REJECTED MATE : CHAPTER 1 – 10
[THE GIRL IN THE CAVE]
In a cave lost in time and buried by cities, a girl senses a boy the moment he sets foot in the cave for the first time in centuries, 600 years she feels she has half turned to stone, the sound of his footsteps rattles her like a clap of thunder and she bolts fully awake
She pushed against the sides of the cage calling out to him but of course, he could not hear, he is just a common human boy, he cannot hear the cry of a cursed queen.
She senses his cautious footsteps as he crosses the threshold of the hidden Cavern and reaches out with her sixth sense, following him as he steps down the Narrow stare cut into the sandstone, his fingers trailing along an ancient wall carved with symbols, their meanings lost to time.
how strange it was after her long Solitude to feel his presence here like a light at the bottom of the dark sea. She reached as far as she could to see if he could notice her but then she wondered…
who is he? how did he find this place? Is just a boy a moment in time that will soon pass? She has known a thousand and one like him and will know a thousand and one more.
He is nothing she told herself, so she will not hope for him. She is not allowed to hope and she’s forbidden to use her powers on her own wish.
She will not show how Madly, Deeply, desperately she wants the boy to release her of this accuracy Darkness, instead she folds and unfolds, waiting with faded breath.
Her sixth sense is blurred like watching fish swim in a ribbling pool and she must concentrate very hard to see him at all.
He carried a small torch which he holds up as he stares into the great Cavern, truly there was no Cave at all, but a vast echoing haul once part of a great Palace lost long ago to war and time now, it lies deep in the desert, one ruin among many, buried beneath layers of sand and Memories columns.
This place is haunted by ghosts and she was one of them. The boy holds up his torch and it shines brightly into her eyes but he flinched back upon seeing her.
She looked like one in her twenties so he thought she was young.
“Who are you?” He asked, taking a step forward and staring cautiously at her.
“Help me,” It was just at the tip of her lips to spit it out but she was forbidden to ask for favor of any kind.
After what seemed like forever, he dropped the backpack on his bag to the floor and pulled out a hammer from it.
“I don’t know who you are or where you’re from but promise me that you won’t hurt or attack me once I set you free from this cage,” he said holding up the hammer.
Her body was bruised, her lips dry, her legs reddish but she was forbidden to sit.
“I promise,” she mumbled.
“Who would lock a girl in here? Some people are just heartless,” he mumbled, hammering the padlocks holding the cage.
It has been held with strong magic and an ordinary boy like him can’t open it, he was hitting it with a regular hammer when only magic can set her free.
“I will take you to the hospital after this and we will report whoever kept you locked up in here, how evil can humans be,” he said as he continued hitting the padlocks.
It didn’t even look like someone was trying to break them so she put her hand in the way and he hit her fingers, blood oozed out.
His eyes widened with the sparkles generated by her blood and the padlocks scattered in pieces on the floor.
His swan his gaze to her shocked, she’d expected to see fear and panic in his eyes but I stead, she saw bravery and courage.
Impressive!
REJECTED MATE : CHAPTER 1 – 10
After a little moment, he gently opened the iron cage.
“Who locked you here?” He asked But a string of sand trickles onto his shoulder from the ceiling, he brushes it away and steps aside but it begins to fall all around him.
the floor slides jewels rattling and rolling, and he stumbles
“What’s happening,” he asks breathlessly as he climbs to his feet,
“These ruins are old, the magic that fills them has been released, no point in blending the truth but if you wish for your life then run,”
“You’re coming right? Cos there is no way I’m leaving here without you,” he grabbed her hand instantly.
Stubborn human!
fruit crashes to the ground, the air is filled with the sound of breaking glass and roaring wind, he slides down the hill and sprints through the grass, branches reach for him trying to capture his arms and neck but she pulls them away with her talents shadow hands, reach from the stream and grab his ankles. She beat them away with her wings.
The city was crumbling and he didn’t seem to be fast enough, she led him over and around the piles of Treasure through arches made of glittering sand.
The exit was not far and the walls were crashing on them with great speed, she knew that no matter how fast he was, they could never make it to the exit.
To her dismay, he scooped her off her feet, flinging her out of the cave like a football as the cave collapsed on him.
Shocked at his reaction, she threw an invisible rope at him, it caught his leg and she pulled.
He landed on the floor, breathing heavily while watching the cave crumble till it was swallowed by the earth.
“Damn girl, that was close,” he breathed, shifting his head to look at her.
“Who are you exactly? And who and what locked you in there? And why were you calling me?” He asked, staring at her.
“I appreciate your kindness in helping me, here is a little token, I hope it’s useful to you,” she opened her palm, scratched it toward him
In her hand was soul-stone, glittering like a diamond.
“Oh my goodness!” He picked it up, weighing it side by side as if it wasn’t real.
“How and where did you get this? What’s your name?” He asked, still staring at the stone.
“Lumira,” she replied
He looked up after serval minutes of checking out the stone but she was gone so she looked around in panic.
“Lumira!”
“Lumira where are you?
“Lumira!!!!” He screamed.

SOMEWHERE IN ATLANTA
“Get your f**king âss off that damn bed, Jericho! Have you lost your damn mind?” A hand slapped the person sleeping on the bed and mumbling some names which was Lumira!
“Lumira, where is she? Where is Lumira?” A guy of about 28 years yelled as he jerked up from his sleep, sitting up on the bed. He looked around.
Six eyes peered at him, staring at him as though he was out of his mind.
“What’s the time? How long have I been sleeping?” He asked no one in particular.
“Last night,” His younger brother (Brin) replied.
“Who is Lumira?” His younger sister (Aria) asked
“Dude, you need to see a doctor,” the first guy that shouted at him which is his best buddy (Zander) said.
Without uttering a word, Jericho rushed to his backpack and searched through it.
