All Chapters of Rejected, Pregnant And Claimed : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

AMIA The smell of bacon woke me up, but I kept my eyes closed for a moment.I felt rested in a way I had not experienced in weeks.I was not alone in the room, because he was standing right there.For the first time since he took me, a quiet ache settled inside my chest.I felt the loss of what should have been a warm and comforting feeling.That sense of peace and excitement had been taken away from me.It was strange to miss something that had only lasted a few short hours.Now, I was tied to a group of strange wolves through a bond I did not ask for.To make matters worse, Zand was standing inside my bedroom."I know that you are awake, so eat your food," he said.He was still angry with me.I did not mind his anger, but I did not want to talk to him either.I thought about rolling over and ignoring him, but my stomach let out a loud rumble.My own body betrayed me."Eat for the sake of the baby," he ordered."I do not need you telling me what to do," I snapped back as I sat up.H

AMIA Curiosity killed the cat.Judging from the look Zand gave me, curiosity also killed half-werewolves.Freya was not a wealth of information, but I could use my nose to figure things out.First impressions were everything.I had released a feral wolf on a pack I had not even met yet.Zand had not mentioned our next move, but I was not one to sit and wait around.The narrative was mine to control if I got ahead of it.Three pairs of stone-cold eyes stared at me as I floated across the floor to stand by Zand.Surprise and fury vibrated within him, but he did not say a word.Many packs had Councils of Elders.Most of them did not hold any actual power, but this one had summoned Zand through a high-ranking member of his pack.Wasn't that curious?If Zand was not the highest authority here, I needed to know it.It clearly was not made up of all the elders in the territory.The old wolf from the night before was not in the room.I had difficulty believing that a pack as big as Frostbite

ZAND For fuck’s sake, Amia had been on her own for less than an hour.She had already insulted the elders, and now a challenge was starting right inside The Healing Den.Freya did not look sorry at all as I walked fast past her."Stand down," I growled at Corbin while his eyes glowed silver."Both of you."Corbin bowed his head right away, but Amia did not even look at me."Do you want everyone here to know that you are feral?"She jumped because she was surprised when I tried to talk to her using our bond, and she stepped back as if she got hit.I waited for her to attack me back, but she just bowed her head instead.I turned to look at my beta."Corbin. Tell me right now why you are challenging your omega.""She will not let Daisy go home."Amia looked up fast, and her eyes got small."Oh, Corbin, you and I are going to have real problems, are we not?""Alpha?" Daisy asked in a quiet voice."Daisy, this is not your concern," I told her softly.Had Amia lost her mind?The young girl

AMIA I finished gathering the supply list we needed and went back to collect Daisy.When I stepped into the Healing Den, the visitors were gone, and Piper sat behind her computer screen again.She did not look up at me when I opened the door."Piper, if something bad happens, how do people get your attention?" I asked while leaning on her desk."They call my phone or shout when they walk in. Oh, hello!" A real, big smile brightened her face when she raised her head."Are you here for Daisy? I ran extra medical checks, and she is fine to leave.""Good." I scanned the empty room with a frown."I wanted to ask you to come over and help her settle in, maybe stay for a girls' night because I really need one, but nobody else is working. Is there anyone else on staff with you?""Nope, just me, and I am not busy today, so I would love a girls' night. But what do we do? It cannot involve drinks since you are pregnant and Daisy is only fifteen. And while we are talking about that, when will yo

ZANDI had already reached an agreement with Shadow Oak to fund the host fees for the team along with half of the gear expenses.I was capable of paying for all the remaining expenses on my own.I saved up a good amount of money before I took control of Frostbite Ridge.Malik had also stashed away a lot of wealth that he decided not to waste on his old group.This decision would empty my funds completely, but I was confident that I would earn the money back in a short time."You have my contact details.""Call me right away if you run into any trouble.""This land is off-limits to my group, so let me know if any issue comes up."Khalil gave a quick nod and instructed his workers to head back to the vehicles to unload the gear."I am sure you all did not come here just to see workers turn up," I said to the rest of them."An omega was supposed to make things quiet and stable.""Instead, she has brought pure trouble.""Is it true that her inner wolf is wild and crazy?" Eldric asked."Di
