All Chapters of Rejected Luna : Alpha's Promise, King's Claim: Chapter 201 - Chapter 210

VENUSThe air changes around the room the moment Rowan steps beside me. It’s like the entire power shifts towards him and everyone sits stiffly in his presence. “I will be taking over the defense,” he says, calm as a blade resting at someone’s throat.Gonalz stiffens. “But my King, the notice should have been issued before the trial. You just can’t step into a trail and declare that you’re the defense lawyer. That’s the common law that every pack follows.” “Nile.”Nile steps forward instantly, placing a sealed document before the elders. “Royal decree,” he states. “The King holds the right to intervene in all judicial proceedings concerning inter-pack matters and wrongful conviction.”Silence follows.The elders scan the document. Elder Cersei nods. “You may proceed, King Rowan.” Gonalz’s jaw tightens, but he says nothing.Rowan turns towards me. Seeing him after so long makes my heart race wildly. His gaze drops to the chains biting into my wrists. Something dark flickers across h

VENUSThe courtroom is still vibrating from my dad’s threat when he finally turns toward me. The fury leaves his face as soon as he sees me and it’s replaced with hurt. “Venus.” His voice cracks.He closes the distance in seconds and pulls me into his arms so tightly that I stop breathing for a moment. His familiar scent wraps around me, feeling so warm, safe and achingly familiar. Like home. My throat tightens violently.“I’m sorry,” Dad says against my hair. “We should’ve come sooner. If I had known you were in danger in this damned place–”“No,” I interrupt quickly, shaking my head. “You couldn’t have known.”My voice trembles as I admit. “I didn’t tell you anything.”I kept carrying the truth alone until it buried me alive.Mom steps closer then, her hand cupping my face gently. Her eyes scan me with terrifying accuracy, taking in the exhaustion beneath my skin, the bruises left by chains, the dark circles under my eyes.Her expression tightens. “You went through so much and we

VENUSMallory’s eyes widen slowly. “What?” The room falls silent again.Bronze looks at Simon without hesitation now. “Capture her.”Mallory stumbles back. “Bronze–”“Place her in a secured cell,” he says coldly. “Ensure the unborn child is not harmed.”Simon nods immediately. Two guards move toward Mallory.“No!” she screams suddenly, panic finally exploding out of her. “You can’t do this to me!”But nobody moves to help her. Not even the pack people who used to worship. Now they stare at her with wary looks. She fights violently as the guards grab her arms. “No! Stop it! I’m still Luna. Bronze can’t remove me like that. I’m the mother of the heir of this pack!” She growls. Silver chains snap around her wrists to stop her from shifting. The sharp metallic sound echoes through the courtroom.Olivia begins sobbing as guards restrain her too.Mallory turns wildly toward Bronze again. “You believe her over me?!” she screams. “You are such a terrible mate! I wished I was never mated t

VENUSDarkness swims around me.For a while, I can’t tell where I am.My body feels strangely heavy, as if someone filled my veins with wet sand. There’s a dull ache in my head and an uncomfortable warmth curling in my stomach.Voices murmur nearby.“…she collapsed from exhaustion…”“…stress levels are too high…”My brows twitch. Slowly, I force my eyes open.Golden light filters through massive curtains. The room around me is familiar…luxurious, decorated in dark wood and silver accents. This is Rowan’s room. The memory of the courtroom crashes into me instantly. I remember how everything fell at the court and what I thought was initially a trial to declare me guilty turned out to be a truth bomb for Bronze. “You’re awake.”I turn my head weakly.Relief slams into me when I see Mom sitting beside the bed. Her eyes are slightly red as if she cried recently, but she quickly smooths my hair back lovingly.“Oh, thank Selene,” she whispers.“Mom…” My throat feels dry. “What happened?”

VENUSI find my parents sitting in the living room of the packhouse as I step outside Rowan’s room with him behind me. “Check my pulse. I think I’m going to pass out.” Dad tells the doctor who looks exhausted. “My daughter is pregnant. Pregnant! By a man who doesn't deserve her.” He yells in rage. Mom rolls her eyes at him. “Can you please stop saying that? Just because you don’t like him doesn't make him a bad person. Also, they are fated mates so the Goddess chose them to be together.” She turns towards us as we enter the living room and glances at me, then at Rowan. “Is…everything alright?” I raise my hand to show her the ring. Her eyes immediately widen."Oh my Goddess!" The smile that spreads across her face is so warm, it lights up my heart. "Oh, sweetheart."I smile back at her. "Rowan proposed."Mom gasps and tears fill her eyes. Before I can react, she pulls me into a tight hug. " Congratulations! I'm so happy for you."Emotion suddenly rushes into my throat and I hug he
