Semua Bab Rejected by my Alpha, Loved by my Beta: Bab 101 - Bab 110

Aurelia’s POV My eyes opened slowly as my body moved. I could feel a strong pair of arms holding me as my body ached in pain. My head throbbed and I could feel every part of my body on fire. I tried my best to remember what happened, but nothing was coming at the moment. My mind was a blank canvas nothing. I managed to look up and found Rune holding me as we walked through a hallway. That was when everything came back. I’d bought Solana and she had won. She didn’t just win. She’d beaten the crap out of me. Something I never expected. Well, everybody had warned me to back down from the fight but I didn’t listen. We arrived at the door of our hotel room and Rune swung it open, stepping inside slowly. I groaned as the door shut behind me, my head spinning before he set me on the bed. He was quiet which wasn’t a good thing. I knew he was waiting for the opportunity to scold me. Rune stood by the bed after letting me rest on it. His arms were folded and his eyes were on me as he

Aurelia’s POV Present day. I could see the pain in his eyes as he sat on the couch. This was such a sensitive topic. And I knew why he didn’t talk about it. I understood why he never spoke about it. That was because everything was too much to understand. He had spoken about his father and about the council. I was confused. How was the council involved in this? And why did his father do such a thing to him? All of these things were kept out when we first spoke on the balcony, but now he had spoken them freely. I was both surprised and confused. Rune ran his fingers through his hair with a sigh of frustration. The warmth of his lips still lingered on mine and the kiss we shared still felt exotic. I didn’t know how much of a good kisser he was. Every bone in my body ached for him to kiss me again, but there was a risk in that. A risk that I couldn’t take. I didn’t want to lose Rune especially when he found his mate. That would hurt more than anything. It would mirror the same pain

Kael’s POV Home. At last. It’d been three weeks and I was happy that I finally got to come back here. It was nice to see that everything was still in one piece just like I’d left it. There was only one issue I had. The mission to get Aurelia back was unsuccessful. But I’d learned a lot about her and most importantly, about Rune as well. I always knew that he was hiding something and my time there had confirmed it. He was stronger than he was letting on and so was the other Alpha girl, Solana. The Cadillac pulled over at the mansion and I stepped out of the car. I inhaled the warm scent of the pack’s air as the evening sun bathed my skin. This was amazing. A smell I didn’t want to let go of. Through the distance, I could hear rapid heartbeats and steps coming from the mansion. My lips stretched into a smile as I realized who it was. The doors swung open and Eliana leaped out of the mansion, soaring through the air as she came towards me. My eyes widened in shock at how fast she

Rune’s POV I stared at the ‘78 Porsche after taking off the sheet that masked it. It was shining and my eyes glinted in delight as I stared at it. “I know baby,” I said as I tapped the hood gently. “I missed you too.” A few minutes ago, I got a call from Derrick who told me that he got word on Raheem, a task I’d placed on him before I left. I was furious that he had kept quiet until he heard I had returned. But that didn’t matter. If he’d found some truth about Raheem, then I was going there immediately. The Porsche’s engine roared to life and I stepped on the gas speeding out of the garage. I drove through the dirt road before finding my way into the streets. My thoughts raced as I gripped the steering wheel. Aurelia caught me when I made the call with Derrick. It made me wonder how much she’d heard. From the way she stared at me, I could tell that it wasn’t much and I wanted it to stay that way. The less she knew the better. The last thing I wanted was for her to get eng

Aurelia’s POV. Secrets. Again? Really? I was tired of having to deal with all of that. I thought after the moment we shared at the hotel in Silicon Valley that things would get better between Rune and me but we seem to be drawing apart each day. I didn’t know what this was about but I knew that it wasn’t about Solana anymore. Talking about what happened eleven years ago must have brought back some trauma he’d buried. I mean, he’d helped kill an Alpha but he’d been manipulated not just by Solana but by the council as well. This was why he hated them so much. I sighed as I clutched the steering wheel, the morning sun washing the dashboard with its golden light. Beside me on the passenger seat was Asher. I was driving him to school thinking that it would clear my head from the thoughts of Rune, but it did little. There was something about him I couldn’t shake. And most importantly, there was this lingering connection that I felt between us when we first kissed at the hotel. It tri
