Chapter: 187AVAIt’s been three days since the incident, three days of dreams I can’t piece together. Three nights of visions that slip through my fingers the moment I wake. Voices. Screams. The same chant over and over. But this time, it's not clearer. Scenes of Selene. Begging. Pleading to be forgiven. Her voice filled with desperation. And then, water. She’s drowning, her body going still, lifeless.I don’t know what’s worse, the fact that I’m seeing this, or the fact that I can’t make sense of why it’s happening to me. The visions blur like smoke, and yet they feel too real to dismiss.I Meanwhile, Nicklaus’s lawyer is still busy hammering out stipulations on the contract. Legal jargon and terms that don’t make my head ache any less. And still, i have to keep showing up at work, plastering on a face, pretending Fernando doesn’t want me six feet under. Afterall they say, Fear is a murderer with patience; awareness just pulls the trigger faster.I push my way through the stairs and the busy bo

Chapter: 186AVAI don’t know why I feel so overly confident when my idea is stupid. Seriously, how does going to a place where someone died years ago solve anything?Nicklaus’ hand closes around mine as he leads me to the car I came with. His jaw is tight, but his grip, steady, grounding.He glances at me, voice that speaks disbelief. “You’re quite a handful… How the hell did you even find Georgia and convince her to bring you here?”I slide into the passenger seat, buckling up like I own the ride. “You told me her phone number was in the envelope, so I sorted it out.”His brows snap together. “And stole my phone? What are you now, a thief?”I smirk at his poor attempt at humor, leaning back. “You weren’t going to tell me about it. A girl’s gotta do what she’s gotta do.” I roll my eyes for good measure.I roll my eyes, smirking at him. “You’re so damn lucky you’ve got my heart. And luckier still that I’m not the Ava you first met, because trust me, I would’ve dumped your ass, mate or not.”He sho

Chapter: 185AVAMy heart is still thumping from the piece I just put together, when suddenly, there’s a rustle at the door.I freeze.Georgia’s eyes snap to mine, wide and questioning.“I didn’t bring anybody, I swear,” I whisper, my throat dry.The handle twists, the door creaks open, and I almost scream at the top of my lungs.Nicklaus. Busted."Ava?"Y’know that moment when you’re staring at someone you love, but it suddenly hits you he might actually be a murderer? Yeah, that’s me right now—hands clammy, heart racing, eyes desperate for an answer."Leave us." His eyes don’t leave mine, but I know he’s talking to Georgia.Georgia gulps, gives me one last nervous glance, and slips out, the door clicking shut behind her. Now it’s just me and him.My heart keeps screaming he’s my Nicklaus, but my brain won’t stop whispering the odds are stacked against him.One step. Two steps. I inch back."Please," my voice cracks, "tell me you didn’t do it."He swallows hard, his gaze still pinned on me. The s

Chapter: 184AVAYou know that feeling when the air gets punched right out of your lungs? Yeah, that’s me right now. Selene. The name stares back at me from the screen like it’s laughing at me, daring me to connect the dots.It’s wild, how your brain kicks into overdrive when you’re chasing secrets. I swear I feel almost superhuman, every detail clearer, every clue glowing brighter, as if the universe itself wants me to solve the mystery my mate refuses to tell me.Georgia clicks on the girl’s profile picture, and my stomach knots. It’s her, the same blonde. They definitely talked, but the chat history is wiped clean, Nicklaus must have deleted it.Sure, this feels like a crumb of evidence that they talked, but crumbs won’t cut it. I need more. I need something solid, concrete, something that tells me what really went down. A clue. A hint. A fight. Anything that can drag me closer to cracking this wide open.“So, what do we do now?” I ask, watching Georgia’s face stay locked on the screen. Her fin

My chest is tight, my thoughts are spiraling, and all I can see is that damn picture. Part of me wants to call Fernando and demand why the hell he sent it, and the other part wants to hunt down Nicklaus and shove it in his face.And what do you even do when your mate shuts you out right after an intense make-out? Cry behind closed doors? Beg to be seen? Beg to be heard?Not me. That’s not fucking me.I’ve got one plan and one plan only: find Georgia.I step into the bathroom, run a warm bath, and let the water cascade down my body. If only it could seep into my chest and wash away the hurt lodged there.I hate what Nicklaus is turning me into, a vulnerable, weak mess. I used to be strong. I used to kick ass. I was always the girl who dished out the silent treatment, dumped stupid assholes, and walked away from shitty relationships without blinking.But right now?

