Rejected Chapter 136 - Next Step
Elizabeth POV It had been a few days since Carter had left me behind. We spoke the first couple of days until he advised me, as I had suspected, that he needed to stay at the Crescent Moon Pack longer than was expected. Since then, I have refused his calls and have not responded to his texts. He made me a promise and he broke it. My heart hurts being away from him. But now I am angry at everyone for the situation I am in. I hear a light knock on my door. Before I can yell go away, my mother walks in to stand directly in front of me. “Enough is enough, Elizabeth. I am sorry you are hurt, but it is time you got dressed and left this room. Get a shower, get dressed and I will meet you downstairs. There are things your father and I need to discuss with you,” she says sternly. I look at her with disgust on my face, “You can look at me like that all you want. It is time you got yourself together,” she says and turns away from me. “You have an
Rejected Chapter 137 - Carrying On
Elizabeth POV “Why?” I ask. “Why what?” my father replies. “Why would they attack? Why would it matter who the leader was?” I ask trying to understand. “The way it works is if a family member of the current King or Queen does not take over, then the position is up for grabs, if you will. It means there would be a fight to the bitter end so that the victor would take over,” he shares with me. “If you thought your cousin and uncle were bad, you cannot imagine what lingers outside these walls,” my mother says with a shiver. My father rubs his hand up and down her arm comforting her. “But that will not happen. We have you back and you will ensure the Kingdom carries on under our leadership,” my father says with a smile. “Are you out of your minds? How does it make sense that I would take over a Kingdom? And what about my mate?” I ask them both. “Carter can move here and rule with you,” my mother says as if it is most logical. “What if he does
Rejected Chapter 138 - Threat
Alpha Carter POV “Nobody talks to the Luna, without me knowing why,” I say to him calmly. “Suffice it to say it is serious,” the rogue replies. “Not good enough,” I say to him as I stand to walk away. “They are coming for her,” he says in a hushed voice. I slowly turn around, “Who?” I ask. “All of them,” he says quickly not wanting anyone to hear him. I look to Stan who shrugs equally confused by this rogue’s behaviour. He is not a normal, cocky rogue. He seems genuine which is a total conflict when you think of a rogue. “What do you mean?” I ask sitting back down in the seat. “They know she is the next Queen of the Kingdom. They want to take her out so they can start the war on the Kingdom,” he says. I look at him bewildered at what he is telling me. “Why would her not being there cause a war?” I ask. “She is the key. If she is not there, war in inevitable,” he replies. I sit back in my chair. He seems legit and her parents have been
Rejected Chapter 139 - Discussions
Elizabeth POV The past couple of weeks have been a whirlwind. My parents have been giving me as much education as my brain could handle when it came to royalty protocols and politics. They hired a private tutor to help me with building some foundational skills that I had lacked in my education. I spoke with Carter daily. The conversations were tense, but I would not miss them. I was still hurt that it was better for me to be away than there helping with the rogue attacks. The rogue attacks were ongoing but seemed less intense. Alpha Kyle had sent some of his warriors to support the efforts. Carter was on his way to see me. He should be here within a couple of hours. We had things to discuss. I was anxious as I had no idea what he wanted to talk about. I know my parents wanted to talk to him about the opportunities that are here for him if he chose to come to the Kingdom to rule with me. As I had told them, I still was not ready
Rejected Chapter 140 - Reconnecting
Elizabeth POV Hearing someone clear their throat, I reluctantly released Carter’s lips stepping back slightly in his arms. My parents are both smiling, as I look at them and back to Carter. I do not let Carter go, having missed him so much. I am afraid I am dreaming. But I know from the sparks and his scent, that he is real. “We will leave you two alone,” my mother says as she nudges my father down the hall. We step into my mother’s office and shut the door locking the world out. I look at Carter and simply move into his arms again. His arms are open to receive me as he lifts me up. I wrap my legs around his waist, and he moves us back to the loveseat. Sitting down I am straddling him, and simply lock onto his lips once again. I move down slowly to kiss his mark. My mark nestled strongly between his neck and his shoulder. He groans, “I have missed you so much,” he murmurs as I move to kiss the base of his throat, “I think I missed you more
Rejected Chapter 141 - Breaking the Bond
Elizabeth POV After a long night of just the two of us, we enjoyed supper and breakfast in bed. Just now deciding it was time to get moving and start the day even though it was almost noon. Carter and I had reconnected on every level, and it felt good to be home. That is what Carter was to me. Home. Before we leave the room Carter takes me into his arms, “Now you know whatever happens, I love you right?” he asks me. I look at him confused, “What do you mean?” I reply. “Nothing. I just always want you to know I love you and that I have your best interests at heart,” he says. “I do not like where this is heading,” I reply trying to disengage from his arms. He holds me tighter, not wanting to let go. “What have you already decided?” I demand of him. He shakes his head, “Nothing. I just want you to listen with an open mind,” he replies as he releases me, quickly taking my hand and leading me out of my room. I have a bad feeling a
Rejected Chapter 142 - The Key
Alpha Carter POV Elizabeth jumps to her feet, screaming at her father. “What the hell are you talking about? You promised I would not have to give Carter up. You swore you understood what a mate bond meant to me,” she says as she starts to walk towards the door. “Where are you going?” the King bellows at his daughter. “As far away from you as possible,” she replies as she walks out the door slamming it shut behind her. “What the hell are you playing at, Ethan?” Queen Erin demands of her mate. “I am not playing at anything, Erin. You know damn well that this Kingdom is at risk. We need her to be focused on the task at hand,” he replies to his mate angrily. “Not this way. We never agreed that she would have to give up her mate,” the Queen says to her mate. “I will not do it,” I reply to them both. The Queen looks to me with respect in her eyes. “I cannot break the bond with Elizabeth. I will not break the bond,” I say to them both. The Ki
Rejected Chapter 143 - Witches Council
Elizabeth POV “Do you know any witches, Carter?” I murmur as I stare at my brother. He laughs out loud, “What?” not clear where I am going. I explain to him what has happened so far, and he looks at me surprised. “Your father has not been able to get someone here yet?” he questions. I nod, “Odd right?” I ask. “Very,” he replies before adding, “Give me a few minutes and I will make a call,” he says as he stands to make that call. I continue to look at my brother and I realize I can see his eyelids moving. As if he is watching a movie. “I wish you would visit me again. I need your advice,” I say to him as I watch his movements. Carter finishes his call but before he can tell me anything the door to Eric’s room opens and my father walks in with my mother close on his heels. “I owe you both an apology,” my father starts to say before I cut him off. “Your words mean very little to me at this point,” I say to him moving closer to Carter.
