REJECTED: Hired to Breed AT THE DINNER PARTY 2
KILLIAN This was all acting, and I do not like Karla because of the way she crashed into my life. I knew she was manipulating me; most women manipulate men like me. I have met a lot of women like her—gold diggers and girls hungry for fame and power, who believe they can do anything. I know all the innocence she displayed was temporary. I knew her game plan, which is why I am being cautious about everything. We can never do anything without signing it on paper, so when she wants to go haywire, I bring up these million-dollar lawsuits that would make her shut up. Everything was working in my favour. Well, except for one thing. The mate bond. I thought I had played enough to be able to resist the mate bond. I feel drawn to her, even though I refuse to admit it to myself. My inner wolf has been a prick, getting all excited and jealous around her. I had been angry with her and Colby from the moment Colby complimented her looks. He seemed to be gravitating towards her, and it made me
REJECTED: Hired to Breed FIGHTING FOR AN OMEGA
AUTHOR'S P.O.V. Karla got into the restroom to take a deep breath and calm herself. She looked at herself in the mirror. Jenny did an excellent job of transforming her. Two women came into the restroom; they were werewolves and could perceive her scent. She looked away from them, pretending not to even hear what they were talking about. "This place stinks; do you know the cause?" One of the ladies said, looking around. Karla turned on the faucet and put her hands under the running water, trying so hard to ignore the mockery from the women. One of the women snorted and put her hand over her nose. She watched them from the corners of her eyes as they muttered inaudible things to themselves. She knew they were talking about her, and if only Ana was here, she would have told them off. She ignored the ladies as they cast hateful stares at her, speaking in hushed tones. Everywhere she went, scandal followed her. "Is she not the Omega that Alpha Killian came with?" one of the women as
REJECTED: Hired to Breed WE ARE GETTING MARRIED
KARLA Alpha Killian was walking so fast and dragging me along. The heels itched, and I was finding it difficult to keep them on my feet. I whimpered in pain as I missed my step. "Please, slow down," I pleaded.He stopped and turned to look at me. I saw the anger in his eyes and wondered if he was mad at me. He looked around the garage but did not say anything to me. Colby has already brought the car around, and it was already open. Alpha Killian shoved me into the car and got in after me. I was tensed as he got in. He was angry with me, but why?As if he read my mind, he turned to me. "You had to ruin everything. Just one minute, I left you, and you are off with another man." Colby ignited the car and drove it out of the garage. My mouth fell open. Did he think I invited that man to the bathroom? "I did not—" "You did not what? I saw you entertaining him, and then you walked off to the bathroom, making him follow. Why must you entertain him? You are carrying m
REJECTED: Hired to Breed HURT
KILLIAN I paced about the kitchen with a glass of whisky. This cannot be. I do not know what got into me earlier. I would like to convince myself that it was acting, but deep down, I felt the rush. This was nothing; it was only the mate bond working on me. I can never accept an Omega as a mate. I can never fall in love. I will never love anyone like that. I downed the glass of whisky and poured it again, and my mind wandered to the events that had happened earlier. Karla was timid most of the night, but when she smiled, it was contagious, and I remembered that a warm sensation filled my chest. When we kissed, my body responded to hers in a way it had never done before with a woman. The feeling went beyond lust, and I do not like it. I poured myself another glass of wine and drank it in one go. She was in the room changing up, while I was down here in the kitchen, afraid to go into my own room for fear of doing something I might regret later. She was a seductress, and the mate
REJECTED: Hired to Breed STAND UP FOR YOURSELF
AUTHOR P.O.V. Delores stared at the tablet, flipping through the pages and looking at the pictures of Killian and Karla. She sighed and dropped the tablet on the desk. She tapped her foot. "An Omega," she muttered. "An Omega. How on earth did he get together with this Omega?" She leaned back on her chair and held her head. "What is this? Put me through. Call Killian right away."The man who gave her the report called Killian's line. Killian answered at the second ring. Delores took the phone from him and put it to her ear. "Killian Cabello, what is this nonsense I am hearing? Tell me this is all a sick joke." "This is not, Mom, Killina's drowsy voice said from the other end. "An Omega?" Delores said it almost in a whisper. "Yes, an Omega, Mom. This is my life, and our wedding is coming up soon." "You will not marry that girl. It is over my dead body."Killian sighed. "I am sorry, Mom. You and everyone would have to deal with this because she is the
REJECTED: Hired to Breed LULLABY
KILLIAN I watched her from the window as the car moved out of the compound. She was crying, and Jenny was consoling her. "Pathetic," I muttered. My lips were saying one thing, but my heart was saying another. I do not know if I were too harsh to her, but I had to be so that she would not develop any type of feeling for me. My head is a jumble right now, and my heart is in turmoil. I was beginning to reconsider everything going on. Why had I agreed to marry her at first? I met her as a stripper in my club, and soon people would begin to recognize her, and that was not good publicity for the business. I sighed, relaxed in the chair, and threw my head back, resting it on the headrest. I shut my eyes to meditate a little. Something was drawing me to her, and I did not like it. She makes me feel what I have never felt for any woman before. I was confused. Confusion was never a feeling for me. I have always known what I want and what I do not want. 'That is because she
