The Alpha's Rejected Mate Chapter 18
Lucas's POV:My heart raced wildly in fear as the forensic analyst dropped the bombshell. It took two weeks to get the results from the bracelet because in the course of the last two weeks, three successive murder has occurred and all the evidence gotten from the crime scene does not match anyone's fingerprint. It was as if the mysterious creature does not exist or he/she is pretty good at covering their tracks.But now that a fingerprint has been tied to Matilda, I became apprehensive. I haven't spoken with Matilda since the pay incident that occurred in her house and damn, I missed her like crazy. I stood up and quickly whispered to my dad's ear, taking permission to leave the meeting. With a nod of his head, I turned around and walked out of the meeting arena, ignoring the stares from the pack members.I drove to the forensic laboratory with a grim expression on my face, my palm was sweaty as I gripped the steering firmly, and anxiety churned in my gut."What is the update," I asked

Lucas POV:At first, I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me, but as I focused harder, I realized that I was staring at a colossal monster. The creature towered over me, its hulking form covered in thick, matted fur. Its eyes glowed with an eerie red light, with massive razor-sharp claws that glinted menacingly in the dim light of the club.I could feel a shiver run down my spine as I tried to make sense of what I was seeing. Suddenly, the creature let out a deafening roar. That was when I knew that we were in for serious combat with this monstrous creature."Matilda, run into the club and don't come out till I call you", I whispered as I kept my eyes peeled on the monster."What? Are you going to fight this huge monster alone," Matilda argued. "Don't be in a hurry to forget that I'm a warrior," she added with an air of pride."M's please, I can't bear the guilt of seeing you get hurt. Just go inside, and I'll be fine. Okay?" As I spoke to Matilda, I could feel the creature's hot

Veronica's POV:As I stepped out of the hospital feeling weak, I heard a loud gunshot which made me freeze in my tracks. I quickly ran to where my driver stood and settled in the backseat of the plush car. Fear rocked the pit of my stomach as we drove back to the palace."Beatrice!" I screamed at the intercom as I walked into my room. "Beatrice, I need you to come to my room ASAP," I ordered on the intercom but I got no reply. Why was she always absent when I desperately needed someone to talk to?I took a quick bath and slipped on my nightwear. I felt nervous as the pictures of Lucas' sick and injured state flashed in my memory. "I really hope he survives this," I thought as I reached for the door and began walking down the stairs.The entire palace was eerily quiet. Chloe was tending to Malia– who had an asthma attack, immediately after the pack meeting last night. I made my way to the fridge to get a can of coke. I sipped the drink as my thoughts wandered around the recent happe

Lucas' POV:My heart sank as I heard her confession. I had always suspected that she had feelings for me, the way her body responded when I kissed her in my room says it all, but I never thought she would actually admit it. I knew that it was wrong for us to be together, not just because she was my step-sister, but also because I had no feelings for her."I'm sorry, Veronica," I said gently. "But I don't feel the same way. We can't be together like that.""But Lucas, I love you," she pleaded."I know, but it's just not possible," I replied, trying to keep my voice steady.Veronica looked heartbroken, but I knew that I had to be honest with her. "Lucas, please don't say that. I know it's complicated, but I can't help how I feel. I've loved you for so long," she pleaded, tears welling up in her eyes."Veronica, I'm sorry. I just don't feel the same way. You're my sister, and we can never be together," I said, trying to be firm but gentle.Veronica looked away, trying to hide her tears.

Lucas' POV:"Are you being serious right now, mom?" I questioned. I can't believe that my mom was asking me to seduce my step-sister into falling in love with me."I know it sounds awkward but that's the only option we have left", she paused as her eyes quickly darted to the door."If she falls in love with you and eventually chooses you as her mate, you still get a shot at the throne. Think about it Lucas, the Luna's mate is the Alpha, and irrespective of whoever that person is, he will be the one to lead Nightshade Pack" she added."Mom, I'll have to think about this," I said as I stood up and made for the door."Lucas", she called out, making me stop in my tracks briefly. "I'm sorry for making you do this," she said with an emotion-laden voice.I heaved as I walked out of the room. I got to my bedroom and settled for a cold shower. I let the water spurt over my skin as I ruminated over the night's event. My mom's request sounded outrageous and I couldn't imagine falling in love wit
The Alpha's Rejected Mate Chapter 23
Veronica's POV:I was surprised by Lucas' sudden kiss, the soft lips that seem to never have enough of mine. I was breathing fast as I shut my eyes and drowned in the pleasure that his lips provided, neglecting every other thing in the room. Suddenly he stopped and pulled his face away from mine, straightened his jacket, and said, "We have to leave now. Dr. Grooves is waiting". His voice was brutally cold and the boring look in his eyes resurfaced. He quickly walked to the door and left. I felt a pang of sadness draw at my wit's end as I turned to the mirror to adjust my dress.What did he mean by "He likes his woman pure and untouched?"Am I his woman? Did he develop feelings for me overnight?These thoughts plagued my mind as we drove silently to the hospital."Hey Lucas," Dr. Grooves greeted, smiling broadly as his face shone brightly like his crisp lab coat."Veronica, how're you doing?" He greeted me. "Good morning, Doc

Henry's POV:"Sorry, do I know you?" She asked, looking at me in confusion.I was both surprised and shocked at the same time. She still glows with her smiles "Yes, where have you been? Everyone has been looking for you." I asked her almost immediately."Uh mm. What? I'm sorry you must be mistaken for someone else" she said and began to walk away."Veronica, can you really not recognize me or you're feigning ignorance? Everyone has been looking for you at home" I asked, irritation churning in my gut.As I took her by the hand, I noticed three guys walking up to where I stood. I recognized Lucas, the Lycan King's son, and two others whose faces didn't ring a bell."Young Man, do you have any problem with her Highness?" The shorter one amongst the friends asked."First, take your filthy hands off my sister's body," Lucas roared with a stern look on his face. I slowly released Veronica's hand from my grip and she
The Alpha's Rejected Mate Chapter 25
Lucas POV:The drive back home was short and uneventful. Veronica sat beside me busy with her phone and silent throughout the drive. I was still in deep thought about what mum told me earlier."Why will dad do such a thing?" I thought to myself. I have been trying my best to prove to my dad that I can lead the pack as the Alpha, Veronica on the other hand cannot even shapeshift. "Why will dad think she will make a good Luna?"I turned and stole a look at Veronica, there was a hatred for her rising inside me as I watched her drown herself with some videos on her phone. Mum was right, I knew my dad very well, once his mind is made up on something, no one can change it. Even the moon goddess will need a miracle to change my father's mind. I had to go along with her plan.Seducing Veronica was not going to be a hard task for me. The poor girl was already in love with me, all I needed to do was play on those feelings.I pulled o
