The Cursed Alpha's Rejected Mate Chapter One
SELENEMy world was shattering.Piece by piece, it crumbled around me, yet no one seemed to notice.The scent of burning sage and moonflower nectar turned rancid in my throat as I stared ahead, my vision tunneling in on the scene before me. Kaith. Sylvia. Together.His arm curled around her waist, pulling her close, and when she tilted her chin up to him, he leaned down without hesitation, brushing his lips over hers with a tenderness that should have been mine. The full moon bathed them in silver light, making them look almost celestial—two souls bound together, perfectly matched.But that wasn’t how this was supposed to go.Not Kaith. Not him.Who had told me that fate was nothing but a suggestion, that he would choose me, that his wolf had already known long before this night. The same man who made promises that had rooted themselves into my bones, who made me believe—truly believe—that I would not be standing here alone.And yet…Here I was.Alone.A cold gust of wind curled aroun

SELENE"Draven Nightbane. Have you heard of him?" Becky's voice was laced with curiosity as we arranged books back onto the dusty shelves of Ashville Library.I barely paid attention, my fingers tracing the intricate golden embossing on an old leather-bound book that stood out among the rest. Something about it called to me."Not really," I muttered absentmindedly.Becky gasped dramatically. "Are you serious?" she cried. "Wolves from other packs call him the Devil Wolf!"That made me chuckle. "Devil Wolf? What's with that?"She stared at me like I had grown a second head. "You really don’t know what a Devil Alpha is?"I crossed my arms, fixing her with a look. "Why don’t you enlighten me?"She smirked, leaning against the bookshelf. "Fine, I’ll tell you." Her voice lowered slightly, almost as if she feared someone might overhear."In the hierarchy of Alphas, there are five distinct ranks. You probably already know them, but let me break it down anyway."She held up one finger. "First,

DRAVENFate?Destiny?Fuck both of them.Why does everyone bow to the idea of fate? Kiss it’s ass? Why do people let it dictate their lives as if some unseen force is holding their leash? What the hell even is fate? A name? A person? If it is, then fuck that guy, because I carve my own path. I write my own story. And being King means my word is law.Nightbane City. Once, it belonged to the Silverfang Pack. Back then, they were locked in an endless struggle with four other packs, clawing and biting for dominance. So how did my pack take the throne? Simple—power.Fifty years ago, my people lived in Royal City, the heart of the empire. That was before it all fell apart. Betrayal. Bloodshed. Exile. We were cast out like diseased dogs and thrown into this war-ridden wasteland, Nightbane. My father, newly elected to rule, had one mission—reclaim what was ours. He spent his life hunting revenge. Claiming it was His fate. His destiny. His only goal in this fucking life.But guess what? He fu

SELENESuffocating.Their voices crashed over me like relentless waves, drowning me in an ocean of accusations and disbelief. Too many. Too close. Their words clawed at my skin, their hands tugged at my hair, my arms, my clothes—searching, prying, demanding answers I didn’t have."Who are you?" "Why would our Lord choose you?" "A nobody from Royal City? It’s absurd!"I couldn’t move. Their presence coiled around me like a cage, tightening with every whispered insult, every scoff, every questioning glare."Your scent is so faint. Are you even a wolf?" "I can barely sense your bloodline—pathetic!" "No power, no strength… your wolf must be asleep."My breath came in shallow gasps. Their words cut deeper than I expected, slicing open wounds I thought had long since scarred over. It was the same as before, the same mockery. Back in Royal City, I had learned to endure the sneers, the pitying glances, the dismissals. I had steeled myself against the weight of being less in a world where

ALPHA KAITH.My breath came out ragged, my lungs tightening as if they were struggling to contain the storm inside me. The weight of what had just happened bore down on my shoulders, suffocating me. My wolf howled in frustration, clawing at my insides, mourning something I had destroyed with my own hands. Selene’s face flashed in my mind—her shattered expression, the pain I had inflicted on her. And the worst part? She had believed it. Every single word.Sylvia’s obnoxious giggles rang from down the hall, her voice dripping with satisfaction.“Well, you’ve seen her face!” she laughed, as if this were nothing but a cruel joke to her. As if breaking Selene had been some kind of twisted game.Something in me snapped.Without hesitation, I stormed out of my room, my feet carrying me toward her like a force of nature. My pulse pounded in my ears, drowning out everything but the rage flooding through me.Sylvia lounged on the plush sofa, her legs crossed lazily, a glass of champagne balance

SELENEI had never truly spoken with my wolf. While others shared deep conversations with theirs, forming an unbreakable bond, mine remained silent—a distant presence I could barely feel. I envied them, those who could hear their wolves whisper, guiding them, strengthening them. Even during my first transformation under the full moon, when my bones cracked and my body ached, only my eyes changed. She never came forward. In the end, I was nothing more than a spectacle, a failure, a joke.But my shortcomings didn’t stop there. When others awakened their abilities, discovering the strength that made them worthy of their lineage, I stood empty-handed. No gifts, no power. Just a name that carried no weight. An outcast with no origin.The only reason they tolerated me was because Alpha Bruce called me his niece. But even that wasn’t enough. They didn’t see me as one of them, only as a disgrace unworthy of sharing his bloodline. And maybe they were right.For a moment, I thought I had found

