Rejected Chapter 137 - Carrying On
Elizabeth POV “Why?” I ask. “Why what?” my father replies. “Why would they attack? Why would it matter who the leader was?” I ask trying to understand. “The way it works is if a family member of the current King or Queen does not take over, then the position is up for grabs, if you will. It means there would be a fight to the bitter end so that the victor would take over,” he shares with me. “If you thought your cousin and uncle were bad, you cannot imagine what lingers outside these walls,” my mother says with a shiver. My father rubs his hand up and down her arm comforting her. “But that will not happen. We have you back and you will ensure the Kingdom carries on under our leadership,” my father says with a smile. “Are you out of your minds? How does it make sense that I would take over a Kingdom? And what about my mate?” I ask them both. “Carter can move here and rule with you,” my mother says as if it is most logical. “What if he does
Rejected Chapter 138 - Threat
Alpha Carter POV “Nobody talks to the Luna, without me knowing why,” I say to him calmly. “Suffice it to say it is serious,” the rogue replies. “Not good enough,” I say to him as I stand to walk away. “They are coming for her,” he says in a hushed voice. I slowly turn around, “Who?” I ask. “All of them,” he says quickly not wanting anyone to hear him. I look to Stan who shrugs equally confused by this rogue’s behaviour. He is not a normal, cocky rogue. He seems genuine which is a total conflict when you think of a rogue. “What do you mean?” I ask sitting back down in the seat. “They know she is the next Queen of the Kingdom. They want to take her out so they can start the war on the Kingdom,” he says. I look at him bewildered at what he is telling me. “Why would her not being there cause a war?” I ask. “She is the key. If she is not there, war in inevitable,” he replies. I sit back in my chair. He seems legit and her parents have been
Rejected Chapter 139 - Discussions
Elizabeth POV The past couple of weeks have been a whirlwind. My parents have been giving me as much education as my brain could handle when it came to royalty protocols and politics. They hired a private tutor to help me with building some foundational skills that I had lacked in my education. I spoke with Carter daily. The conversations were tense, but I would not miss them. I was still hurt that it was better for me to be away than there helping with the rogue attacks. The rogue attacks were ongoing but seemed less intense. Alpha Kyle had sent some of his warriors to support the efforts. Carter was on his way to see me. He should be here within a couple of hours. We had things to discuss. I was anxious as I had no idea what he wanted to talk about. I know my parents wanted to talk to him about the opportunities that are here for him if he chose to come to the Kingdom to rule with me. As I had told them, I still was not ready
Rejected Chapter 140 - Reconnecting
Elizabeth POV Hearing someone clear their throat, I reluctantly released Carter’s lips stepping back slightly in his arms. My parents are both smiling, as I look at them and back to Carter. I do not let Carter go, having missed him so much. I am afraid I am dreaming. But I know from the sparks and his scent, that he is real. “We will leave you two alone,” my mother says as she nudges my father down the hall. We step into my mother’s office and shut the door locking the world out. I look at Carter and simply move into his arms again. His arms are open to receive me as he lifts me up. I wrap my legs around his waist, and he moves us back to the loveseat. Sitting down I am straddling him, and simply lock onto his lips once again. I move down slowly to kiss his mark. My mark nestled strongly between his neck and his shoulder. He groans, “I have missed you so much,” he murmurs as I move to kiss the base of his throat, “I think I missed you more
Rejected Chapter 141 - Breaking the Bond
Elizabeth POV After a long night of just the two of us, we enjoyed supper and breakfast in bed. Just now deciding it was time to get moving and start the day even though it was almost noon. Carter and I had reconnected on every level, and it felt good to be home. That is what Carter was to me. Home. Before we leave the room Carter takes me into his arms, “Now you know whatever happens, I love you right?” he asks me. I look at him confused, “What do you mean?” I reply. “Nothing. I just always want you to know I love you and that I have your best interests at heart,” he says. “I do not like where this is heading,” I reply trying to disengage from his arms. He holds me tighter, not wanting to let go. “What have you already decided?” I demand of him. He shakes his head, “Nothing. I just want you to listen with an open mind,” he replies as he releases me, quickly taking my hand and leading me out of my room. I have a bad feeling a
