The entire pack was immediately gathered, shocked to see that humans had reached the side of their islands; they still had no idea how the veil they had used for decades had crumbled down, leaving them exposed to the outside world.

Elise and Hayden's utmost concern right now was their people, the wounded being ushered back into the hospital, and helping with minor wounds.

As Elise passed by, the crowd of people thanked her for saving them, but she felt her heartstrings pull when she saw a small boy alone. The father she had saved was halfway through shock and had lost a lot of blood, rendering him unconscious. Her heart grew heavier with the loss of the whole pack.

She didn’t want Ethan to see her like this, bloodied from the battle, but her son had already witnessed it all, and her heart sank at how brave he was. Yet this was an eye-opener to what she had forgotten the outside world to be.

She took Ethan back to the place where she bathed him, and he immediately fell asleep

    And just like that, Elise was ready for him. Her core ached and clenched in anticipation; their breaths mingled in heated lust as she felt his member slide open her folds. A shudder passed her lips as their gazes locked. She felt his hard length push into her sex. She moaned, grabbing harder at his shoulders, her nails curling deeper into his skin as Hayden shoved his full girth into her entrance. “Hmm, Ngh, Hayden, oh!” She moaned, feeling his length in her for the first time. He set her core on fire, and Hayden relished in all her moans, kissing down her chest from the ecstasy she was feeling. Every drag off her inner wall on his dick made the pull achingly torturous yet so good. Each cry and contort of her face she made from the feel of his cock caused a groan from his lips. He took her in like wine, high on the sweet drug that was Elise. She hummed deeper, his lips biting on her soft, pillowy lips. Taking in her moan, he prodded her lips, asking for access into her mouth

  • Rejected and claimed by the alpha beast    The burning question

    A summit with all the packs in person? It would be a reunion that she never expected, especially with the Blackmoon pack. That means she could meet them: Kaide, Taz, and most especially, Rygan. Did she ever think to look for her? She felt like cold water had been splashed on her face to wake her up from the news of the summit. The memories of what they’d done to her—how Kaide and Alvira betrayed and locked her up—and Rygan—it took too late for him to believe her; he didn’t fight for her, not when his best friend and betrothed had the upper hand and the pack's trust on their side. “El?..El!” Hayden’s voice reached her the second time he called out, his face laced with worry as he neared the bed. His hands caressed her face, studying the worry in them. “What’s wrong?” He asked Elise; a part of her didn’t want him to worry; didnt want him to bother about what she was feeling? He was her husband, the male she chose. And Rygan had nothing to do with her anymore. “No, nothing. I

  • Rejected and claimed by the alpha beast    Counting the days

    Hayden tries to act nonchalant when Elise tells him that Ethan’s father will be at the summit and that the alpha identity turns out to be someone so unexpected and powerful. “What?” He was perplexed by her confession. He knew one day they’d talk about who Ethan’s true father was, but he never knew it’d be now, especially to say it was someone coming to the summit, and not just anyone but Rygan ka’al Andras. But Hayden was so angry at the fact that those monsters, Kaide and Alvira, could treat such a beautiful soul as Elise as a criminal, and she was abandoned to fend for herself; he wanted to kill them. “The Black Moon Pack,” she starts with a light caress on Hayden's face as he quietly listens. “That was where I was given refuge after my first mating failed,” she starts. She tells him her story, from what happened to her mother and then becoming a slave in Kyren's hands to when she met Rygan in that dark cell and how he saved her. They were practically bonded. He couldn't

  • Rejected and claimed by the alpha beast    The summits surprise

    No one in Rygan's pack had expected that attack either; they had all been celebrating Taz's announcement that he was going to be a father soon, and no one saw it coming that night. The males all sat around the bonfire in Taz’s yard, and they were all surprised to see their alpha king in attendance. It was Taz's pleading request to Rygan, and he showed up. Throughout the years, Rygan had become the shell he once was, now a cold alpha who was the beast of the night. Yes, he was a protector of his people, killing threats and anything that dared trespass into their lives. He had been there when they needed him to be, and at the birth of his and Alvira's child, he made sure to be there. A glimmer of hope turned when he saw he now had a child, hoping to calm down that feral recklessness knowing that he had something and someone to protect. Yet he hated that he felt no bond with his daughter; what was that? Through the years, his relationship with Kaide had become estranged; there

  • Rejected and claimed by the alpha beast    Ghost of the past

    It felt as if time had stopped for the Blackmoon Alpha. It felt like he was looking at a ghost from the past. Rygan felt like he couldn’t breathe; none of them could the minute they watched Elise walk into the room. Elise was alive; she had been all this time. Taz was wide-eyed with shock, while Kaide and Alvira looked terrified, as if they had seen a ghost come to haunt them. Kyren's face mirrored that of the Beddor cousin, with an icy terror in their gaze, while Chief Dexton looked like he was a second away from bolting out of the room in fear. No one saw this coming, and now they could barely speak a word. “Welcome, Alpha and Luna of the Calhan Pack,” Camille called, breaking the icy tension in the room. They were all intrigued by the fact that this was the first time they had seen a Calhan wolf interact with other packs in decades. But half of the table was more terrified and still in disbelief of the female who stood tall and proud, her hands elegantly placed on the cur

