All Chapters of Rejected And Reborn: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

CHAPTER ONE: The Hope That Broke Me Nora’s POV I stared at the cracked mirror, brushing down the pale blue dress I borrowed from the kitchen maid. It was nothing fancy. My hair was pinned back. No makeup. My shoes didn’t even match. But I still smiled. Because I wasn’t just any girl tonight. I was his. Alpha Kade. My mate. We had kept it a secret. He said it wasn’t the right time to tell anyone. He said people wouldn’t understand. That an omega couldn’t be Luna—not yet. But soon. Very soon. He’d hold me in his arms and whisper, “Soon, Nora. Just wait for me.” So I waited. And tonight, in front of the whole pack, he would finally say my name. I clutched the pendant he gave me,a small silver moon, the only thing I had that was truly mine. My hands shook, but my heart was full. He wouldn’t betray me. He couldn’t. Not after everything we shared. Not after all the nights I lay in his arms, thinking maybe… maybe I was finally enough. The hall sparkled with li

Chapter 3: Waking to a Stranger’s World Nora’s POV My eyes fluttered open slowly. A sharp ache spread through my body, but something soft cradled me. Where am I? I blinked, trying to focus. White walls. A small room with a window letting in pale light. I tried to sit up. Pain flared in my ankle. I bit my lip and leaned back. Suddenly, a soft knock came at the door. The door opened quietly, and a woman walked in. She smiled gently. “Ah, you’re awake. Good.” I looked at her, confusion clouding my mind. “Where… where am I?” I whispered, my voice weak. The woman stepped closer. “You’re safe here,” she said. “I’m the healer.” I frowned. “Who… who brought me here?” She paused, then answered, “The Alpha.” “Alpha?” I repeated slowly. She nodded. “Yes. His name is Axel. He found you in the forest.” My heart jumped. Axel? The man I had never met… the stranger who saved me. I tried to remember what happened after I ran away. The forest. The

Chapter Five: When He Saw Me Nora’s POV I thought I could leave. I thought if I just ran fast enough, far enough, maybe no one would notice I was gone. But I was wrong. Because before I could reach the edge of the woods, a voice cut through the silence like a blade. “Where do you think you’re going?” My heart stopped. My whole body froze in place as I slowly turned around. Axel stood there, tall and angry, his eyes glowing faintly in the moonlight. The way he looked at me made my chest tighten. He wasn’t just angry. He was furious. “Did you think you could lie to me and just walk out like nothing happened?” he growled, stepping closer. “You think you can leave when your secrets have been exposed?” I took a step back, my voice barely above a whisper. “I didn’t mean to—” “Don’t lie to me again, Nora.” His voice was sharp. “The guards told me. You had dealings with the elders. You’re not just some fragile stray.” “That’s not true,” I whispered, tears alread

Chapter Seven: Whispers in the ShadowsNora’s POVI stayed pressed against the shadows, barely daring to breathe. Every word from the room beyond the door clawed at my nerves, sharper than any blade.Axel’s voice was steady, low, and unwavering, but there was an edge to it, quiet fury, determination, a promise I could feel even from here.“…Axel, the pack expects you to choose a Luna. Tradition dictates it,” one elder’s voice cut in, cold and precise. “Without a Luna, your position is… vulnerable. Instability could follow.”“I work to be the Alpha,” Axel replied, calm but firm, almost defiant. “I won’t let anyone else take this role. And being Alpha isn’t about having someone by my side . I will lead the pack, with or without one.”There was a pause, thick and tense, like the room itself was holding its breath. Then another elder’s voice, sharper this time, like steel on stone: “Tradition is not optional. The pack’s faith wavers when rules are ignored. Someone must stand beside you, o

Chapter Nine : The Shattered MomentNora’s POVThe silk of the Luna stole shimmered faintly under the golden light of the sitting room. I stood before him, my heart racing as though it would tear through my chest. Axel adjusted the fabric gently across my shoulders, his touch careful, almost reverent.“You look…” His voice trailed off as his eyes lingered on me, deep and warm. “Like the Luna you were meant to be.”My lips trembled, but I smiled anyway. “And you… look every bit the Alpha.”He wore his Alpha attire tonight, a robe woven with symbols of strength and leadership. My fingers, unsure at first, lifted to straighten the clasp near his chest. His hand brushed mine, and I felt the strength of him beneath the fabric, the steady beat of his heart.“By next week,” he said, his voice calm yet firm, “I will hold a ceremony. I will announce you as my Luna before everyone.”The words sank into me like sunlight breaking through storm clouds. For so long, I had been unwanted, unworthy, a
