The Lycan's Rejected Mate のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 181 - チャプター 190

“Breathe, Isa. The council are good people now. They have been on their best behaviour since their apology, and have been extremely helpful to the pack, like they are meant to be. You have nothing to worry about,” I whispered soothingly, rubbing her back in gentle, circular motions. She sighed, reaching out to smooth out her furrowed temples. “I know. I know I have nothing to worry about, but I just… I have been feeling very restless lately, and my instincts keep screaming at me. The fact that they sent an official missive to request for a meeting rather than just coming here like they usually do makes me even more edgy.”Isadora might not be willing to confront her feelings about why she had been restless and edgy for a while now, but I knew the reason. It was because of her pregnancy. Ever since we had that conversation about the scientist and the experiments carried out on her, she had been a little bit in her head. Sometimes, my Little wolf would just zone out in the middle of

“She is a danger to us all. We want her gone!”Elias was at the verge of exploding. I could see it. His veins were rising out of his neck and his face was contorted so hard that it would have scared me. But it didn’t, because I was angry too.Before Elias could say anything to the outburst of the Alphas from the other packs, I stood up calmly, masking the rage that was rising swiftly in my blood, and spoke. “No, you don’t. I am your Luna, and right now all of you are just being unreasonable bullies. There is nothing wrong with me, or my child. And I am definitely not a risk to any of the packs. I will NOT listen to you sit here and disrespect me,” I snapped. Their representative stood up and faced me with a grimace. “With all due respect, Luna, you are abnormal. Of course we are wary of you. And we do not want you to birth an abomination that will definitely cause more harm than good, so we want you to leave. We cannot risk the future of our packs on a child that might turn out to

If a pin dropped right now, every single person sitting in this room would hear it land. The council members exchanged wary looks among themselves, and it seemed to me like they were too scared of Elias to look him in the face. Especially considering how angry he was at the last meeting we had with them. Today though, Elias looked calm. His expression was placid, which was a surprise because we all knew what the council was here to discuss. Was he waiting for them to say what new opinion they had to share before his fuse went off, or was he considering going down the path of just ignoring the shit out of them?“You realise that they are too scared to talk to you, right? That's why we've been here for minutes with none of them saying anything,” I said into his head when the silence got unbearable. I had better things to do than to sit here and argue with the council about the nature of my child. They weren't worth it, and I was done letting them get into my head. Elias cocked hi

“You have a special child, Luna. He is most definitely not normal. There is some sort of etherealism to him, and his aura is very bright. It is unsure if he will bring doom or glory to the pack. That, I cannot say. But you have nothing to worry about on the scientific front. The man who made you into a werewolf was careful not to tamper with your womb. Deeper forces however, are at play. You need to be very very careful.”The witch smiled at the end of her speech, and a frown formed on my face. That was very vague. She gave no indication about the child, if he was going to be bad for the pack or not. Isadora looked shocked, her face blanched as she stared at the witch. My mate looked freaked out, and I felt a surge of annoyance and intense at the witch. I wish I had not listened to Isadora. If things had gone my way, this weird ass woman would not be here. “What exactly does that mean? Is the child going to be good for the pack? Do I have nothing to worry about? You are not giving m

“Hey. Are you okay?” Patrick asked, and my eyes flew open at the sound of his voice. Turning around to face him, a sigh slipped past my lips. I shook my head at his question. “No. I am not okay, and you know that. I'm just…hell, I don't even know how I feel,” I mumbled, exhaustion obvious in my words as I held his gaze. He took a seat beside me before speaking. “I figured. I…well, things have been intense for the past few days now and it's hard to settle on just one feeling. So I get you. I kind of understand what you're going through.”His words were meant to be reassuring, and a part of me felt slightly reassured, but I also wanted to tell him that there was no way he could possibly relate to the turmoil inside me. Elias wasn't his cousin, he was mine. Isadora wasn't his sister in law, she was mine. They were my family, not his, so how could his heart possibly be aching in a very intense way for them, just like mine was?I didn't say any of that though. Instead I looked away a
