2025-02-20 16:33:33Selena’s POV
I let my fingers caress the back of the books on my lap, the titles and letters jumbled in my mind. My thoughts kept circling the same frustrating puzzle, but I kept coming to the same even more vexing conclusion.
I couldn’t place Rain in my past!
My mind was a locked room with no key. The more I tried to force it open, the more I felt like I was suffocating in my own thoughts. What was even more irritating was the fact that he seemed to know me so well. Not in a way where he knew my favorite color or my favorite food. But he knew things about me that--- it just got under my skin in a way that made me feel freaked out.
And wrapped up in safety all at the same time...
“Anything else I can get for you, Your Highness?”
My head snapped up as Elijah stood, ready to leave. Had he just---

Selena’s POVRain stormed in, and as the door closed behind him, I could hear the echoes of growls and cries, that sent a chill down my spine.Note to self...Don’t piss off Rain Blood!“Sorry for not coming by earlier,” he grumbled and--- and then just dropped himself onto the bed. Before I knew what was happening, he’d pulled down the duvet, leaving me squealing from the sudden cold of the hospital room.“Rain!”But he didn’t reply. Instead, he pulled his huge body onto the bed and was snuggling into me, hugging me like I was his goddess damned plushie or something.“What the---?!” I shrieked, but my voice was meek and breathless. My cheeks heated, and I had to bite back a scream. I’d never had a man in my bed – or this close to me before

Selena's POV“How did you two meet?” I asked instead, shaking my head free of the depressing thoughts of my lost mate. He was dead and nothing could ever bring him back...“When I was banished, I wandered around for a while and ran into a group of rogues,” Rain told me the story. “He was their second in command.”Second in command?!Wait---!“You killed their alpha?” I frowned, glancing up at Rain. No, it didn’t surprise me that Rain had killed someone – I had come to expect it at this point. But---“Isn’t Elijah also an alpha?”Rain nodded--- and grunted annoyed, tugging my head back under his chin. Once there, he hummed his contentment, making me smile. He was so bloodthirsty and ruthless, yet so easy to please, all he wanted was to cuddle...“He doesn’t want to lead,” Rain explained, once he was

Selena’s POV“Ready?” Rain asked, and I didn’t miss the slight excitement in his tone. I was finally moving out of the hospital wing and--- well, my future after that was questionable.“Even if I move into the alpha suite, I won’t be having sex with you!” I stated firmly, crossing my arms over my chest. After two weeks in the hospital wing, I could finally breathe without feeling like my ribs were trying to stab my lungs.Rain didn’t even blink...“Yet,” Rain corrected, and the smirk on his face was downright infuriating. “You won’t be having sex with me yet!”“Stubborn ass, mule!” I groaned as I cursed under my breath. I slammed the last of my toiletries into the small bag of belongings Rain had gathe

Selena’s POVNote to self…When negotiating with a powerful, stubborn, possessive alpha wolf--- keep in mind that their negotiation skills suck! Because the second we stepped outside the hospital, Rain basically strong-armed me into living with him in the alpha wing…Well, his argument of it being safer for me to stay close to him sort of helped…I didn’t like it and yes, I very much felt like I was trading one jail cell for another, but he had a point. As long as the whole pack hated me and wanted me dead, it was safer for me to stick around the few people who didn’t. Although going back there didn’t give me butterflies in the belly feelings either.My father kept me here like an ornament that he could take out and put on a show for all his “friends” and “pack.” Unfortunately, I'd been blessed with a pretty face, and my extraordinary eyes made me look good in man

Selena's POVI went to the dresser and opened the top drawer, looking for my favorite comfort hoodie and leggings. After weeks of hospital gowns and oversized T-shirts, I wanted something that felt more like me. It was one of the few things that I’d been allowed to have of my own since my father didn’t want to be bothered by “feminine business”.Although he stuck his nose in everything else I did – all just to humiliate me!As my fingers glided over the soft fabrics, an unsettling thought suddenly entered my mind. What if Rain had been in here? Had he gone through my things? Had he touched my belongings? Oh my goddess, had he been in here jerking off to my scent?Shit!Suddenly my chest tightened, and my breath came in short, ragged gasps. My hands trembled as I dropped my clothes back into the drawer as if they’d someone burned me.No!No, no, no...Bile ro

