REJECTED: CLAIMED BY THE ALPHA MAFIA Sugar Rush
Zane:I barely get any sleep through the night. Although it’s my decision for us to stay apart, my mind is weak, and I want nothing more than to stay with her, but I know it’s for the best.When I’m tired of tossing about on the bed, I open my eyes and reach for my phone on the nightstand to check the time.“Six,” I mutter, then I lazily drop my phone back, pressing my head onto the bed.I try to fall asleep again, but after ten minutes, I sit up, glancing between Kiara’s peaceful figure on the bed and her untouched flowers. As I stare at her, I want to run my hands over her smooth skin, but I don’t want to disturb her.“Someday we will be happy,” I say in a low tone, then let out a sigh, grabbing my phone.I open my contacts and go to Mindy. Without giving it a second thought, I block her number, then delete it. I know I should have done it a long time ago.“Zane?” Kiara’s voice is low, and I turn to face her.“You’re up.” She watches me without saying a word, then I reach for her ha

Kiara:Zane leaving makes me feel unsafe. I don’t know what it is, but I have this uncertainty in my chest, like something terrible is about to happen. The last time I felt this way, something terrible did happen, and I walked in on my best friend with my husband. Maybe it’s a trauma response. As I lie on his chest with his hands wrapped around my waist, I feel safe, and the world around me quiets.“I love you,” he says in a gruff tone as he plants a kiss on my forehead.“I love you too,” I reply, kissing his chest and placing my face on it, allowing the rhythm of his heartbeat to echo in my ears.Slowly, I run my index finger along the contours of his chest, making my way up to the dip of his collarbones. Then I slide my hand to his left cheek, cupping it gently. For a moment, I feel the softness of his cheek under my hand, gliding back and forth as I intertwine my fingers into his beard. His hands on my body move lower, cupping my butt, and they keep going lower to my thighs. He tra

Kiara:Waking up this morning is one of the worst things on my list for the day. I do not want to wake up to the emptiness that Zane’s absence causes, but I know I cannot remain in bed forever. After a while, I cannot stand the taste in my mouth. So, I open my eyes to the bare bed. I run my hands on it, taking a deep breath to quiet my aching heart.Last night I cry myself to sleep, and now I do not have any tears left to give, so I sit up at once, causing my jaw to drop as I spot a basket of Golden-Rayed Lilies in my room. Last time, he bought a variety of lilies, and I do not touch them until they were taken away.I push myself out of bed at once, rushing towards the table in front of me, then I see a note attached to the flowers.“To the girl with a golden smile, who walked into my life and knocked down all my barriers in the most beautiful way.”My belly flutters at once, and I get that instant feeling of butterflies. I lift the basket in my hand, taking in the scent of the flower

THIRD PERSON POV: “I just got back after being away for like a year, and boy, everything is changing. There are more cars in the city now, and I can feel the air slowly getting contaminated,” the lady said then, and Kiara sucked on the straw, drawing more of the coconut juice into her mouth before setting it down. “I feel like I get you.” The woman looked at her with her brows wrinkled when she made the statement, then it dawned on her that Kiara was new. “You are not from here, are you?” she asks, and Kiara glances at Rufus, who is across the street, standing like a statue, with his eyes on her. She looks away, then faces her drink. “Not really. I just moved, and I plan to settle here,” she says in a low tone, then the woman spread her hands. “Well, welcome to Efla. The most jolly city on the planet, and probably the healthiest. Being to a big city made me hate my life, but I was away for work,” she says as the stall owner places her drink on the counter. She grabs it and tak

