Midnight Sin (A Rejected Mate's Romance) Chapter Thirty-Eight: Alex
He goes towards the door, but I’m quicker. I come to stand in front of him, looking directly into his eyes. “Are you serious? You have something?”“I wouldn’t lie to you about it. But I’m not telling you shit until you shower and eat.”“How do you know if this lead is even legit?”“Because I already checked it out and now I know where Lyle has been hiding.”My chest fills with a balloon of hope. I might have a chance of saving Amber.“Let’s go,” I say.“Did you not hear me? I’m not going anywhere with you or telling you anything until you shower and eat. The last thing I want is for Amber to kick my ass for not taking care of you.”“I can eat later. Right now, finding Amber is more important.”He shakes his head at me, taking a seat on the couch. My temper rises, threatening to erupt. Colin sees it too. He sees my hands bal
Midnight Sin (A Rejected Mate's Romance) Chapter Thirty-Nine: Lyle
The chestnut hair I adore splays out over the bed. I look at the woman I brought home two weeks ago. She’s even more beautiful now with my bite marks etched into her skin. They are proof that she belongs to me and me alone. No other fanged beast will taste her exquisite blood. I only wish that I could claim her body as mine. It seems my manhood rejects Amber. Every time I’ve tried, he has refused to come alive. There’s nothing more embarrassing for a man. I can only guess it’s because Kimi is dead. My cock is pining for a ghost. That all ends tonight.I twirl the vial of love potion in my hands before downing it. A little witch swore that this would cure my broken heart enough for Amber to occupy it. For her sake, I hope she’s right. I would be all too happy to show her how deadly lying to me can be. My pet is still sleeping as I glide to her bedside. I lean down and pepper kisses down her neck. A knock interrupts my playtime. “My Lor
Midnight Sin (A Rejected Mate's Romance) Chapter Forty: Lyle
We walk towards a thick clump of trees. I can smell the dried blood on the trees. Stupid wolves left us a trail. But if we are to find them in this dense area, Thaddeus and I will have to go up onto the branches.“Thank you for all you’ve done, but we can take it from here, Linda.”“Yes, Lord Lyle.” She bows, but her small, blue eyes never leave mine.I watch her swing her hips as she leaves us to our work. Her flirty gesture sends an electrifying wake up call to my lower head, not even caring that she is the mother of my pet. Oh, I have got to get back soon. I need a release. I push my way through the trees, not waiting for Thaddeus to follow. There are trampled leaves and blood spots all over the forest floor. It gives me a clear path to follow.“My Lord, should we call for the others?”“I don’t want to wait for them. Let’s just get this over with.”We jump f
Midnight Sin (A Rejected Mate's Romance) Chapter Forty-One: Amber
Branches snap beneath my hurried, bloody feet. I don’t know where I am. All I know is that I have to run. The dancing trees offer no protection from my captors. I can hear them behind me, hissing as they close in on my trail. My lungs burn, and blood leaks from the wound on my torso. I’m exhausted, but I can’t stop. Not even for a second, or I’ll be caught. My only hope is to get out of these trees and into the rising sun. This would be much easier if I could get Vera to wake up, but this is why Jake trained me in my human form, too. We can’t always rely on our wolves to save us.The sun breaks through the tree line, offering me a breath of relief. There are only a few feet left between me and freedom. The hissing gets louder. I can feel the wind from their fast movements breathing down my neck. Dead fingers graze my shoulder, narrowly missing the chance to grab me. As the wind picks up more, my window to freedom closes. My feet feel like cement as I rush to touch the sunlight. I thro
Midnight Sin (A Rejected Mate's Romance) Chapter Forty-Two: Amber
I pounce on him the second he enters the room. He catches me before I fall, lowering us both to the ground. Everything in my body shifts as it hums back to life. Alex stays still, keeping his arms around me and letting my sad relief fall onto his chest. “Shhh, baby. I’m here.” “I thought I was going to die. Wait, I’m not dead, right?” “Hey.” He cups my face. “You’re alive. You made it out and you’re going to be okay. Everything is going to be okay.” I stare back at him. The dark circles beneath his eyes and the jungle of unruly facial hair are evidence of the pain he’s endured in my absence. Alex missed me, and I missed him. He rubs his hands down my arms. They pause, inspecting the bite marks. I can feel his anger, and by the pale color of his eyes, I know he’s plotting his revenge. “I’m fine. You don’t have to go after him.” “I’m so grateful that you are, but I will make that bastard pay. No one hurts you and lives to gloat about it.” His words don’t comfort me the way he hop
