All Chapters of ONCE REJECTED, NOW HIS OBSESSION: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Leah’s POVThe morning sun crept into my room, but its warmth didn’t reach me. I hadn’t slept. After everything Dante told me, the truths he'd held back and the way he'd stared into my soul and uttered those words, I couldn't even bring myself to sleep even if tried. “I’ve dreamed of you my entire life” I couldn’t find peace, not in my heart, not in my head.But I stayed. Regardless of the fact that I wanted to leave so badly yesterday, I knew I had too many unanswered question I didn’t know if it was foolishness, curiosity, or something deeper binding me here, but I stayed. Only on one condition.He had to let me search for my truth.Dante agreed without protest, almost like he’d been waiting for me to demand it. I didn’t trust his silence, but I needed answers more than I needed distance.Kiara and Eliana stood on either side of me in the pack house library as I paced, arms crossed, heart beating too fast. Regardless that Kiara was Dante's sister, she didn't really know what he wa

DANTEAfter the incident that night I was a step away from running mad. The attack had come out if no where and that bastard possessed with dark magic almost killed her but for some reason she wanted to save him. I could see the pure horror in her eyes as the shadows suck the life out of him. Elias had been one of my guards a very long time ago until he disappeared.The scent of blood lingered in the morning air, metallic and cold, as I stood at the southern outpost overlooking. The wind carried with it the bitter perfume of ash and ruin. Three enemy survivors knelt before me, bound and beaten, their heads low, their bodies trembling not from the cold, but from the weight of what they had seen.I was boiling with rage and the blood in my hand was obvious from them. Regardless of them being just warriors I was fighting myself not to kill them, I was going to find every information I needed to take whoever dared to attack my pack. Without thinking, I dragged one of them into the build

LEAHEverything seemed quite and the air was thicker. I could barely breathe but everything in me screamed from me to walk through everything and it giving a single damn about itMy eyes felt heavy and I felt the need to sleep but I couldn't, my eyes couldn't close for the life of me and everything before me was just a shimmer of blood and hat radiates from every corner of the roomWhat had happened to Elias was still fresh in my mind like it had happened just where I was standing. Grabbing my cloak and putting it upon my shoulder I walked gently but my mind raced to different corners of the world while I struggle to breathe I didn’t know where I was going only that my feet knew. I moved as though possessed, I wished I was possessed so everything in my head didn't have to be trueI continued to walk, down to the west wing, past the training hall, through a narrow servant’s passage I’d never seen before and finally, to a stairwell that I had grown to adoreMy feet grew cold as I stepp

DANTEThe woman who stood before me was no longer my wife but the queen of this kingdom. The woman who will break the curse that lurk upon us for centuries, the woman in the prophecyI watched her eyes slowly turn a shade of mixed red and blue but my heart still feared. I haven’t seen Victor since I got here and that was worrisome, his army is unlike anytime I’ve ever seen, and I wanted to believe that Victor was still not alive, that bastard couldn’t be alive but could feel his presence“Leah?” I got no response, but her lips moved fast, she was whispering something I couldn’t hear and when I listened closely it was complete gibberish I still couldn’t understandThe ground beneath me began to shake and the surrounding air began to pick, everything and everyone came to a pause and bodies began to fall like trees, it all seemed unreal, impossible and the colors drained from my face as I saw a figure lurk within the bodies and his cape was pulled off Chills ran through my bones as reco

LEAH I jolt awake, and I am in my room alone. My body felt like I had been thrown into the pit of hell, taking a deep breath I looked around, and my mind flooded with memories of what had happened. DanteI threw the cover off me and immediately reached for the door, but I paused when I realized what I was wearing. I couldn't go out this way, my husband better not be dead, but I couldn't go out like this, especially when I haven't seen the people after the war. Without thinking, I switched my dress fast before pulling my hair out of it's messy bun. I honestly didn't care what my face looked like but I pull the door completely startling the guard. “You're majesty, you're awake I…"“Where's the king?” He swallowed, and I stepped closer to him, making him shiver “where the hell is he?”“The office” I furrowed my eyebrows confused “The office? How long have I been out?”“Three days!”“Three days!!!” I raised my eyebrows in shock before holding my dress up and storming to the office.
