Agnes/Louisa

Ayana leaned back into her chair, her eyes growing distant. The silence between us thickened, only interrupted by the soft whirring of a ceiling fan overhead.

My fingers fidgeted against my thigh as I waited for her response.

Finally, she exhaled, low and drawn.

“It’s rare,” she said softly, her eyes fixed on mine. “Very rare. One in a million, perhaps. But yes….. there are times when two fated mates cannot break the bond unless one of them dies.”

My heart stilled for a second.

She continued, “It usually happens when the Moon Goddess has a divine purpose for them, something bigger than love.”

So that was why Scott wanted Louisa dead? Maybe he had tried to reject her but couldn't. But what purpose could have been waiting for the both of them?

I nodded slowly, not because I understood, but because I didn’t want Ayana to sense the panic curling inside me.

Beside me, Jace shifted, his fingers curling around the armrest of the chair. “Do you…” He hesitated, then turned toward

  • I Came Back For My Alpha and Mate   She is Gone

    ScottDr. Harris swallowed, his Adam’s apple bobbing like a trapped fish, then finally found his voice. “The CCTV… it’s down,” he said hoarsely. “There’s been a fault with the system for days now.”For a second, I thought Jace didn’t hear him. He stood frozen, head tilted slightly, eyes locked on the doctor. Then, instantly, he smashed his fist into the doctor’s nose with a bone-snapping force. The sound was brutal, sickening. A burst of blood sprayed across the white coat and onto the floor.Dr. Harris let out a high, strangled yelp as he stumbled backward, clutching his face, blood gushing between his fingers.“You bastard!” Jace roared. “You’re lying!”I moved instantly, grabbing Jace’s arm just as he raised it again for another strike.“Jace!” I shouted, shoving myself between them. “That’s enough!”His chest was heaving, eyes burning, nostrils flared like a wild animal. “He’s hiding something, Scott! I know it! Louisa wouldn’t just leave without saying anything!”“I know,” I sai

  • I Came Back For My Alpha and Mate   Not Another Mistake

    ScottShe tried to kiss me again, her lips brushing mine, but I leaned back and turned my head away.She blinked. “What’s wrong?” she asked breathlessly, her fingers still curled around the front of my jacket.I didn’t answer.My breath was ragged, my heart hammering. My hands dropped from her body and I stepped back, swallowing hard.She looked confused, annoyed. “Is it something I did?”I suddenly wasn't feeling like going on. This wasn't what I should be doing. I should talk this out with Louisa and find out if for sure she was in love with Jace. I shouldn't give up on her like that.This was the same mistake. The same reckless path that got Mia pregnant. Another impulsive thinking of mine, another regret waiting to happen. I had sworn never again and yet here I was, about to repeat the fucking cycle.As for the girl before me, it would have been fun to ruin her love story but was it even a love story to begin with? She didn't even hesitate.Well, I reached into my pocket without l

  • I Came Back For My Alpha and Mate   Whiskey and Wounds

    ScottI raised my glass to no one in particular before shoving the liquor down my throat. It burned like fire but it was fucking nothing compared to the ache in my chest.Sitting down in the bar was supposed to help ease my pain, yet my frustration only got worse.The music was loud, too loud. People were dancing, laughing, toasting like they had no worries. I couldn't blame them, life must be perfect for them, perhaps none of them ever experienced a bleeding heart.I felt like smashing something at mere looking at them, enjoying the peace and joy I deserved.Damn it! Louisa.I poured in another whiskey to my glass and downed all of it. I clenched my fist around the glass, dropping it off on the table.I took a deep breath, trying to calm my nerves. Then, shook my head, unable to process everything.How did she get pregnant for Jace? It's so fucking hard to believe. So she was cheating on me all these while? Oh shit!Can I truly blame her? I never claimed her, I never told that I love

    Agnes/Louisa "Scott!" Jace called out, but Scott didn't stop, nor did he look back."Scott!" He called again and followed him, hastening his pace.I took a breath of relief but my heart was still racing. Celine was right; I would be stronger in my original body and immune to all these emotions.How the hell was I supposed to concentrate on my plan and gather the ingredients I needed for the spell to kill an alpha bloodline if Louisa's memories and emotions kept surfacing?I have to find a way to stop her from surfacing or perhaps jump back to my original body.Oh Damn it! I don't want to do that. Neither of them would recognise me and it would affect my plans. Yes, I will be stronger but I wouldn't be able to break their hearts like Kaleb did mine.So no! I'm sticking with this body. It's just perfect.Jace's footsteps snapped me out of my thoughts as he rushed back in."I'm sorry about my brother's sudden outrage." He said, holding my hand. "We tell each other everything, so he is u

    Agnes/Louisa "What do you want to talk about?" I asked, forcing a smile."Well...a lot has changed about you, and as much as I like this change, I kinda still want to talk about it." He gestured for me to move to the bed with him, extending his hands to me.Then we sat. He placed his hands on mine, staring into my eyes. The way he pierced his gaze on me made my heart skip a beat. It was like he was studying my body reaction and I couldn't tell why."I really do like you a lot, from the first time I saw you in Leatherhead Pack, trying to pick up some groceries... I..."Instantly, I felt a piercing pain on my head. I tried to focus on his words, but the pain came again, exploding in my head and making my vision blur. I groaned, clutching my temples as the room spun around me. The sound of Jace's concerned voice now grew distant, a muffled echo in my throbbing skull.Memories began to flood my mind. I saw flashes of myself kissing Scott passionately, his hands all over my body. It felt

  • I Came Back For My Alpha and Mate   I Am Not Louisa

    Agnes/Louisa Celine’s head snapped up.Her eyes landed on me like a hawk spotting prey. For a heartbeat, she didn’t move. Just stared. As if her mind was struggling to reconcile the image in front of her.Then she shot to her feet.“You fool,” she hissed, voice like fire cracking “Aren't you a bloody fool.”A rush of power surged through the room. The flames in the candles flickered violently.“Celine you have to calm down, it's not what you think… it's not who you think.”“I’ve searched everywhere for you,” Celine said, stepping forward, her heels clicking against the stone floor. “And now you show up… just like that? Louisa King, walking into my lair on a damn platter of gold?”Before I could speak, I felt a force, hot and unrelenting, grabbed me by the chest and yanked.I gasped as my projected form was dragged across the room in an instant. My feet didn’t touch the ground. Celine’s magic pulled me until I was inches from her, suspended like a puppet.She leaned in close, her dark
