All Chapters of The Rejected Luna’s Rise : Chapter 261 - Chapter 270

Ariana It’s been a week since the day I first kissed Knox, and when I tell you, life has been good?? I really mean it.We’ve just been living in our own little bubble, having fun and spending our time together. We’ve been taking things slow, trying to learn everything about each other, one day at a time.The baby steps we were taking were cute, though, and really meant everything to me.I felt like a teenage girl with a crush, falling in love all over again. With Knox, it was easy, different, and good.I never had to second-guess anything, and he treated me like I was the only woman in his world. Knox was vulnerable with me; he told me everything about his childhood, his fears, his likes, and his dislikes.He also told me about his strengths and weaknesses. Honestly, he was just like an open book to me… always available for me to read.And it wouldn’t be wrong for me to say I knew a lot about that dangerously hot Alpha. I also knew his kryptonites, so if I ever wanted to badly hurt h

Ariana It’s been three days since Knox came to me and proposed a merger between ShadowCreek and MoonStone.Both packs will retain their originality but be merged into a single territory, more like a true merger than an absorption. I didn’t know what to think about it, so I asked him to let me sit with the thoughts for some days. I’ve spoken to my family about it and also some of the returning pack members. No one seems to have an issue, and in fact, they think it was a really good idea.We were both Alphas now and mates.It was obvious we were going to end up together, so why not merge our packs and rule together in harmony? The bathroom door pushed open, jolting me out of my thoughts and Knox walked in, droplets of water dripping down his body.He looked divine like this, and I was ready to…“You’re drooling, baby, mouth open and all like you’re ready to eat me up.” He laughed, and I immediately closed my mouth.Damn, that was embarrassing.“So thirsty.” He teased me, and I frown

ArianaI woke up this morning feeling all types of butterflies in my stomach because today was my WEDDING!!!YassssssIt was my freaking wedding/mating ceremony. I mean, I was getting married for the second time now, but it didn’t even feel like this was an experience I had gone through before.It felt new…Fresh, beautiful, and I couldn’t help but be giddy about the whole thing. I loved this man so much, and I just couldn’t wait to be his wife.Last night, I slept thinking I would wake up nervous this morning, but instead I’ve been smiling since I woke up because if there was any decision I was a hundred percent sure of in this life…It was this one. It also helps that for the first time in a very long time, there was no fear, pain, or uncertainty sitting in my chest, just pure happiness.I mean, who would have thought my life would turn out this way? The Ariana of barely a year ago wouldn’t believe she had rebuilt MoonStone, become an Alpha, and found love in its purest form, but h

Ariana Knox and I couldn’t wait for the ceremony to be over, and as soon as it was, we were running back to our rooms. I had told him I wanted our first time to be after our mating ceremony, and him marking me like that in front of everyone??Yeah…It heightened everything I was feeling and made me ten times hornier. The door shut behind us, and the rest of the world disappeared. Knox’s hands were already on me, possessive and trembling with the same need burning under my skin.He backed me against the wall, kissing me like he’d die if he stopped. “God, Ariana,” he rasped against my mouth, forehead pressed to mine. “You’re my wife now, so tell me you’re ready for this. All of me.”“I’ve been ready,” I whispered, tugging at his shirt buttons. “No holding back tonight, Knox. I want my husband, and I want every single inch of you.”He groaned and spun me around, fingers slow on my zipper even though I could feel how hard he was against my ass. The wedding dress slid down my body like

ArianaI never understood why so many wolves loved running so much, but spending the last few weeks with Knox has made me understand why. Running together was like our favorite new activity now and it always brought me a sense of peace.Because the second my paws touched the forest floor, something inside me just simply let go.The weight of being the Primordial Wolf Queen, the responsibility that came with being the Alpha of MoonStone, the endless meetings and expectations…All of it disappeared beneath the rhythm of my heartbeat. When running together with my husband, I was just simply me…Free.The wind rushed through my white fur as I shot between towering pines, laughing through our bond while my wolf practically sang inside my head.“Faster!” He yelled. “I’m trying!” I laughed.Ahead of me, Knox’s wolf glanced over his shoulder. He was magnificent, enormous, and ancient-looking. His dark grey coat almost blended into the shadows, except for the faint silver markings running a