Selena’s POVThe silence in the room grew thick as the alpha’s calm demeanor slipped and his wolf’s rage filled the space. I’d seen it happen a million times before and the best thing to do then was to show submission. But if I ever did that--- well, my life would have gone from a living hell to three floors below.So I met his gaze head-on, letting the dominance roll over me. I was lucky in that aspect of not having a wolf, so I didn’t feel the crushing weight of it. It still made my skin tingle uncomfortably, and my stomach tightened in knots...“Who?” he asked, his voice as cold as granite. “Who is he?”He was angry. Understandably, since he’d claimed several times that I was to be his mate. Hearing that someone else had a claim on what he already considered to be his, would piss off--- well, anyone really. But for a werewolf, that was a whole other level of “pi

Selena's POVFucking ass was kissing me!I should struggle against him. It was the right thing to do, I knew it! But in the end, all I could do was feel. Feel the way my body reacted to him. I felt the tenderness of his lips as if they were conveying a secret message from his soul. My toes curled and involuntarily, a moan slipped between my lips. Only it was muffled by his hard lips on mine…It sounded so--- erotic!I should have felt embarrassed. But instead, I found it ignited a fire low in my belly. A fire that only he could quench. A fire that was going to burn me up, unless he--- I wasn’t sure what he could do, but I moved closer to him. I was in physical pain and I needed more of him somehow.And he understood!He moved his arms around my waist and went lower. He caressed my ass-cheek making me squirm. It eased the pain a little, though it wasn’t enough.I needed more!

FAQ: Rejection isn’t a thing in this universe!Selena’s POV“Be-betray?” I stuttered, my mind reeling from the information. “How---? How’s that even possible?”Maybe it was foolish of me to still believe in the mate bond and that it was holy to wolves. Considering that both my father and Rain clearly didn’t want their mates. But even my father loved my mother in his own way--- before he decided that she wasn’t worth his time anymore.And Rain…Well, he claimed that I was his mate. And he treated me like I was the most priceless thing he’d ever set eyes upon. Yet, he’d met his fated mate and claimed that he didn’t want her. That she meant nothing to him, and he didn’t care about her.So why did I still believe that mates loved and cherished each other?Because, despite all of the above, I’d only met my o

Surrogate to the Blood Alpha Chapter 72: What About Rejection?
Selena’s POVAlthough I’d told her about werewolf mates, I hadn’t told her what it meant to be one. And one glance at the poor beta, I could see that her words hurt him more than a silver blade to the gut. His eyes flickered desperately to me, begging me to help him.I turned to look at my best friend again. I hated seeing her scared and unsure of what was going on, especially considering her past. But was it really my place to tell her? She’d done so much for me and been so kind when I needed her help. Even now, when I was in a dire situation with Rain, she still stood by me, skipping out on her own job and health for my sake.Sighing, I decided that I was going to play cupid…“Beta, could you give us a minute, please?” I asked gently, gesturing for the wolf to leave the room. To my surprise, he actually did what I told him, giving me a curt nod and leaving the room.I turned to Stella---

Selena’s POVI woke up, confused as to where the hell I was. But suddenly everything came back and once more my hand flew to my stomach – startling Stella, who jumped up, ready to fight even with her eyes closed still.“Sorry about that,” I grinned, feeling bad for startling her, but still had to laugh at the cartoonish display. She blinked her eyes open, smacking her lips lazily and looking around. Although, as a nurse, she had spent countless nights and days sleeping in the hospital when she had to work overtime or had a double shift, so she didn’t look too surprised by the whole ordeal.“Well, that’s one way to get pretty,” she yawned, stretching and working out a couple of kinks. “I can’t remember the last time I slept that well! And don’t apologize, you silly bird. You’re pregnant and have been through an ordeal. It’s OK for you to take a break.”Yeah

***End flashback***Present time...Rain’s POVFor a long time, I’d been angry because I didn’t understand Selena’s desire to be free and feel independent. I hadn’t realized how the castle I considered my home was her prison. I’d placed my idea of her, of our future, on a pedestal, worshiping it like a false god.And hell, I’d needed it!It had been the one thing that had kept me going during my darkest time. When my hands were drenched in blood, and when the people I trusted stabbed me in the back. When I felt like giving up and wondered if I should just take my own life – to end my own misery--- those dreams had been the only thing that kept me going…I remembered being alone and isolated, my wolf howling with grief and loneliness. He belonged in a pack, with his family and--- but everyone he met betrayed him. Everyone was eag

