ALPHA'S REJECTED BRIDE: HIDING HIS BABY CHAPTER 20: WORTH PROTECTING
ROSALINE’S POV:My eyelids fluttered softly, and I noticed that I was in an entirely different room. The bed I laid on was a lot more comfortable than the one allocated to me as well; it was light and soft. It was almost like I was lying on a bunch of fluffy clouds.Where was I? How did I end up here?I tried to sit up but groaned a bit when a sharp sting struck my hand. I hissed as I brought up my hand to see that it was wrapped in a bandage. I looked at it in confusion. What happened to me? That was when I saw him.Damien.He was sitting on a chair opposite me; he had his head bowed and his limbs sprayed out in front of him. His back was a bit arched too; he did not look comfortable at all. My eyebrows furrowed with confusion. Why was he sleeping on a chair and I on this heavenly bed?Something irritable filled my nostrils, and I could only identify it as blood. My eyes traveled downwards to see that the other side of his sheets was covered in blood. Not only that, but I had a change
ALPHA'S REJECTED BRIDE: HIDING HIS BABY CHAPTER 21: THE HEARING
ROSALINE’S POV:I brought out my wrists and watched as the guards cuffed them along with my ankles. I swear they wanted to put one around my neck, but Damien’s growl had them immediately abandoning that idea. They came to get me from his room, and we were both changed now. Damien came to stand before me, taking my face in his hands and looking at me with so much intensity that my knees were growing weak."Everything is going to be alright, I promise." He said, and despite the pounding in my chest, I felt comfort in his words. I gave him a single nod before he took a step away from me. He signalled for the guards to take me away. He met my eyes one last time and said, "I will be there soon. I need to do something quickly."His statement had my eyebrows creasing, and worry was washing over me like a tsunami. "Where are you going?" I asked him, not bothering to hide the fear in my voice. I hated how I was depending on him for protection, but what choice did I have? He met my eyes an
ALPHA'S REJECTED BRIDE: HIDING HIS BABY CHAPTER 22: AN ALPHA’S SHAME
ROSALINE’S POV:I never thought I would be so happy to hear that voice again. I have never felt so much relief before in my life. Honestly, I could cry right about now. I felt my chains come undone, and I was lifted off the guillotine. I was wrapped in a familiar pair of muscular arms, and Damien’s heavenly scent filled my nostrils. I could not help but bury my face into his chest and the tears that spilt out of my eyes."What is the meaning of this insult, Damien? Have you completely lost your mind? You are getting in the way of justice!" The alpha king snapped, and I could hear him getting nearer and nearer. Damien’s arms tightened around me protectively."Justice? This is anything but justice! You were just about to take the life of an innocent woman!" Damien roared; his voice echoed in the wind, and the people began to whisper among themselves."Innocent? All arrows point to her as the culprit. You can’t make such judgments based on your feelings, my boy." The alpha shot back, a
ALPHA'S REJECTED BRIDE: HIDING HIS BABY CHAPTER 23: ARIANA’S LIFE
ROSALINE’S POV:I wrapped my face, neck, and head with one of my midnight black scarves as I made my way out the kitchen door. I kept my eyes wide and alert as I looked in every direction before sprinting deep into the courtyard. I would occasionally hide behind trees when I caught sight of a guard coming.I remember seeing a tree that was oddly close to the fence. I could use it to go over the fence and get out of here. It was almost impossible to see in the dark, but when I found the tree, I felt a sense of relief. I made sure to search my surroundings before climbing the thick chunk of wood; luckily, it was just about the same height as the fence.I said a silent prayer before jumping off the tree and landing at the very tip of the fence. My arms flailed in all directions as I tried to regain my balance. When I did, I released a sigh of relief. There was a small shrub directly beneath me, and I felt my heart pound widely against my chest. I shut my eyes and reminded myself why
ALPHA'S REJECTED BRIDE: HIDING HIS BABY CHAPTER 24: A MADDENNING DISAPPEARANCE
