I woke up enveloped in the warmth of arms wrapped around me. Elias’ scent surrounded me and I felt a peace inside me that I hadn’t felt in a really long time. If ever at all. I laid there, not wanting to break the spell. And I know that there was some small part in me that wanted to hold on to this feeling like my life depended on it. And yet there was a bigger part that was scared, scared of allowing myself to be taken in, to trust someone else fully with that broken part of me. To see beyond the shield and see how fucked up I really was. Because what if they saw that and they rejected me? What if they decided that there were too many pieces to fix and what if after showing them the truth in what I was they left me there, exposed with my own feelings? And no way to know how to build my wall again.
Or worse, what if they stayed? What if they were really in for the long haul? They come armed with emotional superglue and dili
Aisling ElizabethThank you all for being so understanding about my absence. I am fully aware that you are paying to read this book and appreciate each and every one of you and would never want to leave you hanging. I am a little later than my original return date as things are still complicated but I am trying to get back into the writing. I am aiming for daily updates again but it might take a bit to get up there. I appreciate your patience and will get new chapters up as quickly as possible. Thank you once again

Beyond Beta's Rejection Update on book progress
Hello my lovely readers. First off an apology, I never intended to take such a long break from this book and appreciated and appreciate the support that I have received here and in my fan group. The reason for this break is down to my mental health. Thne break with my ex triggered my bipolar disorder in one of the worse episodes I have had in a long time.I am happy to say that while I'm not 100%, I am better than I was and I am ready to start writing again. I have actually already started, but I am trying to think of this sensibly and I am aiming to build up a number pf chapters so that if I have a bad day you will still get updates. That being said, this is the plan going forward. Beyond Beta's Rejection will begin updating again on November 1st 2021. I fully intend for this to be daily updates. The plan is for this book to be complete by the end of November (unless another crazy twist happens).

(Colton’s POV) ****Ten years ago*** “Hey!” I felt a sharp pain in my arm and glared round at Damien. “What the fuck, man?” I exclaimed, rubbing my arm where he had just punched me. “You just got us killed, you idiot!” he said, and pointed to the large screen in front of us. I blinked and saw the words GAME OVER splashed across the screen in red writing that was meant to look like blood splatter, “Seriously man, those twerps annihilated us because you were too busy mentally wanking off in your head” Damien snapped. Geez, it was just a computer game, but he had been restless lately, so I let him off. “Shit, sorry man,” I said. “I guess I was just thinking about-” “Harper,” Damien rolled his eyes, “Yeah, I know” “It’s just, she seemed different today,” I said, thinking back to the morning I had spent with my angel. “She seemed like she was coming around to things,” Which I was happy about

(Harper’s POV)I walked up the path and saw Colton smiling at me. I couldn’t help but roll my eyes. The idiot really did still think he had some sort of chance with me. His smile widened, and I shook my head.“What do you want, Colton?” I asked, making sure I kept away from him. I might have warrior training, but he still had brute strength on me and he had caught me off guard more than once. He gave me a confused look and then scowled.“What was last night all about?” he shot at me. I didn’t know what he was talking about for a second, but then I remembered briefly seeing faces at the pack house when Elias carried me in. I couldn’t have said whose faces they were. I guessed one was Colton.“It was personal,” I said and shrugged.“I don’t like the way he thinks he has a claim on you,” he said and I rolled my eyes again.“Did

(Harper’s POV)I looked at myself in the mirror and scowled. Dress comfy! That’s what the note said. I mean, what the fuck did that mean. Dress comfy means pajamas or joggers, but a date required more. What did date comfy mean? I had changed between my skinny black jeans and my black joggers twice now. I huffed at myself in the mirror and pulled my messy bun down and let my hair fall down my back. It was already 5pm, and I was getting annoyed at myself for being such a girl. I sighed. Screw it! Black joggers and a purple sleeveless top. With my hair down and a touch of lip gloss and mascara and I was giving in.I grabbed my mobile phone and headed out the door and bumped straight into a wall of muscle. I looked from the black t-shirt that was pulled tight around the chest to Elias’ smiling face. I got a full on smell of his sea salt and mint scent and I forgot what I was doing as I felt a stirring inside of me. Elias&rsquo

(Harper’s POV)I woke up the next morning, still wrapped in Elias’ arms. I opened my eyes as Maia hummed content in my head. She seemed louder than ever and happy.“Maia?” I asked in my head and felt her shift around“Not yet,” she said, knowing what I was asking. I mean, after all, she was me. “Not yet, but soon. I can feel it,” and then she curled up and went back to humming. I was suddenly feeling restless, like I did when I was fifteen, before my first shift. It felt like something was trying to break through. Then it was Maia, but that wasn’t it this time, because Maia was already here.I felt Elias move behind me, and he snuggled into me, nuzzling his nose into my neck.

