All Chapters of Rejected But Wanted By The Alpha King: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

The sunlight had barely warmed the streets when Rashel stepped out of the house with Kael’s small hand wrapped in hers. She was beginning to spend more and more time with her son before leaving the house daily.Kael clutched a handful of Rashel’s hair, beaming up at her. His dark curls shone under the sun, innocent and oblivious.“Say, see you later, Mama.” Charlene cooed, and Kael laughed loudly. That childlike shriek would excite anyone who heard it.After a few moments, Rashel handed the child over to Charlene and watched as she turned and went back inside the house, fussing over the child and making wordless noises. Rashel felt the familiar sting of letting him go. As always, she lingered a moment, scanning the area for hidden threats. Too many packs, too many rivals, too many secrets.As Rashel turned to leave, her phone buzzed with an encrypted message from Jethro:Just a heads up. Veronica is back in town; she’s at the office.She stiffened, heart hammering. Veronica, ever beau

Everything felt wrong from the moment Rashel opened her eyes that morning. Unshakeable tension clung to the air, an electric warning that made the hair on her arms stand. She checked on Kael first, as always, watching him sleep peacefully in a tangled pile of blankets and stuffed wolves. The rhythmic sound of his breathing grounded her for a moment, but it couldn’t ease the sense of danger gnawing at her; she felt shivers run down her spine. Because of this, she decided she would work from home, refusing to leave Kael at home or take him out of the house. Downstairs, she poured coffee and reviewed the surveillance feeds from the night. Jethro’s guards reported nothing unusual, but she didn’t believe in coincidences. Instinct told her not to let her guard down and

The morning sun barely stretched through the stained-glass windows of the main house. It cast fractured light across the long marble hallway leading into Seth’s strategy room. Despite the calm glow outside, tension brewed like a storm inside the house. This had become the natural aura of Seth’s home. Raw, crackling tension.He sat behind his desk, surrounded by reports, half-read communiqués, and error logs. His jaw was clenched, his mind split between urgency and something far more intangible. It was an ache he couldn’t put into words, so he resorted to anger.Corwin entered without knocking.“Alpha, there’s an update from the southern watch. Another patrol error. They mistook two of our own for smugglers. Shot one.&rdquo

Jethro raced through the early morning fog like a wolf on the hunt. He could barely contain his anger as he waited for the first light of dawn to break. Even when Rashel pleaded that he let it go, he insisted on a personal confrontation with Seth.As he drove through the paths that led to the Southern territories, he noted that the place had become a shadow of what it used to be. It had once been a proud symbol of power. Now, it only existed in past glory, the glory Rashel had given him.He rode alone. No security details, not even one guard. This was certainly no courtesy visit. This was war. It was very personal, and he meant to clear the air with this visit.Rashel hadn’t said it aloud, but he saw the hurt in her eyes. The latest message had rattled

The days that followed Jethro’s recovery were tough. Rashel had begun to block him out, and even though he didn’t understand why, he tried as much as he could to respect her decision. In the days that followed, they prepared for an attack from Seth and his people because Jethro had supposedly gone to stir up trouble, even though he refused to admit it. They beefed up security around his estate and around Sceptre Towers.But it wasn’t all bad news; Dixon Holdings had called to apologize for pulling out of the partnership. They offered Sceptre Towers a check of one million dollars as compensation for damages done and reinitiated the partnership deal.***Rashel was supposed to travel to Chicago for a business meeting in three days, and she was panicking. Firstly, she was travelling with Kael but without Jethro, and as much as she tried to deny it, it scared her.She also worried about being intercepted by Seth or even Merikh’s forces