DAMIEN’S POV: Few hours earlier…."Just who the fuck do you think you are?"I rolled my eyes at my father’s words before placing my chin on my fist. My elbow was perched on the table as I watched my old man pace back and forth. We were both in his room with my mother; he wanted to have this meeting where he knew absolutely no one could hear us or interrupt us.I just wanted this to be over so I could get back to Maya. I really was not comfortable leaving her alone for too long. Not because I was scared something would happen to her while I was away, just because I physically could not be away from her for too long.Even if I did not mean to, I always found my feet moving to wherever she was. My body called out to her, and my wolf did as well. It was a weird connection I could not explain, and I did not want to."Are you even listening to me?" My father’s enraged voice interrupted my blissful thoughts, and I wanted to groan. How annoying could this man be?"Huh?" I said, I honestly
ALPHA'S REJECTED BRIDE: HIDING HIS BABY CHAPTER 25: JEALOUSY, RAGE, AND LUST
ROSALINE’S POV:He was a demon.His eyes were two dark pools that swarmed with anger and lust. The way he looked at me had an ache erupting in my middle; it forced me to shut my legs, hoping to get some comfort. His eyes never left mine as he began to undo the buttons on his shirt."Answer me!" he snapped, causing me to snap out of the trance he had placed me under. I blinked rapidly at him as I tried to recall his question. I had no idea how I was going to answer that without making him suspicious or doing some digging.I swallowed the bile that had risen within my throat as I wracked my brain for what to say."I went for a walk," I said, and he snarled at me in response. The anger in his eyes intensified, and I could feel my heart pounding wildly against my chest."Don’t you dare lie to me," he snapped before tossing his shirt aside. My eyes raked up and down his perfect torso, and it was at that moment that I could feel the dryness on my tongue. He climbed up the bed, and my feet b
ALPHA'S REJECTED BRIDE: HIDING HIS BABY CHAPTER 26: BAD HAIR DAY
ROSALINE’S POV:My eyes fluttered open softly as a small yawn escaped my lips. I am greeted with the precious sight of Damien’s sleeping face. His eyelashes were quite long, and I could not help but admire how peaceful he looked when sleeping. All his features were relaxed; there was not a single crease on them, and if I were to be honest, he resembled an angel when asleep.I could feel my wolf purr at the sight of our mate; actually, she was doing more than purring. She was practically jumping around with excitement. It had been years since I felt like this since I felt genuinely at peace.My fingers seemed to have gotten a mind of their own as they hovered above his eyelashes. I let the gentle hairs caress the tips of his fingers before moving down to the bridge of his nose. It was when I got to his lips that I released a gentle gasp as a pair of arms snaked around my waist and pulled me closer.Our bodies were pressed together now, and our faces were barely an inch from each othe
ALPHA'S REJECTED BRIDE: HIDING HIS BABY CHAPTER 27: WHEN A PLAN COMES TOGETHER
DAMIEN’S POV:I will never understand that woman.She is so defiant, and I hate how it annoys me and turns me on at the same time. But this time it was just plain rude and uncalled for. Why was she always making things hard? She was one of the most confusing people I have ever encountered. She would act like she hated me, then we would have one of the best moments of our lives, and then she would go back to hating me again.Who the hell does that?As I stormed through the halls, I felt the small box jingle in my pants, and I took it out. I feel something in my chest when I open the box to reveal the thin gold necklace I had gotten her.When my father pulled us apart, he took me into town to talk to some of the residents and showed me some infrastructure that I was to oversee. I passed a jewellery shop and saw the necklace. She was the first thing that came to mind when I saw it. and I thought it would look good on her. But, as she said, she was not interested.My teeth clench, and I

ALPHA'S REJECTED BRIDE: HIDING HIS BABY CHAPTER 153: CAESAR
