Rejected and claimed by the alpha beast Novel by Paige T

Elsie had no idea why she felt so nervous-maybe because she was in the same close space as Rygan and they were alone, or just because his annoyingly handsome face was a few inches from hers.

It took a good second before he let go and walked to the other end of the ring. Elise’s gaze flicked to the arms resting on his waist; the gesture made his muscles flex as he looked deeply at her.

“Get into your sparring stance, El, I want to see how much you’ve been trained,” he instructs Elise. She takes a much-needed deep breath as she gets into position, her hand forming a raised fist, protecting her core and face from any incoming attack.

She made sure to let her feet hold down and planted them to the gre. Rygan was impressed by her quick reaction as he shifted into an identical stance.

“I want you to pin me down. I want to know how much you’ve learned and how fast we can go to the next stage of your training. His face was stoic as the air calmed and the whole place was quiet.

“Now” he channels her mind, and Elsie immediately goes for the offense; she uses her speed, reaching Rygan in seconds. she raises her fist going for a surprise attack, but Rygan already reads it and blocks her.

She tried again, but this time he dodged, twisting her arms till she grunted from pain. Her back was pulled close to his chest and his warm cedarwood scent filled her senses as his head leaned on her shoulder.

“Good, but I need you to be faster,” his husky voice whispered into her ear. She had to bite down on a groan that also left her lips. She kicked his shin, making him let her go, and she attacked again, this time opting for his legs.

And when he least expected it. Elise finds a weak spot and gets Rygan on his knees. She goes behind him to put him in a headlock, but Rygan reaches for her arms, turning her over until her body hits the floor. “Ugh. augh, she grunts.

“You need to be more aggressive and intentional with your attacks because your opponent will never play fair; imagine someone else,” Rygan calls. As he leans on top of her small frame, their sweaty bodies and loud breath fill the room.

He watched her porcelain skin lined with sweat, his hand still firmly holding both her arms over her head. Her breath was harsh and fast, causing her chest to rise. The beautiful slope of her body did something to Rygan. His wolf desired to be closer. “Too slow.

But the moment he was distracted, Elise turned the tables, kicking him by the side. In a quick motion, she pushed until his back hit the floor, and she was right on top of him. “How about now?” she hissed.

“Good, you’ve executed more than my expectations,” he called as she let go of his arms, his hands instinctively moving to her waist, holding her small waist, and feeling her curves and warmth as he watched Elise finally catch her breath.

But it wasn’t long until Elise noticed the very compromising position they were in. As she noticed his large hands on her waist and her a** resting on his clothed groin, her breath hitched in response to the tension that grew.

He immediately released his hold on her the moment Rygan noticed too; he let his hands off her, and she quickly stood up from straddling him.

“Well, that was… I-I win,” she stutters out. As she clears her throat, she feels like the air got warmer, her breath still heated, and the part of his hand still felt warm, but when she turned to Rygan, he did not look affected at all.

What the hell is wrong with you, Elise? Concentrate! She scolds herself,

“Our next stop is the black hills; we will take a hike there, and I will teach you how to turn. The last option is for me to use my alpha voice to command you, and I don’t want to reach that point,” he explains.

Elise shudders in relief, recalling the last time she was forced to turn by an alpha voice was Kyren, and even though she knew Rygan wouldn’t be half as cruel, she still felt apprehensive about it, but knowing what she was truly going to face, she

needed to face this head-on

They head into the woods, up the hidden, dark yet familiar path as they begin the hike up the mountain.

The silence was getting to Elise as she let out a loud sigh of boredom.

“What is 12” He called from behind her.

“I mean, are you ever supposed to be doing this with me! You’re the alpha king, and it seems very inappropriate that you’re going up to the hill with me when you’re getting mated soon”

“And why would you deem this mappropriate?” He asks, and Elise stops in her tracks. A blush creeps up her cheek as the sputters out words.

I don’t know if it feels weird”

You have a male courting you; you it was over, and you feel nothing, so what is the big deal? Did he not site your pleasures well enough when you were with him?” He bites back did not f**k him and it’s none of your business,” she snarls, annoyed by his attitude.

“I never asked if you did he answers with a cold look “You’re acting like you called my name when you were with him,” be says and Elise feels her next words of retons die down on her lips as a rush of embarrassment flushes her cheeks as she shoves on Rygan’s chest.

“P*k” she muttered. Before she could take another step. Rygan held her arms and pulled her back to her body, leaning on a

“Did you?” He calls, searching her eyes for a hint of lies or truth. Her lids blinked rapidly as she tried to get out of the situation with each move Rygan made towards her.

She swallowed a breath, trying to look closer to Elise than his lips, but peered up from her lashes, looking up at his stormy grey eyes. The moons help her.

“Did I do what? Call your name. No, I didn’t and wouldn’t; don’t be ridiculous,” she lied. “Unless you’re curious if 1 f**d him,” she says to Rygan, his eyes immediately becoming cold with something accustomed to jealousy. She feels the bark of the tree grown under his grasp before he pulls back.

His hands fell from her side, and they continued the journey for hours till they reached the mountaintop. Elsie was surprised to see the small cabin that was now built on the land.

“How…” she starts staring at the building in awe. The intricate and careful designs of the small cabin were something she had never seen. It was small yet majestic.

“Do you like it? It’s not much; I built it on a whim, and it’s better than letting you sleep out in the open,” he says, dropping their things on the open porch. She paused, finally realizing his words.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

“You built this alone?” She was shocked at what Rygan did; she didn’t know why her wolf was so elated by this, and she touched the great oak pillars of the cabin, still admiring it when she heard a shuffle of clothes between her

She turns to see Rygan undressing and his pants being taken off, leaving him almost stark naked. With a very endowed curve in his underwear, the blush quickly spreads on her cheeks as her eyes widen in shock.

“What in the moon’s hell are you doing?” She called, immediately turning away, she could hear the amusement in his voice at he spoke

“This is the way I teach, this is the way I was taught we were taught to not be afraid of our wolves and to merge with feral nature, and it helps that your clothes won’t be in total ruin he adds with a smirk. I’m afraid your boyfriend was just trying to take the polite way out of training you.”

Elise rolls her eyes away from his taunts as her arms flare in the air in frustration “So what will you have me do?” She calls in confusion. There is a beat of silence as she hears the grass brush quietly with each of Rygan’s steps until he is a few feet closer to her. Their eyes lock, and his gaze is unflinching as his next words stun her.

“I want you to strip.