  • Rejected and claimed by the alpha beast    The final plea

    The whole room was still clouded in utter tension from the chaos that ensued the moment Elise made her appearance and ripped Dexton's arm out; they knew then she was a force to reckon with. Yet to their surprise, she asked for leniency for the humans, just until they had a talk with their leaders and maybe came to a treaty with them to never attack the wolf packs ever again, especially since it was a ploy and partnership likely set by her ex-father Beta Dexton. There were still questions as to how the humans found out about the pack since they had been hidden for so long; something still didn’t add up. But with the decision tallied three to three on each pack's vote, there was still no verdict on the outcome of their choice. Silence only spoke from the Black Moon pack, who had been mute with astonishment ever since Elise arrived. Only after the agreement for a trial did the summit get postponed. With the moon city being a day’s journey from all their respective packs, rooms

    Elise had a son. They couldn't believe it. As they all gawked in shock and confusion, Elise held onto the small boy who called her mom, his curious eyes going to Hayden, who smiled at him. For the first time, breaking that hard. He had the exterior of a cold, wicked warrior as he looked down at Ethan, but his cold eyes returned as soon as he faced away from him. Ethan’s curious gaze went across everyone standing in front of him and locked specifically on Rygan, who hadn’t said a word since Ethan’s arrival. He felt frozen in place as he gawked at the boy; something in him thrashed and made his body itch to get closer. He wondered if it was the shock or utter jealousy that Elise had a family, but it was something more than what met the surface. Something his blood recognized before he did. “Who are they, Mom?” “El, this is your—“ “No one is important, sweetie," she said, cutting Rygan off. For a short moment, panic rushed into her gaze before she turned away from them.

    Being in the moon city had never felt so nerve-wracking. Everyone was on edge with the tension growing; the sun had set in no time, a reminder of the dinner all packs must attend to further strengthen their relationship, but with no talk of the matter of war. But Rygan could barely think of that; all that was on his mind was Elise! Elise, Elise! He needed to talk to her; just another glimpse of her would quench the burning flame of yearning in his heart. So Rygan had left his chambers first, walking through the compound, his head a mess from what just happened today, and he thought he was processing fully now that Elise was still alive. But that look on her face was like he couldn’t recognize her; that cold, unforgiving gaze caused shudders to rush through his blood. As he walked through the compound to the way of the dinner hall, he came across the last bastard he’d want to see, Kyren, who was busy talking to his concubine in a wicked manner, his hands wrapped around her ne

    (EPILOGUE)..The lonely, dark halls of the Black Mountains cell were Alvira's only companions throughout the passing days; she could barely keep track of the time, day, or month.It was hell on earth, a punishment for crimes that made her feel insane, and she deserved every bit of it, especially after what she did to Alana. Some days she felt like the dark halls were haunted by her sister and Kaide’s ghost, her only companions pushing her to the edge of insanity."Just look at her," one of the guards spoke, spooked as they watched Alvira sitting quietly, composed in a way that was eerie at times, making the hair on their skin stand up. Her dark brunette hair was matted and scattered in knots, hiding her face.Her nails were tattered from incessant biting, a habit she had developed; she didn't bother responding to the guards' whispers.In the first months she'd been there, she raised hell until her throat bled, screaming to be freed, but she knew there wouldn’t be a chance.

    It all felt so natural, so right, falling into each other's arms like they’d known one another for a lifetime, and with each kiss, Jax felt more completed by his omega. “You have no idea how much I love you, how much you drive me wild, Lorraine,” he muttered with a kiss to her bare shoulder. He quickly unzipped the gown, pushing it off her. The beta watched wide-eyed with desire at how confident his omega had gotten in that moment. He watched as she traced a hand from his hard pecs and abs, dipping her hands further into the water, trailing down the space between his crotch till she held his hardening cock. Jax hissed in pleasure at her touch. He watched her pupils dilate in reaction to his, and her meek honey-filled voice whispered, “Do you like this?” ”Fuck, I love everything you do, and even you—yes, just like that,” he hummed when he felt another hard squeeze to his cock; moons now she was just torturing him. “You have no idea what I want to do to you,” he whispered. ”

    JAX'S POV After seeing Lorraine in that state, I never wanted to see her cry again. I knew there was no going back with my wolf already obsessed with her every call; I was hers before she even completely knew it. It isn’t long till I reach the station where I'm needed. Immediately seeing the hunched frame of my two friends, they both peer up at me with smug, knowing looks on their faces. And mischievous smirks I could spot even from a mile away. ”Damn..we know she’s yours, dude. Chill out,” Michael mutters first. “We can practically scent her on your skin,” he calls with arms up in surrender. ”Good,” I say, surprising them both; they must have expected me to try and deny it. But I wanted everyone to know she was mine, and I couldn’t keep myself from her anymore, not when my wolf was already so drawn to her. “I’ve lost to her, moons; I'm so in love with her; she is everything I could ever dream of, fuck,” I mutter, still in disbelief at how I’ve been truly enamo

