“How long have we been mates?” Aidan barked. “Four weeks,” I cried, tears rolling down my face and neck. “And how many times were we intimate, Tara?” My lungs tightened in my chest as I whispered. “Once.” “And we were being safe, so why do you think this lie would stick?” Venom dripped from his next words. “Get out of my life because the next time you show up, I will kill you.” ***** It wasn’t exactly a one-night stand, but the possibility of a pregnancy was almost non-existent even though he was my mate. When I mustered the courage to break the news to Aidan Graham, the father, he denied me. He severed our bond and plotted my death, and my only option was to run. Nine years later, my daughter walks into my office with a man, and the scent I recognize all too well fills my lungs. She says. “Mommy! I found you this handsome man!” The match my baby girl just made for me…is to my ex Alpha mate. I have been broken in the past, so how do I make this work for my daughter? Can I still try even when Aidan ropes us into a web of secrets, deceit, and brings me to a past I wished to bury forever? The plot twists are bound to make you ask… “Wait…What. The. Heck??” So, read on!!

Alpha Aidan's Rejection 13: Please Stay Away
TARAMy mind took a trip down memory lane to eight years ago, right after I put to bed. I was so scared, thinking that Aidan found us, or worse, Kayla, or Aidan’s father.Shortly after I was able to return to the pack, Alpha Collin showed up at the house to congratulate me, and when I brought up the topic, as well as my concerns about being found by the people who caused me to leave Pack Attica, my previous pack, Collin proceeded to confirm that he was the one who cleared my bills.It didn’t take a mathematician to put it together that Collin was into me, but I couldn’t settle for a relationship after what I’d been through. I also couldn’t ignore the fact that I didn’t see him that way, mostly because my heart belonged to another, even after such betrayal.Aidan was, after all, my mate. And even though our bond was severed, a heart was still a heart.Collin was kind to me and patient, and we later finally came to a conclusion to put a label on our relationship.The dynamic of our rela

TARA We were having homemade beef dip as an early dinner, and as I cooked in the kitchen, Jenna and Nadia played a game of cards on the dining table.“So, not only did he come in to make your emotionally starved feathers all ruffled up,” Jenna spoke with a cackle, “but he also stood up for you to a rude customer, in front of a crowd, might I add.”I rolled my eyes as I brought out plates for us to eat. “It wasn’t a big deal, madam,” I said to her, trying to ignore the feelings that were battling my mind.Jenna rambled on as if I didn’t just speak. “And then he gave you white roses?” She dropped her jaw dramatically, causing me to laugh.“I got some flowers too,” Nadia replied, kicking her feet together like it was prom night.“Nadia got flowers too!” Jenna repeated, adding special throat noises for dramatics. I just shook my head, refusing ti engage in this.As for Nadia, she was super excited about the flowers today, and it took minutes of pleading to get her to put them down after

AIDANEven after the douchebag, Collin left and was nowhere to be seen, Nadia still feared for her safety. She was still tense, and her large hazel eyes welled up with unshed tears.All I wanted was for that feeling to go away and never return.I wanted to know everything about Tara’s and Nadia’s relationship with Collin, but I didn’t know if Tara would be okay with me pressing Nadia for answers, so I decided to keep it simple.Taking her cold hands into mine, I squatted to her level and smiled at her. “Hey, pretty, don’t be scared. He’s gone now, and he won’t be able to harm you on my watch,” I said to Nadia.It seemed like she didn’t believe me, but she nodded anyway. “You’ll stay and protect me?” She asked with glistening eyes.I nodded. There was nothing I wanted more than that. “Yes, Nadia. Anyone who tries to get to you will have to go through me first, and I promise you that they won’t be able to do so.”The well of tears cleared from her eyes as a small smile lifted her face,
Last Updated : 2024-12-09Alpha Aidan's Rejection 10: Respect Or Fear?
AIDANI knew without a doubt that Tara didn’t want me around her diner, but I couldn’t bring myself to leave.There were a million unanswered questions and an even greater number of impossible things that surrounded the events between us. There were explanations that I just couldn’t wrap my head around, but I still couldn’t dare leave her side. Not when I was hung up on her scent like an addict.I lingered around the premises of diner for goddess knows how long, making sure she didn’t see me of course, watching her attend to her customers with a glint in her mesmerizing eyes. I watched her laugh freely with the people around her, and all I could feel was the hurt from eight years ago.The hurt I felt when we parted ways. The betrayal I felt from seeing pictures of Tara hugging and kissing another man who wasn’t me.She denied it all, and she said she was having our child, and I didn’t believe her. Now, eight years later, all it took was one look at Nadia to know that she was my flesh

