THE BIKER ALPHA WHO BECAME MY SECOND CHANCE MATE
“You’re just like a sister to me.”
Those were the actual words that broke the camel’s back.
Not after what just happened.
Not after the hot, breathless, soul-shaking night we spent tangled in each other’s arms.
I knew from the beginning that Tristan Maverick was a line I shouldn’t cross.
He wasn’t just anyone, he was my brother’s best friend. The man I spent years secretly wanting.
But that night… we were broken. We had just buried our parents. And the grief was too heavy, too real.... so I begged him to touch me.
To make me forget. To fill the silence that death left behind.
And he did. He held me like I was something fragile.
Kissed me like I was the only thing he needed to breathe.
Then left me bleeding with six words that burned deeper than rejection ever could.
So, I ran. Away from everything that cost me pain.
Now, five years later, I’m back.
Fresh from rejecting the mate who abused me. Still carrying the scars of a pup I never got to hold.
And the man waiting for me at the airport isn’t my brother.
It’s Tristan.
And he's not the guy I left behind.
He's a biker.
An Alpha.
And when he looked at me, I knew there was no where else to run to.

Chapter: 70 NOTHING OR NO ONE CAN MAKE ME GIVE THIS UP.Chapter 70Athena's POV There, parked right in front of the main entrance in a spot I couldn't possibly miss, was a motorcycle that sat like a goddess herself.A pink bike.My heart leaped with pure joy as I stared at the pink and purple machine that I'd always dreamed of owning. The colors swirled together like cotton candy and sunset, with chrome details that caught the light and made the whole thing sparkle.How did he know I loved pink and purple? My mouth opened and closed like a fish as I searched for words that could possibly express what I was feeling."Oh my God. This is..." I couldn't finish the sentence. There weren't words big enough.Derek stood nearby with a proud smile spreading across his face, clearly pleased with my reaction. He knew he'd gotten me good."You like it?" he asked, though my expression probably made the question unnecessary."Like it?" I said in a slow, wondering tone. "I love it. I absolutely love it.""How? When? I thought you said you wanted to lend

Chapter: 69 WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL Athena's POVChapter 69It had been three days since I'd moved into my new place, and they had been some of the most peaceful days I'd experienced in years.I'd worried I wouldn't be able to sleep that first night, surrounded by unfamiliar sounds and shadows, but my body had surprised me. Maybe it was the exhaustion from moving, or maybe it was the simple relief of having my own space, but I'd slept deeply and dreamlessly. The kind of sleep that actually restored you instead of leaving you more tired than when you went to bed.My morning routine had become something I genuinely looked forward to. Making coffee in my own kitchen, choosing what to wear without worrying about anyone else's opinion, stepping out onto my small balcony to check the weather. These tiny acts of independence felt like small victories.The commute to work wasn't bad either. My apartment was close enough to the office that the cab ride was short and affordable. I still hadn't gotten the car I wanted, though I

Chapter: 68 JESS WAS AND IS MY CHOSEN MATEChapter 68 Tristan's POV"Athena, I think he likes you."The words hit me like a sledgehammer to the chest. There was no need to ask for details. We all knew exactly who Leah was talking about. The pretty boy with his perfect smile and his homemade cookies.I raised an eyebrow, trying to look casual while my insides twisted into knots. He liked her. After knowing her for all of five minutes, this stranger had decided he was interested in my...In Athena. Not my anything. Just Athena."She's beautiful. I'm not surprised," my wolf said unhelpfully in the back of my mind.Thanks for that. Really what I needed to hear right now."What are you talking about?" Orion asked, his eyebrow raised and his tone sharp.I felt a surge of gratitude toward him. At least one of us was sensible enough to be suspicious of some random guy showing up with baked goods and movie-star looks. Even though it shouldn't matter to me what Athena did or didn't do, at least Orion would keep her safe."Don't mind

