All Chapters of Reborn Mate: Rejected By The Hexed Alpha: Chapter 1 - Chapter 8

—Rhea—I stood still, taking in everything around me. Was I already dead? But this place—yes, I remembered it now. This was the grand hall, where all the important events happened. It was where the whole Sollene pack came together.I glanced around. The hall was packed and filled with chatter. Wasn’t this the night of my coronation as Sollene's Luna?I managed a bitter smile. Luna? The Luna who failed and was struck down by a poisoned arrow?While I tried to make sense of what was happening and why I was back in this hall, the main doors swung open. Three elders in black robes walked in, followed by a striking, regal man. His face was cold and his eyes sharp. This was Alpha Callum, the mate the Moon Goddess had chosen for me.I was stunned. The mate-bond between us flared up, strong and overwhelming, and I couldn’t look away. My wolf inside me jumped with joy. But then a chill swept over me, making my wolf shiver.Suddenly, all the noise in the hall stopped. Silence filled the room. E

—Callum—I stood frozen and tense, watching the brave girl walk confidently out of the chaotic hall.I never imagined things would turn out this way. Rhea didn’t hesitate to refuse my rejection. She ignored the pressure from Maren and everyone else in the hall.'You truly are incredible, Rhea. You’re special. You really do deserve to stand by my side as my mate and my Luna.'I managed a bitter smile and faced the truth. 'But I’m not that lucky, Rhea. I can’t accept you as my mate and my Luna.'I sighed and looked up, hoping the Moon Goddess was listening. 'Moon Goddess, forgive me. You must know why I rejected Rhea. Please let her be happy with another mate.'I stayed rooted in the middle of the hall. My body shook as I tried to hold back my raging wolf, who howled in protest at what I’d done. That only made the curse hurt me more. The stronger my wolf’s energy grew, the more violently the curse’s poison reacted.Heat spread through my neck. I wanted to rip off my scarf and coat, to l

—Rhea—I rushed out of the main hall. After leaving the building, I looked back one last time, then ran quickly away from the pack's center.The main road in the center of the Sollene pack was quiet, with only a few people passing by. Most were probably in the hall for the Luna's coronation.I kept running toward the edge of the pack and stopped when I found a quiet, empty spot.I looked around. The grand, tall buildings from the center were gone. Here, only simple houses stood, spaced far apart.I knew this was still a village in the Sollene pack's territory, but it was right on the border. Beyond it were the forest and the free lands.I paused for a moment, thinking this would be the best place to stay while I made plans. Since this area was still part of the Sollene Pack, I could gather information easily without sneaking past the guards. Plus, I knew someone here.I moved on, walking quietly through the night toward the most hidden house. Thick trees surrounded it, making it a per

—Rhea—I went quiet for a moment, thinking about what to do. There really wasn’t any other option. I had to tell Uncle everything, even about my first life.I looked up and met the eyes of the older man who had been through so much. I trusted Uncle to understand and handle it wisely, so I had nothing to hide from him.“Uncle, Callum didn’t reject me because he hates me or doesn’t love me. He did it to protect me.”“Protect you?” Uncle Bram interrupted, curious. “Protect you from what, Rhe?”“Uncle, Callum is cursed. If he accepts me as his true mate, he’s afraid the curse will affect me too. That’s why he rejected me—to keep me away from the curse.”Uncle Bram frowned. “How do you know the Alpha is cursed? Did he tell you himself?”I went quiet, not sure how to explain.“Last night in the main hall, Callum didn’t say anything, Uncle. But in my previous life, Callum told me before we died.”“Oh? What do you mean, Rhe?” Uncle Bram asked, looking confused. Honestly, I was confused too ab
