Stacey gaped at Dylan, swiping both her palms across her body to emphasize her overall appearance, slurring with her words, “What? I’m sultry, beautiful, and young! Any guy would die just to have me.

Dylan, on the other hand, was no longer amused by it. Instead, he pinned her with a hard stare and a loud sigh of disappointment, calling the girl with her real name.

“Stacy.”

The girl abruptly stood stiffly, aware that Dylan was now taking a deadly serious tone. It was like all the alcohol fled from her system.

“Yeah, right. I’m sorry.” She mumbles, lowering her head. Felling kind of disappointed with herself as well.

“I’m cutting your allowance.” After a moment of self-deliberation, Dylan came to a decision on how he would discipline his adopted daughter for her delinquent behavior.

“No buts. That’s final.”

“Dy,” her voice suddenly softens, knowing that she couldn't alter his decision,

“I can’t wait till I’m eighteen.”

“Yeah? Still two years from now, potato.” He scoffed

  • Rejected Billionaire Alpha   Chapter 8: Blazing Fury

    Dylan wiped his palm over his face and heaved out a deep sigh. There’s still a lot of things that are needed to be done in his works. There were documents that needed to be signed, as well as proposals that required his attention. He took his phone from the desk and scrolled through the latest news for a while until eventually coming across one in which hundreds of refugees had arrived in their states seeking asylum after the war erupted in their home country. A recorded feed showed on the news, covering the people boarding on a military aircraft, but what draws his attention to the news broadcast was when the camera pans over a familiar woman who was following the stretcher and carrying a body bag on top of it, which he recognized from a previous encounter on the alley. She seemed to be crying. Her face was somewhat pixelated on the screen for being Zoomed in on the camera, but Dylan knew her. He skimmed the lines below the headlines. According to the report, an elderly woman di

  • Rejected Billionaire Alpha   Chapter 9: Strange Man

    Rachel remembered his physique. Though she hadn't seen his face, Yurielle knew that it was him. The man that turned into a wolf. Out from the dim illumination, she could see the gleaming pair of his sharp canine, the tip of his bloodied razor claws. It was real, the beast she thought was a figment of her imagination was real, and she didn’t just see things out of hunger. Slowly, he strode closer to her. Her heart pounded hard on her chest in fear at the thought that this would be the last moment of her life. That she will die in the hands of a beast, and no one will ever know that a beast murdered her. Her lungs were stinging from a sudden intake of breath. Her chest constricted as her heart pounded like an impact drill against her rib cage. Cold sweat broke from the side of her head as she stared at the man that came out directly from her nightmare. “Please don’t kill me,” she cowered, prompting her elbows to push her upper body upright, kicking her legs in an attempt to drag

    Discovering her strengths and weaknesses, as well as her flaws, and coming to terms with who she is. “If there is anything else you want to know about her, please let me know.” Mr. Kahl prompted, taking him out of his bubble of thoughts about his beautiful mate. “No, that is all there is to it.” “Okay, bye—” Dylan clicks the end button of his phone and focuses his gaze on the road stretching ahead of him while his mind is consumed by his mate. She was well aware of who he was. She had seen him kill those men who assaulted her. She might have been terrified of him at first glance, but he never caught a glimpse of the rejection in her eyes. Dylan knew that she was also feeling the same way to him. The way her breath caught in her throat when she looked at him, and the way her heart raced wildly inside her chest when he drew her closer to him. The melodious drumbeat of her heart is like a song that has become stuck in his head, and he can't seem to get enough of listening to it.

  • Rejected Billionaire Alpha   Chapter 11: Dancing In The Pub

    To start up with his day, he immediately went to his bathroom and took a shower, readying himself for his office. As much as he wanted to spend this day following his mate around, Dylan couldn’t afford to set aside his work. There are a lot of people depending on his company. Thousands of families will get affected if he lets his emotions get the best of him. He still needs to focus on it, maximizing the time to do what is required to be done. So, then he could do whatever he wanted to do. Finally dressing up with his casual business attire, Dylan took a flight downstairs towards the dining area. Stacy was already there, eating pancakes and bacon for her breakfast and getting ready for school as well. Sensing his arrival, the girl lifted her head with her brows instantly went up in bafflement. Hence, he ignored her reaction and pulled a chair for himself, and sat down across from her. “Don’t your face strain too much?” She suddenly blurted out of the blue, lowering the spoon sh

