Lahat ng Kabanata ng Once Rejected, Now Desired : Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

SOPHIACall me crazy for agreeing to his sick terms, but I did not have a choice. Dark Moon pack was the only home I had ever known. I lost my father at the age of eight, I had never known my mother's identity, I only knew that she abandoned me at the hospital with a letter addressed to my father, telling him she wasn't ready to be a mother or to be married. Whether she was alive or dead, I didn't have the faintest idea. After my father died in an accident while running errands for the beta as his personal assistant, the beta and his wife, Beta Maximus and lady Miranda, thought it best to adopt me, and that was how I ended up growing up with Adeline, Hailey and Marilyn Blane - the beta's daughters - who stopped at nothing to make my life miserable. I agreed to the job, knowing that I would be in the same environment with Asher. He would see me from time to time, and maybe - just maybe - it would change his mind. I hoped to remind him of all the love we had shared, all the dreams and

ASHER "Whatever shall we do, your highness?!" "He is getting worse as the days go by!" "We need help, serious help. Call whoever you need to, my king, my family and I would pay, but I cannot sit back and watch my son die in the hands of a thing we do not even know, and I..." "Silence!" I growled, raising the index finger of my right hand to the crowd of ten men kneeling in front of me. One of them held onto the hem of my robe and I kicked his hand away. I didn't need any of them touching me. Not after irritating me with their constant whining. "Listen. I have said this before and I would say it again. The elders and I are working on a solution. We have contacted a famous doctor from Crescent Heart, whom we believe can help, and she would be here soon. There is no cause for alarm." I did not know where my elders had seen her, or heard about her, but she has achieved great feats in Crescent Heart, and was known for her most famous research paper on small pox, which helped cure it

ASHER The sounds of flesh slapping against each other filled my room and I moaned out in pleasure, willing myself into the intoxicating feeling of the good sex I was enjoying.I moaned again, this time, in almost the same rhythm as that of the lady under me who was on the mission of burying her claws inside my back, and I increased the pace with which I thrust into her to match her energy.This was what I had turned to since Adeline toyed with my feelings -a king who pays hookers to see himself as a man.“Argh!” She screamed with a pleasure filled voice and a smug of satisfaction appeared on my face.A knock came and the door to the room, almost immediately the door pushed open.I flashed a quick glance at the door to see Gaston stepping inside, and I chewed my teeth in anger, “whatever do you need now, Gaston?”“Sorry to disturb you, Alpha Asher but, this is a very crucial matter, you must know now that the doctor has arrived.”I collapsed on top of the girl on hearing Gaston's voi

ASHER I don't know which was more difficult to believe; seeing Sophia after many years or the fact that she had gotten better within those years.I mean, the last time I saw her, she was an eighteen year old and a weak omega who couldn't make a decision without consulting me but, now she was… she was a whole different person and don't get me started on the way she handled her son like a professional doctor, which she was, I know but, I was awestruck by her skills.Our relationship then was all she had, but now, she had a profession and three kids to her name. My eyes trailed her body and I couldn't help but, notice the changes in her, eight years passed and Sophia turned a beautiful, courageous and admirable mother while I was just… just a shadow of my former self without an heir, or the ability to make one.With her face still bright with smiles, Sophia, looked up at me with the golden brown eyes I used to love. past tense? I quickly looked away from her and focused my gaze on the

ASHER Clouds of murmuring filled the air as I stepped into the courtroom. Elders who stood by the door bowed their heads in greeting only out of obligation - that, I knew - and murmured some words as I walked past them. “The Alpha is here,” Gaston announced, grateful that I came back in time to save his head from being chopped off by the elders.The man feared them for reasons I would never understand. I proceeded to occupy my position on the throne as the room quieted down, and the elders stood to greet me.“May the Alpha always find favor in the sight of the goddess.” they chorused and I hummed. Their greetings, I was certain, were merely chants and not a prayer, as it seemed to be. I knew not one of them was happy I was seated on the throne before them. I wasn't an idiot. I could tell by the frown that snuck into their faces when I turned away from them. “Please,” I said, motioning to them to take their seats, “to what do I owe this early morning summon?”“To what do you ow
