All Chapters of Alpha Rejected By His Human Mate: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

"I just want to know how you left the ward." Still laughing, Edmund was now again the gentle and warm man Lilith woke up to, "Is that a secret?"His sudden change of attitude made Lilith frown in confusion."Could you please indulge me of this one question?" Edmund bowed at Lilith with much earnest, "You may leave after this."Lilith's face softened at his humble gesture. The stern look was gone, but was replaced by a naughty smile: "Fair enough. No, it's not a secret."To her surprise, Edmund was not annoyed by her rebellion but instead was amused."I thought I told you to stay where you were." His hands in his pocket, Edmund leaned in with a grin."And I should obey your command because...?" Lilith asked with a polite and restrained tone."No reason! Haha..." Edmund burst into laughter again, "I'm sorry, this is just really interesting.""Sure." Lilith frowned at Edmund's sudden laughter: "Well, I'm leaving now. If you can gi

"Boss. I got her for you." Buster knocked on the door and got in after he got approval from Edmund. Looking up, the first thing Edmund caught with his eyes was the pout on Lilith's face, but she didn't notice that Edmund put something in his drawer the moment they came in. "I thought we have an agreement." Edmund pushed the file in front of him a bit further away, smirking at Lilith, "I don't remember putting down 'try to escape' as part of your job description, my little maid." "I'm NOT," Lilith threw off Buster's hand on her arm, "trying to escape!" "Then why does my loyal guard has to bring you in like this?" Edmund chuckled as he came out of his desk, "Having fun playing hide and seek?" "And I don't remember losing my total freedom is part of the deal either!" Lilith protested furiously, "I wouldn't have to try to get out if I didn't lose my phone in the crash." Edmund rose his eyebrow and closed his drawer with a natural move as h

"Can we talk, please?" Edmund put his hand softly on Lilith's bedroom door but no one answered. "I haven't been eating all day." Edmund said jokingly, "Missing a little maid serving my poisonous meals." Still Silence. "I haven't really got time to talk to you, and that's my fault. I just want to know you more..." Edmund muttered to the door in front of his face. Yet again, silence. Edmund knew what he had to say, the thing that Lilith wanted to hear but he just wasn't used to say it...ever. "I know I overreacted yesterday, and I'm sorry, okay?!" Edmund sighed before he rose his voice defeatedly, "I AM sorry. You didn't do anything wrong, well, except--" Voices rose, but not from the room. It was from the hallway-- "What's the boss doing?" "Talking to a door...well, correction, apologizing to a door." "Apologizing?!" "Shhhhhh!" Edmund rolled his eyes. Shouldn't they know that he was a were

Sat in silence, Ann had been wiping tears off her cheeks for the whole ride home. Her father had not said a word after he shouted "shut up" at her in front of the whole high level at the archbishop's place. It wasn't like it was her fault that the archbishop suddenly went back on his words! Ann felt as if the anger and shame were burning inside her. "Father." Ann opened her mouth when the tears finally stopped. She knew her father wouldn't want to talk to her in tears because "tears are weak". Yet no answer. "Father, I'm sor--" "Shut up." Said her father sternly. "Mike." Ann's mother put a hand on her husband's arm, "There wasn't much she could do." "She could have NOT humiliated me in front of the whole coven!" Ann's father replied coldly, "What was that farce?! Yelling at the archbishop like a baby demanding a candy bar?!" "I'm sorry." Ann bit her lips white, trying to hold back her tears. "Sto

"I'm so glad you are here!" Lilith was still staring at the "failed call" on her screen when Jacob opened the door and dashed toward her with open arms. "Jacob." Said Lilith in a sullen tone when she took a step back and avoided the hug that she had enjoyed for years. Jacob paused with a frozen smile on his face before he put down his arms awkwardly: "Well... Come on in! Please, let's get inside first." Lilith followed him in silence. "Lilith!" Emma jumped off the bed the second she saw Lilith appearing from behind Jacob, "Are you alright?!" "I'm okay!" Lilith chuckled a bit at Emma's exaggerated reaction, "Just a little bump on the head, I'm fine. How about you? You look so pale..." Lilith's worried eyes moved from Emma's pale face to her bandaged shoulder: "What happened to you?!" Emma glanced at Jacob in a panicked look and that caught Lilith's eyes. "Emma--" Lilith looked into Emma's eyes, and it was too ins
