Scorned: The Rebirth of Kaidaira
Zarek's laughter cut me off, a harsh jeering sound. "Sacrifices?" he repeated, his voice oozing disdain. "You think killing your own brother was a sacrifice? You did that for me, didn't you, Kaidaira?"
I felt the weight of my heart as it sank to the anchors of despair. "Yes," I whispered, the memory of that night flooding through my mind. "I did it to protect you-to protect our pack."
Zarek was grinning from ear to ear. "And now, that same pack will profit from your sale. Poetic, don't you think?"
I felt a chill dread creeping over me. "You used me,"
Zarek shrugged. "You were useful. Now you're not."
~~~~~~~~~
Being sold off by the one man you loved the most would leave any woman maimed for life..
In a world where fate and ruin are intertwined, one such fate will forever bind Kaidaira to the pack she has sworn to protect. But her heart belongs to Thane-an alpha, mysterious and brooding, who once stood on the receiving end of her blade.
Torn between loyalty, love, and revenge, Kaidaira must choose: protect her pack or surrender to the all-consuming passion binding her to Thane. But one fact will not take long to be made clear as the darkness deepens, their love can definitely prove to be the one thing to bring about their doom.
Thane was the only one who could defy the odds and save Kaidaira from herself, but will their bond survive against this encroaching darkness, or is this a love which has been forever entwined in a curse that will now claim them in its dance of self-destruction?
No power greater, than that of a scorned woman.

Chapter: Chapter 105Kaidaira POVI was so shocked by what she said. She want to sell me back to Alpha Thane's pack. This can't be happening to me. Yet again I am nothing more than a commodity for sell. Why was life so cruel to me. “Have I done something so unforgivable that the moon goddess decides to punish me this way?” I asked myself.“I can't go back to Alpha Thane's pack” I screamed as everyone diverted their attention to me. The old woman gave me a stern look before turning to face the Alpha.“You either have to go back to Thane's pack or you die” Alpha Rashid said without mercy.All my hope was shattered before me, going back to Thane's pack is the same thing as death.“Send a message to Alpha Thane's that wwe are returning his slave back to him and it's coming with a price” Alpha Rashid back out orders to one of the general.“Sir what if he doesn't complies with us” one of them asked.“Then we would kill her” he said as if he was talking about kill an animal or something.I couldn't do anything

What does she mean by lies no one in tgis pack knows that Thane is the father of my child except lady Akira.But I know lady Akira won't say anything since she was trying to protect her family“What do you mean by lies?” One of the council members asked. “The child is not for any man, the child is for Alpha Thane” she said making me and Lady Akira look at each other in shock.I cover my shock expression up and tried to act tough. “Who is this Alpha Thane you are talking about?” I asked keeping my most innocent face. Like I was just hearing the name that made me scared and gave me butterflies for the first time.“I heard you when you were confessing to Lady Akira about the father of your child three days ago” she said making me shiver in fear.So Ismail had someone spy on us when my mother came to visit the other day. I was so foolish how cou

Chapter: chapter 103Chapter 103Kaidaira's POV When Thane finally calmed down, his voice was lower. He looked at me with fire in his eyes, but it wasn't anger, it was something else. "I’ll look into this," he said. "I’ll call the warriors, we’ll figure this out and thank you."He placed a kiss on my cheeks then he turned and walked toward the door."I’ll see you later," he said before leaving the room.As soon as the door closed behind him, I felt a rush of excitement in my chest. I did it. He believed it, my plan was working.I smiled to myself, holding back the laugh that wanted to escape. I turned quickly and walked out of his chambers, heading straight to my room.The moment I stepped in, my maids turned to me with wide eyes."You look happy, my lady," Isis said, stepping forward."I have good news," I said, barely able to hold it in. "He believed the evidence, he thinks Rashid is planning an attack."Their eyes lit up."Already?" Kiya whispered, her voice hushed so as not to draw the attention o

