All Chapters of Rejected By The Alpha, Cursed By The Moon Goddess : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Rune's POV.It was late and awfully quiet in the manor that night and was a perfect time to open a book and bury myself in it.I brushed my teeth and got out of my nightrobe.“Too comfy,” I said as I hung it back up on the wardrobe.I got in a pair of my old jeans and a shirt I loosely buttoned. I looked in the mirror knowing fully well that there were other things I could do than babysit Lyra.Not that I was complaining about it.Lyra had been a good companion, even better than these guys here, but I still had no idea why Xavier had felt so attached to her.Even putting constant stops to his quest.This baffled me a great deal.And Lyra on the other hand is sweet and all addicting even.I smiled as I remembered what transpired that day at the court which reminded me, that her initiation ceremony was close and fast approaching.“I trust Lucas to have taught her all she needs to know,” I said aloud.In a brief moment, I looked at my reflection in the mirror and burst out laughing.Luca

Rune's POVWith Xavier over Lyra's lap, she chanted an ancient language that had been long lost while I stared with awe.“This is not Lyra. Who is this lady?” I thought to myself, still standing perplexed. As the ancient words were spoken, a warm, golden light began to emanate from the lips of Lyra, filling the air with a bright, warm vibrant energy.The light began to grow in intensity, swirling around Xavier as it enveloped him in a radiant aura. I could feel sparks as the surrounding air became charged with an electric tension as if the very fabric of reality was being manipulated.“Oh my days,” I gasped from where I stood, Xavier was stirring.Lyra placed one of her palms on Xavier's head, his body was being infused with a gentle, pulsing warmth.It started at the crown of his head, spreading down through his torso, arms, and legs, filling him with a sense of relaxation and release. I could see the muscles, tense and knotted from pain and stress, begin to unwind, letting go of

Xavier's povI still found myself struggling to hold on to my wolf, Ozed. He was all I had left and all I needed.He warned me, but I didn't listen. It was late as we both kept each other from falling from the edge into the dark abyss.The silver was biting deep inside me, and threatening to cut our bonds. The wolfbane cutting deep into my skin was torture.I wanted to let go, I wanted to be free, I wanted to have rest.Curses do not follow one to the land of the dead, do they?I had clung so long for my dear life. I was slowly letting Ozed go. Ozed has done nothing to go through this pain.I had no choice but to spare him. I let go, he was free now, from me, from my rage, my curse, and the consequences of my actions.I fell deeply into the thick and still darkness.When all hope was lost, I felt life and saw reasons to live for it.Lyra. As I heard those mysterious words, I felt its magic wash over me, I felt a sudden surge of energy coursing through my body. The air seemed to vib

Lyra's POVOur tongues explore hidden books in our lives and mouths.His weight pressed down on me.As I leaned down, my lips brushed against his till he finally let go, surrendering to the passion that burned between us. His tongue brushed over my ears, leaving me gasping for air and I felt a rush of pleasure and pain, knowing that I was his even though it was torture at the same time, for all eternity.He wrapped his arms around me, holding me close as he rolled us over, his body pressing mine into the bed. I felt his heart beating against mine, our pulses racing in sync.“Ughh” I moaned.As I lay under him, I couldn't help but feel a sense of wonder at the sheer power and beauty of the man who held me in his arms. His eyes gleamed in the moonlight, a piercing yellow that seemed to see right through to my soul.His strong, muscular arms wrapped around me, pulling me close to his chest, and I felt the warmth of his body seep into mine. His scent, a wild and earthy mix of forest a

Lyra's POVI felt stupid for a second after that, there was no one here nor was there any reaction after I called out to Rune.I turned and made to leave.A quick spark at the corner of my room made me jerk as a reaction to it. Rune manifested right where the spark had occurred and was looking drained.I was pissed at first at how he appeared but I did know what he was good at.If he found no proof of his innocence he'd have to face serious consequences. One of which was him being kicked out of the pack or even worse.I could not imagine him going through the same fate I went through as a lone wolf.Even with his magic to protect him, he was still vulnerable not to mention the toll that would take on him.I went to him and impulsively hugged him. I was teary myself.“This will be okay, you'll be fine. We'll figure a way around this,” I said assuredly to him.He just squeezed tighter and we remained that way for about a minute.He broke off the hug and stared at me, his eyes watery.“
