Heads whipped around, murmurs rippling through the hall as Maya’s eyes landed on a familiar face. Her lips parted in shock, a faint gasp escaping before she could stop it.

“Zara?” she breathed, her heart hammering in her chest.

Kane’s dark gaze snapped toward the intruder, his voice like thunder as it echoed across the room. “And who are you to tell me what to do?” His growl reverberated, shaking even the air.

Zara swallowed hard, her hands trembling at her sides. “I–I’m sorry, Alpha. I didn’t

  • The Rejected Luna   Chapter Seventy Five: unexpected encounter

    It had been weeks since the visit of Alpha Zane and Maya had returned to normal. She seemed to have healed from her sister's death because she was seen sparring in the garden with Camilla while Jenna sat nearby cheering them on.Camilla allowed Jenna to be there only because of Maya's insistence that her friend join them. The clashing of swords echoed through the air mixed with their laughter and playful words as they trained together."Maya your strikes are too poor," Camilla teased as she blocked another attempt. "I can take you with one arm.""C'mon I dare you," Maya replied as she landed another strike that made Camilla lose her balance slightly and stagger a little to the side."You see?" Maya chuckled with satisfaction. "Less talk.""Nice one Maya," Jenna chipped in from where she sat watching and Maya smiled at the encouragement from her friend.Twenty minutes later they sat around a fire with the smell of roasted meat wafting through the air as they took a break from their tra

  • The Rejected Luna   Chapter Seventy Four: Not Under my Watch

    Maya got to the courtyard and the moment she locked eyes with Alpha Zane she felt a rush of emotions flooding through her entire body. Memories came clashing together all at once overwhelming her senses.She remembered how he had rejected her in front of the entire pack and called her names that still echoed painfully in her mind. She remembered how he had chosen her sister instead of accepting her as his true mate despite what the Moon Goddess had decreed.But he was under a spell her subconscious whispered trying to offer some reasoning for his past actions. He should have guarded himself like a true Alpha and he wouldn't end up being manipulated like this by black magic.On sensing her hesitation Zane walked toward her slowly with his hands slightly raised as if approaching a frightened animal that might bolt at any sudden movement."Maya," he called out his voice thick with pain and regret. "I wronged you please forgive me."After several seconds of tense silence Maya finally lift

  • The Rejected Luna   Chapter Seventy Three : The Memories

    Maya opened her eyes and squinted to adjust to the dim light of the room only to recognize that she was in Alpha Kane's chamber lying on his bed. She looked around but found no one else present in the room and slowly the memories came flooding back to her all at once."Luna Zara was beheaded because of black magic," the words kept ringing in her ears over and over refusing to fade away no matter how much she wished they would.Tears rolled down Maya's face as the reality of what had happened settled into her heart. "Zara noo," she whispered amidst her sobs. "I never wanted it to end like this."She had flashbacks of how she and Zara had been close before everything changed. Before the shifting sage arrived and before the no wolf chaos began and before the mate disaster tore their family apart completely."Maya come I will make you paper jet," ten year old Zara had called out to nine year old Maya who ran eagerly toward her sister without paying attention to where she was stepping. May

  • The Rejected Luna   Chapter Seventy Two: Devastating News

    Everyone turned toward the source of the desperate scream and saw Agatha running to the front of the crowd with tears streaming down her face. She fell on her knees immediately in front of Alpha Zane her whole body trembling with grief and desperation."Please Alpha temper justice with mercy," she begged as tears poured down her face uncontrollably. "She's still my daughter no matter what terrible things she's done."Beta Atheus couldn't contain the shock of what he had just witnessed and heard. He fell with a thud collapsing onto the floor as the weight of everything crashed down on him at once. Some concerned pack members rushed forward immediately to help him and carried him toward the pack healer for treatment."Woman I've spoken," Alpha Zane said firmly without any hint of softening in his decision. "My judgment has been made and it will not be changed based on tears or pleading.""Guards drag her out," he ordered as he turned away from the pitiful scene of Agatha kneeling and be

  • The Rejected Luna   Chapter Seventy One: Judgement

    Alpha Zane sat there for some minutes after the seer left reminiscing about everything that had happened over the years. His mind replayed countless memories that now made sense in a completely different light now that he understood the truth about the black magic.He kept cursing and blaming himself for letting his guard down and allowing such dark magic to be used against him without ever noticing the manipulation. How could he have been so blind to what was happening right under his nose for so long?Then he stood up abruptly his decision made and his resolve hardening with each passing second. "Theodore," he screamed and Theodore hurried over immediately at the sound of his Alpha's commanding voice."Go and ring the bell," Zane ordered. "Assemble all pack members here right now."Theodore hurried off to do as he was told without asking any questions about the reason behind such an urgent gathering. About five minutes later the pack house was filled to the brim with confused and cu

  • The Rejected Luna   Chapter Seventy: The Prophecy

    Zara could be seen kneeling in the middle of the pack house with her legs and hands chained tightly together. Her head hung down toward the floor and one of her eyes was swollen shut from where she had apparently been struck.Alpha Zane sat not far from her on his throne with his face red from barely contained fury. He stared at her chained form, trying to process what he had just learned about her deception and manipulation."Speak Zara before I descend on you," Zane commanded, his voice thick with anger. "Tell me everything you did and why you did it."But Zara didn't move and didn't utter a single word in response to his demand. She remained silent with her head bowed refusing to look up at him or offer any explanation for her actions.After several seconds of tense silence that stretched on unbearably Zane suddenly punched the stone wall beside his throne with enough force to crack the surface. The vein in his neck stood out visibly as his rage continued building with each passing
