All Chapters of ALPHA'S REJECTED BRIDE: HIDING HIS BABY: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

ROSALINE’S POV:I never thought I would be so happy to hear that voice again. I have never felt so much relief before in my life. Honestly, I could cry right about now. I felt my chains come undone, and I was lifted off the guillotine. I was wrapped in a familiar pair of muscular arms, and Damien’s heavenly scent filled my nostrils. I could not help but bury my face into his chest and the tears that spilt out of my eyes."What is the meaning of this insult, Damien? Have you completely lost your mind? You are getting in the way of justice!" The alpha king snapped, and I could hear him getting nearer and nearer. Damien’s arms tightened around me protectively."Justice? This is anything but justice! You were just about to take the life of an innocent woman!" Damien roared; his voice echoed in the wind, and the people began to whisper among themselves."Innocent? All arrows point to her as the culprit. You can’t make such judgments based on your feelings, my boy." The alpha shot back, a

DAMIEN’S POV: Few hours earlier…."Just who the fuck do you think you are?"I rolled my eyes at my father’s words before placing my chin on my fist. My elbow was perched on the table as I watched my old man pace back and forth. We were both in his room with my mother; he wanted to have this meeting where he knew absolutely no one could hear us or interrupt us.I just wanted this to be over so I could get back to Maya. I really was not comfortable leaving her alone for too long. Not because I was scared something would happen to her while I was away, just because I physically could not be away from her for too long.Even if I did not mean to, I always found my feet moving to wherever she was. My body called out to her, and my wolf did as well. It was a weird connection I could not explain, and I did not want to."Are you even listening to me?" My father’s enraged voice interrupted my blissful thoughts, and I wanted to groan. How annoying could this man be?"Huh?" I said, I honestly

ROSALINE’S POV:My eyes fluttered open softly as a small yawn escaped my lips. I am greeted with the precious sight of Damien’s sleeping face. His eyelashes were quite long, and I could not help but admire how peaceful he looked when sleeping. All his features were relaxed; there was not a single crease on them, and if I were to be honest, he resembled an angel when asleep.I could feel my wolf purr at the sight of our mate; actually, she was doing more than purring. She was practically jumping around with excitement. It had been years since I felt like this since I felt genuinely at peace.My fingers seemed to have gotten a mind of their own as they hovered above his eyelashes. I let the gentle hairs caress the tips of his fingers before moving down to the bridge of his nose. It was when I got to his lips that I released a gentle gasp as a pair of arms snaked around my waist and pulled me closer.Our bodies were pressed together now, and our faces were barely an inch from each othe

DAMIEN’S POV: I hated sulking. But I could not help it; this ache in my chest would not leave, and Kiara was seriously not helping matters. She clung to my arm as we made our way back into the palace."Oh my God, that was so much fun! You were all talking but had nothing to show for it! I mean, yeah, you were pretty good, but I told you I was better." She boasted as we climbed up the stairs. I just wished she would shut up, or better yet, leave me alone. When she sees that I do not attempt to comment, she pauses to look at my face. I hated the way she pouted her lips, and I did not know what gave her the audacity to pinch my cheek."Oh, do not be so down. You know there is no way you would do laundry, but you know…" She trailed her finger down to my chin before stopping at my chest. "It is our night together; maybe we can have some more fun."I let her words register in my head. Now that I think about it, I have not been able to sleep with any of these girls except Maya. Whenever

ROSALINE'S POV: Damien's arms held me tightly as he swam both of us around the water with ease. His smile was cheeky as his dark hair plastered to his face, covering the majority of his face.His words registered in my head, and I shot a glare at him. "Like hell, I would ever go swimming with you." He raised one of his eyebrows slowly before shrugging nonchalantly. "Suit yourself."His arms disappeared from my waist, and my head was submerged in the water, sending a dreadful panic through my heart. My hands shot out and I grabbed him by the shirt, and he pulled me up. His laughter mixed with my pants were the only things I could hear as my head was brought to the surface."Please just get me out of this thing!" I screamed, which only made him laugh more."How can a grown woman like you not know how to swim?" "I never learned, okay? Now can we please have this conversation out of the water?" I asked him, but he didn't seem to dig the idea.He began to pull away from me, but a shriek