Midnight Sin (A Rejected Mate's Romance) Chapter Forty-Three: Amber
“How are you feeling?” Paige asks.“I’m okay. Really, I’m fine, Luna.”“Okay. Alpha Stephen is on his way. He left Moonbeam when he heard you were awake.”“He didn’t need to do that. I’m fine.”“Yes, yes. We all heard your lies,” Jake dismisses me. “You aren’t convincing anyone that you’re okay. I mean, you just spent two weeks with a deranged bloodsucker. No one would blame you for being on edge.”I give him a tight smile. I am on edge, but I’ve survived Lyle before and I’ll survive him again.“So, Amber, we believe we were sent to Raven’s Blood as a distraction. We think Alpha Clyde was feeding Lyle intel, and that’s how he knew where to find you,” Colin says.“Clyde is dead now, so no
Midnight Sin (A Rejected Mate's Romance) Chapter Forty-Four: Alex
I don’t have to be fully mated with Amber to feel her hesitance as we leave the hospital. It’s like she’s expecting the worst. I wish I could tell her that our pack will treat her better, but she’d never believe me. And why should she? This is the same pack that abandoned her when she needed them. I shoot some whispering nurses a look. These wolves should be ashamed of themselves. Every pack member has the right to walk freely here without creepy doctors and gossiping nurses. Amber’s hands coil around mine as I help her into the car. Despite my best efforts, she stays completely silent during the short drive home. We step into the house, and she winces as she eases herself onto the couch. “Do you need anything?” “No. I’m fine. You can go. I’m sure you have work to do.” I stand back to meet her eyes. “I’m not letting you out of my
Midnight Sin (A Rejected Mate's Romance) Chapter Forty-Five: Alex
The brightness of the sunrise forces my eyelids to open. Amber’s serene face is the first thing my eyes land on. Her head is on my chest with her leg wrapped around my torso. Goddess, how I’ve missed waking up like this. She’s so beautiful. I could never tire of looking at her. I kiss the top of her head lightly, not daring to wake her.“Mmmm. Alex,” she whispers in her sleep.Her leg skims the top of my manhood, awakening the eager muscle. I suppress a groan at the heavenly contact and try to make him stand down. This is not going to help me get Amber back and I’m pretty sure she wouldn’t want to wake up next to her almost mate and his hard cock. She moves again, applying more pressure to my groin. He reacts on his own, throbbing against her leg. My body freezes while I try to think of a way that I can move without waking her. As if my morning wasn’t going well enough, the

Luckily for us, our specialist agreed to move onto packlands for the last few weeks of my pregnancy. By the time we reach the hospital, I’m in tears from the pain. Our doctor meets us by the front door. “How long are the contractions?” “It’s just a constant pain,” Alex answers as he lays me on the hospital bed. “She’s had no relief.” “Okay. Amber, honey, it’s Dr. Roberts. Are you feeling any pressure to push?” My response is stolen by a sharp bite of pain to my pelvis. I grip Alex’s hand. Every single coping technique I learned during my pregnancy goes out the window. I barely register the rustling of bodies around me or the fact that Dr. Roberts is checking how close to delivery I am. “The babies are
Midnight Sin (A Rejected Mate's Romance) Epilogue (One year Later) Part 1: Amber
The sound of laughter carries through my childhood home. Alex offered to build a new one right next to the swimming hole, but I didn’t want to ruin that sacred ground. Instead, we turned my father’s old home into our new one. We gutted everything in it and started anew. Now, it’s a place of a happiness. “Princess! Come on, everyone wants to see you,” Alex says, grabbing my hand and dragging me to the living room. “Okay. Okay. Geez, I just wanted some snacks.” “You know, I’m going to have to come up with another name for you once the twins get here.” I lay a hand on my swollen belly. “Yeah, if one of them is a girl.” “Trust me. We’re having a boy and a girl. Just like Paige and Peyton only cuter cause they’ll be ours.”
