Awakening the Rejected Queen Chapter 328: Witch Blood Babies
Eden’s POVAstrid was right, Beta Brighton had been angry at first.“WHAT?” he’d snapped at Astrid, his eyes wide. “You TOLD her? Astrid, you promised you’d NEVER tell.”Astrid and I had gone straight from the lake to find Beta Brighton. I didn’t know what was wrong with my baby but I didn’t want to take any chances. I wasn’t even sure it WAS witch blood, but everything seemed to be pointing that way. So…if Beta Brighton knew anything about witch blood in babies, well…I had to find out everything I could.Beta Brighton had been with the others in the dining hall. They all looked so relaxed and happy, for a moment, I’d thought twice about disturbing them. We’d all been through so much, and we still had a lot to go through. But time was of the essence.Beta Brighton had followed us into Zane’s private study. That’s where we were now.“Calm down,” Astrid warned him. “You’ll understand once we explain.”He looked from me to Astrid. “You better have a REALLY good explanation,” he said, poi
Awakening the Rejected Queen Chapter 329: Her Witch is Strong
Eden’s POVI clasped my hand over my mouth.What?No.I began to shake. The room became blurry. I had to get out of there. I was dizzy and my heart was racing.“Eden,” Astrid reached for me.“I could be wrong,” Beta Brighton’s voice trailed off.He wasn’t wrong. He was right.He knew all about witches. About tainted blood. About babies in the womb.This is what had happened to his sister. Her witch had risen in the womb. It had defeated the werewolf. It had won.I didn’t need any proof. I didn’t need my grandfather to confirm this. I already knew. Deep down, I knew the baby had witch blood. I knew that I had witch blood.This had happened to me, too. My war between wolf and witch had happened in the womb. My wolf had won, just like Beta Brighton’s. But I’d been born a wolf. True, it had taken a long time for Zara to awaken. But there had never been any trace of witch in me.Because my witch died while I was still in the womb.I lurched for the door. My knees were shaky.“Eden, stop. M
Awakening the Rejected Queen Chapter 330: Inside the Maze
Eden’s POVI knew I was getting desperately lost inside the maze, but I didn’t care. I just kept running. My lungs burned from the exertion. Somewhere, Astrid was also in the maze, trying to find me. She’d get lost too. But again, I didn’t care.My face was wet with tears. I couldn’t reconcile the fact that my baby had witch blood. And I certainly couldn’t accept the fact that I’d given it to her.I was going to lose everything. My beloved Silvermist pack. My friends. And worst of all, my mate and love, Zane.If my baby was born a witch, which I was pretty sure she would be, I couldn’t stay here in werewolf society. Giving my baby away wasn’t an option. My breaths were coming in jagged gasps. If I didn’t slow down, I’d pass out.I veered left. The green walls were tall all around me. The maze was huge. So huge, that people could get lost in it for hours. That’s exactly what I planned to do. I wanted to be lost. I wanted to be alone. I didn’t want to face anyone. Not now. Not until the
Awakening the Rejected Queen Chapter 331: To Live a Lie?
Eden’s POVAstrid and I awoke the next morning with the sunrise. My neck was stiff from sleeping on the ground and our clothes were damp from morning dew. My eyes were still puffy from crying. I sat up, hoping for a moment that it had all been a horrible dream. Maybe I had imagined it all – my conversation with Beta Brighton and his information about his sister and witches. The strange heat. The flashes of blue light. ‘Her witch is rising’…The field of wild flowers and the arrow in my back. But as the tall walls of the hedge maze came into view, I knew in my heart that none of it had been a dream. My baby had witch blood. And her witch was strong. Astrid was still fast asleep. She looked peaceful as the morning sun shone on her iron hooks. She had held me until I cried myself to sleep. She felt my pain. We were close, like sisters. She didn’t even need to say anything. I knew she understood. I picked at the grass, my mind swirling with hard realizations. If my baby was born a
Awakening the Rejected Queen Chapter 332: Zara Awakens
Eden’s POVWhat? I wasn’t expecting that. Her wolf was rising too? My baby? Along with her witch? What did that mean? Zara shook herself, her white fur rippling. Then she stretched. She’d been asleep for awhile and was still feeling a bit groggy from the effects of the potion. I waited patiently for her to continue. I knew the baby’s witch had been rising. But apparently her wolf was too?“They’re both strong, Eden,” Zara said. “Her witch and her wolf. They are rising together. Have you felt her witch?”I nodded. I told Zara about the warm sensation and the blue flashes of light. Then I told her about the field of wild flowers. I was confused by the field of flowers. It felt too real to be a dream. Zara listened intently, still standing watch over my baby. “Yes. That’s her magic, the warmth and the blue light. Her witch must be very strong for you to feel it like that. The field of flowers…though, that’s something else. That sounds like a vision. Perhaps she has the gift of sight?
