All Chapters of Rejected By Alpha Ethan, Chosen By The Alpha King: Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

Sophia.The mansion buzzed with life in a way it hadn't in months. Staff moved around the house with so much energy, cleaning every single marble counter until they gleamed, arranging fresh flowers in every corner, and ensuring every detail was flawless and good to go. It was a chaos that felt controlled, the kind that came with preparing for an Alpha's return.I stood in the grand foyer, watching the frenzy unfold around me. A smile tugged at my lips as I observed our head housekeeper directing the maids with so much caution."The main house needs more cleaning." Mrs Chen, the head uttered to younger maids, pointing into the house. I loved how she had taken it upon herself to make sure that everything was sparkling and in place.But the question was, would he like it?She turned to me with a smile, as she had heard what i had said. "He will like, Luna. But not because of the flowers. He will be impressed because you are here, always."Heat crept up my neck as she pointed that out, a

It was late enough that most people had gone to bed, which meant I could finally think without someone demanding something from me.My father had been relentless today, more relentless than usual, anyway.First, it was the same lecture about how being single made me weak. How not having a wife would cost me my title. Then came the blind date he'd arranged without asking, which I'd deliberately sabotaged because I wasn't in the mood to pretend to be interested in another woman he'd picked out.The fight that followed was inevitable."You keep this up and I am giving your title to your brother!" he had shouted, his face turning red the way it always did when he didn't get his way."Either find yourself a wife from the women I've cho
