Chapter 47
A commotion rose in the hall. Everyone started talking in hushed whispers. This was no small
news.
On one hand, it was the third top most powerful alpha, and on the other hand, it was the girl who was recently announced as someone who would fight for the council head’s position.
Rejections were rare, and an omega rejecting an alpha was rare, but rejecting a rejection and setting up the bond again was literally something that only happened once in history.
Besides, the girl clearly looked like she would rather die than be with this alpha.
“Jackson, have you lost your mind?” Derek growled at Jackson while Draco held Anastasia to ensure she didn’t feel alone this time.
“Have I lost my mind? Of course, I have, but if this loss of mind is going to ensure I get my love back, why not? Anastasia, you do agree that I loved you at one point in time, don’t you?” Jackson smirked, and Anastasia’s eyes turned dark.
1 will never be yours,” She snarled at him.
“I know, sweetheart. But now that I have rejected your rejection, your body will surely want to be with me. Let’s see till when you will be able to fight back your desires,” Jackson smirked, and Anastasia’s eyes darted to Kristina, who had tears brimming her eyes.
Anastasia wanted to be smug.

She at least took the revenge for her betrayal from this so–called two–faced friend who so cunningly acted like she was her only friend and then stabbed her where it hurt the most. But was she really happy herself? What Jackson did just now was more harmful to her than anyone.
What he said was true too. It was almost time for her cycle of heat since the three months had passed, and now he rejected the rejection. Her body’s desire will increase tenfold.
It was deliberate. And, of course, he had to do it. He had to ruin it. No matter how hard she tries to stay happy or ignore everything, something has to happen.
‘Anastasia, I am really sorry. I had no idea something like this would happen and – Dione started, but Anastasia shook her head.
She didn’t want to hear anything at the moment. She turned around to leave, but her face collided with Kaiden’s chest, making her wince and scowl.
She rubbed her nose and was about to walk past him when he held her hand.
Well, since everyone is announcing one thing or another here, wouldn’t it look bad if the alpha of the alphas, Alpha Kaiden, doesn’t say a thing?” Alpha Kaiden said, and everyone immediately quietened.
“I am sure everyone knows that I am known as the cursed alpha because of the curse from a witch. According to the curse, I can’t touch any woman and won’t ever find my mate without my wolf going haywire. However, as you can clearly see, I finally found someone who can break my curse, Alpha Kaiden raised Anastasia’s hand in the air.
She coughed violently, her eyes as wide as saucers.
What are you trying to say, Alpha Kaiden?” The council head immediately stepped ahead, and Kaiden smirked.

“Why are you acting so oblivious, Timothy? You should know exactly what I am talking about. I am using the correct type of English, aren’t I? If I am raising her hand and saying she can break my curse, what do you think I mean?” Alpha Kaiden asked, looking at Anastasia, who was still in shock “Honestly, I don’t know if the can break my curse. What I know is that nothing happens to me when I touch her. I have already proposed to her, and she said yes” Kadenad
“No, I didn’t,” Anastasia immediately snapped, and Kaiden smirked before he stepped ahead.
“Oh, sweetheart. Try to remember clearly. You said yes,” He said, and Anastasia was about to deny it again, when he cupped her jaws.
His gaze asks a question do you want to get out of this situation or not?
“I said I am thinking.” Anastasia gave a vague answer, and Kaiden smirked at her cunningness.
“Same thing,” he whispered before turning to the crowd
“Now, since I am announcing it to the world and all the alphas, I hope everyone knows I am not playing around. This is serious from my side And I can see I have got a good competition Unfortunately, I know how to win, Kaiden said before he grabbed her hand and started descending
the stairs
Jackson immediately stood in front of Alpha Kaiden, his eyes resolute
“Alpha Kaiden? Didn’t you hear me? I just announced that I rejected the rejection. So how can you take away my mate? This is unethical” Jackson said
Kaiden looked at him up and down, his gaze not even wavering as he looked at the mediocre alpha in front of him.
“Did I stutter when I said I am serious about her?” Kaiden asked, and Jackson found himself in a tough spot
It was obvious he couldn’t go against the strongest Alpha in the world, who was known to kill without mercy, and for 10 years no Alpha had dared to go against this particular Alpha Even the council listens to him. Wasn’t that exactly the reason Draco and Derek weren’t saying anything? “But-”
“Alpha Jackson, in my world, nothing is unethical as long as I am the one doing it. But I will do something unethical according to your dictionary if you don’t leave my path this instant,” Kaiden said, and Jackson looked at the girl whose cheeks were turning red from all the attention she was receiving.
Was she going with him by choice?
No. It can’t be. She was afraid of him. Jackson looked at Anastasia before turning around and leaving.
“Anastasia, let’s eat something.” Draco held Anastasia’s hand, and the latter immediately pulled her hand away from Kaiden’s hold, making him want to pinch his nose
Of course, if there was anything in this world that he couldn’t win over, then it was her love for food. He did not say anything. He walked behind her, patiently waiting for her to finish her food as she piled her plate even more so that she could have more time away from Kaiden.
Kaiden smirked at her actions and took a plate before placing some food.
He noticed how she picked two cutlets, but her plate didn’t have enough space, and he Immediately extended his plate towards her.