THIRD PERSON POV:Mindy’s plan is to get close to Kiara, and maybe find her way into Zane’s life, but knowing Zane has proposed to another woman drives her insane. When she was with Zane, she probed him about his desire to settle with her, but he was never straight with her. The fact he has moved on and she cannot tear her down.“He is mine!” she says aloud as the taxi comes to a halt.The driver glances at her through the rearview mirror, and she looks at him with her brows drawn down.“And what are you looking at?” she asks in a vile tone, opening the door and getting out. Then she reaches for her purse, tossing the money into his car before walking off.As she walks into her apartment, she slams the door shut, letting out a loud scream of frustration as she crashes to the floor. Her heart is racing, and all she can think of is how to get rid of Kiara. Just thinking of her makes her angry, and a part of her wishes Kiara was ugly, but she is pretty. She thinks of what to do, then sud

THIRD PERSON POV:The Lunar Shadow pack hasn’t been the same since Kiara left. Although people try to find joy in their new Luna, she is quite different from Kiara. She never attends to their needs as Kiara would, and all she does is walk alongside Alpha Blake, refusing to take any responsibilities.“I really miss Luna Kiara, and I wonder if she is alright,” Isabella says, coming to a halt with the long broom in hand.Her friend Ursula sighs too.“I wish I could find my way out of this pack without being punished or hunted by rogue wolves,” she whispers to Isabella as she continues sweeping near the gate of the Alpha’s mansion.“If she were here, I wouldn’t have to labor under the sun, but I’d choose this over serving that imposter,” Isabella scoffs.“Oh, don’t we just miss Kiara,” someone says, and they both stop talking, turning to see Mindy, dressed in a red flare gown.They both stare at her like they’ve seen a ghost, causing her to roll her eyes.“Where is your Luna?” Mindy asks,

THIRD PERSON POV:Kiara wakes up on the fourth day of their break to find a basket of Madonna Lillie’s. A smile forms across her face as she dashes out of bed, grabbing the basket to read the note attached to it.“To the woman I want to have my kids with, and the woman I will love till eternity,” she reads out loud.She doesn’t wait for Rufus to knock today, and she rushes to the door, opening it to see Rufus with his phone. She grabs it from him.“Good morning, baby,” Zane’s gruff tone comes from the phone, causing her belly to flutter.“Good morning,” she says.“So, did you sleep well?” he asks, and she lets out a chuckle.“Like a baby.”“Like my baby,” he adds, causing her to grin widely. “It’s day four already, and we only have ten days until we’re together. I can’t wait,” he says, and she goes silent for a moment.She reflects on the past few days, especially when she threw a tantrum on Sunday, struggling to believe she could spend two weeks without him.“Did I say something wron

THIRD PERSON POV:One would think the phrase “if you want something done, do it yourself” is BS, but after Mindy’s attempts to get either Kiara or Veronica to play on her team fail, she decides it is best to work alone.“I should have done this myself,” she grumbles as the taxi comes to a halt in front of the road leading to the Alpha’s mansion.She makes her way down the road, hoping to find Isabella. It is a good thing she has someone willing to throw Veronica under the bus, making it easier for her to gain access to the house.Upon reaching the gate, she finds Isabella and Ursula sweeping, as they were two days ago.Ursula spots Mindy first, then says to Isabella, “She is here again.”This causes Isabella to pause with the broom in hand, turning to face Mindy, who smiles at her. Isabella doesn’t return the smile, remembering Mindy’s words vividly. She hates Kiara, so she has no choice but to hate Mindy, too.“Do not tell me you are angry about our little conversation from last time

