Rejected Omega: The Rise of Jemima BRIEF DARKENING
Jemima’s POVAfter Adrian hurried out of my room like a man who was on the run for his life, it felt like he had taken all the warmth with him. The room had suddenly become too quiet and I could feel the tendrils of loneliness reaching out to squeeze my heart. I hated the feeling.The whole betrayal I experienced with my former mate, Connor, had made me vow that I was never going to fully open up to another man and let myself be vulnerable. Damn the stupid mate bond. Perhaps, if I hadn't sensed how he hesitated to mark me and how he withdrew into himself right after our intense love-making, I would not have been experiencing the crushing feeling of regret. Being intimate with my mate had crossed my mind several times since we first met but I always managed to push those thoughts to the furthest parts of my mind. The Pack’s troubles had also helped me not to focus on stuff like that. I was still surprised at how the intense desire to mate had suddenly hit both of us at the same

Adrian’s POV“I think I now remember who it belongs to,” I continued. “Abigail.”Her brows furrowed in puzzlement at the mention of her stepmother’s name and then I felt the mockery directed at herself for forgetting that the name was quite common and not reserved for only her. “Was she a member of this Pack?” she queried.“Jemima, we are talking about your stepmother here,” I replied. Her eyes widened in surprise and I watched as she visibly struggled for what to say.“I'm sorry I didn't tell you this earlier, but a few weeks before the fight in the forest, I ran into her when I was following a trail. I think she is somehow connected to all of this,” I revealed.“You think?” my mate queried angrily. I didn't blame her. It wasn't right for me to have kept that piece of information away from her considering the relationship between them.“Why the hell didn't you tell me about it earlier?”“Calm down, Jem,” I murmured. “I just didn't think it was necessary at that time.”“But it certa

Jemima’s POVI really wanted to go with Adrian to see my stepmother who seemed to be involved in the tangled web of mysteries that surrounded me. But it was a wise decision for me to stay behind. Abigail despised me and wouldn't want to give me anything I desperately needed, which in this case, were answers to my questions.Why was I so different from the others? And why did it seem as though my life was being targeted?Perhaps, if my mother hadn't cruelly abandoned me, I wouldn't have been as confused about my abilities and why I had them.Her abandonment was something I was never going to forgive. Because of her decision, I had suffered at the hands of my stepmother and her daughter. The most painful part of it all was that my father had done nothing to protect me.“Jeez, stop glaring at the forest already or you are going to set it ablaze.”Piper’s voice pierced through my thoughts, abruptly pulling me back to the present. I regarded her friendly expression for a moment. She was

Jemima’s POVMesmerized by the sight in front of me, I took a step forward. “You are supposed to be at the Pack House.”I whipped around to face Garrett, the spell cast by the stones broken in an instant by the sound of the Beta’s angry voice. An apology was just at the tip of my tongue but I changed my mind. He should have known better than to interrupt whatever it is that would have happened had I gone close enough to touch the stones. Something would have happened. I was sure of it.“So are you,” I said to him, not bothering to hide my irritation at his presence. He muttered something under his breath and then closed his eyes to take a deep breath. When he opened them, I saw that his anger had vanished. “It's not safe for you out here. Let's head back. I'm not going to tell Adrian about this even though it's the right thing to do. He is going to be really mad.”I shrugged. “You can tell him if you want. I didn't ask you not to.”Without waiting for him to say another word, I

Jemima’s POVA shriek of surprise escaped my lips as he carelessly flung me over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes.I was well aware of where his palm rested – right on my butt. “Adrian, this is not how you sweep a lady off her feet, in case that’s what you are trying to do here,” I said. He chuckled. “You should have known by now, dear mate, that I am not a gentleman. Don't worry, you are going to get used to it with time.”I snorted and didn't speak to him again until we reached my bedroom. The short dress I was wearing, rode up dangerously higher as he gently lowered me to the bed.His gaze latched on to my exposed thighs as he straightened just before I got the chance to adjust my dress. “Don’t,” he murmured, stilling the motion of my fingers. “You do not have to cover up when we are together.”My fingers tightened on the hem of my dress as I fought to control the sudden wave of anger that washed over me. “Jem, are you alright?” he queried. His tone was laced with concern.

