REJECTED, NOW DESIRED CHAPTER 126: PREPARATION
EDNA POVAnsel and I remained frozen, the weight of Seraphina’s revelation crashing down on us like a tidal wave. The enormity of the situation had yet to fully sink in, leaving us both dazed and speechless. Seraphina, my mother, had just revealed a plot that threatened not only our family but the very existence of our kind.Ansel's grip on my hand tightened, grounding me as we tried to process the information. "Black witches... wolf's blood... extinction?" Ansel's voice was barely a whisper, his usual commanding presence overshadowed by the shock."Yes," Seraphina said softly, her voice carrying the heavy burden of truth. "The black witches from the northern part of Titanic Wave are plotting to use the blood of wolves to enhance their magic. They believe that by consuming the essence of the Alpha King, they can magnify their power to unprecedented levels."My heart pounded in my chest, each beat echoing with fear and anger. "But why? What do they gain from this?"Seraphina sighed, he
REJECTED, NOW DESIRED CHAPTER 127: EDRIC?
Ansel and I were in the middle of a strategy meeting when Amos, one of our trusted advisors, burst into the room. His face was ashen, eyes wide with urgency. "Alpha, Luna, you need to come to the pack living house immediately. We have an unexpected guest."Ansel and I exchanged puzzled glances. "Who is it?" Ansel asked, his tone cautious.Amos hesitated, glancing at me with a strange mix of anxiety and apprehension. "It's Edric. He's here with his beta and two warriors."My breath caught in my throat. Edric. The name alone stirred a whirlwind of emotions within me—betrayal, anger, and a deep-seated hurt that I had long since buried. "What does he want?" I managed to ask, my voice steady despite the turmoil inside."He says he needs to speak with you both urgently," Amos replied, looking distinctly uncomfortable. "It sounds serious."Ansel's jaw clenched, his protective instincts flaring. "Let's go," he said, his hand gripping mine as we walked toward the pack living house.The journey
REJECTED, NOW DESIRED CHAPTER 128: THE FURY
As I stormed out of the packhouse, my anger roiled within me like a storm ready to break. The memory of Edric's betrayal, coupled with Ansel's decision to involve him, was more than I could bear. My fists clenched, nails digging into my palms as I felt the wind respond to my fury. The trees around me swayed violently, leaves torn from their branches and swirling through the air. "Edna, calm down! I shouldn't have done that..." Ansel's voice echoed behind me, but it only fueled my rage. "Done what?" A voice, deeper and older, interrupted our confrontation. I turned to see Seraphina standing there, her eyes glowing with an ancient power. "Your eyes are now completely red like blood!" she said, a note of urgency in her tone. "W-what?" I stammered, but before I could comprehend what was happening, the ground beneath us began to tremble. The earth rumbled ominously, and within moments, a violent earthquake erupted. The tremors were so powerful that the packhouse shook, and the sur
REJECTED, NOW DESIRED CHAPTER 129: BETRAYING RAMSEY
THIRD PERSON POVAs dawn broke, the first light of day seeped through the dense forest surrounding the packhouse. Edna had barely slept, her mind a whirlwind of thoughts and emotions. She had decided it was time to confront Ansel about Seraphina's training. Rising from her bed, she dressed quickly and made her way to the packhouse, where she found Ansel already in the courtyard, speaking with Amos and Edric."Ansel," Edna called, her voice steady despite the turmoil inside her. Ansel turned, concern etched on his face."Edna, good morning," he greeted, but the worry in his eyes was clear. "Are you alright?""I need to talk to you," Edna said, glancing at Amos and Edric. Understanding the need for privacy, they nodded and stepped away. "About Seraphina. I need her to train me properly. Yesterday was a wake-up call. I can't afford to lose control like that again."Ansel's expression softened. "I agree. Your power is incredible, but without control, it's dangerous. I'll talk to Seraphin
REJECTED, NOW DESIRED CHAPTER 130: SUDDEN DEATHS
