Rejected by the Alpha, Claimed by the King

The new intern, an Omega in our pack, mixed up a patient’s medical history, which led to a severe allergic reaction. As her supervisor and a Delta warrior in the Red Pack, I had to take responsibility. I never expected Sam Burke, the Beta of the Blue Pack and my mate, to suspend me because of it. "Lucia, what gives you the right to feel wronged? Her mistake is your responsibility!" he said sharply, his alpha tone cutting through the air like a command. "Apologize to the patient’s family and take the next week off." With that, he casually put his arm around the intern’s shoulders and walked away, leaving me to deal with the fallout on my own. The weight of his words pressed down on me, and I felt my wolf whimper in the back of my mind, sensing the betrayal. That evening, I stumbled across Sam’s Instagram post: a lavish necklace with the caption, "Comforting a hurt little one tonight." I thought it was a gesture meant for me, until I received a message saying he wouldn’t be coming home. In that instant, all my love and trust shattered. This time, I’m really done with you, Sam.

Chapter 2

Our mothers, both proud Deltas of the Red Pack, were inseparable, so Sam Burke and I had known each other since we were pups. From as early as I can remember, I was always trailing behind him, calling him "big brother" nonstop. Sam, despite his reserved nature and quiet demeanor around others, always had a soft smile for me. Even as the Beta of the Blue Pack, he never carried that commanding alpha tone with me—his voice was always gentle.

At some point, the tender feelings of a young she-wolf began to take root and grow within me, like wild vines spiraling out of control. But this love never found its voice. During high school, my family had to relocate to another territory due to pack reassignments, taking me far away. When we met again, it was at a pack gathering where Sam stood tall, his muscular frame towering over the crowd as he delivered a speech as the honor student. All those feelings I had buried deep inside rushed back, stronger than ever.

Finally unable to hold back any longer, I confessed my love to him. Sam, his sharp jawline softened by the faintest hint of surprise, looked at me for a moment before ruffling my hair and simply saying, "Okay."

After we got together, we never celebrated the Moon Festivals or any other pack traditions. He always insisted that such things were trivial and that we should focus on our duties as warriors. I cried and argued, but all I got in return was his calm suggestion to end things. From then on, I didn’t dare ask for anything more.

I often told myself that Sam, as the Beta, was just practical, focused on his responsibilities to the Blue Pack, and oblivious to such matters. Besides, there were no other she-wolves around him, so I figured I should be okay with that.

Now I understand that it wasn’t ignorance on his part—it was me who didn’t measure up. Clutching my phone, I sat in my room in the Red Pack’s communal den, completely drained. For three days straight, I hadn’t received a single mind link or message from Sam.

What was I hoping for? I couldn’t help but wonder.

The sound of a WhatsApp notification jolted me from my thoughts. I fumbled to unlock my phone, fearing I was already too late. I was so anxious that I failed the fingerprint scan several times. When the screen finally lit up, it showed only a photo.

I stared at the image of two tightly clasped hands. The sparkling ring didn’t quite hide the red mole on Sam’s ring finger. My wolf let out a low whimper in the back of my mind, a sound I barely registered as I bit my lower lip so hard that I tasted blood.

A cold despair settled deeper in my heart. I slowly typed "Let’s end this," hit send, and then blocked Sam. In the werewolf world, where mate bonds were sacred and breakups carried the weight of a severed soul tie, this felt final.

Once it was done, I realized I was trembling uncontrollably. It’s okay, I told myself. This is where it ends. The bond between us, fragile as it was, had been broken. And though the pain of it felt like fire in my chest, I knew I had to move forward. For myself. For my pack.

A thousand crystal prisms fractured the golden light of the Watkins mansion ballroom, casting a warm, celestial glow over my eighteenth birthday. To the elite of the city mingling around me, this was merely the societal debut of the beloved Watkins princess. To me, it was a miracle of flesh and bone. Every breath of jasmine-scented air, every clink of champagne flutes, was a victory against the dark. From across the room, my mother caught my eye. She offered a soft, knowing smile that carried the ancient, nurturing weight of the Pawnshop Proprietress she once was. Beside her, my father—the Judge who had pulled my shattered soul from the eighteen levels of hell—nodded, his gaze fierce and protective. For a fleeting second, the opulent ballroom faded, and I felt the phantom heat of purgatory licking at my ankles. My thumb moved instinctively, rubbing the small, raised white scar on my left wrist. Two hundred years of waiting leaves a mark the soul refuses to let the flesh forget.

