2025-02-23 17:07:00The party had been just as I had expected. Shit. Exactly why I had never wanted to attend. Watching Seren enjoy herself had been uncomfortable to say the least. And that had been before the fuckwit of a warrior had arrived. Once he was there groping her at every given opportunity it only became worse. But, for some inexplicable reason, I found myself staying. To begin with, it had been because I had been worried I had drawn suspicion to myself from my friend, and did not want questions being asked. Then, as time went on, the drinks were flowing freely, and I guess I stayed because it became easier, and a part of me stayed to keep an eye on things...
Even when the majority of the other guests had left, I stayed. Lingering near the drinks table, finishing most of the bottled beer that sat upon the table. I mean, it was there to be drunk, right? My Mum had long gone, having taken home my very drunk, and very sleepy Aunt Sophia. Now both crashed out at Aunt Soph

My whole body shook. Total shock had taken over me at what had just happened. That was not the guy I had been enjoying spending time with. Alejandro had always been so charming. He had spent quite some time trying to convince me to even spend time with him... never for a moment had he come across in a negative way. Surely tonight had to be the affect of the drink, right?My body shuddered at the thought of what he had just done... or more accurately what he so nearly had done. Clearly, nobody is who you truly think they are. Anyone is capable of changing to gain what they want, I realized with a sinking heart. I did not want to see him again. Though, for the time being at least, that was not going to be an issue. Alejandro had wasted no time in running when Lachlan had given that opportunity. He would have been a fool not to, listening to the anger in Lachlan's voice. Warrior or not, Alejandro would be no competition for Lachlan. I just hoped when the morning came, they dealt with him

I could feel Seren all but trembling within my arms, but I knew that effect was not down to me. That warrior she had near surrendered herself to had broken her. Had I not arrived when I did he could have taken everything from her. My whole body was trembling too, and it was not in fear like Seren’s. The trembling coursing through my body was in rage. Yet as Seren’s big brown eyes looked up at me, I could feel no anger toward her.Yes, she had been foolish. But, I hated hearing her call herself stupid. This was more a man trying to take advantage of a naive she-wolf. That warrior had known exactly what he was doing, and that infuriated me.“You need to be more careful, Ren.” I mumbled, seeming unable to look away from those eyes of hers. They were looking at me with such need right now. “We don’t want you getting hurt.” I told her. Regardless of any resentment I may feel toward her, the thought of Seren getting hurt really did t

I walked alongside Lachlan in almost a trance. The dealthly silence that sat between us beyond uncomfortable. Maia whimpered heavily at the way our mate had all but pushed us away, but I cannot say I was surprised at how he had reacted. The appearance of that wolf out on his midnight run was likely a relief for Lachlan. It had saved him from a moment of madness. How Lachlan had been acting had been so out of character it had taken me by surprise. It had felt so nice, and I guess, you could say, I had been swept away by the moment. But, I knew the second Lachlan reacted how he did he had regretted his actions...‘Do not say that!’ Maia whimpered again. ‘Did you not see the way he looked at us? He wanted us…’I sighed. I was not about to allow my wolf to try to convince me of things that simply were not there. Of course she was going to hope for our fated mate to want us. That was what every wolf would want. It was natura

Well, the vulnerable Seren did not last long at all, I have to say. She was back to sniping at me before we had even stepped foot inside of my house! Tyr was on at me about taking care of her, and as we walked, I could see such pain within her eyes, I was not able to be harsh with her. I knew my wolf was right. She had been through enough tonight, and needed somebody to be there for her. So, knowing her own mother was likely in no fit state to care for her tonight, and knowing her brother was currently ensconced in the arms of a random she-wolf right now, I thought the decent thing to do was to offer to be there for her and allow her to crash at mine.But, having her sniping at me that way again, I was truly beginning to doubt if it was the right thing or not. Yet, we were already arriving at the house. Not a time to turn Seren away now. I would just have to tolerate her. It wasn't like I wasn't an expert in that already. I walked into the house, and turned to look back at he

I walked into the kitchen, a heaviness in my gut at the realization of what I had just admitted to. I had no clue if Lachlan had known of my silly crush on him earlier in my teens. I had always tried hard to hide it. Lachlan was confident, and cocky as a teen, and I knew he would humiliate me had he known. Not to mention my brother would have been nothing but ashamed of me had he learned of it... But, just now, those words had slipped out without thinking, likely due to my tiredness. And, regardless of any potential backlash, I did not plan to stand and discuss it now, I knew that much. The past was always better staying in the past.I could tell my words had captured Lachlan's attention because the silence was deathly. If I could have had the earth open up and swallow me whole I gladly would have right then. Anything to escape this awkwardness... But, instead, I decided to try to change the subject. “You got any soda?” I questioned, breaking the

