Callista’s POV~~

Andrian stood up and took the lead. “Let me get the keys,” he said, turning back and running towards the desk. He slid open a locker, then closed it immediately. He opened another one, and just like the first time, he closed it again, and on the third, he found the keys. He picked it up and jingled it with his hand.

We both walked out of the pack house and headed straight to Alpha’s library, which is a few miles away from the office.

We got there about a minute later. Andrian opened the door, and we went in. We were welcomed by the thick air surrounding the library. The scent of old parchment lingered in our noses. We walked through the shelves holding dark leather-bound books that stood tall like ancient guards.

Andrian let out an audible sigh. “Where do we begin?”

“I don’t know either,” I inhaled sharply. “Let me check here; you can check your side too.” I gestured to the other shelves at the end of the room. In the library, there are two shelves with books. Wher

  • Rejected and Torn between Alphas    CHAPTER 110: Bedridden

    Cassius’ POV~~ If there had been anything to be done to bring her back, I would have willingly done it to be with Callista. It’s been five years, and I can’t seem to get her off my mind. It’s like a persistent ache with a haunting melody that plays on repeat. It’s like a shadow that lingers, a ghostly press that refuses to fade into the background. Have you ever imagined the ache of longing—a relentless yearning that always grips the heart with icy fingers? I have been through hell a lot of times. I always felt the ache, whispering of a presence lost to the void. The thought that she would have been dead also crashed on me. The weight of her absence bears heavily on me. I was responsible for it all. If she was dead, I was the cause of it. This isn’t a statement of fact. She is probably dead. No omega would survive for a whole five years. Will I ever find solace in this endless night, or am I condemned to dance with phantoms in the realm of what-ifs? Oh, moon goddess, if she had bee

  • Rejected and Torn between Alphas    CHAPTER 111: Kick against spells

    Two years laterCallista’s POV~~ “Spells can’t be allowed among werewolves; it is forbidden; we won’t allow this to spread to other counties.” The council of elders of Southern Wolf County had summoned my beta, Andrian, and me to an impromptu gathering regarding the use of spells in our county. I am the only female Alpha in our world. Words have gotten out that everyone wants to see this mysterious, powerful female Alpha. Ever since Andrian and I knew about the spell book, I told him to teach the pack’s warriors. I had made my warriors learn the spell because I didn't want my pack to be vulnerable to any form of attack. I might be powerful and not defeated by any Alphas, but what about my warriors? They also needed to be powerful. For this reason, I trained and gathered a formidable army of wolves. The warriors whom I noticed had reduced in number compared to seven years ago when I left the pack. Andrian told me they lost most of the pack’s skilled warriors during the war; they fo

  • Rejected and Torn between Alphas     CHAPTER 112: know your place

    Callista’s POV“I have an offer," I said with a big smile on my face. “How about I teach you all Alphas how to use the spell?” a twinkle in my eyes. “You will still need to vote, but now you can choose if you want to learn how to use the spell or ban the existence of the spell,” I added, casting each of them a longing glance. “Hey woman!” I turned my head in the direction where I heard the voice come from. “Did you think you could tell us what to do? You are nothing but a woman, so stick your ass down and watch what happens to your spell,” he flared up, anger evident in his eyes. Just as I had done, it was the same with the rest of the alphas; their eyes locked in the direction of the voice. My gaze landed on a blonde-haired guy. With his look, he should be in his late thirties. My eyes were fixed on him, and our eyes locked. I pierced into his deep green eyes as he did the same to my blue hazel eyes. “I think there is someone that’s going to give us a problem here,” I announced t

  • Rejected and Torn between Alphas    CHAPTER 113: Voting

    Callista’s POV~~“Each of you will write down their choice on a piece of paper without revealing it to the other,” the elder announced again. “I will collect and tally the votes with the rest of the elders here to maintain confidentiality,” he added, gesturing to the council of elders sitting beside him. As soon as he said that, a young boy who should be in his early twenties came inside the meeting hall and brought in something like a parchment. It was made from the hide of a silver-furred wolf. He dropped the parchment at the center of the room, where it is visible for everyone to walk to, and dropped their vote in it. The boy left and came back inside, this time with multiple inks, quills, and a small piece of parchment. He placed it gently in front of each of the Alphas. As he got to my seat, he looked into my eyes, and then a smile spread across his face. I smiled back at him, then he dropped the things he was holding on the table in front of me, bowed slightly, and left. I wa