Chapter: 67 ATHENA, I THINK HE LIKES YOUChapter 67 "Of course not," I said quickly, maybe too quickly judging by Sarah's mischievous smile. "What Sarah meant is that I'm not ready to enter into another relationship. I'm focusing on myself right now.""Right, that's exactly what I meant," Sarah agreed, but her grin suggested she was thinking something entirely different."And I'm sure the guy isn't even that handsome," I was saying when a knock interrupted us."It's open," I called out, assuming it was Tristan or Orion returning from their store run.Instead, a head I didn't recognize poked through the doorway, and I felt my mouth fall open in surprise. Sarah had the same stunned expression, and I could practically hear Leah's internal "I told you so."The man was, without question, incredibly attractive. Not just handsome, but the kind of beautiful that made you forget what you were saying mid-sentence."I'm sorry for intruding like this," he said, and his voice matched his appearance perfectly. Deep, smooth, with just a

Chapter: 66 IS THERE SOMEONE YOU LIKE?Chapter 66 Athena's POVOver the next few days, I threw myself into the mission of creating a home from nothing.It was harder than I'd expected. I'd never realized how many little things went into making a place livable until I was standing in an empty apartment with a notepad, trying to remember if I needed a can opener or already had one. The truth was, I had nothing. Daxon had made sure of that when I left.Sarah and Leah both volunteered to help, and I couldn't bring myself to say no. Having their company made the overwhelming task feel more manageable, and their excitement about my independence was infectious. We spent hours wandering through furniture stores and home goods shops, debating the merits of different coffee makers and whether I really needed matching dish towels."You absolutely need matching towels," Leah insisted, holding up a set in sage green. "It's the little touches that make a place feel like home."Sarah laughed, shifting her purse to her other shoulder.

Chapter: 65 THIS WAS THE BEGINNING OF SOMETHING NEWChapter 65 Athena's POV The silence that followed was thick. Orion's fork stopped halfway to his mouth, and Tristan went completely still."What..... do you mean?" Orion asked in a low soft tone."I mean I want to find my own apartment. Be independent. I can't live with Tristan forever.""You can live with me as long as you want," Tristan said quietly. I looked at him directly then, keeping my voice steady and my smile in place. "That's very kind of you bro, but I think it's time I stood on my own two feet. I've been dependent on other people for too long." I could see his jaw tightened but I acted like I notice."Athena, you don't have to do this," Orion said, concern creeping into his voice. "If something's wrong...""Nothing's wrong. Tristan has been such a supportive elder brother..." The words tasted bitter in my mouth, and I saw Tristan's eyebrow raise slightly. Calling him that felt like shooting myself in the foot, but that was what he was. "I just think it's time for me

THE SPITEFUL BRIDE: Marry To Rival's Son
Stefan raises a skeptical brow."And why would I do that?" His voice was low, like a warning, and it made her shiver even though she tried not to show it.
"We both have one thing in common," Mia continues, her gaze unwavering."Shitty fathers. A pointed pause hangs in the air."The only difference between us is that you are an illegitimate child, and I am not". Stefan studies her, the heiress in her designer armor, the fire in her eyes that matches the burn of his own rage.
"That's your solution? A wedding band as a weapon?" He said ignoring the part where she just referred to him as an illegitimate child.
"The only weapon they will not see coming". She steps closer, close enough for him to catch the scent of her perfume, gunpowder and jasmine."Our fathers stole our birthrights. Then, Stefan's mouth curves into something sharp.
"One condition," he murmurs, closing the distance."No divorces. If we are doing this, it's for life"
"Deal" Mia said without missing a beat. She would not give him the pleasure, she would destroy her life as she seems fit

Chapter: 108 THE FUTURE OF THE CONSTRUCTION WORLDChapter 108Mia stood in front of the mirror, as they adjusted the last part of her dress. For a second, she didn’t recognize the reflection staring back at her.The gown was everything. Luxurious. Bold. Feminine.It was a deep emerald green, made from soft velvet that clung perfectly to her body without trying too hard. The strapless neckline curved into a sweetheart shape, showing off her collarbones and shoulders in the most flattering way. The dress hugged her figure down to her knees before flaring out into a dramatic fishtail that trailed softly behind her.The details were even more stunning up close.... delicate hand embroidery ran along the fabric like vines, and the design was studded with tiny beads and shimmering stones that caught the light whenever she moved.Attached to the back was a removable train made of light tulle and silk. It flowed like a cape and added that extra drama for when she needed to make an entrance.... or give a speech. She could clip it on or off as

