They trailed down the hill in silence. Elise made sure she was at least five feet apart in front of him at all times; she dared not turn, and she never gave him the satisfaction that he might have some kind of hold on her.

After a while, they made it to the roads, she recalled. She felt it was close enough to use her powers as she tried her telepathic channel to call for Hayden.

"Can you at least act like I am not a ghost?" Rygan interrupted; moons, he was so stubborn. The moment she turned to him, she could see his gaze momentarily move to her lips. A look that caused a warm rush down her spine.

“It is taking everything in me not to punch the fucking daylight out of you,” she retorts. “He is close, so please…”

“I won’t speak a word if you do not want me to; I’m not that dishonorable,” he says to Elise. A flash of hurt crosses his face, and Elise's shoulders slump in return.

They stare at each other until the sound of dry leaves crunching gives a sign that someone is getti

    A fight to the death, the deadly silence ensued with tension to the alphas stance. "We really shouldn't be doing this right now, please!" She starts But both alphas' gazes were filled with nothing but bloodlust and a crippling intensity; Hayden wasn’t backing down, and neither was Rygan. Elise feels her finger scrape her skin till blood flows, and fear courses through her entire body as she stares at them. “You both need to stop this; please, you do not need to fight.” “I will fight for you, Elise, because you are mine, and I will kill this male who has caused you nothing but pain and who touched you.” Hayden's mouth opened wide as his canine protruded out. His eyes were glazed red, like ruby stones, but now his white orbs were painted pure black from the poison messing with his head. *He is infected, and you know it. I know I can’t kill him, but I have to find a way to put him down. He is a liability right now with the poison,* Rygan sends through the mental bond. She kno

    “Hayden, no! Please, no!” she begged as she clutched onto him; he had shifted back to human, and his body was badly riddled with holes from the bullet attacks as he shifted back. The entire forest had gone silent from her piercing scream as hot tears spilled from her eyes as she held Hayden’s body in her trembling arms. “Why? Why, after what I’d done to you, I deserve this instead, so why did you block that shot with your body?” "I told you, I would give my life for you," he sent down the bond. "I know I cannot fully have your heart or you in this life, but I will have you in the next," he said. Elise shook her head, her eyes filled with tears of regret and sadness. “You can pull through; I know you can; please don't do this to me,” she begged. The sky darkened, and a storm brewed closer as they lay on the ground. Rygan watched, distraught and shocked, at Hayden's bloodied body, yet his eyes scanned as he heard the humans gaining closer again. They had taken out over 40 men,

    There was no way out; Elise could barely think, and Markus' wicked laugh echoed across the room as she looked up at the monster. “You fucking monster, I will kill you!” Elise raged; the cell rattled from her anger as she pulled on her chains and tried to shift again, but her silver chains reacted, causing an unbearable burning shock down her body. He wasn’t lying about the pain from the chains. “You better respect the boss, you little bitch!” One of Newman's men rushed forward, putting his hand into the cell to grab Elise, but he’d never expected her retaliation as her teeth latched harder on his hand, grappling his fingers with her teeth till they heard a grotesque crunch. “Arghh!” The human male screams in horror, pulling out his arm to see both his index and middle finger are missing, and Elise spits them out with a snarl. “Fucking bitch!” He cries as blood settles and sputters out. Another man helps the wounded man out of the room as he screams curses at Elise's name as

    Tazmin's POV... I still cannot comprehend everything that had been revealed; how could I have been so stupid? I trusted Kaide with all my heart, my sworn brother in battle, who was always there for us. How couldn’t I have seen the brewing plan between him and Alvira? All this time I was blinded to the truth; a stupid part of me had tried to push the guilt down and had tried to get Rygan to believe that their punishment for Elise was justified. I never knew I was being brainwashed into it by my friend, whom I sought as family. But they had planned it all. And I played a part in it, a pawn in their game, and I believed Kaide time and time again when he told me Elise's body couldn’t be found; we all did, and so I stopped asking. He was the one who told me to pursue my happiness and not think of the past, who would have thought he needed me to be distracted with Vienna, who I was utterly in love with. And even as my mate Vienna’s nights were filled with tears and sorrow for he

    Back at Markus Newman's prison: . . . ••• Elise's face fell the moment she recognized that voice and the daunting silhouette that stood in the shadows. His wicked gaze and lips stretched in a smirk as he came forward and into the light. Kaide. Elise had never felt such grappling rage and hatred from seeing a person, Kaide, whom she once trusted and almost gave her love and affection to. Now she could see him as nothing less than a revolting monster standing with a wicked smile on his face. “You…” Elise muttered, and Rygan answered beside her with a low growl in response to sighting Kaide. He hissed out in response to his throbbing wound that was still healing slowly from Elise's blood, but no one was aware of it, not yet. Elise's body trembled with an unfathomable rage in her blood that boiled seeing him; it caused a lot of memories to emerge, especially when he locked her up and lied—she killed the virus baby—and how he threw her away with no hesitation. “Hello, E

    Rygan was in a rut. Elise was frozen by the fact that his body was in a rut while they were trapped in a dungeon; it was dangerous for him to be unguarded and so powerless to his feral side right now. “Elise, mate,” he grunts, his breath getting hotter as Elise approaches closer to where he sits up. She raises her arms to palm and caresses his face in her hold, feeling how warm his skin was. “Rygan, look at me. Can you control it? You have to," she mutters to him. She held his face, peering at his gaze and studying his storm-grey pupils that were now dilated and glazed with lust. His temperature was getting hotter, and it wasn’t good for the healing. “Fuck..it can't-ugh,” he groaned. Elise felt panic take over as she didn’t know what to do at that moment. If it was anything like the first time they met in that dark cell, she knew it wouldn’t take long before he completely lost himself. They were just an earshot from the door, but he couldn’t hold his lust any longer as he

    Rygan’s rut had seemingly calmed from their five minutes of pleasure, and now his mind felt clearer with each passing minute. “I think I have a plan that can get us out of here,” she said to him. The tiredness in his gaze cleared; they knew there was no time to spare. “You might not like it, but you only need to trust me, and no matter what, don’t stop me,” she muttered to Rygan as she relayed the plan to him. As he fully understood it, the plan was set in place. Elise crept up slowly to the barred window; one of the bars was weakened and shaky, almost undone. She prayed the guards were occupied enough as she dug in slowly, hoping the metal wouldn't make a sound. Rygan was her lookout as she watched the shadows pass, but “Someone is coming, El; you need to get down,” he warned. “I’ve almost got it,” she whispered back. Even as her hands burned from exerting a bit of strength, she didn’t care as this was their only chance. “El!” He barked again. And just in the nick of time

    When Kaide left the dungeon, he felt like an accomplished man who had finally gotten his revenge; now his only problem left was how he was going to bring Taz to his side. And if Taz didn’t join and accept him as the new king, he would have to kill him. He took each stride with pride and a wicked smile on his face, recalling the look of despair on their faces and how distraught they were about their son. Revenge was so sweet it was almost too perfect. But he didn’t need to worry about them anymore, now that they'd be dead by sunrise. "Well, if it isn’t the man of the hour,” Newman's drunk voice called as he rushed his drink to cheer the minute Kaide entered the door. He tried his best not to squirm or squint his nose away from the intrusion of different scents around the table. Now it was filled with women and the smell of sex; they all lounged on the sofas, drunk and lavished on the expensive wine that Newman had to offer.

  • Rejected and claimed by the alpha beast    Epilogue

    (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
