Unbound By Choice Rejecting The Obsidian Alpha Novels & Stories

“You’ve always hated me. It didn't start with what happened to mom. You’re here feeding me this half-baked bullshit and thinking it's enough to make me break. You don't even realize you're contradicting yourself. You said moments ago that he was about to kill me. If he doesn't hate me then—” “Mason waited for me to knock him out” he simply replies, catching me off guard in an instant. “He knew I was standing right there, but he chose to let me have the final decision before he went through with anything” he turns. “THIS is my final decision. I will not be relinquishing the title of Alpha. Not to you. Not to Mason. Not to anyone…” he heads for the door, and it clicks open before he reaches, w

Demanding completion or collapse. I read the last line twice. If the Alpha fails to claim the bond within forty days the biological strain transfers primarily to the human mate. Failure to resolve the bond may result in permanent damage. I closed the book slowly and the room felt very quiet. Fourteen days already gone. Twenty six left. I leaned back against the wall beside the bed and stared at the ceiling. Cade had not claimed the bond. He had not even mentioned the timeline. Either he believed I already knew. Or he was avoiding it.

*Not yet,* Rose replied. “What do you want?” Rose asked. “To give you a choice,” the Alpha said. “Dissolve Stone Hollow. Hand over your records. Submit to evaluation.” “And if I refuse?” He shrugged. “Then this becomes routine.” The words settled like ash. Rose took one step forward. “You’re afraid,” she said calmly. The Alpha’s eyes flickered. “You wouldn’t be here if you weren’t,” she continued. “You wouldn’t need spectacle.” He tilted his head. “Careful. Defiance invites consequence.”

Any alliance-member pack asked to adjudicate would look at the parties involved and make the same determination in under an hour. Gareth Selwyn knew all of this. Caelum had known he knew it before he walked into the room. "The eastern pass terms," Gareth said finally. "Still on the table." "My alliance offer regarding Marcy—" "Off the table." Caelum said it without shifting his expression. "That was always going to be my answer. The Omega in your attic is unrelated to that decision." A lie, technically. But not one Gareth could disprove.

"They kept you contained until you came of age. Then you slipped their net. Now the Obsidian Ring steps in with muscle and dark rituals to force the Spark awake on their terms. They don't care if it kills you in the process." I spun on my heel, staring into the trees like enemies might burst out any second. The night air carried distant howls that raised the hairs on my neck. "This is insane. I bleed and Alphas drop like flies? What about good Alphas? Ones who protect their people? Does it pick sides or just destroy?"

The spell holding the vision together collapses with her. Relief spreads through my chest when the looping memory disappears. Watching my wolf kill that girl again and again was unbearable. But that relief is the only thing that feels better. “We’ll see you when the bonds are broken,” the Alpha says before turning away. His pack begins to leave with him. Damian almost goes after them. His body shifts forward with clear intent. A hand reaches out and grabs his arm. My touch as an Omega barely steadies him. Everything inside me feels unbalanced. Calm is hard to hold onto when life is being ripped apart piece by piece.

Choices will always bring consequences. He waits patiently his eyes never once drifting from mine. He knows my choice but he wants me to say it out loud. "I withdraw my rights as Alpha." I cannot breathe. My heart clenches achingly the spines around them pushing deeper to pierce through flesh. I have made the sensible decision I can afford to at this moment. My hands are tied what else could I do than sacrifice myself, my title and everything I have laboured for all for the sake of my pack. They are my responsibility.

Elosie said. “Elosie no, no please don’t do this, I made a mistake I’m sorry please,” Alex pleaded with tears in his eyes. Elosie shook her head. No, she had to do this. “I, Elosie Blackwell rejects you alpha Alex of moonlight pack.” Elosie said with tears in her eyes Pain hit the both of them in their hearts. “Elosie no,” Alex said now crying. “I cannot reject you, I cannot do it,” he said.

I never wanted to be bothered with the drama. Now, I have more drama than I know what to do with. I have an omega who has just turned into more than my breeder. She’s my fucking fated mate. I can’t get rid of her as I originally planned. I’m not sure I can reject her, but the thought of rejection makes Obsidian upset. I’m not sure rejection is a thing, and if it is, I’m not sure what the consequences are. Knowing the moon goddess's rejection would come with far worse consequences than simply keeping my fated mate.

the Daredevil tried to console himself. "You are the one without a choice, Alpha Jones. First choice, you get absorbed by me, second choice, you get absorbed by me" she shook her head pitifully. "How do you want it, do you want him to die before getting absorbed or both of you to get absorbed together?" she asked.
