All Chapters of REBORN INTACT: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

JELENA“Ma, you sent for me?” I say as I step into the room and come face to face with my stepmother, Vanessa.Her room or should I say their room has always been large, almost unnecessarily so. It carries a kind of quiet luxury that feels cold rather than comforting, the heavy curtains are drawn halfway, allowing thin lines of sunlight to spill across polished floors and expensive furniture. Everything is perfectly arranged, untouched, as if no real life happens here.Although it is meant to belong to both her and my father, he is rarely ever present, he is always away on one “work trip” or another, managing his carpentry business or at least, that is what everyone says. In truth, his work stretches far beyond wood and tools, his hands are not as clean as people believe, but I have learned not to look too deeply into that part of his life.We are wealthy more than most in the area and my father is known as the biggest and most successful carpenter around, yet, that has never been eno

JELENA“Open it,” I snap, my voice sharper than I intend, but I don’t take it back.“Miss Jelena,” he says carefully, stepping forward as if to intercept me. “Master Aaron is currently unavailable.”Unavailable, the word grates.“I didn’t ask,” I reply, already pushing past him.His hand comes up not touching me, but close enough to block my path. “It would be best if you returned later.”Something inside me snaps.“Move.”He doesn’t and for a moment, we stand there locked in a silent struggle that has nothing to do with strength and everything to do with control. I can see it in his eyes, he’s afraid, not of me but of what will happen if I go inside.That fear tells me everything and my chest tightens.“Move,” I repeat, quieter this time, but far more dangerous.He exhales slowly, as if calculating the consequences, and then steps aside and i know it's nott because he wants to but because he has no choice, he knows that Aaron doesn't joke with his property and whatever lies in there

JELENADad clears his throat, and immediately, all attention in the room shifts to him as the subtle clinking of cutlery on plates halts mid-air, and even the low hum of conversation dies down, replaced by a tense silence that blankets the entire dining hall.“Aaron, can you repeat what you said to me on the phone two nights ago?” he asks, his voice steady but carrying an undertone of curiosity and there’s a weight to it, a sort of cautious authority that makes everyone hold their breath.Dad isn't an Alpha but maybe age or experience, but he does well to hold himself against all Alpha’s, all except one, and that memory lives rent free in my head I glance at Aaron, my chest tightening, and I notice a slight stiffening in his shoulders, he takes a slow, measured breath and straightens his posture, though the slight tremor in his voice betrays him.“Thank you, sir,” he begins, his words deliberate, almost rehearsed. “I would like everyone to know that we are planning to fix a date for

JELENABecoming a veterinary nurse wasn’t really an issue for me. Deep down, maybe it was because I wanted my father’s approval, or maybe because I desperately wanted to feel useful to the pack.My life goal had always been to become a doctor, but my body simply couldn’t keep up with the stress and endless workload. I was more human than wolf, and I suffered from the same things humans did and the pressure constantly made me sick, so eventually, I gave up.I had the brains for it though and that was the painful part, I still remembered the day I told Father I wanted to quit school and take a break and the memory remained permanently etched into my heart.“I thought you could at least be useful. You’re just like your mother, she couldn’t even stay alive for a child she claimed to love,” he had said calmly from behind his office desk.Those words pierced through me like blades and even now, my eyes watered whenever I thought about that mome

JELENAMy heart is racing really fast and even though the scent is fading I still feel weak to the bones and I didn't do anything “Jelena” I hear Aaron's voice from outside finally“I'm in here” I say with a small voiceThe relieve is instant“See, he cares”I say to my mind“Are you good?? Can I come in?” He asks frantically“No I'm good, I will be out shortly” I say Finally, he has come to save me, I knew I could count on him especially in moments like this, I heave a sigh of relieve internally The moment I stand up from where I tried to stay hidden, my vision becomes blurry instantly that I wave a bit making me kick something“Jelena, are you sure you are good, sure I shouldn't come in?” He asks again“Nope I'm good” I respond back opening the door“I'm sorry I took that long” I say apologizing“It's fine but we have to go home right now, I got a call, an attack on the pack so can you get things running and packed in ten minutes time?” He asks“We can go straight to the airport i
