Chapter 97 - What Next?

Stan POV

I slept on the couch not wanting to corner Kinsley. She was terrified when we came back to our room last night. I had first tried to get her to eat, but she claimed to not have an appetite. I believe she was worried about what was going to happen when we were alone in our room.

She had been visibly shaking when we arrived. I sighed quickly advising her that she could have the bedroom. She scurried in and shut the door. I kind of chuckled as I did not even get a pillow or blanket before she shut me out. Fortunately, there was a throw on the couch, and I survived with that. And the fact that wolves ran hot, helped.

I lay there listening for any movement inside the room. I had heard her up and use the washroom earlier but nothing since. Either she went back to sleep or is paralyzed with fear. This was crazy. I had to use the washroom and could not hold on any longer. I sat up rubbing my hands across my face. I was exhausted after

  • Rejected   Chapter 98 - Who Returned?

    Alpha Carter POV “That was eventful,” I say to Elizabeth as she looks at me with a grossed out look on her face. “What?” I ask her with a smile. “She slept with him … just ew,” she says with a shiver. I burst out loud laughing, “Well it makes me very happy that does not appeal to you,” I say to her as we move around the office to see what Robert may have been looking at when we came in. “We need to get back to work,” I say to Elizabeth as I move to look at the papers that Robert had been looking at. My heart sinks as I quickly go to the secret door only to find it slightly ajar. Robert had been in here searching through papers when we stumbled upon him. He had seen the financials, but I am not sure he had enough time to know what he was looking at. “We know there is a paper trail with the financials. I am going to search through documents from that first year and see if I can find anything that indicates what the money is for,” I say to Elizab

    Stan POV “Weak points of the Pack? Who wanted that information?” I demanded of her. “I do not know,” she starts to say. “How convenient,” I say standing up to usher her out the door so I could find Kinsley. “Wait! I do not know who the head person was, but I know who I was working for,” she says to me. I pause, “And who was that?” I ask her. “The Wolf Council,” she replies almost whispering. “What are you whispering for?” I ask her. “They have ears everywhere Stan. You can never be too sure. Wasn’t the Council just here? It would take nothing for them to leave a bug,” she says looking around the room. I could not tell if she was seriously paranoid or simply adding to her performance. “Until you can tell me more, I am not willing to listen to this,” I say to her. “Now leave,” I add as she grabs my arm. I look down at her hand and she slowly removes it. “I cannot leave,” she says. “And why is that?” I ask. “If I do not come back with

  • Rejected   Chapter 100 - The Truth

    Elizabeth POV The awful scream that came from Carly startled all of us. It was clear she was in a trance … a bad dream. Tamara tries to grasp her shoulders to wake her, but Carly goes feral trying to attack her. Thomas steps in to protect Tamara but that only causes Carly more distress. Before I know what I am doing, I step forward and put my hand on her. My touch seems to calm her. She looks at me coming out of her trance and allows me to help her back under the covers. Tamara is standing on her other side with tears streaming down her cheeks. “This is all my fault,” she mutters as Thomas reassures her it is not her fault. Carly slowly looks to her side, “Tam?” she says clearly using a nickname for Tamara. “Yes, baby girl, I am here,” Tamara says taking a cautious step forward. Carly looks at her in disbelief before her face starts to crunch up in tears. “Is it really you?” she asks again when Tamara pulls her gently into her arms. Ca

    Elizabeth POV “What?” I squeak out. Carter stands and walks around to me still holding the folder. “It looks like whoever was paying is based in the Palace of the Kingdom you were stolen from,” he says trying to instill calm in his words. “Why?” I ask feeling confused with this information. “That is what we need to find out. I think it is time we start to plan to go and meet your family, Elizabeth,” Carter says to me. I look at him shaking my head no. “If they wanted me gone, I will stay gone,” I reply. I have no desire to be where people do not want me. Where people paid for the torture, I endured over the years. “We do not know what is going on. We need to know so we can neutralize any threat against you,” Carter says making complete sense. “Let’s think about it while I find out if we can plan to head back home today,” he says. I look at him with a dazed look in my eyes. He pulls me into a tight hug providing me with the support I need

  • Rejected   Chapter 102 - Remembering

    Kinsley POV I had walked off my anxiety trying to figure out why Stan was supposed to be important to me. And why a mate had suddenly turned up for him. How could I be his mate when he had one already? It hurt me to think of him with someone else. She was beautiful. Far more beautiful than I could ever hope to be. Why would he want me when he could have her? Hints of my past were starting to come back to me. I could vaguely remember another Pack. Another life. I was not one hundred percent, but I could see glimmers of my past. I could not see Stan yet, but I hoped that would come soon. I hoped it was as he said and not as it appeared after I saw that woman with him. Pack members were saying hello to me. I nodded and said hello, but I did not recognize them. I did not give any indication I did not recognize them as I did not want to cause panic among the Pack. I knew we had to have an Alpha and a Luna, but I had not seen them yet either.

  • Rejected   Chapter 103 - The Past

    Alpha Carter POV We are quickly pulling up to the Pack territory. I have brought Elizabeth up to speed as much as I know. She is aware that Kinsley’s memory is still weak. She is also aware that Stan’s ex mate has shown up. And that I have no idea why other than she usually brings trouble with her. I had never shared this with Stan, but I had been relieved when she left. She did not jive with our Pack members. She was snobby, looked down on everyone and caused more issues than not. Kinsley was a breath of fresh air and someone I wanted to keep around for many years to come. And she was good for Stan. Elizabeth takes a deep breath. “What is wrong sweetheart?” I ask taking her hand in mine. “Just worried about Kinsley. I am not sure how I would feel if someone from your past showed up. Particularly if I did not know she had existed,” she says quietly. I had not thought of it from Kinsley’s perspective. She was right. It would potentially be devasta

  • Rejected   Chapter 104 - The Wrong Victim?

    Alpha Carter Elizabeth waits impatiently to see Kinsley. She is pacing back and forth, in front of my desk, “You will wear a hole in the floor, Elizabeth,” I caution her. She frowns at me, “I do not know what to expect when I see Kinsley,” she replies as she resumes her pacing. I can hear Stan and Kinsley coming down the hall and brace myself for whatever is about to happen. Kinsley walks into the room first and moves directly to Elizabeth. She pulls her into a tight hug. Elizabeth is shocked into silence. She takes a step back, “Kinsley?” she asks. “It is me, Elizabeth. I do not have all my memories, but the important ones are back,” Kinsley replies with tears in her eyes. I look to Stan who is beaming. I move around my desk and put my hand on his shoulder, “I am happy for you both,” I say to Stan as he nods his appreciation. “Where are Tamara and Thomas? I want to personally thank them for everything,” Stan replies. “They will be here s

  • Rejected   Chapter 105 - Time to go Home

    Elizabeth POV I considered Kinsley’s words. What if it was supposed to be me that night? Did someone want me dead? We knew I was a target but was I worth more dead than alive? Carter looks to Kinsley after looking at me, “Anything else?” he asks. Shaking her head, “No, I am sorry. After that all I remember is the pain,” she says apologetically. “Do we believe Candi?” I ask everyone in the room. We all look to Stan. He shakes his head, “I have no idea. If they expected Kinsley to be out of the picture, they would have to be crazy to assume I would accept Candi back into my life,” he replies as he walks over to the window. Taking a deep breath, Kinsley shocks all of us. “Perhaps I should go on as if I do not have my memory? Then Stan could get closer to Candi and whoever this mystery person is might show their face?” she says trying not to choke on her words. “No!” Stan says turning around to face all of us. “I will not pretend

  • 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

    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

    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
