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 Chapter 145 - Answers
Elizabeth POV The tension as we made our way towards the hospital was becoming suffocating. As much as we were in the open, my father’s aura was impacting us. I could feel it. The only one who seemed unbothered was Miranda. She maintained her cool, while my mother looked to my father confused by his behaviour. “So, tell me about Eric,” Miranda says as we approach the hospital entrance. “He was always an inquisitive little boy. Loved everything and everyone,” my mother beams. “He is very artistic,” my mother adds. I hear my father scoff. When I look at him, he looks away from me not wanting to be heard. “He sounds like a lovely young man,” Miranda says as we come to the doors of the hospital. “Hmmm,” Miranda says as she approaches the doors. “It seems there is already some spell casting at the doors of the hospital. That is peculiar,” she murmurs as she moves closer like she is examining something. She reaches out to touch some
Rejected Chapter 146 - Binding Spell
Elizabeth POV I watch as my father’s conflicted emotions fight to come through. He knows too many are watching and Miranda’s mate is a force to be reckoned with. Not that my father was without power, but with Miranda’s powers as well it would be difficult to fight them both. He stands taller, “Of course I want to know what is affecting my son. What a ridiculous question,” he replies trying to belittle Miranda. She is unbothered by his comment and moves back into the room. “We are going to remove the spell tonight,” she says as she moves to stand in front of Eric. “Tonight?” my father questions, “Why tonight?” he adds. “I believe evil is involved in this situation. Someone does not want Eric to wake … ever,” she says shocking everyone. “Why?” I ask confused. “That is a question for the person responsible to answer,” Miranda replies saddened by the situation. “For now, I will need space. You can wait in the hall, or you can go back to your r
Rejected Chapter 147 - Imposter
Miranda POV I feel myself move from my body and linger over Eric’s still form. I stare down looking for the starting point of the binding spell. It takes a lot of time not only to find the beginning but then to unravel without setting off anything made to deter me from being successful. All witches have fail safes within their spells to prevent others from breaking their spell. In this case I have been breaking spells since I was very young. Too young. I had been working with the Witches Council since my pre-teens. I had been, and still am, the youngest to have been recruited to work for the Council. I chuckle, I was not recruited – it was demanded of me by my mother who works with the Council to this day. She saw my talent and would not allow me to spend my youth having fun. I was working and missing out on a childhood. Regardless, it made me who I am today. Which is powerful. I continue to scrutinize the web in front of me. I finally
Rejected Chapter 148 - Someone Will Pay
Miranda POV I started working on breaking the spell two hours ago. I can feel Eric trying to help but in his current state he cannot move so he can’t see what I see. One wrong move and we would both be dead. It is painstakingly slow work. I have already taken multiple breaks using Rick to help me gain enough energy to continue on. This time I fall from Eric’s body and simply fall into Rick’s arms. “You need to take a break,” Rick murmurs as he holds onto me tightly. I nod, unable to respond. “I will see if we can get a cot brought in here. We do not have to leave Eric alone. You simply need to sleep,” he observes as he sets me down in the chair, kissing my forehead before he goes. Rick steps out of the room and I hear him call for Carter. I can hear them speaking softly but do not hear the words. I lean forward putting my hand on Eric’s. He quickly holds onto my hand, and I get the sense he is saying thank you. Part of his body has been
Rejected Chapter 149 - Let Me Go
Alpha Carter POV I walk into the hospital room looking at the imposter. I know Elizabeth is safe with her mother just outside the door. I look at the man in the bed and simply stare at him. He stares back. “What do you want?” he growls. I look at him and smirk. “I do not want anything from you, except the truth,” I reply as I pull a chair up beside his bed. Not too close. I cannot trust the man in front of me. “You think you deserve the truth?” he snarls. “No, I think Elizabeth and the Queen deserve the truth,” I respond calmly. “Everything was fine without you in the picture. When I am full capacity, you can bet I am coming for you first,” he says to me. “I welcome the opportunity,” I reply pissing him off even more. “I want to see the Queen,” the man says. “No,” I reply. “Who do you think you are to deny me? If I do not speak with her, I will have the King killed immediately,” he says. I look at him realizing he is telling the truth
Rejected Chapter 150 - Broken Spell
Elizabeth POV I look to the man in the bed and simply feel pain. The pain that I had thought I had met my father. Then I thought so terribly of the man because of his reactions. “Why?” I ask him. He looks at me as if just realizing I was in the room. “Why what?” he asks softly. “Why did you do all of this?” I ask. “It is not your time to know. Suffice it to say you were never meant to return home,” he says as if dismissing me. “What do you mean?” I ask confused. “Exactly what I said. You were never supposed to return. You were supposed to be dead by now,” he replies as I gasp at the hatred coming from him. “Why?” I ask. “Do you think this was all coincidence, Elizabeth? We all knew what you were. We needed you to be removed from the Kingdom. You had the potential at being the strongest ruler this Kingdom has ever experienced,” he spits out. “I now realize you are too weak to be that ruler,” he adds. “He made you weak,” he spits out l
Rejected Chapter 151 - Eric's Back
Eric POV I felt my eyes fly open. I could not believe it. She had done it. I was awake. Wait. I saw her collapsed into her mate’s arms. “Will she be alright?” I whisper having not used my voice for so long. The man was putting his mate into the bed across the room from me. “She will be,” he mutters before standing and looking at me. “How are you feeling?” the man asks me. “Well rested?” I reply with some self-deprecating humour. The man smiles, “My name is Rick,” he says before he moves towards me passing me a bottle of water. I take the bottle and sip at the water. “Where is everyone?” I ask confused that my mother or sister was not here. “I am going to go get them and find out where I can take Miranda to rest,” Rick says as he steps out of the room. I want to stand and be ready for when my family comes in, but I know my legs are not strong enough. I have so much to share with them, I am eager to share and do my best to protect th

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
