CHAPTER SEVENTEEN: YOU WON THIS ROUND!
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Zane’s POV
After the call with Kayla, I was in a good mood all day. I must have looked stupid with a silly smile plastered on my face, but I didn’t care. It was not as if anyone had any complaints. All the people around me appeared grateful that I had stopped my tantrums.
I felt as if I had just had a lover’s spat with my mate and not a full on war. Well, anything was better than not having her in my life at all...
I remembered how pissed off she was at me. But I didn’t feel any pain that my mate appeared to hate me. She would love me sooner or later. I was sure of that. Until then, these little fights were the only way I could have her attention. Anyway, it was fun pressing her buttons like that. It would have been even better if we had the making up part after our fight, though. I guess I would just have to wait for that day. I was not known to be a patient man, but for her, I would

I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER EIGHTEEN: THE REQUEST
Kayla’s POVI received mixed reactions from the Alphas once I informed them about stopping the deals with them. While most of them sympathised with me and blamed Zane for putting me in such a desperate position, there were a few who were ticked off at me for going back on my word. It was not as if they were wrong either. I knew that my decision was affecting people who hadn’t done me any wrong, and I hoped I didn’t really have to carry on with my announcement. I was counting on them to pressure Zane into accepting defeat and I had every intention of resuming the deals with them once I heard back from the troublesome Alpha. To be honest, I admired those who had the guts to call me out while I felt disgusted at the ones who were trying to win my favour. They just wanted me to supply the weapons to their packs. They didn’t even care if I stopped my deals with the others as long as they got theirs…When a

Zane’s POVAfter deciding to send the goods to Kayla’s pack, I was just planning to write a simple apology letter to her. But when I started to write the letter, it occurred to me that it didn’t have to be that simple. When I had an opportunity to cause trouble to my beautiful mate, why should I waste it?As a new devilish plan started to form on my head, I put down the letter I was writing and leaned back into my seat. I twirled the pen in my hand as my lips pulled up into an evil smirk. Oh, you just handed me the perfect opportunity to do what my heart had been craving to do. I would not be writing a mere apology letter anymore. Instead, I would write a request to visit her pack so that I could convey my ‘regret’ to her in person…I wondered how she would react to my request. Will she be pissed off at my audacity? Or would she be confused and worried about the hidden agendas for my visit
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER TWENTY: TIME FOR DISCUSSION
Kayla’s POVAfter reading his letter, my first instinct was to call Zane and shout at him for his dramatic request to visit my pack. But then I realised that it was exactly what he would be waiting for. I had a feeling that he would run to the Council, crying about my ‘harassment’. I didn’t want to create any more hassle than I already had. So I decided that I would just have to cool down for now and wait until I see him in person.I felt a flutter in my stomach when I thought of meeting Zane again. Surely, I was not excited to meet him? I couldn’t be! Even as an indescribable longing intensified in my heart, I told myself that it wasn’t real. I was just waiting to get him in front of me so that I could deal with him properly. I would shake him until he admits his hidden agendas for visiting my pack. Yes, that was it…Shaking off my ridiculous thoughts, I looked back at the let
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER TWENTY ONE: THE KISS
Kayla’s POVI froze and my mind went blank as I struggled to realise what was happening. We were shouting at each other one moment and the next; he was kissing me…I stayed unresponsive as my brain tried to catch up with the reality that I was being kissed. Suddenly, Zane snaked his hand towards my back and squeezed my butt. As I gasped in shock, he used the opportunity to thrust his tongue inside my mouth, deepening the kiss.A strange sensation passed through me and there was a pleasant flutter in my stomach as he probed my mouth with his tongue. Even though I placed my hand on his chest, wanting to push him away, I ended up clutching his shirt instead. I pulled him closer to me and the buttons in his shirt flew in all directions in the room. But I was far too lost in the sensations that the kiss was awaking in me, to notice anything else. Without even knowing I was doing it, I started kissing him back.&n
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER TWENTY TWO: I AM JEALOUS?
Kayla’s POVI stared at Zane as the mischievous smile vanished from his face to be replaced by a genuinely happy one. Then he glanced at me and a flash of pain went through his eyes as our eyes met. His expression turned to a melancholic one before he shook it off, and once again, he sported a joyous expression. I almost got a whiplash at his sudden change of attitudes and wondered what was going through his head.As he walked towards me, I had the urge to take a step backwards, remembering how he had kissed me. But I didn’t want to show any weakness to him, and hence I forced myself to hold my ground. I looked at him warily as he smiled at me, as if we hadn’t just had a heated kiss, followed by an argument right now. What was wrong with this guy?Zane stopped just in front of me, and our bodies were almost touching. I couldn’t decide whether to close the distance between us or run to the other e
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER TWENTY THREE: PLANNING A CEREMONY
Kayla’s POVAfter Zane left the room, I sat in my office trying to gather my scattered thoughts. I was a jumbled mess of emotions with confusion, anger, happiness and the most troublesome of all, hope… I was used to being in a state of calmness or annoyance at all times and the pile of emotions were wreaking havoc on me. I didn’t know how I was supposed to deal with this many emotions at a time. So I decided to do what I did the best. I ignored them and tried to focus on the paperwork in front of me. Then I thought of how I would have to start the paperwork of Sara’s transfer as soon as she submits her request officially. I didn’t want to give Zane any reason to prolong his visit if I could deal with it at the earliest.Even as I tried to focus on the heap of papers in front of me, my mind kept wandering to the bundle of mischief that was Zane Black. I couldn’t help but remember our kiss, a
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER TWENTY FOUR: THE POSSESSIVE MATE
Kayla’s POVJust an hour ago, we were in this same room, having a heated discussion followed by a passionate kiss. And now here we were again, talking about someone else’s mating ceremony as if none of those had happened. As Zane stayed professional while planning the ceremony details and the transfer of Sara, I could only feel grateful that he wasn’t harassing me again.“I will induct her as my pack member at the ceremony itself so that the function would flow smoothly. She needs to be in the same pack as her mate for their mind link to grow stronger, though just exchanging blood would start the bond. We could just have a simple induction function to welcome her to my pack later when we are there,” he said.I nodded at him absentmindedly, just as I had been doing for the past twenty minutes or so. I was happy for the couple and had no problem with the ceremony itself. But planning its fine
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER TWENTY FIVE: SAVING MY BETA
Kayla’s POVI watched in horror as Zane leaped towards Ethan who stood there foolishly, as if ready to fight an Alpha. Ethan was the only person in this world I considered a friend and seeing him about to lose his life in front of me snapped me into a frenzy. That too, at the hands of my mate and somehow, I had the feeling that I had unknowingly caused this fight.So, I did the only thing I could think of at such a short notice. I jumped in front of Zane, blocking his path towards Ethan. I hoped that seeing me would calm his rage. But somehow, his already golden eyes glowed even more gold. And that was a thing I hadn’t thought possible until now. I realised my stupidity too later as Zane growled at me in warning. He was pissed off that his mate was trying to protect another man, and he was far too lost in his wolf senses to understand my reasons for it. He could only perceive it as his mate choosing someone else ov

