Six-Times Rejected Freak: Claimed By The Alpha Prince Chapter thirty five: Cast Out
AlinaThe world tilted as I stumbled back from Blair’s slap, the sting on my cheek blooming like fire across my skin. My gasp caught in my throat, and for a moment, all I could hear was the sharp ring echoing in my ear and my own ragged breathing.I didn’t raise a hand. I didn’t strike back.Maybe I should’ve. Maybe I could’ve. But my body felt like it wasn’t mine anymore—heavy, distant, trembling from a terror I couldn’t swallow down.Blair scoffed. “Pathetic. Look at you—too weak to fight back now?”My vision blurred, but I forced myself to meet her eyes. I wouldn’t look away. I couldn’t give her that.“Don’t speak to her,” the Alpha snapped from his throne. “She’s not worth the breath.”A ripple of cruel laughter passed through the court.“You—” My voice cracked. I swallowed. “You’re the ones creating problems for me!”Blair raised a brow. The elders leaned in like vultures.“I never asked for this,” I continued, desperate. “I never wanted to cause issues. Why do you all hate me so
Six-Times Rejected Freak: Claimed By The Alpha Prince Chapter thirty four: Uncrowned
AlinaThe cold had settled deep into my bones, but I didn’t care anymore. I banged against the cell door with both fists, the sound echoing through the dungeon like a desperate heartbeat.“Someone!” I shouted, hoarse. “Please! I need to speak to someone—anyone!”Silence.I struck the bars again, pain shooting up my arms. “You can’t keep me here forever! I didn’t do anything wrong!”Still nothing.Just the flickering torchlight and the stone walls pressing in around me like a tomb.Tears burned my eyes again—angry, useless tears that I blinked away as hard as I could. I couldn’t afford to cry. Not when Malia was locked up because of me. Not when I was wasting away in this place like I didn’t matter.I sank to my knees, hands gripping the cold bars. My breathing came fast, too fast, and I clenched my jaw until it ached just to hold in the scream.I needed to do something. Anything.My eyes scanned the cell again, flickering from the loose patch of stone in the corner to—There.A broken
Six-Times Rejected Freak: Claimed By The Alpha Prince Chapter thirty three: Borrowed Crowns
AlinaThe stone was cold beneath my knees, a biting kind of cold that crept up into my bones and refused to leave.I had stopped crying. Tears hadn’t helped me before, and they wouldn’t save me now. Damian’s shirt, still wrapped around me, no longer offered comfort—only the faintest illusion of protection. It clung to me like a memory, one I wasn’t sure I’d survive long enough to keep.My wrists ached where they’d dragged me. My arms were bruising, the raw skin from my earlier scuffle with Blair throbbing with each pulse of my blood.I wasn’t sure how long I’d been sitting there in the cell—curled on the floor like something discarded—when I caught it.A scent.Warm broth. Herbs. Something that reminded me of kitchens and comfort. The ache in my stomach twisted, but not with hunger.Panic.I looked up just as the familiar figure stepped into the shadows of the dungeon.“Malia?” I whispered.She was holding a small flask, steam still curling from the top. She looked hesitant, eyes dart

The silence in Damian’s room was different now.I sat on the edge of his bed, legs tucked beneath me, wearing nothing but one of his shirts that fell past my mid-thigh. The fabric still smelled faintly of him—warm cedar, faint spice, something darker underneath. It should’ve comforted me.It didn’t.The sheets were still rumpled from where we’d laid together. His warmth lingered in the mattress, but it was fading with every second he was gone.I bit into the apple I found in the mini-fridge by his desk, chewing slowly, trying to distract myself from the coiling unease in my stomach.The worst is over, I told myself. I’d survived the dungeon. I’d survived Blair. Damian had seen me. Defended me. Chosen to keep me here.I was safe.I swallowed and wiped my thumb over the curve of the apple, trying to believe it.Then the door exploded open.I shot to my feet, heart seizing in my chest, apple falling from my hand and thudding on the floor.Three guards stepped in, all in uniform, all ston

AlinaThe silence between us had shifted.It wasn’t the comfortable hush of shared sleep anymore. It buzzed—alive, crackling, saturated with something I didn’t dare name.Damian’s body pressed against mine, his breath fanning the curve of my jaw. He hadn’t moved. Not really. His weight was still partially on me, his hand still splayed across my waist like he belonged there. I could feel every inch of him—every unintentional twitch, the heat from his skin, the tension in his muscles.And then… there it was.He rubbed against me again.I froze, heart hammering against my ribs like it was trying to escape.My breath caught in my throat.He was hard. Undeniably. And he wasn’t pulling away.A thick wave of awareness swept over me, dizzying in its intensity. The realization that he wanted me—that his body had answered in ways he hadn’t voiced—made something hot and dangerous bloom low in my stomach.My body reacted before I could stop it, my hips pressing up, an involuntary friction that se