***Flashback***Seven months ago...Rain's POVI stormed into the throne room, making everyone snap to attention. The chatter instantly died down; some of the wolves who knew me well were smart enough to shrink back. My thunderous expression rarely left anything in its wake other than blood and bodies...“Did I?” I thundered, jumping onto the high rise where my throne stood, and spun to face my pack along with the many representatives from other packs that always milled about at the castle. “Or did I not declare to everyone under my command that Selena Throme was not to be harmed in any way?”The room fell deadly silent. Those who knew me well kept their mouth shut and heads low, not willing to risk having my claws sink into them. All the other idiots, however, looked to each other with confused expressions, wondering what I was talking about.Then, one brave

Rain’s POVHearing my mate cry was just about the most painful thing I would ever hear. But despite it all, I couldn’t help but cling to the fact that there was hope…“She still loves me,” I sighed in relief--- but the fact also speared my heart like a silver blade. “But it’s not enough to convince her.”Fear clawed at my chest, and I’d long since decided that I hated this feeling. Hated feeling helpless and weak, unable to protect the people I loved.What if she chose to run away before I had a chance to explain everything? Before I had a chance to apologize and tell her how much I loved her? That she was the only one I ever wanted, and how sorry I was for how I acted?That I’d been a fucking asshole!My hands flexed and my fingers dug into the palm of my hands, frustrations of being so fucking helpless making my body shake. The witch had teleported in---

Selena’s POV“I’ve only ever slept with one woman my entire life and you’re her,” Rain snapped at me, his voice sending shivers down my spine. “I’m not interested in anyone else and I’ll keep repeating it to you until it penetrates your fucking skull!”His words left me utterly flabbergasted, spinning around in my mind over and over again, like a carousel. A part of me wished it were true. That this could explain everything and I could finally heal from my pain.The easy way…But nothing in life was ever easy. And I had to keep my emotions out of this. Emotions had no place in making choices that would affect my child. I had to rely on myself. On my experiences and on the fact that I had to see past people’s words. It was the actions and patterns that spoke to their characters. And Rain---I could never believe him!He could as easily lie ab

Selena’s POVI was close to tears seeing the beautiful mate moment unfold before me. And I hated myself for it. This was a happy occasion for what I now considered my best friend. I wanted this to be the most memorable moment in her life. She deserved it after everything she’d been through.And I wanted to be happy for her!But some part of me also remembered that I would never have the same thing happen to me. I was a mere human and would never know the connection of a true mate bond. And no matter how many times the man I loved more than life itself claimed that I was his, I’d never be his mate.And he’d always choose her over me...I tried to bite back the tears and smiled through the pain.“Congratulations, Elijah,” I said softly, but the wolf just barely spared me a glance. “She’s a good one.”“You better be talkin’ ‘bout me, songbird,”

Selena’s POVPain flared in my chest and my head suddenly pounded like a drum. Darkness swam at the edge of my vision and I suddenly felt dizzy. Somewhere far away an alarm went off and the machine next to me started blaring. My pulse started to buzz in my ear and my heart felt as if it was trying to break free of my chest.“NURSE!” Rain bellowed next to me, just as I doubled over in pain. I couldn’t breathe, and I hated that I was once again relying on Rain to get me help...“Rain?”Someone called out, and I immediately recognized Elijah’s voice.“Get a fucking nurse! She’s sick,” Rain snapped--- and came around to gently pat my back, sending currents of calming sparks throughout my body. “Breathe, my Azure. Remember to breathe.”I wanted to yell at him again. Tell him I wasn’t “his Azure”, but I felt too sick to do so. Bile rose and,

My stomach twisted violently and I felt sick.He knew!He would never leave me alone now. He would follow me to the end of the earth and I could never be free. I would have to escape and live for the rest of my life looking over my shoulder. Wondering if every little sound was him coming back to blow my life up once more. Never knowing if I was safe. Never knowing if the people on the street were strangers…Or sent to kill us!And I couldn’t protect us! I was just a human. I didn’t have claws or canines to protect us.