Adrian’s POVI left Jemima’s room feeling like a piece of shit. She didn't deserve this. She didn't deserve to be punished for my past experiences but I couldn't help it. It had been easier to pretend that I thought the reason she was mad was because we had sex. Easier than admitting that I had pulled away and talking to her about Sienna. Thoughts of her still hurt and it wouldn't be a good thing if my mate thought that I was still so affected by my dead mate. “You look so lost,” my beta said, startling me. I hadn't noticed his presence.His eyes sparkled with mischief. “You know you can come to me whenever you want with your woman problem, right?”“Coming from someone who has no experience whatsoever with a woman. Go to bed, Garrett,” I replied. “That is not true,” he protested, grinning. “You can ask Piper about it.”I made a face. “Certainly not interested. Now, if you don't have anything else to say, allow me retire to my bedroom in peace.”“How did it go with Abigail?” he que

Jemima’s POVThe way he said my government-issued name was enough to make me shudder with desire.I was well aware of my nipples hardening and poking through the thin material of my shirt which I held to my chest even as I jutted my chin stubbornly at him. It was as though there was a force pushing me to vex him as much as I could. A force I couldn't resist.“You have no right to tell me what or what not to say, Adrian Blackthorn. You can't control me like the rest of your Pack members.”A muscle in his jaw clenched at my provocation and then his gaze lowered to my chest, eyes lighting up with fascination at the way my hard nipples were threatening to poke through my shirt. My mouth went dry as his gaze darkened with a combination of fierce hunger and anger. “I guess I should head back to the Pack house,” Piper said, her voice barely above a whisper and turned to leave.Neither the Alpha nor I turned to acknowledge her. I found out that I couldn't barely move. The heat in my mate’s

Jemima’s POVIf he said my name one more time like that, I was positively going to combust on the spot. The heat in his gaze was already making it hard enough for me to concentrate on teasing him. I toyed with the waistband of my panties for a couple of seconds, undulating my hips in a suggestive manner.Without stopping the movement of my hips, I began to slowly pull my panties down. Another gasp escaped my mate’s lips as I allowed the flimsy material to fall to my ankles.“Come here,” he murmured and I stepped out of the panties to slowly walk towards the bed. “You are really going to pay for teasing me like that,” he said in a hoarse voice. “You have no idea how hard it was for me not to explode just from watching you.”My lips curled into the smug smile of a woman well aware of her feminine power as I straddled his hips.His hands immediately went to my butt and started to lovingly knead it.“I thought you enjoyed every bit of the show,” I purred. “Surely, you wouldn't punish

Jemima’s POVA gasp slipped from my lips at his question and for a couple of seconds, I could only stare at him, at a loss for what to say.Perhaps, a huge part of me had thought that he had put the incident that happened the other day at the Midnight Pack behind him.I had been sorely wrong. “So you can’t speak now?” he queried, his voice quavering with barely concealed rage. “Say something Jemima before I lose my damn mind.”My eyes closed as I drew in a shuddering breath and silently prayed to the Moon Goddess for wisdom to handle the situation. “Adrian,” I began, “Nothing happened between me and Zade. It was just….”“I want the truth, Jemima,” he snapped, cutting me off. “If we are going to continue whatever it is that we had before you left, I would want to be sure that I can trust you. I want to be sure that your affections do not lie somewhere else.”“You are my mate, Adrian. I wouldn't put anyone else before you. You asked for the truth and I am going to give it to you.”I d
Rejected Omega: The Rise of Jemima Ninety-Five
Jemima’s POVIf I had been expecting a very warm welcome from Adrian, then I would have been sorely disappointed. But even though I hadn't been expecting it, he could have at least even tried to pretend that he was pleased to see me. It was a good thing that at least his Pack members were more excited about my return.They had even prepared a feast which we all settled down to enjoy in the general hall. I couldn't help but notice that the Alpha was absent. If I had any doubts before that he wasn't pleased about my return, his absence from a feast prepared on my behalf made me certain.“Perhaps, he is just too overwhelmed to be in your presence,” the Beta said, earning a scoff from Piper. Briefly, they glared at each other. “It's wrong for him not to be here. The only acceptable excuse is if he is currently on the verge of death and the last time I checked, he was perfectly healthy,” she replied. “It's okay guys. The rest of you are here. It would be most ungrateful for me not to

