Semua Bab ALMOST REJECTED; FATE'S CHOICE : Bab 161 - Bab 170

Rhys. " Hurry up... Don't keep them waiting.." There was a teasing glint in her eyes as she urged.. I didn't even bid her a proper goodbye. My heart pulsed with burning excitement as I stepped into the unfamiliar space. The earlier fear, dread, and anxiety were forgotten. I wasn't even bothered by the fact that I was stepping into an unknown space. Thoughts of seeing Sabrina filled my mind, and I doubled my pace, dying to look at her familiar face, to smell her intoxicating scent. Yeah..I know. In the past, I used to pretend that her scent didn't affect me. Whenever we stood closer, I used to wear a straight face, secretly clenching my fingers, pretending to be unbothered by her presence, trying to keep that pathetic act! Goddess! That was exhausting. Finally, I could acknowledge my feelings for her without feeling like I was betraying the whole universe, without feeling like I needed to remind myself I hated her. ' Aren't you dreaming too soon, Rhys?' My train of

Rhys In just about a second, Jake transformed from a carefree and smiling giant to a ball of fury. His jaws were clenched, the look on his face menacing as he looked at me, and from the murderous glint in his eyes, I had no doubts he wanted to kill me. " Your father took something precious from me.."He said, the same murderous aura emanating from him. " Then he left..." He went on, his tone edged by bitterness. " It's been years, now .." He paused, a deep chuckle tearing past his lips. " His life is perfect.. He is happy, living..." He took another step towards me as he said with anger simmering at the surface of his eyes. From the moment he started talking up to that point, I was only able to grasp a few things. Jake knew my father, and they seemed to have unresolved grudges... either that, or he was just trying to put me through another test, maybe? " I thought that with years, I would be able to let go, to forget, but no...." Deep and broken, his voice cut t

Rhys.. Jake was huge and massive, clothed in pride that he didn't even bother hiding. Even when he attacked me, his moves were fast and ruthless, but still controlled, in a way that he wasn't fully expending all his potential. Meaning, he was clearly looking down on me. In his eyes, I was not his opponent, not someone worth fighting with, even. And yet, he had been throwing attacks in succession for over thirty minutes, and he hadn't managed to get past my defence. Worse still, I had even managed to corner him, and he staggered a few meters back. With his royal ego, of course, I had expected him not to take that too well. I had expected him to retaliate in several ways, shifting into his wolves, barring his fangs, claws, or something close to that. But for him to shift his attention to my mate? " I don't know a lot about her..." He said, a wicked smile playing on his lips. "But I know her name... Sabrina.." He added, the same wicked grin tagging at the corne

Rhys. " To avenge our Rina, nothing will stop us, not even death." Beast vowed, his voice cold, reverberating with tremors of anger. Rina was the nickname that my wolf had given to our mate. It was simply Sabrina, shortened to Rina.. Beast hardly used that name, though. I couldn't even remember the last time he called her Rina. It was probably four years ago, when I was leaving for the Alpha College. That had been a very tense moment for all of us and our wolves. The goodbyes had been hard, and to beast especially. ' Goodbye, Rina...' His voice had been laced with indescribable emotions as he whimpered out, and now, years later, his voice was layered by emotions too as he used that very name, but this time, it was mainly anger, as he promised to tear apart those who hurt our nate. " And now, let's start by getting rid of those who are blocking our way to the palace. " There was mischief in my wolf's voice as he stated, and just then, I felt it, the soothing sensatio

Rhys. " Go get the door." Jake, or should I say, my uncle, instructed. Now that I could see clearly, with the lights on, the villa wasn't as bare as it seemed, initially.. It was clean, with a set of couches in the living room.. There was a partition that looked like a kitchen, with a few cabinets, an oven, and another partition, which basically looked like a home gym.. Next to the home gym was another hallway, which snaked further into the villa and currently, that's where Jake was. He has been just a few seconds from disappearing when he paused, pain contouring his features as he called me. " There are several rooms on the west wing." " Feel free to pick up any... I will see you tomorrow. " He added, and before I could respond , he was gone. The knocking on the door persisted, so I hurried out, my heart beating with an anxiety I couldn't clearly place as I crossed the distance. 'Remember, this is our second test..Dont mess this up.' I was just a few second
