ALARIC

“Students, as you all know, it’s the last round. And this is going to decide who amongst you would stay in the pack and who would leave! Are you ready?” Selena Dark called all the students in a commanding tone. Her voice held authority as if she had forced the students to follow her words without forcing them. Strange!

“So, for this round, we would test your uniqueness. This is to ensure that you are the best version of yourself. Werewolves are known to possess special powers. This test would bring out your special powers.” Selena announced to the students and her back faced me.

Still, I felt her deep piercing gaze on me. She paused for a bit. She wanted submission from the students. And… she had that.

“Let me be clear. One of you would be eliminated, unlike the previous round.” Selena said and her eyes landed on Gianna’s figure. She had predatory eyes. She radiated the aura, the vibes that she

    ALARICI closed the gap between Gianna and me. My arms wrapped around her protectively. Selena had been watching this from the corner of her eyes. That smirk didn’t leave her face, not even for a split second. And I was starting to get irritated. I wondered what was going on in that woman's mind.Gianna appeared weak, pale, and discharged. It was as if her energy had been sucked away. She smiled softly. But her lips didn’t lift. My heart pained for her.The moment she stepped into my territory, I had protected her from everything. Today, I was helpless. Ashton and mother were correct in saying that I should let Gianna discover herself. I couldn’t be overprotective. But I couldn’t help it either.I caressed Gianna’s head. She rested her head over my chest.“You did very well, G. I am proud of your chubby little legs. They carried you through the trial rounds.” Noah suppressed laughter, but Gianna smiled. It

    VIVIANA“Emaaa….!!” I shouted at top of my lungs. I felt the air leave my throat when my eyes landed over the contents of this blue file.Emma had heard my shrill cry. Yet! She hid her figure behind the shut door. I banged the blue file over the study table. Few particles of dust fanned around with my gesture. It was horrific. How the hell did she!I banged my fists over the shut door.“I know you are in there. I know you are sticking your problematic-nasty ass with the door frame. Come out. Right now. Emma…!” I yelled once more repeating my action.I sounded like a madwoman. Well! I was a madwoman. All this was because of Emma. She still didn’t exit the room. My patience had been running out. I banged loudly again. The door shuddered under that force. My lips quirked up.“Emma… be a good pup and come out. I will hear your explanation first.” I said. Was I going to? I wasn’

  • The Rejected Alpha    The Information

    ALARIC“How is she?” I jumped on my spot when father suddenly questioned. I wasn’t prepared for this. I thought he would wait for me in the hall. He was alone. Mom maybe was in the kitchen. Ashton had left for his room to rest, and I dismissed Noah too. He helped me in the trials a lot.“You just scared me, dad. You could have waited in the hallway.” I said. Father scanned my face for answers.“I didn’t want to wait. I know you too are desperate, Alaric. I can see it in your eyes. Something is bothering you.” Father said. He had been a great dad. He always knew me the best, without me even saying something.“Let’s go somewhere else. Shall we?” I searched father’s face. He nodded. Was it the time? Was I ready? What if something unexpected crawled out of the blue? Was I prepared for that part? I questioned my inner self but shrugged the thoughts.It didn’t matter anymore. V

    ALARIC“We are on time, mom. Where is Ashton? Wasn’t he also supposed to be present here?” I asked mom who was fidgeting with her fingers. Who would believe that she was the Luna or our pack! She was way too restless. I hadn’t seen her this uneasy. Why! And that brat Ashton was nowhere to be found.“I don’t know, but I am worried about Gianna. I mean, you know the ritual is a bit scary. Besides, it’s her first-time experiencing something like this. I wonder how would she cope with it!” Mom whispered, her words lacking confidence.I hugged her shoulders tight. It was my way to calm her. She had been the one to care for Gianna. Everyone was pestering me that I had shielded Gianna from the world, but in truth… it was my mother. She was the real protector. Mom smiled at me. Ashton hugged her on the other side.“Where have you been? You were supposed to arrive with us.” I glared at Ashton. His

    ALARICNoah took over my responsibility of handling my little sister. He carried her in his arms. Though it was his duty as my beta, I didn’t want him to do this.No one understood what just happened. Was Gianna a part of my pack now? Or not? I second that. I pried into Dad and Mom’s direction. They had horrified faces as if they had witnessed something they shouldn’t have. Ashton was way too worried about Gianna.He kept on cleaning her bleeding hands. Gianna was made to lay over the nearby raised rocky surface that had been cast in the form of a sitting bench. Her body was pale. How long would this go on? How long would she have to endure this pain?I fisted my palms. I was raged beyond a saturation point. Everyone in the counsel had left including Mrs. Amanda, Mr. Hale, and Miss. Omaka. The left ones were family. Dad’s eyes kept scanning Gianna from far. He didn’t approach her. What was it? Was he having any second t

