My Rejected King (Excerpt)

Chapter 3

"Why?" I found myself shakily asking.

"Well, have you downloaded a dating app recently?" He asked, making me quirk my eyebrow in confusion.

"Yes," I replied nonetheless."Kind of."

"That app, my Lady is a magical app designed many years ago by the witches and wizards of the world. Its meant to help umated supernatural beings find their mates or beloveds or life partners if you will, from wherever they were. Eventually, the application extended into a new dimension, yours to be specific. We found that some people could not find their other halves even while using the application so our wizards and witches 'upgraded' the application recently as to help those beings. To our greatest joy and luck, the application became a success. Many people started discovering their other halves. Unfortunately it came with a price," He softly sighed," Seeing as your people are from a different dimension than ours, the application teleports your kind into our world without your supernatural counterpart having the application."

"I have the same experience with my mate." He explained.

Surprisingly, I remained calm throughout his explanation. My mind slowly digesting the information, until my head started lightly throbbing.

"When can I go home?" I found myself typically asking.

Noah nervously cleared his throat before cautiously responding," I'm afraid I do not think that is possible, Miss."

Those words were all it took to make my world turn black as I lost consciousness.

Noah's POV

A quiet sigh left my lips as I carefully laid the young lady's unconscious, small body onto the bed.

My mate was more welcoming of our situation, but then, I was the one who explained to her, her mate. My Luna here has a different situation as a whole. Her mate does not even wish to breath the same air as her, or so he thinks.

Taking the silky blanket, I gently threw it over her body before quietly leaving the room.

"Is she unconscious?" Came a familiar, deep and authority filled voice from behind me.

"Yes," I quietly sighed, running a hand through my once neatly styled, jet black curls." You should give her a chance or I fear that you might find yourself regretting your current choice."

With that, I took off to my office to finish my pending work.

"I think not, Noah. I am aware that you are my advisor but that is only when it comes to the throne. Not my personal endeavours." Theo's rage filled, stubborn voice echoed from next to me making me want to sigh in exhaustion.

"Yes, I am aware, but I am also your friend, am I not? And as such it is mandatory for me to tell you if you are making regrettable, senseless choices." I calmly responded before entering my office and closing the door behind me, leaving him seething outside of the door in rage. The barely contained growl from the other side of the door showing his wolf's barely contained rage from the slight disrespect.

(Was that necessary?) Came my wolf's irritated, disapproving, gruff voice from our shared bond. Him being the loyal beta he was did not enjoy me, his human disrespecting his alpha and king.

'Unfortunately so.' I internally, tiredly sighed at Jax's response.

(I suppose you don't quite have a choice.) He silently agreed.
