I Rejected My Obsessive Werebeast novel Chapter 15

Chapter 15

Aurora’s POV

The officials grabbed Connor by both arms.

“No, wait!” he shouted, struggling against the officials‘ grip. “Aurora! Are you really going to do this to me? You are just going to give up on

everything we have?”

His eyes were fixed on me, desperate and broken. I had never seen him like this.

I felt a spasm of pain in my chest. But still, it didn’t change anything.

I had really given up on Connor.

One of the officials frowned and said coldly, “Connor, your previous owner has already submitted the evidence of contract violation. According to the Werebeast Administration Bureau’s regulation, you are now under temporary custody until your case is reviewed.”

“Get your hands off me,” Connor snapped. His tail lashed behind him, and his ears flattened against his hair. “I didn’t violate anything! I didn’t betray Aurora. I just–I just wanted her to care about me!”

“Take him away, please,” I said, my voice slightly shaking.

“No! Aurora!”

The officials dragged him toward the van. Connor fought hard at first, but one of the officials pressed a control band against his wrist. The silver bracelet snapped shut with a sharp click.

s face twisted in panic as he realized he couldn’t break free anymore.

Then he suddenly turned to look at me, his eyes wild and obsessive.

“Don’t think you can get rid of me like this,” he shouted, breathing heavily. “Just wait, Aurora, you are mine.”

The van door slid open. Connor was pushed inside.

I had just let out a small sigh of relief with sadness still stinging in my chest, when Phoebe suddenly screamed-

“You bitch!”

Everyone turned toward her.

Her whole body was shaking. Her eyes were bloodshot, and tears streamed down her face, ruining her makeup even more.

“You did this on purpose!” she shrieked at me. “You planned all of this! You made Connor hate me! You ruined my life!”

I stared at her icily. Was she serious?

After everything she had done to me, she still had the nerve to say I ruined her life?

I let out a quiet laugh.

That seemed to enrage her even more.

“What are you laughing at?” she screamed. “You think you won? You

think you’re better than me just because you got an S–rank werebeast? No, you’re still the same pathetic girl nobody wanted!”

Silas’s hand tightened around my shoulder. A low growl rolled from his chest, deep and dangerous.

But I gently touched his wrist.

“It’s fine,” I said.

Then I looked back at Phoebe.

“You keep saying I’m pathetic,” I said calmly. “But Phoebe, have you ever really won against me?”

Her face twisted. “Of course I have! I took everything from you!”

“No,” I said. “You took everything I was willing to let go. You didn’t steal my treasure, Phoebe. You collected my trash.”

Phoebe’s lips parted. Her face went from red to white and then red again.

“You-”

Yet I didn’t give her a chance to say anything else. I went back into the house and slammed the door behind me.

This morning had been so wonderful and peacefully and dreamy. I woke up by Silas’s side and I was going to cook for him. Everything was perfect.

Until they ruined it.

I suddenly felt very tired.

Silas noticed. He turned around and pulled me into his arms. His hug was warm and tight. I felt very safe.

“Is there anything I can do to make you feel better?” he murmured against

wrapped my arms around his waist and thought for a few seconds. “Is there anything you like to do when you’re free? Like a hobby?”

“I like cars. Racing. Running the tracks. I once thought about becoming a racer and-”

He stopped abruptly and gave me an apologetic smile. “Sorry. I didn’t mean to say that.”

I knew why he was apologizing. In our world, owners usually take care of their werebeasts. And most of them didn’t like their werebeasts to work.

“There’s a racetrack hiring werebeasts for security and test–driving assistant work,” I said to him, watching his eyes lit up. “Predatory werebeasts have fast reflexes. You want to give it a shot?”

He held his breath. His ears moved slightly. “You serious?”

“Yeah, let’s do it tomorrow,” I grinned. “You can pursue your dream, Silas. I like that about you.”

His eyes gleamed gorgeously. Then he cupped my face and pressed his lips on mine.

The next morning, I drove Silas to the racetrack.

The sound of engines roared through the air the moment we got close. Bright racing cars shot past the track like flashes of light, leaving behind the smell of fuel and hot rubber.

When we walked into the staff area, several werebeasts immediately looked over.
