ADELINE

The fall off the cliff happened so fast that everything became a blur. The wind hit my face hard and took the breath right out of my throat before I could even try to scream. The cold air felt sharp against my skin as I tumbled down into the dark ravine, unable to see anything through the thick sheets of snow.

Even though I was terrified, I only had one thought in my mind, and that was to protect my baby. I quickly rolled my body into a tight ball, pulling my knees up to my chest and

  • Accidentally Mated To The Ruthless Lycan King   Chapter 169: A Punishment

    VIVIAN“Why the hell is she still there?”I gripped my phone so tightly that my fingers began to ache, pacing back and forth in my room. The thought of Adeline still living comfortably in the palace while I was forced to endure humiliation after humiliation made my blood boil.Everything was supposed to be going according to plan. I expected Dominic to kick her out, especially after learning about her pregnancy. Instead, he had become even more protective of her, and now the entire palace was beginning to look at me as though I were some pathetic woman begging for a man’s attention.“Vivian, calm down,” Lucy’s voice came through the speaker. “Getting yourself worked up won’t solve anything.”“Don’t tell me to calm down!” I snapped. “Do you have any idea how ridiculous this situation has become? I’m a princess, for crying out loud! I was supposed to be the woman standing beside Dominic, not some insignificant Omega who stumbled into his mating ceremony by mistake.”“And yet she’s the

    DOMINICI closed Adeline’s door behind me and stood there for a moment, staring at the guards stationed outside her room.“Do not let anyone enter without my permission,” I ordered. “If she needs anything, inform me immediately. If anyone tries to approach her without authorization, I want to know who they are and why they came.”“Yes, Alpha.”I waited until they took their positions before walking away.I should have felt better knowing Adeline was safe, but the image of her sitting on the bed, watching me with that guarded expression, stayed in my mind.I had given her enough reasons to doubt me.Still, I was not ready to accept that things would remain this way between us. I wanted to explain myself and make her understand that I had not stopped caring about her, even when my anger had made me act like a fool. But I knew better than to force that conversation now.Hilton was free, and Adeline was the person he would most likely come after.I would deal with him first. Once I remove

  • Accidentally Mated To The Ruthless Lycan King   Chapter 167: The Investigation

    ADELINEThe warning bells rang through the castle, pulling my attention away from the book I’d been trying to read.I frowned and set it aside. The sound wasn’t the usual signal for a shift change or an approaching visitor. Something had happened, and judging by the hurried footsteps outside my room, it wasn’t something small.I got to my feet and walked towards the door. Two guards stood outside, speaking in low voices. They fell silent when they noticed me.“What’s happening?” I asked.“Nothing you need to worry about, Luna.”I stared at the younger guard. “If nothing were happening, the warning bells wouldn’t be ringing. Try again.”He exchanged a glance with his companion before answering.“A prisoner has escaped.”My heart skipped a beat. “Who?”Neither guard answered immediately, and I already knew I wasn’t going to like what came next.“Alpha,” the second guard finally said.For a moment, I said nothing. Hilton was free.The bastard who had spent years making my life miserable

    DOMINIC I couldn’t get a damn thing done.I’d been sitting in my office for almost an hour, staring at the same reports without taking in a single word. Every time I tried to concentrate, my mind went back to Adeline and the look on her face when I’d finally apologized.I’d said things to her that I couldn’t take back. I’d accused her of things without giving her a chance to explain herself, and when she’d needed me to listen, I’d walked away.I’d been so focused on my own anger that I hadn’t stopped to think about what she’d been through.I knew what it felt like to lose the people who were supposed to protect you. I knew what it was like to be left alone with pain you couldn’t do anything about. I’d spent years making sure nobody could put me in that position again, yet I’d failed to recognize the same helplessness in my own mate.That realization pissed me off more than anything else.I should have listened to her.The problem was, I still didn’t know what to do about the baby.Th

    DOMINIC“Tell me we have something.”Grant stood in front of my desk with a report in his hand. Judging by his expression, I wasn’t going to like what he had to say.“We’re still investigating, Alpha. We’ve traced the weapons to an illegal supplier, but he claims they were stolen from his warehouse. We haven’t found evidence connecting him to the attackers.”I stared at him. “And you believe him?”“No, Alpha. But we can’t prove he was involved yet.”“Then find proof.”He lowered his gaze to the report. “We’re also checking the attackers’ financial records and known associates. So far, there are no obvious links to anyone who might have ordered the ambush.”I leaned back in my chair, fighting the urge to slam my fist against the desk.Days of investigation, and we were still chasing scraps.I had caught one of the bastards myself. I could still remember the bastard struggling in my grip as I demanded to know who had sent him. He’d looked me in the eye, then killed himself before I coul

  • Accidentally Mated To The Ruthless Lycan King   Chapter 164: This Isn’t Over

    DOMINICI was beginning to think walking away from Adeline had been the stupidest fucking decision I’d made in my life.And that was saying something.I stood outside the room, my jaw clenched as her voice carried through the door. I should have left. I had no business standing here, listening to a private conversation after deciding I wanted nothing more to do with her.Except I couldn’t fucking move.I was still angry. Furious, actually. Adeline had kept things from me, important things that had changed everything between us, and I couldn’t get past the fact that she’d let me discover the truth instead of telling me herself.I’d given her opportunities to explain herself, hadn’t I?No. Not exactly.I’d asked questions, she’d hesitated, and I’d taken that hesitation as confirmation of everything I’d already suspected. I’d decided she was hiding something because she didn’t trust me, then shut her out before she could tell me what it was.Fuck.I’d been so busy feeling betrayed that I

    ADELINE “How dare you all?!” Alpha Dominic's voice boomed through the field. No one said a word. It was dead silent save for the screams of the Gamma who now had only one arm attached to his body. My chest was still heaving as I stared wide-eyed at the blood pooling in the sand. I blinked as if

Which was great because then I would never have to face Alpha Dominic ever again.I clutched at my hair and shut my eyes tightly, trembli

Tears were still streaming down my cheeks as I walked out of the palace and headed out of the estate, armed
