Lahat ng Kabanata ng REJECTED, Then Becoming King's Adorable Omega: Kabanata 121 - Kabanata 130

KIERANSelene left the office after a while. She had continued speaking about Celeste, talking down on her and even wanted me to insult her in the same manner. But I had said nothing that further fueled her rage. She told me she was going to rest in the room, although I didn't care where she might have gone either. And I was glad that she left. At least, I'd be able to think without having someone nag at me or interrupt me, telling me how awful of an Alpha I was becoming.My thoughts wandered to what Celeste had said before leaving. She was worried about the benefits others could get when they got their hands on Celeste.I had a plan. I had thought of that a long time ago. I had considered the possibility of it failing, and I even went ahead to make plans B, C, and D. Whichever one worked in the end, it was still a win for me.I leaned over the open window, looking outside. I was on the first floor of the building. So, it was easier to see things. Additionally, I refer to it as the up

CELESTEWe returned to the courtroom, where the elders gathered once again. This time, there was little to no tension. The break that was taken was indeed a needed one. And since the discussion started, Alpha Kieran and Damon hadn't antagonised each other. Instead, Alpha Kieran seemed to get along and agree with almost everything that was said.Even Selene. Weirdly, she was conversing with me. She was still doing so, despite the fact that I was trying to ignore every discussion with her. Earlier, we had almost pulled each other's hair out; now she was acting like that never happened, as if we were best of friends and would remain that way forever.“You know it's rude to ignore someone when you're being spoken to, right?” Selene said.I glanced away from the elders and alphas who were in a brief discussion, to stare at Selene sitting behind me. She flashed me a toothiest smile. Her lips stretched out weirdly, and the corner of her mouth twitched continuously, as if she wanted to end th

CELESTETWO DAYS LATER“What do you think about this dress for dinner?” Hanna pulled up a peach, knee-length dress with capped sleeves and a draped bodice. I raised a brow as I looked at it, shrugging.“I don't mind anything,” I mumbled.“Perfect. I think this will look good on you. Anything will look good on you anyway.” She pointed out.I bobbed my head, watching as she walked to the room’s corner. My thoughts wandered. We left the neutral ground two days ago, with everyone returning to their pack house, including Lauren. Even though I had spoken to Damon about Lauren and how she wasn't safe in Alpha Kieran's pack house, he had only said he'd look into it.Besides, I was the only one permitted to leave. Lauren wasn't. Elder Morgana had declined when I tried to ask her, and she had glared, telling me Lauren had an essential role in the pack house and couldn't leave. Although I couldn't think of any role she might have that would hinder her from leaving. She only did the cleaning, lik

CELESTEI thought the dinner would continue silently. Maybe I shouldn't have wished for total silence, and despite what Damon had told Sabrina, she continued to speak. She only stopped when Damon stared at her, but when he did, she would make subtle, snide remarks towards me and try to laugh it off.I was exhausted by her antics. I wished I could leave the room, to somewhere else, but I couldn't. Each time I made up my mind and tried to stand from the chair, Damon would place a hand on my lap. He was the closest to me so that he could reach for me without any problem, and he'd shoot me a look.The dinner that we often had in a comfortable silence was ruined. I grimaced, unable to hide my irritation, before shooting a glare in Sabrina's direction.Sabrina shrugged. I believed she sensed I was staring at her. Hence, she gave that shrug. She probably didn't care. “Where's Beta Seth? I assumed he'd be here. It's quite late, and I don't think anyone is out there working in the pack house a

DAMONThe smile on her face, the tears of happiness…it was for that very reason I had done all I could to bring Lauren to the pack house. Just to see her happy, and I was glad that wish was fulfilled.I smiled as I picked up the sound of their voices from where I stood near the window. It wasn't that loud, and it wasn't low either. The truth was I had eavesdropped even though I knew it should be the last thing I should do. It was an invasion of privacy. I couldn't even tell why I had done it in the first place.I sighed, stilling as I heard the door open. Without turning to see who it was, I knew.“Seth,” I murmured. I thought he left for his room. I had left him in the dining room with everyone else. I needed to read through some files that were brought to me. It was filed because I wasn't in the pack house for over a month, and there were a lot of readings for me to attend to, as well as business meetings.“I try to stay for at least a brief minute in there. I couldn't endure it. Ho