REJECTED: CLAIMED BY THE ALPHA MAFIA Together
Zane:It’s been five months since the passing of my father. It hasn’t been easy coping without him, and it made me realize that you never really grow up, and you will always need your parents, regardless. But thank God I found Kiara. I have never been more grateful for the day we met. She has been nothing short of supportive.Nothing beats having the sexiest and smartest woman you know as your support system. Given all the events of the past, we both enrolled in therapy to work through the trauma we’ve experienced. We made the vow that our children would never know what this feels like.“You’re still working?” I hear Kiara say, and I lift my head to see her standing by the door of the study.I sigh, and she walks into the room. Pushing my seat back from the table, I make space for her to sit on my lap, and then she throws her arms around my neck.“If you keep working like this, then we will never have time for each other,” she says as she cups my cheek. “I know building from scratch i
REJECTED: CLAIMED BY THE ALPHA MAFIA Funeral
Kiara:The past few days have been trying for everyone around us with the passing of Boris and Rufus’s injury. Rufus got better after a few days, but he is still at the hospital. Zane transferred him to a hospital in Efla.Today is Boris’s funeral, and Zane has been mute the entire day. We are back at Boris’s place with the entire family present.“You are doing just fine,” I say to Zane, who has been sitting for hours without a word. The thoughts of my pack members going into exile hurt, but I have learned to let go.I have lost once, and it is easier letting go instead of hurting yourself.“Kiara,” Zane calls out to me, and I place a hand on his shoulder.He tilts his head a bit, resting it in my hands. Then I caress his other cheek with my free hand. We remain like that until he lets out a forced gasp, straightening his head. His eyes are reddened, and it hurts.“The ceremony is in half an hour, and you need to get yourself together, please.” I sit close to him, sliding my hands to
REJECTED: CLAIMED BY THE ALPHA MAFIA I killed him
Kiara:“Rufus!” Zane yells the moment Mindy’s bullet hits him.I crash to the ground at once, pulling Rufus’ head onto my lap. I rip a piece of my dress, applying pressure on the wound, trying to stop the bleeding. He has a smile on his face, but his eyes are slowly shutting.“Rufus, stay with me,” I say, tapping his face. “You cannot die on me, not now, you idiot! Stop smiling!” I yell at him.Without giving it a second thought, Zane rushes towards Mindy, digging his hand into her chest. Blood trickles down his hands, then he pulls out her heart, and I watch Mindy crash to the ground.“Zane.” His name is the last thing she mutters before she dies.My body feels weak, but I manage to hold on to Rufus as I keep tapping on him. Zane tosses Mindy’s heart away, and he walks up to us, then he takes off his shirt completely.Preparing a potion for Rufus wasn’t the best idea at the moment, because he was human, and he couldn’t wait that long. Plus, the entire mansion is in ruins, so the herb
REJECTED: CLAIMED BY THE ALPHA MAFIA The Fight
THIRD PERSON POV:Zane storms through the gates of the Lunar Shadow Pack with Yusuf’s werewolf warriors at his back. The early morning air fills with growls, gunfire, and the clash of weapons. The pack’s warriors are caught off guard, scrambling to respond to the ruthless assault. Yusuf’s mutants tear through the defenders like a storm. Everything is going according to Zane’s plan, and they have taken the pack unaware.Zane moves like a shadow—swift and merciless—cutting down anyone who dares to stand in his way. His wolf, desperate to reunite with its mate, takes sole control of Zane, feeding him with power he doesn’t even know he possesses.Blake stands in the midst of his warriors, overlooking the chaos.“How did they breach the gates?” he barks at his men, who are as confused as he is.“We don’t know, Alpha!” one guard shouts back, dodging as a mutant slashes through another warrior beside him. “They came out of nowhere!”Blake’s mind races as he calculates his options. He knows Z
REJECTED: CLAIMED BY THE ALPHA MAFIA Mindy is Dead?
