Rejected love: Second chance mate Chapter 27
Alpha Ramsey’s POV I clenched my hands angrily as I look at the dead body laying on the floor before me, who could have done this and this could lead to provocation of war between the two packs? I tilted my head and look at everyone in the ball, they all look scared and I wasn’t sure who could have done this, “I said who did this!”I roar again and most people whimpered. There were murmurs between the people and I am sure they weren’t expecting this too. “What happened?”I heard my mother ask and I tilted my head to look at her, she gasped when she saw the dead body on the floor, her eyes darted around before it fell on me. I had invited everyone across the pack to come for the party and Alpha Noah send one of his trusted men to the pack which was good because I didn’t want him to meet Astra also I can’t extend my invitation to everyone in the other packs without inviting him“Excuse me alpha,” a guard said and I tilted my head to look at the guard “What is it?”I asked, my eyes bur

Astra’s POV I have never been so shaken like the way I was with what happened at the ball, I had expected everything but I haven’t expected someone to die and the blame will almost be pushed on me. My hands were still quivering and it felt like my body doesn’t want to relax even after alpha Ramsey showed her believes me.An investigation was going on and I was in my room, laying in my bed, and found nothing fun to go out to, I wanted Alpha Ramsey to find the culprit as soon as possible so that I can be free and people can stop laying accusing gazes on me, the word has spread fast across the whole pack and people are busy murmuring and talking about it. I had so many regrets about that night, maybe I shouldn’t have gone out for the ball or maybe I should have run away when alpha Ramsey mentioned Vera, I don’t know what to think about anymore but I just wished I never had an encounter with Simon. I breathe out deeply and squeeze my eyes shut hoping I could have a good sleep and calm

Vera’s POV I have been restless ever since Alpha Ramsey noticed the blood on my dress, how could he have seen something as tiny as that? I felt agitated and I don’t know what to do. I know I would be in trouble if he finds anything against me. I haven’t gone out of my room for those days now and Luna Eleanor hasn’t come over to check on me which made me feel glad. I sighed and switched off the shower and came out of the bathroom. I sat down on my dressing table and look at myself in the mirror, I decided to dress up and go outside today and don’t make myself look suspicious, I love how all attention is on Astra and how the maids have told me people were busy talking about her and calling her the culprit around the pack. It made me happy and I know the attention will never be on me. I pull out of my drawer looking through my belongings when I suddenly remembered the ring I wore to the ball and my necklace, I didn’t return it back and it wasn’t in my box of jewelry in the drawer. I

Alpha Noah’s POV I was shocked when Alpha Ramsey called me to inform me about the death of Simon. I had received the invitation from Alpha Ramsey to the ball he hosted recently and h wasn’t in a good mood to attend any ball so I asked Simon to go which he eagerly accepted. I haven’t expected his corpse will be brought back to the pack, I breathe out deeply rehearsing my words in my head. I decided to visit Simon's family to show my condolences. I stepped inside his home, his wife and kids now before me immediately and I raise my head to stop them. “It’s fine!”I said and they sat down. I sat down on one of the sofas, the guards guarding were standing both on my left and right-hand side.“I am sorry about the lost of your husband and father, I hadn’t expected him to die and I promise you, I will take care of your needs and children, the pack will make sure they feed well and acquire things their father would have given to them,” I said and Simon’s wife and kids bow before me. “Thank

ALPHA RAMSEY'S POVI kissed her, my body leaped for joy. I had just gotten double relief and happiness. The moments in her arms, when my lips touched hers. It was heavenly. "If only I could have her to myself without any circumstantial problems or issues," I thought to myself. A thought of Luna Eleanor entered my head and I immediately felt angry and irritated. I imagined how she must have felt to find out Astra wasn't the perpetrator of what she had accused her of. I knew her pride wouldn't even let her stop by for an apology, but the knowledge of victory was more than satisfying for me, and knowing Astra had been exonerated was peace. I felt sober about Simon and Vera's death, less for Vera's death because that could have been Astra, and well, she wouldn't have cared to spill the truth. The reason she had killed Simon still felt vague and it felt as though we were missing an important motive. The thought of Astra being the one who had died disturbed me for a bit, the courtroom

ASTRA'S POVI watched Alpha Ramsey leave my room that morning, after he made me his, and the two of us shared a bed. It was a delightful thought knowing I was him and he was mine. I groaned with pleasure, squinting as the sunlight filtered through the window above my head. I fell back and on my bed and smiled deeply. I felt peace and a sense of achievement. The door to my chamber opened again and I watched him come in. Flashes from the last night replayed in my head and I remembered every tiny detail of the coupling we did last night, his body against mine. It was something I couldn't obliterate from my memory."You have a smile plastered on your face, mind telling me the good news?" He asked me, entering with some food on a tray. I tried my best to hide the sheepish smile that had surfaced on my face as I looked at him one more time. I only managed to mumble a quiet "No."He shrugged. "Here's breakfast anyway, I caught up with a cook on my way out and had them make something for