Awakening the Rejected Queen Chapter 333: Where is Alpha Miles?
Eden’s POVAdrian looked wrecked. He wrung his hands and averted his eyes. “What?” I asked. “What do you mean they captured him?”It wasn’t possible. MY grandfather was out helping other packs. That’s why no one had been able to mindlink him. Because he was busy. Because…“It must have happened during the attack on Silvermist,” Beta Brighton said sadly. “Did no one see it?” I asked. This didn’t make any sense. “Surely someone would have seen my grandfather get captured!”“I wasn’t there,” Beta Brighton replied. “It was a surprise attack, Eden. And they were very, very fast. They came in and went out within minutes. They didn’t even kill very many people. It seemed like it was more of a warning. Most of the pack members were able to escape. But I guess…well…I guess they captured a few.”“How do you know? How do you know he was captured if no one saw?”They were wrong. They had to be. They were just jumping to conclusions. If no one saw then…“Someone did see,” Beta Brighton told me t
Awakening the Rejected Queen Chapter 334: The Crow Up Close
Eden’s POVMy jaw dropped open. The crow continued to circle high above. Caw. Caw. It screeched at us in a frantic, frenzied way. “Did you just say…sister?” I whispered back to Beta Brighton. Unlike the rest of us, he was looking up at the crow with admiration. Crows have never been my favorite bird. They’re scavengers and they’re smart. A group of crows is called a ‘murder’. I always found that disturbing. But Beta Brighton gripped my arm. “Please,” he said under his breath. “It’s within aim,” Storm said, his bow aimed at the crow. He drew back the arrow. “No,” I said quickly. “Why not?” Adrian asked, eying me skeptical. “It’s annoying. Let him shoot it.”“It’s a harmless bird,” I sighed, trying to sound innocent. “Don’t waste an arrow. I’m sure it will leave soon.”But the crow continued to circle. Beta Brighton’s eyes never left it for a second. Astrid watched Beta Brighton watching the bird. Then her eyes caught mine. She saw the look I tossed her and her face flooded with
Awakening the Rejected Queen Chapter 335: The Pendant
Eden’s POV“Brinsle?” I repeated. She nodded. I shook her hand, careful to meet her gaze. “That’s a lovely name,” I said. She then shook Astrid’s hand.“Thank you,” she replied demurely. “But I have to confess, I didn't expect my brother to bring you along. I’ve never met up with him like this. I thought I was…a secret.” Her eyes flashed to her brother.He looked sympathetically at her. “You know I hate that I can’t talk about you,” he said, his voice low. “But if people knew…it’s just easier this way, Brinsle. It’s easier for you, too. Werewolves and witches don’t mix well. I could be exiled. You too.”“We don’t exile,” Brinsle snapped, raising her chin. “We punish. Or we kill.”“Right,” he replied. “But in any case, you can trust these two. Astrid is our Gamma. I’ve known her for a long time. She’s one of the most loyal people I’ve ever met. And Eden here…well…you know who she is.” His smile faltered at the mention of my name.“Eden.” It was Zara. She was pacing, on high alert. She
