Rise of the Alpha's Rejected Luna Questioning the Punishment
My mind was pretty much in a mess as Pularis brought me back to the hospital to get treated. I still couldn’t believe what happened back at Duncan’s place, as my injuries were getting wrapped up in the bandages. Not by a doctor or a nurse, though… But by Pularis.“You don’t need to do this, you know,” I told him, being very careful as to not upset him in any way.“Maybe not. But I feel like doing this,” he returned, not keeping his eyes off his work on my arm.I couldn’t help feeling uneasy, though. He is, after all, a member of the Council of Wolves. Even if he treats me kindly now, because of Duncan my reputation was brought down terribly. Surely he saw me as a criminal just like everyone else. Moreover, with the fate of the pack…“If I can ask something, is it true?” I asked then.“About what?” he asked back, still not glancing up at me.“About the Bluemoon Pack’s disbandment.”That got him to pause that time, as he looked up at me with a cold expression. A look that made me flinch

Duncan's POV"Is Auntie Ashley going to be okay?" Dylan asked me, as we sat out in the halls right outside the closed doors to my room, where Ashley was. With us was Spencer, who was pacing around the halls to calm himself down."She'll be fine, son. Everything will be okay," I said, more to reassure myself than it was to reassure him.After that incident with that Council of Wolf member, my son and I instantly went to check on Ashley, and called for Ashley's doctor to get to my home for her. Get her the help she needs to recover from what that monster did. There were some difficulties in getting him here, which did not take long to resolve after I contacted Spencer to bring him."It's one thing that that bitchy slut went and poisoned Ashley. Now you're telling me one of the Council of Wolves did the same?!" Spencer questioned me, ceasing in his pacing as he turned to me in rage. "What's more, you're really telling me that he is having our pack disbanded?! What about Ashley?! She's a

"If you want to find that doctor and beat him for neglecting even the simplest of treatment for Ashley, you can," I told him, knowing well that Spencer cares for Ashley just as much as I do."As tempting as that sounds, I am more enraged with the person responsible for this. Or should I say 'people'," he denied, though still seething in rage.How I understood so well of his rage, for I was just as angry with that councilman mutt for dealing so much hurt to my Ashley. When she was already in enough pain because of that slutty 'wife' of mine. And after dealing so much pain to her, that dog dare take my wife away while leaving this poor innocent soul behind in agony?! Rage filled me when I recall how he carried her out of my house. As though she was some princess when she was nothing more than filth itself."I don't understand why this is happening to me..." Ashley spoke, her voice cracking a bit, as she raised an arm up to her eyes, concealing them from our sight. "I did nothing wrong;

Susan's POVAfter Pularis got me treated at the hospital, I thought he was going to leave me here, where I would get plenty of rest and further professionalized treatment from the doctors and nurses. Instead, to my increasing shock, he was bringing me back to his house to get those. That is, a house from the Bluemoon Pack, in which he had purchased for the duration of his stay prior to his arrival here.I had thought he was jesting when he said I would be discharged early, since I was certain there were things even the Council of Wolves had no authority over. Come the doctor’s visit, and he pretty much confirmed that I was going to be leaving with Pularis.“You know, you really don’t need to drive me to your mansion. I’m fine returning to Duncan’s place,” I assured him, as he carried me to the guest room with some servants following us, much to my embarrassment.“After I helped you? When we both know he will only do worse to you?” Pularis questioned, prompting me to be silent. “I did
Last Updated : 2025-02-17Rise of the Alpha's Rejected Luna Little Escapee
Duncan's POVI ran across the woods in my wolf form, heading straight to a peculiar place a small distance away from the pack. An abandoned hut, to be exact, where that dastardly boy was being held.The travel there was a bit far to my liking, but it was the perfect place to hide and keep that thing. It was, after all, abandoned, and it was in the middle of the woods. Susan would never expect that 'precious boy' of her's to be held outside the area. And even if she does get any bright idea of leaving, with the patrols around the perimeters, she will not make it far. Much less make it halfway to the brat.Same with the boy. The hut may have been abandoned, but by no means did I leave the boy unsupervised. Who knows exactly what sort of tricks were being taught to him at the big house? The mutts I hired to watch him are the best hunters of the Bluemoon Pack. Nothing and no one will escape them. Especially not some brat.A smirk formed on my face as I began to think about what I would do
Last Updated : 2025-02-17Rise of the Alpha's Rejected Luna Need to Leave
Susan's POVAs soon as I had panicked about Justin, rather than let me go, Pularis had me chained to the room, to my shock and dismay. Not only that, but he even ordered his servants to not release me, while he had gone out to find Justin for me.Only thing is, however, not only did I not know where Justin was being held, Pularis did not ask a single thing about him as he left. Not what he looked like, what he may smell like, nothing. He didn’t even ask if the son I was worried about was the one who was with Duncan. It worried me more if he was ever going to find him. And it worried me even more if Justin will still be safe until then. ‘Justin… Please be safe,’ I prayed, looking out the window at the crescent moon shining down. As I stared, I couldn’t help wondering if the Moon Goddess or anyone up there is enjoying what has become of me. It was bad enough that I was framed for a crime I never did, all my hard work and effort to not be recognized, and let’s not forget how Justin- the