    Jax knew he had made an awful mistake by saying those words and not being straightforward. The beta felt like a wreck the moment he saw how Lorraine’s face had crumbled. He had misspoken, and now she must have thought he only saw her as nothing more than a fling. He tried to explain himself, but the damage had been done. He quickly obeyed her wish to be left alone. There would be enough time to talk to her, and he would make sure to tell her his true feelings. Right now, she needed space, which gave him enough time to think too. The beta rushed outside to clear his head and get them breakfast since there wasn’t anything left in his kitchen. He dropped by the baker's shop for a fresh set of their renowned pie, with the pack members greeting him good morning. Jax halted in his steps when his eyes caught a beautiful pastel blue sundress in a shop, and a certain blonde immediately filled his mind. He headed in, even though he had no idea what he was doing, and bought many dresses

    The kiss was intoxicating; there was no end to Jax’s desperate need for more; he wanted her more than he could ever fathom. It felt like Every control he had snapped when he heard her soft voice pleading to be touched; he knew he couldn’t fight it any longer. His hand combed through her gold locks, a firm grip causing a moan from her lips. She shuddered in desire from his touch; she felt his hand trace down her naked thighs, and a whimper escaped her lips from his touch. His hands pushed firmly on her tiny back, trailing into her shirt, touching the small expanse of her back and finding that sensitive spot on her skin that had Lorraine arching until her back pressed against the bed, leaving her a whimpering mess. She pushed Jax closer, feeling his other hand trail to her aching sex. She watched him, unblinking from his gaze, their breaths mingled and gaze locked with one another. “I'm going to put a finger in, okay, sweetheart?” He muttered with a kiss pressed to her button no

    The beta scolds himself with a curse, mortified that he said something so obscene. But when he peered at Lorraine, looking at how innocent her gaze was, she hadn't understood the complication of the words he said. He was thankful but still mortified. Jax then quickly settled himself on the island table as they both munched on their food; he quietly watched the female, satisfied as Lorraine ate with a full appetite. A deep primal part of him was happy that he cooked for her. But the reason she could eat so well was that Jax assured her that Nora would be fine with Abby and was in great care. That calmed her; she felt so happy and relieved in this moment that she finally let her scent waft across the room; it made the beta visibly stiffen. Her jasmine scent wafted across the room, making the beta wolf alert and thrash around, yearning to be closer. That’s when he realized why her scent was so sweet and alluring. “You... are an omega?” he called in surprise, and for a moment, he

    The walk back to Jax's home was quiet and more awkward than he anticipated, but mostly since he was trying hard not to stare at Lorraine while they walked to his cabin. "Fuck this," he thought; his wolf was barely in control, his desire to touch her and know what she tasted like underneath all her clothes was more than tempting, but right now he could barely see her face under the cloak. "Um, I don’t think I thanked you for this." "You did," he cut in quickly, and for a short moment their gaze locked; he could see a blush on her cheek spread before she turned away. Why did she choose me? He couldn’t help wondering; he barely recalled opening the doors to his home with Lorraine trailing in after him. “And don’t worry too much about your sister; she is in great hands, and Abby will take care of her, but now you need to take care of yourself. You need rest,” he adds. “Thank you..” “Jax, my name is Jax Kullin.” He tells her he could see interest glistening in her gaze, with

    (Side story) JAX'S POV. . . There was a time when anyone could try to tell me true love was real, and I'd fall for it; and all the more, having a fated mate was unheard of, a love was so strong like my parents who died in each other's arms during the war 20 years ago. I couldn’t fathom what kind of love would bring someone to their knees and, all the more, die for their partner. I and my best friends have always joked about never falling in love so desperately for anyone, yet my best friend Hayden was an exception none of us ever expected. He was a goner for Elise the moment he met her. I could see why he loved her, though it took time for her to trust us. I could see the ease in her eyes, and the walls crumbled when Hayden was there. But it was never as intense as what my friend felt. Hayden, who loved El with all his heart and died for that said love, broke me beyond words when I heard the news of his death from Holden; none of us could believe it, no

    Rygan was more than aroused for his mate; his tongue dipped into her coated entrance for a taste of more; he sucked and lapped greedily on her sex, causing a moan to erupt from Elise's lips from his merciless intrusion into her sex; his tongue was like a drug driving her mad. "Fuck. My love, you taste amazing," he muttered, her sex clenched from the feel of his heated breath fanning her folds, she moans out in pleasure, grabbing tight to the sheets for her dear life. There was barely an intrusion other than his tongue yet; but Rygan's tongue alone had made her climax, and now the alpha lapped at her sex like a thirsty man. She let out a cry from the intrusion of his thick finger. The pleasure felt like a torturous drag in her walls, her back arching from stimulation when another thick finger was added to her wet heat. "Look at how tight you are for me; you taste like honey; my cock would feel good inside you," he growls with a bite to her inner thigh. She flinches from his