“You can place them here. We are going to eat together anyway, Kaiden said, and Anastasia looked at him before nodding absentmindedly.
Kaiden suppressed the urge to smile at the girl. He had heard that a man’s way to his heart was through his stomach, but it looked like it was the case for his woman here.

will have to learn to cook new and more dishes so that she can remain happy with him. So that she craves his food and only his touch at the end of the day.
“Shall we sit here?” Kaiden asked, and Anastasia hummed.
He could see she was clearly thinking about something, and he wanted to be a part of her every thought.
“What is it?” He asked. Anastasia was about to answer when Draco and Dexter joined their table, making Kaiden roll his eyes.
“Well, what could we do? Who would’ve thought our love interest would be taken away like this?” Derek said, and anyone could see though he was speaking in a light tone, his words held a sarcasm behind them.
“What can I say? It’s on a first–come, first–get basis. I have been proposing to her earlier than you. And she kissed me too. Did she kiss you?” Kaiden said shamelessly, and all eyes were instantly on
Anastasia.
Anastasia –“…” Yes. Kill me. I am the one who invited this on myself. Tell me I fucked myself.
She gave everyone a tight–lipped smile.
“In my defence, I was trying to save myself from a creep, and he was the only handsome person in sight I could use. I didn’t even know he was an Alpha at that time,” Anastasia said before stuffing her mouth.
“And now that she has used me once, I want to allow her to keep using me. Always at your service, my lady,” Kaiden wiped the corner of her mouth from his thumbs before placing it in his mouth, making her scowl as she slapped his hand playfully.
They didn’t want to believe it. But how could they deny what was right in front of them?
They hadn’t seen Anastasia being so carefree with someone like this. When they found her, she was broken, and they heard about the truth regarding her birth very late from their father.
However, she still acted mischievously with them and used to smile, which gave them the impression that maybe they were the only ones who would be able to make her happy.
However, seeing her genuinely annoyed expression right now, they knew they were wrong all along.
It wasn’t a smile, but it was an emotion they could never pull off from her.
Derek looked at Draco in a silent understanding and held his hand.
Let’s go,” he said, making Draco look at Anastasia, whose gaze was fixated on Alpha Kaiden because he wasn’t stopping with his annoying actions.
His heart skipped a beat as it ached painfully. He has seriously started liking her. Draco’s hand on his knife clenched, and Anastasia, who immediately felt his emotions, looked up to him.
He immediately smiled at her forcefully, but she could feel what he was feeling.
“Shall we talk?” Anastasia placed her hand on Draco’s, and Derek immediately sighed.
Kaiden wanted to interrupt, but he didn’t want to keep forcing her and appear like one of those overbearing alphas who don’t give their Luna enough space to even breathe without their
permission.
would love that, Draco said, and Anastasia grabbed two sandwiches in her hand, making Draco chuckle at her actions before he opened a clean napkin and placed some cutlets and stuffed vegetable buns in it
Derek followed suit, his gaze shifting to his father, who was looking at them with a look that said – seriously?
They were the hosts of the party, and they were acting like thieves stealing food.
Draco and Dexter walked out with Anastasia following them.
“Shall we go to my room? I am not thinking of going back to the party. And as pretty as I looked, this dress can be a little handful,” Anastasia smiled at them helplessly, and they chuckled at her before shaking their heads at the stupid girl and nodding.