Kiara:Those words from Isabella’s lips bring relief to my chest, but I’m not quite satisfied. I want to see for myself if it is truly true. If Mindy is really dead.“You do not look happy,” Isabella says as she notices my face hasn’t lit up with a victory smile.“Because Mindy is very cunning, and I have to see for myself.” I yank my hands off hers. “Where is she?” I ask, moving forward until I get to the stairs to see the living area swarmed with servants.The murmur in the room starts to die off as they notice my presence, and soon, they slip away bit by bit. But then I spot James.“What is going on here, James?” I call out to him from where I am standing on the landing of the stairs. He is about to answer when Blake walks into the room, and the moment he spots me, his countenance changes.“Why is the queen in a nightdress?” he questions, but I notice his gaze is on Isabella and not on me. “Do you not know how to do your duties anymore, or do you want me to demote you?” His tone co
REJECTED: CLAIMED BY THE ALPHA MAFIA It Worked
Kiara:Messing with a Luna is one thing, but messing with a Luna in her own pack is another. It isn’t just a regular misstep, and Mindy’s judgment is probably clouded by her desires to get Zane, forgetting that I can end her life before she even dreams of waking tomorrow. I don’t know what Zane is up to, but after successfully keeping him out, I know I can act as I please before he decides to wage war against me. Mindy’s audacity truly needs to be studied because her witch powers should be bright enough to warn her that I’ve been in and out of her mother’s lair.“Prepare some baskets and umbrellas,” I say to Isabella, who stares at me in confusion. “We have some fruits to pick.” I wink at her, and she bows slightly, making her way out of my room.I walk to my closet to pick out an outfit and put on one of my best Luna dresses. By the time I’m done dressing, Isabella is back with the baskets and an enormous umbrella.“Let’s go.”We leave the room, making our way to the front yard, wher
REJECTED: CLAIMED BY THE ALPHA MAFIA Do as I say
KIARA:It is unbelievable that I have to wake up in this pack again. I want to claw at my skin and rip it open, but that would be to the fun of Mindy. As I lie in bed, I beg the Moon Goddess to allow us to cross paths. The amount of hate brewing in my heart feels strong enough to torch down an entire continent, and I plan to channel that energy into Mindy. The only good thing about being in this pack is that it makes me feel powerful again, and power can be either good or bad.“Ma’am,” I hear Isabella’s voice from the hallway before she places a light knock on the door.Isabella has been my faithful servant, just like Ariana, so I am trying my best to be gentle with her since she hasn’t done anything wrong.“Come in,” I say, and she opens the door, walking in. She shuts it and gives me a bow.“You do not need to do that every time,” I tell her. She stands straight as soon as I say this.“Alpha Blake asked me to help prepare you,” she says, and my brow scrunches at her words.“Prepare
REJECTED: CLAIMED BY THE ALPHA MAFIA The Queen is Back
Kiara:The ride was bumpy, and sitting in the back of the car with Blake didn’t feel the same anymore. My heart is heavy and aching as memories of Zane flood in. I don’t know what the Moon Goddess plans to do, but I silently pray to her to make things right. It’s hard to believe she made Zane and me cross paths just for things to go sour.“You’ve been awfully quiet,” Blake says, sliding his hand onto my thigh, jolting me back to reality. All I feel from his touch is coldness.I reach for his hand, placing it on the space between us on the seat. Then I turn my face toward the window, taking in the scenery before us. We’re currently at the location of the Elysian Whisper Hill—the road where I ran into Zane when he pretended to be a delivery man. I shut my eyes, taking deep breaths, hoping to wake up from this nightmare. The thought of Blake and me never finding love scares me, but what scares me more is the impending war. I don’t want anyone to die—not now, never.“We’re here, darling,”
REJECTED: CLAIMED BY THE ALPHA MAFIA Mine to Kill
Zane’s POV:Yusuf grabs my shoulder as he continues to laugh.“Your offer is enticing, brother, but isn’t that a little too much?” he asks, and I try to maintain my cool. “Have you forgotten where you came from? A lonely wolf boy who came into my father’s home to steal my birthright.”Those words hit me like a punch to my gut, but I keep my mind focused by thinking of Kiara. All I want is to rescue her and hold her in my arms once more. I should have listened and stayed back because maybe we would be at our new place now, where Mindy would never know. They say what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, and I want to hold on to that. But I don’t know if this will be the thing that ends me.When I don’t react to his taunts, his face straightens, his eyes locking on mine.“I will give you half of the money. Then I’ll keep half, take the empire, and you can borrow my men—whom you will return.” When he says this, I don’t think twice.“We have a deal,” I say, and the corner of his lips lifts
