Vengeance of The Rejected Mate Chapter 33 - The Bar
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVAt the very moment that we stepped foot inside our pack house, I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion since no one had their eyes fixed on us. A pack warrior from the opposing pack was with us, and yet no one bothered to react, which was kind of unusual. It was as if Ace's presence wasn't sensed by all of them."Are you hiding your scent or are you invisible to their vision?" I couldn't contain my curiosity any longer, so I asked him as we proceeded to walk towards the center of the lobby of our mansion.Ace chuckled, covering his mouth with his left fist, which was formed into a tight ball. "You can't be serious..." he murmured before he stopped laughing. "Did you really think that I'd barge in here without informing Alpha Lucas?"I gasped at the realization that he managed to persuade that strict alpha of ours to let him in. "It can't be helped, Ace. After all, I believe that Alpha Lucas doesn't want to let me near anyone from your pack, thinking that I might
Vengeance of The Rejected Mate Chapter 34 - The Attempt
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVEven though I wanted to surrender myself to darkness and let both Ace and Ice take care of me as they see fit, I just can't let my consciousness drift away. I still don't know what kind of trial Ace wanted me to go through, but if this would actually help me out with revoking the curse, then I should just see it through to the end."I think she's not in the right condition to do whatever you're planning, Ace. If you won't let her go tonight, then I might have no other choice but to kick you out of here myself," Ice coldly muttered.My arms were lifted by Ace. He removed Ice's grip on me and let himself take control. "Your role here is done, Ice. I have no other business with you; you can leave the two of us alone now," Ace replied, wrapping both of my arms around his neck after placing me behind him.I could feel my feet being dragged away as Ace began to step forth, which was immediately stopped by Ice. "At least let me come with you if you have no intention
Vengeance of The Rejected Mate Chapter 35 - The Relation
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVMy shoulders were continuously shook by someone, who only stopped at the very second that I opened my eyes, only to see that it was Lucas who had his messy hair on."You've been unconscious for literally half a day, Celestina..." Lucas mumbled, helping me to rise from the bed, but later on gently pushed me back to rest my head on the pillows. "If you know that you're not a heavy drinker, then you shouldn't have agreed to what they wanted to do, Celestina. You could've gotten yourself in danger. You're only lucky that Ice was with you back there," he added, letting me assume that he was worried."You're one to speak, Alpha Lucas..." I sighed, shaking my head to tease him a bit. "If you knew that you were going to be this anxious about my situation with Ace, then you shouldn't have allowed him to get me drunk," I said, copying the exact same way that he spoke.Lucas rolled his eyes along with a click of his tongue. "Know your place, Celestina. I simply didn't w
Vengeance of The Rejected Mate Chapter 36 - The History I
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVFilled with curiosity, I still don't understand how Stella and I were related to one another, knowing that I was just involuntarily taken into this realm by the moon goddess. I was once a human; that fact was the only thing that I'm sure of, and that's also the only one that I'm holding onto now.But the possibility that I was literally born and raised in the Realm of Xenon, where werewolves and other creatures exist, was making me think twice about my whole identity. I could no longer distinguish between reality and what's not. I clearly know that I was on the verge of death when I fell from the edge of that cliff, but the memories after that scenario are all vague in my mind."If we're sisters... then you probably know me since birth, right?" I asked Stella, hoping that she'd just bow her head, but she chose to do the opposite. "You don't know anything about me? Or were you ordered by the alpha not to speak about my past?" I tried to divert the question and
Vengeance of The Rejected Mate Chapter 37 - The History II
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVI was too stunned to speak when I heard the truth directly from Ice. Although there was still a part of me that refused to believe him. "Why are you only telling me this now? You could have done so earlier; it's not like anyone would lose their life if you told me the truth!" I couldn't maintain my composure."Calm down, Celestina. I'm still hesitant to tell you about this until now, but I don't think that Lucas is joking that he'd tell you about it if I don't." Ice held my forearm gently to cool me. "Going back... I'm sure you've heard from your father that I couldn't make it out alive there, right?"I shook my head. "I don't remember anything about that. I already told Ace that I have no memories of my parents and that I was probably raised in this realm without anyone by my side," I answered to cut off his assumption that I still know them.Ice's lips were slightly parted. "The moon goddess removed that much of your memories?" He glanced at Lucas, as if th
Vengeance of The Rejected Mate Chapter 38 - The Return
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVThe past few days have all felt like a dream to me. There wasn't a single minute wherein I thought that I was really breathing in this realm. Especially when I heard the truth from Ice, and now that the alpha wanted me to go back to the Crimson Moon Pack, where my mate resides and also where his enemy was. I still can't understand what's running through Lucas' mind, but one thing is for sure: he doesn't want to see me get beaten by Stella.I felt the same way when Stella and I were in a duel. Lucas wanted me to unleash all my strength just to take her down, or maybe Stella was really just unbeatable at that point."Are you sure about this, Alpha Lucas?" I asked as I held on to my own wrist. "Won't you regret this later on? I thought you didn't want anyone from your pack to abandon and betray you?" I added.Alpha Lucas nodded his head with a small smile. "Go now before I change my mind and before Stella notices that you're about to go there. I won't accompany
