All Chapters of Rejected and Reclaimed (The Alpha’s regret) : Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

“Are you happy with Daniela? She will be the perfect Luna for you. Then why,” her gaze hardened, “are you chasing a weak, pathetic human who betrayed you and ran away from you, Gideon Woodbead?” She hit the nerve with cruel precision. Gideon’s eyes darkened, a pitch black, as though the light had been devoured from within. Wrath rose in him to break out. Angela’s heart lurched, but she did not retreat. Her knees threatened to fall, yet she stood upright, chin lifted in defiance. Before the silence could turn deadly, Draven appeared in their vision. “Mr. Woodbead,” he smiled smoothly, “since your beta is Rebecca’s mate, we are celebrating double tonight. Let’s toast to that.” He invited him for the drink. Angela felt Gideon’s hand loosen from her waist. She slipped away from his hold as He turned toward Draven. “Of course, Mr. Griffin.” They moved to the reserved table where Rebecca, Dash, and Daniela were already seated. Crystal glasses shimmered under golden lights as th

“Mr. Woodbead, why don’t you stay a little longer? The party is still ongoing,” Draven suggested casually as they sipped their drinks, waiting for Angela.Rebecca was completely drunk, swaying like a loose thread in the wind while Dash struggled to keep her upright, which distracted him from watching the Clampitt sisters.Draven kept glancing toward the hallway.How long are you going to take, Angela?He tried to keep the conversation flowing, but Daniela had clearly made up her mind to leave.“Thank you for inviting us, Mr. Griffin, but we must take our leave. I have a flight to catch, and Gideon has urgent matters to attend to,” she said politely, throwing a meaningful glance at Gideon. He nodded.Draven watched him carefully.No reaction. No irritation. No visible effect. The potion didn’t work on him?He could no longer insist without raising suspicion, so he gave in with a stiff nod. Angela would be furious later, but letting them leave peacefully was safer than making this look

“What the Fuck!” The high-pitched sound of a slap echoed in the room as Gideon’s face snapped abruptly to his left.And it was beyond shocking! Gideon Woodbead was stunned to the core that she slapped him, the Alpha King. A human! Even if she was his wife, his mate, how dare she strike him?It was not under the drug effect, right?His eyes flashed as anger rose through every cell of his naked body, and a loud growl rippled through the air.Ever so slowly, Gideon turned his enraged eyes toward her face and gritted his teeth tightly, but the moment He snarled, Angela cried out.“YOU….”“What do you take me as? A property, a thing, or a clown that you can take or reject as you desire?” she sobbed. Suddenly, that vicious smile of her sister flashed before her vision, and her words rang in her ears.“Why did you do this to me, Gideon? If you wanted a child that badly, you could have asked me. We have, Ax..” She hiccupped sharply and let out a loud sob. Something stopped her. Gideon blin

“I don’t understand!” Angela whispered, exhaling as her body loosened. The drug had fully seized her senses. She couldn’t grasp his words but only him. Everything else faded. She only wanted him to continue whatever He was doing.Gideon’s eyes flickered as He stared into the night through the window, waiting for the full moon to rise. That was the purpose of tonight, to mark her on her birthday.Just a little more time! “Relax,” He murmured, brushing a soft kiss over her lips before trailing them down to her stomach, to her navel, descending toward her panty clad heaven. His sweet heaven.He inhaled her arousal before moving to her thighs, easing them apart. Angela bit her lower lip and fisted the bedsheet as his lips grazed her inner thigh, drawing a helpless moan from her.“What don’t you understand, Angela Woodbead? Tell me.” His thumbs stroked the delicate skin there, earning another gasp as his kisses traveled down her legs to her toes. “Why…what are we doing?” She breathed out

Her weakness?Angela’s heart jolted at his words. Her thoughts rushed to Axel, because her son was the only weakness she had left, and there was no way in hell she could afford to lose him. Did He already know about Axel? She dreaded. “I can hear your heartbeat clearly, loudly, Angela!” He leaned closer to provoke her, but Angela pushed him away and instantly slipped away. “I need to go!” she muttered, trying to escape, but Gideon caught her wrist, yanked her back, and dragged her before the mirror, locking her in his arms from behind. “Where to? To your imposter Mate?” He asked mockingly, and Angela clenched her jaws in fury, hating how easily He intimidated and controlled her, and how He always walked away after insulting her. “Look at yourself closely, Wife. The mark I gave you…” He slid the shirt off her shoulders and traced the golden mark at her soft spot, making her shudder as his fingertip grazed her skin. Angela shut her eyes, fighting her own reactions, refusing to fee
