Awakening the Rejected Queen Chapter 49: Out of Control
Zane’s POVThere was a full moon coming. I could feel it.And the timing couldn’t be worse.Slade was teetering on the brink of madness. He had become unglued, driven crazy by his lust for her. He couldn’t help it, he was obsessed with her. It was a basic need, an instinct, and it was making him insane.A full moon had always been hard for me, ever since Slade went crazy. In the past, I was always nervous that he’d do something bad, something violent or dangerous. So I never let him out. I fought to keep him inside during the full moon. Don’t get me wrong, it wasn’t easy. He paced and howled and groaned, begging to be released. I couldn’t take the chance, though. So we sat inside during the full moon, away from its light.This full moon though? The one that was coming? I knew it would be way worse than any in the past. Why? Because Slade was going insane. Ever since Eden rejected me, his mental state had worsened. He was going to lose his mind, I could feel it. Letting him loose to
Awakening the Rejected Queen Chapter 50: Full Moon Night
Eden’s POVChloe was right. Zane really did want to kill me.Why else would he have let his wolf attack me like that?I could tell something was different that night. I could see it in his eyes when he walked into my room. The moon was full and bright and he seemed on edge. He didn’t say anything, he just crawled into bed beside me. But the moment he was in bed with me, he started kissing my neck. I tried to shake him off. I already told him that I didn’t want to have sex without love. But then he forcefully reached between my legs.I knew he wanted me. More than ever by the looks of it. And for a brief moment, I almost gave in. But I had something important to ask him. So I slapped his hand and got out of the bed. I saw the anger flash in his eyes. Then I saw his face contort. He told me to run but I was confused. I had no idea he was letting his wolf out.And then, before I knew it, he had shifted into a massive black wolf.I froze. The wolf was enormous. It’s eyes shone in the moon
Awakening the Rejected Queen Chapter 51: Adrian
Eden’s POVOuch.The instant my head went under the water, it hurt. The lake was icy cold, far colder than I anticipated. I breached the surface and swam as fast as I could. Away from Zane and his terrifying black wolf. Away from the prison of a palace. Away from the stupid maids who gossiped all the time. And away from Chloe, the woman Zane had chosen over me.My arms pumped through the water and I kicked my legs with abandon. Overhead, the moon shone down, illuminating just enough of the lake for me to see right in front of me. But not enough for me to see the other end.I breathed heavily. My lungs began to burn. My skin felt numb from the cold water. But I kept on swimming.I left Zane behind me on the shore, swimming further and further out into the dark, cold lake. I hoped that the excursion was enough to keep my body warm.I was wrong.About twenty minutes in, my body temperature had dropped to low. My legs and arms felt weak. My muscles burned. My strength was depleting; I was
Awakening the Rejected Queen Chapter 52: Grandfather
Eden’s POV“My grandfather?” I asked Adrian.“Yeah. Come on, I’ll take you to him. It’s not far.” I had to admit, I was really curious. My mother ever talked about her father, so I knew virtually nothing about him.“He’s the Alpha,” Adrian told me as we walked through the woods. “He’s great. Really strong. Kind. Compassionate.”I smiled. “If you say so,” I quipped.Adrain was right, it wasn’t far. We soon came to the pack boundary. Adrian led me through the pack. He nodded and smiled at werewolves as weaved our way through.“He’s probably in the Alpha Office,” Adrian said, flashing me a smile.“At this hour? It’s got to be past midnight,” I said. We approached a little building with large windows.“It’s a full moon,” Adrian said. “Alphas are always up late during the full moon.” He said this like it was something everyone knew.“Oh,” I replied.We entered the building. Sitting at a table in the center of the room, was a strong man with silver hair. He was old, but still had a rugged h
Awakening the Rejected Queen Chapter 53: Remarriage?
Eden’s POVIt only took me a few days to adjust to life in the Silver Mist Pack. In fact, it was the most comfortable place I had ever been. It was so different from my last pack, and certainly different than being with the Lycan King. I felt accepted here. At the Sequoia Pack, even though I was Luna, I never really felt like I had everyone’s respect. Least of all, Caleb’s. Everyone knew I was wolfless, and I guess they just didn’t take me all that seriously.But it was different here. I was embraced by the pack; they all treated me like family. They didn’t care that I didn’t have a wolf. They were friendly and sincere. My first week was a blur of dinner and lunch invitations. There was always someone dropping by to see if I needed anything: food, clothes, toiletries. It was the first time in my life that I hadn’t been looked down on for being wolflfess.I felt included.After a couple of days, I asked my grandpa if I could train with the warriors. I was nervous to ask because I didn’
Awakening the Rejected Queen Chapter 54: I Have a She-wolf
Eden’s POV“What?” I asked, confused.“I’d like you to marry Adrian,” my grandfather said again.Marry?I needed a moment to absorb this, but my grandpa continued.“Adrian grew up under my guidance,” he said. “He’s responsible. And trustworthy. He has a solid character and a good heart. I know he could take good care of the pack, and myself, in the future.”My grandfather paused, waiting for my response. Sure, Adrian sounded nice enough but…Zane.His hot breath on my neck. His lips on mine. The image of him flashed through my mind. The heat from his body wrapped around mine. I had refused to admit it, but I really missed him.I shook my head.No. This was ridiculous! Zane is a ruthless king! He wanted to kill me! I can’t have feelings for someone like that. All Zane has done is cause me hurt.But still…The heart wants what the heart wants. And even though Zane didn’t want me, but my heart still wanted him.It hurt. It hurt that he didn’t want me, that he was ruthless and careless wi
Awakening the Rejected Queen Chapter 55: My Queen
Zane’s POVShe’s gone.She’s really gone.The morning after the full moon, I awoke with the sun. I reached for Eden, but she wasn’t there. My heart lurched as I realized I had to accept a very painful reality –Eden had left me.It was Slade. I knew it was. He had terrified her, and rightfully so! I’d lost control of him and he’d burst out. He took her neck in his claws, overcome with madness. She bolted and I chased her all the way to the lake. I wanted to explain, to tell her the truth.But when I got there, I was devasted to see her waist high in the water. What was she doing? Was she trying to swim away?I called her and she turned. I saw her eyes clearly in the moonlight. They were filled with terror.My mate. She was afraid of me.Without hesitation, she dove, head first into the cold, dark lake.I took a step towards her, my hand outreached, to stop her. But I was too exhausted. I blacked out.My guards found me in an unconscious, crumpled heap on the shore. They brought me bac
Awakening the Rejected Queen Chapter 56: Pack Run
Eden’s POVThe first ray of sunlight filtered through the forest. I stretched my arms and legs. All around me, other pack members were doing the same.“Good luck,” Adrian said, patting my shoulder as he walked by.“Thanks,” I smiled back.I couldn’t contain my excitement. I was going to race – really race! – in the pack run! I felt like I was part of the pack in a way I’d never felt before. I’d never been allowed to race. Everyone thought I was too weak, including Caleb. I’d asked Caleb several times, but he’d always scoffed. ‘You?’ he’d said, rolling his eyes. ‘You’re hardly qualified to run with the pack.’ He didn’t even give me the chance.But now here I was, with all the other runners, racing like a real wolf.I was nervous to ask my grandfather.“Can I…can I race in the pack run?” I asked, wringing my hands.His eyes lit up.“Of course, Eden!” he smiled. “You’re a part of this pack. Of course you can race.”He had no idea how much those words meant to me.‘A part of the pack.’