    VIVIANAThe drive from the precinct after getting my luggage to the Samara Plateau was indeed a long one. A tiring one. And I was drained. My muscles were sore and my neck hurt like hell. The field today was a bit over the board.The cat and mouse chase with that asshole of a kidnapper finally ended when I nabbed him. That bastard took out his knife to slice my vitals. Thanks to my wolf side. Miracle was over-cautious. I saved my ass and put him behind the bars.The fatty kept yelling that he would teach me a lesson. I rewarded him with middle fingers. ‘Try me, fatty,’ were the words I mouthed at him. Emma would have laughed out loud in that situation. The fatty turned pale in anger. Stupid!Now, I wanted to rest, lay down, and sleep. But I had to reach Alaric. He must have been waiting for me. The phone was long dead. I didn’t get the time to charge it. Alaric must have tried calling me. I was relieved when the cab mister offered me a c

    ALARICI was pissed. At what? Oh, well, everything. I was pissed at everyone and everything. Gianna was pale and unconscious. Was she now a pack member or not? This wasn’t clear. Yet. I tried to call her, to reach her using my Alpha bond, but in vain. She wasn’t up.I was away. Away from everything that had been going on. Gianna's condition. The bloody ritual that had her hurt. That suspicious, domineering woman, Selena Dark, and most of all My Mate… My Viviana. I wanted her. I yearned for her. Her gorgeous face flashed in my eyes and I was near the edge.I was losing. I was losing it bit by bit. Point by point. Fraction by fraction. The authority seemed to be slipping out of my palms like the grains of hot sand, burning my skin to bones. I couldn’t do anything. I was left out like a spectator.Moon was adamant. He kept pressing over the fact that it was a need beginning. A storm had been formed, and a tornado laced with a d

    VIVIANAMiracle picked up Moon's scent. The perk of mating. She was joyous. She could feel him. I wondered if Moon alerted Alaric that I had invaded the Plateau already and he didn’t have to fetch me. It was a surprise.“Don’t worry. Moon won’t let Alaric know. I told him not to.” I heard Miracle. Oh… she had been a good wolf today. Why won’t she? After all, she would get to Moon in some minutes. It’s been a few days. I knew how bad it could be to stay apart.I kept pressing the grass beneath my boots and kept moving. It was a dark alley. Nobody was there. I had been walking for a good five minutes now. I didn’t see anything. No car, no guards, not even Noah. Was I headed in the right direction? Miracle won’t mistake Moon for anyone.“Of course, I won’t, Viviana.” Miracle said. I bet she had rolled her eyes at me. I did the same.“When would you stop doing that?&rd

  • The Rejected Alpha    Epilogue

    ~TWO YEARS LATER~ALARICI had a meeting to attend in the other state. I checked the clock. It was already 8 in the morning. And I was making breakfast. I flipped the pancake-like a pro. Satisfaction washed over me. I recalled my earlier cooking days. It was such a mess. I was punished every time I was mistaken, or something burned.And my judge was none other than my beautiful wife, Viviana. Yes, we got married almost a year and a half ago. Viviana insisted I learn how to cook. She wanted privacy. So, we didn’t have any regular cooks or maids.It was an advantage. We used to fuck everywhere in the house. It was such a time. Even after almost five hundred and fifty days of us being husband and wife, the romance, the steam, and spark were high. Viviana was always ready for it.Such a naughty wife she is! I chuckled at the thought. Yesterday, Viviana spilled a full bowl of ice cream over me when I just stepped out of the shower. She giggled and

    VIVIANA“Stay there, wolf. Don’t step ahead with those judging eyeballs. This wouldn’t have happened if you listened to me. I told you to let her be. But you…” Selena scoffed. I looked at her dark eyes. It was coming. The truth. Alaric didn’t have to hear it like this. I didn’t want it. But guess I was already out of options.“What do you mean? You kidnapped Gianna, you hurt her, and you say you want the good for me? Aren’t you being diplomatic here?” Alaric asked. He wasn’t calm. Not yet. His popping veins confirmed it. But Selena was correct. He wasn’t a fault.This was all predestined. The catch was, that we had our choices to change the course of destiny.It was horrible.“What do you think? Oh! You naïve Alpha! Do you think all this… is about you?” Selena paused and laughed. Her laughter echoed. Baspo and Noah had left with Gianna already. Selena d

  • The Rejected Alpha    Confrontation With Selena

    VIVIANA“Viviana, what’s this place? I… how you do know about it? I have never been here before! What’s all this?” I heard Alaric behind me. I calmed. Lady Ravoise vanished. Baspo stayed at the abode. The reverse waterfall returned to its original state. Everything went back to how it was earlier.“It’s The Óre,” I said to a baffled Alaric and Noah. They were covered in the same robes that Baspo had. I was laced with the flames.“I sensed Gianna here. She is nearby. I suggest that we should split and search for her.” I said. Time was running. We had to find Gianna before midnight. Once the moon was at its peak, Selena would be able to get away, even though I succeed in defeating her. I didn’t wish that.I wanted her end. Today. Here. Right in this place.Alaric scanned my eyes.“I want the same.” He whispered in my ears. I ordered Baspo and Noah to search t

