The Rejected Heiress 11. Return
Chapter 11...Estelle’s POVWe returned to the Pack House the next day just as the sun dipped lower in the sky, staining the stone walls in a dull orange glow. Zen had a cave in the woods where he usually spent time alone, so we had passed the night there in awkward silence. The moment we stepped inside, it felt like the air was unusually tense. I turned to say something to break the tension between us but the words stuck in my throat. Besides, I was in no mood to speak to him. A uniformed maid walked up to us as we walked through the large hallway, “Alpha Zen,” she had a polite smile on her face, “the council is gathered in the advisory room. I was told to inform you that they would like to see you.” I saw Zen's hand clamp into a fist. Whatever this was about, Zen obviously did not like it. “I'll go to my room,” I said, not wanting to be any part of what this was. Zen gave me a stern look, “you're following me.” “Why? Are assassins waiting in my room for me?” my response was
The Rejected Heiress 10. Intimate
Chapter 10...Estelle’s POVI swallowed, licked my lips, and looked away while rolling my eyes. “What now? You’re going to accuse me of being a spy? Anything to feed your narrative, is it not?”Zen’s hands latched onto my face gently and made me face him. “I never said anything like that, Estelle. I’ll repeat your words to you: who hurt you that makes you think the way that you? But I mean, I already know.”“Well, I didn’t stick around to listen much,” I told him, blinking rapidly to fight my tears. To say I felt overwhelmed would have been an understatement.“Like, just let me go wherever I want to go. I can't just stay here.”“And so I let you go wherever you want to go, Estelle? You get killed on the road or something. And if you don't get killed, is there any place who would welcome you as much as I have welcomed you?”“If that is your definition of welcome, then I'm sure that I am not educated properly.”Zen scoffed and let out a huff. “So what happens to your revenge arc? I t
The Rejected Heiress 9. Escape
Chapter 9...Estelle’s POVI had spun out of the dining area, bumping right into Byron in the hallway. He gave me a look with slight disgust on his features. I paused, blinking back tears. I wiped them hastily when I heard the word “assassin,” and the Beta did have some conspiracies about me.I didn't stay to listen further because I felt Zen would agree with him. My being here meant that I would never be welcomed. The maids didn't even respect me, and Zen, who was supposed to teach me, who was supposed to help me get my revenge, didn't even trust me enough.All his promises had been false, and now he was listening to people feeding him whatever information they had about me. What was the point of anything?At first, I had gone back to my room, lying down and staring at the ceiling, counting the tiles on it. But even as I lay there, I knew it was only a matter of time before I would be called and probably beheaded, humiliated, and stripped of dignity. I’d rather kill myself than fa
The Rejected Heiress 8. Plot
Chapter 8...Zen’s POVThe moon be cursed.How did I not know from the start that Estelle was a fury flame I could not put out?I should have seen past all that wreckage the betrayal had caused.“Don’t,” I whispered again, trying to pry the knife gently away from her hands.“You have no right to tell me what to do,” she spat, looking at me with glossy blue eyes that held so much hatred. I could see the pain in them, and it broke something inside of me. “Estelle. Don’t do what you’ll regret,” I said in a gentle voice.Her hand shook lightly and slowly her resolve weakened. I lowered her hands gently to her side let out a breath I didn’t even know I was holding. Why did I care of she killed her self or not? Was she of any benefit?She scoffed and pushed me away, hurling the knife across the room. I watched as it embedded itself firmly into the wall. She stormed away angrily, and then I sighed. Was there any point in chasing after her?“Well, that was something,” a voice called fr
The Rejected Heiress 7. A Dinner
Chapter 7...Estelle’s POV“Alpha Zen has requested you have dinner with him in his chambers.”“I’m sorry, what?” I asked the maid, quite flustered.She blinked once in annoyance. “You heard me.”I watched as she walked away. I was irritated by her attitude, but honestly, could I even blame her? I was an intruder in their land and was already having a private dinner with the alpha.Sighing, I walked towards the closet that had clothes that had been provided for me by Alpha Zen. I wished I had a friend or at least someone who was nice to me.I’d have been able to ask for advice on what to wear.I didn’t want to wear something too simple because, well— I was meeting with the alpha. At the same time, I did not want it to be seen as if I was trying too much.In the end, I settled for a floral blue evening dress.Alpha Zen was late. And by late, I didn’t mean fifteen minutes late.He was about an hour late and when he eventually strode into the room, he didn’t even acknowledge my presen
The Rejected Heiress 6. Cursed
Chapter 6...Zen’s POV. I smiled at the statement she made. Well at least she was no longer the weak and emotional little girl sulking over her fathers betrayal. It was quite baffling though and I found it a little too convenient that he would treat his heir that way. A part of me whispered this might all be a plan of a larger conspiracy and I would not see the set up coming. “I shall see you later Estelle,” i said as i walked away, not waiting for a response. “Zen!” A voice called out, east of me. I slowed to a stop and lifted the brows at Byron, my beta. “Yes.”“The girl,” he said. “What happened to her?”“You’re really keeping her here? Under immunity?”“Yes. Do you have a problem with that?” I inquired. “You want something from her don’t you?” Byron smirked. Of course I did. I wasn’t going to keep someone who was useless around me. I needed to figure out what she was and manipulate her into using it for my benefit. Then I also needed to really determine if her presenc
