Lycan Heart-The Rejected Mate 0061
Cana’s POVThe ropes fell to the floor, their release almost silent, but the significance of the moment echoed loudly in my mind. Everything around me stilled. The rogues, who moments ago had been poised to harm me, stood frozen in shock. Even Aiden, the smug leader of this chaotic group, had taken a wary step back, his usual air of confidence faltering for a split second.I didn’t understand what had just happened. One moment, I was helpless, bound by the ritual, and in the next, something within me had snapped. Power surged through my veins, unfamiliar yet intoxicating. I could feel it—alive, pulsating, as though it had always been there, waiting for the right moment to emerge.Aiden’s lips curled into a smirk, his eyes gleaming with a twisted sense of pride. “I told you, Cana,” he said, his voice low but dripping with satisfaction. “This power was always inside you. You just needed a little push.”His words felt like ice water running through my veins. The power that I now felt cou
Lycan Heart-The Rejected Mate 0062
Cana’s POVThe cold wind bit at my skin as I stood there, frozen, staring at the massive figure emerging from the shadows. My heart pounded in my chest, the tension in the air palpable. Zane was still at my side, his eyes sharp and alert as he positioned himself protectively in front of me. But nothing could prepare me for the face that appeared beneath the moonlight.It was him. The Alpha.But not Axel.“Jeremy,” Zane whispered in disbelief, his voice barely audible. His body tensed, instinctively taking a step back. “What are you doing here?”Jeremy, Axel’s older brother, stepped into the clearing, his broad shoulders and imposing frame casting a long shadow on the ground. His red eyes glowed under the pale moonlight, making him appear even more dangerous. Unlike Axel, Jeremy commanded a level of authority and power that felt overwhelming, even from this distance. It was as if the very air bowed to him.A slow, predatory smile spread across Jeremy’s lips, revealing sharp teeth that

Jeremy’s POV The darkness enveloped me like an old friend. It wasn’t something I feared; it was where I thrived. As the shadows swirled around me, I felt the raw energy of Cana’s power pulsing through the bond we shared in that brief moment of contact. The power inside her was even stronger than I had imagined—wild, untamed, and perfect for what I needed. Axel had always been blind to what was right in front of him. His focus on Ivy and the child she carried had made him weak and distracted. But I saw Cana for what she truly was—a force of nature waiting to be unleashed. My brother was too foolish to understand what he’d rejected. Now, it was my turn to claim what was rightfully mine. I watched as Axel and Zane stumbled into the void I had created, trapped by the force of my power. Their desperation was palpable, their efforts pitiful. Axel still clung to his delusions of control, but he had never been able to keep up with me. That was why I left the pack in the first place. Memo

Cana’s POVThe air crackled with energy, and my heart pounded as I lowered my trembling hand, staring at the small barrier I’d managed to create. It wasn’t much, but it had been enough to stop Jeremy. For a moment, I almost believed I could stand my ground against him, but the cold reality was that I was still far too weak.Zane was in front of me now, his posture tense, ready to protect me at all costs. Axel stood nearby, his eyes burning with fury as he squared off against Jeremy. The tension between the two brothers was thick, and I felt trapped in the middle of their lifelong conflict. But I couldn’t deny the surge of power I felt in Jeremy’s presence. He saw something in me that Axel never did. Something I barely understood myself.I took a shaky breath, trying to steady my thoughts. I couldn’t let Jeremy’s words get to me. No matter how powerful he was, I couldn’t trust him. He wanted to use me—just like Axel had, though in a different way.“You won’t control me,” I said, more t

“Ivy isn’t pregnant.”Those words from Mia’s message swirled in my head like a violent storm, refusing to settle. I had stayed up all night trying to process what I had learned, tossing and turning as I replayed everything that had happened. The betrayal, the lies, the manipulation—it was all becoming too much to bear.Ivy had manipulated Axel and deceived everyone, using a non-existent pregnancy as a shield to secure her position and influence. I couldn’t let this continue. I couldn’t let her get away with it.As dawn broke, my decision was made. This time, I wasn’t going to be passive. I had allowed other people to control my fate for too long—whether it was Axel, Jeremy, or even Ivy. I had always been the one reacting to the things happening around me, but no more. I needed to confront her, expose her lies, and take back control of my own life.Zane had offered to come with me, but I declined. I needed to do this alone. It was personal. My mind was set as I left his place, the risi

Ivy’s POVI could feel it from the moment Axel and I met up with the rest of the pack—something was different. He was distant, his usual warmth replaced by a cold detachment. His eyes barely lingered on me, and even when they did, it was like he was looking through me, not at me.I watched as Axel spoke with the pack, issuing orders, his commanding presence unmistakable. Normally, I would have taken pride in standing beside him, the Luna of the pack, but today… I felt like a shadow. The pack moved around him with ease, but I could sense their unease when it came to me. Whispers had started circling behind my back—nothing concrete, but enough to make me question whether they were onto me. Did someone know? Or worse, did Axel suspect?No, it couldn’t be. I was too careful. Too thorough. My plan was flawless.But as the meeting dragged on, I couldn’t take it any longer. I had to talk to Axel. I needed to understand why he was so distant. After dismissing the pack, I walked over to him, m

