The Alpha's Rejected Daughter 19
There were several grumbles from the pack, but eventually, they all agreed to let me rest and they all headed away to their rooms. I sat down in the living room with disbelief, I almost had her. This was my chance to take her before she masters her powers. So, I was desperate to give myself another shot at her.When I fit to my room, I called Annabelle, but she didn't pick up her phone. Then, as I tried to call her again, her message came into my phone."I shouldn't have done this. Yes, I want Alexander, but I'm not this desperate to hurt my friends or family in the process."When I read the message I dialed her number again, but it went to voicemail."I wanted you let you know that we didn't get her. Alexander got to the person I sent before he could get to Laura." I said then, I took a deep breath."Look, Laura. You shouldn't feel bad even if the plan had gone through. You fought for what you want and so did I, to make it better, it isn't even over for us yet. We'd keep fighting an

Annabelle's POV It was a cold night, and I was walking home from Laura's house. I was lost in thought, replaying the just concluded scene in my head, when I saw Chris walking towards me. My heart skipped a beat, and I could feel my palms getting sweaty. I desperately tried to avoid him, ducking my head and quickening my pace, but it was too late. He had already seen me. "Hey, Annabelle!" he called out. I hurried away, my heart pounding in my chest. I couldn't shake off the feeling that Chris knew something, and I was terrified of what would happen if he found out that I had been conspiring with Dominique behind their backs. As I finally reached my front door, I slumped against it in relief. That had been way too close for comfort. I needed to tell Dominique what had happened and come up with a plan to cover our tracks. When I saw him in the woods earlier, I couldn't tell him, but when I got home I was too scared to hide it from him anymore. I dug out my phone and sent him a quick

I was taken aback by his Laura’s mature response. I hadn’t expected her to react like this. I took a deep breath and looked at Annabelle. “What were you thinking?” I asked, in a much calmer voice. “I thought that if I took Laura away, no one would be able to have you except me.” Annabelle said, tears still streaming down her face. “You don't know how much I love you, and I just couldn’t bear the thought of not being able to get who I want.” I sighed deeply and shook my head. “Annabelle, I do love Laura. And I don't know if you do too. But you can’t just take matters into your own hands like that. Laura is my mate, and I’m responsible for her safety. You can’t just kidnap her because you’re worried about not getting what you want.” Annabelle nodded in agreement and looked down at the ground. “I’m so sorry,” she said, her voice barely above a whisper. “I never meant to cause any harm. I just wanted to..." She ran out of words. “I know,” Alexander said, his voice softening. “But this

Laura's POVI stood at the edge of the crowded room, watching as Annabelle shed her tears for the hundredth time that evening. I couldn't help but feel annoyed at Annabelle's constant need for attention from Alexander. I knew that with every tear Annabelle shed, she tried to worm her way deeper into Alexander's heart. It wasn't fair, not when I had loved him without ever trying to manipulate him. Even after all he put me through.Alexander was leaning in close, studying Annabelle's face with a concerned expression. I knew I had to do something, or else Annabelle would take advantage of any opportunity to steal Alexander's attention away from me."Hey, Alex," I said, tapping him on the shoulder. "Can I talk to you for a second?"Alexander turned towards me, a faint smile playing on his lips. He looked so handsome in his tailored suit and polished shoes. I couldn't help but feel a flutter in my chest every time I looked at him."Of course, Laura," he replied, gesturing for me to follow

Laura crossed her arms and leaned back against the wall, giving me a look of pure contempt. "You know, Clara," she said slowly, "I'm getting really tired of your attitude. You're always trying to start drama or get people on your side. Well, newsflash: nobody likes a whiner." I felt a lump rising in my throat. I couldn't believe she was speaking to me like this, after everything I had been through because of her whoring life. "I'm not a whiner," I said, my voice shaking with anger. "I'm trying to stand up for myself, because nobody else will." Laura let out a harsh laugh. "Stand up for yourself? You wouldn't know how to stand up for yourself if your life depended on it. You're just a pathetic little girl who's always looking for attention." I felt tears welling up in my eyes, but I refused to let her see me cry. "You don't know anything about me," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. "You don't know what I've gone through." "I know everything I need to know," she said smugly. "

Annabelle's POVI arrived at Dominique's house with Clara, but I asked her to wait outside while I try to convince Dominique to buy into the plan, again. I knew I had to convince Dominique that attacking Alexander's pack was the right thing to do, but I also knew it wouldn't be easy especially after that narrow escape he had with the first kidnap case.As I got to Dominique's house, I didn't meet him in the living room, so I was directed to his bedroom by one of his pack members. I knocked at his door when I got there and a voice responded "It's open"I walked into his room and before I could even say hello."Annabelle, what brings you here, again?" he asked, his tone polite but guarded."I said we would meet again, remember? And I have a new plan," I said, trying to sound confident. "I think it's time we took action against Alexander and his pack."Dominique raised an eyebrow. "Why? What's changed?" His face giving "I'm not interested" vibe."They think they're better than us," I sai

Clara's POVI had gone to meet Annabelle after she got released by Alexander. I met her because I was interested in what she did. But I didn't tell her that I want Alexander for myself since that was what she wants too.She was excited about my idea of joining her and she quickly set up a meet with me and Dominique.As I waited outside I heard someone calling my name. I stepped into Dominique's room, my heart racing with anticipation."Clara!"I smiled, feeling a little self-conscious. I was wearing a simple blue dress that I'd borrowed from my cousin, but Annabelle always knew how to make me feel special."Hey, Annabelle," I said, gently. "Who's your friend?"Annabelle turned to Dominique and motioned for him to come closer. He hesitantly stepped forward."Clara, this is Dominique," Annabelle said, introducing me to Dominique. "Dominique, meet Clara."Dominique froze in suspense as I extended my hand to him. He stood there for a few seconds, his eyes fixed on my hand, before finally

Dominique's POV The three of us sat in my in silence, it was like we were all thinking at the same time and seeing Clara was all a shock to me. I knew her to be part of Alexander's pack and I was just surprised at how quickly she turned, especially knowing that she offered herself. I had my reservations and doubts about her because if it's easy for her to turn against a pack she grew up then, it will be easier for her to slit my throat. Clara and Annabelle were lounging on the couch, sipping on glasses of wine and chatting casually. They looked so relaxed, so at ease, that I couldn't help but envy them. They seemed to have it all figured out - Annabelle was going to make her move on Alexander, and Clara was going to help me win over Laura, at least that was what Clara said. It all seemed so simple when they said it like that, but I knew the reality would be much more complicated. "So, Dominique," Clara said, interrupting my thoughts. "Are you ready to get back in the game?" I shru