  • Rejected and Torn between Alphas    CHAPTER 114: beat them at their game

    Callista’s POV~~“The spell won’t be banned, since the majority of the Alphas want to learn,” the elder one dropped the bombshell. I couldn’t believe what I heard. Maya was prancing around, jumping, and wagging her tail in my head. A wide grin appeared on my face, stretching from ear to ear. A wave of happiness washes over me, filling my being with a sense of elation. My eyes twinkled with joy, reflecting the sheer relief that fills my heart. At that moment, my heart feels like a feather, soaring with happiness and pride. It’s like a burst of sunshine on a cloudy day, warming my soul with brightness. All thanks to the moon goddess. My gaze shifted, and I darted around the Alphas, whose expressions were a mix of relief and disbelief; their eyes widened with surprise. Some faces break into smiles, while others furrow in disappointment. The tension that once gripped the room now dissipates, replaced by a wave of emotions washing over them. It's like a storm passing, leaving behind a se

  • Rejected and Torn between Alphas     CHAPTER 115: Weariness

    Back at the Wolfsong Dominion PackMaximus’ POV~~[AN] Listen to sad music while reading this chapter. [It'll allow you to feel the deep emotions better.] Two years ago, he said he told me he would stop thinking about her, but even till present, he hasn’t stopped brooding about her. Cassius and I have been friends since we were so small. We became so distant when he started falling head over heels for an omega his father kicked against.“Max, look, this boy has been so stubborn. He isn’t listening to me. It is unheard of for an Alpha to fall head over heels for a slave who was meant to serve us.” This is what Alpha Damian would always tell me whenever we were alone, or sometimes if Cassius was with us.Being a close friend with Cassius, I had always warned him about meeting Callista secretly since his father didn’t want him to be with her.“You can leave her to us and go with your fated mate,” I always joked, saying this to him, while he would frown and warn me sternly if I had a tho

  • Rejected and Torn between Alphas     CHAPTER 116: Ocean of regrets

    Cassius’ POVI find myself drowning in the ocean of my own regrets. Every breath I take is heavy with the weight of what I've done and the choices I've made. I close my eyes, hoping to escape this haunting reality, but her absence is a relentless echo in my soul. I see her face every time I close my eyes. It felt like her ghost was haunting me every single day. Will I ever get away from this? A mire of my own making that I have sunk into. How I wish I could turn back time and rewrite the script of our love from the very beginning. She accepted my love for her. I never trusted her. I threw her into the claws of death without an ounce of sympathy that she was my love. I remembered that she tried to make me see that she didn’t commit the crime, but the rage brewing inside me that night didn’t allow me to see the sincerity of her words. I have foolishly let her slip away. If only she could see the depth of my remorse, feel the sincerity of my repentance, and come back to me wherever sh

  • Rejected and Torn between Alphas     CHAPTER 117: Searching for a witch

    Maximus’ POV~~ "Listen, warriors.” I called the attention of the warriors I had hand-picked among the other warriors. It might be dangerous out there in the woods, so I have to go with three of them in case the need arises. Who knows what we might encounter out there in the woods? It’s always reeking of danger—more reason an omega would be able to survive alone out there. I shifted my gaze from one warrior to the other. Their eyes are etched with determination, even though I haven’t told them what we are about to do. I picked them because I knew they were stronger among the others. “I had picked you because I needed your support. As you all know, our Alpha has been bedridden for over six months, and different healers from different packs have come here to offer their assistance and support to us regarding his health, but all our efforts to bring him back to his feet have been fruitless. And you know we can’t sit behind and wait for the inevitable to happen, right?” I explained as t

