The council stayed in a massive building a bit of a distance away from the pack house.

It looked like it was built in another century. It had stone walls and a gate so high it resembled a prison. As we drove in, the smell of incense and sage filled my nose.

“They like to burn sage here,” Elias explained. “Something about good luck.”

The car stopped in front of a pair of massive metal doors. A man in a long flowing robe stood there waiting for us. He stared at the window like he could see throug

  • The Lycan's Rejected Mate   CHAPTER 38: ISADORA

    I didn’t go back to my room.It was probably the first place Elias would look for me if he wanted to find me.Instead, I went down a random hallway. I had no idea where I was going, but I kept my head high like I knew the halls well and kept moving.Every few minutes, I’d pass an unassuming guard or maid who would bow to me and walk past. Still, I didn’t stop or ask for directions. I just kept walking until I found myself at the end of a hallway.There was a pair of wooden double doors with a sigil branded on it in front of me.It should’ve been my sign to turn back, but instead, I found myself heading towards the doors. I reached for the handle and surprisingly, it was open.I wasn’t sure what I was expecting, but a dark room was not the case. It took me a second to find the light switch, and once I did, my mouth fell open.It was some sort of shrine or memorial to the past Alphas, and I knew that because right in front of me was the picture of a man who as the splitting image of Eli

    As soon as we returned to the pack house, Isadora rushed out of the car.I couldn’t help but smile sadly as I watched her retreating figure disappear into the building. I knew why she was running. I would’ve thought that after everything, she’d be more inclined to explore our mating, but whatever that bastard had done to her was clearly worse than I thought.“What did you do to her?” Carlos drawled as I got out of the car. “I’ve never seen a woman run that fast before.”I rolled my eyes. “What do you want, Carlos?”“There’s news.”I stilled.There was only one thing that I’d asked him to keep an eye on.“Is it-”He nodded. “I’ll show you.”I followed him to my office. It was the only place in this entire fucking pack house that I considered safe enough to have certain discussions.I had it swept twice a week for bugs and listening devices, and I was the only one with a key to the place.Once we were safely in, I shut the door behind me. “Tell me.”“We found some wolves snooping around

    It took me a moment to realize what had just happened, and once I did, I let out a breath of relief.I didn’t know what to do or how to respond to their bow, so I tipped my head forward a little. “Thank you.”They rose as one and I watched in shock as they simultaneously took down their hoods. I was right about their ages, these men were old and they looked like clones of each other—bald heads and narrow eyes. They looked to be closer to the end of their lives than the beginning.“Our appearance shocks you, doesn’t it?” one of them asked with a small smile.“How long have you lived?”“Too long. You will soon enjoy the curse that is long life.”The answer was vague, and I knew that was the best I’d get. Elias must’ve realized it too because he nodded and stood to his feet, gently guiding me to mine as well.“Thank you for having us. We must leave.”“Of course, Allow us to walk you out.”The council moved like a well oiled unit. They walked with the same feet, their steps so silent on t

    The council stayed in a massive building a bit of a distance away from the pack house.It looked like it was built in another century. It had stone walls and a gate so high it resembled a prison. As we drove in, the smell of incense and sage filled my nose.“They like to burn sage here,” Elias explained. “Something about good luck.”The car stopped in front of a pair of massive metal doors. A man in a long flowing robe stood there waiting for us. He stared at the window like he could see through it, and my heart began to hammer in my chest.“Everything will be fine,” Elias assured me. “They will love you.”He got out of the car first and opened my door for me. I took his hand and let him help me out. The man in the robe still hadn’t stopped staring at us the entire time. His expression hadn’t shifted from its careful neutrality, but I could see curiosity in his eyes.It was obvious that he was a wolf. He didn’t have the same terrifying aura that the other lycans had and he avoided loo

  • The Lycan's Rejected Mate   CHAPTER 34: ISADORA

    Carlos stayed with me all day, and by the time we went back in for dinner, I felt weirdly relaxed and less stressed about the upcoming meeting with the council.I never expected that I’d find solace in his company, but I was quickly learning that he wasn’t as tough as he liked to portray himself.No one said a thing about the grass in our hair or the water on our feet when we arrived for dinner. Elias just smiled at me as I took the spot next to him and Erina filled dinner with chatter about her day.Felicity didn’t show up, and it truly was the most beautiful dinner I had in a while. It felt… domestic. I could almost see us doing it for more years to come and that scared me a little.After dinner, I retired to my room immediately, not waiting to see if anyone wanted to speak to me. I knew it was dismissive, and a part of me felt bad about it, but there were too many things on my mind for me to focus on that.I wasn’t sure what time I managed to fall asleep, but when I woke up, it was

    I picked a smooth pebble off the floor and tossed it into the pond, watching as it rippled over the surface before sinking to the bottom.It didn’t do much to calm the confusion in my heart, so I searched for another.This time, it barely bounced twice before sinking and I cursed. I tried to find another, but none seemed to be smooth enough. I was just about to give up when a hand appeared in my vision, and in it was a smooth pebble.“This one should work.”I looked up to find Carlos standing in front of me. He had one hand shoved in his pocket, and the other held the smooth pebble.I watched him with apprehension and suspicion.“How did you know I was here?” I asked but he didn’t respond, he merely urged me to take the pebble.“Try it.”I hesitated for a moment before taking it from him. I threw it like I did the others and smiled when I rippled over the waves a handful of times.“Thank you.”He waved me off. “If you’re looking for smoother stones, you’ll likely find them around the

    I waited for the punch line, for him to say it was a joke, but it never came.It was the same thing Erina had said, but somehow, hearing it from him made it sound a little more eerie.“You cannot just kill people because I’m hurt,” I crossed my arms across my chest. “That’s absurd.”He shrugged.“W

    Her statement wasn’t as comforting as she thought it was. It only had me feeling more suspicious. There was no way he’d kill his own friend just for upsetting me… right?“Sit,” she urged, pulling me towards the chair. “The maids will be out soon with our food.”As if on cue, about three maids stepp

    The coffee came within minutes and the waitress bowed low, her eyes flickering between the both of us and our whispered voices.“Do you do this often?” I asked as I took a sip from my coffee. “They don’t seem surprised to see you.”“I make it a habit to see my pack and keep a close eye on them.”“W

    “Let me help you with that,” Erina’s voice filled the room and I turned to find her leaning against my doorway.I stilled, hand in hair and let her take over.I could handle my hair, I’d been doing it since I was a child seeing as I didn’t have anyone to teach me, but I allowed her. Taming my hair