Pularis's POVI was driving back to the disgraced Alpha’s house to retrieve Susan’s kid. Apparently, the boy was abducted by that guy and his men when they were somewhere that was without people. Where that ‘somewhere’ was, the she wolf didn’t say, though it could be prison. Her friend did mention that Susan was falsely accused and arrested for a crime she didn’t commit, earlier. An indirect piece of info about the ‘Alpha’ that pissed me off even more.Just what kind of Alpha does not look deeper into an incident before making that sort of decision? The fact that that one werewolf said such about Susan so truthfully could only mean he had been neglecting his ‘homework’. If anything, I question if the predecessors even properly taught him the responsibilities of an Alpha.‘All the more reason to have this pack dispersed,’ I thought, irritated that there had to be a process to be done for that to actually happen in the council. Though we usually would have the final say in a situation i

It did not take me much longer to arrive back at the disgraceful Alpha's household. Once there, I begrudgingly got out of my car and walked up to the door. To my small astonishment, the front door was already fixed up, albeit poorly. Still, it did nothing to deter me and what I needed to do, as I gave it a 'little' knock, causing the door to tumble down."This door is very poorly fixed," I said out loud, making my presence known to the residents inside as I walked in.When I entered, I noticed the three people who were supposed to be here were missing. I had thought they ran off, when I took in a breath, and sniffed out two of three familiar scents upstairs, with one unfamiliar scent.Of the two scents I knew, I instantly noticed the disgraceful Alpha was not one of them. Something that made me narrow my eyes in disgust.‘He ran away, didn’t he? Either that or…’ I began to wonder, having half the mind to summon a search party for that runaway, when I heard footsteps upstairs.“So you’