They all exchange glances.
A light sparkled around the room and he looked at them with wide eyes.
“Soulstone, no way!” Aria rushed to the living room, scattering all the books on the small old worn-out bookshelf, and then she saw it. History book.
She rushed back into the room and this time, Brin was checking the stone out while Jericho and Zander watched him. He passed the stone to Zander who held his breath.
“Good thing I have been studying, we are rich Jericho! We are super rich!” She scrolled through the pages, stopping at the particular place the stone was drawn.
“Soulstone has only been held by the queen of shapeshifters, LUMIRA….”
“Did you say Lumira?” He asked shocked.
He’s not one to believe in fiction or fairy tails but if she was a queen then why was she locked up? Oh, he was dreaming, right? But why did the stone appear here?
“Yes, Lumira! The most powerful of them all. she’s ruthless, a beast with no mercy, she was cursed 600 years ago for slaying her mate Prince Maxima….”
“Aria wait, Jericho how did you get the stone?” Zander asked curiously.
“This girl in my dream, she gave it to me after I helped her escape this cave that looked beautiful yet old….”
“And she said her name was Lumira?” Aria asked and he nodded.
“It could be her…”
“Are you high Aria? Are you f**king saying that Jericho met an ancient in his dreams?” Zander scolded.
Brin began giggling.
“Man it’s just a dream,” Zander tapped his shoulder.
“But it felt so real….”
Written by Authoress Rosy Johnson.
“Get over it, Jericho! Let’s sell the Lucky Stone and be Rich, this is what we have always wanted, or would you continue picking garbage and running around for those rich folks?” Zander asked, cutting him off.
“But….”
“But what? Are you saying this bushshit about history is true? Okay, Jericho do you believe this? It’s just a dream man!” Zander pointed out.
Yes! He was right, it was just a dream. Jericho told himself, getting off the bed.
“We will go sell it tomorrow….”
“That stone might be powerful Jericho, according to what I read so far it is worth more than money, it was held by the queen alone. The queen!” Aria said, emphasizing the last word.
“Fictional, there is no such thing, it’s just a made-up lie,” Zander tapped his shoulder and they left the room together.
His name is Jericho Deamon, 28, and jobless, he dropped out of college at twenty so he could work and pay his father’s debt and also pay his mother’s hospital bill but she died during surgery.
Since then he hasn’t been able to get a good job, Zander his best buddy is also an orphan and is 27 and also jobless.
Brin and Aria are his siblings whom he’s trying so hard to provide for, but it’s too hard so they moved from the main city to the countryside and he’s now a cowboy.
REJECTED MATE : CHAPTER 1 – 10
LAND OF FLOWERS~IN THE TIME OF MAGIC
There stood a beautiful and diverse realm, filled with forests, mountains, rivers, and oceans.
The sun shines brightly in the sky, and the stars twinkle in the night. There is also a dark side to this world, a place of shadow and danger.
Some creatures lurk in the dark, waiting for their chance to strike. But there is also magic in this world, hidden in the very air itself.
A place not known by humans.
A guy dressed in a warrior attar is seen walking briskly towards the closed door, he paused after getting close and stared at the maiden by the door.
“Is the queen busy?” He asked, his voice low but dangerous.
“Yes, My Lord,” she replied with her head down.
He glanced at the closed door before turning around.
“Tell her that I have gone hunting and I will come see her as soon as I’m back,” he walked away.
His name is Xander, the only shape-shifter warrior close to the queen aside from her handmaid and brother Jasper.
REJECTED MATE : CHAPTER 1 – 10
Meanwhile, inside the room, the crashing sound of the golden marble floor could be heard.
A feminine figure, whose face is hidden behind Veil stands before another figure who can’t be seen only the voice can be heard.
Looks like they are conversing.
“A Human! A worthless human! I waited all these years for you to bless me with a human!” She roared, her voice sending the flower vase crashing to the ground.
“It is destiny….”
“Destiny be damned!” She spats furiously, her eyes glowing with lightning which threatens to strike whoever she is speaking with down.
“I will rewrite my destiny….”
Her words were interrupted with laughter, the unseen being laughed so loud, her voice echoing around the room.
“Goddess…”
“The only thing you can do is to kîll him just the way you kîllêd your late mate,” the other person replied.
The queen sent a lightening towards her enraged, but it turned to smoke, disappearing in thin air.
“I did not kîll Maxima,” she yelled furiously.
The person left her position, cycling around the queen, and then spoke.
“You brought this upon yourself Lumira, however, the curse has been lifted and you need to find the human and bond with him to be completely free…”
“Never!!! I will never lower myself before any human, I rather choose the lowest demon slayer as my mate than a worthless human,” she rasped.
Laughter filled the air once more.
“I will find him and I will end him….”
“If he dîe by your hand, this time around I will make you suffer pain so unimaginable that even death will reject you,” was the last thing she heard till the figure disappeared.
A heavy wind blew in the room, opening all the windows and doors that were locked.
“A human!” She mumbled to herself. Pacing around the room.
“I waited this long for a weak, pathetic human!” she said to herself.
The door swung open and she didn’t bother to look back, her handmaid (Puppy) ran in.
“My queen…”
“A human!”
“A human?” Puppy was confused.
“The curse has been lifted by a human,” she completed her words.
Her handmaid’s eyes widened.
“That’s good news, my queen…”
“It’s no good news! bring me Xander!” she began walking out of her inner chamber, her handmaid hurrying behind her.
“He went hunting, my queen,” puppy said
Lumira stopped and looked at her, after staring longingly for a few minutes she began walking away.
“Send a message to my brother through the bird, there shall be no Human captive, ban all human traders, and slay all human prisoners!”
” My queen,”
“I shall never lower myself before any human!!!”