Chapter 67: New AlliancesIvy’s mind whirled with anger and jealousy after Axel’s rejection. Her hatred for Cana had reached a fever pitch. How could that weak girl—someone who had never known what it was like to fight for a place in the pack—steal Axel’s focus so completely? Ivy had fought, lied, and manipulated her way to the top, yet Axel discarded her as if she were nothing.A knock at the door interrupted her dark thoughts. She opened it, half expecting one of the pack members, but instead, she was met with the smirking face of Jeremy. His presence unsettled her at first; Jeremy had a reputation for being unpredictable and ruthless, even more so than his brother Axel.“I hear you’ve got a problem,” Jeremy said, his voice smooth and full of intrigue as his eyes glinted with mischief. He took a step inside without waiting for her invitation.Ivy hesitated for a moment, but then it clicked. Jeremy had his agenda. He always had. And he wasn’t loyal to Axel. That meant she might final

Cana lay in bed, her thoughts swirling with the heavy revelations from the previous days. Her mind refused to quiet down, even as exhaustion tugged at her. Jeremy’s sudden alliance with Ivy, Axel’s desperate pursuit of her, and now the truth about her hybrid nature—all of it was overwhelming.Sleep finally came, but it brought no peace. Instead, a wave of cold swept over her, pulling her into a deep, unsettling darkness. And then, the vision hit.She stood in a forest clearing, moonlight filtering through the dense canopy above. The scent of pine and earth was sharp, almost suffocating. Her heart began to race as she sensed something familiar—something painfully wrong.Ahead, she saw Zane. He was on his knees, cradling something in his arms. As Cana walked closer, her legs trembling beneath her, the horrifying realization dawned on her. Zane was holding her lifeless body.The sight of her own pale, motionless form shook her to the core. Her bloodless lips, her vacant eyes—it felt like

Cana’s eyes fluttered open slowly, the faint sound of voices stirring her from the darkness. Her vision was blurry, but she recognized Zane and Mia hovering over her.“Her heartbeat is slowing down,” Zane’s tense voice broke the silence.“Should we call a doctor?” Mia’s voice trembled with worry.“That won’t be necessary,” Zane replied, though his tone betrayed his unease.As her vision cleared, Cana saw their anxious faces. She tried to sit up, and Zane immediately supported her, his touch warm and steady.“How are you feeling?” he asked, his deep voice soft but filled with concern.“I’m fine,” Cana said hoarsely, her throat dry.“Are you sure? Did something happen?” Zane pressed, his brows furrowed in worry.Cana managed a faint smile. “I’m fine. It’s probably just all the stress from this week. Sorry for worrying you guys.”Mia stepped forward, handing Cana a glass of water. “Here, drink this.”Cana took it gratefully, sipping the cool liquid.“All right,” Zane said, his voice stil

Axel’s sharp hearing picked up the faint rustle of leaves before he turned his gaze toward the intruder. His keen eyes focused on the man holding a weapon that gleamed under the dim light of the moon filtering through the estate’s tall windows.The man smirked, raising the gun toward Axel, his finger brushing the trigger. “They warned me about you, Alpha,” the attacker sneered. “But I’ve got something special. One shot and even your kind won’t survive; Marshall sends his regards.”Axel tilted his head, thinking fast. He realized that Marshall probably sent this person, and if he was human, he had Wolfbane with him, probably in the gun.‘Finally some fun.’ Axel thought to himself a feral smile curling at his lips. His eyes darkened, glowing faintly as his wolf stirred. “You think you can stop me with that weapon.”Bang!The first shot rang out, and Axel sprang into action. His sharp reflexes had him dodging to the side, the bullet embedding itself into the mahogany wall behind him. M

The next dayThe evening was quieter than usual, but Cana’s mind roared louder than ever. Mia's words replayed in her head like a relentless drumbeat."You need to tell him, Cana. The longer you keep this from Zane, the worse it'll be."Cana paced around in the master bedroom while Zane was still in the office, clutching the edges of her sweater. The guilt was unbearable, a heavy weight crushing her chest. She had lied to the one person who had stood by her through everything. Yet, the idea of seeing Zane’s face crumble as she revealed her betrayal felt even worse.She collapsed onto the bed, her fingers trembling as she toyed with the edges of her phone. Could she do this? Could she tell Zane the truth and risk losing him forever?Mia knocked and entered the room, her expression one of concern and determination. “You’ve been sitting here all night. If you’re not going to tell him now, then we need to start thinking about how to fix this.”“Fix this?” Cana’s voice was hollow. “How do

