All Chapters of Rejected: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

When Ethan stood at the edge of the Moonlit Meadow, where his fate had once been broken, his heart beat like a native drum. The moon was low in the sky and gave the area a surreal glow. Its golden light wove through the old trees. Amelia moved closer, and her eyes sparkled like stars. "Ethan, are you really sure about this?"He didn't change his mind and just nodded. "I have to face him to end this once and for all."Amelia's hand went to his, and their fingers intertwined in a quiet show of support. Together, they moved toward the middle of the field, where the pack had gathered. It was an evening of taking stock.Gabriel stood at the other end, with his loyal pack members on either side. His eyes were filled with sadness. He had lost his alpha attitude and was now so humble it was strange.As Ethan and Gabriel looked at each other, a storm of feelings raged between them, making the air feel tense. "You came," Gabriel said with regret in his voice. "I thought that you'd never forgi

Under the pale light of the full moon, the Moonlit Meadow sparkled, giving the people standing in its center a dreamlike look. Ethan and Amelia gave each other a hot look as their breaths mixed in the cool night air. There was a lot of energy between them, like a storm that was about to break."I need to know, Amelia," Ethan said in a whisper that was barely louder than the leaves moving. "Really, who are you?"In the moonlight, the violet color of Amelia's eyes held his attention. "Ethan, if I told you, you wouldn't believe me.""If it helps me figure out what's going on between us, I'll believe anything," he said, his heart pounding in his chest.Before Amelia could say anything, a strong smell filled the air. It was a smell Ethan knew all too well. Angel Gabriel. The alpha had followed Ethan to the field because he couldn't give up on the idea that they could be friends again."Ethan, please," Gabriel begged, his voice full of sorrow.Amelia took a step back with a confused look on

Ethan's heart was beating fast as he stood at the edge of the Moonlit Meadow. The full moon's silvery light made everything around him look fascinating. He had come here to find answers to the hard decisions he had to make and to get some perspective.Amelia stood next to him, her eyes shining like the moon. He felt better when she was around, and he couldn't deny that he was getting more and more interested in her. But he couldn't stop thinking about Gabriel, his destined mate, who had turned him down in front of the pack."Ethan, are you okay?" Amelia's voice was soft and full of worry.He looked at her and locked his eyes on hers. "I have no idea, Amelia. Everything is so hard to understand."She reached out and took his hand, and the feeling of her touch sent shivers down his back. "Life is rarely simple, and especially not for people like us."Ethan nodded, but his mind was a mess of thoughts and feelings. "I wish I knew just what to do."Before Amelia could answer, they heard so

The sparkling light of the full moon lit up the Moonlit Meadow in front of them. Ethan's heart was beating fast as he stood next to Amelia, the woman who had given him both comfort and worry. Alpha Gabriel Rivers, who stood at a respectful distance, never took his eyes off the woman he used to think was his fated mate. His face was a mix of sorrow and determination."Ethan," Gabriel said, breaking the tense quiet with a shaky voice. "I know I made a big mistake. I can't live without you, though."Gabriel's refusal still hurt, so Ethan's jaw tightened. "You said I wasn't good enough," he spat out, trying to keep his anger in check.Gabriel moved closer, and his eyes seemed to beg. "I made a mistake, Ethan. I let my pride and ego get in the way. I can now see that you are better than enough. You're exactly what I've always wanted."Amelia carefully watched the two people talk, keeping her own feelings hidden behind a face of stoicism. Ethan knew that she was hiding things from him, thin

Ethan's heart was beating fast as he stood at the edge of the Moonlit Meadow. This was where he had found peace and a love he hadn't expected. The full moon lit up the night with an otherworldly light, and it cast long, spooky shadows across the clearing. He just couldn't get rid of the feeling that everything would change tonight.Amelia stood next to him, and the light from the moon could be seen in her eyes. Ethan was shocked when he found out who she really was, but he couldn't deny the connection they had. It was a link that went beyond the laws of fate, and it scared and excited him at the same time."Amelia," Ethan said in a shaky voice, "I need to know the truth. Who exactly are you?"She looked at him with a steady gaze. "I watch over the Moonlit Meadow, Ethan. A guardian of this holy place."Ethan's forehead wrinkled up in confusion. "A watchman? Why didn't you tell me before?"Amelia sighed, and her face showed that she was sorry. "No, Ethan, I couldn't. My job is to keep t
