Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 120
NIRVANA I’d never been to Cumbria, let alone England. The weather was chilly. Archibald castle was built on a highland with greener grass, surrounded by a moat, like one of those featured in a popular historical drama series. It looked surreal. I expected a Dracula’s castle with a dark and Gothic theme. This one, though, was exemplary. “Don’t show off. Stay calm, and remember we’re his guests and want something from him, even if he throws insults.” “Is he that terrible person, Alpha King?” I asked. “When he’s not in his mood. By the way, his guards are humans.” We arrived at the gate after walking ten minutes from where Zarah sent us through the portal. “Lord Archibald is expecting us,” Alpha King said, and these are my presents. He showed two cases of his wines carried by Luka and McKaye. “I’ll assist you to his study,” the other man, older than the blonde at the gate, said. The thick double doors cracked open. The interior of his castle was magnificent—gorgeous was an under
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 121
NIRVANA “Ah, yes. My apology, Bastie. You’re looking for a knife, and your beautiful witch led you here. Where’s Zarah, by the way? I haven’t seen here in a while.” Still holding a glass of blood, he sat and crossed his legs before the Alpha King. “We’re a bit in a hurry, Lord Archibald. There’s a serious matter left in the US that’s escalating fast.” Knight turned to a serious alpha that I didn’t see often. His stance remained strong, confident, and admirable. “Is it about the virus infecting beings?” He turned in our direction. “As a matter of fact, it is.” “Huh.” He slightly nodded. “It is everywhere. A friend of a friend of mine in Germany rotted to death. He was bitten by a werewolf.” He pointed a finger at us. “I know your fangs are deadly, but we don’t die like what happened to him. Here, look at this.” He showed Sebastien the video on his phone. Knight and I went to watch it. My hand flew to my mouth. I was horrified to watch a person dying, but this one was a nightmare.
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 122
KNIGHT Nirvana almost had the dagger when Chance woke up. In a blink of an eye, he had his fang on my mate’s neck, his hands locking her arms. With my heart in my throat, my wolf urged me to come out. I already felt my eyes glowing. The guys growled, ready to attack and rip Chance’s head off. “Relax!” Archibald became the middleman, stopping us from killing his brother. Tension quickly erupted in the tomb. I felt their anger everywhere, and my wolf turned feral, about to attack and kill, where his laser eyes focused on the one who had his mate. “I will fucking kill you and your brother if you won’t let my mate go. You bloodsuckers, maybe fast, but you can’t take us all down in five seconds.” My anger instantly boiled in my blood as I watched Chance’s teeth grazing against my mate’s skin. “He’s not gonna bite your mate,” Archibald grunted. “Chance, let her go before it gets bloody down here. She’s not your type, bastard,” Sebastien said impatiently. “We don’t have time for this.
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 123
KNIGHT “The Excalibur,” I muttered under my breath. “Thor’s Mjölnir,” said Kailin. “No,” Chance replied. Grunted, Nirvana let the dagger and glared at Chance. “You have to give it to me, haven’t you?” “Yes.” “Wait a sec. Why can you hold the dagger without hurting yourself?” Nirvana asked. That was an excellent question. “Remember what I told you about a few people secretly tasked to protect something with their lives, the Keepers? Just like Case, he is tasked and responsible for protecting the key, and I am tasked to keep the journal by birthright, and Chance’s job is to give the dagger to the last female Katzius’ descendant,” Dylan explained. “That makes sense,” Luka said. “Well, it’s been an honor having this dagger with me for almost a century and a half since my father passed it on to me. It’s yours now, Nirvana.” He took my mate’s hand and placed the dagger on her palm. “Protect this with your life and use it to do good.” “Thank you.” She grasped it, and something just
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 124
NIRVANA “Oh, my God.” Air stuck in my lungs as I stared at the giant wolf in front of our vehicle. His eyes were pitch black, snarling at us, drooling in black blood. We had two problems. We couldn’t drive to the other line, or the wolf would throw us off the bridge. If we ran it over, it would damage the car, and if the wolf would not die, it would kill us all. Then, we had to walk if we could not find a passing vehicle. “What should we do now? We can’t run over a wolf or change lanes.” Exactly. “Stay in the car, Luka—” “Wait.” Knight was instantly alarmed. “What are you going to do? You can’t fight that wolf, or you get infected if you get bitten, or maybe the scratch is also infectious.” “I know. I’ll be careful.” “No, Knight.” I grabbed his arm. “I’ll run to the woods and let it follow me.” “Are you insane?” The way Kailin looked at me, she thought I was out of my mind. Maybe I was, but I could teleport. “How many werewolves are we in this car? We even have a Lycan royalt
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 125
NIRVANA I was back to the place where it all started. Where I first met Cyrius, how he showed me everyone I loved died. It was painful, and I was hopeless. And then he appeared. “I’ve shown you, your future— how it will end. Resisting against me, you know you can’t win, Nirvana. Come and join me, and see how your future changes, just the way you’ve ever dreamed, having family and kids—” I felt extreme fear again as I watched the future, losing hope. “Over my dead body! You can stop spreading your tentacles, asshole. You won’t get what you want. Even if you will kill everyone I love, I will find a way to kill you.” “You had your chance.” “Fuck you!” I jolted to sit, my heart galloping in my chest. I realized I was still in the vehicle, and we hadn’t arrived at Inverness. “Whoa.” I thought it came from Kailin. “What’s wrong?” I saw their worried face. “You must be dreaming. You just cursed in your sleep,” Knight said. He still looked hurt. I knew he cared about me, but I was mor
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 126
NIRVANA “That dream I had, it was where I badly hurt. I don’t know, a gut feeling, I guess. I don’t wanna risk the people there.” “Don’t worry. We’re fifty miles away from Inverness. By then, Zarah will be done with the meeting with her coven.” Later in the afternoon, we finally arrived at the Inverness. We entered the pub, and most customers were local humans. I couldn’t feel other supernatural beings but us. “Where’s your friend, Alpha?” Knight asked. “He’ll be here, but Kain is always on time.” He looked at the time on his watch as we took a table while Luka, Dylan, and McKaye took another table. “I wanna drink Scotch.” “You don’t look twenty-one, Nirvana,” Knight whispered, amused. “Really? The last time I checked, Scots can start drinking at eighteen. Then you shouldn’t be sleeping with me.” I put my hand on his thigh, slowly tracing up just below his crotch. “Not funny.” We ordered drinks and the rest of the guys. Before our order arrived, Sebastien said, “Something
Alpha Knight's Cursed Mate 127
KNIGHT “Are you going to ignore me the whole time?” We were all exhausted, but we were finally back at the vineyards, and I didn’t want Nirvana to stay angry at me. So far, she was doing a great job of ignoring me. “I need to talk to Kailin. I’ll see you later.” She just took off her jacket and went to the door. “Nirvana, you’re not leaving this room until we talk.” It was not a request but an order. Her head snapped in my direction, her eyes narrowing. “What are you going to do?” “We’ll talk.” “I don’t wanna talk, okay? Not now. I’m tired and need a good friend, and you’re definitely not my friend right now.” “I already apologized.” “Did you? First and foremost, I’m an adult. I’m not your wife. Yes, I’m your mate, but you can’t tell me what to do.” “I don’t want you getting hurt, and we’re not even close to ending this madness. We don’t have a vaccine or a cure for this black virus, and if you get hurt, what will happen to our mission? It’s over, Nirvana. We can’t do it wit
