All Chapters of Rejected But Wanted By The Alpha King: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Seth’s life was in danger.It was all Rashel could think about as the conference commenced, up until it was over.The room was full of people and voices, but Rashel barely heard or said a word except for a few pleasantries here and there.And if he doesn’t, we’ll just get rid of him. Viola, his lovely wife, had said.But that had been two hours ago. Two long hours of internal conflict.She replayed the words in her mind over and over, trying to make sense of them. Firstly, she didn’t understand why it bothered her so much, and secondly, why did Merikh have to kill Seth? Couldn’t he just wait till the time

Across the city, in the southern borders, chaos unfolded just like every other day. It had become a norm for the southern dwellers to experience a total state of confusion and frequent unlawfulness.“Seth? Baby? Please calm down. Don’t let the stress cloud your judgement too. Come on.” Viola purred as she calmly followed a raging Seth to his office.“My mind is not clouded!” He snapped and slammed the door behind them. “I’ve always been surrounded by traitors!”Viola’s heart skipped a beat for a moment at the mention of betrayal.“Baby? Don’t say that.” She said, not losing her composure.“But it’s true. First, it’s Merikh. My own brother, plotting to take my position. Can’t he wait just two damn years! Then it was Rashel. She cheated on me after I gave her everything. I put Fortis into her hands and gave her everything she needed to develop it. Now she

Viola woke with what she described as the perfect idea. The following morning after Rashel’s visit, it struck her that she could use it to her advantage. She texted Merikh with the burner phone she secretly owned and asked him to meet her at their secret location. It was called ‘no man’s land.’ It was the area that belonged to no one in particular. It wasn’t owned by any packs or claimed by any Alphas, not even outlaws.She waited exactly two hours after Seth left before she drove out of the southern borders and headed for no man’s land. When she arrived, Merikh’s car was already parked by the cottage where they always met for their trysts and plans.Merikh was on his phone when she arrived. His face instantly lighted up when he saw her, and he stood up to hug her.

As Seth watched Jethro and Rashel retreat, he let out a low growl.Rashel’s ears perked up, waiting to detect any sign or sound of an attack as they moved. She was ready, just waiting, but Seth didn’t follow them.She felt it in her spine that this wasn’t an act of mercy. Seth wasn’t a man to let invaders go freely. Especially when it was another Alpha who had come into his territory to spill blood.This man had certainly let them go because of other reasons. Reasons best known to him. And for good reason, she didn’t want to find out. When they came into view of the others and it became obvious that they were retreating, Jethro’s pack abandoned the fight and followed their Alpha.As they retreated, Rashel noticed that Seth’s men didn’t follow them. Seth only stood at the corner of the house and watched them, still in his wolf form just like everyone else.***When they looked back, Seth’s

The council chamber was as tense as it could get, and one could almost feel the electric jolts moving through everyone. Everyone present knew how serious the case was. Veronica belonged to the upper-class society, and her association with Jethro made her case a high priority; she was almost his Luna. It also attracted quite a crowd to the hearing. The marble floors gleamed under high chandeliers, their polished surfaces reflecting the white walls and bright lights in this very excited atmosphere.Rashel watched from her place in the front row, arms folded tightly across her chest, as Veronica was led in by two guards in silver uniforms. Her wrists were bound, her once-lustrous hair disheveled, but her eyes still burned with the same contempt and defiance Rashel knew her for. Only three days in custody, and Veronica was beginning to look unrecognizable.Jethro sat beside Rashel, and even though she never told him, his presence strengthened her and made her feel indispensable.
