Rejected By My Mate, Claimed By Racer Alpha のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 141 - チャプター 150

KatyI knew something was going on the moment Lucian told me to dress up.No, it all started when he arrived at my garage at four in the evening and told me he was picking me up. I mean, he did know that I always left the garage at six or seven on a normal day. After freshening up, he just came into the bedroom while I was pulling my hair back and said "wear the green dress tonight" and then walked back out like he hadn't just issued a directive about my wardrobe.I stared at the doorway for a moment because that statement meant one thing; we were going out. "Are you going to tell me where we're going?" I called after him."Dinner." He called back."That's not what I asked."He didn't answer. Nevertheless, I wore the green dress.Minutes later, we left our apartment and boarded one of Lucian's flashy sports cars. The car ride was not quiet but basically, it was me being a curious cat. I tried three different angles of extracting information from lucian and got three different ve

KatyI curled myself into Lucian's arms as he wrapped them around me protectively.It had been two hours since we left the hotel after having dinner with Alpha Valen. Or should I say, my brother.My brother.I still couldn't wrap my head around it."You have been awfully quiet tonight, Katy." Lucian observed."Are you calling me a chatterbox?" I asked, nudging him softly."Don't put words in my mouth." He countered, his hand rubbing slow circles on my arm."I'm just trying to process everything." I said quietly. "I still can't believe it. I have a brother, Lucian. A real brother who has been looking for me for twenty five years." I shook my head. "Twenty five years. That's my entire life."Everything feels surreal. "I know." He said.I was quiet for a moment, staring at nothing in particular across the living room."You know what the strangest part is?" I said."Tell me.""I always felt like something was missing." I said. "Not in a sad way, not always. Just this background feeling o

After picking my spirits back again, I headed to the garage. If I was going to be away to visit Valen's pack while lucian went out of town, I needed to arrange things at the garage. Also, I needed to get some gossip from Nova about her progress with Elias. After the last conversation we had with him thanking me like I saved his galaxy, I am smelling something beautiful from them. Nova has been hesitant even with Elias showing obvious interest in her. Apparently, she is still scared that she might loose Elias eventually like she lost her mate, Davis. She still feels like Davis's death was her fault. What she does not want to acknowledge is the fact that Davis sacrificed his life to protect her and Aria. She was heavily pregnant back then when they were attacked by rogues, what could she have done? Davis chose to protect them and that's something a mate who loves you does. It's unfortunate that he lost his life in that attack. However, that should not make her walk around carrying

Later that night, laying on a bed that smelled of fresh linens and pine, I couldn't sleep. My mind was a whirlwind of new faces, new places and new feelings. I picked up the leather-bound journal, the one filled with my mother's handwriting, and started to read it all over again. The pages were a mix of everyday life and heartfelt reflections. It felt like peeking into a window of the woman who had given me life. She wrote of her love for my father, of her joy in raising her two children and the hopes for the future of their pack. As I read, I felt a strange sense of peace, a feeling of finally understanding the pieces of myself that had always felt missing. I was a daughter, a sister, a member of a proud, resilient pack. I was not just Lucian's mate, not just a tattoo artist with a mysterious past. I was Katy, and I was home. My phone buzzed on the nightstand, pulling me from my reverie. It was Lucian. Lucian: Are you okay? I smiled, a warmth spreading through my chest at

Katy povI headed to the bathroom to freshen up and maybe cook something for dinner before Lucian came home. Having something homemade would be good especially after being away for the past three days. I had barely finished washing my face when I heard the front door open. My heart leaped into my throat, and I rushed out of the bathroom, a wide grin spreading across my face."Lucian!" I called out, expecting to see him standing in the entryway.But it wasn't Lucian.It was a woman.A tall, stunningly beautiful woman with long, dark hair and piercing green eyes. She was dressed in a designer pantsuit, her posture radiating an aura of cool confidence and authority. And she was looking right at me, her expression a mixture of curiosity and something I couldn't quite place."Who are you?" she asked, her voice as cool and composed as her appearance. "And what are you doing in Lucian's apartment?"My blood ran cold. This was his apartment, yes, but it was my home, too. The possessive, terr
