April's POV

I got to Lucy's side, and she chuckled at me. I rolled my eyes while she snickered playfully.

"What are you doing here? You should be with your boo," she asked with a laugh.

"Can you just stop? You know it's not like that. Stop trying to play matchmaker."

Lucy giggled, but I ignored her and looked around the banquet hall. It was beautifully decorated, and I was nearly blown away in amazement.

The lights shone like stars, and rare flowers that were in bouquets were well placed around the room, filling the space with their intricate scent.

Everyone was beautifully dressed, and the conversations were light and friendly, with whispers about who would be picked by the Alpha to be the crowned prince.

"Your boyfriend seems to be tonight’s star. You really are a lucky girl."

I shook my head and resigned to the fact that Lucy wouldn't stop anytime soon.

I saw Conrad from across the room, shaking hands with different people and conversing lightly.

I had been so nervous the entire ri

  • Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother    57. The Crown Is Mine.

    Conrad's POVI watched as my father walked in with that gold digger, Vivian. I scoffed as soon as I saw her. My father didn't know her as well as I did. More than anyone, I knew that Vivian didn't care about my father. Not after she had tried to climb into my bed more than once with all her flirtatious gazes.She was simply one of the bevvy of ladies my father kept at his disposal for pleasure. But since he chose to bring her along to his birthday banquet, it was safe to say that he had made her his favourite. My father didn't just bring any woman along with him to his occasions. As his first son, I knew that better than anyone.With her by his side, he was beaming from all sides as she grasped his arm. I could only imagine the type of sorcery that that woman had used to be able to bewitch my father to bring her along. I inverted my gaze away from them and turned to where Lucy and April stood. Their gaze was on the Alpha and Vivian, but they looked stunned, their eyes wide with shock

  • Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother    58. Wolf In Sheep Clothing.

    Dorian’s POVLike every other morning for the last few days, the house was silent, and I headed down for breakfast after my shower.I got to the table, but it was the same as the last few days: there was no breakfast. My mother had been absent. I wondered where she had been for the past few days.I sighed and headed to the office.I got a call from Ivar just as I parked my truck in front of my office.“Are you at work yet? I dropped off everything I could find on your desk,” he said hurriedly as soon as I picked up the call, and I heard Emily’s voice in the background.“I will look over it. Spend some time with Emily before she storms into my office,” I teased and ended the call immediately.I sighed. It was going to be another busy day at work.I headed to my office and nodded to the greetings of some pack members who were around. I couldn’t wait to see what Ivar had found on Conrad. Knowing him, I’m sure he would have gone all in.I turned the doorknob, and when I pushed open the d

  • Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother    59. Masterpiece

    April's POV I watched Alexa's performance come to an end. I was so busy staring at Stacie and trying to get her attention that I missed most of the show. But I could tell from the uproar that it was amazing. I gave Lucy a gentle nudge, and she turned to me. "This is definitely Stacie," I said in a low whisper. There was a subconscious part of me that still had doubts. But I hadn't spent ten years with her for nothing. It had to be her. "I told you so. I knew it was her. I knew I could recognise her even in a crowd of ghosts. I knew that bitch was still living and breathing. The stubborn bitch refused to die." I shook my head slowly and turned back to the high table. I was curious. Why hadn't she come home if she had been alive all this time? Why hadn't she told anyone? Why was she in hiding? Did she do something that made her feel ashamed to return home? Also, what happened between Stacie and Lucy? I heard the spite and hate in Lucy's voice whenever she talked about Stacie. W

  • Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother    60. May I Have This Dance?

