OCTAVIA ADLER.

A feeling of newness filled me as my eyes glittered open and I didn’t realize how long I’d been asleep for until I picked up my phone and my eyes widened.

It’s way past noon! Hurrying, I sprung out of bed and took a quick shower before taking another Quick Look at Aidan’s closet and picking up a large T-shirt I could wear until I’ve gotten clothes for myself.

I didn’t want to go downstairs by myself especially after what had happened this morning but my stomach wouldn’t stop growling and my throat felt really dry.

Now that I think about it, I haven’t eaten or drank anything since I woke up this morning. My body felt rigid as the thought of walking past the guards and maids filled me.

They’d tried really hard to mind their business this morning but I was sure that they heard what happened because when I’d stormed back to Aidan’s room, I felt their eyes on me.

My stomach growled again and I groaned as I walked towards the door, my hand on the door knob, I took a deep brea

  • Betrayed by my mate, Claimed by his father   56.

    MAEVE HAWTHORN.We settled in nicely and by the time we were— I was— done unpacking, it was already evening and Enzo insisted that he was going to do the cooking.I watched as he stood in the kitchen shirtless, chopping vegetables with terrifying precision, muscles flexing as he moved while I sat on the table that was right in the middle of the kitchen and just helped myself to the free meal in front of me, smiling stupidly as I stared.When he was done chopping, Enzo walked towards the stove and stood there, sleeves rolled up to his elbows, the soft glow of the early evening slipping in through the wide windows and brushing over his shoulders, giving me more to look at.“He’s so fucking hot.” I said to myself, in my head, as my breath grew shallow, my heart thrumming really hard against my chest.“Ahh. I have a number of things for us to do tomorrow,” Enzo said, his voice jolting me out of my thoughts but I immediately slipped back into it.His voice sounded like music to my ears an

  • Betrayed by my mate, Claimed by his father   55. SAFETY?

    AIDAN NIGHTINGALE.I hated myself for leaving her alone, for walking past her like it was nothing, for underestimating the intensity of our bond and how much it affected her.My legs felt heavy even though Octavia felt like paper in my arms, I hated how much pain I was bringing to her and the fact that I’d convinced myself I could control everything.The fact that I thought an artificial scent or something as stupid and unheard of as partially cutting off the mate bond was going to control everything— her pain, her shift, her desires, her safety.I was a fucking fool. A fool for leaving her to herself when it was painfully clear that she needed me the most at that moment.Her blood gushed hotter against my wrist, and I almost stumbled. I could feel her pain, the agony that coursed through her, the guilt she was going to be ridden with by the time she woke up….I felt every damn thing.“Focus.” I muttered to myself as I walked and each step felt like I was sinking through wet concrete.

  • Betrayed by my mate, Claimed by his father   54. MY FAULT.

    AIDAN NIGHTINGALE.My mind was barely on the road, I’d intended to go take someone out on my own, without my men, by myself but I could barely think about it.Everything ended the moment I got there. Too weak. Way too weak to satisfy the burning rage inside of me and on my way back to the house, I’d gotten the call.“She shifted?!” I couldn’t believe it, even the priest had told me that Octavia shifting was going to be very difficult especially if I go through with partially severing the mate bond.The bargain with the moon goddess wasn’t an easy one, I felt like I was going to die, my world was bleak but I needed to go through with it for her sake but still….It doesn’t feel enough and now, my second in command was telling me that she had shifted and had gone berserk.“Stop her from getting out,” I ordered as I drove like a mad man, unable to control myself and if the moon goddess hadn’t shown me her mercy, I knew damn well that I would have been dead a thousand times over.“And what

  • Betrayed by my mate, Claimed by his father   53. BLOODSHED AND GUILT.

    OCTAVIA ADLER.The voice sounded so distant yet I could hear the fear that coated the voice. My heart pounded so hard it was hard to believe that it wasn’t also trying to escape this excruciating pain.The scent hit my nose and even though it was familiar, it wasn’t. I knew immediately that it wasn’t Aidan but somehow, whoever it was still smelled like him, probably because they spend so much time together.“W… Who. Is. It?” I managed to ask, each word grinding between my teeth as they made their way out. My teeth clattered as I lifted my gaze, the bond was brutal, punishing with no hint of mercy.There were two different people bonded. Two different wolves but somehow, I’m the one on the receiving end of the pain that feels as though it wasn’t going to stop until it had sucked every air out of my lungs.“Who is it?” I repeated the question, my throat burning and the pain starting to subside although I could already feel my wolf taking over, getting crazy as my nails scratched the til

  • Betrayed by my mate, Claimed by his father   52. CRAVING HIM.

    OCTAVIA ADLER.“D— Do you want to go to the gazebo?” Brittney’s voice made its way into my subconscious, it was laced with worry and when I lifted my gaze to look into her eyes, the pity still lingered but it was mixed with a heavy worry.“I know that you’ll feel a little bit better if you go out for fresh air,” she added with a smile that didn’t quite reach her eyes. We might have just become friends but I knew how much she was rooting for Aidan and I.She was also the only one of the maids that didn’t try to shame me because of my relationship with him and I hated that I was worrying her.“Also, the priest already sent the potion so I don’t think you’d get a backlash from the mate bond.” She finished and I nodded in fake agreement.Deep down, I knew that no amount of potion could possibly mend what I was feeling now, it’s no longer the mate bond, it’s the mate bond and my own self pity.I shouldn’t have said what I said. Shouldn’t have done what I did. Shouldn’t have told him to giv

  • Betrayed by my mate, Claimed by his father   51. PAIN.

    OCTAVIA ADLER.My blood ran cold and I could barely move, I was frozen in place, he had just walked past me like I was nothing, like he couldn’t see me but I knew…. I knew he saw me just as clearly as I’d seen him.My body, as if having a mind of its own, turned around and I only stared, my eyes boring holes into his back as he walked farther and farther away from me.“Please look back…. Please…. Look back.” I had no idea how much I desperately wanted him to, how badly I wanted him to look at me just to know that he saw me but he didn’t.Aidan didn’t spare me a glance until I could no longer see him again and my eyes burned, his scent still lingered, awakening and undoing something in me at the same time.I could feel my wolf rearing to go, clawing at my ribs and screaming at me to just bolt behind Aidan, to follow him but what could I do? Run behind him like a needy puppy?My palm balled into a fist and I could feel my nails digging into my skin, I could feel the metallic taste of bl
