The Rejected Heiress Chapter 25
CHAPTER 25ELIASThe glittering city lights, the tall buildings,the excitement from the taverns and flock of people.I loved this city.It reminded me that I chose correctly, that I abandoned weakness and clung to ambition. I was meant for more and I knew so. And yet, my lips refused to lift in joy.How could I smile?Estelle.That rejected wolf. The one I discarded without hesitation. The one I convinced myself was nothing more than a burden. I chose Annette, and I have never once questioned that decision.Not until today.Estelle, the girl I considered discarded shoes, was now worn by my rival, Zen.The irony; what I cast aside now looked more polished, elevated, far more valuable than when it belonged to me.Zen, that illegitimate bastard stood there, tall and smug, lifting his hand just enough for the cameras to catch a gleam of the ring.Her
The Rejected Heiress Chapter 24
Chapter 24 The PastAnnette “Mummy, mummy,” I tapped my mother, “look at what I made.” My mother glanced briefly at my painting but she made no comment. She turned her attention to what had occupied her earlier; my sister's drawing of her. “Estelle is simply talented!” one of her friends in the parlour spoke up as she passed Estelle's drawing to her. I watched as her mother's eyes lit up with pride as Estelle's work was passed around her friends while hers was ignored. My little fingers balled up in a fist as I thought about all the ways I could hurt Estelle. I walked out of her mother's weekly tea sessions and went to look for her sister, holding my deserted painting behind her. “Annette?” I turned to see my father leaning over the rails around the inner courtyard. “Father?” I looked up to see my father smile at me. He carried my small body into his arms and spun me around. “What do w
The Rejected Heiress Chapter 23
Chapter 23 Annette’s POVI paced anxiously in my perusian styled parlour as I waited anxiously for Caleb. He was meant to be here thirty minutes ago but he was yet to come and that troubled me because he was never late. Had something happened on his way? Perhaps he had been caught on my errand. How would I explain to Elias? What would I say happened? As a mirage of thoughts passed through my mind, I heard a knock on my oak door. I practically leaped to the door and opened it, allowing the fully armoured knight in. I shut the door gently behind us and looked at him anxiously. He took off the armour on his head and spoke. “Lady Annette,” he bowed his head. “Get right to it, Caleb,” I hissed, anxious for news, “we do not have much time.” He nodded. “Lady Estelle appears to be flourishing in…” “Lady Estelle? Again?” I snapped. “Estelle. Estelle. How hard is it for you to just call her by name?” I had corrected Caleb several times in the past about this. I had warned him not to addre
The Rejected Heiress 22. Council Meeting
Chapter 22ZenI sat at the head of the long wooden table in the meeting hall. I could feel the eyes of the six elders watching me from across the room. The morning sun was coming through the windows, making the dust dance in the air, but I didn't find the sight relaxing at all. My head was throbbing from the lack of sleep, and every time I closed my eyes, I kept seeing the way Estelle had called me a coward before walking away from me in the garden."The banquet was a failure, Zen," Elder Thomas said, breaking the quiet that had filled the room for the last ten minutes. He was the oldest member of the council, and he always spoke with a slow pace that made me want to grind my teeth."It wasn't a failure," I argued, though I knew I was lying to myself as much as I was lying to them. I leaned back in my chair and tried to look like I wasn't bothered by the way they were all staring at me.Elder Thomas shook his head and folded his hands on top of the table. "The point of the banquet w
The Rejected Heiress 21. Argument
Chapter 21ZenI watched Ken disappear into the darkness of the path, and I waited until I couldn't hear his footsteps anymore before I finally turned back to Estelle. My heart was beating very fast against my ribs, and my wolf was still pacing around in my head, scratching at my thoughts because he wanted me to claim her right then and there. But I just couldn’t. I was alpha and she was the enemies daughter. I was supposed to kill her even… I was supposed to hate her. But a part of me couldn’t bear to do it. Fuck me. Estelle was standing by the edge of the pool again, and she looked perfectly calm, which only made me feel more frustrated."Were you really going to say yes to him?" I asked. I felt a pulse of anger move through my chest when I thought about her living in Ken's territory.She didn't look at me, but she reached down to pick up a small stone from the ground and tossed it into the water. "He offered me a life where I wouldn't be looking over my shoulder every five m
The Rejected Heiress 20. Mine
Chapter 20 Zen I had been walking around the grounds when I saw Estelle by herself by the pool. I had been drawn to speak to her but what was I to say? I had been rather erratic lately going from stopping her from self harm to trying to kill her. I was at my wits end on what to do with Estelle. I did not know if I ought to kill her or keep her. Or perhaps do as Bryon said and give her away so she was no longer my problem. I watched her as she walked carefully around the edge of the pool. In times like now I wanted to forget about the monster she could become or that she already was and swoop her into my arms. She looked ethereal as always this evening. Her slender frame was graceful. From where I stood she looked like an angel that could do no harm. “Stop fighting this,” my wolf said. “You must be wrong,” I said softly, “she cannot be my mate.” “Then it does not bother you that Ken is flirting with her right now? Why is he on his knees?” I blinked rapidly. I had been so focused
