She held it strongly in her hands, her laughter had subsided, replaced with the pain of failure. She dipped a finger in the middle, bringing it slowly to her mouth as the look scared her—it tasted worse than it looked, a bitter revelation of her growing incompetence.

A consistent feature of hers since she met Jace. Nothing seems to be moving in the right direction for her, maybe it's because she had forgotten herself in the chase of love, a foolish mistake she has repeated severally.

She stared at the casserole or what was to be casserole in her hand. The top was golden brown while the edges were crusted. She dropped it on the counter, letting it cool. Clara stared down at the sorry excuse for a casserole like it had personally offended her, and when it reached her satisfaction, she scooped out a portion, holding it up as she dreaded what was to come next

She brought the bite to her mouth slowly, then swallowed with a hard gulp. She closed her eyes, trying to chew, but not up to a se

  • Abandoned By My Mate    CHAPTER 121

    She didn't answer, she couldn't. All she could do was stare at the pool of blood as fear stabbed at her ribs.Luci yelled and placed a hand on her tummy, trying to raise herself up. “No—no, the baby,” she yelled out, dropping back tonthe floor as she cried out. Melinda's hands moved as fast as possible, one on Luci's shoulder, and the other at her forehead, trying to calm her down, but it clearly wasn't working.Around them, people rushed in, some moving to help, while others just came to see what was happening. A few already began to give Clara an accusatory look."Someone call an ambulance!" One yelled."Already done that," Melinda replied without looking up. "It will be fine, Luci," she added."Let's try to keep calm, please," another called out. The gym suddenly got filled with fear as the blood from Luci's inner walls. Volunteers from the crowd helped Luci up onto the stretcher, then into the back of the ambulance when it arrived. She kept crying, “It hurts, it hurts.” Melinda

    She looked different now. Her tummy had begun to pop out slightly, a visible sign of the new life within her, but what hadn’t changed was the same wicked smile that always turned Clara’s head upside down, twisting her tummy.Linda stepped into the gym after Melinda, and she paused at the door for a moment. Her eyes scanned the room, then her lips shifted, as if she were rating every detail around her. A look of pure disgust formed on her face, and she sniffed before finally walking in fully. She followed Melinda till the two of them stood face-to-face with Clara.Damien, who had been by Clara’s side since she arrived, remained there. Something instinctively told him not to leave her alone, standing by her side like he was ready to shield her as his eyes narrowed at the two women.Clara’s voice cut sharply. “What do you want here, Linda?”Linda tilted her head mockingly. “Oh, please. Like I’d even want to be caught dead in a dump like this.”Clara’s teeth clenched so tightly her jaw a

    The drive down to the hospital was generally quiet. No one said a word, each was lost in their own world, staring out of the car, their thoughts heavy and scattered.Gabriel kept his eyes fixed on the road, hands steady on the wheel, while his face remained unreadable, though one could tell he was tensed. Behind him, Stephanie sat in silence, her gaze drifting between the night out the glass and the young woman seated in the backseat.Clara leaned against the door, her head resting on the window, while her eyes searched the whole city, as though she was looking for something, but she wasn't. She wasn’t truly seeing anything, her mind was caught in a bundle of questions she could not answer. Why was her life so attached to Jace’s? Why, no matter how far she tried to run, she always circulate back to him? She felt caught in an endless web, trapped at every turn, unable to break free.Her thoughts carried her so deep that she didn’t notice the car slowing down till Gabriel’s voice brok

    Her father had once been in the royal family, he had served under his father and had tasted royalty, making her fitting to be counted as an extract of the royal bloodline. To top it all, he once mated her, so why not?Jace swallowed hard, his throat dry as he forced his gaze up to meet the doctor’s. His voice came out low but certain. “I have someone in mind.”The doctor’s face lit up immediately. “Fantastic. Who is the person? We’ll go get him or her right away.”But Jace shook his head slowly. “No. That’s not how we’ll do this one, you guys won’t go and get her.”The doctor blinked, puzzled. “Okay? It's a her, but why not?”“Because,” Jace said, pausing to catch his breath, “this one is personal.”The doctor felt the weight behind his tone and let it be, but hesitated only a second before nodding. “Understood. Then who should I send for?”“Gabriel,” Jace answered without hesitation. “Send for him.”Moments later, Gabriel entered the room, his expression filled with worry.Jace leane

    Everyone stood still, no more fighting, no more running, even the jet just lingered in the sky, was this his end?The world seemed to pause, the echo of Gabriel’s shot still rang faintly in the air, but no one moved. Blackwood’s men froze where they stood, their faces drained of all the determination to fight. Even the jet above just hung there, its engines humming gently.Blackwood staggered, clutching the back of his neck where Gabriel’s bullet had hit him. His eyes stayed fixed on Jace, still burning with the will to stay standing. Then, his lips parted, and through clenched teeth, he cursed, “fuck.”Then, slowly, the dagger fell from his hand, then his knees buckled. The mighty monster who had haunted the Pack for weeks now fell back to the dirt. Dust rose around him as his body hit the ground, his hand twitching once, then stilled.Jace pushed himself back, dragging his body away from Blackwood’s fallen body. His hand still pressed tightly against his bleeding side, while his eye

  • Abandoned By My Mate    CHAPTER 116

    Two generations stood across from each other, at least a quarter of a century separated these two warriors, but at this moment, nothing mattered but who came on top at the end.The field was silent but for the restless rush of the wind. It blew at them forcefully as Jace and Blackwood faced off, two giants sizing each other up with eyes that burned with fire behind them. Neither moved at first, but the tension in the air was heavy enough to feel.“End of the line, old man,” Jace said as he threw off his suit jacket and took off the cuffs. His chest was already tight from his eagerness to get his hands on Blackwood.Blackwood smirked, tilting his head as his eyes flashed with the unmistakable glow of the wolf inside him. “You’ve grown bold… but boldness isn’t enough. Let’s see if you’ve grown teeth.”The shift in the atmosphere was immediate, both men lunged at the same time, colliding with a force that shook the ground beneath their feet. Their claws extended mid-strike, slicing thro