REJECTED: Hired to Breed FIGHTING HIS FEELINGS
KILLIAN The mansion was quiet when I got back. I have been busy since the morning and just wrapped up in the office. Karla was not in the room when I got there, and my heart skipped a little. Where was she? All I had thought about today was her, even though I wanted to put thoughts of her behind me. Had I been too harsh on her? Did she leave? I cautioned myself as I was about to go to the door to look for her. What am I doing? She is only an omega, and I am the Alpha. Why will I go after her? Why am I looking for her? I went back to the room and unbuttoned my shirt. I searched the closet and still found her belongings in it. I felt a little relief that she did not leave.Why am I feeling this way? Karla is driving me crazy.I showered and laid on the bed, ready to sleep off and forget everything about her, but after a few minutes, I found myself tossing in bed, unable to sleep, her thoughts still heavy on my mind.Convincing myself that I was concerned about the b
REJECTED: Hired to Breed ON YOUR KNEES
KARLA Three days had passed, and Alpha Killian still had not returned to the mansion. My worry for him grew by the hour, mingling with a gnawing fear that I had somehow done something wrong. Our wedding plans were falling into place, and he was supposed to be here, not elsewhere. I should have been relieved that he was not here to torment me, but instead, I was deeply unsettled. He had not even bothered answering or returning my calls. Jenny, however, kept assuring me that he was fine. I had grown closer to Jenny over these few days and noticed she was hiding something from everyone. She would always startle whenever someone walked in on her, and occasionally, she would zone out. When I inquired about it, she would just wave it off or laugh it away. Strangely enough, Colby was also nowhere to be found, making me suspect that something unknown and imminent was looming. I despised this uneasy feeling. My phone rang abruptly, pulling me from my thoughts. I rushed to the nightstand a

REJECTED: Hired to Breed LOVE AND AFFECTION
KARLA "Let me get this straight. It was all fake?" Ana asked, staring steadily at me. I nodded, and the expression on her face deepened my guilt. I had been longing to share the complete truth with Ana for quite some time, but I hesitated, fearing she would cause trouble and what Killian might do. So, two days after Killian confessed his love for me and treated me like a princess, I scheduled an appointment with Ana, determined to reveal everything. Ana let out a sarcastic chuckle and averted her gaze. "I can't believe you kept this from me, Karlee." "Ana, I am truly sorry. I couldn't bring myself to tell you due to the seriousness of the situation." I reached across the table to grasp Ana's hand, but she withdrew it. "I am very disappointed in you. How could you hide something like this? I have been there for you since day one. How could you even think of doing that?" "Ana, please, I said I am sorry. It wasn't planned; besides, I know how impulsive you can be.
REJECTED: Hired to Breed HEART TO HEART
KARLA I stirred, yawned, and stretched those three to four seconds of morning grace before reality hit me. My eyes snapped open, and I glanced to the other side of the bed, finding it empty. Panic welled up as I recalled the events of the morning after our first night together. Killian was absent from the bed, meaning he was awake and waiting to yell at me for seducing him again. Slowly, I sat up, grateful he wasn't in the room. I threw off the blanket, ready to put on my slippers, when the door swung open, and Killian entered, carrying a tray. His smile stirred my heart, leaving me in awe. I watched, unsure if I was still asleep and dreaming or if I was fully awake. "You are awake, sleepyhead," he said, setting the tray on the nightstand. I was still in shock and merely stared at him. He smiled at me again, aware of my uncertainty. "I made you breakfast; you must be tired after taking care of me last night." I was too stunned to respond. I never thought a day when Ki
REJECTED: Hired to Breed SURRENDER
KARLA Killian did not return until Jenny woke up. She had gained some strength and insisted on going back to Cabello's house in the city, despite my pleas for her to stay at the villa in the country with me, but she wasn't ready to face Killian just yet and needed to be with Chloe. Jenny assured me she was fine and urged me not to worry about her. One of Killian's men escorted me back to our country house, where our honeymoon was meant to take place. Flora had prepared dinner upon my arrival, but I had lost my appetite due to the day's events, so I headed straight for the shower. As the water cascaded down my body, I recalled the events of the day, especially Killian's emotional breakdown, wondering if our relationship could ever be normal. I couldn't comprehend why he was so conflicted. But I would have to endure this emotional turmoil until our pup was born and had resolved not to expect anything from Killian until after the birth; then, I would move on with my life. I was gratef
REJECTED: Hired to Breed ALPHA'S BREAKDOWN