Rejected Chapter 142 - The Key
Alpha Carter POV Elizabeth jumps to her feet, screaming at her father. “What the hell are you talking about? You promised I would not have to give Carter up. You swore you understood what a mate bond meant to me,” she says as she starts to walk towards the door. “Where are you going?” the King bellows at his daughter. “As far away from you as possible,” she replies as she walks out the door slamming it shut behind her. “What the hell are you playing at, Ethan?” Queen Erin demands of her mate. “I am not playing at anything, Erin. You know damn well that this Kingdom is at risk. We need her to be focused on the task at hand,” he replies to his mate angrily. “Not this way. We never agreed that she would have to give up her mate,” the Queen says to her mate. “I will not do it,” I reply to them both. The Queen looks to me with respect in her eyes. “I cannot break the bond with Elizabeth. I will not break the bond,” I say to them both. The Ki
Rejected Chapter 143 - Witches Council
Elizabeth POV “Do you know any witches, Carter?” I murmur as I stare at my brother. He laughs out loud, “What?” not clear where I am going. I explain to him what has happened so far, and he looks at me surprised. “Your father has not been able to get someone here yet?” he questions. I nod, “Odd right?” I ask. “Very,” he replies before adding, “Give me a few minutes and I will make a call,” he says as he stands to make that call. I continue to look at my brother and I realize I can see his eyelids moving. As if he is watching a movie. “I wish you would visit me again. I need your advice,” I say to him as I watch his movements. Carter finishes his call but before he can tell me anything the door to Eric’s room opens and my father walks in with my mother close on his heels. “I owe you both an apology,” my father starts to say before I cut him off. “Your words mean very little to me at this point,” I say to him moving closer to Carter. Carter
Rejected Chapter 144 - Meeting Miranda
Elizabeth POV After our walk we head inside to get an early supper. We are expecting the witch the Council is sending in a couple of hours. Her name is Miranda. The Witch would be accompanied by her mate. I could appreciate why. It is risky coming into unknown territory particularly when spells are involved. I did not know a lot about witches, but I expected to learn a lot in the coming hours. My parents joined us for supper. It was a quiet meal. My father saying nothing and my mother offering very little to the conversation. Carter and I mostly spoke of what had been happening at the Crescent Moon Pack. He shared some funny stories that his Gamma had to deal with in our absence. And of course, we all talked about the rogue situation. “How do they not know where you are?” I ask Carter. “I took an alternate route when I left the Pack. Anyone following me was lost along the way,” he shares with us. “Well let’s hope you did not give up my

Rejected Epilogue
Elizabeth’s POV The past six months had been a rush of emotions. Watching CJ grow was unbelievable. He was growing fast already walking. He was ahead of the normal schedule of children, but we have realized our boy was special beyond what we could even fathom at this point. We loved him and would keep him a child as long as we could. Stan and Kinsley had a beautiful little girl. She was two months old. CJ loved little Leslie from the moment he saw her. He always went to see her before anyone else got a chance to say hello to her. He always touched her face softly giving her little kisses. We all joked wouldn’t it be cute if they were mates when they grew up. Eric had not found his mate yet. He had just returned home from a two-month search but with no luck. He was still hopeful, but I could tell he was somewhat disappointed that his search had not yielded him success yet. I kept encouraging him as best I could even to the point of suggest
Rejected Chapter 181 - A King is Born
Elizabeth POV I had been in labour for a while now. I had started pushing an hour ago. I knew I was having a big baby boy, but I do not think anything prepared me for this. Ashley was throwing all her strength into me. I was getting exhausted and angry. Carter was both amazing and annoying at the same time. His words of encouragement were endearing, but I really wanted to punch him in the nuts so he would have a sense of how ridiculous his words really were. The past few months had been a whirlwind. I had survived the two weeks of bed rest. My mother had brought me a lot of things to work on during that time. And I was healthy and given the nod to go back to regular activities with normal precautions. Before I knew it the time had flown by and here, I was birthing my first pup. The rate I was going this could be my last one. “One more push, my Queen,” the doctor says encouragingly. I take a deep breath and push with all my might. With th