Initially I had wanted an answer. That had been all. An answer to when Seren had felt that way about me, and what had changed. The venom in her voice had bothered me. I knew I had treated her badly over the years, and continued to do so. In my mind, having every reason to do so. But, I wanted to know her reasoning for these feelings.But, the scent of her arousal had hit my senses, and nothing else mattered in that moment. My wolf and I could focus on nothing else. That scent was so overwhelming. I was instantly aroused. It had been some time now since I had been with a woman… and this was the scent of my own fated mate's arousal… arousal because of me. I could not simply walk away. I wanted her it seemed. And logic dissapeared in the moment, desire taking over.All I could see was Seren. The curves of her perfect body... and that scent... that scent was taking over my mind... I loved seeing the shock upon her face as I parted her thighs

My whole body shuddered under Lachlan’s touch. My core trembling from the affect of the orgasm he had created. His eyes held a deeper, darker glint to them as he studied my face now. “Did that feel good?” he murmured against my cheek, and I nodded, too breathless to answer. Still in complete shock at what we had just done. I had returned to his house because it was easier... and suddenly we were doing this? Yet, as wrong as it felt, I hadn't wanted to stop... it felt right too...Lachlan released a low throaty chuckle, as he allowed his fingers to tease slowly against my folds once again, my body melting under his touch, my entire skin flushed with heat, a stark contrast to the cold surface of the kitchen worktop Lachlan currently had me pressed up against.“You want more?” he questioned, and inexplicably I found myself nodding in agreement. Again, I knew this wrong. Something both of us may live to regret, but I also knew I did not want i

Seren’s kisses were turning out to be more than I could ever have expected. They were turning my body into one raging desire. This matebond had a lot to answer for. I don’t think I had ever looked at her this way before… had I? I don’t know. But, I knew that in this moment, and likely ever again, I was looking no where else. My wolf had been right, the affect she was having upon me was like nothing else I had experienced before.With every delicate touch of her fingers along my skin my body shivered with sheer pleasure… the need for her coursing through me. I had unhooked the delicate lace bra she was wearing, uncovering her entire body to me. Allowing me to see all of her. And she was, in short, perfect. I could see the nerves within her eyes as I took within her body, so I made an appreciative moan to let her know how much I liked what I saw. Seren had nothing to be embaressed of, yet she tried to cover herself with her hands, so I moved her

Fated but Hatedย ย ย Chapter 123 - Seren
Lachlan’s words meant a lot, and I could see the genuineness of them as he spoke. That meant as much to me as his previous apologies. I should have taken that opportunity to talk to him. Especially now that my mind was beginnig to feel like my own again, but my brother was sweeping me out of the cabin and toward the car before I could respond. Cole wanted me away from Lachlan, or away from the conversation that was developing. So, I was marched to the car. I had expected Lachlan to follow. Assuming he too would be ready for a break from the cabin. But, once again Lachlan did what Lachlan did best, he stayed away. Or, more specifically, he watched me walk away...I would not lie, there was an unexpected ache in my chest as I was ushered away the short distance to the car by Cole. Maia whimpered as she quickly realized the footsteps behind us belonged to Marcus and not to Lachlan. A brief glance back told me he had not stepped foot from the cabin. He was

I had walked away from their argument unable to listen any further. Anger bubbling beneath my skin. I wanted to say so much but knew it was not my place. Marcus and Cole already appeared to think so little of me, I did not need to make things any worse. So walking away seemed the better option. But I sat upon the chair on the decking looking out across the forsest. The front door remained opened and I could hear every word that was being said. Hearing Seren come to my defence shocked me to my coreโฆThe words of the man who was meant to be a friend invariably hurt, but, this was his sister he was trying to protect; and in his mind this was no more than I deserved. He believed I had treated her badly, and he wished to see me suffer. Yet Seren came to my defence time and again. Giving her brother the reasons why the things I had done were not as bad as they may seem.In truth, as I sat there and listened as our past was discussed everything hit home. Hard. It truly was as bad as it seeme
Fated but Hatedย ย ย Chapter 121 - Seren
Lachlan opened the door to the cabin, by brother and Marcus strode inside. Neither one looked happy to see him, nor did they acknowledge him as they passed him by to stand inside the living area. I had not wanted them here, but Lachlan had taken it upon himself to assume that I did. He had not answered my question, instead choosing to tidy up and avoid me at every opportunity. Which considering the size of the small cabin was quite a task…His eyes had expressed a thousand words the moment they met mine, which I think is why he had quickly averted his gaze, and moved away from me. He knew that I would be able to read his thoughts from his eyes. I knew Lachlan too well. In choosing to rush around the cabin occupying himself he was only silently allowing more secrets to be revealed. More things had been said between him and my family, I was sure of it, and one way or another, I would get to the bottom of it.“Aww, Ren, you look better.” Marcus offered