Chapter: 107 A REVENGE THAT WAS ALMOST READY.Chapter 107If there was one thing Mia had learned early in business, it was this: sometimes, silence speaks louder than any press conference.And that was exactly the card she and Stefan were playing.From the moment they returned to Manhattan, it began. The cold shoulders, the missed eye contact, the subtle but obvious distance. They turned the penthouse into a cold battlefield, making sure even the walls had something to whisper about. Stefan would enter a room, and Mia would leave. Mia would eat in the dining room, and Stefan would take his meal in the office. Conversations were sparse, professional at best, and laced with unspoken tension. The perfect show for their audience. Though, staying away from each other was the last thing both of them wanted.... but they knew they had to sacrifice to gain something. And the audience? Well, they were watching.Whispers among the staff turned into full-blown gossip. The housekeepers began exchanging glances. The assistant chef who once p

Chapter: 106 I’VE GOT ONE TOOChapter 106Stefan didn’t let go of her immediately, when he finally eased back, his hand stayed on her waist.His eyes were on her.... soft but intense. Then, without a word, he leaned in and pressed a kiss to her forehead. Gentle. Reassuring. Like a promise. A promise to always protect from people like her dad who only sees her as a tool.Mia closed her eyes. Letting the sensation of the kiss evolve her.Then Stefan looked down at her... at the small, faint scars now exposed where her shirt had ridden up slightly. His fingers brushed over them gently, then without saying a word, he leaned down and kissed one.Mia breath hitched. She never expected Stefan to kiss her scar. A scar she's always been ashamed of. She as always seen it as what it was. A scar. She didn’t move, just stared at him with astonishment.His lips touched her damaged skin like it was made of something precious.When he looked back up, her eyes were wide, staring at him. He then raised his head and placed a quick k

Chapter: 105 THE SCARS SHE HIDChapter 105“I did it,” she repeated, a little louder this time. “I hurt myself.”"Why? Why..... Would you hurt yourself this way?" Shock was written clearly all over his face."Because at that time, it was the only option I had. So I thought." Stefan stared at her speechless, waiting for her to continue.Mia sighed before sitting up slowly, wrapping the sheets around her chest as if they could protect her from what she was about to relive. Stefan sat beside her, his back straight, his eyes never leaving her face. He could see something was coming, something deep. Something painful. And he was ready to let her share all of it with her."After my mom died," Mia began quietly, her voice a near whisper. "Everything changed so fast. One minute I was her little girl, and the next... she was gone. My dad sent me abroad right after her funeral. Said I needed time, and that he wanted me to stay out of everything. Like I was a reminder he didn’t want around."Stefan didn’t say anything. He did

Chapter: 104 SHE HAD DONE THESE TO HERSELFChapter 104The next day, Stefan stood near the window, bare-chested, his phone in hand, staring at the screen like it held the weight of the world.Mose had sent him the video just twenty minutes ago. And he had watched every second.He saw himself at the bar.... relaxed, a soft smile playing on his lips. That was a huge alliance, and he wanted to act his best.Then the drink. He saw as the pill was dropped in his drink. By who and the look they gave themselves. He could still remember how it all happened.It was a moment of distraction, a lady had sat on his lap. She was an escort sent to keep him company, but he had politely turned her down. That was when they dropped the pill.He watched as his own body slumped forward, completely unaware of what was done to him.He saw the men drag him out the back like some trash. Saw how they moved fast, like it was rehearsed. Not after asking the escort to act like they were kissing, and then the picture sent to her was taken.At the hotel, th

Chapter: 103 I NEED YOU STEFAN Chapter 103The kiss was different. It was wild. They kissed each other like they had both been starved.Mia’s fingers curled into Stefan’s shirt, gripping the fabric like she was afraid to fall.... but she already had. A long time ago.Stefan’s hands moved gently, one holding her waist like she might slip away again, the other rising to cradle the back of her head. Their bodies fit like two pieces of a puzzle that had spent too long apart.When their lips finally parted, their foreheads touched. They were both breathless.Mia’s lashes fluttered as her eyes slowly opened. She found his eyes already waiting.... his gaze were intent, burning with questions and answers all at once.... they undid her.“Mia,” Stefan whispered, his thumb brushing against her cheek, “I don’t know what I did… but if I’ve ever hurt you — even without meaning to..... I’m sorry. I beg you. Please forgive me.” Her eyes welled up, she blinked the tears away immediately.She bit her bottom lip, holding herself toge