Rejected Chapter 180 - Slow Down
Carter POV I gently pick Elizabeth up in my arms. “Elizabeth,” I repeat but she does not respond. There are snarls and cries of pain as I turn to see what is happening. The two sisters are fighting. The warriors are standing by ready to jump in to assist the former Queen. But all respect her need to fight her sister for all that she stole from her. I watch helplessly as I see Elizabeth’s mother toss her sister in the air. As she comes down her mother reaches for her aunt and slams her into the ground. All you could hear was a yelp and the crushing of bones. “How dare you ever think you had a right to destroy my life! How dare you steal a child from her parents! How dare you steal so much from my mate! You deserve so much more but it is time for you to die!” the former Queen yells. Her sister is begging for her life, but the former Queen will hear nothing of it. She moves forward and places her sister’s head in her hands. She starts twist
Rejected Chapter 179 - Lifeline
Elizabeth POV “You!” I scream. I am staring in shock at the person in front of me. “Where did you come from?” I demand as I move to cover Carter’s body. He was defenceless and I would not sit back while someone attacked us. “Surprised to see me?” the person asks. “I am surprised you are still alive,” I say as I move into position in the event they attacked. Moving towards me, “But daughter dearest, I have missed you,” she replies. “You are not my mother,” I spit at her. “My someone is feisty,” she says with a smirk. “Who knew you had it in you?” she asks. “You knew all along,” I say to her. “What kind of sick monster does what you did?” I ask her. “I would like to know that myself,” a voice from behind me says. I turn to see my mother and a group of warriors behind me. I turn around and smirk at the woman in front of me who has managed to get closer to me. “The kind of woman who was sick of her sister getting everything she wanted,” my a
Rejected Chapter 178 - Names
Elizabeth POV The last two weeks had been a blur. We had an amazing feast the night of our coronation, and then we were in the whirlwind of handing over responsibilities for the Kingdom. Carter and I were both sitting in my office on the couch that I had brought in. I had my feet in Carter’s lap as he rubbed them. “Mmmm that feels good,” I murmur as my eyes half close. We had just finished another gruelling day of learning and needed a few minutes to ourselves before we went to supper with those who lived in the Palace. We had started that last week. Carter missed having meals with his Pack, so we started that tradition. Those living within the Palace loved the idea and had embraced being a part of a bigger family. It did not mean everyone joined every night, but it gave people options. The cooking team loved it as well. They got to serve people more than just waiting for a special event. Carter starts to massage up my calve m
Rejected Chapter 177 Royal Shift
Alpha Carter POV “I am back!” I hear in my mind. “Max?” I ask tentatively through our mind-link. “It is me,” he replies excitedly. “I am so grateful to have you back,” I reply. “Me too. Wherever I was it was a very dark and lonely place,” he shares with me. I want to hear exactly what he remembers happening but the Elder in front of me clears his throat. “May we continue Alpha?” he asks. I nod telling Max I want all the details. Knowing we were in the middle of a ceremony and his mate was beside him was enough to settle him. Having completed the transfer of blood, I take Elizabeth’s hand in mine and give it a squeeze. She smiles excitedly, knowing Max was back. The third Elder comes forward. “And now we will do the transfer of the crowns signifying the future,” he says as the King and Queen move forward. Each kneel before the Elder and their crowns are removed for the last time. Both are holding hands as the removal takes place. You c
Rejected Chapter 176 - I'm Back
Alpha Carter POV As Elizabeth and I walked up the aisle, I could not help but become a little nostalgic. Thinking about where we had been to where we are now. Having overcome so many hurdles. So many things that seemed against us being together. But here we were … about to become Queen and King of the Kingdom. I had never aspired to become King. It had never been something I had remotely considered. Having met with the current King this week and learned more about what he did and the opportunities I would have to make a difference in the wolf community excited me. And now I felt like a fool for fighting so hard against it. I could feel Elizabeth’s small hand on my arm as we walked up the aisle following her parents. I could feel the stares and the excitement in the room for the future. For the next generation to take over. What I felt stressed about was my inability to shift tonight. The people present knew of my injury and were advised as