(Harper’s POV) I looked in the mirror at my reflection and smiled.The full length black dress had a sheer back with diamonds sewn in that looked like they floated on my bare skin and one leg could be seen through the thigh high split. My hair was styled in a curled updo with a few curls trailing down against my shoulders and sparkled with diamond style hair clips. I had my makeup simple with barely a silver sheen across my eyes and cheeks and pale, almost skin tone lip gloss. The only jewellery I wore was the ring that I was unable to remove. I looked at Louise in the mirror, who looked stunning in her silver satin full length dress and I was reminded of ten years ago when we were in my room getting ready for the ball. So much had changed in that time. I was sad that Katie wasn’t here with us, but it had become apparent that the distance between Katie and Louise was more than just time. I had tried to ask Louise about it, but she had just

(Harper’s POV)My shifting for the first shift wasn’t fun. It was long; it was hard, and it was painful as hell. I remembered back a couple of weeks before my fifteenth birthday; I had started to get a fever. I had been so unwell and couldn’t understand why my parents seemed so excited about it. It was around a week later that I had started to feel the aches around my body adjusting. I had been confused because I had watched my sister’s first shift, and it had seemed like a disappointing event. My parents had gotten excited, of course. Shifting for a wolf is one of our most treasured abilities and always celebrated. But after my sister had shifted, something had changed in the dynamic of the family. Before her shift, my parents would dote upon her every word and she could do no wrong. I had always felt a little out of place, the second child that no one really wanted but had gotten, anyway. I wasn’t mistreated or anything,

(Harper’s POV)I woke up in Elias’ arms as he was carrying me into the pack house. I was wrapped up in his tuxedo jacket as he snuck in through the back door, through the now darkened kitchen and up the backstairs. The ball was still going strong by the sounds of it, although I had no clue what time it was. We made it to Elias’ room without being spotted, and he smiled at me as he gently put me down on the sofa and kissed the top of my head. I watched as he headed to his large chest of drawers and pulled out a clean t-shirt. He came back over and slipped the jacket off me and helped me with putting the t-shirt on. My whole body ached and felt heavy. Even lifting my arms to concentrated effort.Once the t-shirt was in place, Elias settled on the sofa next to me and pulled me onto his lap. I curled into him, suddenly feeling exhausted again.&nbs