ROSALINE’S POV:SEVEN MONTHS LATER:I watched Damien and Ariana’s wolf run around the courtyard with a speed my human eyes could barely keep up with. At this point, I was not sure which of them was faster. They have been doing this every morning for the past six months. Damien had made it their morning to train Ariana himself; he wanted her to become the strongest woman in the pack.And I was scared of that.The speed at which she improved was frightening. At this rate, she would be the strongest wolf in the world by the time she was eighteen.“Damn, she is getting better and better,” Peace said, and my gaze shifted to her. She cradled Light in her arms, and the tender baby yawned. The day Light was born was quite an eventful day for all of us. It was early in the morning, and we were all in the kitchen when her water broke. Ariana was the one who raised an alarm by saying, “Aunt Peace peed herself.”Peace, who was embarrassed, defended herself, but we all knew what was going on. We d
ALPHA'S REJECTED BRIDE: HIDING HIS BABY CHAPTER 152: THE TALK
ROSALINE’S POV:“I do not need therapy.” I frowned at Damien, who gave me a tired look. He drove me down to my supposed therapist’s office, and I considered jumping out, but I had to remember that I was pregnant. Peace sat in the back seat, and I had no idea when she and Damien could be in the same space without growling at each other.“Yes, you do, Rosaline. You should have seen yourself yesterday; you were about to faint over something that wasn’t even there,” Peace said, and I folded my arms above my chest.“Okay, I admit that what happened yesterday was a bit out of character, but I am fine now. Just because I had one panic attack does not mean I need therapy." I defended myself, but neither of them looked like they would be going back on their decision.“It’s not just one; you have had several in the past."“I am not talking to you,” I snapped at Peace, and she reared her head back with surprise.“Rosaline, calm down. Peace is right, you, and since when did you two become best f
ALPHA'S REJECTED BRIDE: HIDING HIS BABY CHAPTER 151: PEACE AND TRUTH
ROSALINE’S POV:“Yeesh, mothers are the worst,” Peace chuckled, and I shook my head with wonder. We were both at a baby store picking up some stuff for the baby. I mean, I know it was still a bit soon, but little by little, Damien and I would be getting some things ready. And we still did not know the gender of the baby, but we were able to get the essentials and some unisex clothes.“Tell me about it; my worst nightmare would be to end up like her sometime in the future,” I said with a huff. I picked up a pair of black baby shoes and inspected them. It was way smaller than my hand, perfect for a newborn baby.“Trust me, you will never be like that. Give yourself some credit; you are one of the best moms I have ever seen. This kid and Ariana are so lucky to have you,” Peace said, and her words warmed my heart. She picked up a pair of pink baby ballet shoes and put them in the cart.“Oh, no, we have to get unisex wear for now; I still do not know the gender of my baby,” I told her, but
ALPHA'S REJECTED BRIDE: HIDING HIS BABY CHAPTER 150: MOTHER DEAREST
ROSALINE’S POV:I am so hungry.I laid on my back on my bed, staring at the ceiling as I wondered how cruel Damien was. How could he just leave me like that to starve?I mean I know I have been eating for the past three hours, but doesn’t he know that it’s for two? He is so mean.Tears began to blur my vision, and my bottom lip trembled. I knew Damien did not love me anymore. It was the only explanation! Maybe because of what happened with Magnus, he is disgusted by me. Yes, that’s it. That’s why he didn’t want to get me the pizza.I really am unbelievable.“Good God, why are you crying now?”My eyes snapped to the door, and I found Damien standing by the doorway with a box that had steam coming out of it. Instantly, my nose picked up the scent, and I sat up quickly.“I thought you weren’t going to get me the pizza,” I said, and he walked over to me, setting the box of pizza in between us. He opened it, and the steam kissed my face. I could not stop the smile from stretching my lips a
ALPHA'S REJECTED BRIDE: HIDING HIS BABY CHAPTER 149: PAST LIVES
ROSALINE’S POV:“Why is the food not ready yet?!” I snapped at Damien, who stirred the pot of pudding as fast as he could. A bead of sweat trickled down his forehead as he whisked, turned, seasoned, diced, and sprinkled as fast as his hands could. Ariana was right by his side, helping in the little way she could, even though she could not quite keep up with his speed. We would have asked one of the maids to prepare it, but for some reason, I really enjoyed foods that were prepared by either Damien or Ariana and Damien was an absolutely horrible cook. So, the taste had nothing to do with my favouritism, just the sentiment. A part of me was grateful that Ariana was helping him out, so at least it would not taste like complete shit. Jake was here as well. But unlike the other two, he was completely lost and only helped with the dishes.“It’s coming; it’s coming. Just a few more minutes,” Damien said in haste.“Hurry up, I am so hungry,” I whined, picking up some pieces of carrot that he