Vengeance of The Rejected Mate Chapter 39 - The Hunt I
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POV"I'm the one who invited her here, Alpha Siege. Don't be too hard on her; she recently came back here," Amelia told the alpha, who still hadn't removed his fingers from my shoulders even though they were already gushing out blood. "We were in the middle of a discussion too, so if you may please let her go..." She stepped in front of me, and I could see the concern through the depths of her eyes.Amelia attempted to pull Siege's hand away from me, but it was already buried deeply, and once it got pulled out, it would definitely give me a wound that wouldn't heal. Even so, she didn't give up on me. Those little hisses of Siege made me think that Amelia was the only one here that he could never oppose.As if those words he said earlier was only a mere threat by mouth, but he won't even take it seriously."You're lucky that you stumbled upon her. If not, I would've taken your life," Siege muttered before he released me, letting me regenerate at will. "Forget abou
Vengeance of The Rejected Mate Chapter 40 - The Hunt II
CELESTINA VILLARAMA’S POVWhen I first saw those ocean eyes of the alpha, I knew that he was someone to be feared. He didn’t claim the title of alpha just for fun, and he definitely was the only one deserving of that rank, which even Lucas could not reach.It has been about an hour or two since we began our search. I initially assumed that Siege would be leaving me behind, but he didn’t. Though I wanted to leave on my own and search at my own pace, he just kept on following me around. It was like he wanted to let me feel that he wouldn’t abandon me, just like Kristoffer did to him.“Why are we even finding him in the woods?” I asked him, breaking the silence between us. “Are you sure that he can be found here? What if he traveled to the opposing pack and was just looking for me?” I added to my query.“Kris isn’t an idiot. He’d never go there without my permit, and besides, he has no reason to pay you a visit,” Siege answered briefly, not batting an eye at me. “Focus on your surroundin

Vengeance of The Rejected Mate Chapter 95 - The New Beginning
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVI should've believed my guts from the start. And if I did, then Ice wouldn't have had to act as a sacrifice for us to survive and win against the Moon Goddess. I never imagined that he could've been this risky, since I knew him as the type of person who values his own life more than anyone else's."Ice!" I yelled out his name, trying to reach out to him, but he was already too far away from me. "Damn it, Ace! Did the two of you plan this beforehand? Was this why you prevented him from telling me whatever it was?" I questioned him out of frustration, even though I already knew the answer to it.Ace couldn't bear to look me in the eye because of the guilt that was surging in his mind. "I'm sorry. This was the only way for us to live and get through this, Celestina. I already asked him a lot of times to think this over, but Ice insisted that he should be the sacrifice if it comes down to it," he explained. He kept on playing with his fingers while his head was b
Vengeance of The Rejected Mate Chapter 94 - The Sacrificial Leader
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVI screamed to stop the Moon Goddess from erasing the portal's existence. I've been desperately waiting for it to show itself for years, and now that I finally have the chance to get back to my world, I won't let Sarina ruin my dream."Don't do it, Celestina. Do you know what will happen to you if you kill Sarina?" Siege questioned me. His voice was still filled with authority, but there was also a hint of concern in it. "You're going to end up with the same fate as her; you'll die the very second that she dies. That's why there still wasn't anyone who dared to take her life, since it's the same as killing themselves," he explained.Sarina chuckled upon hearing the alpha's explanation. "If you don't want her to take my life, would you do the honor of killing me?" she asked out of pure curiosity.I glanced at Siege, waiting for what his response would be, but his mouth remained shut for minutes. That silence was enough for me to confirm that he's not prepared t
Vengeance of The Rejected Mate Chapter 93 - The Eradication
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVAt first glance, I didn't think that Sarina would descend at this kind of time when a lot of people were still awake. And as expected, all of those around us had their eyes focused on the Moon Goddess. They probably haven't seen them from such a close distance before, which wasn't the case for me.I sensed Stella holding my fingertips, and even if it was just that, I could still feel how strongly she was shaking. It might have been because of the dominant presence of Sarina, or maybe she was just afraid that she might get punished for desiring to take my spot."I came here in case you forgot about the portal, Celestina Villarama." Sarina broke the silence between us, and my eyes widened, realizing that I only thought of the upcoming judgment day and not the next summons of the portal. "In less than a few minutes, the portal is going to show itself in the place where you saw it together with them," she added.The Moon Goddess didn't bother to take a few steps
Vengeance of The Rejected Mate Chapter 92 - The Judgment Day