ANSEL POV“It is someone that I think all of us know,” I retorted, walking to the end of the hallway that led back to the dungeon.By the way, I hadn't informed any member of the higher house about the war that my pack and I were planning to start.I had my reasons for keeping it secret. If I did tell them, they would want to know so much: who told me, why I didn't inform the higher house, which made laws for all wolf species. I didn't want Seraphina or my mate's mother subjected to intense interrogation. But now, there was no other way. I couldn't hide it from the higher council anymore. They needed to know who Ramsey really was.But I wouldn't reveal who fed me all the news. They had better just believe me and do something about Ramsey.“Who, and how does he betray us?” “It's Ramsey,” I blurted out. The person on the other side of the phone went quiet for several seconds before clearing his throat.“He has conspired with the black witches to cause havoc for the wolves. Their plan i
REJECTED, NOW DESIRED CHAPTER 131: MEETING MIRIAM AND GRACE AGAIN
EDNA POVImmediately my mate mind-linked me, I knew I needed to do something to help him.He didn't tell me what was going on, but he was my mate. I could feel his anger, his fear, and all his emotions. Apart from that, my senses had become sharper since I met Seraphina, meaning I could already see through him.I knew he didn't just disappear for no reason; he was going to investigate an invasion by the black witches. Though I wasn't sure where exactly.By the way, I had called Seraphina, or my mother, a while ago, and she said she was already on her way and that Ansel had already called her. I just smiled at that. Ansel was so sweet to handle everything for me despite the fact that we had planned for me to call Seraphina while he dealt with the warriors.By the way, it was hard for me to call Seraphina ‘mother.’ I didn't know why, but maybe it was because she had not been in my life all those years. I had been all by myself and had gotten used to it.I quickly rushed towards the dung
REJECTED, NOW DESIRED CHAPTER 132: THE WITCHES
Wow, so Miriam could also submit to me? I thought she was superior.But then again, what if it was because of the torture she had been undergoing?People could do anything to get what they wanted.“Guards!” I called, my voice resonating in the dungeon room.“Luna.” Two guards dressed in matching grey clothes walked up and bowed in front of me.“Unshackle them!” I blurted out without a second thought, and Miriam raised her weak head to look at me.“Y-you are releasing us?” I could hear the shock in her voice. Her eyes, now larger than usual, were wide open, staring at me.“Y-you shouldn't release us! W-we don't deserve to be free after all we did to you. We deserve everything that is happeningto us.”“I also thought that. But I want to release you so that I can own your life.” Miriam continued to look at me in confusion, but I ignored her and turned to the guards.“Do as I have said and make sure they are given food.” The guards were still in shock, but my words spurred them into acti
REJECTED, NOW DESIRED CHAPTER 133: HALF CONFESSION
As Seraphina and I stood in the dim room, the air thick with anticipation, I turned to her, my confusion evident. “Why are they calling you ‘sister’? Do you know them?” I repeated the same question subconsciously.Seraphina smiled gently, her eyes softening at me, “Edna, that's just how witches refer to each other. It's a term of kinship, not necessarily a familial connection. I don't know them but all witches are sisters.”"No! You shouldn't tell her about us! She is the enemy of the witches!" The two invisible witches in the room blurted out but my mother didn't stop.Their words made me feel bad because I was both a witch and a wolf but I didn't dwell on that.What I wanted right now was information to help my mate, nothing else.In fact, I shouldn't care about killers like them.I felt a wave of relief wash over me. “So, it doesn't mean you're related to them?” I asked after pushing back my thoughts and coming to reality.“No, it doesn’t. It’s a way of acknowledging our shared nat

REJECTED, NOW DESIRED CHAPTER 143: HAPPILY FOREVER