Alpha's Affair, Luna's Wrath

I tapped my pencil against the edge of my sketchpad, staring at the half-finished design for the ceremonial necklace I planned to surprise Marcus with for our fifth anniversary. The silver and moonstone piece would symbolize our enduring bond—five perfect years as Alpha and Luna of the Silverstone Pack. "What do you think, Lyra?" I whispered to my wolf, who purred contentedly in my mind. *Beautiful, like all your creations, Victoria.* My inner wolf had always been my greatest supporter, even before Marcus. I smiled, setting down my pencil and stretching my arms above my head. The afternoon sun streamed through the windows of our shared study, casting a warm glow over the polished oak desk. Marcus had left his tablet behind this morning in his rush to handle what he'd called an "urgent pack matter." I reached for it, thinking I could review some of the anniversary celebration plans we'd been discussing. We'd granted each other access to our devices years ago—a symbol of trust between mates. The screen lit up at my touch, revealing a messaging app I rarely used. A notification blinked insistently in the corner—from Amber Rodriguez, our new pack coordinator.

His Defiant And Unwanted Wolfless Mate

I was a wolfless Omega who married the most powerful Alpha, but I was slowly dying of Bond-Rejection Sickness because my fated mate despised me. Instead of caring about my failing health, Dallas flaunted his mistress and treated my agony as a pathetic tantrum. When I handed him a sacred rejection letter just to save my own life, he ruthlessly shredded it and used his Alpha Command to force me to stay. He locked me in his suite, watched me violently throw up from the sickness, and threatened to cut off my grandfather's life-saving medical funds if I didn't play the perfect Luna for his public image. To him and his Pack, I was just a useless burden, a piece of property they could abuse and control at will. I couldn't understand why I had to suffer and die for a man who didn't even know his entire empire was built on the secret defense algorithms I had written. Why should my absolute loyalty be repaid with such suffocating cruelty? "I, Gemma Hart, reject you, Dallas Blackwood, as my mate." I slammed a new rejection document right onto his table in front of his smug mistress. Before his furious roar could even echo through the restaurant, I legally revoked the patents to my algorithms, completely paralyzing his Pack's security grid, and walked away. Let the arrogant Alpha see what happens when his property declares war.

Omega's Second Chance

The late afternoon sun streamed through the administration office windows, casting long shadows across the scattered enrollment forms that covered my desk. I tucked a strand of hair behind my ear and reached for another stack of papers, the familiar routine of organizing pack documents usually bringing me a sense of purpose. As the pack's Omega, these administrative tasks were among the few responsibilities that made me feel useful, even if they were considered beneath the notice of higher-ranking wolves. My fingers moved methodically through the forms for the upcoming pup training season, checking names against birth records and ensuring each young wolf was properly registered. The work was meticulous, requiring attention to detail that most pack members found tedious. But I found comfort in the order, in the neat columns and careful documentation that made sense of our pack's future. That's when I saw it. Gracie Hoffman's enrollment form lay innocuously among the others, her small photo clipped to the corner showing a sweet face with curious gray eyes. But it wasn't her picture that made my hands freeze mid-motion. It was the line marked 'Father' in neat, official script: Callum King.

Rejected by My Fated Alpha

After enduring five tumultuous years with Nikolas Adams, the Beta of our pack, because of Yara Thomas, the manipulative Gamma, I was utterly worn out. I decided to be with my childhood friend, Kashton Diaz, the Alpha who had always been by my side. We spent seven years together, and everyone believed Kashton adored me, being attentive to every detail in our lives. But right after we submitted our mate bond declaration to the pack council, I stumbled upon a stack of letters. They were from Kashton to Yara. The letters expressed Kashton’s deep love for Yara. At the end of one letter, he wrote: “For Yara’s happiness, I’m willing to sacrifice and spend my life with someone I don’t love, as long as she’s happy.” It turned out the happiness I thought I had was just a beautifully crafted lie, a trap designed just for me. I didn’t cry or create a scene. Instead, I submitted my application to join a research institute in the Pacific Northwest, focused on improving food resources for our pack. --- After picking up the mate bond severance papers from Marcus Watkins, a Delta in our pack, I headed to the payphone on the street corner.
