Lisa's POV

I forced myself to my feet, my jaw still clenched.

Kael closed the distance between us and leaned toward my ear.

What's he trying to do?

Instinctively, I took a step back, but he caught my wrist before I could move any farther.

"Lisa," he said quietly, "I know you're wondering why I've been so hard on you... but I'm doing it to keep everything in place."

I frowned, searching his face.

"In place?" I repeated.

A faint smile touched his lips. "I spoke with Lucien and Elara last night."

  • The Alpha Rejected Me, So I Became A Warrior    CHAPTER 78

    Lisa's POVTwo stars shimmered side by side in the dark expanse of the night sky.Kael's face softened as he stared at them, a genuine smile slowly spreading across his lips.For some reason, seeing him so fascinated by the stars made me wonder what was going through his mind.I just hoped he wasn't thinking of those silly fairy tales where two stars supposedly represented two people who were in love.“You seem really happy about those stars,” I said.Kael glanced at me before returning his gaze to the sky.“When I was a kid, my mother used to tell me stories about the stars,” he said quietly. “She told me that whenever someone died, their soul would rise into the sky and become a star. She said that was how the dead could still watch over the people they loved.”His smile faded slightly.“I believed her completely, I never thought to question it. But I couldn't get the chance to ask what happens after they became star”I studied his face.His parents were still alive, so why had he n

  • The Alpha Rejected Me, So I Became A Warrior    CHAPTER 77

    Lisa’s POVShe leaned closer to me, her voice barely above a whisper.“Did Jade tell you why they took Wendy away from me?” she asked, sniffing as tears gathered in her eyes.My chest tightened.Jade had never told me the reason.I swallowed hard before pulling her into my arms. She broke down against my shoulder, sobbing uncontrollably as I gently rubbed her back.“You expect me to believe this nonsense?” Lucien’s voice suddenly cut through. “This could all be an act. Lisa would do anything to get my attention, and you honestly think cooking up a story like this will achieve that?”I clenched my jaw.And who wants your ridiculous attention? If it weren’t for Jade, do you think I’d even bother speaking up?Nyra advised. ‘Lisa, calm down. Ignore the fool’“We have no reason to lie about something this serious,” Kael said firmly.“You can lie!” Lucien snapped, his voice cold and accusing.“What exactly would we stand to gain from lying?” Kael challenged.Don’t bother, Kael. Stupidity ha

  • The Alpha Rejected Me, So I Became A Warrior    CHAPTER 76

    Lisa’s POVThe moment the bell stopped ringing, Kael and I exchanged a glance before getting to our feet.Neither of us said a word.I followed him out of the spare room, and the moment we stepped into the corridor, we saw warriors hurrying toward the main hall from every direction.The entire compound was filled with restless whispers.“What happened?”“Did you hear that explosion?”“They said it came from the abandoned tent.”“I heard someone was inside.”My stomach tightened.Kael and I joined the stream of warriors heading toward the hall. The tension in the air was almost suffocating, and with every step, my heart pounded harder against my ribs.As soon as we entered the hall, I spotted Alpha Lucien standing at the center.His jaw was clenched, his expression dark as he stared at the gathered warriors.“I don't understand how that tent exploded.”His voice carried across the hall, immediately silencing the murmurs.“That place was supposed to be secured. No one was allowed anywhe

  • The Alpha Rejected Me, So I Became A Warrior    CHAPTER 75

    Lisa’s POVThe moment Kael stepped through the opening, a deafening roar tore through the air.The force of the blast hurled us backward, and I barely had time to gasp before Kael wrapped both arms around me, pulling me tightly against his chest. His body twisted in midair, positioning himself between me and the flying debris.We crashed onto the ground together.For several seconds, I couldn't hear anything except the ringing in my ears.My heart pounded violently against my ribs as I lifted my head and stared at what remained of the tent.It had been completely destroyed.Smoke billowed into the air, mixing with dust and fragments of fabric. Pieces of wood and debris were scattered across the ground, and the once-standing structure had been reduced to ruins.Everything around me seemed to freeze.Jade… I'm so sorry.A rush of memories suddenly hit me: The argument between us… our trays we had both spilled… the way she had told Mrs. Bella that everything had been my fault… the way

  • The Alpha Rejected Me, So I Became A Warrior    CHAPTER 74

    Lisa’s POVI took a step toward Kael, ready to run to him, but he dragged the sword in his hand across the ground as he forced himself back onto his feet.His uniform was drenched in blood.“Kael,” I called, my voice trembling.But instead of looking at me, he turned toward Varek.Varek had already positioned himself near the unsealed section of the tent, his blade angled toward the opening as he prepared to tear through it and escape.So that was why he had left that section unsealed. He had been planning his escape all along.Kael lunged forward and drove his foot into Varek’s chest, sending him crashing onto his back.“You’re bleeding,” I said, staring at the blood soaking through Kael’s uniform.“Find a way out,” he replied.Before I could respond, Varek pushed himself off the ground and charged at Kael, his sword slicing through the air.Kael raised his own blade just in time as their swords collided with enough force to send a sharp vibration through the tent.My chest tightened

  • The Alpha Rejected Me, So I Became A Warrior    CHAPTER 73

    Lisa’s POVWe tiptoed toward the tent, careful not to make a sound. As we reached the entrance, Kael moved ahead and pressed his ear against the fabric, listening intently.“What nonsense are you spouting?!” Varek’s thunderous voice erupted from inside.There was silence.Then his voice came again, this time filled with disbelief. “What do you mean they’re gone? How the hell did they escape?”“I told them your plan.” Jade’s voice came firmly.My eyes widened.Was that really Jade? She had actually dared to stand up to Varek?Nyra murmured. ‘Maybe she’s finally taking your advice’I frowned.No, I don't think that was it. Jade knew Varek was going to kill her regardless. Maybe she had simply decided she had nothing left to lose.“Jade!” Varek roared. “You little brat!”A sharp slap cracked through the tent.My breath caught.I immediately met Kael’s gaze and gestured toward the entrance.Go in already.But he shook his head.Seriously?Was he planning to wait until Varek killed her?
