Rejected and claimed by the alpha beast Novel by Paige T

The moment Elise spilled those painful words to Rygan, forcing him to believe she felt nothing anymore, she hadn’t expected him to agree so easily.

Something in her felt like it was breaking into small pieces. You greed to this? Letting me go? Are we doing this? Was this over?” She thought.

A part of her hated that he wasn’t fighting her words, she always did and finally heeded them. It hurt more than it should have to see he was giving up, but the moment she left him by the woods and he didn’t reach out for her that was the moment she knew it was over. But what changed?

She couldn’t even blame him when she begged for it, pleaded for her to be free of him, and he gave it this time so willingly. but why did she feel like her heart had just been ripped out!

The moment she slammed the doors and walked back into the room where Vientia was, the last patient who was leaving, she turned to give a small smile to tell Vienna she was alright, but she could barely do it.

“I’m sorry. I’ll clean up instead,” Elise mutters with a croaky voice as she reaches for one of the metal boxes with Vienna surgery instruments.

But her hand felt so numb she could barely hold it as it all clattered to the floor. The sound of the instruments scattered on the ground made Elise jump momentarily and be shocked at what she’d done..

“I’m sorry I’m so sorry. Lei me clean it up,” she muttered frantically to Vienna, looking very worried as she shut the door behind them.

She sees Elise still bent on the floor; the tip of her fingers shined with a red metal liquid that Vienna immediately made out as blood as she ran to her friends. “It hurts Elise muttered.

“Let me clean it,” Vienna mutters as she picks Elise off the ground and sits her down. She cleans the hand but hears Elise snilling

“It hurts more than I thought it would,” she whispered, and Vienna looked up at Elise, so distraught and heartbroken that she could immediately tell it was never about the wound on her finger.

“The pain will go away: you won’t feel like this forever, I promise Vienna assured Elise, taking her into a tight hug.

Her heart ached so much that she never thought she would feel so much pain from Rygan’s silence. It hurts, it hurts, it hurts,” she muttered tearfully.

Elise breaks down on Vienna’s shoulder, wailing like a little child from her loss. They stayed like that for a while. “It’s ok, El; 1 swear it will be,” she assured. It was already late when Vienna suggested that Elise stay the night in her cottage, suggesting she had a spare room, which she gladly accepted.

But she could hardly sleep, tossing and turning all day till dawn. When Vienna offered to share a bed to calm her, it did nothing for her, as her thoughts were filled with nothing but Rygan. She got out of the bed that she and Vienna shared and was suddenly in desperate need of a walk.

Taking a long, quiet walk towards the moon house, she still felt weird but was a bit better about it all, but she knew she needed to train with the others, so she had to go change first.

She got into the dimly lit halls, taking the steps to her quiet chambers. She took a bath before changing into her combat training clothes.

She was the first to come into the training grounds; she liked it that way–the silence and the opportunity to finally be alone to think.

“So it’s because of me then, she mutters, turning away to remove her gloves as the guilt feels so thick, yet she feels Kaide walk closer to her.

“Good, then it’s a date”

“How about tomorrow?” She asks, and Kaides brows raise in surprise that she wanted it so soon. As he watches her hands trace his wounded lips, he feels a warm sensation, and he is healed.

“Yes, 2000, unless you’re waiting for something?” she asks Kaide, who smirks

But she didn’t have to even be near him, just being in the same space as him for rumors to fly around the whole training academy that she was sleeping with him.

Especially when Zach comes into the hall, he and his minions can’t even give a glance to Elise in fear of the consequences of their commander’s wrath

Tazmin, on the other hand, hardly glanced at her, and when he did, she couldn’t exactly explain his gaze, but she knew something major must have happened involving the three of them. She wondered how Rygan would react if he learned of her planned date with Kaide, would he accept it?Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“El, hey” Bellamy called, catching her attention; she was her sparring partner, and Elsie wasn’t responding to her attacks that well, very much distracted by something she wasn’t telling Bellamy. “You alright? You seem out of it today.”

“No, I’m just distracted.”

“Why?” She asks Elise, who turns to glance at the upper–level deck where Taz and Kaide are watching them train. She meets Kaide’s gaze, who smiles at her before she turns back and answers Bellamy.

“Because I have a date.”
