All Chapters of I Reject the Alpha King: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

I thought my mate, Alpha Baton, had renounced his savage ways for me. But right before our marking ceremony, he destroyed my father just to make his first love happy."He was only exiled, Tricia, not sentenced to death! Now drop it!"I never thought Baton would speak to me like that.I lunged forward, grabbing the collar of his shirt."That witness lied!" I clenched my fists. "Magnus told me he saw my father acting in self-de—"Baton stood on the steps above me, his deep blue eyes—once filled with a warmth meant only for me—were now as cold as arctic ice."It doesn't matter," Baton cut me off. "The council has made its decision. Your father will be exiled."I stared at him, the man who had sworn to protect me and my family."Why?" My voice trembled. "You know he's innocent. You're the Alpha King. You have the power to stop this!"Baton was silent for a moment before walking slowly toward me."Because Seraphina needs justice." His words were daggers to my heart. "She lost her only broth

A video of me shaming my father spread to every pack in North America within three hours.My phone blew up with notifications."Princess of the Laurel Pack Admits Father is a Murderer.""Future Luna Disowns Family in Public Ceremony.""Draven Vance Betrayed by His Own Daughter."My mother sat in the living room, her phone slipping from her trembling hands."Tricia..." her voice was broken. "Why did you...""I had to," I knelt before her, taking her cold hands in mine. "He would have killed you."She shook her head, the light in her eyes dimming."Our family..." she murmured. "Three hundred years of honor..."Just then, the phone rang.It was a call from the detention center."Miss Vance, your father..." the voice on the other end was frantic. "He stabbed himself with a silver dagger. He's losing a lot of blood."My blood froze."What?!""He's being rushed to the medical center now. You need to come quickly!"I pulled my mother up and we ran for the door.The medical center was in the h

Baton's POVThe moment Tricia turned her back on me, an invisible blade twisted in my chest.Our mate bond screamed in protest. In rage. In agony.I pressed a hand to my heart, forcing myself to stay calm."Baton?" Seraphina came over, her eyes filled with concern. "Are you alright?""I'm fine." I pushed her hand away. "Go home."But the pain didn't stop.I drove back to our penthouse downtown. This was my home with Tricia, and every corner of it held a piece of her.On the living room wall hung the giant mural we designed together.It was a full moon night, with two wolves nestled together on a mountain peak. The male wolf was black, the female was silver. Their tails were intertwined, forming an eternal knot.It was the totem of our mate bond.Tricia spent three months painting it. She said it meant we would never be parted.I reached out, my fingers tracing the silver wolf in the painting."Tricia..."The pain hit again, sharper this time. I could barely breathe.Why? I was just pro

Tricia's POVThree days ago, on my last night before leaving.I returned alone to the apartment that was once my home.The door code hadn't been changed. It was still the date we first held hands.I slipped inside. The silence was heavy. I found Baton in his study, slumped over his desk.Even in his sleep, his brow was furrowed with worry.I didn't wake him.I went silently to his private server.As his Mate, I knew all the passwords.My fingers flew across the keyboard, downloading years of secrets onto a ghost drive.Financial records, transaction histories, blackmail files...All the proof of the Blackwood Pack's illegal activities.Including the wire transfer he used to threaten Magnus.It was all here.Once the file transfer was complete, I walked over to the sleeping Baton.Moonlight streamed through the window, illuminating his face.He was once my entire world.I gently unbuttoned his shirt, revealing the mate mark on his chest.The complex, magical tattoo that symbolized our e

The speedboat traveled for an hour through the darkness, finally docking at a hidden private marina.Several cars were already waiting on the pier."Your mother is in a safe place," Caleb said, helping me out of the boat. "We'll go to her now."The convoy drove through winding mountain roads, eventually arriving at a large estate.At the main gate, two armed werewolf guards saluted Caleb."Welcome to the River Shore Pack," Caleb said to me.The estate was even more luxurious than I had imagined. Smart security systems, surveillance cameras, and even anti-drone equipment."Mom!"I saw my mother sitting in the living room and rushed over to embrace her.She looked frail, but her spirits seemed a little better than before."Tricia..." she held me tight. "I thought I'd never see you again.""I'm okay, Mom. We're both okay.""This is an outrage!"An angry voice came from the top of the stairs.An elder wolf, around sixty years old, descended. He was tall with a silver-white beard, and his e