Three weeks later…Kayla’s POVAfter I killed Stephen, we searched the mansion and found the papers of his research. We destroyed everything to make sure that no one would ever get the idea to create a race of wolves with magic ever again. Once that was done, we covered our tracks and ensured we left nothing that led to us. Done with our work, we left the place since the spell that blocked us from escaping had already gone down by then.The next day, I announced our relationship to my pack since I had no more reservations about it. The man had literally faced death for me several times, and I loved him as much as I could ever do anyone. There was nothing that stopped me from accepting our relationship wholeheartedly. The pack received the news with far more enthusiasm than I had expected. Even Ethan appeared to be genuinely happy at the way I accepted Zane, and I decided that it was time to let g
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER EIGHTY SEVEN: LET’S GO HOME
Kayla’s POV I stalked towards Stephen, and he stood there looking at me with wide eyes. He was no longer sporting the smug expression from before, and he didn’t look interested in my wolf anymore either. “Kayla darling…” he called out in a coaxing tone that one would use to soothe an aggressive dog. I let out a loud growl at him and he flinched and took a few steps back. “I am your uncle, remember? I am the only one left in the world for you. You don’t want to harm me, right? You don’t want to be alone in this world, right?” The red in my vision darkened at his stupid words, and I snarled in response. ‘And whose fault is it that I have no one else left? Weren’t you the one who killed my entire family, you bastard!’ I mind linked him and his eyes widened in response. That’s right. He never left the pack officially, and hence he was still a member of my pack. And I am still his Alpha…
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER EIGHTY FIVE: TIME FOR JUSTICE
Kayla’s POVI looked horrified as the men laughed and approached Zane. I tried to hit my hand against the golden cage I was imprisoned in. But just like the last time, I was thrown off by the electric sparks from it. My hand sizzled for a moment before the burn healed. Well, it means the burns would heal at least. If I could just tolerate the pain, maybe I could break the cage?With renewed vigor, I took a few steps backwards, stopping right before my back hit the edge of the magical cage. Then I gritted my teeth, ready to endure the pain, and leaped towards the cage and kicked it. But all my efforts were for nothing. Even though I forced myself to endure the pain, it didn’t help like I had hoped. Instead of passing through the cage with some burns, it just repelled and threw me from it. I fell on the floor and panted hard, not even feeling the burns in my feet. My heart was suffering more pain than my body. If I couldn&

