#Chapter 51 Let's look at our daughter
Rachel POV
Moonrise Entertainment - Tyler's Office (Executive Level)
"Alpha has a clear schedule today," Lonnah prompted, a look of compassion on her face I didn't want to examine too closely.
"Ask him if he has time for me to come in. Please."
I knew I was putting myself into a potentially miserable situation, but I found I couldn't leave pictures of my growing daughter behind as if I were ashamed. She was only a tiny blip on the scan and I already loved her more than my own life. I desperately wanted Tyler to be pleased to learn he was having a daughter.
Lonnah tapped her Bluetooth headset with a manicured finger, quickly paging Tyler and explaining I was present right outside his door. I couldn't hear his replies to her. She reached down to buzz me in though so Tyler must have agreed to see me.
Quickly agreed, too.
How many times I had been rejected at this door? I couldn't remember all the days I had

Rachel POVMoonrise Entertainment - Media Conference RoomA frisson of excitement went through me as Tyler said we were going to look at our daughter.I loved hearing him say 'our daughter' so much more than I had ever imagined I would."Let's see her!"Bella and I had shared my ultrasounds in the past so it wasn't the first time I had watched my baby with a partner. All the same I felt much more excited to see Tyler's reaction. I decided it was because I knew we were looking at our child together and I wanted her father to love her, be excited to see her, be proud of her growing strong inside me.We stood before a large cabinet where Tyler fiddled with the doors until one opened. I could tell he didn't do this on his own very often -a part of me wondered if Tyler had ever set up his own presentation before- but he managed to get the disk tray out to accept the DVD.I looked around for

Tyler POVTe Amo Ristorante"Is water fine with you?"Rachel preferred white wine to red; I had never figured out if her preference was because she genuinely favored the taste of white or she wanted to spite me as red was my favorite. Since she was pregnant, I couldn't rely on a glass of wine to distract us before our meal arrived."Yes, water is great. Sparkling? Do you have sparkling?"I wasn't sure where the hesitance was coming from with her, but she spoke with a quiet murmur I found I couldn't stop craving.If I had been dealing with Wynd, I would have blamed my wolf for the need to assert my dominance. Alpha tendencies could cause aggressive behavior at any time. I often felt the need to dominate others even if no one was challenging me.Wynd slept completely silent inside me though so all my cravings were my own for the first time since before I shifted.I waited on the waiter to return wit
Rejected My Alpha Mate #Chapter 54 Do you regret it? Never
Rachel POVBella & Rachel's Apartment - Rachel's BedroomBella was a wizard when it came to organizing the pantry or the refrigerator. She was able to find a place for all the leftovers I had brought home even though it was enough food for a week. I was grateful for her because if it had been left up to me, I'm sure I would have simply thrown everything away only to hate myself later for the waste.I hadn't been able to look at Tyler on the ride home though he had done his best to get my attention, cheer me up, gain a reaction of any kind from me since I was frozen inside.I couldn't respond though because I'd inadvertently reminded myself of all the things wrong with us.Why had I made a joke about wrinkles?Neither of us were old enough to worry about age lines. We were healthy and we would benefit from our werewolf birthright whether we could shift again or not. I had only wanted to joke around with him,

Rachel POVBlue Diamond - Kitchen"Rachel? Rachel!"I had no idea how long Bella had been trying to get my attention. I was perched on a counter in the kitchen of Blue Diamond while Bella made the specialty dessert of the night. The delicate tarts were more of a pain in the ass than they seemed to be worth in my estimation."What? I'm sorry. I was caught up in my head.""You were thinking about Tyler," Bella snorted, "You're going back to him because he bought you pasta? I can cook pasta."Jack laughed loudly before flicking flour into Bella's face. He and I were visiting while we went over our plans to get me a visit to House Campbell territory. I would have felt bad about being in her way while she was working except Bella clearly enjoyed the company."She says that as if you're terrible for thinking about your mate. How often do you think about me? No, really, tell me. I need the ego boost.""Y

Rachel POVBella & Rachel's ApartmentFull from 'taste-testing' Bella's special desserts, I wanted to get a nap in before I had to do anything else with my day. I was alone in the apartment when my phone rang. I was surprised to see Nathan in the caller ID screen. What was he wanting?"Hello?""Rachel! I'm so glad you picked up. Can we talk?"I wasn't sure how I felt about talking to Nathan. He'd been so desperate he had scared me. My bruises had faded a lot faster than my fear.Ultimately, I decided to talk to him because my need for him to be the boy I remembered outweighed my anxiety."Sure," I agreed, "We can talk. What did you have in mind, Nathan?""Can I come in? I'm right outside. I promise I'll leave if you want. I just want to talk and I'd rather do it in person if we can."Knowing Nathan was right outside the door gave me a momentary shiver. I wasn't sure if I was scared

Rachel POVBella & Rachel's Apartment"Honestly? I had too much going on to worry about hurting you. My brother had been kidnapped. Men were hurting him. Torturing him. They would have killed him, Nathan."Nathan looked at me in surprise. I could see the shock on his face as he took in what I said.There wasn't any doubt in his eyes which I knew came from the fact he'd known me our whole lives. Neither of us had hidden our family secrets from one another. Nathan had known Patrick was a gambler with bad luck as long as I'd known; I knew House Lewis mourned only having one son to their name when they'd wanted a houseful of children."I had to come up with half a million to save him. Patrick had sold me to pay the debt. I got away," I reassured him as I saw a flush creep along the hard line of his jaw, "That's how I met Tyler. I was taken to this---club. He was there in a room down the hall from where I was held. The

Tyler POVMoonrise Entertainment - Executive Level"I think I'm making headway for your girl!"I looked up from the contract I was going over to see my father letting himself into my office without a by-your-leave.John Wright had never been good with boundaries. As far as my father was concerned, this would always be his company and we were all only visitors playing in his sandbox while he was willing to share."What are you talking about?"I'd learned to be direct with him. Father wanted to play games while I didn't have the right nature for it."My granddaughter," he said.There was a smugness to his tone I knew meant he was congratulating himself on finding out I was having a daughter instead of a son even though I hadn't shared the information with him. The bastard could choke on the knowledge. I wasn't hiding my child's gender. He hadn't gotten a foothold over on me; I was not about to let h
Rejected My Alpha Mate #Chapter 59 Do you miss me being in bed with you
Rachel POVBella & Rachel's Apartment - Rachel's Bedroom"Nathan Lewis wants to take you into Moonglow territory. Is that his idea or yours?"I blinked as I processed what Tyler was saying at the same time I tried to take in how he was saying it."Tyler, are you drunk?"Liquor could affect werewolves the same as humans, but it took a lot more to intoxicate one of our kind than a human. I had fallen asleep only an hour ago according to the clock on my bedside table. Was the thought of Nathan being my escort enough to drive Tyler into a bottle?"Yes. Did you ask him to take you? Or did he offer?"I turned the lamp on as I sat up in bed, making myself as comfortable as I could against the headboard. My stomach felt bigger than ever as the sheets bunched at my waist; I wondered when I would begin to gain too much weight to fit into my clothes.Neither of those Alphas were going to want me when I was fat, were they?"I as
