All Chapters of Rejected Mate: The Lycan King's claim: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

King Kai's POVAzra stood before me with his eyes glued to the floor in disappointment. He had just admitted that his intuition regarding the connection between Alpha Jackson and the trade market was indeed wrong. He confirmed that, although the spot held name 'slave market', slave trade had been repealed long ago under the law set by the kingdom's new alpha. I poured myself a glass of wine and emptied the content in one large gulp."Seems it was only a rumour after all," I said, and proceeded to pour myself another drink. Azra waited patiently for my permission to leave, but I still had a use for him. The investigation had been completed, and my stay at the Alpha Quarters was coming to an end. All I could think of were ways to convince Katherine into following me back home."I need you to deliver an anonymous message," I said to Azra, before dismissing him.Noon came fast, and the sun was sure to make its anger known to everyone and everything. The heat was almost unbearable and obje

Katherine's POVFrosty chicken was left to thaw on the kitchen counter, and I had the potatoes expressing gratitude for washing them clean. Roma and I were among those placed on kitchen duty, we were making roasted chicken and mashed potatoes. Roma had begun stuffing the chicken and I was busy peeling the clean potatoes while humming to a futuristic soundtrack playing from my phone. Roma bumped me on my shoulder to know what put me in a very good mood."You are a different person today, are you meeting with King Kai again?" She teased."Shh," I shushed and dragged her out of earshot. She knew about Kai since we had our first sex, I couldn't keep it away from her. Roma happily hopped after me as I held her by the apron she wore. She was always eager for gossip, especially when it was about Kai."Yeah, we'll be meeting tonight while everyone's out partying," I said in excitement. Roma screeched and did a little dance before asking if I was going to meet at his place again."I can't go t

King Kai’s POVMy men and I were ready to go back to the Lycan Territory, but one thing was amiss; Katherine. She had not arrived yet. I remembered giving her time we were setting out on our journey the last time we were together.“Maybe she slept in again,” I thought. I waited for her arrival, but she was nowhere to be seen after an hour of waiting. I kept convincing myself that she was in a deep sleep whenever thoughts of her bailing at the last minute came crawling into my head. I walked back to the quarters to wait a little more, and poured myself a drink while at it. An hour of waiting turned into two, then three, and I had slowly begun losing my composure. I took deep breaths that could be heard from a mile away, I was in a battle with the mixture of my emotions; anger, fear, frustration, and hope.The sound of shattering glass filled the air and I cursed; I had held the bottle too tight. I gazed at the jagged remnants; my hand still clenched in a fist. The pain from the cut lef

Jackson’s POVI stood as the Lycan King was convoyed out of sight, and headed straight to business. “Alright, gather up,” I twirled my index finger, signalling my men to regroup.“The Lycan King’s search is over, and ours is just about to begin. We know the lands better than they do. I want you to scour the earth for Katherine; search every home, search every barn, search abandoned spots. Find and bring her to me, alive,” I ordered.“Yes, Alpha,” they chorused.“Good! On your way,” I said, waving them off.I left for the court where members of my council mostly gathered with the hope to find Elm there; he needed to be taught a lesson. Moans filled the air as I walked into one of the court’s chambers; I found Elm trying hard to burst a nut with the help of a slave.“Be quick about it, will you?” My little speech startled the couple, and they soon separated.“Alpha Jackson,” said Elm, as he tried to get his pants back on, while the slave froze in fear.“Leave!” I melted the ice off the

Katherine's POV.It has been six years since I had gotten that mysterious letter and fled from Jackson and Kai to live a normal life. I settled in Clonmoth, a small town that held very little or no ties with the pack territory; I had opted to stay in the midst of humans. I stood outside the store of a gas station I worked in, my hands akimbo and called;"Trisha!""Are you calling on your little girl?" A familiar passer-by asked."Oh, yes!" I replied. "Have you seen her?""She wandered off to the playground at Stanton street. You will find her there if you hurry," he advised."Thank you," I said, and headed for the playground. I got to my destination as fast as I could, but at the pace of an average human, I never wanted to attract too much attention."Trisha!" Trisha, come here!" I called out, my voice warm and urgent. Trisha's eyes lit up when she saw me, and ran towards me giggling.'I have told you several times not to wander off on your own," I scolded.She said nothing but looked
