All Chapters of Rejected Alpha Princess : Chapter 11 - Chapter 19

***Evelyn's POV***The scent of burning grain filled the air, thick and suffocating. The pack warriors had set fire to the food storage as ordered, but it didn’t feel like a victory. It felt like a loss.Smoke curled into the sky, dark against the morning light. Wolves stood around in stunned silence, watching their only food supply turn to ash. The flames crackled loudly, consuming everything.Dalton stood at the front, his expression unreadable, but I could feel the weight pressing down on him. He had just made a drastic decision—one that could either save the pack or doom it.I clenched my fists. The traitor had done this, knowing we’d have no choice but to destroy everything. They wanted to weaken us. And worst of all, they were still out there.Watching.Waiting.I turned to Dalton, my chest tight with anger. "Whoever did this won’t stop here. They’re trying to break you."Dalton’s jaw tightened, his hands clenched at his sides. "Then I’ll find them before they get the chance."H

***Evelyn's POV***I was tired of countless tolls of death. Tired of watching wolves collapse from poisoned food. Tired of burying packmates who didn’t deserve to die. Tired of the fear in their eyes every time another body was found. Tired of everyone living in fear, unsure if who was the traitor and suspecting each other.Josh had just killed a pack member who moved suspiciously, according to him. I had noticed the movement too and had followed Derek but josh was already ahead of me and before I could stop him.He killed him. I was tired of waiting. When does all this end? Dalton was trying the best he could. He was doing everything he could to find the traitor, to protect the pack, but it wasn’t enough. More wolves were dying every day, and we were no closer to stopping it.One trouble to the other, first it was the food poison. Then wolves killing themselves out of frustration. It was exhausting. There was only one person who had the answers.And he was sitting in a cell, laughing

*Evelyn's POV***Dalton carried me out from the forest and into our home, straight to his room.Not mine.His.The packhouse halls were quiet at this hour, but if anyone saw him storming through with me in his arms, they didn’t say a word. Maybe it was the tension in his shoulders, the dark storm in his eyes, or the way his grip on me was possessive yet careful at the same time.I wasn’t sure why I let him.Maybe because I was exhausted. Maybe because I knew he wasn’t going to leave me alone tonight. Or maybe—just maybe—because I wanted to be here.Dalton kicked open the door to his room and placed me down gently on his bed."Stay," he ordered, his voice low and rough.I raised a brow. "Not like I can go anywhere."His glare was sharp, but it softened as his eyes trailed down to my ankle. He crouched beside the bed, fingers brushing against my skin as he inspected the swelling."You could’ve broken something," he muttered, shaking his head. "That was reckless, Evelyn."I smirked. "Wou

Dalton’s POVThe walls felt like they were closing in. I had just let Gabriel go and that was going to cost me everything.The pack. Our safety. And Evelyn.No, I couldn't let him get away with everything, he had done so much whilst in the cell and now that he was out? Who knows what he could do next.His ally was still out here in our midst and that was the scariest thing ever. The room was warm, the candlelight flickering gently, the bed beneath me soft—but it all felt wrong.I wasn’t supposed to be here. Lying in a bed. Weak. Helpless.I should be out there. Hunting Gabriel. Tearing him apart for what he did.Instead, I was trapped. My body betrayed me, too weak to move without feeling like I’d been ripped open all over again.Evelyn was still sitting beside me, her fingers wrapped around mine, her grip firm.She hadn’t left my side.A part of me wanted to pull away again. To tell her to go, to stop looking at me with that mixture of worry and quiet strength.But another part of me
