All Chapters of The Rejected Lone Wolf: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

BLOOM’S POVThe moment Steph, Kelvin, and Caleb saw me, they each shook their heads at Ray who stopped talking immediately, and clenched his hands in a fist, and turned around to face me.So as not to not make things awkward, I didn’t give any indication that I had heard them, but smiled in greeting and said hi. I gave a hug to Steph and got a belly rub in return, then a side hug for the rest of the men because I wasn’t comfortable fully hugging them. “Thanks for waiting for me. I took a little time because I couldn’t decide what to wear,” I said to Ray, and his eyes scanned my clothes.“I think you did well with that.” I blushed at the appreciation in his voice. “You look really good,” Steph said. “Tell me, what did you do with that horrible turtleneck?” An awkward silence followed after Steph’s question. “I mean,” she laughed nervously, “where did you find those leggings? They’re to die for.” “‘They’re to die for.’” I laughed when Caleb started to mimic her. “In my wardrobe,”

BLOOM’S POV“I was defending you, but let’s put that aside. Are we throwing blame now? Then let’s talk about what you were doing there in the first place. Ray and Rich said you were expressly told not to come near that area, and to stay in your fucking room, so tell me. Defend yourself. Let’s hear your excuse.” Grey had a fierce look on his face and I took a step backward. He didn’t notice this as he was too blind with anger to realize that he was scaring me. “I don’t have to explain myself to you, Grey. Remember, you said I shouldn’t cross your path?” He scoffed. “So you avoided me and walked right into danger. I had to kill someone now.” I shrugged. “That’s on you. He attacked you because you pummeled him into the ground.” “Look, I don’t want to argue,” he began, and I chuckled. “Of course, you don’t because you’re not winning the argument. Look, I just want to lie down. Seeing all that blood made me queasy.” Then I started to leave, but he grabbed my wrist hard. “Where are y

BLOOM’S POVI faced him and growled, feeling my wolf coming to the surface. “And you, if you accuse me of anything dirty or immoral again, I will slap you so hard, my wrist will break. Not only that, but, you’ll have to wear a cast on your neck from how hard it will turn. Do you understand?”Maybe it was my words, or the fact that I wasn’t my usual meek self, but seeing the shock on his face was so satisfying. “You accuse me every day of immoral things, calling Ray my lover, telling me to go and spread my legs for him, telling me to never show myself in front of you and all that nonsense. I find it disgusting that you’d think of me like that without even getting to know the type of woman I am.”He opened his mouth to speak, but I raised my hand and shut him up.“You don’t get to say a word until I’m done talking. You came here to run your mouth, so I’m sure you know everything about me. I know your pride and ego will not let you rest until you’ve investigated me and found out even th

GREY’S POVSomething was wrong. Something was wrong, but I couldn’t put a finger on what. I wasn’t sure what it was until a guard made a mistake, and instead of chewing him out like I usually would do, I let him go. Then I realized it was because I slept better. Normally I didn’t sleep well, and that made me antsy and irritated throughout the whole day. I’d scream at people and make them wish the ground would open up and swallow them, but now I just let it go and continued with my day. I went to meet Tina. “Have you been adding a new medication to my meals to help me sleep better?” There was a smile on her face, but she said she hadn’t. So what was it? I pushed it to the back of my mind, but secretly, I was happy that I could sleep better now, and although the nightmares came, they didn’t stay for long. After a minute or two, they were gone, unlike before when they kept me away until the sun came up. Then we got attacked and my mate proved to me that she could’ve killed me if sh

GREY’S POVI stood at my office window and watched as Kate alighted the car with Grey. Normally, I would have done nothing and let my brother fight his battles himself as I had always done, but Bloom wanted to do something, and I was now realizing that there was no way I could say no to her. Not when she looked like it was her duty to save others, which she did with me. She saved me and I knew now that she was too good for me. I walked to my desk and opened the drawer to reveal a pretty necklace box. The more I watched her, the more I wanted to shower her with gifts and adorn her with the finest things. She deserved it. For bringing me out of the pit, she really did, so if solving the problem between my brother and his mate made her happy, I would do it. I liked it when she looked at me with eyes that called her hero. I came out of my office with the intention of finding either my brother or his mate and having a talk with them, when I saw my brother going downstairs. “Richmond,” I