Chapter: chapter 102Chapter 102Alpha Thane's POV The walls of my chambers closed in around me like a tomb. I paced back and forth, my mind scattered.Where was she?The sun had begun to set an dshe wasn't back yet.I clenched my jaw and turned again, running a hand through my hair. I’d told myself not to panic. What if something happened to her?She hadn’t said where she was going this morning. Only that she had something to do, and her eyes, those seductive eyes had dared me to ask but I didn’t. I let her go.And now she was gone.I stopped near the table and picked up the cup of water that had long since gone warm. My throat was dry, but I didn’t drink. I couldn’t. Not until I knew where she was, not until she returned.I wasn’t used to this, the worry, the waiting. It clawed at me worse than any enemy ever had. I had experienced it once and I will never hope to again.Kaidaira had become a constant in my life again, a fire I could not tame, and I didn’t want to. But gods, she made it difficult not

Chapter: chapter 101Chapter 101Kaidaira's POV The deception I was weaving had to be flawless. Thane had to believe that Alpha Rashid was planning to betray him. Because if he believed it if I could place doubt in his heart, it would set the foundation I needed. Not just for my vengeance on those who’d wronged me, but to bring down everything they’d built from the inside out.And Thane… gods, he still loved me.That love was both my weapon and my curse.I urged the horse harder, past the canyon ridge where border scouts were often stationed, toward the stretch of valley that touched the outermost lines of neutral territory. It wasn’t patrolled as often. It was lawless enough to cover my tracks, and isolated enough to stage what I needed.A betrayal.An invisible threat.And a trail that led back to Rashid.I’d spent the night imagining it—replaying every whispered rumor I’d heard during my time in hiding, every piece of intel I gathered from staying in Rashid's god forsaken palace.Alpha Rashid kept his

Chapter: chapter 100Alpha Thane's POVKaidaira lay against me, her head resting on my chest her fingers traced slow, lazy circles over my chest, and though neither of us said a word, the silence between us felt... different.Not uncomfortable but heavy.I ran a hand through her hair, the scent of jasmine clung to her skin, blending with the faint hint of sweat and sex. I couldn’t stop touching her. Holding her. Breathing her in.If I had my way, I’d keep her in this bed forever. Away from the palace, away from the Calantha and her father, away from everything that threatened to tear us apart.She shifted slightly, her hand now laying flat over my heart. Her eyes lifted to meet mine."Thane?" She mumbled.I kissed her forehead. "Hmm?""I need to tell you something."I froze.My fingers stilled in her hair. My breath caught for just a second.That sentence, those words, they always led to change and I wasn’t ready for anything to change.I tried to play it cool, brushing my thumb along her shoulder. "Tell

Chapter: Bonus Chapter."Well," King murmured, a slow grin spreading across his face as he surveyed the scene of disarray, "it appears we've encountered a rather… bed-related predicament." His voice held a playful note, a lingering echo of the passion that had consumed them just hours before.Laura stirred beside him, her eyelids fluttering open to reveal eyes still glazed with the memory of their shared ecstasy. She stretched languidly, her body arching with a grace that made King's breath catch in his throat, and a soft, contented sigh escaped her lips. A smile, radiant and undeniably sensual, bloomed on her face as she took in the chaotic beauty of their surroundings. "You could certainly say we… rocked it, Mr. McGorrith," she replied, her voice a husky whisper that sent a shiver of renewed desire through him.King chuckled, the sound deep and resonant, a vibration that seemed to resonate within the very core of his being. He propped himself up on one elbow, his gaze fixed on Laura, utterly captivated by th

Chapter: chapter 144Later, as the night drew to a close, they found themselves alone on the balcony, the city lights twinkling below, a million tiny stars mirroring the stars in their eyes. Laura turned to him, her eyes shining with a secret, a beautiful, terrifying secret."Babe.," she said, her voice trembling slightly, "there's something I want to tell you."He looked at her, his expression a mixture of love and concern, his hand gently caressing her cheek. "What is it, my love?"She took a deep breath, her hands clasped in front of her, her heart pounding against her ribs. "Remember how we… how we talked about…"Her voice trailed off, and King's heart clenched. He knew what she was going to say. Their baby girl. The little life they had lost too soon. The memory of that loss was a scar on their hearts, a reminder of the fragility of happiness. A shared pain that bound them together, a silent understanding that transcended words."Our baby," King said softly, his voice filled with a bittersweet ache,