Kylie's POVI was in my room, pacing to and fro in agitation. My heart was restless and it beat with hatred for Astra. It was appalling how fast I'd come to detest her: from the way she used to walk around the house like she owned it, to the way Noah used to treat her as though she was the most special thing in the world.The mere sight of them together all those months back had made me want to pull my hair out in frustration.I paused my pacing and glanced down at myself. What did Astra have that I didn't? I couldn't deny that she was extremely beautiful, but I was too, wasn't I? And I had the upper hand by being of royal blood and pure ancestry.Noah had rejected her fair and square. He had fallen for the lies I had cooked against Astra, and he had banished her too. But why was he still so smitten by her? Why did he have her name on his lips in his every waking moment? Why?At least I was carrying his child. If that wasn't enough hold on the alpha, I didn't know what was.My anger f

Alpha Noah's POV...On the morning of my wolf mating ceremony with Kylie, I woke at the first crack of dawn. My room was bathed in soft shades of orange. The world outside was cheerful and bright, as though mocking the turmoil I felt inside.I hadn't had enough good sleep. Goddess, my dreams had been punctuated by thoughts after thoughts of Astra.I groaned and sat up, then turned to find Kylie still asleep beside me, her features peaceful in slumber. As I gazed at her, a mixture of emotions churned within me. The day had arrived—one that was supposed to mark a new beginning for both of us. Yet, my heart remained haunted by the ghost of another woman.Astra, the woman I had banished, still lingered in my thoughts. I squeezed my eyes shut, then pulled it away from her sleeping form almost painfully. The accusations that had driven Astra and I apart felt like a betrayal of our bond, a chain that tugged at my heart with every beat. I knew this union with Kylie was necessary, that the pac

Ramsey's POVSix months later...."Ramsey, the contractions are getting harder!"My head shot up at the sound of Astra's voice. I turned back to see her sprawled on the bed: legs wide, face full of fear, and my own heart jumped in fright.I turned back to Colin. "Find the pack's physician, stat!" I ordered. "Tell him the Luna's contractions have started.""On it." Colin replied, then gave me a short bow and turned to leave the room.I turned and crossed the room to my luna in two quick strides. I slipped to my knees, crouching before the bed and gripping her hand tight."You'll be fine," I whispered in reassurance. "Remember our breathing lessons....""Oh, Ramsey!" Astra wailed as tears slipped down her cheeks. Her fingers gripped mine, as I pushed all my strength and resilience into her.I stayed with Astra until Colin burst into the room again, followed by the pack's physician and a few frantic wolf nurses. "Step aside, Alpha!" The physician called out, pushing past me to crouch be

At that point, I had absolutely no doubt that this woman absolutely hated me.I couldn't help but feel a profound sense of unease as she walked towards the stand meant for the accused, her head regal and her eyes full of a sense of pride.She paused halfway to the stand, and her eyes fell on her son. "You are an absolute disgrace to me, the royal family and this entire pack!" She spat."Move on, mother!" Ramsey snapped, and she continued walking.Ramsey remained standing at the head of the courtroom, his gaze locked onto his mother with a mix of anger, disappointment, and sorrow. The air in the room felt heavy with the weight of the accusation, and I couldn't imagine the turmoil he must be feeling, torn between his loyalty to his pack and his blood ties to his mother."Let the trial begin!" Ramsey declared, his voice firm, as his eyes roamed around the room.The Council of Wolves, along with the gathered pack members, watched with bated breath as the trial commenced. Lady Eleanor stoo
Rejected love: Second chance mate Chapter 65
Astra's POVThe dining hall seemed to close in around us as Ramsey jumped into action, his protective instincts in full force. I watched as the maid promptly went to her knees, pure fear on every inch of her pale face.My heart beat with fear and disgust at the maid's behaviour. Fear about the fact that someone, somewhere wanted me dead, and disgust at the homicidal behaviour of the young maid. I could not imagine that someone who had served me a plate of food could actually attempt to have me killed.I stared down at the plate of food before me—the lamb chops of death. A sudden wave of anger came over me as I glanced up at the maid again, and I swore right there and then to end whoever had tried to have me killed.The maid was practically trembling now, drop after drop of tears falling from her eyes. "Please...." She whispered. "Alpha, please show mercy!""You do not deserve mercy!" Noah snarled, the bridge of his nose crinkling with barely-concealed anger. I watched, my heart still

