บททั้งหมดของ Rejected By My Mate, Claimed By The Alpha Twins: บทที่ 41 - บทที่ 50

Selena’s POVThe morning of the Alpha Council gathering did not feel like an event at first. It felt like something I had already thought about a lot before it actually happened. The room was very quiet. I stood in the middle of it for a long time. I just let the silence be there. It felt okay.My dress was hanging on the bed. I picked it up. It was simple. I had chosen it on purpose. I did not hesitate because I used to hesitate and that was someone. The dress felt heavier than I remembered. Maybe I just noticed the weight of people looking at me now. I could not just blend in like I used to.I said to myself "You are thinking too much." I was not doubting myself I was just reminding myself. I walked over to the mirror. My reflection did not look like a stranger. That was what bothered me a little.I fixed the collar on my dress slowly. I watched my hands. My hands were more honest than my memories. The old me would have looked in the mirror to make sure I looked okay. I would have t

Selena’s POVMy twin sister was standing near one of the raised council areas talking to a representative. She looked poised, calm, and for a moment she reminded me of how I remembered her.Then she saw me.The people around her kept chatting.She stopped paying attention.I knew when it happened because her eyes focused on mine and stayed there.The room started to fade into the background.Not because she was scared.Because she realized who I was.Almost realized.Confusion showed up first.A small wrinkle appeared between her eyebrows as she looked closely at my face.Then she was sure instantly but I wondered if I really saw it.Her eyes got a bit wider.Just a little.Not enough for others to notice.Enough, for me.Enough because I know her.Then doubt crept in again.I saw her mind refuse to accept what her instincts already knew.The sequence repeated itself fast it almost seemed to hurt.Beside me, Kai saw it away.His posture changed a little.Only a little.Just enough for

Selena’s POVAfter that, her breathing changed a little like she was trying to calm down."You do not belong here " she said, her voice finally softer but still sharp. "Just because you are alive does not mean what happened is forgotten."I looked at her looked at her not like she was someone I was fighting but like she was Serena."My being alive does not need anyone's permission " I said.That got to her I could see it on her face it was not that she agreed with me. It was like I had disrupted her thoughts.Serena's voice got lower. It was still dangerous."You think this changes things " she said slowly. ". It does not not for the Council, not for Roland not for anyone who remembers who you were."I took a breath, steady and calm."I do not need it to change anything for them " I said. "It already changed for me."That made her pause again this time because she did not know how to respond.It was not like I was defending myself or being emotional it was just final.Behind her someo

Selena’s POVThe realization that one person was getting more upset while the other wasn't.Serena's jaw got tight."That's all you have to say?"I tilted my head a bit."Did you expect more?"Some people nearby looked down fast hiding their reactions.Kai's mouth twitched.Kai looked like he was trying not to smile.Serena saw it.It made things worse.Because now she wasn't just losing her temper.She knew she was losing control."You think you're better than everyone?" she asked loudly."No."I answered away.It was an answer.Straightforward."No?"I said "No" again.That stopped her for a moment.Because she didn't know how to react.I watched her try to find a way to make me go back to being the me.The problem was, that person didn't exist anymore.Serena stepped closer to me.Close enough that I would have moved back years ago.Close enough that she thought I would.I didn't move.Not even an inch.She realized it away.I saw it in her eyes.A small crack, in her confidence.B

Selena’s POVKian sat beside me just like he always does. He does not need to be told what to do.Kai took the seat.For a seconds nobody said a word.The engine was not even started,. The quiet felt heavier than when we were moving.Then Kai laughed. It was not loud. It was not careless. It was a short sound that did not fit the atmosphere we had just left.Kian turned his head slightly toward the seat right away."What is funny?" he asked. His tone was calm. He was alert.Kai leaned back slightly. He still had one hand on the wheel. He was not driving yet."It is Serena " he said. There was an amusement in his voice but it did not feel right with the tension in the car. "She has not stopped watching the exit since we left."Kian breathed out through his nose. It was like he already understood before Kai finished talking.Kai kept talking"She cannot take her eyes off Selena " he said. He glanced at me through the rearview mirror briefly. "It is almost impressive how badly she is los
