Burned By My Ex, Reborn As His King's Mate 소설 & 이야기

Reborn. She might send me away, but the past would not so readily be dismissed. I snarled beneath my breath as I walked through the darkness. The power that had summoned me back burned through my veins, but I was the better for it. No longer the man that she had rejected. No longer the idiot who'd lost his mate to such a creep as Ryan. Ryan. Even saying his name ignited a flame of anger. The Alpha King had left me with nothing—my future, my throne, my Hailey. But now? Now he was nowhere to be found, vanished into thin air, and Hailey was alone. Unprotected.

“Do you remember the last time we met? No… perhaps you don’t. But I do. You thought you killed me. And in a way, you did—you destroyed my former vessel. But the darkness reclaimed me, drew me back to the depths where I could heal… and be reborn.” His grin widened, almost feral. “Back then, I underestimated you. I was young, arrogant, drunk on the power the gods had granted me. I saw only my strength, not the true prize that should have been mine all along—claiming you as my mate, and through you, seizing the power that should have belonged to me.”

“Why? Why are you doing this? Why take everything from me—my mate, my pack—?” “A dead woman doesn’t need answers.” She had turned away, walking leisurely as if she had all the time in the world. A tear had slipped down my cheek as my life drained away. *This isn’t fair. If I had another chance, I’d do everything differently.* And then— I had woken up. Back in my bedroom. By the will of the Moon Goddess, I had been reborn. And now, as Cliff stood before me, justifying his betrayal, I realized the truth—

“They leave it behind. Like it means nothing. Like everything they were just… peels away. Gone.” “You’re not making sense,” I whispered. He looked up at me. “A man can be reborn, Selena. A king—can be reborn. But only if the old version dies first.” His fingers twisted the napkin like he was wringing out a throat He took a bite of steak. Bloody. Raw. Chewed slow. “And you,” he said with his mouth full, “you brought evil into my house. You poisoned me my staffs. Now they are after me”

I just lay there, shaking and crying for the thought of what I had just went through so horrifying I was traumatized. How was the king still standing? It had been his pain, how had he still been holding up firmly as if he had not been feeling anything. I hoped I had lessened the burn from him, I hoped he could no longer feel the pain too. Standing up from there had me fall back down, the smell of burned flesh clogging the air and making it hard to even breathe. I had to see him, I had to see if he was okay. I had to see the king, my mate. I stumbled up, leaning on the wall and painting it black with my body pulled up. My eyes fell on the grounds before the castle.

What had happened to reincarnation and on his watch? Was there someone else, someone who had evaporated from his life for longer than he could remember, someone who wanted to break his heart in response to the choices he'd made? Agent had all the earmarks of a puppet who didn't know he was a puppet. This had his vengeful ex-lover, Tricksy, written all over it. Part of King was all game on, maybe I can win you back! The other half of him was too tired and had paid the price enough for his choices for one million lifetimes.

However, Christopher stopped her right after she took a few steps. He gripped her arms and looked at her through snot and tears. He said in immense remorse, "Kisa, I must've been possessed back then. I actually divorced your mother and married that b*tch. Kisa, I wronged your mother! I really regret it, Kisa!" Kisa peered at him icily, "Will your regret bring my mother back to life?"

I never intended for us too this far, but we have too, I have already lost my mate once and I will not lose you again, all I ever wanted for us to have a family but I guess things don’t turn out the way you planned’ he signed. I couldn’t agree more, this, this was not how I had planned my stay, and to find out my mate is none other than the king. ‘you can forget the idea of even rejecting me because I have already cast a spell on you from doing so. All you can do now is to learn to love me the same way I do’

"You have no idea who I am, Kathrine, what I'm capable of doing for my mate…" Hearing him call me his mate made me arch my brows, and it also made me wonder why he was so happy about the fact that I was his mate. Was he really that desperate for a mate? "I'm not your mate, I'm going to accept your rejection, please reject me." I begged letting my tears fall free from my eyes. I was broken beyond repair, and a new mate was the last thing I needed at the moment to heal.

She took my hand. "Gianna, if you reject me, you are never going to find another mate, never again; no man would want to love a weak woman like you." Gianna chuckled as she placed a hand on my chest. "I already found another mate; Alpha Axel is my second chance mate." She stared into my eyes pleadingly. I was so impressed with how smoothly she lied; it sounded so true that I would have believed her if I were Alpha Nathan.