Seren was acting oddly. No. Not oddly, sultry. Needy. Not that she hadn’t been acting like she wanted me the past few days, because she had. She had been in heat. Wanting me was all she had had on her damn mind, but this seemed different. The alteration in her tone told me her wolf was pushing forward too. My own wolf had done that enough in the early days, I knew what it meant...Tyr may have been lingering here and there while Seren was here, but he was not back. Not fully. So he was not able to communicate with Maia I didn’t think, so maybe Maia was hoping to connect with me? Either way she appeared to want her mate.But her wanting to encourage the two of us told me something was off. She had always been quite supportive of Seren’s choices, but it seemed right now she was defending me. She was pushing for things to work for us. And while I would understand a wolf wanting it's mate, she knew how bad I wad for Seren. She knew the things I had done.
Fated but Hatedย ย ย Chapter 119 - Seren
I woke with a start, shocked to find Lachlan looking down at me, an unreadable expression upon his face. He was leaning against the wall of the cabin, his arms crossed, and those big, beautiful dark eyes of his were watching me intently. Should I be freaked out he was watching me sleep? Maybe... yet oddly, I found it almost reassuring... I rolled over on the bed to face him, stretching slightly as I did, and his eyes observed every slight movement of my body“What is wrong?” I questioned, noticing for the first time since my arrival here that the rush of heat upon waking had lessened. I had to hope that could only be a good sign...Lachlan offered me a questionable smile, before shrugging slightly. “Nothing, Ren. Why would something be wrong? I just came to check you were okay. You have been asleep a while.”I nodded. That seemed plausible. I had no clue how long I had been asleep. It felt like sometime since I had come

I walked back through the now familar trees surrounding the cabin,my phone to my ear. "So you don't think it was as strong?" I questioned.The supply drop had been completed a short while earlier by Colton, but I had waited until Seren was resting until Ileft the cabin to go and collect, as I had done each time previously. I did not want to leave her when she needed me, nor did I want any other wolf in close proximity to my mate whilst she was in heat. But, from what my friend was telling me, that may not be too much of an issue now."The scent has certain dissipated. I think another day and it will have gone. Is she feeling any better?" He asked.I chuckled. "I don't think she would tell me either way, Col, she is making me guess at best. Anything but admit she is struggling. Shows weakness, right? Seren will not let me think she is weak." I told my friend, who in turn began to chuckle too."Damn, that sounds like somebody I know. Hmmm,

Pain. Heat. Tenderness radiated through my body. As did warmth. No, not warmth, boiling, temperatures. Hours? Days? I did not know now. I was in a state of confusion. Agony. Discomfort. Sobbing. Screaming. Crying one moment, yelling the next… I did not like this. How was this a normal state for anyone or anything to be in?!‘Why won’t he help us?’ I wailed to Maia. She was our wolf, why could she not talk to his wolf? Surely he could convince Lachlan to surrender to the matebond again. He had done it before. This good-boy image did not suit him. If he would surrender to the matebond we could ease this pain. Put an end to this suffering. It may even bring us closer...‘We have gone over this. So many times.’ She snapped, and she was right. I had begged her so many times, and I had argued this point with Lachlan too. He was not about to give in to me. He was determined to do the right thing. Why he deemed this the ri

I saw pain and anger flicker across Seren’s face at my words. I had expected nothing more. I had known the moment I had chosen to say those things that it would be the last thing she would be wanting to hear. She had sought me out for a reason. I was her mate. She knew the relief her mate could bring when in heat. Angry with me or not, she was willing to bypass that to gain the relief she needed. But, I was not willing to sink to that. And, no matter the pain nor anger I was causing her, and hating that fact, I knew I had to do this. It would be too easy to give her what she craved. But it would be wrong. We were not together. Yes, we may be fated mates, but we had agreed not to be together. I had surrendered to the matebond before, and in doing so I had hurt Seren and regretted that massively.I knew she saw this as me trying to hurt her, but it was me trying to do the right thing. Thankfully, with Tyr being absent resisting her was somewhat easier as

My whole body burned. It ached like never before. And now added to that was the delectable scent of my mate. I am sure it smelled stronger than it had previously, or was that what happened when a she-wolf went into heat? He smelled divine, I knew that much. I was desperate to be close to him. Rip those close right off his body…But Lachlan had stepped away from me. And now his eyes were dark, with a frown etching his face as he avoided my gaze. What was wrong with him? This was not how I had imagined this woud go. The last time we had seen each other he had wanted to talk. And all the times he and I had been intimate Lachlan had been unable to resist. He was insatiable. My scent should trigger that, I was sure of it. I had imagined the moment he caught a note of my scent and realized I was in heat he would pull me to the cabin and rip my clothes off. Make up for the time we had lost. Ease the pain I was feeling...But, just now he had stepped away from me. That
