LILLIAN POV

The antiseptic scent of the clinic did nothing to erase last night memory from my mind. I scrubbed the same desk for the third time unknowingly as I desperately tried to cleanse my mind. But it was no use. Under my eyelids, all I could see was him. The moonlight on his face, the hunger in his kiss, the feel of his hands on my body.

‘I have always loved you.’

My own words echoed back at me, like a secret confession imprinted on my skin. I sent a silent, frantic prayer to the Moon Goddess. ‘Give me strength. Please, give me the strength to do what is right. To pull back. To focus on my duty.’

“Doctor Lillian?”

I jumped in shock and nearly dropped the sponge. Baron stood at the doorway to his room, leaning against the frame for support. He smiled weakly. “I was wondering…would it be possible to take a short walk? I feel the fresh air might do me good, but I am still a bit unsteady.”

It came as a welcomed distraction. A task. Something professional to steady me. “Ofcourse,” I

  • THE ALPHA’S PUBLIC REJECTION    CHAPTER 75

    ANDRE POVThe morning after the feast’s disaster felt unnaturally normal. Sunlight seeped through the windows, but it did little to warm the cold ache of anxiety in my stomach. Today was about acting like everything is normal, like a pack that didn’t witness the bomb it’s Alpha placed over its head. The door to my chambers opened without a knock and Lucas strode in, looking as tired as I felt.“Ready for another day of playing peacekeeper?” he asked with a huge sigh.“It is what I do,” I replied and checked my bag for the tenth time. “Any word from Drake this morning?”Lucas leaned against the doorframe and crossed his arms. “After I saw you off last night, I went back to check on him. He was…quiet. Too quiet. He is still in his chambers as far as I know. Probably rehearsing more apologies. Are you going to see him before you head to the clinic?”I shook my head as a pang of guilt hit me. I should be there, helping him strategize, facing Kael with him. But I also have other duties no

  • THE ALPHA’S PUBLIC REJECTION    CHAPTER 73

    DRAKE POVI stood before the mirror, to adjust the collar of my jacket for the tenth time. My reflection was that of a perfect Alpha with a rigid posture and an expression of authority. But the eyes were wrong. They were hollow.“Elara,” I muttered under my breath like an incantation. “Her name is Elara. Not Lillian. Elara.”A sharp knock sounded at my door and Lucas leaned against the doorframe with that infuriating smirk playing on his lips. “Practicing your lines, brother? ‘Good morning, my destined mate. So lovely to see you after I publicly humiliated you last night.’ It is a good opener. Sets a…complicated tone.”I glared at him from my reflection. “This is not funny, Lucas.”“Oh, I disagree. It is a tragedy, which is just comedy without the happy ending. So it is hilarious.” He stepped away from the doorframe and came to stand beside me, his expression turning slightly more serious. “You ready for this?”“Do I have a choice? I grumbled and finally turned away from the mirror.“

    ANDRE POVThe consistent, furious sound of my pacing was the only things keeping me from putting my fist through the wall and every time I closed my eyes, I saw it…Alpha Kael’s face, purple with rage, Elara’s disappointment, the stunned, judgmental stared of every pack elder and visiting dignitary. The humiliation was a hot searing burn in my throat. And he had just…left. He had dropped the bomb and walked away, leaving me to sweep up the pieces of our pack’s future.Where was he? How long did it take to brood around in a garden? The door finally creaked and Drake stepped inside, closely followed by Lucas who was in a middle of a conversation.“….and with that, I bid you good night, brother. I am off to find my own mate and pray she hasn’t heard about tonight’s madness,” Lucas said, with stress written all over his face.Then he saw me. He saw the tension in my shoulders, the burning fury on my face and his playful demeanor vanished instantly.“Whoa, Andre. Easy now,” Lucas said and

    LILLIAN POVI floated back to my room, my feet barely touching the ground with one thing echoing in my mind.His kiss. The desperate, hungry feel of his lips on mine. The possessive way he had held me, as if he would never let go. The raw, aching confession in his voice. ‘Do you love me?’A hopeful sob came out from my throat as my fingers traced my swollen lips, still tingling from the pressure of his. He had chosen me. Against fate, against duty, against everything….he had chosen me.I pushed open the door to my chamber with a dreamy sigh, but the scene inside yanked me back to reality. Salome, Lydia and Josh were huddled in the center of the room, all speaking in hushed tones, with a worried look on their faces. The air was thick with tension and they all froze as they all turned to look at me.Josh jumped on his feet and pulled me into a tight brotherly hug. “Lily! There you are. We were getting worried. Where have you been?” he asked.He didn’t wait for an answer. He guided me g

    LUCAS POVFor the first time in my life, I was utterly speechless.Andre looked like he had been physically struck on the face as he turned pale as sheet, staring at the empty space where Drake had stood just seconds before. Then, the weight of the world landed on his shoulders. Alpha Kael turned to him slowly like a predator considering it’s next meal, with hot fury seeping off him.“Explain.” The word wasn’t a request. It was a command. I saw Andre’s throat bobbed as he swallowed nervously. “Alpha Kael, 1….” he stammered, which was so unlike him. “This is…highly unusual of Alpha Drake. The stress of the recent Eastern Pack attacks, the pressure of the alliance…I can only assume he is….unwell.”It was a pathetic excuse, and we all knew it. Kael narrowed his eyes into slits and curled his lips. “Unwell?” he repeated skeptically. “He seemed well enough to disgrace my daughter and insult my pack in front of the entire Luxembourg nobility. This ‘unwellness’ looks so much like another wo
