All Chapters of Rejected By The Alpha I Made: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Chapter Sixty One – What Really HappenedTristan’s POVThe room remained silent long after the healer finished speaking. I sat there without moving, without blinking, without saying a single word.His words continued echoing inside my head, It was Nina, she stayed with you throughout everything.The sentence refused to leave me alonec I had expected many answers when I asked that question, that was not one of them.I stared at the blanket covering my legs.For some reason, it suddenly felt difficult to breathe, not because of pain, nor because of my injuries because nothing made sense anymore.The healer shifted slightly beside the bed, perhaps he was waiting for me to say something.Perhaps he was wondering why I looked so shocked, I did not know.All I knew was that the more I thought about it, the worse it became.Slowly, I lifted my head. “If Nina was here…”My voice sounded rough, weaker than I wanted.I swallowed before continuing. “If she was here the entire time… then why w

Chapter Sixty Three – Pieces of the TruthTristan’s POVSleep refused to come no matter how many times I closed my eyes.The room was quiet, the palace was quiet, yet my mind would not stop thinking.Every answer I received only created more questions.The healer had spoken with complete confidence.Nikolai had spoken with equal confidence.The strange part was that both of them could not possibly be telling the truth because their stories were nothing alike. One of them had to be lying, I slowly rubbed my forehead.The movement made the bruises across my face ache, but I hardly noticed the pain anymore.Something else had become more important.I needed the truth, not the version people wanted me to believe, not the version that benefited anyone.The truth.I remained seated on the bed for several minutes before making a decision, If I continued listening only to the people closest to me, I would never know what really happened.I needed people who had nothing to gain. People who h

Chapter Sixty Five – How Dare YouNina’s POVMy wrist throbbed beneath Nikolai’s grip, yet he showed no sign of letting go.The harder I struggled, the tighter his fingers wrapped around my arm until it felt as though he wanted to remind me that he was stronger, that he believed I had nowhere left to run and nobody left to call for help.I lifted my eyes and looked directly at him, refusing to let him see the fear growing inside my heart because I had already cried enough over the past few days.I was tired of crying, I was tired of begging people to believe me, hI was tired of being treated as though my love for Tristan had been nothing more than a lie.“Nikolai.”I spoke his name slowly, forcing every word to remain steady despite the pain shooting through my wrist.“This is the last time I will tell you to let me go.” He smiled as though my warning amused him more than anything else.“You still think you can order me around.”“I am not ordering you.” I continued pulling against hi

Chapter Sixty Seven – I’m SorryNina’s POVThe room fell into complete silence the moment the door closed.For several long seconds, neither of us spoke.I remained exactly where I was, my fingers still wrapped tightly around the handle of my travelling bag as though letting go of it would somehow make everything that had just happened disappear.My wrist still hurt where Nikolai had held me.My heart hurt even more.The room suddenly felt too quiet after everything that had happened.Only a short while ago, angry voices had filled every corner of this place.Now there was nothing. Nothing except the sound of our breathing? I could feel Tristan looking at me, I could feel his eyes following every small movement I made.Even then, I could not bring myself to look back at him, of because I hated him, nor because I was angry.I was simply afraid. Afraid that if I looked into his eyes again, I would see the same coldness that had broken me only days ago.Afraid that everything which had

Chapter Sixty Nine – The Throne Is Not EmptyTristan’s POVThe council hall was already filled by the time I arrived.Every elder of the pack had taken his seat around the long wooden table, their faces carrying different expressions as they watched me walk into the room. Some of them looked relieved that I was finally standing on my feet again. Others looked uncertain, almost as though they were still wondering whether I truly belonged there after everything that had happened. A few avoided looking directly at me altogether, and that alone told me more than enough about the conversations that had taken place while I had been unconscious.My body had not completely recovered.Every step reminded me of that.The wounds beneath my clothes still ached, and the healer had warned me that I needed more time before returning to my full duties. Even so, there were responsibilities that could no longer wait. An Alpha could not remain hidden inside his room while others fought over his throne.
