The Alpha King's Rejected Mate 32
KAEL The radio on his belt crackled again, loud in the quiet. Thane reached down and lifted it, listening with a practiced ease. It was the same kind of radio. Same size. Same static burst. Just like the ones worn by the wolves who had attacked us when we first entered the High Wilds. The thought made my chest tighten. My instincts didn’t like the link. I forced myself to breathe through it. We were far from that place now. At least a week of hard travel. Technology spread fast. If one group had radios, others would too. There was no reason to spiral. “Your people are only a few minutes behind us,” Thane said. He slowed slightly so I could keep pace. His tone stayed even. “One is unconscious, but the others look stable. We have empty quarters where you can rest for now. Still, she should go straight to a healer.” The question slipped out before I could stop it. “Where do you get electricity to charge the radios?” “Solar panels and generators,” he replied without hesitation. “Sa

KAEL Desperation tightened in my chest as my eyes locked on Liora. She was the only one still standing with me. The rest were down. Broken. Bleeding. If I chased after Aria, I would be leaving her alone with three injured wolves who could barely move. That choice felt wrong in every way.Leaving wasn't something I could accept.But neither was letting that creature take Aria."I'll get them awake," Liora said, already moving. Her voice was firm, not shaken. "Go. We'll follow your tracks."I hesitated. Every instinct pulled in opposite directions."Damn it, Kael, go," she snapped, meeting my eyes. "If he wanted her dead, she'd already be dead. He wants something else. You know that. Don't let him have it. Bring her back. I can protect them here."That was it. There was no more time to argue with myself.I let the wolf take over.The world narrowed as I turned and ran. Muscles burned. The ground vanished beneath my paws. The creature was far larger than it should have been, wrong in a

ARIA A deep crashing sound tore through the Blackwood Wilds. It wasn’t just noise. It felt heavy, violent, wrong. Trees were being ripped out and thrown aside like they weighed nothing. Each crash came closer than the last. My mouth went dry.“This is taking too long,” I said, forcing the words out. “If I get caught halfway through a shift…”I stopped. The rest didn’t need saying. Half-shift meant helpless. Helpless meant dead.Behind me, Liora had already changed. Her wolf form stood low and tense, a growl rolling out of her throat. The sound wasn’t loud, but it carried warning. I stepped closer to the fire, heat brushing my legs, and stared ahead as the trees began to bend and split.Something moved fast.A wolf shot out of the darkness and slammed straight into the flames.“Fen,” I swore.I ran forward, grabbed his front legs, and hauled him out of the fire. Flames clung to his fur, bright and hungry. I smacked at them with my hands until he groaned.“He’s alive,” I said quickly t

ARIA We traveled for ten long hours up the mountain and never crossed paths with a single wolf. Not a scent. Not a sound. The quiet pressed in the whole way. The moment we finally stopped, the shift rolled off me and left me standing in my human skin again, cold settling fast into my bones. I shivered hard. My wolf had enjoyed the freedom too much. Every time she stayed out that long, pulling her back felt slower and rougher, like she resisted just to remind me she could.Liora shifted beside me and we dressed without speaking. The silence felt heavy but familiar. She dug through the pack and pulled out the small jar of cream, then nodded toward my knee. “It’s aching again, isn’t it? You should have let him break it. It would’ve healed the right way.”A fallen log sat nearby, half-rotted and worn smooth. I eased myself down and took the jar while she crouched to start a fire. “That’s easy to say for someone who’s never lived under a man’s hand.” The cream warmed as soon as it touche

KAELWe returned to the village with two deer and several rabbits. Word spread fast. People came out from between the buildings and gathered along the path. They formed a loose line, quiet but watchful, and accepted what we brought with careful hands. There was relief in their faces. Hunger recognized food.Eldric stepped forward and clasped my arm, then my hand. His grip was firm, steady."This is more than wonderful," he said. "We thank you for the bounty."Nyssa moved to my side, her smile warm and open, like this place held no danger at all. Aria Blackwood did not join us. She stayed close to Serah, her posture guarded. I felt her eyes on me. Hard. Unmoving.The hunt had never been just about food. It gave me reason to move freely along the Outer Watch. To circle the edges of the village. To see what lay beyond the Iron Boundary. To sense what waited out there.We hadn't crossed paths with a single wolf.That bothered me. Wolves did not simply disappear from their own land. Not wi

ARIAThe shadows around the giant oak shifted, and a moment later, Serah and a young woman stepped from behind its broad trunk. They had been looking up at the branches. Spotting us, Serah smiled warmly and waved us over. "Aria, Nyssa, come meet Tiana. She is our arborist.""Arborist?" I repeated, shaking the blonde woman's hand. "That means you're a doctor for trees?""Exactly right," Serah laughed. "I watch over them and help when I can. But this old oak is not well. It may not last more than a couple of years. These growths are a sign of poor health, and the leaves it drops show invasive beetles are inside.""Is there anything you can do?" I asked."Not for a tree this old and this big, I'm afraid. It has already started to drop dead limbs. So in another year or two, we will talk about taking it down. We can use the wood for building and for fire. We try very hard not to cut down trees that are still healthy."She was a scientist, not a witch. Nyssa had to be disappointed."Aria,"