Rise of the Alpha's Rejected Luna Can You Help Me?
Susan's POVI was only trying to find my way to my room, when I walked down the steps to hear Pularis chat with his guest. With my benefactor who saved me from the Bluemoon wolves earlier. More than that, that very benefactor was his grandmother? I could barely see the resemblance between them.“What are you doing there?” Pularis questioned me.“S-Sorry. I didn’t mean to disturb you or anything,” I apologized. “I was just about to make my way to my room when I heard you two talking.”“You’re no bother to us at all, dear,” Patricia assured me. “In fact, you came at a good time. Please, come sit with us. I promise this won’t take long.”I know she was practically lying in that ‘reassurance’. In fact, given how Pularis made me leave her cabin earlier, I could only guess that she would want answers. Particularly about what Justin said earlier. I glanced at Pularis, wondering if I should just leave to my room. Hoping he would give me permission to, rather. To my bafflement, though, he inst
Rise of the Alpha's Rejected Luna The Visitor
I was frozen stiff, unable to move a finger, as Pularis continued to inch closer to me. The thought of pushing him away did cross my mind, as did the thought of consequences that would follow had I done so. The latter that most especially left me at a frightened loss, as the Alpha continued to move closer.“Let’s make another thing clear. For as long as I live, no one- not a single mutt- has made a deal with me, without giving their everything to me. And no dog has ever laid hands on what is mine and gets away with it,” he said, as I could feel his hand brushing up my arm.I jumped and shivered from his touch, wanting to get away from him even more, only to hold back when I thought about the consequences from doing so. With how Pularis was towards people who abuse their authority, proved themselves unworthy of their position, I did not want to know what happens to people who go back on their deals with him. All I could do, as he continued to lean closer, was close my eyes, feeling his
Rise of the Alpha's Rejected Luna Proposition II
"Be an Alpha candidate for this pack. If it means so much to you that you want to still help everyone here, be their next Alpha. Do that, and you and your son can live a happier life, compared to living in the woods like rogues. That’s not a life for a pup young as he to have, don’t you think?”I couldn’t believe what I was hearing, especially from a councilman. While it was true that the option can both save the Bluemoon Pack and ensure a better life for Justin, I was still hesitant. Particularly considering… “I-I would. Except… that won’t happen. As you may know, I have a criminal record here, now. Even if I were to run for the title, no one would support me. Even if I do have supporters, I doubt they’re any more than Duncan’s, or whoever else may run for the position.”“Only because you were framed, correct? In that case, we clear your name. Find out what truly happened, and reveal the truth to the pack. Simple as that. Of course if you have an alternative idea, let’s hear it.”I a
Rise of the Alpha's Rejected Luna Proposition
We finally arrived at the mansion. By the time we got there, Justin was practically depleted of his remaining energy, for he was no longer bouncing around the way he did during the walk.“Looks like someone is ready for bed,” I said, picking Justin up in my arms, as he gave a yawn.“No, I’m not sleepy…” he tried to lie.I chuckled at his attempt to lie, and gently rocked him in my arms. “Sure you aren’t~” I said with a slight tease in my voice, gradually pulling him deeper into slumber.A throat cleared itself, though not from Justin, nor from Pularis. I lifted my head and saw Ayla looking at me with a small pout. One look at her, and I was reminded of what I did to escape from this mansion.“Welcome home, Alpha,” Ayla greeted Pularis with a bow. “My deepest apologies for being unable to keep our guest… ‘entertained’.”“It’s fine. I understand you were put in a difficult spot,” Pularis assured. Though his tone didn’t sound as sympathetic as his words. He slowly approached Ayla, causin
Rise of the Alpha's Rejected Luna Walking Back
The walk back to Pularis's mansion felt like forever, as I followed behind the Alpha to his abode. As we walked, I noticed the patrols that were once around the pack seemed to have dispersed, and any citizens walking around would often stop and glance at us. Some seemingly in fright, and distanced themselves from us. Whether it was due to my poor reputation, or news that a member of the Council of Wolves was amongst their midst, I wasn't sure. Though I could not say the distance was not appreciated.Justin, on the other hand, seemed fairly comfortable being around him, to my slight confusion. Not for his actions- considering Pularis did find and save him as he promised- but more about the Alpha in question. He who did not seem bothered by my adopted son's antics. Getting led by the hand, having a small chat with him... He's even letting him ride on his shoulders. Looking at them like this, the pair looked almost like father and son. If it weren't for what happened last night, I would
Rise of the Alpha's Rejected Luna Reunion with a Tension
I stood in sheer bafflement, when I saw Pularis standing right out the door, paling in his presence. I had planned to return to the mansion as soon as I could after finding Justin, but now..."Mommy!" I was snapped out of my fright when I heard a familiar voice call out to me, followed by a small figure bumping into me at full force.I looked down hesitantly, wondering if I was just hearing and imagining things. If stress and worries got piled up in me to the point that it was making me hallucinate. My eyes widened when I laid them on the one figure I never thought I would see."Justin?" I breathed out, prompting the boy to look up at me. His eyes filled with tears, relief, and joy."I missed you, Mommy!" he exclaimed.Relief washed over me as I knelt down, taking in his appearance and scent. The young puppy smell mixed with cinnamon that I knew well. There was no mistaking it, as I took him in my arms in a hug."You're okay. Thank goodness, I was so worried!" I exclaimed softly, bury
Rise of the Alpha's Rejected Luna Humble Hospitality
"Thank you again, for back there," I thanked the elder, sitting on the couch as I wrapped up my legs in bandages."It's nothing you need to thank me for, child. If anything, it is those dogs who should be ashamed of themselves, ganging up on a single werewolf. In broad daylight," the woman said, prepping some tea for us. “Are you sure you don’t need help with those injuries?”“No, ma’am. It’s just a bunch of scratches I got while running, is all.”After what happened with the Bluemoon wolves, the elderly woman took me by the hand and led me straight to her house. That being a fairly nice cabin right outside the pack. There were some werewolves who tried to stop us, but one glare from her was enough to stop them. Literally, with the added pressure keeping them down. Once it finally dawned to them how formidable this werewolf may be, they gave in at last. Although...'I have doubts it will stop Duncan from trying anything to me. Finding me, and potentially hurt me…' I thought, worried a
Rise of the Alpha's Rejected Luna Chase
Susan's POVI had been searching around town the whole night, and I couldn’t find any clue or hint as to where Justin had gone. Not that it should be surprising, considering how he has never gone outside the prison walls before. And yet, for the first thing to have happened to him to be a kidnapping, followed by an escape with a target on his back…‘He must be frightened,’ I thought in worry, hiding behind a barrel, away from patrols. ‘Everything out here is too new for him. He could be anywhere. If he was in a place any child would more likely end up in, they would’ve found him by now.’Worried as I was about Justin’s safety, for there to still be so many werewolves searching for him, I can at least be at ease that he was safe, away from Duncan and his men. I was relieved but, with the sun rising, I feared it was only a matter of time until Justin gets found. Whether it was by one of the patrols, or a citizen loyal to Duncan. Likewise, however, it also meant I wasn’t going to be able
Rise of the Alpha's Rejected Luna Desperate Search
I ran as fast as I could down the streets, pushing my legs as fast as I could to the limit. As much as I wanted to transform into my wolf form and make this search fast, sadly, I never got the time to practice my shifts, much less feel my wolf. Not since the incident. Even now, when I most especially want to find Justin, I can’t feel my wolf.‘No…’ I thought, shaking my head. ‘Now is not the time for that. I can worry about my wolf after I save Justin.’My mind made up, I picked up the pace and ran faster down the streets. Soon enough, I made it back to town, where I took notice of the patrols walking about in the area. I grew confused at the sight, for there usually was never any need for this many people patrolling within the pack. Unless if...'It can't be because of me, can it?' I wondered. 'Even if Duncan has so much hate towards me, and possibly felt humiliated after what happened with Alpha Pularis, he couldn't be petty enough to think that it was some act, could it?'I didn't
