Rejected by the Alpha Who Loved Another Chapter 8
The judgment came quickly.The council reviewed Serena’s wolfsbane purchases, the rogue healer’s testimony, and Damon’s killing of her. The Elders stripped Damon of his Alpha title and exiled him to the northern mines for ten years.The old Alpha temporarily took over Silver Ridge. Elias focused on protecting the Blackwood business for me.On the day Damon was taken away, he didn’t defend himself.He wore a gray prisoner’s uniform, and silver cuffs locked his wrists. When the escort passed the sacred forest cemetery, he suddenly asked to stop. The guards didn’t want to allow it, but the old Alpha finally nodded.Damon knelt in front of my tombstone and pressed his forehead to the cold stone. “Aria, I was wrong.”“I know you won’t forgive me,” he said in a hoarse voice. “But if there’s another life, I still want to find you. I’ll believe you the first time. I’ll protect you before anyone has to tell me. I’ll repay everything I owe.”I shook my head softly.No, Damon. Don’t look for me i

When Elias returned to his apartment, Damon was waiting by the door.This time, Damon looked truly broken. His suit was wrinkled, his eyes were bloodshot, and the Alpha pride that once held his shoulders straight seemed to have been ripped out overnight.When he saw Elias, the first thing he said was, “They admitted it.”Damon’s voice was low. “My parents really begged Aria to keep me in Silver Ridge. She never forced anyone.”Elias didn’t comfort him. “And?”Damon raised his eyes. His voice trembled. “Why didn’t she tell me? Just once.”“She told you many times that she didn’t force you.” Elias’s voice was ice. “You didn’t believe her.”Damon stood pinned by that sentence.Elias threw the evidence file into his arms. “Then take a look at the woman you couldn’t wait to marry.”Damon opened it slowly. Photos, transfer records, the rogue healer’s report, and the audio device fell into his view. His hands began to shake. By the time the recording reached the sentence about me dying after

Elias drove like a storm. When we arrived at the sacred forest cemetery, my grave had been half opened. Wet earth lay in a pile beside the stone, and Damon and Serena stood near it.Mud covered Damon’s hands. His face looked bloodless. Serena stood behind him with a prepared ash casket in her arms, and satisfaction hid in the corners of her eyes.Elias rushed forward and shoved Damon away. “What are you doing?”Damon didn’t answer. Serena spoke first in a soft, reasonable voice.“Elias, don’t get upset. Damon only wants to move Aria’s ashes to the Moon Shrine. He thinks it’s compensation. He said she hated sleeping alone, didn’t he?”Elias stared at Damon in disbelief. “Is this your idea?”Damon pressed his lips together. “She shouldn’t be here alone.”“When she was alive, you thought she was an eyesore. Now that she’s dead, you remember she hated being alone?” Elias’s gaze sharpened. “Damon, do you want to compensate her, or did Serena talk you into putting the Blackwood wolf seal bac

After the funeral, my parents asked Elias to stay.My father placed a blackwood wolf seal in his palm. “Aria is gone. We don’t have the heart to manage the family business now. Blackwood Holdings and the border trade routes will be under your care for the time being.”Elias looked startled. “I can’t. I’m only a Beta. I’ve never managed anything this large.”My mother looked at him with red eyes. “You were the person Aria trusted most. She trusted you, so we trust you.”My father nodded. “Management doesn’t mean doing everything yourself. It means guarding the direction and keeping her legacy out of the wrong hands.”Elias looked at my tombstone for a long time. Then he closed his fingers around the wolf seal. “All right. I’ll do it.”I stood beside him and felt the first quiet comfort since my death. Elias never showed off, but he was steadier than anyone. I trusted him with everything I left behind.That night, Elias sent my parents back to the Blackwood estate and then bought a full

Damon froze, then gave a cold laugh. “Aria’s funeral? Did she ask you to dress like this? Where is she? Tell her this is a cheap way to ruin my ceremony.”Elias looked at him like he was a stranger. “She can’t come.”“How can she not come?” Damon took out his phone. “I’ll call her right now.”He called again and again. Each call ended unanswered. His face grew worse, and his thumb hovered over my name even after the line went dead.Serena held his arm. “Damon, the ceremony is starting. Aria is good at playing the victim. Don’t let her pull your strings again.”Damon’s fingers tightened around the phone. The priest of the ceremony raised his voice.“Let the future Luna step forward and receive the Alpha’s vow.”Serena lifted her skirt and prepared to walk up the platform. Elias turned to leave.“Stop.” Damon stared at Elias’s back. “I’m going with you.”The hall went silent. Serena’s face went white. “Damon, what do you mean? Our vows—”“I’m only confirming whether she’s really dead.” D

A few minutes after we left the council hall, the wolfsbane surged from my heart toward my throat. I covered my mouth and coughed dark blood onto the snow.Elias’s voice sounded far away. “Aria? Aria, stay with me.”I wanted to tell him not to cry, but I couldn’t lift my hand. The last thing I saw was a faint moon above the clouds, like the Moon Goddess had finally come for me.When I opened my eyes again, Elias was on his knees on the healing center floor, crying so hard his shoulders shook.I wanted to touch his shoulder. My hand passed through him. I froze, then slowly turned around and saw my own body lying on the bed.So I was dead.My soul didn’t leave right away. Some unfinished obsession tied me here, and I could only follow Elias as he arranged my funeral.Elias looked as if the color had been drained from him overnight. In a few days, he lost visible weight, and the shadows under his eyes stayed.Three days before the funeral, he sat beside my ashes with a ruined voice. “Aria