  • Rejected Billionaire Alpha   Chapter 12: Roadside

    She is not a Muslim, but she lives in an Islamic country where it is forbidden for all women to dress in a liberated manner. It is definitely new to her, though she isn’t complaining. Lorelei also put on her makeup, which was coordinated with her outfit. Her hair had been brushed down, highlighting the wavy curls at the end of her hair that cascaded just above her waistline. “You’re so beautiful!” Gazing herself in the mirror, Lorelei beamed up behind her. Her friend also wore a satin olive-green short dress with a plunging v neckline, hugging her curves so perfectly that, accenting her beautiful black skin and paired up with nude color killer heels lacing up through her knees. Lorelei also set her hair into a natural mess. “You too.” She replied, all too thrilled for this night to get started. “Shall we go outside? I can’t wait for Craig’s reaction to see us both.” Her friend suggested, taking her by the wrist and dragging her outside the room. Lorelei went out first, jumpin

  • Rejected Billionaire Alpha   Chapter 13: Lamentations

    His knuckles turned white from gripping the steering wheel so tight as he weaved through the busy street of Bunga. His wolf snorted with rage, clawing inside him, wanting to be let out and take things on its own, and Dylan struggled to keep him at bay. Throughout the sequence of traffic lights, his patience is wearing thin and he is losing his cool. He’s worried that through the span of time that he was still traveling, something might happen to his mate, same with the incident through the dark alleyway. ‘Isn’t she thinking?’ He muttered to himself as he slammed the brakes as the pub came into view, causing his car to drift sideways instead of parking it properly. He hurriedly stepped out of his car and shut the door with a loud thud, paving his way through the entranceway. Loud sound blaring in his ears, just like when he picked up Stacey the last time. The strong scent of mixed smell assaulted his nostrils, making him hold his breath for the longest time until he came to a spot

  • Rejected Billionaire Alpha   Chapter 14: Thought Of It

    He strode around towards the driver’s seat and climbed inside his car. He threw his mate one quick glance before he started the engine and drove away from the pub. She was leaning on the window. Her feet extended fully on the car’s floor. Her eyes were closed, but it didn’t seem that she was sleeping. She moves every now and then. His car's interior was filled with the scent of her, which was mingled with alcohol. It occurred to him that he should return home, but he quickly realized that Stacey would only exacerbate the situation if she saw Rachel. Eventually, Dylan decided to take her to her small apartment, where she had been staying. He wonders if how Rachel was taking in everything that she had seen in that alleyway. She called him a beast earlier in the pub. Had he been wrong about thinking that she accepted him? That she wasn’t scared of him? What if she rejects him? A twist of pain run through his body at the mere thought of it. “Hmm,” Dylan's attention was drawn to Rac

    However, Rachel got her stubbornness mingled with the residue of intoxication that was still coursing through her veins and only scoff at him. “No, Mr. Wolfman. I can go home all by myself. I can take a cab, and...” She was about to reach for something on her side when she realized it was empty, mumbling to herself as she scratched the back of her head. “Oh, Lorelei has my purse.” “Now, get in the car, Rachie. We are on a desolated road. No taxis are going this way.” Dylan only huffed out his amusement upon seeing the disappointment on her face, knowing that she had lost their meager argument. “Fine.” She rolled her eyes on him and stomped her way back inside the car, slamming the door close with a loud bang. Dylan only shakes his head in disbelief, a laugh that earns its way out from him as he sprints towards the driver’s seat. He’s actually worried about what his house would be like once he put her and Stacey in one room. Helen would probably be laughing her butts off watch

