His rejected mate 18. What have I gotten myself into?
I awoke with a groan, agonizing pain pulsing through my head. Gingerly, I touched my forehead, feeling the rough texture of bandages wrapped around it. As I slowly sat up in bed, trying to piece together what had happened, I suddenly realized I was in an unfamiliar room.My eyes widened as I took in my surroundings. The room was lavish and elegant, decorated in various shades of dark grey. Rich, charcoal-colored velvet curtains framed floor-to-ceiling windows. A massive, ornate chandelier hung from the ceiling, its crystals catching what little light filtered through the curtains. The furniture was all sleek and modern, with clean lines and a masculine energy.The scent hit me next - a familiar, intoxicating aroma that made my heart race. I knew this scent all too well. This was Alpha Dylan’s room.As the realization dawned on me, memories of my argument with my mother and the subsequent fall down the stairs came flooding back. Before I could process this further, the bedroom door swu
His rejected mate 19. I could get use to this.
The warm water cascaded over me, washing away some of the tension from the past few days. As I stepped out of his very sophisticated shower, I wrapped myself in one of Dylan’s towels. His scent enveloped me, making my head spin. It was comforting yet intoxicating, and I found myself breathing it in deeply.Realizing I had no clothes of my own, I padded into Dylan’s walk-in closet. It was huge and lavish, filled with impeccably tailored suits and designer clothing. I couldn’t help but run my fingers along the fabric, reveling in the softness and the lingering scent that was uniquely Dylan.Smiling to myself, I made my way to his dresser. I pulled out a white t-shirt, bringing it to my nose and inhaling deeply before tugging it over my head. It fell to my thighs, engulfing me in its size and his scent.Chuckling, I eyed his boxers, knowing they’d never fit me properly. Instead, I returned to the bathroom and retrieved my own underwear. Thankfully, the mesh material had dried quickly aft
His rejected mate 20. The commotion.
I woke up feeling comforted, enveloped in warmth. Dylan’s arm was draped around me as he slept soundly, his steady breath tickling the back of my neck. His scent—clean, with a hint of cedar—was intoxicating, almost making me moan out in sweet bliss. Ugh, I could definitely get used to this, I thought.But then, reality intruded. My mother. The worry about her crashed into my serene morning. Maybe I could quietly remove myself from Dylan’s embrace, get a quick shower, and ensure she was okay. She might need me after going an entire day without seeing me, I needed to ensure I didn't need to put her into a mental institution.Slowly, I inched my hand towards Dylan’s, gently lifting it from my waist. His skin was warm, the weight of his arm both comforting and confining. As I tried to slip out of bed, his arm tightened around me, pulling me back into his chest. I felt his lips press against my hair, and he murmured, “You didn’t think you could get away from me that easily, did you, baby g
His rejected mate 21. Caught red handed.
I stared at the door where Dylan had disappeared, anxiety building with each passing second. It had been two minutes, but it felt like an eternity. Unable to sit still any longer, I hopped out of bed and headed to the window. My mouth fell open at the sight before me. There, standing and talking, were Dylan and Ryan, Alpha Ryan was back!My skin tingled and my knees felt weak at the sight of the gorgeous man in the distance. I missed him so much! I knew he would return in one piece but seeing him again was overwhelming. My eyes darted around for my father, thinking he must be back too, which was definitely not good. He’d probably come bursting through the door any second now looking for me.Then, I remembered something crucial. Quickly, I got in front of the mirror and removed my headband. If Ryan ever saw this, he would surely go looking for a fight, considering he was the eldest of the twins and more aggressive. I only hoped Dylan hadn’t told him anything, though I feared he might.
His rejected mate 22. Breakfast first.
Ryan pulled me into his arms, making me gasp at the sudden contact. My knees weakened as I looked up at him shyly, his intense gaze making my heart race even faster. “Where are you going, little one?” he asked, his voice a deep growl.I saw his eyes flash and his teeth extend, my own eyes widening. He wanted to mark me, to ensure I wouldn’t run away. He felt threatened, his alpha instincts telling him I didn’t want to be with him. His wolf felt hurt by my actions.Taking a risk, I quickly hugged him tight to me, feeling his tense body soften under my touch just few minutes later. But that wasn’t the only thing—I could feel myself heating up under his embrace. His scent was intoxicating.Alpha Ryan tightened his hold on me, wrapping his arms around my body. I bit my lip, my eyes meeting Dylan’s across the room. His hazy eyes made my heart pound even harder. I breathed in Ryan’s scent, feeling his hand knead every part of my body, especially my ass.A moan escaped my lips, my core throb
His rejected mate 23. Just perfect.
Before I could react, Ryan’s strong arms wrapped around my waist, lifting me effortlessly. A startled gasp escaped my lips as he playfully tossed me onto the bed. I landed with a soft bounce, the bed’s surface cushioning me as I looked up at him with wide, uncertain eyes.Ryan’s smirk was both playful and commanding as he climbed onto the bed in front of me, his presence overwhelming in the best possible way. His eyes were dark with a hunger that made my heart race, and my cheeks flush a deep crimson. I felt a rush of nervous excitement as I realized the shift in the atmosphere.Dylan, leaning casually against the doorframe, observed with an approving smirk. His gaze was steady and intense, and I could feel the weight of his attention even from a distance.“What’s the matter, Lily?” Ryan’s voice was low and dripping with intent. His hands hovered near me; his touch tantalizingly close but not yet making contact. “You seem nervous.”Not only were his words but his proximity made me fee
His rejected mate 24. Seeking a solution.
I scrambled off the bed, my heart pounding with a mix of fear and concern. I couldn’t let Ryan storm off in a rage without trying to stop him from going at war with my parents. Dylan was immediately by my side, his hand wrapping around mine firmly. He shook his head slightly, a silent plea for me not to do anything irrational.“Alpha Ryan, wait!” I called out, my voice trembling slightly.Ryan didn’t slow down or acknowledge me. His steps were swift and purposeful, his fury evident. The staff members we passed bowed their heads in recognition of their alpha, their expressions a mix of respect and apprehension.Dylan stayed close, his grip on my hand a steadying presence.Just as Ryan flung the front door open, my eyes widened in surprise. Standing in the doorway were their parents, Alpha Dominic and Luna Freya. Their presence was commanding, and their eyes took in the scene with a mix of curiosity and concern.Luna Freya’s eyes softened as she took in the scene before her. “It seems,”
His rejected mate 25. A second blackout.
I found myself pacing anxiously outside the two grand doors, my heart pounding in my chest. The meeting that would decide my fate with that of the twins was happening just beyond those ornate barriers. I couldn’t help but feel like a child waiting outside the principal’s office, except the stakes were infinitely higher.Why wasn’t I included in this meeting, yet the twins were?! I wasn’t a child! It was my fate after all.My mind raced with possibilities. I desperately hoped for some kind of peaceful resolution to come out of this tense situation. Maybe, just maybe, the twins and my mother could come up with a solution that would allow me to coexist with both my parents and the twins. It was a naive thought, perhaps, but I clung to it like a lifeline. The idea of a happily ever after seemed so close yet so far away.Every few seconds, I’d stop to press my ear against the door, straining to hear any snippet of conversation. But the thick wood muffled everything, leaving me in agonizing
