Don't Reject Me Preparations
I had hardly seen Kaan for the entire next day since he was busy preparing another attack. My stomach churned every time I thought about what he was doing, and I felt a crush of guilt whenever I realized I wouldn't be able to do anything to stop the slaughter. Thinking about it was slowly driving me insane, and the fact that I was locked in the chamber did little to redirect my thoughts elsewhere.Fortunately, Kaan hadn't left me without company. The two women dressed in gray robes took care of my meals and made sure I didn't lose my mind while sitting in Kaan's warded rooms. As I now knew, the older one, Delmira, used to serve at Shadow Mountains Pack's castle, and the younger one, Lelah, was Delmira's niece.“We prepared your clothes for the travel and something to change while you're in the tent,” Laleh said, placing a long cream-white gown and a hooded cloak trimmed with fur on the bed.My lips twisted into a wry smile. “The clothes are beautiful, but can't I ride in pants? Wearin
Don't Reject Me Too Close
“I will not ride with you!” I mustered my best glare while my heart began to thunder at the sole thought of being so close to him for countless hours of riding.“That's not up for discussion, little one,” he said curtly, taking Than's reins from Caspian and turning him toward the main gate. “You can climb on his back on your own, or I will put you there.”Frustration within me rose. “Please, can we just—”Kaan scooped me from the ground and settled me on Than's back before I could even gasp, leaving me with no choice but to grab the pommel of the saddle and swing my leg over the horse to sit astride. He joined me a heartbeat later, quickly positioning himself behind me, so close I could feel his warmth on my back. Then he leaned forward, grabbing the reins with one hand and placing the other on my stomach. My whole body turned rigid.A soft chuckle escaped him, his breath fanning the shell of my ear. “It'd be much more comfortable if you relax and lean against me.”Relaxing was curren
Don't Reject Me Protecting Her
KAANI could feel Asena tense as her eyes locked on the new guy. I had put the fucker on the Elite Squad because he was the son of an Alpha, but seeing Asena's reaction, I realized that I might have made a mistake. It was obvious that she knew him; he would have become her Alpha if we hadn't destroyed the Eastern Valley Pack. She might have hated him solely because he had chosen to save his skin by joining us, and for a moment, I believed that was her reason to react this way. He surely was a traitorous piece of shit. Then again, so was most of this squad and the army I led…Asena's knuckles whitened as her fists continued to clench. Then my eyes turned to the fucker… The way he looked at her made me want to claw his eyes out. It became obvious that whatever was between him and Asena seemed personal, and I would have lied, saying it hadn't turned the blood in my veins into lava.“Quit staring at her, or I will make sure you die in the first upcoming battle.” If my words hadn't carried
Don't Reject Me Fighting Fears
ASENAPerhaps after three years of fighting in war, I should have gotten used to long rides in the saddle, but that wasn't the case. I had a feeling that my butt would fall off at any moment. My thighs were sore, my back stiffened, and my shoulders felt as if they were covered by stone. I was exhausted, and I could almost hear the bedroll lying in the center of the tent calling me to lie down.I used the moment when Kaan wasn't inside the tent to strip off my clothes and change into something more comfortable to sleep in than a tight bustier and a long skirt. I also wouldn't mind taking a hot shower, but for now, a basin with so-called fresh water had to suffice.I washed myself the best way I could given the circumstances, but it quickly turned out to be less problematic than finding something even seemingly appropriate to sleep in the bag packed by Delmira and Lelah…I wasn't sure how many times I cursed, pulling out another piece of see-through fabric. I wouldn't wear most of it as
Don't Reject Me Lie to Him
We were riding for more than six hours without stopping, but at least we finally managed to pass the mountains. Kaan told me that we were an hour away from reaching the Sombra Valley, where the rest of the army should gather and build the war camp. My stomach churned at that thought. Traveling alongside a few assholes was exhausting enough, and I could barely imagine staying in a place filled with more than two hundred bloodthirsty bastards who might be even more brutal than those from the Elite Squad.Our second day of travel seemed different than the first one, but I had yet to determine whether it was a good thing or not. I felt as if I had let Kaan tame me; that was what he did. I wasn't sure when I had gotten so used to his touch that it became something natural. I casually leaned into his embrace as if it were the safest place to be. And the strangest part was that I could no longer convince myself that staying with him was wrong.“So…” Kaan started when we found ourselves at a
Don't Reject Me Underestimated
I stood on the hill, watching the army of shifters build a war camp. My whole body shuddered as I realized the true power of the enemy. Compared to them, the forces of our resistance group seemed ridiculously small, and I had to find a way to tell Garren about it. I knew that at some point our group would meet this army in the battle, and when that happened, we stood no chance of survival…My hands fisted into balls. There had to be a way to defeat them. Maybe if we somehow got in contact with other resistance groups on the continent. Maybe if we joined our forces. Maybe if we attacked together...“They're almost done,” Caspian informed me as he joined me on the hill. “Kaan's tent is already set, so you can either go there or come with me and grab something to eat.”Truthfully, I wished I could just lock myself in the tent and stay away from all those hordes of bloodthirsty savages, but my stomach had a different opinion on that matter, growling at the sound of the word “eat.”Relucta
Don't Reject Me Fight
The crowd turned silent, their eyes on me. Kylar slowly dropped his hands to his sides, blinking as if he tried to establish whether I was truly there, accepting his challenge. Others surely either wondered if I got here by accident or questioned my sanity. Caspian's hand landed on my shoulder, and he turned me toward him.“Are you sure about this?” There was no mockery in his tone, just a genuine concern.My lips formed a nervous smile. “This is why you brought me here, isn't it?”He mirrored my smile and nodded. “Yes… kind of… But I thought you'd let him beat someone else first. You know, let some other dickhead make him sweat before you jump in. Or better, let him fight five other warriors before you step into the ring.”My brows rose. “But wouldn't it feel like cheating then?”He rolled his eyes. “And do you seriously believe this will be a fair fight?”I shrugged. “He can't kill me here, right? The worst-case scenario is that I will have my ass handed to me. In the best-case scen
Don't Reject Me Care About Her
KAAN“You let her fight in the ring?!” The raging storm inside me devoured my senses. My claws came out at once, and I lunged at Caspian, ramming him down and sinking my claws an inch deep into his chest.“It was her choice!” he yelled hoarsely, grabbing my wrist as he tried to withdraw the blades piercing his flesh.“You were supposed to protect her!” I bellowed, curling my other hand around his neck.“She can… protect herself!” he rasped. “She's a… hell of a warrior!”My murderous urges pushed me to sink my claws into his throat, but one thought restored all my control. I thought about her. She wouldn't want me to do it.A grim chuckle rose in my throat. I had known Caspian since forever. He was the only one I could truly trust in this army, the army of savage fuckers. Never even once had I thought of punching Caspian, no matter how badly he pissed me off, but I would have ripped him apart now, and I was willing to do it because of her.Forcing a deep breath, I released his neck and
