Katarina

Zane finally shows up. I abruptly get up. Our eyes meet, and for a split second, I’m love-struck.

“Good morning, Katarina,” his deep voice greets me, but it’s cold as he approaches me.

“Good morning, Zane,” I respond with a warm smile, hoping to ease the tension.

He frowns and I hear a low gasp from behind me—it’s Roselyn. I quickly turn back to Zane.

“Katarina, it’s Alpha Zane to you. Do you understand?”

“No,” I say firmly. “I’d rather call you Zane. I want to keep seeing the other side of you.”

“This is the man that I am, Katarina,” he responds bluntly.

I look up at him, confused. Why is he being so cold again?

“We didn’t have a chance to talk yesterday after we came home,” I start, hoping to ease into the conversation. Maybe he’d understand and finally let me go home.

“You mean after you ran off like a child?” he asks, sarcastically.

My brows furrow. I swallow. “I just…wanted to process things.”

“I see. And?”

“I’ve come to a conclusion that’s better for both of us.”

  • BITTEN BY THE ALPHA: ALPHA ZANE   CHAPTER 119: GETTING TO THE BOTTOM OF IT ALL PART 1

    KatarinaI step out of the car and look up.Zane is here—standing there, waiting.I walk up to him. “Zane! What are you doing here?”I can’t hide the surprise on my face.“I’ve been waiting for you,” he says, unable to hide his displeasure either.“I didn’t think you were going to come.”“I didn’t think you’d want my support,” he retorts. “I don’t want you to take the wolf cure, Katarina,” he adds, his face serious, “but I won’t leave you alone either.”I smile and slip my hand into his. Together, we walk in to see Maik.“Ha! Alpha Zane and Luna Katarina!” Maik greets us like he already knew we were coming.I turn to Zane. “Did you tell him?”“Not at all,” he replies, though he doesn’t look surprised.“Come, sit. Drink some herbal tea with me,” Maik says, pouring tea from a white jar into three small teacups. He hands one to Zane, then one to me, and we sit down.“It’s good to see you back home safely and doing well, Luna Katarina,” he says, flashing his brownish teeth. “Alpha Zane wa

    KatarinaWe both silently stare at each other, but I don’t have the courage to say anything else.“Katarina.” He finally speaks, giving me an incredulous look.“Zane, you always knew I never wanted to be a wolf.”“Yes,” he mutters, his hands clenching into fists. “But I held out hope. I thought if you got to know me—if you got to know Kris—you’d change your mind.”I drop my gaze. “I’m sorry.”“I’ll take you back home.” He grabs my coat from the cold ground and wraps it around me.“And the cure?” I ask.He looks at me, clearly irritated. “If you want a cure so badly, then go to Maik. He’s the only one who might have the answers you’re looking for.”There’s hope! “So there is a cure, after all?”He looks away, then turns back to me.“Once, when my grandfather was still Grand Alpha…” he pauses. “There were rumors that some packs had seers—ones who created cures for werewolves wanting to be free of their curse.” His eyes lock onto mine.“One werewolf in Wolf Zone heard about it and convin

    KatarinaMy eyes open, and my hand stretches across the bed, searching for Zane. He’s not here.I get up and walk to the window, hoping to catch a glimpse of him—nothing. But then my eyes dart to the sky. It’s a full moon. I know where he is.I throw on a gown and wrap my coat tightly around my body before heading out.“Luna Katarina,” the werewolf guard at the first gate greets me.“Hello.”“I’m sorry, but I can’t let you leave. It’s dangerous. The full moon—”“I just want to go to the woods,” I say, cutting him off. “Precisely why I can’t let you go, Luna Katarina,” he retorts. “There are a lot of wolves loose in the woods. Alpha Zane would hate for you to be harmed.”He is clearly terrified of Zane. Then again, isn't everyone in the Wolf Zone? “Zane? Where is he?”“In the woods, Luna.”“Then that’s where I’m going.”He steps forward, trying to stop me.“He’ll protect me. Now let me go,” I demand, holding his gaze.He steps back, surprisingly obeying me. It’s good to know that be

  • BITTEN BY THE ALPHA: ALPHA ZANE   CHAPTER 116: LYING TO MY MATE PART 2

    ZaneWe arrive and walk straight into the Grand Hall. The werewolves are already seated and waiting. I clench Katarina’s hand even tighter as her heart starts to race again. I’m aware of the angry glares directed at her. Katarina isn’t loved because of who her father is, but if they only knew her like I do, they’d see there’s so much in her that could change any heart.Everyone rises as we walk by, honoring us. I take my seat on the Grand Alpha throne, with Katarina next to me. Adam is already seated.“Bring him in,” Adam says.They bring Rex in, and murmurs spread through the hall. Cyrus hesitates, but I give him a nudge, and he respectfully pulls Rex to his knees.“Are you aware of the charges against you, Alpha Rex?” Ethan steps forward.“Yes, Alpha Ethan.”“And why are you here?”“The Grand Alpha—my cousin—has accused me of abducting his weak human mate.”“Shut your fucking mouth!” I snap, unable to help myself. Katarina holds me back, restraining me from doing more.“And are you

    Zane“What is it, Zane? Why did you pause? What wouldn’t I like to hear?” she rushes out all at once. How do I tell her?Damn, this is hard.She steps back just a little, but her eyes never leave mine.“You were with her, weren’t you? Magdalena.”“No!” The lie bursts out before I can stop it.Damn it.Relief washes over her face as she exhales, slowly. “Then… where were you? All night?”“Hunting,” I lie again, forcing a straight face. “We were tracking wolf hunters.”The look on her face tells me she’s not pleased. She hates the idea of me hunting them. “That’s why I said you wouldn’t like it,” I add. “You wouldn’t want to hear that I was out hunting your faction.”She tucks a loose strand of hair behind her ear. “I get it,” she says. “We’re from enemy worlds. I wasn’t expecting anything different.”“Do you hate me, Katarina?”Her deep blue eyes find mine again. “No, Zane. I could never hate you.”She swallows. “I’m in love with you, Zane Christopher.”I stare into her eyes until I s

  • BITTEN BY THE ALPHA: ALPHA ZANE   CHAPTER 14: CAN’T REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED

    ZaneMagdalena called. She has an emergency. There’s no way I could’ve told Katarina I’m off to see her. It’s late, and she never calls at this hour unless she has to.We’ve been thick as thieves since we met at the Academy. How can I just ignore her now? Mating with Lina strained our friendship. Magdalena has been more of a beta to me since then. And now, there’s Katarina too. I don’t want to break my promise to her, but I can’t neglect Magdalena either. I ring her doorbell, and the door swings open.“Alpha Zane.”She’s wearing a provocative black nightgown.“What’s the emergency?” I ask, watching her with concern. She looks like she’s been drinking—and crying.Her lips curve into a smile. “Come inside. I’ll explain.”I follow her into the living room. She pours herself a glass of whiskey.“Magdalena, what’s going on?” She doesn’t seem to have an emergency, just a really bad day.She turns to face me, the liquid swirling in her glass. “I’m sorry,” she says, her eyes locking onto min