SELENEAround thirty minutes past ten, I finally slipped past the men Draven stationed outside my door—shadows cloaked in flesh and muscle, breathing down my neck day and night like loyal hounds.The air was crisp and damp, laced with the faint scent of cedar and stone. I was cloaked in a long black hood that swayed with every hurried step, pants stolen from the lavish wardrobe he so proudly gifted me, and black high-heeled boots that clicked softly against the cobbled ground as I darted into the night.Nightbane was nothing like the Royal City.Perched along the mountainside, the city twisted and layered like a maze carved into the rock. The streets were clean, expertly paved with marble and smooth tarmac. Every building mirrored the next—grey-bricked facades, flat roofs, and silver railings—almost too perfect. The only structure that broke the rhythm was his castle. How anyone found their home here was beyond me.But what truly caught my eye was the people.Humans and wolves. Toget

ALPHA KAITHMy eyes locked on him, seething with pure, unfiltered contempt.James. The very name tasted like ash in my mouth. Not just a direct descendant of that cursed bloodline, but his son. The realization alone was enough to make my blood boil.“Who the hell gave you the right to question me, you arrogant bastard?” I snapped, fury clouding my voice.He growled, stepping forward. “You’re the one who rejected her! Don’t come barking now!”“What did you just say?” I roared, lunging at him. “You wanna go? Huh?! You want a piece of me?!”“Hey! Hey!” Two figures immediately stepped between us—Jacob and Scott, arms stretched out to keep the flames from igniting further.“Gentlemen,” Scott said, his voice stern. “Have you both lost your damn minds? We’re on the same side! We’re here to rescue Selene!”Jacob nodded, turning to me. “Kaith, we’re not enemies here.”“Fuck that!” I snapped, shoving forward against Jacob’s arm. “That idiot lost her in the first place. Why should I work with

DRAVEN“I see,” Selene murmured, her voice soft. “So when Draven marked me… that was the trigger?”“Yes,” Grandma Jade replied, “But in your case, it’s quite peculiar.”My eyes narrowed. “How so?”Jade set down her grinding stone and looked straight at me, her gaze unreadable yet piercing. “Your awakening is different. I felt it the moment I laid hands on you. You don’t just sense emotions… you absorb them. You breathe them in like air. Tell me, child—have you spoken with your wolf yet?”She hesitated. “Well… not exactly. I can feel her, like a whisper in my chest, but I can’t reach her.”Jade’s sigh was laced with both frustration and awe. “As I suspected. You're more attuned, more delicate—more superstitious. Just like the Moon Goddess. Her first ability wasn’t raw power. It was perception. She could see through falsehoods, sense the truths hidden beneath masks. But even she, in the beginning, couldn’t hear her wolf.”I scoffed lightly. “Grandma, where do you even get this stuff fro
The Cursed Alpha's Rejected Mate Chapter Twenty One
SELENEA choking scent of herbal medicine dragged me back to consciousness.Warmth cradled me. Light spilled through a small window, soft and golden, as I blinked against the glow. The place smelled of wildflowers, smoke, and something old. I pushed myself up slowly, wincing.I was inside a modest cottage, rustic and steeped in tradition. Animal skins draped the walls, alongside weathered totems and delicate carvings of wolves. My wrist, which I remembered being badly injured, was completely healed. Not a single bruise or mark. What was more surprising... I felt normal. No heaviness. I was dressed in a traditional saree, patterned with celestial symbols, fitting me so perfectly it felt as if it had been tailored by fate. On the floor near the door were a pair of woven sandals, waiting.Voices murmured outside. I crept to the door, and the first thing that hit me was a gust of cool, salty breeze. My breath caught.A breathtaking shore spread before me—children laughing, dancing in th

SELENEI felt something warm stir inside me.A vivid image—white fur, large paws, eyes that glowed like silver moons—loomed before me. A wolf. Huge and breathtaking, with a presence so gentle yet powerful, I could barely breathe.I was standing in a realm made entirely of energy. It buzzed beneath my feet, vibrated in my veins. Every inch of me felt connected—to everything. It was terrifying and beautiful at once.The wolf stared at me. And somehow… I knew her. “Are you…?” I asked, my voice barely a whisper. “Am I dead?”“Not yet, Selene. It’s not time,” she said. Her voice wasn’t words—it was a howl that resonated straight into my soul. “You need to stop Draven from killing them. When the time is right, I will speak again. But for now… stay with him. No matter what.”“What?” I fumbled, eyes widening as wind began to pull her away. “What are you saying?”“Draven is the only hope this world has. He is our hope. Stay with him,” she howled—faint and fading as her image was carried of

