All Chapters of The Alpha's Rejected Daughter: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

*Laura’s POV*Their loud noises woke me up.It always did. I glanced at the time and noticed it was already late. It was way past six already."Laura! Dinner's ready!" Mom called from downstairs. Of course dinner would be ready, you food mongers! I didn't exactly want to eat; moreover I had already lost my appetite a long time ago, but I made my way down the stairs anyways.The smell of pancakes and brownies wafted through the air, and the dining table looked like a feast was about to take place. Wait, when exactly did she get home to prepare all this?"Thank goodness!" Annabel exclaimed sarcastically as I made my way into the space that served as both the kitchen and dining area. Mom was taking out the brownies so I decided to help."Thank you." she said breathlessly and I could only nod. "Laura…" Mom called softly, making me look up in shock. Shocked that she'll ever talk to me using that tone of voice because she never did. She never really did anything, she never even spoke to me!

*Laura’s POV*"We're here." Someone said from beside me. It was that other Giant whom I almost thought was the one to marry Annabel- Or me...Before I could even blink, the car door had been thrown open and the Giant one was already outside. How he could flee from the car with such speed was way beyond me. They could be hybrids!"Come down." someone said from outside the car but I couldn't move. I couldn't bring myself to. I could only stare at them in pure horror and wonder what would become of me if I did."Come down!" Another gruff voice commanded fiercely. Pushing my thoughts to the back of my mind, I picked up my wobbly legs and got out of the car as fast as I could."Good." Giant one said, "Come this way." he stated simply, and for the first time since my first encounter with him, I noticed he had a distinct accent- he's probably half Irish.Looking towards the direction he was pointing at, I saw a large glass mansion, Glass! Or maybe it was made from a material that looked like

Laura's POV I gasped for air as my head burst through the surface of the water, but my lungs refused to cooperate. They didn't know how to function without the comforting embrace of oxygen - which, in my current position, was not readily available. I had never learnt to swim before, unlike Annabelle. My arms flailed helplessly in the water as my head once again sunk below the surface. I tried to calm my racing heart, to control the desperation building inside me, but it was all for naught. My mind was quickly becoming consumed by the thought that this might be it, that I might die here in the pool on this otherwise unremarkable day. Killed by someone I don't even know, in a place I don't even want to be. It all happened so quickly. One moment I was walking out with a beautiful dress, something I couldn't brag of in a very long time, next I'm making bubbles with water due to water running in through my nose. I opened my mouth several times to call for help, but water filled my mout

Chris's POVAs I walked inside the hallway, I scanned the area for any familiar faces. People from different packs had come to the house for the annual kingdom race. But then, my eyes landed on Laura, who was the new girl Xander brought to the house. I had never really paid much attention to her before, but something about her caught my eye this time. She was walking down the stairs, looking radiant in her beautiful dress that exposed her curves. It felt like the world had stopped for a moment, and everything seemed to be in slow motion.I hesitated for a while, not wanting to make a fool of myself in front of her, but then I heard a splash followed by a shriek of panic. My head whipped around, and I saw Laura was thrashing about in the deep end of the pool. She was pushed into the pool by Clara and gone straight to the bottom, and now she was struggling to stay afloat. Without thinking, I took off running towards the pool and jumped in.The water was cold, and it took me a few second

Laura's POVI took a deep breath, settling into the soft cushions of the armchair at Xander's room.. I was drenched in distress, I was feeling sick and I wasn't feeling this way since the race, but it felt like something I did is coming together to hurt me.I recounted the day of the kingdom race, of how I'd felt the weight of my limbs as I almost lost my life, grateful for Chris to have jumped into the pool after evil girl sent me unwillingly diving into pool. I'd pushed myself to the brink of my endurance, muscles aching and cramping, but somehow still drowning in the water before Chris grabbed me.The memory of this incident will forever be etched into head and pools will always give me PTSD.."I recounted how, finally, I'd reached my room after the whole in pool and pool side incident and I was so tired and drenched because of the drowning and my cramps. I wasn't strong enough to go for the race, but I was scared if I disappointed you, you'll be angry and do more bad things to me.