“Prepare a feast to celebrate my mother and the fact that we won the battle!” I blurted out suddenly, and all the people around were shocked by my decision.Maybe I was evil. My mother had died, and instead of mourning her, I was preparing for a feast to celebrate.‘No. You are not. That is what she wants you to do. To be happy.’‘Thank you, Serene.’ I had never been so happy with my sassy wolf than today.‘You!’ She shouted, and I laughed.“Okay, a feast to celebrate a new beginning and a new life!” Ansel blurted out, and all the pack members, plus our guests, looked in our direction in shock.“Your queen is expecting an heir.” Maybe they didn't hear when my mother talked about her grandson. I didn't know.“Hail the queen of the Titanic Wave! Hail the queen of the Titanic Wave!” They all chorused, and Ansel helped me up.“Where is Edric? He wasn't at the battle?” I asked as Ansel led me in the direction of the stairs.“Three of his council members died, so he had to go.”“It was my m
REJECTED, NOW DESIRED CHAPTER 141: GOODBYE
In one swift move, I was already on my heels and outside the room as if I wasn’t the one who was unwell. The only thing I could hear now was, ‘My mother!’She would be fine, right? Nothing would happen to her, right?Just a moment ago, we had been together, fighting side by side. What might have happened to her just now?All those thoughts kept replaying in my mind as I ran through the hallway, down the stairs, and into another hallway that led to the living hall. Something popped into my mind and I froze. She had no heart! She was living like a shadow!“Nooo!” I shouted at the top of my lungs as I increased my speed. Right now, I couldn't hear anyone speaking to me. I couldn’t see anyone beside me. All I wanted to see was Seraphina, my mother. Reaching the hall, my eyes started tearing up as I saw the woman on the couch, surrounded by some maids and other people I couldn’t recognize at this moment. I rushed to her and knelt on the floor, closer to the couch.“Baby girl.” She calle
REJECTED, NOW DESIRED CHAPTER 141: VICTORY
The earth heaved, revealing hidden hundreds of witches clad in black, each with the same eerie white cross on their foreheads. Their village, previously hidden by powerful spells, now stood exposed before us.I swallowed hard and turned to Seraphina and she also turned to me."I am so proud of you, I myself didn't know that spell, how did you know it?"I averted my gaze away from her, "I also didn't know how I was able to perform it.""Do you believe that indeed, you were meant to save the wolf's species?" I nodded but the waves of shock rippled through me and by the whispers behind me, I could sense the shock in all of my people too.I could also sense the astonishment in the eyes of the soldiers and our allies. If not for the witches' attacks, we would have passed by this hidden stronghold, unaware of the danger lurking within.The witches, realising their concealment had failed, quickly regrouped. Forming a tight circle, they clasped hands and began chanting. Their voices rose in
REJECTED, NOW DESIRED CHAPTER 140: THE FIELD OF BLOOD
EDNA POVMy breath came in shallow bursts as the trucks rumbled towards the witches' territory. It was time, time to pat back to the wiches for what they did to our brothers and sisters.I glanced around at my companions: Seraphina, her trusted confidante, sat beside her, while Coline lounged in the corner with an air of detachment. I had decided to suppress the need to ask her what she meant earlier because I could already see through her that she thought I was weak and that maybe, I used my beauty to be Ansel's mate.Silly her to judge me like that.How stupid was he to forget that there were also fate? That I was Ansel's fated mate?Indeed some people could be crazy and mad."Stay alert," Ansel's voice crackled over the radio-like. "We’re close."Immediately after I heard that, my heart started pounding in my chest. Suddenly, a loud screech filled the air as the lead truck swerved violently. What was going on?I turned my eyes in a bullet pace in front as we were at the top of
REJECTED, NOW DESIRED CHAPTER 139: LADY COLINE, THE DEMON
Edna's hands trembled slightly as she tightened the last strap of her armour.The preparations had been very tiresome to both of them, leaving her no time to question Ansel about the unfamiliar figures who had arrived earlier. Now, as everything was done, curiosity gnawed at her and she couldn't be silent anymore.She moved quietly through the hall towards her mate, Ansel, her mind focused on the impending battle but unable to shake her curiosity. Ansel was conferring with a group of warriors when she approached him. She leaned in close, her voice a soft whisper."Ansel, who were those two men and the woman with King Roshan earlier?"Ansel's eyes widened momentarily in realisation. He turned to her, a sheepish smile on his lips. "I am sorry, my love. I should have introduced them to you. Ooh no, why have I forgotten to do that and you are the qeen of wolves? You should be aware of who they are." He raised his voice, catching the attention of the mysterious guests."STEVE?" Ansel cal