  • Rejected and Torn between Alphas     Chapter 145: Finale

    Cassius POV Callista's words hung heavy in the air, thick and suffocating. My daughter, Jessica, the little firecracker with eyes that mirrored the summer sky, was mine. A pup I hadn't known existed, a piece of me ripped away and hidden for years.Anger, hot and burning, threatened to consume me. How could she keep this from me? All those nights spent yearning for a family and a connection, and she'd had it all along. The years of longing and the emptiness that gnawed at me—a constant reminder of the love I'd lost—were all a lie? I clenched and unclenched my fists, the urge to roar ripping through me. But the sight of Jessica, oblivious to the storm brewing within me, choked the sound back. Her innocent smile, so full of trust, held me captive. My anger simmered, a low growl escaping my throat.Callista flinched, her eyes pleading for understanding. But understanding is a distant speck on the horizon right now. All I saw was the betrayal and the years stolen from me. I know I caused

  • Rejected and Torn between Alphas    CHAPTER 144: Where my heart belongs

    Callista’s POV"Cassius... " His name escaped my lips like a sweet moan, making him groan in response. I gasped after I realized my action, and a blush crept up my face. "I... didn't mean... to... umm," but before I could finish my statement, he grabbed me by the waist and his gaze darkened. "Say it." His voice came out in a husky manner, making my bodily hair stand out. A weird sensation made me rub my tights together as the warmth spread. "Say it." He urged me again, making me feel a little hesitant. He looked totally different from how he was a few minutes ago. I felt our bodies collide after he pulled me closer and nibbled on my collar bone in a seductive manner. "Say my name once more." He smirked, and before I could react, he slammed his lips against mine a little roughly and lifted me up at the same time. Before I could comprehend what was going on, I was already on the bed with his weight resting on me, but his lips never parted from mine. A moan escaped my lips, but that di

    Callista’s POVHe rushed forward, his embrace almost choking the air out of me. The familiar scent of pine and woodsmoke surrounded me, a scent that had watched out for me during the just-concluded battle; maybe it was then that the connection surged back. I couldn't say, but it felt good to be back home and to be in his arms again.He pulled away, his gaze still locked on mine. But then, his eyes traveled past me and landed on Jessica. The smile on his face dissipated, replaced by a frown etched with confusion.His brow furrowed at her as if trying to understand something. "Who is this?" he asked, his voice low and gruff. “And he?” he gestured towards Shaman Magnus.My heart pounded against my chest. This was it. The moment of truth. Taking a deep breath, I kneeled before Jessica, her innocent face beaming up at me and her blue eyes radiating energy. "Jessica," I began, my voice barely above a whisper. "This is your father, Cassius, Alpha of the Wolf Song Dominion Pack, whom you hav

    Callista’s POVAs the pack slowly dispersed, the weight of the moment finally settled on my shoulders. Leaving wasn't just about duty or forging a new path; it was about confronting the past, about mending the fractured bond with Tristan and Cassius. Taking a deep breath, I approached him. The air crackled with unspoken emotions—a tangible tension that stretched between us. "Tristan," I began, my voice barely above a whisper.He met my gaze, his blue eyes searching mine. "Callista," he replied, his voice rough with emotion. “I am sorry.” His tone was low and soft. I gave him a small smile. “We can’t duel in the past; I have forgiven you wholeheartedly,” I responded as a matter of fact. “I shouldn’t have broken the bond back then,” he said with a regret-filled voice. “It's fine. I just hope you understand the path I have chosen and my decision,” my voice carrying a newfound strength.“Callista,” I heard Lily calling from behind, which made me whip my head in the direction of her vo

  • Rejected and Torn between Alphas     CHAPTER 141: Difficult decisions

    Callista’s POVTristan stood before me, the shackles gone but the weight of his imprisonment still etched on his face. A tense silence hung heavy in the air, broken only by the movement and murmurs of my pack members.The decision clawed at me, a battle between duty and a yearning I couldn't quite define. Taking a deep breath, I addressed my assembled pack members, their faces a sea of curiosity and unease.The murmurs of my pack rose in the tense silence, a hint of disapproval and confusion. I could feel Andrian's gaze burning into me, my beta and closest confidante. Would he understand this unexpected turn of events? Could he see, as I did, the flicker of a man yearning for redemption amidst the ruins of his past?"We have a prisoner of vengeance no more," I announced, my voice ringing with authority. The word tasted like ashes in my mouth. A collective gasp rippled through the crowd, a wave of shock that mirrored my own turmoil. "Tristan will no longer be held captive within our wa

