chapter 44
Veronica's POV:
I saw Matilda heading in my direction and I couldn't stand the thought of acting inferior before her. I won't let her snatch Lucas from me. I walked up to her with a forceful smile on my face."Hi, Matilda, it's been a while," I said, stretching my hand for a handshake. She was taken aback by my sudden friendliness and stared at me in surprise. After a few minutes of hesitation, she composed herself and genuflected briefly."Your Highness," she greeted, bowing in respect."Where's the King?" I asked, looking at her with disdain. My intentions were simply to make her feel small and insignificant in every possible way."He's in a meeting with Jason," she replied, her voice barely above a whisper. "I'd be on my way now if you don't mind.""Sure, you should leave right away," I retorted, stepping aside as she brushed past me in a hurry. "So you don't try to seduce the Prince again."She paused in her tracksRelated chapters

Veronica's POV:"Veronica, I've been waiting for this moment," he said softly. "You know how much you mean to me, and I would be honored to be your mate."Relief washed over me, and I couldn't help but smile back at him. His words filled me with a sense of reassurance and happiness."But, Veronica," Lucas continued, his tone serious. "I want you to be sure about this decision. It's not just about tradition or duty. It's about love, and being with someone who truly makes you happy."I appreciated his honesty and sincerity. I knew that Lucas cared for me deeply, and I had always felt a strong connection with him. But at the same time, I couldn't ignore the nagging doubt in the back of my mind."I understand, Lucas," I said softly. "I do care for you, but I want to be sure that our feelings are genuine and not just influenced by the expectations of the festival."Lucas nodded understandingly, and I could see the sincerity in his eye

Lucas POV:I hesitated for a moment before deciding to call Parrish. We hadn't talked since our last meeting, and I wanted to check in on him. As I dialed his number, I couldn't help but feel a sense of nervousness. I didn't know what to expect from our conversation, but I knew I had to try."Hello?" Parrish answered on the other end."Hey, it's Lucas," I said. "How are you doing?""I'm hanging in there," he replied. "What's up?""I was thinking we should meet up and talk," I said. "Maybe at Sinema club?"Parrish hesitated for a moment before agreeing. "Okay, let's do it. When are you thinking?""How about tonight?" I suggested."That works for me," Parrish said. "I'll see you there."As I made my way to the club, my nerves started to get the best of me. I wasn't sure what I was going to say to Parrish, but I knew I had to talk to him about Veronica.As I walked into the Sinema club, the dimly lit interior engulfed me in a haze of smoke and the scent of alcohol. I scanned the room, se
The Alpha's Rejected Mate chapter 47
Veronica's POV:As I walked into the palace sitting room, I immediately sensed something was off. The Queen, Lucas, and Chloe were all huddled together, whispering in hushed tones. They looked up in surprise as I entered the room, and I could feel their eyes boring into me."What's going on?" I asked, trying to keep my tone light."Veronica, dear, we were just discussing some palace matters," the Queen said, trying to sound reassuring.I wasn't convinced. "Is everything alright?" I pressed, my heart beating a little faster.Lucas finally spoke up. "Veronica, let's go talk in your room."I nodded, grateful for the chance to speak to him alone. As we walked down the hallway, I couldn't help but feel a knot forming in my stomach. What could they have been talking about that they didn't want me to hear?Once we were in my room, I turned to face Lucas. "What's going on?" I asked again, my voice barely above a whisper.Lucas hesitated for a moment before finally speaking. "Veronica, I don't
The Alpha's Rejected Mate Chapter 48
Veronica's POV:Lucas slumped onto the bed beside me, panting heavily as sweat trickled down his face. I couldn't believe what I heard. He just called Matilda's name while cumming inside me."Lucas, have you had sex with Matilda before?" I asked, my voice rough with emotions.Lucas looked at me and sighed. He rubbed his temple and stared at the ceiling as though he was looking for the right words to say. "Yeah, just once. And that was a long time ago."I couldn't get myself to believe Lucas but I was desperately in love with him and I didn't want to lose him to another woman, especially Matilda.We lay on the bed, facing the ceiling as awkward silence wrapped around us. My mind was filled with the thought of the full moon festival. I can't wait to formally introduce Lucas as my mate in the presence of the entire pack members. I would be his Luna when he becomes the Lycan King. I smiled contentedly as I imagined the beautiful life filled w
The Alpha's Rejected Mate Chapter 49
Jason's POV:True to Henry's words, Veronica was in the Nightshade Pack. I was surprised to find Veronica Brooks- the same girl I rejected as my mate- standing in front of me. Not as a random human being but as a princess of the Nightshade - the biggest and strongest werewolf pack.Without thinking, I called her name without adding honorifics. She was taken aback by my words. It was as though she didn't recognize me or my parents. My mom and Dad on the other hand barely recognized her. She looked heavenly and breathtakingly beautiful - a sharp contrast to her former appearance.I'm sorry, have we met before?" She asked, trying to keep her tone neutral.My Dad glanced at me, his eyes shooting lasers at me and I quickly composed myself."I'm sorry, I guess I mistook you for someone else. I apologize," I said, bowing briefly.Veronica stood there staring at me, unsure of what to say. "Uh mmm. It's fine. I've met a handful of people who've mistaken me for someone else," she stuttered nervo
The Alpha's Rejected Mate Chapter 50
Veronica's POV: I walked into my room, feeling exhausted after giving Alpha Philip's family a tour of the palace. The grandeur of the palace never ceased to amaze me, but today it felt like a burden. As I looked at myself in the mirror, I couldn't help but feel like a stranger in my own body. I carefully picked out the hairpins that held my hair in place, and letting my hair cascade over my shoulder, I heaved a sigh of defeat. The full moon festival was commencing in two days and I felt restless coupled with the fact that I barely see Lucas these days.I traced the contours of my face, trying to remember something, anything about my past. But all I could see was a blank canvas staring back at me. It was like my memory had been erased, leaving behind a shell of a person. Taking off my clothes, one piece at a time, I couldn't help but feel sad because of Lucas's actions earlier on. He ignored me like I didn't exist and it made me feel sad.My mind drifted to Jason- Alpha Philip's son

