Once Rejected Novels & Stories

That is where my loyalty lies now, and it is unshakable. Later that same day, Fabi met Noah again. This time, there was no hesitation, no polite small talk, and no pretense of negotiation. He had not come to discuss terms he had come to deliver a final, irrevocable answer. He stood before Noah, his posture straight and imposing, his gaze steady and unyielding. “Mr. Miller,” Fabi began, his voice low, clear, and brutally direct, leaving no room for hope. “I am here to tell you formally I reject your offer. The Grimes Corporation will not partner with you. Furthermore, Calex Sever has also made his decision—he refuses to work with you in any capacity, now or in the future.”

"It's fine. You don't have to explain yourself. I won't be against it if you want to date John. He's a single guy, after all," Samuel pressed, clearly amused, but John was silent, observing Tasha's reaction. She had rejected him even before he had the gut to ask her out.

Without her acceptance of him, the ritual was incomplete and the bond still remained. Guess, she did not know about the whole process of rejection. But who cares? Finally, it proved to be for his own good. Bond is weak but is not broken between them until she accepts his rejection and he will make sure that this never happens. It is not too late. He will not let her go.

I scowled at her. "No! You're disgusting!" I spat back angrily. I should reject her. I don't want her to be my mate. I'm going to marry Liza anyway, for the union of our packs. This is for the pack's future. I should think first about what is better for the pack than for myself. Dang, but why does it hurt to reject her? The looks she gave me were full of pain and hatred. But I have to do this. "I, Alpha Azrael Shepherd, reject you, Alexandria Gregory as my mate," I said coldly, then turned my back towards the packhouse. I have said it and it's already done. I stopped dead in my tracks when she yelled at my back.

He sure was not happy with my intrusion. “I am giving you the control. Now say that you accept her damn rejection and we wouldn’t have to put up with this bullshit.” He said and gave me the control back. I glared at the woman who was supposed to be my other half with hate and utter disgust. “I, David Barton, accept your rejection.” I practically spat those words out and I felt an unwanted burden being lifted off me. I turned around and walked away from them. They can be with each other if they please. I wonder what they will be doing when Cade finds his mate. I scoffed. It was not of my concern. I almost reached my room when I received a mind link.

I tried to stop him, but he grabbed my arms forcefully. "I reject you as my mate, Ophelia, and I do not want to have anything to do with you anymore. Now, accept the fucking rejection!" I was in a puddle of tears, as he spoke, a crushing pain in my chest as I tried to breathe. I knew I had lost him. I knew there was no going back on this. "I, Ophelia Stone, of the..Lone Wolves Pack, accept your rejection." His shoulders slumped for a bit. I could not register his actions, but I felt his hand release mine in an instant, causing me to lose balance.

“Never! We'll never render any form of help whatsoever to them.” “Then what is the reason you're hell bent on not helping the Halo clan? Tell me your reasons, then maybe just maybe I'll understand.” “I have nothing else to say. Can we please not argue about this? I have my reasons and I don't want us to discuss this ever again.” Malakai now fuming with rage as Hireath has refused to give in to his pleas or tell him the reason for her abject refusal.

Derick turned to me and asked, "What do you say, Sophia? Will you join our pack?" Lucas and the rest of the pack members were stunned by Derick's determine suggestion. They couldn't believe that their Alpha was willing to accept someone who was banished from her pack, let alone someone who had been labeled a "rejected mate". Jessica couldn't hide her disapproval as she rolled her eyes and muttered under her breath. I looked at Derick, trying to read his expression, but he was unreadable. He simply stood there, waiting for my answer. I took a deep breath and spoke up, "Are you sure about this, Derick? I don't want to cause any trouble for your pack."

“We reached out to ten designs from Nexus in total. Five outrightly rejected our offer, while three accepted. The other two are yet to get back to us.” I wasn't pleased that they rejected my offer. Since the offer was mouth-watering, I had expected that they would jump at it. “Why did they reject it? Were they not satisfied with the money?” I asked. “I'm not quite sure.” I doubted that it was because they were being loyal to their company. “I'll get back to you on the response of the other two, probably at the end of today,” Jane said, then she bowed slightly in respect before stepping out of the office.

No one answered immediately. Not Arthur. Not Gabriel. Not Adrian. Not even the man in black. That silence was an answer in itself. Then Adrian spoke quietly. “You don’t say no.” Ama looked up weakly. “What does that mean?” Adrian’s expression tightened. “It means the system doesn’t interpret refusal as final.” A pause. “It interprets it as incomplete understanding.” Gabriel snapped, “That’s not consent!” Adrian didn’t argue. Because he agreed. Arthur stepped forward suddenly.
