Chapter 26
Malia's POV:
Immediately I and Tyler got back from the meeting we had with Philip Perry, the Alpha of the Crescent Pack. I went into my room, took a shower, and dressed in a handmade gown. Tyler had some political issues to discuss with the pack's council members so he left the palace almost immediately.I brought out my phone from my purse and dialed Lucas' number, he picked up the third ring."I need you to come back as quick as you can, we have a situation—" I began hastily but he quickly interrupted before I could explain why I called."Alright mom," he said and the line went dead. I paced around the large study room, anxiety crawling over my skin as I shuddered at the thought of the day's events.I and Tyler had gotten to the Crescent Pack and the Alpha welcomed us warmly and introduced us to his family. The last time we visited Crescent Pack was seventeen years ago, during the mating season. My worst fear was coming to pass as I watchedRelated chapters

Lucas POV:"I want you to teach me how to fight," she said, her eyes intense.I couldn't believe what I was hearing when Veronica asked me to teach her how to fight. I mean, she's a princess, for crying out loud! I thought to myself."Lucas, please," Veronica said, looking up at me with her big, pleading eyes. "I just want to know how to defend myself in case something happens."I sighed, running a hand through my hair. "Veronica, I understand your concern, but you're a princess. You shouldn't be fighting anyone. Besides, you have guards to protect you."Veronica's expression turned stubborn, and I knew she wasn't going to take no for an answer. "I'm not asking to learn how to fight to go out and start trouble, Lucas. I just want to be prepared in case something happens. Please, I need your help."I shook my head, feeling torn. On the one hand, I understood where she was coming from, but on the other hand, I didn't want to encour

Lucas POV:"But I want it. I can't resist you anymore, Lucas" she pleaded, her eyes searching for mine. I heaved a sigh.I knew this was my perfect opportunity to seduce her but I knew I shouldn't rush things so I don't come off as desperate."Veronica, I can't. You're my sister and we shouldn't be doing this. I'm sorry for kissing you earlier," I said as I stood up but Veronica's hand pulled on my elbow, forcing me to stop in my tracks."I'm in love with you, Lucas. I know it doesn't make sense but that is how I feel," she pleaded as tears began to well up at the corners of her eyes."Vee, you're my sister. It is absolutely wrong for us to be in a sexual relationship besides dad has visited the Crescent Pack and sent an invitation to the members of the Crescent Pack so they can come to our pack during the full moon festival. That way you can find a mate who you'll eventually learn to love," I explained, feigning care."I don't w

Veronica's POV:My heart stopped beating briefly as I stared at the door and back at Lucas. I was sopping wet in between my legs and my core still throbbed with the pleasure that Lucas gave. He turned to me and motioned me to get dressed as he quickly stood up from the bed and went to the bathroom to wash his hands.I quickly threw on my clothes, trying to make myself presentable, while Lucas pretended to be closing the first aid box. I took a deep breath and opened the door, praying that my father wouldn't suspect anything."What is going on here?" my father demanded, his voice filled with curiosity.I tried to play it cool, even though I was shaking with nerves. "Oh, hey, Dad. Lucas was just helping me with my training. I sustained a minor injury while we were practicing sword fighting."My father's face darkened. "Sword fighting? Veronica, you know better than that. You are a princess, not a warrior."Lucas quickly spoke up, t

Lucas POV:I paced back and forth in my room, my heart racing and my mind in turmoil. My dad had almost caught me making out with Veronica, and now I couldn't shake off the feeling of guilt and shame. As I struggled to calm down, my thoughts wandered to Matilda, even though she isn't my mate, it still felt like I just cheated on her. What have I done?Suddenly, I heard a loud noise coming from my dad's study room. I froze for a moment, wondering what could have happened. Then, I heard a loud scream, and my instincts kicked in. I ran to the study room, my heart pounding in my chest.When I got there, I found Veronica on the floor, her face pale and her eyes wide with shock. My dad was lying on the ground next to her, his face contorted in pain."Dad!" I yelled, rushing to his side. "What happened?"Veronica shook her head, tears streaming down her face. "I don't know," she said. "We were talking, and then he just collapsed."I che

Lucas POV:"What am I doing here? I'm here because Dad is sick and in the hospital," Veronica replied as Matilda stared at her quizzically. I bet Veronica is pissed off but can't even show how annoyed she felt at seeing Matilda at the hospital. She had to keep my frustration to myself so everyone does not get the impression that she was in love with me."Vee, are you okay?" Matilda asked, withdrawing her arm from mine."I'm fine. Uh mm, Lucas can I talk to you for a few minutes?" Veronica stuttered, looking at me in a pleading manner."Sure," I said in a cold voice. The boring look on my face resurfaced again."Hey, Lucas, I don't feel too well. I think I should head home", she said resting her soft palm on my arm but I subtly withdrew his arm from my grip. I didn't want Matilda to get the wrong idea."It's okay. I'll call your chauffeur to drive you back to the palace while I remain here," I replied gruffly and proceed
The Alpha's Rejected Mate Chapter 32
Malia's POV:I had paid a brief visit to my parents' pack when I got the call that Tyler had suddenly collapsed. I quickly rushed to the palace and found the palace dead as ice. I was scared and freaking out but I could not afford to break down in front of the palace servants.After the long stay at Tyler's bedside, watching his chest rise and fall as he lay unconscious on the hospital bed, Lucas insisted that me and Chloe head back to the palace. As I got to the palace, I saw Veronica sitting in the living room, her knee held to her chest as she perched at the edge of the leather cushion."What did you do to the King?" Chloe barked at her immediately as we stepped into the living room. Veronica raised her face and I could see her swollen eyes."I didn't do anything," she murmured. "We just had a brief conversation and while I was on my way out, he suddenly collapsed." Veronica defended herself."Oh, please spare me those vain excuses," C

Jason's POV:As we approached the palace of the Nightshade Pack, my heart quickened with anticipation. As we entered the palace gates, I couldn't help but feel a sense of awe at the grandeur of the place. "Stay close, Jason," my father cautioned, his tall and imposing figure leading the way. He was respected by many in the Lycan community, and known for his wisdom and strength as an alpha. I followed closely, taking in the opulence of the palace, the ornate carvings on the walls, and the immaculate gardens that adorned the grounds.The opulent halls echoed with the whispers of palace servants scurrying about, and the scent of fresh flowers wafted through the air, adding to the regal ambiance. We were soon greeted by palace servants, who bowed respectfully to my father as we made our way through the corridors. I could sense their reverence towards him, and I felt a swell of pride for being his son. We were led to the queen's chambers, and as we entered, I

Jason's POV:"Mom!" Henry gasped as we simultaneously untangled from each other's gaze. I took a few steps backward while Henry eyed me maliciously and walked towards his mother who stood transfixed at a spot."Henry. What did you just say?" Mrs. Brook reiterated, her voice shrieking through the roof. "Is Veronica truly alive? Answer me!""No, Mom. I…I don't know. I…just…just said that so Jason could leave me alone," Henry stammered. "He threatened to hurt me if I did not tell him where Veronica was. I guess he is being delusional about Veronica being alive."I knew Henry was lying but I didn't want to create a scene at the Brook's home so I kept my calm."Jason, I think you should leave now. You were the one who publicly rejected Veronica as your mate and you can't come to my house and harass my son as well," Mrs. Brooks said, glaring at me. "We've learned to accept Veronica's disappearance and you can't come here and open healed wounds,
