Adrianna threw her head back and laughed, the sound echoing off the warehouse walls. My stomach churned as she raised her gun, ignoring Heather's desperate pleas.

"Farrah, please, I-"

The gunshot rang out as I blinked. I flinched as blood sprayed across the concrete. Heather's body slumped forward, lifeless eyes staring at nothing.

Adrianna turned to me, lips curled in a predatory smile. "Poor Farrah. Did you really think this was a game?" She swung the gun toward Roland. "That I'd actually let you choose?"

"No!" I lunged forward but the men held me back. Roland remained silent, those warm green eyes fixed on mine. Not a trace of fear showed on his bloodied face.

"Stop."

One word, and the world paused. The voice cut through the warehouse like a fiery blade. My heart stopped. I knew that voice-would know it anywhere, even after seven years.

Jacob stood in the doorway, his back lit by the dim warehouse lights. His presence alone commanded the entire room.

I watched as Jacob's presence s

  • Alpha Lucien Craved For Me Even After Breakup   Chapter 23: Chasing Her Until Her Last Breath

    Alpha Azriel’s POVFor six months, I have called Rhiannon my wife. For six months, I have watched her live in my pack, among my people—once a reluctant Luna, now a she-wolf slowly finding her place.And for six months, I have fallen for her more than I ever thought possible.It hadn’t been easy at first. She had kept her distance, cautious and guarded, always holding a part of herself back. I never blamed her for it. She had been rejected by Alex, discarded like she was nothing, and I knew the scars of that betrayal ran deeper than she’d ever admit.But time has a way of softening even the most broken of she-wolves.I noticed it in the little things. The way her gaze lingered on me a second longer. The way she leaned into my touch instead of pulling away. The way she started seeking me out—not out of duty, but of desire.Our nights no longer carried that unspoken tension. She laughed more and smiled more. Every

  • Alpha Lucien Craved For Me Even After Breakup   Chapter 22: I'll Stay and I'll Never Give Up

    Rhiannon’s POVI let go of the breath I didn’t know I was holding.A long silence stretched between the three of us, thick with some emotions I didn’t dare name.He regretted it? After all this time? After I had spent nights drowning in the echoes of his rejection, after I had given up on the foolish hope that he would ever see me as anything more than a mistake? That saving me in that forest was nothing more but luck?I glanced away, my heart pounding in a way I hated. But just as I did, my eyes found Azriel. My husband’s face was tight. He has every right to be.He clenched his hand into a fist at his sides. My heart twisted. He had heard everything, even with the fact that I invited him. Of course, he had. He’s the Alpha.Azriel, who had taken every shattered piece of me and pieced me back together, was now forced to listen to the very man who had cast me aside, daring to say he regretted it.I turned back to Alexander, something sharp settling in my chest. “It’s too late for regre

  • Alpha Lucien Craved For Me Even After Breakup   Chapter 21: From the Shards of His Regrets

    Alexander’s POVSix months have passed ever since I rejected Rhiannon, but it felt just like yesterday.I thought rejecting a mate would only be painful at first.

A thorn in my side that just grew sharper and sharper each day, stabbing me deeper.I peered through the trees; my brother and his wife are currently celebrating their first sixth monthsary.Half a year of being married together and they seemed so happy.

Now that he married my former mate, she favored him too.The night air was sharp against my skin, the chill seeping into my bone

  • Alpha Lucien Craved For Me Even After Breakup   Chapter 20: Wild Honeymoon

    The clinking of wine glasses and the soft hum of conversation behind instantly quieted as I stared at the darkness of the trees. Just a few moments ago, my mind was somewhere else. Or rather, with someone else.Alexander.I could have sworn I saw him standing by one of the trees—his piercing gaze cutting through me while I stood by the balcony. Had I imagined him? Was it just my mind playing cruel tricks on me?Squinting my eyes, I forced myself to look again closely despite the thick shadows surrounding the trees.I swear I saw him. I can’t be mistaken—‘Perhaps we’re just imagining things, like how we saw Alpha Azriel naked earlier,’ my wolf murmured. Maybe it’s the wine, or maybe not.I sighed and finished my glass of champagne. Just when I was about to grab for more, my hand was yanked away and pulled by none other than my new husband.We stood at the center of the hall. With a teaspoon, he clinked his glass repeatedly to draw attention. “It’s time for a honeymoon!” Azriel barked

  • Alpha Lucien Craved For Me Even After Breakup   Chapter 19: Surprise Me At My Own Wedding

    The High Priestess cleared her throat, her lilting voice echoing in the stillness of the night. The wedding ceremony began, moon-blessed vows echoing through the courtyard as witnesses from the Moonbeam Pack and Moonborn Pack looked on. My father’s face beamed with satisfaction and triumph.“Do you, Alpha Azriel of the Moonborn Pack, take Rhiannon, daughter of Alpha Dorian of the Moonbeam Pack, as your wife and Luna?”“I do,” he breathed with a smile.I turned to him. I glanced at the High Priestess once. My breath became ragged as I stared at Alpha Azriel. “Do you, Rhiannon, daughter of Alpha Dorian of the Moonbeam Pack, take Alpha Azriel of the Moonborn Pack, as your Alpha and husband?” As the High Priestess spoke, sealing our hands in marriage, Azriel leaned closer and waited for my response. This is it—the very purpose my father raised me to be. This shall be my revenge to Beta Homer and to the mate who rejected me, Alexander the Rogue. Just a few days ago, I despised this arran

  • Alpha Lucien Craved For Me Even After Breakup   Chapter 18: A Midnight Wedding

    “Azriel...” I spoke his name as he drifted closer. I blinked. “What are you—”He was never naked at all. I sighed. What the fuck am I imagining?“Something’s wrong?” he purred, his grin almost reaching his ears.“I...” I shook my head as I lowered my gaze and bit my lip, my cheeks blushing. “What are you doing out here?”“The air is nice,” he chuckled. I clicked my tongue. “You’re just out here for me.”Even now, I could hear my former mate’s voice, cold and unyielding: I reject you, Rhiannon...Azriel’s face become serious when he noticed a tear escaped my eye. He slid his hands into his pockets as he stood beside me a few breaths away. “He’s always been like that. Alexander...”I let out a small “oh” and placed my hair behind my ears. “What will happen to me now?”He softly smiled at me, his eyes kinder than any I’ve seen. “The wedding will continue.”“When?” I bit my lip.“Soon. You’re free to pick the date until you and your wolf recovered.”“That’s—” I was about to say amazing,