KARLA I stood in the corner of the private ward where Jenny was put, watching Killian pace up and down the room, frustrated and furious. I could imagine his surprise finding out that his cousin, whom he loved so much, was dying soon and the hurt he felt that she kept it a secret from him. When he turned to face me, I could swear I saw his eyes glistening. I wanted to reach out, take his hand and comfort him, but I could not get the courage. I was still not sure of our stand after my outburst. "Why didn't you tell me?" he asked. "I... I don't think it was in my place to tell. She wanted to keep it a secret, so—" "Until when?!" he barked, making me flinch. I could not blame him for breaking down like this. I had been shattered, too, when I found out about Jenny's sickness, and Killian had known her all his life. According to Jenny, they grew up together, and Killian saw her as nothing other than a sister. "Killian I am sorry that she kept it a se
REJECTED: Hired to Breed HIS WARMTH
KILLIAN "Fuck!" I cursed and bolted from my seat. "I will kill that bastard with my bare hands." "Is everything alright?" Colby inquired, coming after me. I felt like breaking down in the middle of the bar. What was Chase doing with Jenny and Karla? I knew he did not run into them. He followed them; he was stalking Karla and knew exactly what he was doing. "Alpha Killian, can you tell me what is going on?" "That bastard Chase is with my mate and cousin. He has them in his car. I swear, I will kill him if I ever lay my eyes on him. Get the car ready and take me to Graceland." "That is like one hour, fifteen minutes from here." "Do you think I don't know that?" "But you have Jayden following them." I had totally forgotten that I asked one of my men to follow them. Jayden was a strong warrior but couldn't defeat several of Chase's men. As I walked towards the car, Jayden sent me a message. He was updating me on their whereabouts. It turned
REJECTED: Hired to Breed BASH AND CHASE
KILLIAN Colby sat quietly across from me in the bar, watching me gulp down one of the several bottles on the table. When he couldn't take seeing me wasted any longer, he grabbed the bottle from me. "Alpha Killian, what happened?" "I have called Angelo; he will be here in a moment," I said, waving him off and searching for another bottle to down. "I am sure if you wanted to speak to Angelo alone, you would never call me. The last time I saw you like this was—" "Stop." I knew what he wanted to say and was not ready to hear it. "What happened at home?" he asked, staring me straight in my eyes. I eyed him and looked away. Sometimes, I wondered how Colby was able to read me so well. It annoyed me, but he always offered me great solutions, especially when Angelo was too busy with his toys to attend to me. "It's Karla," I mumbled loud enough for Colby to hear. "What about her? Is she opting out of the contract? You only got married yesterday
REJECTED: Hired to Breed OUTBURST
AUTHOR'S P.O.V. For the first time since Karla got to know Killian, he was speaking to her like his wife and not some crazy slut. She also noticed the slight change in his behaviour towards her and wondered if the meeting with Alpha Chase could be a factor. Alpha Chase was sad news, and she wondered what he said to Killian at the wedding. Now, Killian's eyes were trailed on her, and since he already assumed she slept with men for money, she knew what was going on in his head. She shrugged casually. "He is the Alpha of my pack," she replied cautiously. "And?" "I already told you; my father owed him before he died. That is the reason I am here in the first place." "There is no other contract between you two." He said it as a statement, but she knew he wanted an answer. He bit into his breakfast. "No. I do not even know him in person. The wedding was the first place I met him. Did... did he say something else?" He chewed his food but shook his
REJECTED: Hired to Breed THE FIRE SHE BRINGS
KARLA Dinner went awfully quiet. Sadness hovered over the table like ripe peaches. I was not happy because of what I had just learned about Jenny a few minutes ago. Chloe was moody when she was not playing, and it seemed Ana just flowed with the mood around the table. I was the first to leave the dinner table because I already lost my appetite and picked my food throughout dinner. If I had stayed there a little longer, Ana would undoubtedly have figured out what was going on with me. I told them a lie about having a strange headache, which Ana believed was from the wedding stress. She let me know that she would be leaving for college first thing the following day. When I got to our room, I cried some more before sleep stole me away. The next time I awoke was when Killian came back. I pretended not to notice and worried he would flare up when he sees me in his shirt. I slept off again, sometime when he was in the shower and was awoken again when the other part of the b
REJECTED: Hired to Breed I AM DYING
KARLA Jenny stood there staring in the mirror with a tear-stricken face. However, it was not her tears that made me crumble inwardly; it was the baldness of her head. Jenny was completely bald. My legs stayed glued to the ground; I could not go back nor come in further as uncontrollable tears streamed down my cheeks. Jenny sniffed and wiped her eyes with the back of her palm. “Well…will you stand there all day and look at me, or will you come in here and get what you want?” she asked, not turning to look at me. “Jenny,” I cried, walking towards her and enveloping her in a warm embrace. She held me back and let her emotions overcome her once more. We wept together for a while before she pulled away from me. I was not sure I had cried this bitterly in my life before. My chest was heavy, and she was not even my relative. Jenny was a strong woman. She helped me sit on her bed and consoled me until I got a grip on myself. I have wanted to cry this long
