All Chapters of Rejected: You Are Mine, Alpha: Chapter 181 - Chapter 190

As we prepared for the ceremony of Alphas that King Dexter was hosting, I couldn’t help but feel strange. Ever since I got here, Dexter had been making moves on me, but for some reason, everytime he came close to me, all I could recall was Leonardo. This time, I wouldn’t recall that he cheated on me, but rather the fact that I was going to be cheating on him.I took in a deep inhale as I walked into my room, crashing into the bed as tears streamed down my cheeks. It’d been weeks since I got here. It’d been weeks already since I made my way to this pack and Dexter was doing his best to get close to me, so why wasn’t I letting him into my life?Everyday, I told myself that I wanted to move on. Every single day, I reminded myself that I didn’t deserve the life that was thrown at me in the past and that I deserved to actually be happy, but everytime I tried to move on, I just couldn’t. I buried my face in my hands, weeks had passed since I left Leonardo, but then, I couldn’t stop thinking

“New mate?” I asked him, trying hard to force my tears back in, and just then, she rushed to me as she took my hand in hers, and in her eyes, even though she was smiling, I could see that she didn’t mean it, and I had to admit, she could feign smiles.“You’re alive, Cora. Wow. Leo, your second mate is alive.” She told him, and with that, she rushed to him as she took his hand, planting a kiss on it, and doing that, she smiled as she turned back to me. “Trust me, more than Leonardo, I’m happy that you’re alive, but can you please not interfere in our lives anymore?” She asked me, and I raised my right brow as I stared at her, confused.“Pardon?” I asked her, and Leonardo turned her away as he covered her mouth.“Don’t listen to anything she says, Cora. Listen to me, we need to talk.” He told me, and I shook my head as I took his hands off her mouth.“If there’s anyone I’ll be listening to here, it’s her.” I told him, and with that, I turned to her, only saying, “pardon?”“Cecelia, don’

CORA’s POV….Pulling my knees to my chest, recalling everything that had happened last night and how for the first time in such a long time, I got to see Leonardo again, tears streamed down my cheeks.I held on to my chest, I already knew he was this kind of man, so why did it still hurt so much? I made everyone believe I was dead, I forged my own death so why did it still hurt me that he moved on from me so quickly?When I was alive, on the day he was supposed to mark me, he went to another wolf, so why did I think when I “died”, he would remember me?I took in a deep inhale as I hit my head against the bed, screaming in anger and frustration as more tears streamed down my cheeks. As if betraying me wasn’t enough, of course, he had to bring another woman to a ceremony I told him was my dream.Life wasn’t like I thought it was. It wasn’t like what I saw in the movies so why did I let it hurt me this badly? I ran my fingers through my hair and just as I grabbed a vase, throwing it to t

As I watched her leave, it felt like my heart was sinking, and even though twice, she stopped, she didn’t turn, and for some reason, I felt like she was being forced to do something she didn’t want to do. This wasn’t the Cora I knew. No matter how upset she was at me, she would have at least thanked me for saving her life and not walked away from me the way she did.From the way she’d acted, it was obvious that someone was threatening her and by the way, what was she even doing in the stream? How was she even drowning? The Cora I knew loved water and as such, she was an excellent swimmer so how was it possible that she was drowning? I didn’t trust any single soul in this pack. I needed to be watchful, they could have been planning something against Cora and I’d never forgive those bastards for it.After she was out of sight, I turned back to my wolf form as I snuck back out of the pack, but then, I didn’t go straight home. I was so tired of home. Everyone always wanted to return to th

CORA’s POV…My heart was throbbing. I was in severe pain, and just then, I heard the window creak open and I knew he’d left.I stared at the food on the table in the closet as I placed my hand to my chest. Why didn’t I just trust him earlier? Why didn’t I just listen to what he had to say then? Why didn’t I just recall that Layla didn’t like the fact that we were together?Why didn’t I just wait one more moment for him to at least explain what happened? If I had done so, we would have never being in this situation?I sniffled as I shook my head, it was the past. There was nothing I could do about it. I had made the mistake already and I had to deal with it, but it still hurt, because no matter how hard I tried, I still loved him.Before knowing the truth, I did, and now that I knew the truth about what happened that night, I couldn’t help but long for him.As I inhaled his scent from the closet, my heart ached even more and I bowed my head, between my legs. “Selene, I was told that I