Midnight Sin (A Rejected Mate's Romance) Chapter Ninety: Amber
“Tonight, we welcome Amber Tremaine as Gamma Alex’s mate. She is already a part of our family, now she’ll be a part of our pack. She will receive the title of Gamma female and should be treated with such respect,” Colin states with a clipped tone. “Alex cut into your mate’s palm please.”Paige hands him a small dagger. The handle of it is worn like it’s been used in many ceremonies before ours. His love filled eyes are glued to mine as he slices the knife across my hand. The ache from my splitting skin is overshadowed by the joy I feel. Blood warms the wound as it begins to seep out.“Now, Amber do the same to him, please.”The blade runs through his hand, setting his blood free. I place my bloody palm in his, the mixture of our blood creates a stream of wind around us. Right now, Alex and I are the only two beings in existence. I’m tran
Midnight Sin (A Rejected Mate's Romance) Chapter Eighty-Nine: Amber
Colin clears his throat. “Good evening, everyone. We have a lot to cover tonight so if you’ll all find your seats, we can get started.” He goes silent waiting for the rustling of moving bodies to stop. “First, I’d like to say thank you all for coming tonight. I know tonight comes at a bitter time for some of you. Paige and I are grateful that you could attend. Second, I’d also like to take a moment to thank each of the fallen. We lost a lot of good people during this fight. I know this was something we’d rather not have to endure but their death was not in vain. We defeated the evil and ended its wrathful reign. I hope that brings solace to their souls and that of their families. Please know that Paige and I are prepared to support you in any way you may need. Just reach out.“Now, I’d like for every person who helped us defeat the Midnight Sin clan to stand,” Colin announces.
Midnight Sin (A Rejected Mate's Romance) Chapter Eighty-Eight: Amber
Choosing to stay in Onyx Flame was an easy choice after Paige’s words. I realize that not every pack member is going to be happy about this. In fact, I’m guessing that more will be angry than happy, but this is my home. I’m tired of running from it. “Are you nervous?” Paige asks. “Not really.” “Ah, so I’m on my own with that then.” “Yeah, but you have a good reason.” Paige slides her fingers through my hair, twisting my dark strands into an intricate up-do. I look at her in the mirror. Her hair flows down her back, her body covered in a black dress. She meets my gaze and smiles at me. “You know, I never thought I’d say this but I’m really glad to call yo
Midnight Sin (A Rejected Mate's Romance) Chapter Eighty-Seven: Alex
My smile widens, and Amber’s jaw drops.“Are you sure?”“Absolutely. We couldn’t think of anyone better,” Paige embraces Amber. “And before you ask, yes, we are sure that we want you to be the godmother. We’re not just asking because you’re Alex’s mate either. We’re asking because I want my child to know what true resilience and strength is. You’ve been through hell more times than any of us but you’re still a good person. You’re an amazing person. Please say yes.”“Yes.”An excited laugh leaves Paige. Her body jumps up as if she just won an award.“Paige and I aren’t announcing to everyone else until the banquet. So, you can’t tell anyone! No one else knows,” Colin says.“We’re the first to know? I feel special,” I laugh.
Midnight Sin (A Rejected Mate's Romance) Chapter Eighty-Six: Alex
I meet her eyes as she stands in front of me. Her leg comes out and places a tiny kick to my shin.“There. I hurt you. Happy?”“No. NO. We are not happy. Kick his ass, Amber!” My mother yells.“Really? I’m your son!”She shrugs. “I came for a show.”My mother looks to Amber with a glint in her eye. Amber chuckles before facing me. “I guess I’ll be giving everyone a show then.”A devilish smile covers her face. A shiver of fear spreads over me. Oh, this might be the worst decision I’ve ever made.No, rejecting her was. You deserve this for hurting her and for hurting us, Zeke snarls.Amber’s fist connects with my right eye. Fuck, she can punch
Midnight Sin (A Rejected Mate's Romance) Chapter Eighty-Five: Alex
I blow the steam from my coffee and look at my sleeping mate. It took me hours to get her calmed down last night. When I found her at the swimming hole, she was in tears. She couldn’t even get the words out to tell me what happened. But when she finally did, I was heartbroken for her. Knowing that Linda killed her mother and watching Linda kill her mother are two different types of pain. My tongue recoils to the touch of the still too hot coffee. I jerk the cup from my mouth, spilling a little down my shirt.“Fuck,” I hiss.Amber’s eyes open, finding mine immediately. She sits up, her face still stained from yesterday’s burdens.“Sorry, didn’t mean to wake you.”“It’s time to get up anyways. I have training.”“Oh, okay. Get dressed and I’ll walk you down.”
Midnight Sin (A Rejected Mate's Romance) Chapter Eighty-Four: Amber
I’ve sent most of my kingdom to live safely on the surface, hidden from those who want our lives. It’s just me and my mother left. I’ve been putting off running for so long because I want Troy to choose me. I hate how I’ve pined for him, hoping that on one of my visits, he’ll realize that I’m who he is supposed to be with. All the men that I’ve had in the years since have never come close to what I felt when I was with him. They never will but I have to let this idea of being his go. He’s happy with Linda, and I have to accept that. At least living on the surface, I might get to see Amber more. Amber jumps on my glittering, purple tail. “Always with the tail, my pearl. You have no idea how much I wish I could give you one of your own.” “Mama, look!” Amber hands me a drawing that she made. Me with my purp
