All Chapters of Bound To The Alpha I Rejected : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

My hands shook visibly as my pen hovered over the paper in front of me."Sign it already. This is the only chance we have," my father said impatiently, and I swallowed.So, this was how it was all going to end? I was going to end up in the bed of a stranger just to save my pack. I guess I was never going to know how it felt to have a mate, since the Moon Goddess had already given me my punishment by not granting me any other mate since the night I rejected Kaelan.I bit my lip at the thought of that name. Even though it had been ten years, I still couldn't forgive myself.Time has passed so quickly, yet every minutes of those years felt like a shackle. Ever since that night, I had lived in regret, and the never-ending questions of "what-ifs" filled my head.What if I hadn't said the word that night?"I, Seraphina Blackwood, hereby reject Kaelan Thorne as my mate."I could still vividly recall the broken look in his eyes after I spewed those words without batting an eyelid on my eighte

My breaths hitched, and for a second I forgot how to breathe. It was only when he moved away from me that I regained my senses. "It wasn't fun for me—" I tried to say, but was interrupted by a snap of his fingers. And he scoffed, an irritated look plastering his face. "Remember when I said you're my property?" He asked, taking those menacing strides towards me yet again. "It means you follow each and every of my rules. Now, rule number one," he paused, raising up one of his fingers. My face was focused on his shoes, and I couldn't even dare look at him. My thoughts were a tangled mess. This still felt like a nightmare, one I couldn't wake up from. When would it end? "You look at me, while I'm talking to you, little wife," He said in a calm yet lethal voice. I forced myself to look straight in his eyes, and I almost averted my look. His deep blue eyes were so cold that I felt like my whole body was freezing. His eyes literally felt dead, and I drew my lips in. Here. Here was the m

The rest of the dinner passed in complete silence, my eyes buried in my plate and his gaze burning into me. He was watching me like a hawk, and I could feel the heat of his hatred searing my skin. When I couldn't take it anymore, I finally looked up. Sure enough, his eyes were still locked on me, his own food untouched. His stare was enough to drown me, but I refused to stay silent. "Okay, Kaelan," I said with a new resolve. I saw his demeanor shift instantly. "It's Kael," he corrected, his voice flat. I nodded. If he didn't want to be called by his full name, fine. I just needed to say my piece. "Look, Kael, I'm tired of this cat and mouse game." "Already?" He tilted his head, a mockery of curiosity. "It's been less than twenty-four hours, and you're tired? What a shame." "I don't want to play games with you," I said, trying to hold onto my courage. I waited for him to interrupt, but he remained silent. "I know I hurt you. It wasn't entirely my fault, and I'm sorry—"

KAELAN'S POV "I can't help but wonder what sick plan you have in your head, Kael." I rolled my eyes, without looking up from the paperwork I was signing. "I thought I told those dumb skulls not to let anyone in," I hissed. "Well, that order dosen't apply to the Alpha's best friend," Rio chuckled, and I finally tore my gaze from the papers. "How about the seal I told you to get from the Western gates? Do you have it with you?" I asked, but Rio just rubbed his palm over his face, frustrated. "Are you serious? Kael, it's your wedding day! You're getting married in the next few hours, and here you are. Who does that?" He asked in frustration. "Just because I'm getting married dosen't mean i should forfeit my work. The marriage is not a big deal," I shrugged, and Rio scoffed. "Now, I think you really have a problem," he said, and I let out a low chuckle. Rio's the only one who's allows to speak to me im such casual manner, without risking his head cut off. "Few weeks a

My eyes widened in alarm. I snatched the towel, clutching it tightly against my chest before it could fall."Leave, Kaelan," I muttered, but my voice was a shaky whisper."You want me to leave?" he asked, a knowing smirk twisting his lips. "Then why haven't you pushed me away yet?"My gaze dropped to his hand, still searing a brand through the towel and into my waist."Leave!" I said, more firmly this time, and finally shoved against the solid wall of his chest.He released me with a dark chuckle and walked to the bed, picking up the lingerie. He held the delicate red lace in his hands, the material looking impossibly small and intimate against his palm. He turned back to me."This might just be useful," he said with a wink before walking out and closing the door behind him.I slumped against the wall, finally releasing the breath I'd been holding."What the hell was that?" I pressed a hand to my racing heart. What if I hadn't held onto the towel? What if it had fallen? Would we have
