Rejected and claimed by the alpha beast Novel by Paige T

boy, how could they be so cruel? She was going to kill them. Elsie felt like her sanity was leaving her until Rygan came into the room and saw her backed into a corner.

Rygan rushed to the flesh; one look at it, and he rushed back to Elise, shaking her. “Elly, look at me,” he said to her. “That is not Ethan’s, that was made to scare you.” He assured her.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

Rygan’s face contorted with realization as he held tighter onto Elise. “They might not know it’s us, but they knew someone would be, and here, this is planned.”

Elise’s eyes widened. “Hayden! Hayden!” She called again, but there was no answer. They heard the sound of different feet running up the steps.

And Elise knew it was armed men. But then she heard a voice in her head; it’s Hayden again. It’s faint, but there, oh gods, Hayden. I thought they had taken you.

“Angel, you need to listen to me right now. You both are surrounded, but there is an escape to all this,” he said, and Elise did not like his tone or where this was leading.

*What do you mean?”

“I told you I’d do anything for you. Anything to get back to Ethan for you.”

**Hayden, you didn’t

“I made a bargain with Marcus Newman, the boss of the human guild. I didn’t know we’d be seeing them so soon, but I made an agreement that I would give them Rygan, and he would hand Ethan to me. You found them too fast before the plan and-

She cut off the bond with a cause as Rygan looked at her worried. “What is it?” Her eyes welled up with tears.

She felt Hayden begging her to answer since they mean they were already up the steps, but to give Rygan life for her son, was this right, or would she just become the same monster as them? No, she wasn’t going to let Alvira and Kaide win so easily.

No, there has to be another way. “They are going to start shooting any minute,” Rygan said as he put himself in front of Elise. A cold wave of guilt washed over her from his stance to see if he was ready to lay his life for her.

How could she even think of betraying him? As she turned away from the door they’d bolted, she saw a sparkling stream of light illuminating the wall next to her; that wasn’t light but water Yes, they were in a port and surrounded by water.

While she was thinking, a small canister rolled into the room, and gas began to dissipate from it. It wasn’t just any gas, but random; they needed to get out now.

They had only one way to get out of this situation with both their heads still intact on their shoulders. Without thinking for another minute, Elise grabbed his hands, leaving Rygan confused as she whirled them both to the glass window behind them. “What are you doing?

Using her elbow as a shield and wedge, she broke through the glass, just as bullets began to rain down, barraging through the hold of the door. “Saving your life.”

They both jumped out of the window and into the large lake below; shouts of gunshots rang with the human hunt guild hot on their heels.

Fires of bullets made it into the water, but Rygan and Elise made sure to swim below the danger point; their extraordinary ability and speed helped as they swam through the water until they reached the shore.

“Quick, let’s go back to the car!” Elise said, “Hayden, where the hell are you?” She screamed through the mind call.

You need to give him up, Elise; they only want him, and we will be free to take Ethan. Don’t you want that? I have a boat waiting for us.

“Ethan isn’t here,” she said to Hayden. “They’ve played us both; we are leaving now, so come find us by the cabin; find me, please!” She begged, but there was no answer.

There was no response from Hayden to her plea or whatever the humans had done to stop his voice from reaching her mind. They couldn’t stay, not when she saw the humans coming into the battalion with armored cars ready for the chase. “How did they find us here?!” Rygan raged.

But Elise was far too conflicted to answer Hayden’s plan, knowing very well it wouldn’t end well. With one spark to the engine, it roared to life. She drove out of the woods and onto the dark, open roads, racing at an unimaginable speed.

She didn’t dare look back; she didn’t dare think of it. But before she knew it, she saw the other side of the road blocked by another group.

“El?!”

“I’m on it!” She called, driving into the woods instead. The rocky roads made the car tumble and shake, but she didn’t look back; a few of the cars couldn’t follow behind because of their size.

At first, she thought she might be losing them, but her eyes came across another trouble in front. A cliff.

Over 30 men were on their chase, and of course, with the silver random bullets, there was so little they could do. For a moment, she slowed down, weighing her chances to see how much they could survive this.

“Do you trust me?” She said to Rygan, who was ready to shift and fight all of those men head, but his gaze whirled to her in confusion.

“Don’t tell me…”

“That’s the only way!” She called, pushing her foot on the gas pedal, and it accelerated off the cliff and into the crashing waves of the deep blue water.

The human males raced from their car to the cliff, their eyes still wide with shock; even a madman would never jump from those waves with only a small chance of survival the continued shooting but it could barely meet the crashing waves

But as they watched, there was no trace of a body coming back up to the surface, and the night was quiet. With no sight of the wolves’ return, only blood pooled at the surface.

“F**k!” one of the men cursed as their plan had been foiled, and now Luna and Alpha were nowhere to be found.
