really did not have the answer to this question of his, so I simply shook my head from left to right, and uttered, "I don't have any clue." "I want you to be careful from now on, and inform me earlier if anyone tries to pull anything like this again. Got it? Oh and, Paul had come looking for you, that

    At school the next day, the hype about the ball was so huge that everyone was just talking about the ball and nothing else. All the adolescent werewolves who had not found their mate yet, were hoping to find their mate at the ball, so everyone was really over-excited for this gathering. And naturally, all the hopeful ones were seeking not just a second opinion about their chosen outfits from their friends, but even so much as twenty or thirty of them! Abby was also one of them, and wanted to stand out from the crowd. After all, according to public knowledge, the Alpha hadn't found his mate yet either, so she still has a chance...and how could she let go of this golden opportunity? She might have been distracted in planning the dress, accessories and hairstyles for the ball, because she bumped into me in the school corridor yet again. At first, she was obviously annoyed and looked up to see which lowly creature had interrupted her sweet daydreaming, but she became totally stunned af

    Lexie's POV:It was finally time to leave our little bubble of paradise. Paul and I had spent every second of the past week wrapped up in each other, tangled in white sheets and sun kissed sand, laughing, teasing, dancing under moonlight. But now, this trip back home was supposed to be the quiet end to a perfect honeymoon, with my memories filled with yacht rides, ocean breeze and lazy afternoons.We had been driving for hours when we spotted a lonely convenience store in the middle of nowhere– the paint outside was chipping, the neon sign was turned on and flickering even in the evening. I raised my gaze, shielding my eyes with my hand. “One last pit stop?”Paul murmured, kissing my knuckles before pulling into the gravel lot. “Elrick’s Go_ds” was written in peeling red letters. One of the letters was missing, but the location was still quite charming. “Want me to go?” I asked, unbuckling my seatbelt.Paul leaned across to kiss my cheek. “I’ll pump the gas. You grab the snac

    Lexie’s POVThe world outside our window was still dark, but a hint of morning clung to the edges of the horizon. Paul's breathing was still ragged, his forehead damp against mine. We were tangled in the sheets, our bodies slick with sweat and love. His heartbeat thumped against my chest, strong and steady, as if it had finally found its rhythm.He brushed a kiss to my temple, his hand caressing my back slowly, fingers splayed like he was trying to memorize every inch of me. “You okay?” he whispered, voice low and hoarse.“Mmm,” I hummed, too blissed out to form words. I curled into his warmth, nuzzling his neck, where his scent still lingered. “I’ve never been better.”His fingers were soft as they traced idle circles into my lower back, and even though his body was spent, I could feel the way he still wanted to stay connected.He shifted after a moment, gently pulling out with a wince and a groan. I whined at the emptiness. He laughed softly and kissed my nose.“Come here, love…”

    Lexie’s POV:The moment he sat inside the car, I leaned over, hooking my right leg over his thigh and kisser him with all I had. Paul was stunned for a few moments before he responded, his lips moving against mine for a few moments before I pulled back, bringing my lips near his ears, just like he had been teasing me all night. “You like when they call me Mrs. Paul, right? Then I'll show you what it's like to be your wife, daddy…”It didn't take us more than five minutes to reach our mansion, and it wasn't a surprise to me, since I had been straddling his lap all the way back. There was excitement, anticipation and a little bit of fear in Paul's eyes as I closed the door behind me. “Hi, husband…” I grinned, pushing him onto the plush chair by the window, the moonlight casting silver trails over his skin.“Hey, wife,” he murmured back, voice already darkening with need.His eyes burned into mine as I straddled him, my knees on either side of his strong thighs. I could feel the he

  • Scar : the rejected Luna   111. Dinner*

    Lexie's POV:The southern Alpha’s estate was everything I imagined: ornate but not ostentatious, steeped in age-old tradition with ivy-covered walls, torch-lit gardens, and the scent of orange blossoms lingering in the warm evening air. Gold-lined lanterns floated in the courtyard pool as we arrived, and the staff greeted us with bows deep enough to impress even royalty from the North. Alpha Rian and Luna Alina stood at the top of the marble steps, radiating the composed elegance of true leadership. “Alpha Paul, Luna Lexie! Thank you for honouring us with your presence.”I gave a respectful nod, while Paul offered a grin that was both polite and perfectly confident. “We’re grateful for the invitation. It's been a beautiful week here.”Luna Alina gave me a knowing smile, eyes crinkling. “You both look like the holiday has been treating you very well.”Paul’s fingers brushed lightly against the small of my back. “Couldn’t be better!”He replied, and I bit back a smile. We were esco