  • Rejected and Torn between Alphas    CHAPTER 140: Back home

    Callista’s POV “Mommy!" Jessica’s arms wrapped tightly around my waist, burying her face in my stomach. Relief washed over me, bittersweet and sharp. "Where did you go? Aunt Lily said you left to kill big bad wolves!" I chuckled, the sound raspy. "Not exactly, sweetheart. I went to help Alpha Cassius and his pack. They needed a little… assistance." Jessica tilted her head back, peering up at me with wide, worried eyes. The resemblance to Cassius, with her sharp jaw and frame, was uncanny. But her eyes—those held a warmth Cassius never possessed, but of mine. "Did you get hurt, Mommy?" Her tiny hand reached up to touch a bruise blooming on my arm. Guilt gnawed at me. Leaving Jessica, even for a war I couldn't ignore, felt like a betrayal. "Just a few scratches, honey bee. Nothing a good night's sleep won't fix." I kneeled before her, forcing a smile. Jessica’s concern was a stark reminder of the responsibility I bore—to her, to my pack, and yes, even to Cassius, her father. But un

  • Rejected and Torn between Alphas     CHAPTER 139: In the heart of war, love lingers

    Cassius’ POV“Alpha, they are subduing us at the south border!" A fear-painted link echoed through my head, a glaring contrast to the ringing silence that had just descended on the clearing. Callista flinched beside me, her eyes wide with alarm. Pain flared in my shoulder, a throbbing reminder of the fight, but it was nothing compared to the sudden surge of fear that just coursed through me. "Shit! Let's go to the south border!" I roared the command, adrenaline masking the ache in my body. I scrambled to my feet, ignoring the way the world tilted for a moment.Callista was already moving; a black, brown, and white hybrid was disappearing into the trees. I pushed myself after her, pushing through the pain and the fear of a hot coal in my gut. We raced through the undergrowth, the pounding of paws echoing through the forest floor.As we broke through the trees and twigs, the scene that greeted us was one of chaos and goriness. Our warriors, outnumbered and caught off guard, were being

  • Rejected and Torn between Alphas    CHAPTER 138: It’s time for war

    Cassius’ POV“What spell?” I raised a quizzical brow. “Watch out for it. Let’s move now!” She ran off towards the woods while the remaining warriors ran after her without answering my questions.As the pouncing from the woods became heavier and nearer, a realization dawned on me about what she said. Most of the packs in the North are joining forces against us. This is going to be a long night. “Shit!” I yelled and ran after her. We came to a halt when we caught sight of two groups of enemies pouncing forward in our direction. “These are two packs here,” I said immediately as I caught up with her. “Yeah, maybe they split up,” she nodded. “Attack!” she growled loudly as the earth trembled beneath our feet. The air crackles with anticipation, and the scent of fur thickens in my nostrils. The full moon hangs like a giant, watchful eye in the sky, casting the battlefield in an eerie silver light. Howls erupt from both sides. A scream of rage reverberates across the forest.Callista s

  • Rejected and Torn between Alphas    CHAPTER 137: He is still the arrogant Alpha

    Callista’s POV The news of my arrival sparked a fire in the entire pack. Nervousness hung heavy in the air, but it was mixed with fierce determination. Young and old warriors gathered on the training ground, their eyes blazing with fighting spirit.I felt anger brewing up in me when Cassius’ gamma told me he asked me to come into his office. I had planned on how to trash him with words, but as I got in, his gaze made those thoughts fly away. A part of me craves him, and another part is pushing me away, but whichever part it is, I don’t think I would listen to anyone if it were. I just have to go ahead with what I came here to do and push those feelings aside. We can’t be on the battleground with emotions flying around. It would make either of us lose concentration. A frustrated groan escaped my lips. Had I traveled all this way, defying logic and reason, just to be on the receiving end of his teasing and flirtation? “I can do anything I want; this isn’t the Callista from years ago
