All Chapters of Once Rejected, Twice Desired: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

Alexi POVWe had been going for weeks trying to find out all we could about Vincent and his family’s claim to Alaia, but we continuously came up empty. It was like he was a ghost, or a phantom. The only people who had ever heard of him only heard rumors or far-fetched stories that never panned out. We were three weeks from Alaia’s due date and were becoming more and more worried.There were no more rogue sightings on our territory, but they were still out there. When the time came for Vincent to make his move, he would do it through the rogues, of this much we were sure.It was around 3:00 AM, and we were five hours into a strategy meeting. Everyone was exhausted, and the ideas we were coming up with were increasingly worse than the ones before them. Kade was standing and looking at the territory map, trying to explain some trap door idea he had. It sounded insane.Out of nowhere, it hit me.Alaia!I shot up from my chair, which caused the room to turn in my direction.“Sorry, Kade,

Alaia POVI woke up a few hours later, my throat raw from all the screaming I had done earlier.When I opened my eyes, I saw Alexi sitting in the corner working on his laptop while Xander was asleep in a chair in another corner.“Could I have some water, please?” I croaked out.Alexi’s eyes shot up, and he was instantly standing next to me with the cup of water.“How do you feel, Angel? Should I call for the doctor?”He helped me sit up, and after I gulped the water down, I passed the glass back and shook my head at him.“I’m okay, we don’t need to call anyone yet.”“What happened, Alaia? You scared the shit out of Xander and me. We thought we were losing you.”I figured I couldn’t hold this any longer. I had to tell them what I knew and what I had been doing.“Will you wake Xander up, please? I might as well get this over with all at once.”He looked at me suspiciously.“Get what over with, Angel?”“I’ll tell you in a moment. Just wake him up, please.”Alexi gave me another question

Alaia POV Crystal, the wedding planner, and I scrambled, but somehow we were able to pull together a decent ceremony that would take place in three days in the backyard of the pack house. Katherine helped us out with flowers, decorations, and tables and chairs. Geoff took on the task of catering the reception, and Mrs. Dyson agreed to make the cake. Everything was coming together smoothly, and all we needed was my dress. The Thursday before the wedding, my mom, Katherine, Lauren, Jordyn, Cassie, and Kimmy came to take me “dress shopping.” I had been released from the hospital a couple of days prior under the agreement that I did as little as possible until the babies arrived, but that was easier said than done when you’re planning a double wedding. The ladies had pulled together around twenty dresses and had them all set up in my dressing room. I just had to waddle in and take a seat while they were all brought over to me to choose the one I wanted. There were so many different fa

Xander POV After Matt left with Taylor, the rest of us basically just relaxed in our booth and enjoyed our drinks. Kade went back across the hall for more private dances, but Aaron, Alexi, and I were happy where we were. “Well, Aaron, you said tonight would be epic, and you were right. Matt’s been looking for his mate for far too long. It’s crazy that he finds her here, of all places.”“I’m curious what type of girl she is. And the fact that she is human makes me a little weary. I don’t want to see him get hurt,” Alexi said. “I’m sure she’s great. The Moon Goddess wouldn’t pair her with him if she weren’t worthy. Now let’s do some shots, this is our last night as free men.”I poured three shots, and we quickly tossed them back before I refilled our glasses to do it all over again. An hour later, we had gone through all three bottles we had at our table and called for three more when Kade staggered in with lipstick stains on his neck, smelling of way too strong perfume. “Kade, you

Alaia POVThe babies and I spent three days in the hospital before we were cleared to go. They were both healthy and happy little boys, and I was grateful for that. I was also grateful that I was 100% healed downstairs. There was no more pain, soreness, or bleeding. As wolves, we usually take about a week to fully bounce back, but because of my powers, that time was cut in half. And I was ready to spend some quality time with my husbands. After all the bags were packed up, Xander and Alexi both took a baby and headed up to the nursery. I, on the other hand, went to our room for a nice, long bath. I was able to take showers in the hospital, but I never felt clean enough. A hot soak in the tub was calling my name. I ran the water as hot as I could stand it before I added my scented bubbling oils, lit a few candles, and sank into my own personal heaven. It was strange running my hand over my stomach, which was now completely flat again. I had gotten so used to the belly that it felt l