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVThe woman that all of us didn't want to see this duel barged into the beta's room, and right when I thought that she would yell and demand that they stop, she chose to stand by with such a brazen expression on her face. "Stella," I whispered my sister's name, and she didn't even bother to glance at me—not until she was finally taken aback and her consciousness seemed to have returned to reality."Celestina, what's happening here?" Stella asked me, slowly approaching me as she looked twice at the Wongs siblings, who were still rumbling on one another. "Why are they fighting in their wolf forms? I know that they're supposed to have their regular training sessions, but they never shifted before because of training," she added.The way that Stella sounded genuinely curious about the scenario she stepped into made me feel like she hated to see them in a duel too."If I tell you that I'm the reason why they're having a duel right now, will you believe and forgive m
Vengeance of The Rejected Mate Chapter 91 - The Duel
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVThe way that Kris never spoke right after he saw the mark on his brother's neck made me feel a little bit guilty. I know that I shouldn't be feeling this way since he's not really my mate to begin with, but the way that I got his hopes up that I'd be choosing him and sticking together with him in his new pack that he planned to build was just disappointing.I nudged Siege's arm with my elbow as we were heading inside the Crimson Moon Pack's mansion. He was beside me, and Kris was the one taking the lead."What's wrong with Kris?" I asked, my voice almost coming out like a whisper. "I haven't seen him get this furious before," I added, referring to how Kris wasn't talking to us at all.Siege shrugged his shoulders, pouting. "He's probably hurt that you've got your eyes on me now, unlike before, when he still stood a chance against me," he answered, feeling proud of himself that he was finally able to claim me from his brother.We crossed through the lobby, hea
Vengeance of The Rejected Mate Chapter 90 - The Pleasure
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVFor the entire night yesterday, I wasn't able to sleep, not even for a minute or two. We had to rest at the same place where Siege killed the Silver Moon Pack's alpha and beta, so it was absolutely uncomfortable for me. Their scent was infuriating to my nose, and it just kept getting stinkier every minute that passed by.Siege wanted to dispose of their bodies in a way that no one would be able to find their corpses, but he had no idea how to do so.I suggested setting their bodies on fire, but it would still gather the pack members' attention, so he made up his mind that he would just make an official announcement that he killed the both of them and that they were the first ones to challenge him to a duel.As their rules were originally set, once someone challenged the other party into a duel, either one of the two had to die, no matter who it was. And now that Siege has done it, he will definitely be the strongest wolf in the whole Dark Valley."Are you goi
Vengeance of The Rejected Mate Chapter 89 - The End of A Long Night
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVThe aura that emitted from Siege was bursting with intense bloodlust, even though he was still not shifted to his wolf form. In each step that he made towards Lucas and Leo, he was glowing in a mixture of a dark and crimson aura."Give me Celestina's pendant back, Leo. I'll give you three seconds to hand it to me," Siege seriously mumbled. He wasn't even looking at any of them, and despite watching them from behind, I can see how Siege was only glancing at his feet."Oh, is this what you're after?" Leo showed him the pendant, waving it in front of his face to force Siege to look at it.The beta of the Silver Moon Pack attempted to break the pendant, but he was unsuccessful in every attempt he made. I couldn't help but smirk upon witnessing how much he humiliated himself in front of Siege because of that failure.I guess Sarina was still on my side after all."You thought that you were being protected by the Moon Goddess?" Siege scoffed, finally raising his he
Vengeance of The Rejected Mate Chapter 88 - The Escape II
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVEven after all of those provocations that I gave Leo, I still have no concrete plan on how I can possibly take someone as strong as him down. However, despite the difference in our strengths, I still have the will to fight back because of the moral support that I'm getting from Siege. And besides, he's also in a bind because of Lucas.I never imagined that these two would actually team up and yearn to defeat us, since all along, I seriously believed that Lucas wasn't on good terms with Leo. And it's now making me wonder if Ice was also on the same side as his alpha and beta, or if he had a different mindset than the two."When are you going to stop this farce? I'm getting exhausted from all of these; I just want to live a peaceful life; can't you at least grant me that?" I asked, which was followed by a loud sigh. "I don't deserve to experience all these, do I? I mean, I wasn't even born here; what right do you have to make me suffer like this?" I added to ma
Vengeance of The Rejected Mate Chapter 87 - The Escape I
CELESTINA VILLARAMA'S POVIt's not that I have no other choice left. Deep down, I was really waiting for the time that Siege would end up breaking in between my pledge with Kris, and that was the main reason why I paused and hesitated before.I nodded my head. "You should also promise the same thing. I don't care anymore if you've really gotten Stella pregnant; just get her out of the Crimson Moon Pack. I want to be your Luna, and I can't bear seeing my sister taking my spot," I said, which came out of my mouth instead of letting it be said through our mind-link.Siege placed his hand above my head, slowly ruffling my hair, saying that I was beautiful. It was the first time for me to hear him call me beautiful now that I'm a grownup. I know that Siege endlessly called me pretty when we were kids, but I never took it seriously since we were still young back then.He moved away from me, telling me to stand still at the corner and let him handle things with Lucas and Leo. I kept on remin