Six-Times Rejected Freak: Claimed By The Alpha Prince Chapter thirty: The Space Between
Alina’s povThe warmth was the first thing I noticed.Soft, slow, steady warmth spreading from my side down to my toes. A plush mattress beneath me. The scent of cedar and something unexplainably him filled the air. My eyes cracked open, reluctant and heavy, but they opened.I wasn’t in the cell anymore.The ceiling above me wasn’t stone, and there were no chains on my wrists.I was in Damien’s bed.The realization settled into me like a calming tide. My gaze drifted to the window—the light spilling through told me it was still morning. I blinked, letting it all sink in.Safe.“Hey,” came a quiet voice.I turned my head slowly.Damien was there, standing at the side of the bed with a tray. His expression was unreadable, but his eyes… his eyes were soft.“You’re awake,” he said.I tried to sit up, pushing the heavy blanket down. My limbs felt like wet cloth, but I managed. “Yeah,” I rasped. My voice cracked like dry parchment.He moved quickly, placing the tray on the nightstand and po
Six-Times Rejected Freak: Claimed By The Alpha Prince Chapter twenty nine: Bargains and Bruises
Damien’s POV“She’s not yours to protect,” he said coldly. “Not anymore.”But she was.She always would be.And I wasn’t letting her go. Not now. Not ever.The silence between us stretched like a taut wire, humming with tension. My chest rose and fell in shallow, angry breaths as I stared at the man who called himself my father. His eyes bored into mine, the weight of his crown pressing into every word he hadn't said yet.Finally, he exhaled, sharp and slow. “You’re really willing to throw away everything for her?”“I already told you,” I said, voice low. “I’d risk everything. Except her.”His expression didn’t change, but something in his eyes flickered—recognition, maybe. Or resignation.“Then you’ll do something for me first,” he said at last.I didn’t move. “What?”“You want her free? You’ll earn it. You’ll take care of something I’ve had my eye on for months.” He walked past me toward the long table at the side of the throne room. Papers, scrolls, maps. He plucked one from the pi
Six-Times Rejected Freak: Claimed By The Alpha Prince Chapter twenty eight: Bound by Blood and Throne
Damien’s POVThe air in the throne room felt thick—like smoke without fire. My father’s presence always did that. It suffocated, pressed down like invisible chains, even when he wasn't trying. But now, he was trying. Hard.“She struck the Luna of an allied pack,” he said, his voice smooth like ice, deadly all the same. “You expect me to turn a blind eye?”“She was defending herself.” I didn’t raise my voice—I didn’t need to. “The Luna hit her first. You saw it. Everyone did.”He turned from the window slowly, deliberately. His gaze settled on me with that familiar weight, the one that had followed me since I was old enough to understand the power in his voice.“And what of it?” he asked calmly. “She should’ve taken the slap and remained silent. That’s what a proper omega would have done. But she—she struck back. In front of everyone. She humiliated Blair’s mother. And by extension, Blair. And by extension—me.”His words fell like stones. Calculated. Measured. Meant to bruise without b
Six-Times Rejected Freak: Claimed By The Alpha Prince Chapter twentyseven; Locked away
Alina’s povThe sting of my palm still lingered long after the slap echoed through the ballroom. But the rush that had followed—the sheer fury, the sharp clarity—it was already fading. And in its place was something much heavier.Regret.It coiled in my chest like smoke, curling tighter with every second that passed.What had I done?I stood still as guards stepped forward at the King’s command, their movements swift and rehearsed. I barely heard him speak, but I felt the weight of his decree settle on my shoulders like chains.“Take her to the cells. Let her rot there until I decide what to do with her.”The words hit harder than the slap had. My heart dropped to my stomach.“No,” Malia whispered beside me. She tried to reach for me, but one of the guards pulled her back roughly. “Alina—!”“It’s fine,” I lied, not even looking at her. “Don’t make it worse.”I didn’t resist as they grabbed my arms. What was the point? I had struck a Luna. In front of hundreds of people. And now… I was
