Rejected By The Alpha, Crowned By Fate Pride Before the Storm
Maya"Which one is better, Isabella?"The two maids standing before me immediately lifted the dresses they had just taken from my wardrobe.One was a breathtaking sapphire-blue gown that shimmered like moonlight dancing across freshly fallen snow. The other was a deep emerald dress embroidered with glitterring silver vines.I folded my arms across my chest while waiting for Isabella's answer.She stepped closer, her warm brown eyes moving carefully between both gowns before a gentle smile spread across her face."They're both beautiful, Luna," she said honestly. "But... I think the blue one would suit you better."I looked at the dresses again before my gaze returned to her. A smile tugged at my lips."Excellent choice."I gave a small nod before motioning toward another pair of maids waiting behind them."Bring the jewelry."Immediately, they stepped forward, each carrying a polished

LyraKael's tone reminded me of someone patiently coaxing a frightened child through a nightmare."There you go... That's it.""Slow breaths.""You're doing well."His fingers gently massaged her knuckles.Little by little, her breathing gradually steadied, and the tension in her shoulders eased. Even the frantic movements of her hands lessened.The entire room seemed to release a collective breath.Minutes passed. Finally, her body fully relaxed. Then her eyelids fluttered.Slowly, she opened her eyes."Kael?"Her voice was barely audible."I'm here," he answered almost immediately.She blinked sluggishly."I... I feel sleepy."Her voice cracked."I don't understand... what's happening to my body."Kael gently squeezed her hand."You don't have to understand it right now." His voice remained just as soft."Don't fight the feeling. It's alright to rest."His thumb continued lightly rubbing circles over her knuckles."The sedative is helping you. Just let it, okay? Close your eyes and
Rejected By The Alpha, Crowned By Fate Alara’s Treatment
Lyra"It's... It's Lady Alara..." Talia swallowed hard. "She's... she's suffering a severe reaction!"The words had barely left her mouth when every trace of warmth vanished from Kael's face.His body stiffened instantly.For the briefest moment, complete silence settled over the training grounds. Then—He was gone."Kael!" I called after him instinctively.He didn't even look back.He broke into a sprint, running toward the pack's medical research center with a speed that left dust swirling in his wake.I stared after him for only a second before quickly gathering my senses."Talia!""Yes, Ms. Lyra!""Let's go."She nodded frantically.Together, we hurried after Kael.The path from the training grounds to the research center wasn't particularly long, but today it felt endless.My heart pounded heavily against my ribs as questions flooded my mind one after another.What kind of severe reaction? Was it because of the serum? Or had something gone terribly wrong?Neither Talia nor I spok

LyraDust swirled beneath my boots as I lunged forward, my body moving almost entirely on instinct."Again!" Kael's commanding voice rang across the field.I inhaled deeply before tightening my grip on the wooden training sword.One of the warriors charged toward me.This time, I didn't hesitate.Instead of blocking his strike head-on, I sidestepped at the last second, twisted around his back, and tapped the flat side of my wooden blade against his shoulder before he even realized I'd disappeared from his line of sight.The warrior blinked in surprise."So fast..."Before he could recover, I spun lightly on my heel and swept his legs from beneath him.He landed on the soft sand with an exaggerated groan."I surrender."Laughter erupted from the watching junior warriors. I couldn't stop the grin stretching across my face.Kael folded his arms over his broad chest as he watched me, his silver eyes gleaming with approval."Not bad."The simple praise somehow made my chest swell with prid

MayaI heard them before I even stepped into the dining hall.Light laughter.Women's giggles.The occasional clink of silverware.I lifted my chin, straightened my shoulders, and continued down the long hallway with calm, measured steps.Every servant I passed lowered their heads respectfully, though I noticed more than a few curious glances following me. Word had undoubtedly spread that I had finally left my room after isolating myself for days.Let them watch.A slow breath escaped my lips as I stepped into the dining hall.The laughter instantly became clearer.As expected, Alaric sat comfortably at the head of the long dining table. On either side of him sat his two favorite whores: Ava, the blonde with the overly sweet, fake smile, and Kendra, the brunette whose smirks always seemed to drip with mockery.The table overflowed with food and wine. It looked more like a royal banquet than a simple breakfast.The moment I appeared, every pair of eyes turned toward me.Ava was the fir

MayaI sat by the window, staring at the endless snow-covered mountains stretching beyond the walls of Snow Jade Pack.I had been staring at them for so long over the past few days that I had practically memorized every peak and every frozen ridge.They were beautiful, cold, and empty... just like I felt. At some point, I had simply stopped caring about anything. The knock on my bedroom door broke the heavy silence. I didn't answer. A moment later, the door slowly opened."My Lady..."Isabella stepped inside carefully, carrying a silver tray filled with warm food. Steam still rose from the bowl of soup, and the fresh scent of baked bread quickly filled the room."Good morning," she greeted softly. "The maids told me that you've refused to eat for the past few days. So I thought... perhaps I should bring breakfast to you myself."I didn't even bother looking in her direction."I'm not hungry. You should take it back."I expected her to leave. Instead, I heard the tray being placed gen

LyraA piercing scream yanked me out of sleep.My eyes snapped as the sound echoed through the resort walls—raw, sharp, and filled with unbearable agony.For a moment, I lay frozen in bed, my heart pounding heavily against my chest. What was going on?I jumped out of bed immediately and tied the s

Kael“Fucking asshole!”I rubbed my temple in irritation as Asher's furious voice exploded inside my head.“Will you shut up already?”The damn mutt had been yelling at me nonstop ever since I left Lyra's room.“No, I won’t shut up!” Asher barked furiously. “What the hell was that?”I shot back, “Y

LyraGrowing up, I had always been told that there was no greater love in the world than the love in a matebond. It was deeper than love, stronger than loyalty, and more powerful than anything else.But then, I had also been told about the darker side of the bond. A love this strong could become a
