All Chapters of Rejected by the Ruthless Lycan king : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Ginnie**I scrubbed my hands longer than necessary at the basin outside the staff quarters, as if I could wash away the humiliation of last night off my skin.Especially Varkos.The way he’d produced the bracelet at the perfect moment, like some knight in shining armor I never asked him to be. Before deliberately tearing down the small, foolish hope that tried to bloom in my chest.Don’t be stupid, Ginnie.One good deed could never erase what he’d done to me that night, nor did it suddenly make him have a heart.Bastard!If anything, it only proved how dangerous he was—how easily he could lift someone just to crush them harder moments later. I couldn’t let myself believe there was even a shred of humanity buried inside Alpha Varkos.Stop thinking about him, Ginnie.He’s not worth it!He’s not worth it!I pushed the thoughts away as the staff quarters door creaked softly, I slipped inside, careful not to draw attention. The room was dim, the only small window letting in a weak streak o

Varkos**“You’ve delayed this long enough.” My mother’s voice cut through the dining hall like a blade, sharp and unforgiving.Across the table, Lady Ravena Draven—my mother, sat at the head of the table, her silver hair pinned flawlessly, those dark eyes burning with expectation and threat in equal measure. I didn’t bother looking up from my plate to know what she was talking about, “Lower your tone,” I shot back coldly. “You’re addressing your son, not the council.”For a moment silence followed —brief, but the scrape of cutlery quickly shattered it as Kenna shifted beside her. “You are the Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack,” she continued, nothing calm about the tone of her voice, “And you are already engaged to Kenna…so I don’t see a reason why you don’t want to mark her by now.”Kenna sat right next to her, her expression carefully composed, though I could smell her frustration beneath the calm composure she was trying to put up.I finally lifted my gaze. “I don’t recall asking for

Ginnie**Varkos stood up from where he had been seated beside Lily, his eyes blazing the instant he saw me standing in the doorway of his study. Surprise flickered for a second before it quickly turned into something dark.“What the fuck are you doing here?” he demanded, his voice thundered across the room, “I don’t remember calling for you or inviting you in here.”I tried to move but my feet wouldn’t let me, rooted to the floor, my heart hammering so violently I was sure he could hear it. “I..I was…” My voice betrayed me in the worst way as I tried to speak.Lily stirred awake, her eyes widening in weak relief the moment she saw me standing beside the door. “Ma—”Before the words would escape Lily’s mouth, I moved. I crossed the room in a heartbeat, grabbing Lily and hauling her off the chair, yanking her into my arms with a force that stunned Varkos himself.She let out a small cry as I turned away, pressing her tightly against my chest as my body instantly formed a barrier betwe

Ginnie**I gasped, instinct taking over my body as I dropped the glass of water, my legs scrambled to run—but the arm around me tightened instantly, yanking me back hard against a hardcore chest.“Try to move again,” the voice breathed warm against my ear, “And I’ll slice your throat open before you take another breath.” Pain shot across me as the blade sliced a bit through my neck, just enough to promise it could do much worse. “Good girl,” he murmured, “Now I want to listen very carefully.”My pulse pounded so loud I was certain he could feel it beneath the knife, “Who…” my voice cracked, “who are you?”A low chuckle brushed my ear. “Does it matter?”“Yes,” I replied, fear clawing its way into every part of my body, “What do you want from me?”The knife pressed harder.“I said—listen.”“You’ve been very careful,” he continued casually, as if he wasn’t holding a knife to decide my fate. “I mean…for a human, you’ve done a good job in keeping your secret hidden for years now.”I swall

Ginnie**My breath shuddered as I obeyed Varkos, parting slowly under him.“You claim to hate me so much,” he whispered, his lips trailing down my neck so warm making me shiver with every kiss lower, lower, until he hovered above my chest. “But you seem to be enjoying every bit of this.”I could only watch him with my wide-eyed eyes as his hand came up to cup my breast. His rough palms pressed through the thin fabric of my dress. With one swift tug, he freed me, and the cool air bit my bare skin the moment his eyes locked with mine.He leaned in with his mouth parted. The hot pull of his lips around my nipple tore a shameful moan from me. My head fell back, arching into him as pleasure shot through me.His tongue flicked and sucked with a motion that made my thighs tremble, while his other hand rolled and teased my other nipple until I’d lost my mind.“V…Varkos—“ the name broke from me on a gasp.But he paid me no attention, his mouth relentless, sucking harder, then teasing, only to