ALPHA JAMESI couldn’t move.This wasn’t fear. It wasn’t adrenaline or shock locking up my body.This was control.Something had taken over.My legs were frozen—not stiff, not numb—but disconnected. Like the line between my brain and my limbs had been severed. I told them to run, to lunge, to do anything. They didn’t listen.They couldn’t.“Glad to see you three again.”Draven.He stepped out from the curling smoke, red embers dancing at his heels like the floor burned where he walked. That same damn smile played on his lips.My blood boiled.“Draven!!” I growled, pushing every nerve to move, but my legs still refused. Then, just as I tried again, everything broke.He lifted his hand slightly.“Can I have her back?”“No, fuck—!”I tried to spit the words, to hold Selene tighter, but my hands… moved on their own.I watched, horrified, as my fingers uncurled, my arms stretched forward, offering her to him like some sick ritual.“What the fuck?!” Kaith shouted behind me. “What the hell a

ALPHA CARLOSThe sky cracked open with fury.Clouds churned like boiling tar overhead, rumbling with a wrathful growl. Lightning cleaved through the sky in violent forks, striking down into the shattered ruins of the once-proud hall. Thunder rolled across the land like a war drum as unnatural winds howled within, clashing with razor-sharp ice spears and spiraling tornadoes that ripped through the air like wild beasts.The atmosphere inside the hall was no longer earthly — it was war.“Everyone evacuate! NOW!!” Lyon’s voice tore through the chaos, hoarse and commanding, as he shoved Union members toward the exits. His eyes burned with urgency as debris and frost slashed across his face. “Carlos! Jessicah!” he barked, “Contamination Plan Delta— activate the gun! Now!!”“What are you saying!” I shouted, stumbling against the whirlwind, eyes wide. “You can’t be serious—we can’t unleash that here!”“We don’t have a damn choice!” Lyon snapped, grabbing me by the collar. “The Lords have fal

ALPHA GORDON BLAKEHis incomplete transformation was a terror unlike anything from twenty-five years ago.He was a walking nightmare of tangled power and rage. His very presence twisted the air, heavy and choking, the shadows crawling around his form like living things. The terror he exuded was mincing. I had waited too long to kill the monster that stole my mate.“Everyone evacuate!” I barked through the cracking air.Lyon was already moving, leading the Union members out like a wall of discipline against chaos. "My Lords! Leave the evacuation to us — you deal with that monster!" he cried, voice cutting sharp over the roar of collapsing stone.He didn't have to say it twice. Bruce was already moving, his body igniting in arcs of crackling electricity, each step sending shockwaves of pressure outward. Draven, still in his massive beast form, charged forward — each thunderous step splintered the marble beneath his claws, deep fissures spiderwebbing toward the support pillars. His

BECKY BLAKE“Becky?” Selene’s voice cracked through the thick air, ragged and trembling. “What ritual?”Her question shattered something inside me.Right. It wasn’t exactly a ritual. The nature of my ability—something I had never spoken about in full. Something I barely understood myself. I could steal power. Rip it from its host with a specific moonstone and place it within another. It sounded noble in theory, like passing on a torch.But the reality was far more brutal.Why Selene, though? Why her?She was a weak wolf—fragile, powerless. No known abilities. No strength to her aura. A sleeping wolf spirit that barely stirred even in danger. And yet… they wanted her.Alpha Bruce stepped forward, his piercing stare drilling into my soul. He handed me something I had only read about in my mother’s journals— A silver moonstone.A relic so rare. Said to be capable of containing powers so potent they could unravel realms. I had never used it before—never even seen one in real life.“Begi
The Cursed Alpha's Rejected Mate Chapter Fifteen
BECKY BLAZESince growing up, I always knew I was different.My father said I inherited my mother’s ability. She died when I was just five. Scratch that—she was murdered. By him. The Devil Wolf. The self-proclaimed Alpha King.I grew up resenting him with every fiber of my being.He told me once—just once—to watch over Selene. Back then, she was this fragile, quiet thing. Weak. Overlooked. But still… he said to befriend her. To stick by her, no matter what.“She’s different,” he told me. “And for our revenge, we need her.”So I did. I got close. I made her laugh. And before I knew it, she wasn’t just some mission—she was my best friend.Selene was… fun. Weirdly fun. But somehow, without warning, she became the center of every fucked-up storm we got dragged into.First, she fell for that bastard Kaith. Ugh. Kaith. I hated him with every bone in my body.Then he turns around and chose Sylvia. Yeah—another name I spit like poison. And somewhere in that mess… Selene ended up bei
The Cursed Alpha's Rejected Mate Chapter Fourteen
ALPHA JAMES“What the hell do you guys want?” I spat, glaring across the table at both Kaith and Sylvia. Just seeing them there—calm, collected, unbothered—set my blood on fire.“Can’t you see I’m having lunch?” Kaith shot back, lazily raising a brow as he took a bite from his plate, chewing like I wasn’t two seconds from flipping the whole damn table.It had been three days since our humiliating defeat— Three days since we barely escaped with our lives.Alpha Jude had found and dragged us back to Royal City. Sure, we owed our lives to those three… but that didn’t mean I had to like them. No, I couldn’t stand them.To make matters worse, my father had forbidden us from attempting to breach Nightbane again. His word was law in Royal City, and with the number of spies watching us, we couldn’t even fart without someone reporting it.“Hey!” Kaith snapped suddenly. “Are you even sure you're really the son of the Oblivion Wolf? With how weak you are and all?”That did it.“Okay, bastard—y
