All Chapters of The Alpha Rejected Me, So I Became A Warrior : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Lisa's POVHe lunged at me without warning, driving his knee straight toward my stomach.I tried to dodge, but I wasn't fast enough. His knee slammed into my abdomen, knocking the air from my lungs.Pain exploded through my body as I crashed onto the floor."So you think you can take us on?" he sneered.Before I could recover, his boot struck my side, sending another wave of agony through me.Kael was right… this room was never meant to be mine.Gritting my teeth, I forced myself back onto my feet."Fine." I swallowed the pain and met his gaze. "I'll leave." My voice was steady despite the blood pooling in my mouth. "But if this place turns into a filthy mess again, don't expect me to clean it."Without waiting for another word, I picked up the bag Kael had given me earlier and stuffed my gown inside.As I limped toward the door, my eyes drifted to the servants standing nearby.Is this what they've become? How shameless.I walked away.Every step sent fresh pain shooting through my bo

Lisa's POV"Enough."The single word had barely left Kael's mouth before my legs gave out beneath me.I hit the ground with a soft thud, my entire body trembling uncontrollably. Sweat streamed down my face and dripped onto the grass.I couldn't even lift my arms."I... can't..." I gasped between breaths.Kael stood over me. "You held your stance for nearly four minutes."Just four minutes? Why does it feel longer?"Control your breathing," he instructed. "Slow breaths. Through your nose. Out through your mouth."I shot him an exhausted glare. "So... you're saying... I shouldn't... die yet?"The corner of his lips twitched. "I'd prefer it if my trainee survived the first day."Before I could stop myself, a weak laugh escaped me.I closed my eyes and did as he instructed, inhaling slowly before exhaling just as steadily.Little by little, my heartbeat settled. The burning in my chest eased, though the ache throughout my body remained.I heard footsteps and quickly opened one eye, watchi

Lisa's POV"Calm down?" I let out a bitter laugh. "Like I'm some raging beast? Or a machine that can simply switch off my emotions?""To hell with you... and your truth!"I shouted the last words just as Kael stepped outside and quietly closed the door behind him.My knees gave out, and I sank onto the floor once more.How could he? But what exactly was I so angry about?His words echoed:"When you've calmed down... and you're ready to hear the truth... come to my room."Nyra spoke softly. 'He's still under the Alpha's orders. He was assigned to train you'"So?"'Do you think... maybe you're overreacting?'I frowned. "Whose side are you on?"Nyra giggled. 'Maybe yours... but that doesn't mean you're always right'I wiped my cheeks before pushing myself to my feet."Then why didn't he tell me?" I muttered. "If he trusted me... if I really mattered to him... why keep it a secret?"'Maybe he wanted to tell you but couldn't'I shook my head. "I thought we were getting closer."'Then hear

Lisa's POVMy stomach twisted.So... they had been intimate all this time? Behind my back and I hadn't known a thing."You don't have anything to say?" Elara asked, pulling me from my spiraling thoughts. "I thought you'd be happy to hear such wonderful news."I lifted my eyes to meet hers, forcing the corners of my lips into a smile.For a fleeting moment, Kael's playful wink flashed through my mind.This hurt far more than I'd imagined.I drew in a slow, steady breath."Congratulations to both of you," I managed to say.She let out a delicate laugh, covering her mouth with the tips of her fingers. "That's more like it. Thank you.""You're welcome." I turned toward the woman holding the measuring tape. "Can she continue taking my measurements... Luna?"A satisfied smile spread across Elara's face."I like the way that sounds coming from you." She lifted her chin proudly. "But I'd prefer if you added my name to the title."You really are sick in the head.My jaw tightened."And why sho

Lisa's POVVarek charged with a furious roar, his sword slicing through the air with strength to split stone.Kael didn't retreat; instead, he met the attack head-on as steel clashed against steel.The crowd watched with bated breath as the two warriors exchanged blow after blow. Kael slipped beneath another swing, spun behind Varek, and drove the hilt of his sword into his ribs.Varek staggered and before he could recover, Kael pivoted and landed a crushing kick against his chest.The impact sent Varek crashing backward as the entire arena fell silent.Kael didn't give him a chance to rise. In a blur of motion, he closed the distance, planted one boot firmly against Varek's chest, and lowered his sword until its edge rested against Varek's throat."Enough."Varek glared up at him, his fists trembling with frustration, but he knew he had lost.The spectators remained frozen in stunned silence. Only moments ago, they had expected Kael to be defeated.At that moment, my wolf receded; w