Jason's POV:"Jason, what are you doing here?" Lucas demanded, looking at me suspiciously.I was taken aback by his sudden appearance."What are you doing here?" I asked, trying to keep my voice steady.Lucas glared at me, his arms crossed over his chest. "I could ask you the same thing. What do you want with Veronica?"I hesitated, trying to come up with an excuse. "I just wanted to check on her. She didn't seem okay during dinner."Lucas snorted. "Right. Like you care about her."I felt my anger rising, but I knew I had to keep my cool. "What are you doing here, Lucas?"He smirked at me. "I live here, remember? Unlike you, I don't have to make excuses to be with Veronica."I gritted my teeth, feeling a surge of jealousy. "I'm not making excuses. I just want to talk to her."Lucas shook his head. "She doesn't want to talk to you. She made that pretty clear."Lucas eyed me skeptically, but thankfully Veronica spoke up. "It's okay, Lucas," she said. "Jason was just checking on me."I b
The Alpha's Rejected Mate Chapter 52
Veronica's POV:Tears streamed down my face as I ran up the stairs. My heart pounded hard against my chest and my knees buckled as I got to the top of the staircase. I couldn't believe what I just heard and somehow, I hoped it was just a figment of my imagination.Was Lucas really using me as a sex toy? Why would he be using me as a pawn to get the throne?I don't stand any chance of being the Luna of the Nightshade Pack since I've never shifted into my wolf form, which means I can never be a threat to the throne. Everything I just heard didn't make sense to me.I thought Lucas loved me as much as I did love him but now it was all clear that I was just one of his flings. It all began to make sense slowly. The entire Matilda story was never a lie. Lucas and Matilda had something going on but how was I so dumb not to realize that the red flag has been staring at me all this while?As I walked into my room, I felt the whole space spinning and my breath was caught up in my throat. I collap
