All Chapters of Alpha's Rejection: My Mate Has A Son: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

Alaric's POVThe first thing I did when I broke up with Lily was to go look for Samantha. I felt like a huge burden had been lifted from me. I desperately wanted to see her, to run to her, to breathe in the air around her. Even if I didn't say a thing, I just wanted to be in Samantha's presence because I couldn't tell Samantha the truth yet. I was only an Alpha heir, and my father still called the final shots, so I had to protect her still.I had stopped by her door and tried to sniff out her scent in the room. Even though I could perceive it, it wasn't strong enough to prove that she was in the room. Even Adrian's smell wasn't as strong either. Where could they have gone? It wasn't past Samantha's bedtime, maybe for Adrian, but Samantha could be at the lab. So I went there to find it locked. I mind-linked Adam; I was getting really desperate about it. I just needed a glimpse of her, then I could retire for the night. She didn't need to see me either. When I mind-linked Adam, I found

Samantha's POV "Are you sure that Alpha of yours isn't psycho?" That was Liv, my friend from the academy, Arcana Hills. I was on FaceTime with her and Julian, my other friend and the fake father of my son, Adrian. I had told them about how Alaric had attacked Kennedy. Liv was stunned, and Julian—he wasn't really taken by surprise, almost like he could reconcile with that truth instantly, like it was expected of Alaric. He had been silent most of the time and just let Liv do the talking. "Who knows," I muttered in response to Liv, but my eyes moved to Julian on the screen. I was quite curious about what was really on his mind, but he just scratched his head, his eyes making a few disapproving gestures; he didn't buy into Liv's guess. "You've not been saying anything, Julian." Liv finally noticed his silence as she pushed him slightly by the shoulder. He feigned being hurt, and it only made Liv hiss at him. "I don't know, maybe he isn't psycho. Maybe it's just a natural respons

Samantha's POVI was certain Alaric had received the summons by now, and I hoped he did the right thing, but I doubted his ego would let him do something as a real man.I was this close to feeling the warmth of a man since six years, and Alaric had to spoil that for me. It annoyed me so much that Kennedy had to go through what he did, and he couldn't fight back because Alaric was his Alpha. But did he deserve the respect if he couldn't even treat his men right?I didn't care what Kennedy wanted; I cared about what he needed, and that was the right compensation.I was at the lab at night after putting Adrian to sleep. I was working more obsessively on finding the cure, and since I had forced Adams to take a three-day break, I was left working alone. Amidst all the chaos lately, I was about to reach a turning point in my research, one that once it was achieved, my goal for coming to this pack would have been half-way done.I couldn't wait to see the result of this experiment. Once carri

Alaric's POVGoing through the claims Samantha made against me gave me a reality check on the depth of the rift I had created between us. She was determined to get justice for Kennedy. Her resolve was worth admiring, yet scary."Assault, stalking, harassment, abuse of power."These allegations stomped on my dignity as an Alpha. I had never been sued in my entire life. I never even fathomed that anyone would have such guts... Yet, she did.But that wasn't even the worst part of this summon I had received. The compensation was worse. She was suing me for one hundred thousand dollars in damages, a very audacious move. I was required to also give Kennedy an indefinite leave, allowing him to return whenever he wanted to his warrior duties, and an official letter of apology. But even that didn't move me to a point I had to react; it was the last requirement.Samantha wanted a restraining order: for Kennedy and then Adrian. I could understand why she might also want me to stay away from Adri

Samantha's POVAdams’ words hit me like a jolt. What did he mean Alaric had been masking his scent?I couldn't dwell on the question as my eyes locked onto Alaric. He strode into the lab, his form still dominating even though his aura was clearly suppressed. If he suppressed his aura, it meant he didn't want his presence known from a distance. Masking his scent should have been a logical step. If that was true, then how was I able to still scent him? We weren't even mates anymore, so how was that possible? Alaric had gotten closer, stopping only a few feet away from Adams and me.I tried to maintain his gaze, but my eyes dropped. I cursed myself inwardly, hating that I rarely had the strength to hold eye contact with him. My heart pounded, and my feet felt cold just standing a few feet away. I let out a sharp sigh, hoping to calm my nerves, but I was utterly defeated, completely out of control. I should feel only anger and gratitude towards him—one for Kennedy and the other for savi
