All Chapters of Never Reject A Secret Luna Heiress: Chapter 281 - Chapter 286

Percy’s POVI looked at him, and he lowered his head at once. I did not raise my voice, but I let my Alpha pressure rise. “You are my Beta,” I said. “Do not forget your place.”His jaw tightened, but he stayed quiet. “I know my place, Alpha. But I also know you. You are afraid she only wants to return because she feels guilty.”I looked away. He had said the truth, and that made me angry. “Rue is not ready,” I said. “She was silent when I asked if she trusted me. I will not bring her back while she is still uncertain.”“She may be ready now,” he said.“Or she may be returning because she is worried I will lose control,” I answered. “I will not use my sickness to keep her beside me.” My Beta took one step forward. “Then at least meet her. Tell her that yourself.”“No,” I said. The answer was short, and it ended the matter. My wolf tried to take control, angry and restless, but I forced it back. I was an Alpha. I would not let my need for Rue control my decision.“Where are we headed?”

Rue’s POVI was still recovering in the hospital after the fire. My throat felt dry, and my body was weak from the smoke I had inhaled. Cole sat beside my bed.When I opened my eyes, he looked tired. “You’re awake,” he said quickly. “Do you need water?”I nodded. He helped me sit up and held the cup while I drank. His hands were careful, but I could see the worry on his face. “You keep visiting,” I said after a while. “You should be with Amelia.”“I was there before I came,” Cole said. “The healers are watching her. I came because of something else too.”“What is it?” I asked. He took out a small wrapped box from his pocket. “Your ruby necklace was repaired. I found it after the fire. The chain was damaged, so I had it fixed.”My hand moved to the box slowly. The necklace had always felt important, but I had never fully understood why. I thought I had lost it in the fire.When I opened the box and saw the red stone inside, my fingers tightened around it. “Thank you,” I said.Cole watc

Rue’s POVI went looking for Percy the next morning, even though my body was still weak. Cole had wanted me to rest, but I could not stay still after everything I had learned.Percy had refused to see me. He had hidden his route. He had chosen silence again, and this time, I refused to let silence decide for us.I went to his medical wing first because Dr. Elias Virel was the only person who might know the truth. When I arrived, a healer tried to stop me, but Dr. Virel stepped out of the inner room and saw me.“Miss Rue,” he said. “You should still be resting.”“I need to see Percy,” I said. “Where is he?” I asked. Dr. Virel looked at the healers nearby. “Leave us.” After they left, he led me into a small consultation room and closed the door. My hands tightened. “He left, didn’t he?”“Yes,” Dr. Virel said. “He has gone to Blackridge Territory.” I became afraid. “Blackridge?
