All Chapters of The Rejected Alpha's Heart: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Maliyla's POV"Ahhhh!" I screamed, waking up in bed and realizing that I was dreaming. There was still a feeling of Erick's hands on my chest. My heart pounded in my chest as the remnants of the dream slowly faded away. I took a deep breath, trying to shake off the lingering unease, and reminded myself that it was just a dream. Yet, the sensation of Erick's touch lingered, leaving me confused."Bellissima, what is it?" Hector asked as he sat up and embraced me.Taking a deep breath, I said, "It's nothing. Just a bad dream."As Hector hugged me tighter, he said, "You're safe. I'm here." He pulled me back down to the bed, where I slipped into a deep sleep.It was the sound of curtains opening that woke me up. Sunlight flooded into the room, and I winced. I awoke to see Jeanie rushing around the room as she did the day I arrived at Cr

Hector's POVWe set up a time for Daunte's warriors to train with us at Crystal Blood Pack during our meeting. As soon as we finished eating, we returned home. In order to ensure Maliyla's well-being, I asked Jeanie to check on her. According to her, she was still asleep and had not gotten the laundry done as I had instructed. My desire to get rid of those clothes overshadowed my appreciation for her kindness."Please do as I ask, Jeanie," I told her through the mind-link."Certainly, Alpha," Jeanie replied, and I cut the mind link immediately.Jonathan and I returned to Crystal Blood Pack by mid-afternoon. I immediately headed upstairs. As I entered the bedroom, I noticed Maliyla wasn't there. On my way out of the room, I ran into Leonard."Alpha Hector, I heard that the Onyx Fang Pack would arrive in the next two weeks?" he said.

Maliyla's POVIt's said that makeup sex is the most satisfying, but fuck, this was heaven on earth. I could feel Hector's love for me just by looking into his eyes as he touched and kissed me gently. There was truth in everything he said about his feelings for me. The feelings I had for Hector were undeniable, but my worth was in question. It was then that I remembered reading about PTSD and wondering if everything I had experienced had contributed to it."Hector?" I whispered."Yes, baby," Hector replied as he lay on his side.As I placed my hand on his face, I smiled. Caressing his face, I said, "I love you so much. I just want..." suddenly, he kissed me, cutting off my speech."I understand that you're scared. Your questioning of my intentions is entirely understandable, especially after everything you have gone through. Support

Maliyla's POVWhile driving to the wedding hall, I wondered whether Kira had left the room with all the baby shower decorations closed. It was my intention to have the shower straight after the ceremony and both parties shortly after that. This was planned so that I could make a speech to the pack and surprise everyone with a baby shower at the same time.A complete gathering of the Crystal Blood Pack and Onyx Fang Pack took place. It was initially planned for a small venue with only seventy-five guests, but Hector and Daunte decided to go big, and since Daunte was going to walk me down the aisle, an offer like that just couldn't be refused. However, it was also important to me that Katia had her moment. Joslyn and Jayden had flown in with Evangeline."We're here," Jonathan said, breaking me out of my trance. My heart dropped as I looked out the window."Fuc

Maliyla's POVThe announcement that Katia was pregnant was the best news that could have come our way, given our current circumstances. It was something Jonathan had always wanted, so I was thrilled to see him finally getting what he always wanted: a mate and a house full of pups. It was a joy for Katia as well. She always dreamed of having a big family. They were entering the beginning of the most beautiful chapter in their lives.Jonathan had arranged for Katia to see Dr. Neal earlier in the week. Unfortunately, he could not attend with the Onyx Fang Pack on its way. As a result, I offered to go in his place. My alarm went off at five AM that morning. As I reached over, I noticed Hector's side of the bed was empty. As he had done when he proposed, he left a note and a white rose."Went for a run. I'll be back soon. Ti Amo""I love that man," I thought as I got out of bed, stretched, and headed to the bathroom. When I reached the sink, I turned on the co