Chapter: chapter 143The ceremony was a grand affair, attended by high-ranking dignitaries, influential business leaders, and members of the elite. The McGorrith name carried significant weight; McGorrith Holdings was a multi-billion dollar empire, and this wedding was a testament to their power and prestige. But for King, the only person who mattered was the woman walking towards him, her beauty eclipsing even the grandeur of the occasion. King looked around, amazed at the love he was surrounded with. He spotted detective Marshal by the far end ,smiling at him and giving him an encouraging thumb ups. King responded with a curt nod.He won.When it was his turn to speak, he looked at Laura, his eyes shining with a love that transcended words. He took her hand, his fingers intertwining with hers, and began to speak, his voice thick with emotion, raw and honest."Laura, my love" he said, his voice cracking slightly, "I stand here today, a man transformed. You came into my life like a whirlwind, a force of n

Chapter: Chapter 142"Lu, you are actually glowing," Maddie, or Madds as Laura affectionately called her, exclaimed, her eyes wide with admiration. She adjusted a stray piece of lace on Laura's impossibly long train, her fingers lingering on the delicate fabric. "Like, ethereal goddess glowing. If I wasn't entirely devoted to chaos and my darling wife, I'd be jealous."Laura laughed, a sound that was both nervous and joyous, a melody that always made King's heart sing. "You always know the right thing to say, Madds. Though, 'ethereal goddess' might be a slight exaggeration.""Exaggeration? Please. You look like a painting. A really, really expensive painting. One that should be in a museum, preferably under heavy guard, because King is going to lose his mind. And probably do something ridiculously possessive." Maddie grinned, her pink hair a vibrant contrast to the soft, ivory of Laura's dress. "Speaking of His Royal Hotness, you ready for this? Big day, big emotions, big dress. And an even bigger… well,

Chapter: chapter 141The roar of the airplane engines faded as the plane taxied to a stop. Laura felt a mix of excitement and nervous anticipation bubbling inside her. She hadn't been back in New York City in what felt like a lifetime. She'd missed the chaotic energy, the familiar faces, and the slightly-too-strong coffee from Café Flores. But most of all, she'd missed him.As the passengers began to disembark, Laura's eyes scanned the crowd gathered at the gate. She spotted Maddie first, waving her arms enthusiastically, her bright pink hair a beacon in the sea of people. Beside her stood Dave, looking healthier and happier than she'd seen him in years, a wide grin on his face. And then there was King.He leaned against a pillar, trying to look casual, but his intense gaze gave him away. He was dressed in his usual impeccably tailored suit, but there was a softness in his eyes that Laura had only ever seen when he looked at her. He looked… breathtaking. And incredibly, incredibly happy.Laura's heart did

Chapter: chapter 140Laura sprinted back to the house, nearly tripping over her robe. She burst into the studio, where King was now sitting up on the futon, looking slightly less like a content cat and more like a confused bear."You will not believe what just happened!" Laura shrieked, waving the letter in the air.King blinked, clearly not fully awake. "Did you win the lottery? Because if you won the lottery, I call dibs on that really nice art set I saw…""Better than the lottery!" Laura exclaimed. "My dad! He's okay! He beat cancer!"King's eyes widened. He was instantly awake now, all traces of sleep gone. "That's… that's amazing, babyyy! That's incredible!" He reached for her, pulling her into a tight hug.Laura hugged him back, squeezing him with all her might. "I know! And that's not even the best part!""There's more?" King asked, pulling back slightly, his eyebrows raised.Laura grinned, grabbing his hand and pulling him up from the futon. "Come on, I have to call Maddie! You can listen!"She dr
