Semua Bab Rejected By The Beta, Claimed By His Alpha Uncle : Bab 31 - Bab 40

Jenna didn’t escape. She had no strength for it, no place to go. The garden at the East Wing of the villa was vast, and the scents accompanied her. She wandered into the garden and sat on one of the swings, pulled her knees to her chest, and stared blankly at the flowers. The sun had risen and begun to set again. She hadn’t eaten. Not that she could. Not when everything inside her felt like it was turning against her body, wolf, and mind. She didn’t cry. She didn’t even blink much. Her wolf, Lexa, remained unnaturally silent. She was tired of fighting. A faint sound broke the stillness. She didn’t look up until the person stood in front of her. Ryker. Of course, it was him. He stood just there, watching her. Jenna didn’t move. “I thought you left,” he said after a pause. His voice was quieter than usual, lacking its usual edge. “You had everyone searching the entire Villa.” “I didn’t feel like being found,” she replied, her voice flat. Ryker stepped closer. “You

The villa’s kitchen was quieter than usual. Jenna stood at the stove, sleeves rolled, her hair tied loosely back, stirring a simmering pot of broth.It was soothing, in a way. Like pretending the world outside didn’t exist.There were no family arguments, no venomous glances from Nina. No Ryker stoic, unreadable, and cold expressions.Her fingers trembled slightly as she ladled the soup into a small bowl. She hadn’t eaten all day. Her body ached from fatigue, and her stomach twisted with the usual unease. Still, this was something she could control. It was the first time in days Jenna felt remotely like herself. Jenna stirred the spoon slowly, watching the surface ripple. Her belly ached slightly, a dull pain that had become too familiar these days. She didn’t know if it was the pregnancy, the stress, or something else entirely. Lexa remained quiet, as if conserving strength.The kitchen was otherwise empty except for two servants prepping spices at the far end of the room. Even the

Jenna’s voice trembled, her eyes brimming with tears as she looked up at Alpha Ryker. “I didn’t do it, I swear, I didn’t do it, Alpha Ryker. You have to believe me.” Her voice cracked under the weight of desperation. “You took my innocence first and I'm bonded to you by contract. I would never cheat on you.”Disbelief shadowed Ryker’s expression. His gaze drifted down to her swollen belly, his lips curling in disgust. “Those babies in you…” He said slowly, voice like ice. “They do not belong to me, do they? They belong to him. Damien.”It sounded like a question, but Jenna knew better. He had already made up his mind and this was his dark side she had never experienced.“They’re yours, Ryker—ours. I swear it on our mate bond,” she whispered, reaching out for his hand instinctively. But she recoiled the moment he flinched away.“Do not dare stain me with those filthy hands,” he snapped. Disgust twisted his features. “You’re a whore and a liar. I found you in bed with him, his hand unde

Jenna’s eyelids fluttered weakly, struggling to adjust to the brightness that bathed the room.“Ryker…” she muttered, the name falling from her lips like a final plea. She could’ve sworn she felt his presence, strong, lingering, close.“He just left,” came a familiar voice. Jenna’s eyes opened fully to see the healer from the night before. “He came to make sure the job was done.”It didn’t matter if Ryker had been there or not. The only thing that truly mattered was that her children were still alive.“Thank you,” she whispered with a small, hopeful smile. Tears of gratitude welled in her eyes. “Thank you for saving my children… and me.”But the healer didn't return her smile. Instead, she sighed heavily, her attention turning to the plants she was tending. Her face avoided Jenna’s gaze.“You shouldn’t thank me,” she said softly.“I know how dangerous this was for you,” Jenna replied gently. “I just want you to know how much I appreciate it.”That was when it hit her, sharp, searing p

The grand hall fell into silence as the guard’s voice echoed off the high stone walls.“The Lycan King… he’s here.”The heavy double doors of the ceremonial hall swung open with a slow, resounding creak.Every head turned toward the entrance. Warriors instinctively straightened, nobles dipped their heads, and whispers turned to breathless hush. A power, ancient and untamed, swept into the room like a cold wind before a storm.Alpha King Kaelion Vexmoor had arrived.Alpha Ryker straightened, his spine snapping rigid. He adjusted the collar of his ceremonial cloak and threw a fleeting glance at Nina beside him. She gave him a dazzling smile, eyes shimmering with barely-contained triumph.This was her moment. His moment. Their moment.Heavy footsteps rang out in perfect rhythm from the entrance, boots striking the polished floor. Two elite guards entered first, towering lycans clad in dark armor with no visible insignias. They didn’t need them. Everyone knew who they belonged to.Then ca