    The sun dipped low in the sky, casting a beautiful golden glow over the southern territories. The yacht Paul had rented glided gently across the shimmering waves, anchored now just off the private cove they had claimed as their temporary paradise. Lexie leaned against the polished railing, the sea breeze toying with strands of her hair, her eyes half-lidded in peace as she watched the horizon stretch endlessly before them. This had quickly become her favorite time of the day… and the thought of leaving this place was beginning to bug her slowly. As if reading her mind, Paul emerged from the cabin, shirt unbuttoned, a drink in one hand and that irrepressible smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. “There you are, Mrs. Paul!”His voice was bubbly and affectionate, the nickname rolling off his tongue like it belonged to her as much as the sea belonged to the sky.Lexie smiled, turning toward him. “You have been calling me that all week.”“And I’m never going to stop.” He handed he

  • Scar : the rejected Luna   109. Strawberries and Sin

    Paul's POV:It was a Saturday afternoon, the kind that wrapped around your skin just right. The sun was warm on my shoulders, but the breeze kept her from sweating. The crisp air fluttered my skirt and teased my collarbone through the loose neckline of my t-shirt… well, Paul's t-shirt that I had declared as my own. Paul and I had wandered down to the market after breakfast, lazily strolling hand in hand past flower vendors, spice carts, and tables piled high with sun-ripened fruit. The market was buzzing with life; vendors calling out the sweetness of their fruit, kids tugging at their parents’ hands, and it lifted my mood even further. If this was how life was supposed to look like, I was finally starting to feel glad that I survived long enough to reach here. Bright red strawberries caught my eye, and I stopped at a wooden cart stacked high with plump, red berries, and my hand reached for one before I could stop myself. I pressed it between my fingers and it gave just slightly,

    Lexie’s POV:I dropped the rose; I didn't need it anymore. My eyes followed the outline of his cock, stirring under the silky fabric.I bit my lip, breath catching slightly as I grazed my lips over the swelling ridges, making him grow harder with each light, teasing stroke. A pleased, throaty sound escaped his chest, and I pressed my palm against him. His hips moved instinctively, his eyes falling close due to pleasure as his lips parted with the hint of a moan.I leaned in and brushed my mouth over his chest. “Still feeling sleepy, my love?”“No, but… damn.”He rasped, voice low and rough, “that’s one hell of a way to be woken.”Slipping lower under the sheets.“If you like it, I have some more ideas…”He looked down at me, and the moment our eyes locked, something shifted. Heat surged between us like a spark to dry leaves. He rested back with a groan, one arm behind his head, completely surrendering.I kissed along his abdomen, moving lower, letting my hair fall around him as I s

    Lexie's POV:The first light of morning spilled in soft golden beams through the open balcony doors, casting a gentle shimmer across the satin sheets. A salty breeze drifted in from the ocean, tugging at the gauzy white curtains like it wanted to be part of the moment. Somewhere outside, waves kissed the sand in their rhythmic hush, always moving, always returning.I opened my eyes slowly, blinking against the soft warmth of the sunlight. For the first time since our wedding last week, I had managed to wake before Paul. It felt strange, because every morning since we had arrived at this beach-facing mansion—our honeymoon escape from the world, he was the one to rouse me with soft kisses and teasing fingers. But today? Today I wanted to be the one who set the tone.I turned onto my side and let my gaze linger on him.Even asleep, Paul was all sharp lines and quiet strength, his bronzed skin glowing gold in the early light. The sheet had slipped down his torso during the night, reveali

    Lexie's POV:Dinner today was something special – that was all Paul had told me, and I was more than ready for whatever he had planned. The resort’s outdoor space had been transformed completely : our private balcony was adorned with tiny, flickering candles nestled in elegant holders, and a small canopy of sheer fabric had been set up, making the entire space glow with a warm, inviting light. The soft murmur of the waves in the distance seemed to chime with every heartbeat of ours. I was dressed in a simple, elegant dress that now clung to my body as the gentle night breeze started to flow. The sky had melted into shades of tangerine and indigo, and my husband was standing near the edge of the balcony, looking every bit the romantic dream with his sleeves rolled up. The golden light kissed his jawline as he stepped around me, his eyes warming the air between us. Delicate porcelain plates, sparkling cutlery, and tiny crystal glasses caught the light of the candles. He pulled out