    April's POV I took a step back, and Lucy gave me heartfelt congratulations."Thanks," I said shakily. "I was really nervous.""You shouldn't have been. You were amazing, and so was your painting."I beamed, and the same loud voice filled the air after the applause had died down."We shall now witness the third wonderful gift that our Prince has to offer His Majesty."Lucy was gestured to step forward, and I wished her luck through the mind link.All eyes were on her now, and she seemed a bit more braver than I was."My name is Lucy Kyle, and I am a programmer. I have created a program to solve the problem of organising the Empire’s finances..."A projector was brought out. It was connected to Lucy's laptop, and the entire hall could see the program."It is an accounting software made with simple codes to help organise..."As she spoke, I stole a glance at the high table. Conrad’s stepmother and brothers looked angry and bitter as they listened to Lucy.Come to think of it, they hadn'

  • Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother    61. Something Didn't Add Up.

    April's POV Finally, the banquet ended, and I found myself back in Conrad's car. I was tired from all the festivities and dancing, but my mind was still working. My thoughts were all centred on Stacie. Wasn't that actually her? Why did she act like she didn't know me? Was it someone else that just looked like her? I also thought about the diary. Those things that she had written about me and the despicable things I did to her certainly weren't true. I couldn't wrap my head around it. Something didn't add up. The question was: what could it be? However, I really hoped that it was Stacie. If Dorian knew that Stacie was alive... perhaps things would return to how they used to be. "Are you alright? You look a little tense." Conrad's arm brushed mine gently, and I was pulled from my train of thought. I smiled at him and tried not to look so bothered. I really didn't want him to worry about me. "Uhmmm... Yeah. I am just a bit tired, that's all. I really enjoyed the party, but I

  • Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother    62. Good girl. Now, please, your King

    Conrad's POV I carried her carefully up to her room, my arms wrapped around her body and feeling the warmth exuding from her skin. She smelled sweetly of flowers and exotic perfume, and her body frame was light and dainty.Deep down, I felt a burning passion in my heart. I desperately wanted a kiss from her. However, I couldn't force it.Also, I had to keep in mind that I had business to take care of, and I couldn't afford any distractions.Still, I held her close to my body, and her soft skin rubbed against me with each step that I took.I had been admiring her the entire time we were at the party. I gave her this dress, and she wore it like a goddess. Her hair fell elegantly around her shoulder and seemed to flow with the wind whenever she turned her head.We didn't take too long before we got to her room. I gently opened the door and set her down. I looked on her bed and saw that there was a white fluffy mass curled up in a little ball."You have a cat? When did you get one?" I as

  • Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother    63. We Have To Find Lady Vivian

    April's POVI woke up the next day, and the sun shone brightly on my face. I groaned, turned around and covered my head with a pillow, but the hot rays still reached my skin, and I felt a slight burn.I got up, and the sun was already high in the sky. How long was I asleep?I grabbed my phone and looked at the time. Oh my goodness! It was noon already.I managed to drag my tired body out of my comfortable and cool bed. I rubbed my eyes and felt my stomach growl, protesting its hunger. My head ached a little, and I remembered the party. I smiled to myself, then headed to the bathroom to wash my tired face.As soon as the cold water hit my skin, I was pulled to full awakening. My stomach didn't stop growling, and I rubbed it. I really needed to get something to eat.I walked to the door and left my room. I began walking down the hallway when a familiar voice called out to me."Are you up, sleepy head? I was just about to bust down your door and drag you out of bed."I saw Lucy walking

  • Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother    64. Attacked!

    Dorian's POV I was in my office with my tax officer. He was going through the monthly tax records, and I was already bored before he could even start. "Alpha, the tax returns this month are drastically low. We probably need to raise the taxes in the future to meet the quota that the Royal Empire has set." I looked at him in concern and confusion. "What do you mean by quota? When did we have a quota set for our taxes?" I had been getting the pack taxes together for quite a while, and for all the time that I did it, I didn't realise that there was a quote that was set for the amount of taxes that we were supposed to give the Royal Empire. “I am very sorry, my Alpha; I guess I didn't inform you on time. The Royal Empire recently instructed at the beginning of the month that there is a set quota for taxes on packs under their jurisdiction. And the tax returns for the pack this month unfortunately did not reach that quota." I growled in anger and glanced at the paper with anger. I

  • Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother    179. Say Your Vows

