Rejected Chapter 23 - Sparks
Alpha Carter POV I woke slowly with the feeling of sparks against my chest. I pulled the sparks closer to me, realizing that at some point in the night Elizabeth had naturally gravitated towards my body. I could tell from her breathing she was in a deep sleep, and I was reluctant to wake her. This morning was my turn to lead the training sessions. I had been away for a few days getting everything straightened out with Elizabeth, and I was feeling the burden of ensuring my Pack trusted that I was present for them. I gently removed her arm from around my waist, but she moved back whimpering at being moved. Her hand travelled across my chest and down towards the waistband of my shorts. I quickly grabbed her hand stopping her in her tracks. I was already sporting morning excitement; her touch would be more painful to endure. With my mate so close, it was hard to not mark and mate her. I needed to be patient, but I did not know how long I could ho
Rejected Chapter 24 - Outcomes
Elizabeth POV I could not believe it. Carter had betrayed me. He talked to Tamara before talking to me. She was not a psychologist. She would not know how to help me. It hurt me immensely that Carter had betrayed me. I turned the shower on and quickly went through my routine. As I got out and dried my body off, I realized I had forgotten to bring any clothes in with me. Wrapping the towel tightly around my body, I unlock the door and walk out of the room and head towards the closet. Before I can get there, Carter latches onto my wrist pulling me back to him. “Not so fast, sweet mate,” he says before his lips capture mine. He softly kisses me, before stepping back slightly. “Good morning,” he says as he holds his arms loosely around my body. I try to push him away, but he is not budging. “Let me go,” I reply as he shakes his head no. “Not until we finish this conversation,” he says as he steps back pulling me towards the bed. He sits me
Rejected Chapter 25 - Courage
Alpha Carter POV That was a tough discussion I had with Elizabeth. I could not share everything with her. The reality is if I take another as my Luna, then Elizabeth will inevitably become a mate to have pups with. No matter what I do to make her my priority, I would be expected to take the chosen Luna to events, subsequently moving Elizabeth to nothing in the Pack’s eyes. I could not let that happen. She needed to get stronger. I would do all within my power to make that happen. I finish in the washroom and wrap a towel around my hips. I need to get dressed and discuss Alpha Matt and the plans to charge them as a Pack with Elizabeth. Walking out of the bathroom, I see Elizabeth is ready to go. “Are you hungry this morning, sweet mate?” I ask her hoping her appetite is growing. “A little,” she replies deep in thought. I quickly get dressed and walk out to give her a hug and another kiss. She quickly opens her mouth to me, and I deepen our
Rejected Chapter 26- Scars
Elizabeth POV The interview had been gruelling. We spent hours discussing everything that had happened since I had been taken into the Pack house. I could tell Carter and his wolf were very upset, but I ignored them trying to get the Council members to finish the interview. As they were wrapping up, they asked if I had any pictures of the abuse. I looked at them in shock, as Carter growled. “I only have scars,” I reply quietly. “Why would you ask that?” Carter demands from the chair beside me. Our knees were touching, and he held my hand the entire time. This brought me comfort during the tough discussion. “Please understand Alpha, we are only looking for additional evidence to use in our case against the Red Woods Pack,” the Council member leading the investigation replied. “You have us as having witnessed the abuse when she was being whipped,” he says angrily. “You have the Elders having witnessed the abuse as well; is that not enough?” he
Rejected Chapter 27 - Meeting the Pack
Alpha Carter POV Before I knew it, suppertime had arrived. I could tell with Elizabeth; her nerves were starting to get the better of her. I wanted to introduce her at the beginning of the meal so that she would hopefully be okay to eat afterwards. She was pacing in our suite, while I finished changing into black slacks and a grey dress shirt. Cuffing the sleeves up my arms, she turns to look at me. She is wearing a black sleeveless shift dress with a black sweater over it. She looks perfect and I cannot wait to kiss her lips when she puts up her hand stopping me from moving. “I just got this lip gloss on. You are not ruining it,” she murmurs as she continues to pace. I chuckle taking her into my arms. Her back is against my chest, and I nuzzle her marking spot. I hear her gasp, as I inhale her amazing scent. She leans into me rubbing her hands over my arms. “You are perfect, and everything will be perfect tonight,” I promise he
Rejected Chapter 28 - A Bath?
Elizabeth POV I was sure I was glowing; I had been overwhelmed with the response to Carter announcing me as his mate. Many had come over to welcome me to the Pack, which surprised me. Going from an Omega slave to being treated like a human being was difficult for me to comprehend. I still had my reservations, but for today, I was going to embrace this new day. After supper, we hung out in the lounge with Stan and Kinsley. Tamara had been invited but she excused herself quickly, wanting to get back to her patients. We decided to watch a movie. They had been shocked, initially, that I had limited knowledge of what movies were. I vaguely remember watching them with my parents when I was younger, but these past years had been about being abused, cleaning, cooking and being abused some more. I did not want to cause any upset, so I suggested Kinsley pick out something she thought I would like. It was a romantic comedy. The guys groaned at having t
Rejected Chapter 29 - About You
Elizabeth POV Carter’s hand continues to roam down my flat stomach. He lifts my leg out of the water and rests it on the edge of the tub. I cannot understand why until he moves the cloth intimately between my legs. I tense up, “Relax, sweet mate,” Carter murmurs as he continues to wash me. He is gentle, focusing on cleaning the entire area. Before I realize it, it is only Carter’s fingers on me. The cloth is floating away. He is exploring my most personal area and all I can do is gasp for air. I know I am feeling so many emotions. I do not know what is normal, but I am feeling very warm. “Do you like that, little mate?” he asks me. I open my legs a little wider, moaning, “Yes, I want more,” I reply. He is satisfied with the response as his hand slowly leaves my body. He begins to rinse the soap off me before giving himself a quick wash. I want to help him, but he shakes his head, “This is about you, sweetheart,” he says with a smile.

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