REJECTED, NOW DESIRED CHAPTER 138: WE ARE HAVING A PUP
Ansel sighed, his eyes softening as he looked at Edna. "I have to check on the warriors and make sure the cars are ready for our departure."Edna’s eyes narrowed, her jaw tightening. She threw off the pink robe, walked to the wardrobe, and pulled out a pair of trousers and a blue shirt. With quick, angry motions, she dressed herself, her movements sharp and agitated."Do you think I’m weak?" she shouted, her voice trembling with emotion. "Is that why you want me to sleep while you go and prepare for the war with your men?"Ansel stepped towards her, his hands raised in a placating gesture. "No, Edna. You need rest for tomorrow. It’s not because I think you’re weak. You’re anything but that. How could you even conclude that?"Tears welled up in Edna’s eyes, and she cried, her shoulders shaking with the force of her sobs. Ansel was taken aback, shocked by her sudden burst of emotions. He rushed to her and hugged her from behind, murmuring sweet words into her ear.This woman was everyt
REJECTED, NOW DESIRED CHAPTER 137: A PLEASURABLE MOMENT
Ansel tenderly tucked a loose strand of hair behind Edna's ear, his touch gentle and reassuring. "I’m ready for the war," he murmured, his voice steady and confident. "Especially after what I have witnessed today, it's high time I do anything to avenge the wolves that lost their lives and also to stop this ones and for all."He then softened his gaze at her and added, "Thank you for trying to get information from those witches. I didn't expect you would do that alone to help me."Edna looked away, her shoulders slumping slightly. "I wish I could have gotten more. We need every advantage we can get."Ansel shook his head, lifting her chin so she would meet his eyes carefully. "What you found out is enough. You’re the most hardworking Luna this pack has ever had. The most courageous queen of Titanic Wave. And the first to be its queen, what else could I ask for feom the goddess? I have everything in you."A faint smile touched Edna's lips, though it didn't quite reach her eyes. "You’re
REJECTED, NOW DESIRED CHAPTER 136: SOPHIA, THE ONE SURVIVOR
Ansel and Amos reached the packhouse in the middle of the night, their hearts heavy with the events of the day.Everything just happened fast. And as the days passed, many of their people were dying and Ansel just hoped that the higher house that made laws for all creatures would notice this and help him before it was too late.He could deal with everything himself but as law makers and people who pretended to be holy according to Ansel, they were supposed to open their eyes and see that the wolf species were at risk.But again, Ansel was aware who those people were. They were just corrupt beasts who were a bunch of good for nothing, lazy people who depended on others for information.Ansel ousted back those annoying thoughts then turned to the packhouse in front of him.The packhouse stood tall and silent, the moon casting long shadows over its wooden structure.Ansel moved with purpose, his grip on Sophia gentle yet firm as he carried her into a room adjacent to Jack's.At the time,
REJECTED, NOW DESIRED CHAPTER 135: MASS MURDER
THIRD PERSON POV Ansel and Amos moved swiftly through the dense forest, their powerful legs propelling them forward as they leapt over fallen trees and navigated the rugged terrain. Their wolves had taken over and they were like beasts now, very huge and powerful with furs all over their bodies and claw-like fingers. The night air was thick with tension, and the moon cast an eerie glow on their path and on their wolf nature, causing them to be more powerful than before. After all, wolves were creatures we depended mostly on the moon to give them strength. Ansel’s mind was a storm of rage and sorrow, the news of the slaughter weighing heavily on his heart. The black witches had gone too far. How could they so heartless to kill over twenty wolves? That was mass murder and Ansel as the King of wolves, he needed to act swift. Or else, his people would suffer the consequences. When they finally reached the village, the scene that greeted them was one of unspeakable horror. The onc
