Alpha's Claimed Mate Chapter 71
RYKER Her eyes become wide. She stumbles back, her jaw hanging low. I reach out and grab her hand again. She wanted to know. “ And while I do it, you must stand by me. That’s what being mates with me means. For you. Right? ” It comes out as a hiss, vicious and cruel. “ What are you saying? ” She blurts, her eyes watering up. “ You know I am at war with your pack. It’s because they have a connection with the attack on my pack. ” I disclose. Her mouth closes before she opens it again, trying to say something but unable to do so. A tear rolls down her cheek and the headache worsens for me. It’s all pain, not mine but Natalie’s. “ I wanted to let you have a little we—are—all—ignorant—people—party with your friends but you wanted to know so bad. Are you satisfied now? ” I take a step back, rubbing my face. “ I am not going to forgive anyone. Even for you. ” My voice lowers a few octaves. Natalie’s face turns pale, her eyes burning again. Pain and anger triggers her wolf to come o

RYKER I take a deep, deep breath until my lungs fill with oxygen to the brim. I need to calm my tits. “ She knows? ” I exhale and move back to my spot, slumping down over the chair. The genre of the story of my life is changing from Action to Melodrama. Great! Fucking fantastic! “ She…doesn’t. ” Zero nods to himself. “ What a twist of events. So Luna’s sexy friend is giving her a wolf suppressant. And that friend is Zero’s mate. And Zero is a part of our small aware—of—all—secrets group. ” Zio claps his hands, chuckling. I shoot him a side glare. He coughs and sits straight in the chair. “ We are fucked. ” He cringes. “ How important is this mate to you? ” I face Zero, questioning. He blinks at me robotically. Awkward silence hangs in the air as I wait for an answer. My eyebrows rise in curiosity when he doesn’t answer me for the longest time. “ I didn’t realise it was a question. ” He takes hint from my raised eyebrows and states calmly. Oh. That’s a perfect answer. So th

NATALIE~A little while earlier…Ryker walked out on me again, without taking me seriously and without paying attention to what I was saying to him. Or more like threatening him with.It seems like, even to me, the rejection remains the only leverage I have against him when he acts like an asshole to me most of the times.How can he ask me to choose? On a honest note, I don’t harbour any great love for my family or anyone from that pack, but I despise war. I despise imagining myself seeing them all dead. Blood, agony, and seeing Ryker as a monster inflicting pain…that’s another thing I don’t want to witness — not when he is up against the people I once cared about and wanted to return to until recently.But when I don’t really love them, why do I keep thinking about how Emilie might be feeling after losing her mate? How are my parents faring with their heartbroken, pushed to the door of insanity daughter? I sigh, rubbing my burning eyes with the tips of my forefingers to ease the ac

NATALIE ~A little while earlier... “ It’s nothing like you think. I don’t have my clothes with me. That’s why I am wearing this. ” It’s embarrassing to cut her off to say something so fucking stupid. My cheeks start burning as soon as I am done explaining myself. My heart drums in my ears awkwardly. Her bright smile falls, her lips setting in a thin line. “ My brother didn’t bother taking you out for shopping? Or asking someone to get clothes for you? ” She inquires, sliding closer to me. Uneasily, I slip further back. The sunshine will blind my eyes if I stay too close, my mind screams. “ He—uh…” I don’t feel like saying something against him to his sister. “ He is busy. ” I nod, settling with the most used excuse by all women. “ But I am not busy. ” She chimes, her smile returning on her red painted lips. “ What— ” Before I get another word out of my mouth, she clamps her soft hand around my wrist and pulls me up. Surprised at the suddenness, I try to resist but she effor

NATALIEFor me, running away could never be an option when people I love are in danger. Therefore, instead of listening to Rhianna and running away as soon as I saw the men approaching us, I stayed there.I was not much help. I could tell by the way Rhianna, Giana and Anne immediately shifted and stood before me, trying to shield me from the enemies.How many were they? I couldn’t tell. I was too out of it. I had barely managed to get down from the car and I hardly made out what was happening around.Their injuries had healed instantly but mine were far from closing up on their own. My head was bleeding, my arm was bleeding, my neck was bleeding. Numerous shards of glass were stuck deep in my flesh.Still, I tried to shake off the dizziness and nausea and do something — anything. And anything meant trying to focus, blink away the wave of unconsciousness which threatened to fall over me and ignoring the howls of Rhianna who was fighting the shifted wolves harder than Anne and Giana.
Alpha's Claimed Mate Chapter 76
NATALIEThe bomb has been dropped. Alpha Wilson remains in shock for a while, staring at the phone while Ryker has hanged up long ago.I do feel the urge to explain why his son was killed but when I recall how Anne and Giana were attacked, and dragged mercilessly, the urge dies on its own.I want to see them. More than my fucking family, I care about them. I won’t be able to live if something has happened to any one of them because of me.“ Alpha…” I try to call him, to break him out of the trance.It takes him some more moments to process everything and when reality sinks, his eyes change colour and pin me down.“ Is this true? Did Ryker kill — kill Enzo? ” I have never been asked such a difficult question in my life before.The pained look in his eyes and the anger slowly taking over his features renders me speechless. I open my mouth and close it when I realise what he is going to do whether I answer him or not.And it does happen. As soon as my silence provides him with the answe

NATALIE“ What is Alpha going to do with us? ” Giana murmurs, tears rolling down her cheeks.“ What he should have done long ago so you never got the chance to run away and bring shame to the pack. ” Dad grunts from behind me, his fingers digging in my shoulder to keep me on my knees.I grit my teeth, my heart hardening towards him. He felt ashamed — that’s all he has to say, that’s all he has ever said to me. “ If this list of things to be ashamed for runs so long…you should add one thing in it. Be ashamed of being such a horrible father to me. ” I whisper under my breath.“ It’s all your fault. If only you were not a weak wolf less child, everything would have been fine with our family! ” Mom shouts from somewhere behind me.My so—called hardened heart drowns to the pit of my stomach. I glance down at my hands. The shimmer under my skin pulses firmly.‘ Look up. ’ The sweet voice of a female purrs in my head.I throw my head back and look ahead. “ He came. I didn’t expect him to c
Alpha's Claimed Mate Chapter 78
RYKERIt was not enough. Caging her, keeping an eye on her all the time was not enough.Just one wrong move from Rhianna and she was in their clutches. I set out to find her as soon as panic surged through me and I sensed her pain. Zio got Rhianna’s phone location tracked and we reached the spot where they had the accident.Rhianna was there, injured but alive yet Natalie was not. I knew immediately where she must be but I refrained from calling Wilson on my own. Instead, I prepared for war. My heart was drumming in my ears all the while. I wanted to see her. I was angry at her but worry won over rage easily. I knew I would never be able to forgive myself if I lose her too. I didn’t ever feel so fucking scared even when my whole life I was on the verge of being executed myself. The moment I saw her good for nothing father holding her down on her knees, my rational thinking was thrown out the window.The monster which I have always tried to keep hidden, threatened to spring out.