Chapter: 182AVANicklaus presses a firm kiss against my forehead, lingering like he’s trying to erase the thought before it roots too deep. His hand slips behind my head, keeping me tucked against his chest.“Don’t do this to yourself now,” he murmurs, voice low and rough with something I can’t quite place. “You’re drained, Ava. I won’t let you dig into old wounds when your body’s begging for peace.”His thumb traces along my jaw, gentle but deliberate, tilting my face until his eyes catch mine. “Rest first. Eat. Breathe. Let me carry the weight of the past for now.”Before I can argue, his lips brush my temple, warm and lingering, his arms wrapping tighter around me like he dares me to push for more.I shove away from him, standing so fast the blanket slips off my shoulders. Nicklaus moves like he’s about to reach for me again, to pull me back into his iron grip, but I step out of range before he can pin me down. My pulse is hammering, and yeah, maybe I’m acting childish, but screw it—I’m alread

Bound By A Dare, Rejected By The Alpha
"You're going to take it, aren't you, little lamb?" Dominic's voice is low, teasing, dark. A hand grips my throat, just enough to make me gasp, make my pulse hammer beneath his fingertips.
I whimper as Dominic's fingers slide between my thighs, teasing, parting, finding me already soaked. "Fuck," he groans, rubbing slow, torturous circles over my clit. "She's dripping. You feel that, Ash?"
My body trembles, caught between pleasure so intense it borders on pain.
"Cum for us, little lamb," Dominic commands.
****
Caught between two brothers... One my best friend, the other my deepest desire.
Dominic was everything I dreamed of-hot, charming, and completely unattainable. Especially with a girl like Cassie already by his side.
Then there was Ashton-my childhood best friend, my safe haven, the one who had always been there.
But one reckless dare changed everything.
The night I was dared to kiss the Alpha, marks the beginning of my ruin. And just when I thought things couldn't get more complicated, Ashton confessed his feelings for me.
Now, I'm trapped between two brothers-one who's always been my heart, and one who might just break it.
How do you choose between love and desire when both could destroy you?

Chapter: 114DominicTo say I'm stunned is an understatement. I know Cassie, she can be manipulative when she wants something. You could say she loves playing the devil's advocate whenever it serves her purpose. But right now, her voice sounds too innocent for games, more desperate than deceitful. What I don't understand is how her being my fiancée changes anything."Please... say something." Her hands are clasped tightly in her lap as she leans forward, eyes filled with a flicker of hope that almost hurts to look at.A brief pause hangs between us.Ryk growls in my head, his voice a warning. "Before you think of doing something stupid, remember, we have a mate. And we just proposed."I clench my jaw. "What game are you playing at, Cassie?"The hope in her eyes flickers, then fades entirely."I know you...," she whispers.

Chapter: 113DOMINICFor the first time, I wish I wasn’t positioned at the head of the table. I’m not sure I’ll be as gentle as my brother with all the teasing this brat has put me through. Deciding I’ve seen enough, I pick up the darn fork and return to my seat. I can feel Xylus and Ella staring funny at me, but I ignore them anyway.Rosie’s pussy is worth more than their curiosity.“I heard the Luna got attacked. How is she now?” Ella’s voice drags me out of my fantasy. I blink at her, a bit confused, before I pull myself together.“Still recovering, but she’s better now. We’re looking forward to her full recovery before the end of the month.”That damned monster almost took her life. If Ashton and Rosie hadn’t moved fast, she would’ve lost a lot of blood and died. Good thing we got rid of it.“I’m glad everything is back to normal. A lot has happened. It’s only fair the goddess grants us a break from drama—at least till after the wedding,” Ashton quips through a bite of salad. Xylus nods in agr

Chapter: 112DominicThere’s nothing more comforting than a home alive with chatter and laughter over dinner. If you turn a blind eye to the micro-responses Rosie cautiously gives Ella, and the glare Xylus is drilling into my head, you might think we look like one big happy family from Barney.Guilt grips at my throat, its sharp talons reminding me that I’m about to lie to my brother and my mate. I shift in my seat, restless. Don’t get me wrong, the food’s delicious: smoked veal, Caesar salad, and other dishes I don’t even care to name.“So, how about you, Alpha? Care to tell us how your day went?” Rosie sends me a flirty look, her eyes sparkling with lust. Underneath the table, I feel her cold feet brush along my pants. Oh fuck.For the love of the moon, this woman could make a saint I exhale deeply. “Too boring for you to care about. Turns out I won’t be around from tomorrow. I’ll have to take a diplomatic visit to another pack.” I avoid her eyes, my voice dipping at the end of my sentence.X

Chapter: 110CASSANDRA They say regret strikes hard, but I never knew it could hurt this deep. Each stab pierces through my chest, leaving a hollow ache that grows heavier every day.I wish that monster had killed me. But oh well... maybe this is the Moon Goddess giving me a second chance, to rewrite my history. To rewrite everything.In my dream, I had seen Wayne marrying her, the bitch he’s been cheating on me with. And my daughter... suffering, day after day.No. I can’t let that happen. I have to rewrite it all, and it starts with custody.Way before I fell victim to the monster, Wayne was already filing to take full custody of our daughter. And my biggest fear? His evidence is more concrete than anything I have. He’s on the winning side.Of course, what court would grant custody to a mother who abandoned her child at five months old and never showed up again for years?I made a mistake… a terrible one. Not just as a woman, but as a mother. I know I’ve failed her. But the real pain isn’t just