  • Rejected Billionaire Alpha   Chapter 67: The First Vessel

    The storm rolled in without warning.By morning, the Bunga skyline was hidden behind sheets of rain and fog. Clouds hung low and thick, choking the sun into a dull gray smear. Rachel stood at the center of Nyra’s ritual chamber, dressed in black training gear, bare feet planted on cool stone. Her eyes remained closed, her breathing calm, but the storm outside mirrored the chaos pressing against the edges of her mind.The First Flame’s final words echoed louder each day.*“Elira was the second.”*There had been another.A predecessor. A first.And Rachel knew one thing: if that woman’s existence had been buried, it wasn’t by accident.Nyra lit the final rune candle, her lips moving in a low chant. Stacy stood at the door, arms folded, not interrupting but not relaxing either. Dylan leaned against the wall, bruised and silent. Since Ashvale, his mood had shifted—protective, but distant, as if he was bracing for something they couldn’t name yet.Rachel opened her eyes.“I’m ready.”Nyra

  • Rejected Billionaire Alpha   Chapter 66: Shadows Over Ashvale

    The journey back to Bunga was quiet.Too quiet.Rachel sat in the back of the armored vehicle, her hand pressed to Dylan’s chest, steadying the healing pulse Nyra had cast over his heart. He hadn’t woken. His skin had warmed slightly, but his breathing remained shallow. She counted every breath like it was a countdown—one she couldn’t afford to lose.Stacy sat across from them, bruised and scraped but alert, her gaze locked on Dylan’s unconscious face. She hadn’t spoken since they left the ruins. Rachel knew why.They’d seen something ancient.Something wrong.And it was awake now.Nyra sat by the rear door, muttering incantations under her breath, casting protective wards over the vehicle as it rolled down the cracked mountain road. Each spell flickered like a shield, a desperate buffer against whatever might still be watching them from the trees.“She took the name ‘The First Flame,’” Rachel said softly, breaking the silence.Stacy looked up. “Do you know who she is?”“Not exactly.

  • Rejected Billionaire Alpha   Chapter 65: Beneath the Stone

    Rachel didn’t sleep that night. Again.The Council’s eyes had followed her out of the stone chamber with suspicion half-tamed and fear barely concealed. Though they hadn’t imprisoned her—or worse—they hadn’t accepted her, either. She wasn’t a threat, not yet, but she wasn’t an ally, and she could feel it in the silence they left behind. A silence that made the back of her neck itch.Now, hours later, she sat by the window of Dylan’s bedroom, curled up in a chair with her legs pulled to her chest, watching the first blush of morning bleed across the skyline. Another sleepless night. Another weight she couldn’t name pressing into her chest.“You ever going to tell me what they really said in there?”Dylan’s voice came from the bed. He hadn’t turned the light on. He didn’t need to.Rachel didn’t turn around. “You already know.”“They think you’re a coin toss.”She nodded. “And they want to know which side I’ll land on when things break.”Dylan stood and crossed the room. He knelt in fron

  • Rejected Billionaire Alpha   Chapter 64: The Calm Before the Storm

    Rachel stood before the floor-length mirror in her bedroom, staring at her reflection—not for vanity, but to make sure she still recognized the face staring back. Her eyes no longer flashed silver. Her aura no longer surged uncontrollably. The storm within had stilled, but that quiet carried its own kind of warning.She pressed a palm to her chest. The bond that once strained her soul felt like a scar now—healed but never forgotten. She wasn’t Elira. But Elira was now, undeniably, a part of her.A soft knock on the door broke the silence.“It’s open,” she called.Stacy entered, holding a tray with toast and Nyra’s herbal tea. “If you skip another meal, Dylan’s gonna drag you to the kitchen himself.”Rachel gave a soft smile. “Thanks.”Stacy set the tray down and sat on the edge of the bed. “So… you really feel normal again?”Rachel paused. “I feel different. But not unstable.”Stacy studied her carefully. “What does that mean?”“It means I feel like me. Just... upgraded.” She gave a s

  • Rejected Billionaire Alpha   Chapter 63: After the Eclipse

    The air was still. Heavy. The kind of silence that pressed against your eardrums, stretching time itself. Rachel sat at the edge of the ritual circle, the same one that had nearly torn her apart hours earlier. Her legs were folded, spine straight, palms resting against her knees. Her breathing was steady now. No silver light. No flickers of power. No whispers from Elira. Just silence. For the first time in weeks, she felt... alone in her own mind. And yet, not. ere You’re different,” Stacy said, standing in the doorway. “Even your posture. It’s like you’re still you, but... more.” Rachel opened her eyes slowly. “Because I am.” Stacy walked in, barefoot, cautious. “You said you chose both. What does that mean?” Rachel looked up, meeting her gaze. “It means I didn’t destroy Elira. I accepted her.” “You *what*?” “She’s not whispering in my head anymore. She’s part of me. Not separate.” Stacy sat down across from her. “That sounds... dangerous.” “It is,” Rachel admitted. “But d

