All Chapters of Rejected For Another's Mate: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

She still remembered that day. It had rained and the soil was damp and smelled earthy. Selly had been inside when she heard a knock. Deciding to answer the door, she wrapped herself with a scarf and headed out. The sky was already turning into a mixture of black and golden-red hues, a promise of changing seasons. The young woman who looked no more than twenty stood by the entrance. Spotting her late-hour visitor walking towards her with the help of a cane, she decided to meet her half way. “Mother priestess,” Selly’s face lit up as she bowed at the older woman. “I have been thinking about paying you a visit lately but here you are. At her words, a girly chuckle escaped the old woman’s lips. “The sky is rather colorful today that I felt like stretching these old legs of mine.” The woman bowed even deeper than she did, “Apologies for arriving unannounced.” Holding mother priestess' hand, she led her towards a pavilion by the garden. Shortly, a maid arrived with a tray, the ke

Being a veil keeper, she knew the ways of the universe. There was no way that she just found herself into all of this without a reason, be it minor or otherwise. There had to be some connection to what she was searching for. The locator and portal couldn't be both wrong.Crouching down, she held one of the bodies by the neck and checked his upper back.“No rune symbol”, she murmured before she moved to the next.She was not going to take any chances, especially when her time was límited.Gory scenes didn't affect her as she was a shifter herself and had seen worse.Selly sighed, grateful to the universe that her mate wasn't among the dead.For what she could deduce of the situation ,there seemed to be a conflict or worse war. To think that she left her kingdom on the verge of one only to end up in another felt surreal.To go or not to?, she pondered.Well, if I don't find anything of tangible value to my mission then I would just continue searching, she thought and took off in the di

The air was knocked out of her lungs. Selly’s veins constricted with blood rushing in all directions making her feel drained while she was still alive. The words he had said to her cut deeper than any other wound she had endured even in the fiercest of battles she had ever partook in. He didn't even bother to give her a chance to explain. To understand. Her hands shook as she managed to master the courage to speak with her lips vibrating against each other. “You must be joking, right?” Unconsciously drawing a long breath, she held her breath, dreading his answer but none came. “I mean you haven't even heard the whole…” “I don't need to listen to the whole story to distinguish facts from bullshit.” Jordan said. He made sure to maintain his distant and aloof demeanor as he crushed the little hope that was left in her with no regard whatsoever. “No!” Selly took a step back, creating space between them and craned her neck as she stared at his back. Panic gripped her mind

Selly took one calculated step, then another. All the while her eyes never left Aria who stood behind Dominik, hiding like a coward that she was. And yes, there was fear in those blue eyes. She could smell it from where she stood and it gave her some type of satisfaction.The scent on the intruder smelled familiar yet slightly different. Dominik wasn't sure whether he had crossed paths with the shifter before but what confused him more was how she was able to shift when it wasn't the full moon yet. The guards standing on Dominik’s sides were vigilant, not blinking once.The blonde behind him could tell that the wolf's aim was directed at her and she couldn't help but feel her knees turn weaker as seconds went by. Trickles of sweat glided from her upper body and her face glistened with small albeit noticeable droplets.Why was this rogue staring at her with so much HATE?Selly snarled and took a third step before she charged forward.Dominik managed to block his mate, who was now an

Alpha Lewis eyebrows knitted but he didn't say a word.Luna Colette quickly wiped her tears. Being a Luna of one of the strongest packs in Petroit, she was used to not showing any kind of vulnerability in front of spectators but today she knew that she had to pull in the strength from deeper within than she had ever had for her facade not to crumble.Her son being in an unknown state and the other badly wounded had shaken her to the very core of her being. Even the day that little Jordan was almost kidnapped paled against today's incident. At the thought of that fateful day, her mind remembered something important that had somehow gone forgotten amidst the chaos since she set her eyes on an injured Dominik.Where was Selly?The girl had always managed to calm Jordan's wolf with ease when he was little.A thought came, to call her but the situation wasn't feasible.She glanced at her mate but Lewis’ face showed no emotions whatsoever. His face was stoic as everybody was used to seeing