ALPHA'S REJECTED BRIDE: HIDING HIS BABY CHAPTER 148: AN ALPHA’S PEACE
DAMIEN’S POV:FEW HOURS EARLIER:She was still fast asleep. I slipped my arms away from her, careful not to wake her up. Gently, I got off the bed and exhaled. I do not know how long I stood above the bed staring at her, but I did not care. Somehow, the longer I stared at her, the angrier I got. Not because she now carried a child that was not mine, but because I let that bastard put that child in her in the first place.I need some fresh air.I left the room quietly and headed down to our gym. The hallway was still silent; I passed a few guards and even got some sleep. Figured. Everyone was quite tired; now that the enemy was eliminated, everyone was taking that break they had so long deserved.Except Rosaline.It’s like, no matter how hard I try to take her pain away, a new one starts.I took off my shirt and tossed it aside. I started on the punching bag and poured out every ounce of my frustration on it. All my anger, all my sadness, all my guilt, I threw into my punches. After a
ALPHA'S REJECTED BRIDE: HIDING HIS BABY CHAPTER 147: UNCONDITIONAL LOVE
ROSALINE’S POV: I could not stop screaming.Somehow, my body, which had been a practical vegetable for the past month, was full of life and rage. I threw and tossed everything in sight while I screamed out my lungs. I could hear people telling me to calm down, but I could not hear them. I could not hear anything; I did not want to.It was all coming back to me. that night. Magnus. His touch. Everything.“NO!” I grabbed a plate and shattered it against the wall. The shards flew across the air, and I think a few pierced me in the process, but I did not care. A pair of arms came up from behind me and swept me off my feet. I immediately recognized them as Damien’s and began to sob. “It’s not fair! No!"“Just calm down, baby. Please, just relax; you are hurting yourself,” he whispered, and I pinched my eyes shut. Tears fell helplessly down my face, and my body began to tremble. Damon held me and lifted me back to the bed.“I thought you would be happier, Luna. I am sure Princess Ariana wi
ALPHA'S REJECTED BRIDE: HIDING HIS BABY CHAPTER 146: THE AFTERMATH
DAMIEN’S POV:It has been a month since I got Rosaline back and killed the bastards responsible. Well, technically, one of them was a coward and killed himself instead, but it was the same thing to me anyway.For the past month, Rosaline has been bedridden, but unlike me, she is not as fussy and agitated. I mean, at times she preferred to do things by herself, but you cannot compare the two of us when we are bedridden. It irks me down to my very soul that I cannot do so much as do the necessities of life.Anyway, after the first three days, she pretty much accepted her condition and let us help her around. “What other choice do I have? If I continue to struggle, then I might only make things worse for myself,” she had said, and I wonder what would have happened if I had said the same thing all those months ago when I was in her condition.I waited outside the room for Peace to finish dressing her up so I could take her downstairs for breakfast. I would have preferred if she stayed in
ALPHA'S REJECTED BRIDE: HIDING HIS BABY CHAPTER 145: IT’S NOT OVER
ROSALINE’S POV:Anger.That was the only thing in my heart. My heart once held so much fear, but now it is replaced with nothing but rage.Magnus. That demon. That devil.I cannot say that I remember much of what happened during our time in bed, but I did not want to. All I remember was screaming my lungs out until I passed out. But now I am left with one question that I most probably will never get an answer to.What did he do to me?When I managed to pull myself together and stay conscious for just a few seconds, I thought I was flying. My body was high up in the air, and I had no idea where the hell I was. But he was right beside me; that was the only thing I knew. He had his disgusting hands around my throat, and I wanted nothing more than to rip it off. I did not know where that strength came from. I was pretty sure that I could not move at all just a few moments ago. But something overcame me when I saw him. I knew that he was the one holding me and keeping me over the edge, an