Beyond Beta's Rejection What next
Thank you for reading Beyond Beta's Rejection. This project started out so very different to where it ended. But I love the direction it took. As you can see, this part of the story is over, but there is so much more to tell. There will be a second book. I am in the process of mapping out and outlining now and I am hoping to start writing and releasing chapters in the first quarter of 2022. But for now I need to work on another project which you will soon likely see appear. Thank you once again for the time and money that you have spent of this labour of love of mine and I hope you enjoyed reading as much as I enjoyed writing it. I will be talking more abou this and other books in my fan group Aisling's Puzzle Pieces. I can't add links here but I am sure that if you search my name on certain sites then you will soon find it. Lastly I want to thank my e
Beyond Beta's Rejection Chapter 83
(Harper’s POV)The next few days seemed filled with so much activity. Elias and I announced that we had completed the mate bond, and for the most part, people seemed happy. But I noticed both Drake and Tommy sharing a look that I tried to question later with Tommy. He continued to be evasive with me the whole time, but insisted that he was happy for us. Elias said that maybe I was imagining it, but I was sure there was something that they weren’t telling me.The Council swept into town for debriefing everyone after the battle. Elias was cleared of any suspicion and we heard that the sovereign had ordered a full sweep of every member of the Council to weed out any more Circle members. In private, Drake confirmed that he was in fact the Divine Warrior for the Immortal line and he, Harry and Aaron spent many hours poured over texts about the two
Beyond Beta's Rejection Chapter 82
(Harper’s POV)The battle seemed to dissipate after I killed Nathaniel. I didn’t know if seeing me slaughter their feared leader with the angel blade scared them or if it was just good timing, but there was no more fighting. I looked around to see the courtyard, a mess of dead and wounded.“Harper?” I turned to see Tommy looking at me in disbelief.“Hey,” I said and shrugged. He grinned, tears down his face,“Fucking hell Harper,” he pulled me into a hug and I laughed, “Don’t ever do that to me again,”“I’ll do my best,” I said. He pulled me to arms’ length.“You look differ
Beyond Beta's Rejection Chapter 81
(Harper’s POV)My eyes flew open as I woke up in the cells. I sat up and looked around, allowing my eyes to adjust to the low light after the brightness of the Neverplain. I looked down to see the angel blade still in my stomach. I inclined my head at it curiously. Was I meant to pull it out myself? Everything was beginning to blur for me. The Neverplain and my angel and the visit from Drake. Did Drake really visit? Or was that just my perverted imagination putting him there? And was he really also a Divine Warrior? There were a million questions running through my mind, some repeated, some serious, some stupid. It was like my mind was in overdrive and I couldn’t focus on one thing.I heard a chuckle to one side of me and looked towards the source.“Hello darling,” Marcus said from his perch
Beyond Beta's Rejection Chapter 80
(Drake’s POV)I looked down at the werewolf in front of me in sympathy. I had heard many things about Elias Owens. I knew his family were allies of the order and also knew they had been ripped apart by the destructive Circle twenty or so years back. I even remembered Owen’s brief time at the Council. He had disappeared one night and then a couple of days later, I heard about the attack on his pack. I had no idea that he had a demon bloodline in him. He had hidden it well.And now here he was, cradling his dead lover. The sweet Harper. The beautiful woman who had risen in the ranks of the warriors with ease over the years. I was unsurprised by her progress as I watched her. I could tell at first sight who she was, or what she was. Her ethereal glow was unmistakable and would be recognised by others of our kind. I was almost surprised that she didn&rs
Beyond Beta's Rejection Chapter 79
(Elias’ POV)My head was pounding as I woke up to the buzz of activity. I sat up, looking around to see that I was laid in one of the booths at Howlers. The room was filled with council warriors, as well as some of my own. I looked around for the centre of the activity and saw the vampire that had tried to take Harper from me.Then it hit me again. Harper. My beautiful mate was dead. I felt like I couldn’t breathe all over again as a single tear slipped down my cheek. The rage followed and with it the stirring of the demon inside me.“Kill,” it said. The guttural voice felt raw with hatred. I agreed with what he said. I had to find Nathaniel and rip him apart limb from limb. I would scatter his remains across the town and the ground would be soaked with his blood. I would make him
Beyond Beta's Rejection Chapter 78
(Colton’s POV)I was dragged from the cells by two or three warriors, still hearing the painful screams of the woman I loved. I tried to fight, but I heard Nathaniel instruct them to drag me back to the pack house. I was thrown into the Alpha’s office as Nathaniel strode in, instructing various warriors to surround the house and be on guard. Louise was in the corner crying, her makeup streaming down her face. I glanced over and she looked up at me. Despite all the hatred, all that I had done to her, I knew that in this moment we were both mourning someone we loved. I saw that acknowledgement in her eyes.Nathaniel sat at the desk and began to speak but he was interrupted by the sound of a mournful howl, one so powerful it could be heard all the way from the cells to where we were now. One so painful that it meant only one thing. Immediately, t
Beyond Beta's Rejection Chapter 77
(Elias’ POV)***Earlier in the Day***The last few days had been terrible. I had been in constant battle with whatever this thing was inside of me. The rage inside me at seeing the man responsible for my sister’s death had been like a drug to the monster, and I had spent much of the time in the back of my own mind. All I was able to do was to go over the events that had just happened. Finding out that Harper was a member of the Council was a shock. But then she mentioned that name, Nathaniel. There was no way that the man she thought could help me was the same man I had spent so many years hunting for. I stopped struggling against the warriors then. Either Harpers Nathaniel was going to help sort this epic misunderstanding out or…Seeing his face was enough to unleash the monster. The man I had be

(Harper’s POV) I looked over to see Colton standing there in a black suit and black tie. Despite everything that had happened between us, I couldn’t deny that he looked good in the suit. He moved into the room and kissed his mother on the cheek before holding his hand out to me. I looked at the hand, not wanting to take it. Colton sighed and then nodded to two warriors dressed in all black. They both advanced on Louise, and she backed away. “My uncle was clear, you are both to be escorted this evening,” Colton said, his face blank, “It can be done the civil way, or the not so civil way and I saw one of the warriors handling what looked like a collar and lead. “Fine,” I Snapped and took Colton’s hand, “But if he tries to put that on my friend, I will use it to strangle him with.” the warrior stopped an
