Semua Bab Rejected by My Mate, Claimed by the King: Bab 11 - Bab 20

"Nonsense!" Ruth roared, her eyes flashing a dangerous, blood-red. "You are the one who killed my mate! I can smell his scent on you!"Right before my eyes, her jaw elongated. Thick, coarse brown fur burst through the collar of her shirt, and her ears stretched to sharp points. She was actually half-shifting into a werewolf!"Ruth, please... cough... you have to believe me!" I choked out, desperately trying to explain, but she didn’t give me a single second.With a vicious sneer, she raised her heavy boot and brought it crashing directly down onto my outstretched hand.Crack.The sickening sound of my own bones snapping echoed in the courtyard. A blinding, white-hot agony shot up my arm, so intense it robbed me of my breath.Vera stepped forward triumphantly, mocking me, completely unbothered by my shattered hand. "With just one word from Princess Catherine, you die here today."Catherine took two disgusted steps back, holding a perfumed handkerchief over her nose. Yet, looking at my

Kane’s pov I never expected Ren to have a new mate so quickly. And of all people… King Lyall.No. I couldn’t accept itWhat I found even more unacceptable was that he wasn't rejected by King Lyall! When I rejected him, he accepted it without a fight.The thought of Ren, who rightfully belonged to me, becoming King Lyall's mate drove me insane with jealousy.Especially at this very moment, as Ren was being held so tightly in King Lyall's arms. Looking at them, a heavy wave of regret washed over me. I actually started to regret rejecting Ren just because he was a man.I hated this feeling. If I had just accepted him, Ren would be in my arms right now. We would have spent a wonderful, passionate night together. I would have sunk my teeth deep into his neck, marked him brutally, and made him my complete mate. I knew it would have excited him greatly; he would have trembled with joy under my touch.But Ren didn't even glance at me. Not a single look. His eyes were entirely fixed on King

Ren’s POV Hearing Catherine's words, I knew I was doomed. I was about to be banished from the pack and become a rogue. No, I didn't want to be a rogue. If I stepped foot outside this pack alone, I would soon die in the wild.I threw my pride away. Ignoring the agonizing throb in my injured knee, I shuffled forward on my knees across the marble floor. "Princess Catherine, please," I begged, my voice cracking with absolute desperation. "I’ll do anything. Please, just let me stay!"Catherine crouched down, her dress pooling on the floor, her face twisted with mockery. "You pathetic bitch," she spat. "You should be thanking me. I am sparing your life at the very moment I want to kill you most!"My eyes widened in terror. She still wanted me dead. If I wasn't the Lycan King's mate, my head would already be rolling across this floor.Catherine stood up smoothly, her eyes turning cold. "Gammas. Banish him from the pack."The two massive Gammas hauled me up roughly by my arms. I thrashed

A familiar, heavy voice echoed through the darkness.I turned my head. I saw Lyall stepping out from the shadows, the shadows clinging to his broad shoulders like a cloak. To me, he looked like a god of salvation. My exhausted, depleted body suddenly found a surge of strength. Taking advantage of the brief fraction of a second Kane was distracted, I violently yanked myself free from his grip and scrambled backward through the dirt to put distance between us."Help me!" I screamed, my finger trembling as I pointed directly at Kane. I didn't give the Alpha a single second to defend himself. "Lyall, this detestable bastard had me thrown out of the pack! And then he ambushed me. He pinned me down and tried to force a kiss on me! I fought him, but he’s too strong. If you hadn't come... he would have violated me!"In reality,Kane had only forced a kiss, and he might not have had the nerve to go further. But I said it to Lyall on purpose. I knew perfectly well that only by framing it this wa

"Ren. In my presence, you will never need to kneel."The deep, rumbling voice vibrated above my head. Before I could even register the words, Lyall lifted me up from the dirt and pulled me fiercely into his arms. As my cheek pressed against his violently vibrating chest, I could clearly feel the wolf inside him roaring madly.。I realized Lyall was absolutely enraged. He turned his gaze toward Kane, who was kneeling to the side, and then to Catherine, whose face was as white as a sheet. A flash of murderous intent shot through his eyes."Alpha Kane," Lyall said. His voice was soft, barely above a whisper, but it carried a crushing, suffocating aura of pure authority. "It seems your subordinates are terrifyingly loyal to you."Kane’s body trembled violently, a flash of pure panic crossing his pale face.Lyall’s large hand came up, gently stroking the back of my head to anchor me while he delivered his sentence. "For the sake of my mate's tears, I will spare your miserable life today. But