    Chapter 179April's POV “Lucy! Stop fussing over my makeup. I think the eyeshadow is more than enough.”Lucy was fussing over my face for the umpteenth time. She had done and redone my makeup multiple times and couldn't seem to get her hands out of my hair."Can you just stay still? Today is your wedding day, and I want you to look perfect. It's not every day that you get to marry the King of the Lycan Empire."I rolled my eyes but couldn't help the blush that spread over my cheeks.I had been looking forward to this wedding for a whole month, and finally, it was here. Lucy was at the forefront and was my wedding planner. She fussed over everything, down to the smallest detail, like what colour the flower should be on each table. She did my makeup, and it took her twenty minutes to decide what colours to use for my eyeshadow. "Hold on, your eyeliner looks a little smudged."She attempted to reapply it, but I held her hands and kept her calm. I had already seen my face in the mirror

  • Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother    178. Your Wish Is My Command

    Dorian's POVI had never seen her this ravenous. Her eyes were wide, and her soft body reacted to my every touch. She took the lead and grabbed my dick, lowering herself onto it and rewarding me with her warm pussy.She was tight, and the walls gripped my hard phallus. I groaned as I soon found myself in, relishing the warmth of her hot body."Fuck! You are so tight, April."She said nothing and began to move her hips back and forth. She was gentle and slow, and moans escaped from her lips.I had had sex, but never like this. She felt beautiful, and she was all mine."How do I feel, Dorian?"She made the strokes shallow and graced the tip of my cock with her juices. She threw her head back, and her lips had my name on them. I gripped the sheets tightly and enjoyed her tight body. For the first time, I felt complete. I could feel our bodies and souls becoming one."Fuck, April!"I grabbed her, and in an instant, she was beneath me. My lips sought hers as I thrust deep inside her."Ahhh

  • Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother    177. Don't Turn Me Down

    April's POVI was in my room, my heart beating at an uneasy pace. I couldn't believe it, but it was finally all over.It had been a while since I last saw Dorian. Ever since his coronation, the council had swamped him with work. He was having Ivar help him, and everyone seemed to enjoy his leadership.Azura was on my lap, and I was stroking her. It was still shocking that I was the wolf that the prophecy foretold. I could give life to people.I had been thinking about it, which was absurd, but it made many things fall into place. It explained how I was able to save Jacob's dad and how I was able to bring Azura back when I saw her in the park.Despite all of this, I was still worried. If I had found out sooner about my powers and paid more attention to them, I could have saved the King.The thought haunted me, and the whispering from people I walked past didn't make it any better.I heard a soft knock at my door and stood to answer it. Azura followed me closely, and as soon as I opened

  • Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother    176. You Think I Am Desperate?

    April's POVI was in shock at what Conrad had just accused me of. I wasn't a witch. Why would he think that?There was a confused mumbling in the hall, and everyone looked weirdly at me.Conrad got down from the throne stand and stood menacingly before me."I know you for what you truly are. You aren't an innocent face. You are a witch. I have seen the magic you do. You bewitched me, and also, my father died because of you. I am also sure that you used your powers to falsify that letter to deceive the whole court that my father gave the letter to Dorian...""Stop! Just stop!–"I yelled loudly and was on the brink of tears."–How could you say such things about me?! You know that we have you pinned, and you are just so desperate that you want to blame someone else."I saw a devilish smirk curl his lips."You think that I am desperate?"In a split second, he grabbed Azura out of my arms and held her dangerously by the neck."I will show you how desperate I can be!"I tried to grab Azura

  • Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother    175. She's A Witch

    Chapter 175April's POV I was in my room putting on my dress. I was dejected and sad. I couldn't believe that this was the day; I couldn't believe that Conrad was being crowned today.I sighed sadly and put on my earrings. This wasn't what I had hoped for. It should have been Dorian but now the king was dead and no one knew the truth except Dorian, Ivar, Jacob, Lucy, and I. Susan and Stacie would never spill and it was doubtful that anyone would believe us. I heard the door open and I turned to see Dorian in a handsome blue suit, standing at the doorway. He had a weak smile on his face and all I could do was return it. I was too sad to speak.He closed the door behind him and walked up to me."You look beautiful." He slipped his arms around my waist, through the back of my open dress, and planted a soft kiss on my neck.My body began to burn with desire and passion. My moans were breathy and sensual."Dorian..."His name was soft and sweet on my lips as his lips teased my neck."Yo

  • Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother    174. You Have No Idea

    Lucy's POVEveryone had left the villa but I managed to sneak off and stay behind. I hid outside, in the garden and my face was glued to my phone. I sat there patiently watching the security footage, waiting for Stacie and Susan to come outside.I wasn't sure how long I waited, but the bitter cold didn't make me shiver in the least; I had experienced much worse than this.The snow was still falling and the garden was covered in a blanket of white. I sat still, waiting and watching.Finally, they began to leave. They left the villa and stepped outside. Susan looked quite livid but Stacie was smiling like the disgusting bitch that she was. She and her mother had made everyone's lives a misery and they had shown no remorse for it.Stacie clutched a coat close to her body and walked with her mother who was in a heavy cloak that swept the snowy ground. They left the compound and took a right. I put my phone in my pocket and followed them, keeping a safe distance behind them.They walked fo

  • Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother    173. Can't Settle For Less

    Chapter 173April's POVI was up early in the morning. My eyes stung, and my teeth clattered. I realised that the bedclothes had fallen off me and had landed on the floor. Azura was curled tightly on the floor's covers and purring in satisfaction. I looked outside the window and saw that fresh snow was falling. It looked like a wonderland. I only wondered how long it would remain that way once Conrad became the king.I still couldn't believe that he was being crowned in two days. So much was happening in my head that I couldn't keep track of it.I heard a soft knock at my door but was too dizzy to answer. I heard the door click, and someone walked in.I heard heavy boots thudding towards me, and when I looked up, my blood ran cold. "Conrad?!"Before I could breathe a word, he grabbed me by my neck and slammed me onto the bed."C... Conrad... I...I can't breathe."His eyes were a furious electric blue, and his teeth were gritted in anger as he stared down at me."You! This is all you

  • Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother    172. Welcome Back From The Dead

    Dorian's POVI woke up alone in my room to a bitter cold. I looked out my window and saw snow falling freshly and blanketing the pack's ground in a graceful white covering.I spent the night alone, as April had to go and prepare for today's funeral and pick out a dress. I had a wonderful time with her yesterday. My heart fluttered each time I remembered the kisses I stole and how she giggled. I never thought that I could be this happy.I sat up and finally had time to think about the fight alone. There was so much that had happened that I hadn't been able to process in April's presence, like the fact that Geras' blood tasted and smelled a bit like Conrad's and how my injuries were able to heal so fast and even bring me back from the dead because I was almost sure that I had kicked the bucket.I spent unproductive minutes trying to dissect it all, and soon, I finally gave up. I was just happy that this was over. I owed it to my birth father. He would have wanted me to keep the pack saf

  • Rejecting My Alpha Stepbrother    171. I'm Not Ready

    April's POVI had been by Dorian's side all day, insisting that he lay in bed. I was happy that no one had bothered us. He watched me as I dashed around the room, looking for things to make him more comfortable.He had told me that he was okay, but I could not fully believe him. He has healed up too fast for any normal wolf. What if something in his body wasn't attached properly? What if he wasn't fully healed?I had gotten a cold towel to dab his forehead in case he got a headache, but he stopped me, grabbed me, and pulled me into bed with him."Dorian, stop playing around. You need to rest."He pinned me to the bed, and I found myself looking up at his piercing green eyes."Apri, you have been doting on me since the fight yesterday. I told that I'm alright."He growled softly in my ear and kissed my earlobe softly.I groaned softly at the feel of his soft lip. They trailed down my neck to my cheeks and finally rested on my lips.He kissed me deeply and wrapped his arms around me. I