TARAStaring at the lady who practically called me a whore in front of a room full of customers, and most especially, Aidan Graham, many thoughts raced through my mind.This wasn’t the first time that someone had been rude to me because they somehow thought that they were better than me since I had a child at such a young age, so I wasn’t too bothered.Aidan, on the other hand, looked like he was ready to commit first-degree m*rder within the next few seconds if caution wasn’t taken. His eyes burned like molten lava in the strange lady’s direction, so I quickly thought of a way to end the scene before it escalated.Like I said earlier, I didn’t want any bad dust for my business. So I spoke. “I’m sorry, ma’am, but I don’t understand what you mean. This is a place of business, and we have customers who would appreciate not being…”“I’ll make you understand,” the petite lady in the blonde wavy hair cut me off, gritting her teeth so hard, and pointing a disgusted look at me.Now, I was b
Last Updated : 2024-12-08Alpha Aidan's Rejection 08: Opening Day
TARAWith my newly made resolution about my standing with Aidan, I found it easier to get out of my house to my diner the next day for opening. It was the first day of the week-long Multipack Moon Meet, and Vermont pack was filled to its brim.I hoped that the crowds and business of the day would occupy my mind enough to not let it wander in the direction of a certain hot six-foot-four alpha, and luckily for me, it did.“Nadia would be occupied till three PM, so that should give us enough time to sell most of these out,” I said to Jenna, grinning proudly from ear to ear. We were halfway there already.As the guests settled in and took in the ceremonial decorations surrounding the pack, it led them straight to my diner just around the corner, as I had planned. The traffic was enough to get me, Jenna, and my single employee busy as bees from the whole of the morning till afternoon.The tables inside were occupied by guests and a few pack members that I could recognize, and so were the f

TARA“Bath time, honey,” I said softly to Nadia, about half an hour after dinner.As expected, her grumbles came just as quickly. “Can we watch Crab’s Adventures instead? Only for a few minutes? Please?” She asked, batting her eyelashes to make herself look more adorable.She almost got me because she looked so charming with her long lashes and hazel eyes, just like Aidan’s, but something motherhood taught me these past years was patience, as well as discipline, so I responded.“Not if you plan on skipping school tomorrow.”Nadia’s eyes shot wide open in excitement. “I can do that?”“Yeah, sure,” I shrugged. “You’re a big girl. You’ll just have to stay at home and make sure no bad guys get in while I’m out. You’ll also have to cook and clean up after yourself until I get back from work.” I feigned indifference. “And did I mention no friends? Because all of them would be at school together, and you’d be stuck here.”The wheels instantly turned in her small eyes, and she shook her head

AIDANComing to Vermont Pack against my will, I had expected bloodshed to follow. This pack was an enemy of mine. Cohabiting was never an option, but I’d been receiving threatening notes for the past week, and this pack held the key to uncovering what it was all about, so I was here.I couldn’t wait to find out and maim whoever was toying with me, and all that seemed appealing until I set my eyes on her. On them.At first, I thought the resemblance to the little girl was nothing more than a coincidence, but then she told me her name, and she wouldn’t stop talking about her mother who sounded like the woman who still held the key to my heart after all these years.Pieces started forming in my head, but I pushed them to the side because it was impossible that after all this time, Tara was still alive and here. Those were my thoughts, but I also couldn’t ignore the familiarity I felt with this place, and the intense need to protect the little child. Call it intuition, but it felt like

TARA Eight Years Later… Even before she voiced her question, I already connected the dots from the pride swirling in her eyes. “So how do you feel?” Jenna asked, carrying way too many labeled boxes on one hand, and easily maneuvering me in the middle of my new diner. “Your dreams are finally coming together. Aren’t you proud?” I rose to full height, abandoning the blue roses I was putting together for the front door, and stared at Jenna for a minute. It only took a second for my answer to take form. Proud would be too much of an understatement. I was freaking ecstatic. I was beyond grateful for the last eight years plus of my life because if anyone had told me this would be my standing in Vermont pack, the place I found myself after everything, I would have hissed in their faces. “Of course I’m proud, Jenna,” I said to my close friend and companion. After Nadia’s birth, Jenna was one of the few people who took me as their responsibility. I was suspicious of her at first,

01: Dead To Me
TARA“Aidan, love, I-I wasn’t sure… so I went to see the pack doctor. I’m two weeks gone,” I said my voice barely above a whisper. “I’m pregnant.”My heartbeat thrashed in my ears as I finally found the courage to tell him. I was beyond terrified, but I was sure that Aidan and I would go through this together. After all, he was the Alpha of Pack Attica.Aidan looked up from his phone, and the color completely drained from his face. “No, you’re not.”My mouth fell open. What?“I-I am,” I said, fumbling through my pocket for the picture the doctor gave me of the baby. “I’m preg-”“What the heck, Tara! Stop saying that. You’re not pregnant for gods sake! Are you that pathetic to lie with something as dire as this?”I flinched at his tone. Aidan was never mean to me. He never raised his voice or used foul language at me.“Why would I lie? I swear by the moon, it’s yours,” I pleaded, tears filling the back of my eyelids, blurring my vision.With fists clenched and veins bulging from every
