A Mate Bond Hidden Under The Moonlight
Being unmated for a long time, Alpha Ryan, whose life is one of duty and control, locked his heart away from the world to achieve that.
For years, he's avoided the mate bond, dismissing the idea of love as a weakness and an obstacle to achieving everything he had dreamt of. But during one of the routine peace ceremonies, everything changes. He felt a mate bond, one he was so desperately ready to reject despite the strong pull he felt. But the very moment he's faced with his mate, a lowly male servant, an omega who looked lost and vulnerable, it triggered something within him. Something he thought he wasn't able to feel and that gave birth to a hidden affair, one he was willing to even risk everything, including his life for.
Yes their bond was forbidden and cursed centuries ago, but he was willing to bear the consequences.

Chapter: Tethered In The MoonlightETHAN'S POV I woke up to my family around me except Aldan. Lilly looked... Scared and sad at the same time. "What happened?" I asked confused. "Something's bound to you alright." She responded as she took the piece of cloth that was placed on my forehead. "What?" I asked, my eyes widening in fear. "Something, I can't really explain but it didn't feel dangerous when I got to communicate with it." "I don't understand what you're saying, I don't even have a wolf so what could I be bounded to?" I asked as I sat up. "I can't tell but whatever is so strongly bound to you, is different from the cursed wolf I know about, maybe Mom did something that day." "I'm so confused right now." Jasmine interrupted. "Everything you did still pointed at the fact he had a hand in mom's death, the cursed wolf is bound to him right? And..." "He didn't." Lilly cuts in. "I saw what happened that day." She added before leaving the room with teary eyes. I immediately tried to stand on

Chapter: How She Died (2)ETHAN'S POVThe room fell silent for a moment."Why the tears?" Lilly asked in a harsher tone."He's once again denying killing Mom." Jasmine responded.I shook my head violently, wiping at my tears. “No, Jasmine. You don’t understand. That’s not what happened that day at the river.”She folded her arms, glaring, her wolf aura already surfacing, trying to make me cower. Lilly walked in.“You think I’d forget the fact Mom drown because of you?” Jasmine hissed.I lifted my head, and for the first time in years, I let the words spill out. “She didn’t drown because of me. She drowned because something pulled her under.”Both their eyes flickered.“Again with the lies." Jasmine scoffed.I swallowed, forcing myself to meet their gazes. “I fell into the river, yes… but there was something there. A shadow. A wolf...no, not a wolf, not like us. Its eyes were bloody red, and it kept whispering in my head."Jasmine scoffed, but there was a tremor in her voice. “Stop making up stories, Ethan.”“I

I smiled.In no time we got to my place.My step sisters were outside, the moment they saw me, their expression changed.I couldn't read it, but I know they're definitely not happy to see me.I waved Lysa a goodbye even though she wanted me to introduce her to my family.As I took a step in I met my step dad."Where are the coins?" He barked."I...I don't have any?" I stammered taking a step back.The way his eyes darkened made my heart beat intensify. His voice, heavy with rage as he took a step closer."You're more useless than I thought!" he spat, his breath hot with the stench of ale. His hand gripped my collar so hard the fabric cut into my neck."I wasn’t given any coins," I tried to explain, my voice trembling."You spent days in the palace only to return with nothing." He spat as he gave me an unexpecting s

I didn't get any orders from Alpha Ryan and Lysa was late.To pass the time, I helped mistress Alira clean everywhere while I waited for Lysa.While I was mopping the floor, Lysa walked in.Seeing her, my face immediately lit up."I thought you won't be coming in today." I said with a smile as I dropped the wooden mop and walked up to her."My mate fell ill, and I was attending to him all morning." She sighed.Is Mistress Alira here?" She asked glancing around. "She stepped out a while ago." I responded."Oh that's a relief. I hope she doesn't get mad at me." She muttered as she rolled her hair up."She was so mad you were running late." I joked.She rolled her sleeves up and said, “Hand me that,” taking the mop to finish what I had started.Once she was done, she checked on some of the patients, attended to the ones that needed her before she met me seated on my bed.I was so lost in thought to notice her presence.“What’s on your mind?” s

Chapter: Silent Struggles ETHAN'S POVHis arms slowly wrapped around my waist and while I stood frozen, the pain I felt subsided.I was yet again confused."How... how do you do that?" I managed to ask.He quickly pulled away from me."By tomorrow, I will send for you when I need you." He said before leaving me alone to my confused thoughts.The moment he left, I sat quietly on my bed trying to understand what just happened. "Only a mate is supposed to do that." I muttered.I remember vividly the day I got to know about that.My step sister Lilly had fallen from the table, I think I was about fifteen.I had barely caught her as she fell, but she still had a little sprain on her ankle as a result.She cried softly while I massaged her feet, trying to ease the pain.At that moment, Jasmine walked in."What happened?" She asked as she walked up to us."I fell." Lilly cried.Jasmine sat down beside her."Don't worry, when you get your mate you wouldn't have to worry about the pains from your clumsiness anymore."

Chapter: This Sweet Version Of HimTHIRD PERSON'S POV Carly stared at the shower head, the water flowing down her body doing little to cool the embarrassment she felt. She peeked around the bathroom, silently praying for some miraculous discovery of a spare towel. No luck."Damn it!" She cursed.With a deep breath, she tried to gather her courage. "Just ask him. It’s no big deal." She mutters to herself, but the idea of Alessandro seeing her in this naked state made her stomach churn."It's not like he hasn't seen you naked a lot of times." She assured herself.As she turned the water off and walked slowly towards the door."No, no, no." She said, repeatedly walking back."Oh wait, I will just show my head."

His voice sent shivers down my spine.My eyes widened in fear maybe, but I wasn't that afraid, I was mostly shocked.Stay? Why does he want me to stay? My heart was racing, and I wasn’t sure if I could trust my legs to keep me standing.“Sandro…” I began, my voice barely above a whisper.He didn’t let go of my hand. Instead, he pulled me closer to himself gently. His intense gaze was fixed on mine, and for a moment, I couldn’t breathe. The way he looked at me wasn’t like before. It wasn’t just concern or obligation; or even this look he always gives me that made me feel more like a burden, it was something deeper, something I didn’t dare hope for.“Why do you always run from me?” he asked softly, his voice low and captivating.“I’m not running,” I replied, my voice shaky as I tried to look away.“You are,” he countered, his fingers brushing against mine as he held my hand tigh
