All Chapters of Rejected Omega: The Rise of Jemima: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Jemima’s POVI really wanted to go with Adrian to see my stepmother who seemed to be involved in the tangled web of mysteries that surrounded me. But it was a wise decision for me to stay behind. Abigail despised me and wouldn't want to give me anything I desperately needed, which in this case, were answers to my questions.Why was I so different from the others? And why did it seem as though my life was being targeted?Perhaps, if my mother hadn't cruelly abandoned me, I wouldn't have been as confused about my abilities and why I had them.Her abandonment was something I was never going to forgive. Because of her decision, I had suffered at the hands of my stepmother and her daughter. The most painful part of it all was that my father had done nothing to protect me.“Jeez, stop glaring at the forest already or you are going to set it ablaze.”Piper’s voice pierced through my thoughts, abruptly pulling me back to the present. I regarded her friendly expression for a moment. She was

Jemima’s POVA shriek of surprise escaped my lips as he carelessly flung me over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes.I was well aware of where his palm rested – right on my butt. “Adrian, this is not how you sweep a lady off her feet, in case that’s what you are trying to do here,” I said. He chuckled. “You should have known by now, dear mate, that I am not a gentleman. Don't worry, you are going to get used to it with time.”I snorted and didn't speak to him again until we reached my bedroom. The short dress I was wearing, rode up dangerously higher as he gently lowered me to the bed.His gaze latched on to my exposed thighs as he straightened just before I got the chance to adjust my dress. “Don’t,” he murmured, stilling the motion of my fingers. “You do not have to cover up when we are together.”My fingers tightened on the hem of my dress as I fought to control the sudden wave of anger that washed over me. “Jem, are you alright?” he queried. His tone was laced with concern.

Jemima’s POVThe way he said my government-issued name was enough to make me shudder with desire.I was well aware of my nipples hardening and poking through the thin material of my shirt which I held to my chest even as I jutted my chin stubbornly at him. It was as though there was a force pushing me to vex him as much as I could. A force I couldn't resist.“You have no right to tell me what or what not to say, Adrian Blackthorn. You can't control me like the rest of your Pack members.”A muscle in his jaw clenched at my provocation and then his gaze lowered to my chest, eyes lighting up with fascination at the way my hard nipples were threatening to poke through my shirt. My mouth went dry as his gaze darkened with a combination of fierce hunger and anger. “I guess I should head back to the Pack house,” Piper said, her voice barely above a whisper and turned to leave.Neither the Alpha nor I turned to acknowledge her. I found out that I couldn't barely move. The heat in my mate’s

Jemima’s POVI scoffed at his concern for my safety. It wasn't as though I was made of glass. And he knew that besides my supernatural strength as a werewolf, I also happened to have magical abilities. “Trust me, Adrian, I am very capable of taking care of myself. You saw my fighting skills during the fight with the rival Pack. There is no need for you to be afraid of me getting hurt.”His lips curled into a small smile. “If I didn't know any better I would think that you are just trying to avoid me. Because there is no need for you to be so against training with me alone.”I shifted uncomfortably in my seat. “I never said I was against it. I just didn't like the way your words implied that I was too fragile.”He snorted. “So that's the problem? Does it hurt your pride to be thought of as fragile?”“Don’t start, Adrian,” I murmured, starting to rise from my seat.“Don’t you dare move an inch,” he snapped, his voice suddenly cold. Blinking in shock at the sudden change, I planted my

Jemima’s POVTo my annoyance, Adrian wasn't on the training field when I got there. As I tried to get my breathing under control, I looked around the field, marvelling at the level of concentration everyone seemed to possess as they trained. Some pairs trained with weapons while others used their fists. My eyes scanned the sea of bodies for Garrett or Piper. They were certainly going to have an idea about their Alpha’s whereabouts.I felt a tap on my shoulder and whirled around to face a smiling Garrett. Still annoyed that he had ratted me out to his Alpha, I didn't return his smile.“Do you have any idea where Adrian is? He asked me to meet him here.”His smile didn't falter. “And a pleasant morning to you too, Jemima. How did you sleep?”“Good,” I replied curtly. “Could you please tell me where he is now?”Garrett’s expression became one of deep thoughtfulness as he stroked his chin.“I can't remember right now where he is but if you could give me a couple of minutes, I would ce
