All Chapters of Rejected, Then Claimed. The Alpha's Echo Luna : Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

Kate’s P.O.V.Riveted to my spot, I stood by the window, gawking at Kayla in the garden. She looked… perfect. Her lilac dress was modest and elegant, her hair styled beautifully, and a polite smile resting on her lips. She carried herself with a calm dignity I didn’t remember seeing five years ago. But she still looked like the perfect role model everyone loved. The baby in her arms somehow made her look more complete. My eyes lingered on her face for a moment longer than I intended. “How can she look so perfect after having a child?”I remembered myself during the first year after my sons were born. Messy hair, dark circles beneath my eyes, clothes that barely matched, and a body that felt like it belonged to someone else were all I could manage that time. There had been days when I looked as if I had wandered in from the streets. But Kayla was perfect at motherhood too!There was a reason that the entire Wild Prowlers Pack always looked up to her. A bitter smile touched my lips

Kate’s P.O.V.“Is this true, Mommy?”Knox’s excited voice echoed in my ears. I looked at my pup through the rearview mirror, their eyes brightening with curiosity.For a moment, I was taken back to the time when Osiris and I hadn’t gone on dates without an army of guards following us. There had been so many moments when I genuinely felt loved.I couldn’t deny that just because everything had ended badly. “Yes!” I replied, “We came here before you were born.”My little boys erupted into an excited chatter. “Yay! We are going back.”I couldn’t help smiling at their excitement. When I glanced toward Osiris, I noticed the tension that had been sitting around his eyes disappeared. He looked almost relieved as a soft smile curved his lips.Before that charming smile could stir my wolf, I quickly turned my attention back to my sons. Thankfully, the roads were unusually clear. Osiris had arranged security ahead of us, and the warriors had kept the route open.It meant I didn’t have to list

Kate’s P.O.V.“My home?”I gawked at the papers in my hands. For several seconds, my brain stopped functioning. The word ‘home’ touched my heart deeply.I had never wished for luxury or wealth. After spending years as an omega, my only wish was to have a warm home, a place I could call mine. A place where no one would have the right to kick me out of my safe space.When fate unexpectedly blessed me with a fated mate, I thought I had found home. In fact, I poured my whole energy into getting everyone’s approval here. But today, Osiris has freed me from all the fears. He gave me the ownership of thousands of miles, calling it a home. My heart stumbled over its rhythm. Nyx whispered.“See, Kate. Mate hasn’t used his ownership deed to cage us. He didn’t ask for forgiveness in return. He just gave it to us.”Exactly!That was the kind of man the moon goddess paired with me. Osiris never reminded me of anything he had ever given to me. He didn’t point out how much he had done for me. He j

Kate’s P.O.V.My mind went blank. I choked out. “An alarm?”“Yes.” His eyes softened. “As Echo Wolves don't belong to any specific bloodline, it is believed that they are messengers of the goddess. She gives the Alpha one final chance to recognize the corruption around him, mend his ways, and save his pack.”A bucket of cold water was poured over my existence, freezing me to my spot. I couldn't breathe, my mind racing in every possible direction wildly..For five long years, I considered my wolf as a curse, the reason I had to leave my mate’s home. In those dark nights, I secretly imagined my life if I had remained an ordinary omega and stayed by Osiris’s side as his Luna. He had promised to never take a mistress, so at least my kids would be safe in the Kessler residence. However, the truth had simply been lost. I blamed my wolf for nothing. I looked down at my hands, my eyes burning. The knot that had lived inside my chest for years slowly began to loosen.“So...” My voice tremble

Kate’s P.O.V.Relief washed over me when Osiris said he would let Martin through the border. At least one thing had gone right.I had been terrified after seeing Orion cough blood. The flare-up had scared me more than I wanted to admit. That was why I had contacted Martin immediately.His herbal medicine had helped Orion before. I needed him to tell me whether today's incident had damaged Orion's recovery.I was waiting for Osiris to finish the mind-link and confirm that the border guards had received his orders, but his expression changed all of a sudden.His shoulders stiffened. A low growl vibrated through his chest as his eyes flashed gold. I became alert. “What happened?”Osiris snapped his head toward me. “There’s an attack at the border.”The news of the sudden attack made my stomach twist. I spoke hurriedly. “That’s bad. You have to go.”Osiris's gaze flicked to the bed.“But Orion needs me.”I followed his gaze and assured him. “I'll stay with him. Go and defend the pack.”