Adrian’s POV“Of course, you dumbass,” she replied with a small smile and I released a breath I didn't realize I had been holding. “Did you really think that I was going to come here, reject you and then return to the Midnight Pack?” she queried with mild disbelief etched on her features. I shrugged. “I had to consider the possibility so that I wouldn't feel too disappointed if it happened.”She shook her head. “You really need to have a little faith in people, especially your own mate. I would never do that to you. You might not know this about me but I'm never disloyal to the one who is loyal to me.”“I’ll keep that in mind,” I replied. Afterwards, a silence so awkward descended on the room that I wished someone would just show up to make things a little lighter. My gaze had returned to the file on my desk, and though I could see the words, I could not make sense of them. I knew it was unusual for things to feel weird between mates, but I just couldn't help the feeling of anxiet
Rejected Omega: The Rise of Jemima Ninety-Three
Adrian’s POVWhen Piper had told me that my mate, if I could still call her that, was going to be returning to the Pack the following week, I scoffed. She had arched an eyebrow questioningly. “I thought you were going to react to this piece of information with a little bit more excitement.”“Did she tell you exactly why she’s coming here?” I queried and Piper’s brows knitted together in confusion. It occurred to me that Jemina had not told her friend all the details of the argument that happened between us the last time we saw each other. It had hurt me but I had decided to allow her the freedom to make a choice. Zade or me. She was supposed to come to the Pack to reject me if she had chosen to be with Zade.“Never mind,” I said to Piper with a forced smile.She rolled her eyes. “So you really haven’t spoken with her since after the argument? Come on, you two are supposed to have sorted things out by now, don’t you think?”“Perhaps, we might start working on that when she returns,
Rejected Omega: The Rise of Jemima Ninety-Two
Jemima’s POVEventually, my training came to an end and I still hadn't met this guardian angel of mine who had asked Zade to help me master my abilities. I still also hadn’t discovered what my so-called destiny was, why I had these abilities and why some people wanted me dead. Speaking of death, it was quite surprising that throughout my stay at the Midnight Pack, there was no attempt on my life. Not even when I had decided to be courageous and had gone for a walk at the Park with Aurora a few times. Zade made sure that my hair was covered though so that people wouldn't notice the rare streaks in it.On the day I was supposed to leave Zade’s Pack, I was filled with mixed feelings. It didn't help that Aurora had decided to stay behind. We had really bonded over the months and it kind of hurt to just be separated from her.But I understood why though. The Beta had started to show her some affection and she felt it was going to lead somewhere. She had always had a massive crush on

Jemima’s POVJust at that moment, the door burst open and we pulled apart. But the damage had already been done. “Adrian,” I began, nervously tucking a strand of hair behind my ear. “I wasn't expecting your visit today.”“Obviously,” he murmured spitefully, glaring at the other Alpha who didn't even seem to notice my mate’s anger. I guessed he was still thinking about the question I had asked.“Is everything alright back at the Pack?” I queried.“Do you even care?” he replied, looking at me with a mix of hurt and disappointment in his eyes. “Is being locked in a passionate embrace with him now a part of your training?”“Adrian,” I began but he cut me off.“Is he the one you want to be with? All you have to do is say the word and I'm going to leave you be. We could reject each other and move on. It's not like we are that emotionally attached anyway.”A gasp of disbelief slipped from my lips. I knew he was hurting but his words were quite harsh. “Stop being so immature, will you?” Za

Jemima’s POVMy discovery of the rogues’ hideout made things a lot easier. In the end, there was indeed a witch making them cause chaos that easily without being caught. The bastards had kidnapped her daughter and threatened to kill her the second any of them dropped dead due to her spells. So she had had no choice but to help them for the sake of her daughter.“You did good today,” Zade said the minute we were within the walls of the palace. “We could easily take them down and counter the other witch’s power because of your abilities.”He was giving me too much credit in my opinion. Zade had also done a whole lot of work using both his abilities as a sorcerer and a werewolf. My lips curled into a teasing smile. “Did you just give me a compliment? I guess there is going to be a major eclipse today.”He rolled his eyes. “Don’t make me take it back.”Later that day, Adrian showed up. The fact that I had been instrumental in capturing the rogues and that I was safe, didn't make him a

Jemima’s POVFinding out where exactly the rogues were coming from was one of the things that I was tasked with.For the first time, I was going to use my power of remote viewing in a real-life situation.“It's impossible for rogues to be that elusive,” Zade was saying. We were on the training field with his Beta and some of his soldiers, discussing our plans to catch the rogues. “And it's not as though the soldiers of the Crescentmoon Guard Pack are amateurs. I have seen them in action before and can testify that they are very skilled. Capturing a few rogues should be a very simple task for them.”“So what exactly are you trying to bring out here?” Damien queried. “They certainly have help from someone. I know the workings of sorcery when I see it,” Zade replied. “What's baffling is why exactly a witch would offer her services to rogues.”“Perhaps, she is being blackmailed or she just has a personal beef with Alpha George and is using the rogues to do her dirty work,” I replied. “
