All Chapters of REJECTED BY MY MATE, CLAIMED BY HIS ALPHA FATHER: Chapter 1 - Chapter 7

From the edge of the cliff, Maya Hart stared at the waves glowing under the moon as they crash against dark rocks.Most students loved coming here but tonight, Maya could hardly breathe.This was it. The Annual Mate Ceremony. The most important night in every female young wolf's life. The night the Moon Goddess revealed who their mate was.Behind her, thousands of students walked to the arena.The huge stone arena curved around a silver platform covered in glowing symbols. Torches burned along the walls while moonstones lit the area with a soft silver light.Everyone looked excited. Everyone except Maya."You're doing that thing again."Maya jumped and turned around.Ethan Vale stood beside her holding two cups of hot chocolate. His dark hair was messy as always and his uniform tie hung loosely around his neck. He looked completely calm.Maya wished she felt that way "What thing?" she asked."The worrying thing." He handed her one of the cups. “You’ve looked terrified all week.”Maya

For almost ten minutes, Maya stared at the opened suitcase on her bed without moving.She swallowed hard and then, picked up a sweater and folded it into the suitcase.The approved transfer papers sat beside her laptop. She was really leaving Silverclaw Academy.Part of her still couldn't accept it.For years she had dreamed of attending Mooncrest, the most prestigious academy in Lunaris, built for those meant to lead.A knock sounded at the door. Ethan stepped inside without waiting for an answer.He looked around the room. "So, this is actually happening."Maya forced a smile. "It seemed that way."Ethan shoved his hands into the pockets of his coat. His sharp sarcasm was gone. "When do you leave?""Tomorrow morning."He nodded slowly and glanced toward the window. "You know, I still think Mooncrest is losing a star."Maya laughed softly."No, it isn't.""It is." His expression became firm. "You survived this place without turning into one of these rich idiots."A tiny grin appeare

Lucas stood alone on a balcony in the Blackwood Estate. Far below, cars moved along the roads and music drifted from distant restaurants. Light glittered across the streets like stars scattered across the ground.His eyes remained fixed on his phone with the picture of Maya Hart filling the screen.He had taken the picture secretly during class a month ago. Maya wasn’t looking at the camera. Her head was bent over a notebook and a smile rested on her lipsLucas locked the screen and shoved the phone into his pocket.Ever since Maya left Mooncrest Academy, something inside him felt empty and broken.Lucas remembered walking into the dinning hall and automatically looking toward the table where she usually sat.He leaned forward against the balcony railing. The metal felt cold beneath his hands.His wolf stirred restlessly inside him. For days, it had been impossible to calm down and training or running didn’t help him.Every time he closed his eyes, he saw Maya, the shock on her face a

Maya woke up in the academy infirmary but she didn’t remember how she got there.The room smelled faintly of herbs and freshly washed linen. Morning sunlight slipped through the long windows, falling across the white sheets covering her body.Her whole body ached. When she tried to sit up, she felt a sharp pain through her shoulders and she immediately leaned back onto the pillow.The last thing she remembered was running away from the attacker through the forest. Then she remembered the silver light exploding from her and she touched her chest.She squeezed her eyes shot hoping the memory would become clearer but everything after the explosion felt like a dream.Someone had changed her clothes into an academy patient uniform and a small bandaged was wrapped around her wrist.She heard whispers outside the room.“She’s awake.”“Did you see the video?”She peeped through the bedside screen, one of the girls saw her and the conversations stopped.The bell sounded, the girls ran out and
