All Chapters of THE REJECTED MATE RETURNED WITH RIVAL ALPHA'S RING: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

CHAPTER TWO ***MEI'S POV *** The scent of daffodils and roses immediately fill my nostrils as I alight from the car. The air is pure and fresh. I close my eyes and inhale deeply as I let the air calm me down. Curtis reaches to shut door behind me and I ogle the environment in awe. It's beautiful. It's unfortunate this belongs to the alpha of shadow crest—Borin. I did some research on him and his pack before coming. My informant tells me he was given this how many years ago. Kind of like an initiation gift. There are flowers everywhere. Each of different species. This is a huge contrast to my mansion back at Moss city. I never really liked the calm country life because too much quiet led me to think of my bond and rejection. After I left Vos, I decided the only way to move past the pain was to drown myself in work and surprisingly, it turned out effective. What intrigues me more, is how Borin's estate is very much in the city, but he's somehow managed to turn thi

BONUS CHAPTER ***BORIN'S POV*** The heavy oak doors click shut, cutting off the lingering scent of vintage grape wine and the sharp, electrifying pull of lightning and ozone that always accompanies Mei Chatteris. ​ The silence lasts for all of two seconds before the boardroom completely explodes. ​"She is entirely out of line!" Gavin barks, slamming his fist onto the polished wood. ​ "She insulted the Shadowcrest lineage!" the red-haired elder—Rowe—snarls, his face flushing to match his hair. His brows crease, forming deep lines on his forehead. "Walking out of a negotiation? Threatening the Alpha? She thinks her human millions give her the right to treat us like corporate underlings." He continues and I lean back into my seat as I tap my pen rhythmically on the wood surface. ​ "She’s too arrogant," Mo chimes in, shaking his head. His curls wriggling slightly as they follow his movements. "A lone wolf who has spent too much time playing god in the human world. We should

CHAPTER FIVE ***MEI'S POV*** The cinnamon rolls in my mouth instantly taste like ash. "What do you mean they made their move?" I demand, my voice dropping two octaves lower. The atmosphere thickens as the scent of my aura fills the room. Curtis looks at me. His shoulders are slack and his face is pale. A very rare sight for even my unflappable omega. "The head of security called. He said there was a breach." He finally says, after what feels like a thousand years. I pinch the skin on my brows. Can't I even have a few hours to myself? My gaze sweeps through the room briefly before settling on mama. She looks pale too, her fingers fumbling with the buttons on her shirt. The green glint in her eyes is now evident. I instinctively reach for her hands and touch them for a brief moment, signalling for her to conceal her eyes. Mama might be a pretty generous and good person, but her kind is still hunted. Decades ago, the Unified Council of packs branded the Moonveil pac

CHAPTER SIX ***BORIN'S POV*** I let out a breathy sighs as I enter my bedroom. The room is quiet and cold. Just how I like it. I must've left the air conditioning switched on before leaving for my office a few rooms away. I decided to work from home today. Emily and I, spending Hours reviewing costs, liabilities and expenses. I sigh as I plop down on my bed, spreading my arms and legs as wide as they can go. Finally. It's been a long day and I'd like to have some alone time but that's impossible because Chatteris thought it would be fun to chat about business over dinner. I pinch the skin between my brows and force myself to sit up on the bed. As much as I don't appreciate my evenings being interrupted, I can make an exception for Chatteris. I have to. My phone pings with a m

CHAPTER EIGHT *** MEI'S POV *** "Oh shit. I'm so sorry." A feminine voice says as Borin and I turn to see the cause of the ruckus. The lady, frozen at the both of us like she's seen ghosts. "Oh my God, Miss. Chatteris, it's really you....in flesh and blood." The lady says as her eyes dart between Borin and I. I fight the urge to roll my eyes as I stare right back at her, my eyes portraying no emotion. Borin looks at her too—observing as she fiddles with her shirt, still frozen in place.I've been recognised, and it'll only take a few minutes before paparazzi flood this place if she decides to be a blabbermouth.One quiet evening. I just needed one quiet evening."Oh my God Talia. Just one task, one task I asked you to take care of." A man says, immediately he comes into the room. He glares at her before approaching our table. "I am so sorry for the inconvenience. I had to use the bathroom and I thought she'd be able to handle it." He says, apologies written all over his face.
