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
Don't Reject Me Truths and Lies
ASENAI slowly lifted myself to sit and shook my head. “But that's impossible... My wolf spirit is still asleep!”Kaan raised his brows. “Are you sure about that?”Frustration coiled within me. “Of course I'm sure! Don't you think I would have used my spirit to fight that asshole if there was even a sliver of chance that it was awake?”He shrugged. “Maybe it's waking up right now because I surely saw the wolf in your eyes.”My heart began to thunder. I sucked in a shaky breath and ran my trembling fingers through my hair. “You said that my eyes were red... I don't think it is possible.”He let out a slow exhale and narrowed his eyes at me. “You told me about your father, who used to be an unranked warrior, but you never told me about your mother.”I bit the inner side of my cheek for a moment, wondering what words I should use. “I… I've never met my mother,” I muttered as my lips twitched into a nervous half-smile. “I know her name was Sheya and that my father met her after one of the
Don't Reject Me Beginning of the Battle
My heart almost burst out of my chest. If only anyone from the resistance knew about his plans... Garren and others could even help him plan the attack or help him with whatever he was planning. Suddenly, I felt hopeful and relieved. If what Kaan said was true, perhaps I shouldn't feel guilty about wanting to stay with him…Curiosity flared up inside me, and I wanted to ask Kaan more about this curse, but he insisted we get some sleep. At first, I wanted to push him to talk, but eventually, I felt too tired to keep my eyes open.He woke me up right before dawn. We needed to pack and get on the road, and the noises outside our tent told me that the entire army was almost ready to depart. Kaan gave me a moment of privacy so I could refresh and dress in one of my ridiculously unfit-for-battles gowns. Less than half an hour later, I was leaning against Kaan's firm chest while sitting in the saddle with Kaan's one hand on my waist and the other holding Than's reins.We both stayed silent u
Don't Reject Me The Right Thing
The boy stared at me with his wide green eyes filled with fear. His small chest heaved and fell with fast, shallow pants. I raised my hands and moved back. “I'm not going to hurt you,” I said.Rising to his hands and feet, he crawled back against the nearest tree, dropping his bow in the process. I snatched it and took a closer look. It was fine craftsmanship. The bow was light and was definitely created to fit small hands. I put the bow away and looked at the boy. “Are you from the Crescent Hills Pack?”He swallowed and nodded.I looked around and heard the sound of heavy footsteps. Shit. The warriors were getting closer. I drew a deep breath and locked my eyes on the scared child. “Did someone send you here?” I doubted that anyone would send a kid to a battle, but I needed to be sure.He shook his head again. “I… wanted to help.”I cursed under my breath. “You can't help anyone like this. Those few arrows you shot didn't even cause serious damage. You can only get yourself killed.”