    VIVIANA“Baspo, we need to hurry. We are running out of time.” I urged Baspo who kept guiding me the way. We were away from Alaric and Noah. They couldn’t enter without being allowed. But Gianna did. That was another question. I couldn’t get to rephrase it. I heard a howl. A loud one. It collided with the sky and reverberated back. Straight into my ears. To be precise, Miracle’s ears.Miracle paused. Baspo didn’t. He kept moving. His pace was fast. Faster than I anticipated. He understood the situation. But how would he react after getting to know about his late mother? Another upsetting question.“Luna, what happened? Why did you stop?” Baspo made it to my mind. He linked with me. Strange! How was that …?“The Goddess…” I heard Miracle say. Okay, so the legendary Moon Goddess, Selene, blessed me with the power of mind-link without marking my mate! Impressive.“That how

  • The Rejected Alpha    The Moment

    ALARIC I couldn’t believe my ears. Did I hear it correctly? Did Viviana say all that? Was I hallucinating? Well, it wasn’t me to be precise. It was Moon and Miracle now. We shifted as per Viviana’s say. She mentioned that she know where Gianna was.It was good. I felt relaxed, although just 0.1 percent. But at least, something was better than nothing. She mentioned some place called The Óre. I never heard of it before. Not in my whole life. And Viviana insisted that the place had been in Samara since the beginning.How weird! I wondered if my family was cognizant of that Óre.We geared up and Viviana chose to fill me through what happened to her on the way. She said we were an hour away from that place. I wanted that. I wanted answers. That would calm my racing mind and heart. And the moment she started talking, I was horrified.Selena Dark, Selene- the Holy Moon Goddess, The Óre, Gi

    ALARICMoon let go of me the moment Miracle shifted. It was all weird. So strange. So different. So impossible. I was short of words. What the hell just happened?I witnessed it. Miracle was all wrapped up in the fire, raised from the ground, howling at the Moon. The next moment, she was eating it. She just ate that shit or whatsoever it was, to begin with.The most insane thing about all this mess was that she was fine. Not even a single burn. Not a single scratch. She looked like a newly polished mirror. Was I even saying it right? My words and sentences appeared jumbled. Well, not my fault. It was the situation.It was a situation.And now, Viviana was here. She lay unconscious in my arms, and naked too. I felt like transported back in time. It happened before. That Forest of the city. She was like this that day too. I saw her mark for the first time.My eyes followed her curves and landed on her mark. It was glowing. Same as the other da

  • The Rejected Alpha    The Truth

    VIVIANA I kept staring. My eyes wanted the goddess to answer. Why wasn’t she saying anything? I was restless. Gianna was out there, captive. I had to save her. We need to go. And here, she wasn’t ready to talk.“You want to know?” Selene asked. Her angelic aura was so pure. She was heavenly. She was the mother. Whenever she said anything, I felt calm. My anger subsided. I was melting. I nodded.“Selena is born out of hatred, jealousy, anger, and broken heart, as I mentioned. And you, Viviana, weren’t supposed to be a pure-blooded Sun-wolf. But your mother was anxious. She was afraid. She was scared for your future. So, she promised Zelda.”“At that time, Zelda didn’t know the truth about Selena. She borrowed the power of anger, and fury and cast it into your mother’s womb. That power; was nothing but Selena’s part.” Selene mentioned. I gasped. What the hell

    VIVIANAThe woman smiled. I was disgusted. How dare she? She even infiltrated my mind! I won’t let her be. I was furious. I wanted out. I wanted Miracle to stay aside. But Miracle wasn’t in her senses. She was eating fire like pancakes.The sun was nowhere. The full moon decorated the sky and the fog cleared off my mind. Gianna. I remembered her. She needed me. Now, more than ever. And I was here. My wolf was busy eating the fire, and I was fucking trapped in her mind with this woman.“How dare you? Where is my sister? Where did you keep her?” I shouted at top of my lungs. We searched the whole Samara, but Gianna was nowhere. Noah kept hearing her loud cries in his mind. While I and Alaric couldn’t do anything.I have never been this useless in my life. I felt pathetic. But the woman smiled. She kept smiling.“Stop smiling, Selena. Answer me, where is my sister?” I kept asking. The woman started approaching

Every passing second gave me anxiety. I was scared for Gianna. Where could she be? How was she? I didn’t know it. I didn’t know any of it.Alaric huffed. His condition wasn’t good. Noah’s eyes were red. He was in pain too. What the hell was happening exactly?“Miracle, what is happening?” I asked my wolf. Maybe she sensed something that I couldn’t. Miracle growled, grumbled, winced, and then whimpered. She was in pain.“Mate is suffering,” Miracle replied with a whimper. Moon wasn’t in a good state of predicament. Time wa running.