  • Rejected Billionaire Alpha   Chapter 62: Fracture

    The wind outside the penthouse howled like something ancient had awakened. The eclipse was a few hours away. The sky had already begun its transformation—its deep blue turning pale gray, clouds crawling like shadows ready to devour the sun. Inside, the wards pulsed steadily, glowing brighter than usual, reacting to the shift in the air. Rachel sat at the dining table, staring at the untouched tea Nyra had made for her. She hadn’t spoken since waking. Not to Dylan. Not to Stacy. The conversation with Elira echoed in her skull like a warning bell she couldn’t silence. Only one of us survives. She didn’t know what that meant—not really. But every time she blinked, she saw Elira’s face burned into the backs of her eyelids, watched her vanish into cracked sky, felt the weight of a promise she hadn’t made. Stacy sat across from her, arms folded over a book, watching. Not reading. Just there. Waiting. “I don’t like this,” Stacy said quietly. Rachel didn’t respond. Stacy tapped t

  • Rejected Billionaire Alpha   Chapter 61: The Anchor

    The air inside the penthouse shifted the moment the wards were sealed. Nyra had drawn runes on every surface—windows, walls, even beneath the furniture. Silvery ink glowed faintly under dim light, vibrating with quiet energy. The moon eclipse was twenty-four hours away. The countdown had begun. Rachel stood barefoot in the center of the main room, surrounded by salt lines and symbols written in ancient tongue. Her heart pounded, not from fear, but from anticipation. Her time was running out. And so was her control. Stacy stood off to the side, arms crossed, watching every move like she was ready to jump in at the first sign of trouble. Dylan moved silently behind Nyra, assisting her as she laid the final ward across the ceiling. “How long will this link last?” Rachel asked, eyes flicking between the glowing symbols. Nyra didn’t look up. “Long enough to either ground you… or lose you completely.” Rachel tried to swallow the lump in her throat. “And Dylan will be inside my mind?”

  • Rejected Billionaire Alpha   Chapter 60: Between Fire and Moonlight

    Rachel watched the horizon from the balcony, the last hint of dusk melting into darkness. The city sparkled far below, distant and untouched by the chaos that stirred in her veins.Inside her chest, two truths warred for dominance: the Warden’s calm confession and Elira’s searing rage.She still didn’t know which one to trust.The door behind her opened. She didn’t have to look.“You haven’t spoken since the vision,” Dylan said.Rachel nodded, but said nothing.He stepped beside her. “Say something.”“I’m trying to make sense of it.”“Of what? That the Warden didn’t throw her into the fire, she *asked* for it?”She turned toward him. “Would you believe me if I said I understand?”His eyes narrowed. “Understand what?”“The desire to give up before losing control.”Silence fell between them.Dylan’s jaw tightened. “Don’t ever say that again.”“I’m not giving up. I’m saying… I get it now. The pressure. The weight. Elira was breaking, and no one listened. Not until it was too late.”“You

    Rachel stood under the freezing shower, water crashing against her skin, but it did nothing to quiet the storm inside. Her fingers had stopped glowing, but the sensation lingered—like Elira’s presence was still coiled around her spine, watching her every move.She braced her hands against the tiled wall, breathing heavily, letting the cold slice through her thoughts.She could still hear Elira’s voice.*“Too late.”*Dylan waited outside the bathroom door. He hadn't said a word since they’d rushed her out of the circle. Nyra had wanted to run a full energy purge. Rachel refused. She didn’t want to be cleansed. She wanted to understand.The water turned off. Moments later, the door opened, steam spilling into the hallway. Rachel stepped out, towel around her shoulders, her expression unreadable.“She’s not a voice anymore,” she said. “She’s a presence. A force.”Dylan nodded slowly. “She’s merging.”“No. She’s *moving.* She’s done waiting for me to break.”“Then we stop her.”Rachel lea