Astra's POVI was alone in my room, the moonlight streaming in through the windows, casting a soft glow on the walls. My hands gently cradled my swollen belly, the life within me kicking and squirming as if in response to the turmoil that had enveloped me.The silence of the night was broken only by the soft rustling of leaves outside, and for a brief moment, I allowed myself to drift into the memories of happier times, when the weight of secrets and betrayal had not yet burdened our hearts.For some reason, my thoughts drifted to Noah. I sighed as I stared out of the window of my room, my eyes darting across the moonlit courtyard. Noah had been absent from my thoughts for a long time: I wondered why I would suddenly think about him now. My heart had healed since he banished me from the pack, and Ramsey had mended the pieces, filling my life with love and happiness. Ramsey was the one who truly mattered now.So why was I still thinking about Noah?I shook my head, relentlessly trying

Noah's POVMy actions were purely driven by anger and hurt, and it had led to a brutal end. I had taken a life, and there was no turning back.But slowly, I felt all my guilt ebb out of me. All I was left with was sadness and a brutal, heavy emptiness.The garden lay in ruins around me, a reflection of the turmoil within my heart. I knew I had to confront Kylie, to face the woman who had hidden such a devastating secret from me. My steps were heavy as I turned to the carriage drive that was waiting for me at the end of the garden. "Alpha...." He stuttered as I walked towards him. I could see concern and a glaring fear in his eyes. Whether he was scared of me or scared of something else, I had absolutely no idea.When I didn't say anything in response, he continued. "What should I do about the.....the body?"I waved a dismissive hand. "Do away with it, somehow.....""Alright." He nodded, then turned and walked ti the carriage. He opened the door and held it open for me.In silence, I

Noah's POVMy world seemed to shatter around my ears at Kenneth's revelation. The words hung in the air like a death sentence, a heavy weight that crushed my chest, stealing the breath from my lungs. I released my grip on Kenneth, stumbling back in shock, my heart pounding in my ears."What... what did you just say?" I stammered, my voice trembling with disbelief.Kenneth straightened his clothing, a smug satisfaction still dancing in his eyes. "You heard me right, Alpha. That child is mine.""Liar!" I screamed, shaking my head in denial. "You are a crazy, pathetic liar!"Kenneth grinned again, as though he was relishing my anguish. "You want it to be a lie. Deep down, you want to paint me as this crazy lunatic who lies his way through every tight situation. But think about it, Alpha. Think."I cast my mind back, trying to think about the circumstances of Kylie's pregnancy. Kenneth continued. "Has that pregnancy ever felt like yours for even one second? Have you ever felt any real con

Noah's POVAs I watched Kylie leave the room, a growing sense of unease settled over me like a heavy cloud. When she got to the door, she turned as though she was about to say something else. But I knew, deep down, that whatever she said would be far from allaying the fears inside of me.Her words had been convincing, but something in her eyes had hinted at a deeper truth, something she was keeping from me. I couldn't shake the feeling that there was more to this situation than met the eye.The scars from my previous heartbreak still lingered, and I couldn't bear the thought of being hurt by a loved one once again. My soul and my mental health had barely healed from the scars left from the whole issue with Astra.I wanted peace, but it seemed as though the harder I tried, the farther it was from me.A small part of me wanted to dig deeper, to uncover the truth behind that strange man, but another part of me dreaded what I might find. What if his name wasn't really Julian? What if Kyl

.Kylie's POVOh, Goddess!The silence that fell at that moment felt so strong, almost tangible. I could feel it pressing against me, could feel the shock and curiosity moving from Noah in palpable waves.Noah's eyes moved to Kenneth, then back to me, then to Kenneth again. "Who is this man, Kylie?" He asked, his eyes never leaving Kenneth's face.My heart pounded in my chest as I turned to face him, my mind racing for an explanation. Noah's eyes darted between Kenneth and me, suspicion etched across his features. I had to tread carefully, to ensure that the carefully constructed facade I had built didn't crumble before my eyes. The consequences of this encounter could be disastrous, not just for me but for the entire pack.Any little wrong word, and I could as well be placing my own head on the chopping block myself.Kenneth chose that moment to strut forward, his shoulders raised. There was a mocking smirk on his face as he bowed low. "Alpha Noah," he greeted, his voice laced with

Kylie's POVWhen Noah was done, I felt him pull away, a sigh slipping from his lips. I lay against the cold, hard surface of the table for long seconds, as the memories of our steamy sex lingered in my mind."Are you ever going to stand from that desk?" Noah spoke up finally, breaking the silence. "Or have I completely immobilized you with our...ah, act?"I smiled, betraying the raging emotions I felt within me. "No, Noah. I am fine. I'm just taking a moment here."I felt, rather than heard him pause. "Alright...."The room seemed to hold its breath as I listened to the soft rustle of fabric, knowing that Noah was dressing behind me. Every passing second only intensified the strange mixture of emotions swirling within me.This was happiness, I thought. This was what it felt like to own Noah, to finally have him to myself.After what felt like an eternity, I finally stood up. I turned to face Noah, who was now fully dressed. There was a poignant silence between us, a moment when words
