Semua Bab Alpha's Rejected Bride: Claimed by the Ruthless King: Bab 21 - Bab 30

Chapter 21Nora had never seen Deluca look so unhinged. He was usually cold. Furious. Even punishing. But never to this point. He looked insane, like the only thing keeping him from burning the northern palace down was Nora. Nora who was currently holding his arm, pleading with him to calm down. “Deluca!” She tried to get past his fury. “Stop. Please. It’s over. You have me now.”“He put his hands on you,” he ground his jaw, eyes blazing. “I should kill him.”Behind Nora, she saw Kashton scrambling up to his feet. Maeve shrieked, going over to help him. She noticed the slightest way in which he stiffened, as if her touch repulsed him. But surely, that was impossible. There was no way Maeve could ever repulse him. He had cast Nora aside, all for Maeve’s sake.Nora stared at the pair of them now, feeling nothing but contempt. “You should leave. Both of you. You’re not welcome here.”She have no idea why Kashton would risk it and come here. Was it to flaunt his Luna in her face? Or did

Chapter 23Deluca led Nora back into the ball. But not before making sure that she wasn’t going to lose it. “I’m fine,” she told him. “Thanks for staying with me. Now, let’s go mingle with your guests.”But he didn’t lead her into the hall just yet. He called Gebros, made sure that Kashton and Maeve had already left the property. Only then did he help her up to my feet. He tucked her hand around his elbow and returned them to the party.The moment they were back, guests surrounded them. They all wanted an audience with the alpha. A contract that needed his approval. A meeting that needed to be held at the latest. Deluca handled them all efficiently, saying all the right things, while keeping a firm eye on Nora. Seeing Kashton hold her earlier was making Deluca more paranoid than Nora was used to.He refused to let go of her, holding her protectively. Everyone that stepped forward to speak to Nora was vetted by the alpha first. It was mostly the she-wolves who approached. Rich, overpri

Chapter 25Nora stared at the expressionless guards in front of her, mouth wide open. Deluca was not joking when he said that they would be taking fifteen guards with them. Nora thought that he had exaggerated the number but she was so damn wrong. He really was going all out to protect them. When Nora stepped out of the pack house with Deluca, a total of fifteen bodyguards were already waiting for them outside. As soon as Deluca and Nora appeared in front of them, they bowed their heads in a subservient manner And then, they all got into the cars that were already prepared. There were more than ten cars, and the one Nora and Deluca were about to take was in the middle. Nora looked at Deluca, biting her lips with some reluctance, was there really a need for them to be so careful? Deluca smiled when he saw the reluctant expression on Nora's face. He knew that she would not be comfortable with so many people following them, but with so many packs eyeing him now, he knew he had

Chapter 27When Nora opened her eyes again, she realised that she was back in the pack house, lying on the bed. She tried to sit up on the bed, but the sharp pang of pain that she felt forced her to lie back down again. Everything was blurry in her eyes, and it took her a few seconds for her to regain herself. When she managed to open her eyes and sit on the bed, the past events started to come back to her fully. She and Deluca had been attacked when they had just been having a nice day out...and it was obviously Kashton who carried out that attack! Nora clenched her fists tightly as she felt anger flow through her veins, she had seen a few of the men who attacked , although she could not see their faces , the armour that they wore was easily recognisable. They were from Kashton's pack! To think that he would be doing something like this ..did he not have a pack to run? Nora was so upset just thinking about it. Besides anger, she was also feeling guilty, because she felt like sh

Chapter 29Nora was curled up in a corner of the bed, as she whimpered softly. Her dress was already back on, but for some reason, she still felt empty and exposed. She hated herself more than anything, what the heck was wrong with her? She loved Deluca....she knew that she loved him with all of her heart...so why was her wolf still rejecting him? Were they going to be like this forever?Deluca, who had been a bit disappointed when Nora pushed him away and called for him to stop, paused when he saw the way Nora was whimpering. He knew that she was sadder than him about this,and so his heart could not help but go out to her ."Please don't feel sad about this, Nora, it's not your fault," Deluca said in a bid to comfort her. Nora looked up at the man who was now properly dressed , she could not believe that this was the man who had come so close to having his way with her. Even though he was disappointed, he did not show it at all. Nora's heart felt heavy, and she was choking up wi