Kayla’s POVStephen looked startled at my sudden confidence, but then he smiled at me condescendingly.“My dear niece, I hope you have no illusions that you could fight against all of us? Being a girl and a measly wolf at that, you wouldn’t have stood a chance even if they were ordinary wolves. But with their magic, you have lost before you even start.”I didn’t bother to respond to him before looking over at the men next to him. With narrow eyes, I speculated about their strengths and anticipated their moves. I couldn’t ignore any details without knowing what would help me in dealing with them.“Aww, the little girl really is thinking of fighting us!” one man teased me.I walked backwards, and their eyes twinkled merrily, thinking I was going to run away. But they frowned in confusion when they saw that I just stood behind Zane.“Oh, the p
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER EIGHTY THREE: THE PERFECT SOLDIERS
Kayla's POV I looked at Zane with wide eyes and slowly turned to see Stephen standing there with a wide smile. He looked just as I remembered. As if he hadn't aged a day since the time I saw him five years ago. Come to think of it, he looked even younger than how he looked then. Either the life was really good for him or he had a few tricks up his sleeves to keep aging at bay. Given the crazy hunger for power he possessed, he couldn't have had a peaceful life that prevented him from sporting grey hair. And from the magic raging around us, he was definitely dabbling with wizardry and I had a feeling that it was also responsible for his youthful looks. I looked at him with a blank expression pasted on my face and even though his face looked exactly the same as when I had seen him when he was younger, he felt different somehow. Then I realiz

Kayla’s POVAs Raymond got busy with shouting instructions to his loyal followers, I slowly slipped away from him and walked over to Zane, who was standing there with a sour look.“Relax. You know I don’t care for his attention, right?” I whispered.“As if you cared about that when you saw Maggie flirting with me.”I flinched at the reminder of the witch and bit my lips when I realised that he wasn’t clueless about her pining like I thought he was. I had to give Kudos to his act, though. Even I was fooled into thinking that he didn’t notice her efforts.I looked up to see Zane’s nostrils flaring, and then he narrowed his eyes.“Just as I thought.”Huh?Zane looked at me with a smirk.“Guess who is reeking of Stephen’s scent?”My eyes widened in the realisation that Zane got Stephen’s
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER EIGHTY ONE: THE HERO OF THE PARTY
Kayla’s POVI stared at the skinny guy who stood staring at the unconscious man with a proud expression. He dusted his hands off before looking around the hall as if waiting for anyone else to challenge him. People looked at him and then the brawny guy on the ground before scampering off while a few lingered around, praising his strength.I watched as the bigger man who was still unconscious was dragged away from the hall by his peers. For a werewolf to become unconscious and to stay so for this long, how much force should have been used on him? That too by a guy who looked as if he couldn’t even stand straight on his own.It smelled really fishy, and I just knew it in my heart that this was all linked to Stephen. I didn’t have any evidence that said so, but my instincts were screaming at me that this has Stephen written all over it and my instincts had never let me astray so far.As the g
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER EIGHTY: DANCING AND SPYING...
Kayla’s POVWhen I thought of going to hunt Stephen, what I pictured in my mind was both of us getting dressed in badass spy costumes and searching for him stealthily until Zane gets his scent trail. And I thought it wouldn’t be much of a hassle since we were fairly certain that he was still somewhere in the state and we only needed to stop by in each of the towns before he could come across the vile man’s scent. We wolves could sniff out our prey for miles, and with Zane’s superior tracking skills, he could track the scents even farther than regular wolves.I had mapped it all in my head, and that’s why I was surprised when Zane declared his brand new plan that had nothing to do with what I had in mind.Zane had vetoed my grand plans by telling that it would look suspicious if we go to every town and sniff around for Stephen. He may get wind that we were searching for him, and we would nev
I reject you, Mr. Alpha CHAPTER SEVENTY NINE: THE DIARY OF A PSYCHOPATH
Kayla’s POVOnce Zane informed me that he got Stephen’s scent, I thought that we would start hunting him right away. But he insisted he needed to get some things done before commencing the tracking. My excitement took a nosedive at his declaration, but I decided I could use the time to check the snake’s diary.We locked the cottage, and I ignored Zane’s ill concealed laughter as I buried the key back in the plant pot. What is wrong with having a hiding place for a key?!When we reached the hotel room, I made a beeline for the couch and sat with the diary in my arms. I wanted to know what all nasty secrets it carried.Zane looked at me with amusement shining in his eyes, but seeing my determined expression, he left me to it before going to the balcony with his mobile.I opened the diary and noted that it was from the year of the rogue attack. For him to lock it in a hidden compartmen