Chains of DeceptionMia’s footsteps echoed softly through the corridor as she approached Cana’s room. Her heart was heavy with the knowledge she had uncovered. The whispers of Cana’s connection to Axel had spread like wildfire among Axel’s loyalists, and Mia could no longer ignore the sinking feeling of betrayal. She pushed the door open without knocking, startling Cana, who sat on the bed, her face pale and weary.÷÷__÷÷She slowly walked up to her and slapped her, “You know who Axel is and what he has done to you; you should have told me, Cana. I trusted you.”“I know,” Cana whispered. “And I’m sorry.”Cana’s heart dropped. The air seemed to thicken, making it hard to breathe. “Mia... can you allow me to explain .”“Explain?” Mia’s voice cracked, a mixture of anger and hurt. “Explain how you betrayed all of us. How did you let that monster manipulate you?”“I didn’t betray you,” Cana whispered, her voice barely audible. “I didn’t have a choice.”Mia’s eyes softened, but her anger d

Shadows of PowerThe morning sun filtered through the thick curtains of Zane's house, but Cana barely noticed. Axel hadn’t contacted her telepathically for a while, so she decided to get him off her mind by trying to tap into the dark powers within her; sitting cross-legged on the wooden floor of her room, she focused on the strange energy that had been stirring within her for weeks. The dark power hummed beneath her skin, urging her to let it out. She closed her eyes, her breathing steady as she tried to channel it.At first, nothing happened. But then, a spark of energy surged through her fingertips, and the air around her seemed to shimmer. A vase on the nearby table rattled and then shattered into pieces. Cana flinched, opening her eyes.“What the hell was that?” she muttered to herself.The door to her room burst open, and Mia appeared, her eyes wide with alarm. “Cana! What’s going on in here?”Before Cana could answer, Mart peeked in from behind Mia, his usually calm demeanor re

Zane sat at his desk, his eyes fixed on the reports in front of him, but his mind was elsewhere. The conversation with Cana replayed over and over in his head. She had apologized, but the lack of clarity still gnawed at him. Her words felt more like a pacifier than the truth.“Are you going to stare at that paper until it bursts into flames?” Mart’s voice jolted him out of his thoughts. Mart leaned against the doorframe, a knowing smirk on his face.Zane sighed, leaning back in his chair. “I can’t shake this feeling. She’s hiding something, and it’s not just about that night. There’s more.”Mart entered the office, closing the door behind him. “Look, Cana’s been through a lot. Maybe she’s trying to protect you or herself. Have you thought about that?”Zane shook his head. “That’s the problem. I don’t want protection. I want honesty. If she’s keeping secrets, it could put all of us at risk.”Mart frowned. “You think it’s connected to Axel?”Zane nodded. “ I don’t think so.”Meanwhile,

“Do you think he knows?”Zane sat in his office, his hands clasped together tightly on the desk as he listened to Mart’s incessant pacing. The tension in the room was palpable, the soft shuffle of Mart’s shoes across the floor punctuated only by his muttered thoughts. Cana and Mia sat nearby, exchanging glances, their expressions a mixture of concern and curiosity.Mart finally stopped, turning toward Zane with wide, panicked eyes. “Do you think he knows?”Zane leaned back in his chair, his gaze calm but calculating. “Knows what?”“This morning,” Mart began, his voice trembling, “the cops called me. Apart from Axel, there were 4 other buyers for your shares; today, They were asking questions about the four clients who…died. How the hell did all four of them just end up dead.” He paused, swallowing hard. “I am sure he’s behind it; do you think Axel figured it out? That I’m a fake? That I had something to do with it?”Zane’s expression darkened slightly, though he remained composed. “It

Cana crept through the front door, the soft creak of the hinges reverberating through the quiet house. She glanced at the clock: 12:03 AM. Everyone should be asleep by now, she thought, her footsteps light as she made her way to the stairs.“Where are you coming from?”The voice, sharp and unmistakable, stopped her in her tracks. She turned, her heart sinking when she saw Zane standing in the living room, his arms crossed, his eyes cold and piercing.“I went to see a friend,” she replied, her voice barely steady.“Don’t lie to me,” Zane said, stepping toward her. His tone was controlled, but there was an edge of fury in it that Cana had never heard before.Her pulse quickened. She could feel her heart hammering in her chest, and Zane could hear it too.“You never told me you were leaving,” he continued, his eyes narrowing. “And your heart is racing. Where. Were. You?”Cana had never seen this side of him before. Zane was always calm, gentle, and understanding. But this version of him—
Lycan Heart-The Rejected Mate 0113
The air was thick with tension as Cana reluctantly made her way to Axel’s private suite as usual. But tonight was different; she didn’t leave Zane's house by 3 am his time each step she took felt heavier than the last, and the weight of Axel’s control pressed down on her. The blackmail hung over her like a dark cloud, and though she despised being summoned, she had no choice but to comply.Axel had requested her presence to “celebrate,” but Cana knew better than to trust his motivations. She clutched the straps of her bag tightly, her mind racing with strategies to deflect his probing questions and maintain her composure.When she arrived, the door was slightly ajar. She knocked gently before stepping in.“Ah, Cana,” Axel’s voice was warm and inviting, but she could see the calculating glint in his eyes. He gestured toward a table laden with expensive wine and delicacies. “Join me. Tonight, we celebrate new beginnings.”Cana forced a small smile and moved cautiously to take a seat acr
