Rejected Omega: Claimed By Her Ex's Uncle のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

Reina's POV The capital was everything the stories had promised: a sprawling, glittering expanse of opportunity and danger. But as the car rolled through the iron gates of the inner city, I knew the darker truth. In this place, hierarchy was everything. Rogues were outcasts, omegas were overlooked, and those who dared to leave their packs were treated like traitors.The Alpha King and the Royal Family had always been distant myths to me, figures of power I never imagined I’d see, let alone be associated with. But after a brief conversation with Damon’s Beta earlier in the breakfast table, I realized my new reality. Damon didn't just have a "relationship" with them; he was their sword. I was about to be tangled in a web of politics that I was never prepared for."You've been staring outside for too long," Damon’s deep voice pulled me out of my thoughts.I blinked, realizing I had been pressing my forehead against the glass of the car window. "It's just... The city is bigger than I i

Reina’s POV“Zayne is my nephew,” Damon revealed as he closed the distance between us. He reached out and gently took the photo frame from my trembling fingers, his thumb brushing over the glass. “I believe this was taken when he visited me here in the capital; he must have been fifteen at the time.” A smile played on his lips, a rare look of familial affection that made my stomach twist into knots.But then, the smile vanished. His golden eyes locked onto mine, searching for an answer. “But why are you asking about him? He became the Alpha only yesterday.” He stepped into my personal space, his presence suddenly looming. “Don’t tell me he’s the one who hurt you. Did he bully you? Did he use his status to make your life difficult?”The darkness that flooded his expression was terrifying. It was the look of a man ready to tear the world apart for a slight against what was his.“No,” I whispered. I couldn't bring myself to tell him the humiliating truth that Zayne hadn't just bullied me;

Zayne’s POV“Mariana, I am sorry for not being able to contact you after I left for the capital last night. I had been busy at work the entire day,” I said, my voice softening as I tried to smooth over the tension from her missed calls.“It’s alright,” Mariana replied. Her voice lacked the usual flirtatious spark that had drawn me to her in the first place.“Why do you sound so low?” I asked, swirling the wine in my glass. My mind was already thinking of the possibilities if someone had disrespected her in my absence.“Because of Reina.”My grip tightened on the glass. Of course. Even from miles away, that woman was still casting a shadow over my life. “Did she do something? Tell me! I will get her banished from the pack if she has harmed the future Luna. I don't care about our history anymore.” I was losing my patience. Could Reina not just accept her place? Could she not digest the fact that I was moving on to bigger and better things without her?“Reina married an Alpha last night,

Reina’s POVI couldn’t hold back the tide of emotion a second longer. Hearing Zayne spit the word illegitimate at me, the same word he’d used to justify tossing me aside like a piece of refuse, made my blood boil. But before the tears of rage could even fall, the air in the room seemed to vanish.Damon's hand moved like a predator. He didn't just grab Zayne; he clamped his hand around his nephew’s throat and hoisted him off the marble floor.I stood there, paralyzed, watching as Zayne’s feet dangled uselessly, his legs kicking at the empty air. The sound coming from his throat was a horrific, wet rattling. Damon’s fingers were buried deep in the flesh of Zayne’s neck, his veins bulging in his arm with a strength that was terrifying to behold. Zayne’s face transitioned from a frantic red to a shade of purple."Shut your mouth!" Damon’s voice wasn't a shout; it was the sound of a god delivering a sentence. "And stop lying in front of me. You know how much I hate a liar."Zayne’s hands c

Reina’s POVI tried to scour my memories from the day the previous Alpha and Luna Kingsley were lost. I was just a teenager, tucked away in the shadows of a pack that didn't want me. I had never even spoken to them. How could I be the cause of their deaths? The logic wasn't there, but Zayne’s words had wounded me deeply. I had made a silent pact with myself never to shed another tear for the man who had killed my trust. I wanted to be cold. I wanted to be indifferent. But as I sat in the secluded gazebo, the words of his hatred crushed me more and more. I cried until my chest ached, the sobs racking my body in a display of weakness I had fought so hard to hide.The accusations hadn't just scratched the surface; they had dug into the old scars of my illegitimacy, making me feel like a sin.I stayed there for over an hour. When I finally felt better, I stood up, smoothing out my dress. I needed to go back inside and face my reality.As I stepped out of the gazebo, I froze.Damon was t
