last update Last Updated: 2025-09-15 22:14:14

Warren’s POV

“Volunteers are boring,” Alex said as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. “But you—” he tapped my chest lightly with the arrow tip, not enough to hurt but just enough to remind me who was in charge here, “—you squirm. Squirming keeps things interesting.”

I let out a slow breath, half annoyed and half relieved that he was joking—well, mostly joking. “Interesting for you. Not for my heart.”

“Your heart will thank me later.” He set the bow back on the rack, but his eyes didn’t leave me. “Besides, isn’t it better to keep your reflexes sharp?”

I wanted to say no, but the truth was that ever since Alex came back from the Desori Blood pack, nothing about him had been predictable.

One minute he was cracking jokes, and the next he was staring into the distance like he could hear voices no one else could. He used to be wild in a way that felt reckless but still safe… more like a storm you could see coming.

Now he was wild in a way that didn’t feel safe at all. As we w

  • Alphas' contract mate   Chapter 53: Warren

    Warren's POV “Alpha, I only asked because…” My voice cracked as I searched for an excuse.The truth was that I asked him almost every day, and sometimes twice in the same morning, because the Desori Blood might have been serious… but at least it was predictable. Here in Desori Claw, I never knew whether I’d survive breakfast.Alex lowered the bow slightly, and his eyes twinkled. “Because you miss it? Or because you think someone there understands you better?”I forced a shaky smile, but my throat felt tight. “There’s no such thing, Alpha.”He smirked knowingly. “You mean Frank.”My jaw tightened, because he was right, but I couldn’t let him know he was right.Frank had been my closest friend back in Desori Blood, and sometimes I thought Frank was the only person who truly understood me. But if I also admitted that to Alex, he would never let me hear the end of it.“I said there’s no such thing,” I repeated, a little firmer this time, even though my thoughts were screaming: Yes, it’

  • Alphas' contract mate   Chapter 52: Apples and Arrows

    Mia’s POVWhere were the others?Where were the people who had known me, who had at least watched me grow up? I thought of Daphne. She and her family were probably gone (hiding in their shame) or maybe already dead. But what about the rest? Why was no one here?I frowned, my throat suddenly dry. And then the memory hit me. The last time I’d stood in front of a crowd, it hadn’t been like this—no cheers, no smiles.The tears watered my eyes before I could stop them.“Mia,” Cass hissed, but I couldn’t hold it back. The tears blurred my vision. Look at me standing here again, and feeling like the same scene all over.“What the fuck do you think you’re doing, Mia?”Samantha’s voice sliced my trip down memory lane in two.It wasn’t her words that shocked me, but her expression and her tone. She was smiling so sweetly that for a second I thought she was joking or maybe even teasing.I raised an eyebrow. “What?”She tilted her head. “Oh no, don’t cry, sweetheart. Tears don’t look good on yo

  • Alphas' contract mate   Chapter 51: Beg for votes

    Mia's POVCass must’ve read it on my face because she snapped her fingers. “And before you even start thinking it’s impossible… just don’t. The trick is, you need to start earning those votes now. If you wait until the official game, it won’t count. People’s hearts lock in early. By the time the third trial comes, everyone already knows who they’re cheering for.”I rubbed my temples. “So you’re saying I should… what? Bake cookies for them? Smile and wave?”Cass threw her hands up. “Yes! Exactly! Okay, maybe not cookies, but you get it. Talk to them. Help an omega carry baskets, help a Beta hunt or something... small things matter to the point they add up.”I snorted. But Cass wasn't laughing.My smile dropped and I shrugged. “Sorry,” Yeah, I wasn't. “Don’t give me that look. I swear to the goddess, if you even ‘’think’ about saying you’re not good at connection, I’ll lock you in a room with every pup in the pack until you learn.”I let myself smile at her antics. Cassian might think

  • Alphas' contract mate   Chapter 50: Tell me

    Mia’s POV“Go on,” Cass stayed behind me like a little guardian devil. I stared at my wolf… her scars, and unnatural creamy fur that had earned me names I’d never wanted.Monster.Freak.“Now you see why I can never be Luna.” I whispered, averting my gaze.“Wrong,” Cass snapped so quickly I actually flinched. She marched across the room like she’d just won some argument in her head before it even started. “Completely, absolutely wrong. You’re acting like a villain revealed in a bad movie. ‘Look at me, I’m scary, fear me.’ No. I’ve seen scary. You’re not it. You’re… intense… different, sure, but different doesn’t equal monster. If anything, it makes people pay attention.”I rolled my eyes. “You screamed, Cass. Then you puked. That’s not exactly ‘paying attention.’”Her face flushed, but she doubled down anyway. “Okay, yes, that happened. And in my defense, I told you I’ve got a sensitive stomach. It’s my body betraying me, not my brain. My brain thinks you’re badass… my stomach just

  • Alphas' contract mate   Chapter 49: Everything, Cassian

    Mia’s POV“Everything.”She shook her head quickly and reached out to cover my hand with hers. “No, Mia. Don’t say that. You were chosen. Whether you accept it or not, he called you mate. None of them can take that from you unless you give it away. And…”If only she knew I wasn’t exactly their true mate.How did that part escape her? Even with all the chaos going on?I took a deep breath, trying to quiet the questions in my chest. But how many others were thinking the same way as Cass?How many actually believed I was the one meant for Axel and Alex? It was even a taboo to want both Alphas in the first place. I was about to tell her to just drop it when her lips curved into a warm smile… almost too encouraging.“I am rooting for you. I want you to win. I want you to become our Luna.”My mouth fell open. “Wh–wh–what?”Me? Luna? The thought was so absurd it nearly knocked the air out of me. My inner voice screamed at the insanity of it… Luna to the same man who broke our deal? To the s
