All Chapters of The Rejected Beta and Her Cursed Lycan King: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

The rogue leader dragged his husky frame through the forest as blood dripped from his leg.He could not believe how badly the whole plan had gone. How was it that Zara was able to anticipate his every move, his every attack?He started to regret underestimating her. He thought that she was just some warrior who lacked strategies and complex thinking, and now he had paid the price for his ignorance.Right now, the only thing that mattered to him was getting out of here alive. Most of his men had been killed but as long as he survived, in no time, he would raise another army and have his revenge on the Moonstone pack.There was a rustling in the forest behind him that caused him to look over his shoulder, “Fuck!” he cursed as he saw Zara in pursuit.That beta hound did not know when to give up.Zara’s head was throbbing badly, she wanted nothing more than to lie down and take a nap, but she knew she couldn’t, not until she had caught the rogue leader.Letting someone like him escape wou

Zara stiffened and a cold chill ran down her spine, was it about to happen again?Just as she was about to go into full-blown panic, Elder Aliya walked in and then slammed the door shut.Zara let out a very visible sigh of relief.Joel noticed how flustered Zara began a few seconds ago but he said nothing about it. His mind was racing.What did Zara mean by her last statement? What did she mean by, “Something else was there?” he had no idea what she was hinting at but the way she said the words made him worried.Again, Zara was not the person to get worked up about minor things, if she was in full-blown panic, then this must be very serious.Elder Aliya’s eyes were scanning the room and as soon as she spotted Zara, she smirked and then began strolling towards her.Zara knew she was coming but paid no attention to her.“Zara, what are you talking about? There was no one else there but you and the dead Rogue Leader. You killed him, didn’t you?” Joel wanted to be extra sure that she was

The cold gust of wind was still traveling, each sheet of the blizzard moving together with intent, with sentience.It was not until it reached the narrow mouth of a cave that the cold gust began circling at the entrance like a whirlwind before dissipating and what was left traveled like a wisp of smoke into the cave.Voices could be heard coming from the cave, incantations and shouting. The white wisp continued to travel inwards, as it neared the hooded figures chanting around a stone altar, it rose in the air, dancing ceremoniously over the pale body that lay on the stone altar.Then with one swift dive downward, it fizzled in through the nose of the body, and then the incantation stopped abruptly.Everyone waited and watched with intensity.Slowly, color returned to the body on the stone altar. It was the body of a man, his face was wrinkled and he had so much facial hair covering the lower part of his face, that his mouth could barely be seen.His eyes flew open sharply, it was lik

Denice blinked!She must not have heard Zara correctly.Zara stared at her friend who stared at her with wide eyes, “Do you understand what I am saying, Denice? In my absence…”“What?” Denice exploded and took a step back.Zara remained calm, “In my absence,” she repeated, much slowly and with emphasis, “You and Joel would have to keep things under control. I will be back as soon as possible.”“What are you saying, Zara? You cannot leave… we need you!”“Right now, the pack is in good hands, if I don’t do this now, I don’t think I will get another chance to do it,” Zara explained.It was now or never, while the prophesy was still fresh in her head and while the pack was still riding on the high of their last victory, this was the time to take action.Dencie really could not believe it, her friend had gone mad indeed.“Zara, you have to let this go. There is already a lot going on here for you to add this to the mix.”“I have to find out what happened to my former mates, D. I have to kn

Zara and Brother Gi were not the only people to leave the Moonstone pack that night.Joel too was riding his horse hard and fast heading to the same neighboring village as Zara.Earlier that evening, Denice had come to tell him that Zara was leaving and would be entrusting the safety of the pack into their hands.At first, Joel was livid, he could not believe what he was hearing and screamed at Denice, asking her why she allowed Zara to do something so foolish.They might have won the war against the Flint Posse, and they might have earned the trust of their people back but they were still far from strong, this was the wrong time for Zara to be running off, playing detective.He said that he would ride after her and drag her back if the need arose and initially, that was what he intended to do but as he left the pack, he started having second thoughts.What was he doing being so worried about Zara? Had she somehow bewitched him with her curse?Zara just gave him an opportunity, he kne
