Chapter 67: The Heir's Challenge

last update Last Updated: 2025-12-15 18:31:40

Maya POV

They wake me before dawn. No warning. No explanation. Just three guards yanking me out of bed and dragging me through the corridors.

"What's happening?" I struggle against their grip but the stabilizer hasn't fully restored my strength yet. I'm weak. Vulnerable.

"The heir has issued a challenge," one guard says. His face shows no emotion. "Eastern tradition. Before any alliance, combat must prove worth."

My stomach drops. "Now? I just got here."

"The heir chooses the time. You accepted the bargain. Now you face the consequences."

They pull me through the compound. Dawn light filters through the ancient stone archways. Wolves are already gathering. Hundreds of them. Lining a massive circular arena carved into the ground. Stone seats rise in tiers around the fighting pit.

This isn't a training exercise. This is a spectacle. Konstantin stands at the arena's edge, arms crossed. He sees me being dragged forward and his expression doesn't change. No surprise. No concern. He

  • MATED TO MY BULLIES    Chapter 71: The Sleeping Experiment

    Maya POV "I'm informed." She pulls out a small device. A data drive. "I've been stealing Konstantin's research for years. I know his plans. His timelines. His true goals. Those hybrids aren't meant to coexist with wolves. They're meant to dominate them." "Even if that's true, what choice do I have?" I gesture around the cell. "I'm trapped here. My mother is a hostage. I'm dying. The stabilizer bought me months but that's all. Konstantin offers me a purpose. A way to matter before I die." "You have another choice." Zara pockets the data drive. "Come with me. Now. I can teleport us both out of here. We rescue Elena. Disappear. Let Konstantin's plans die with his sleeping experiments." "He'll just find another way. Another source. He doesn't need me." "He does." Zara's voice is firm. "Your DNA is unique. You're the only successful live birth. The only one who's survived multiple transformations. Without you, those hybrids stay asleep. Forever." I want to believe her. Want to trust

  • MATED TO MY BULLIES    Chapter 70: Zara's Return

    Maya POV They take me back to my cell after I agree to Konstantin's deal. Two guards escort me through the underground corridors. Neither speaks. Neither looks at me directly. They've seen what I can become. They're terrified. The cell door locks behind me with a heavy click. I'm alone again. Just me and the weight of what I've agreed to do. I sit on the edge of the bed, head in my hands. Twenty hybrids. Twenty creatures made from my DNA. I'm about to help bring them to life. Help create an army of monsters. But maybe monsters are what wolves need to survive. The thought makes me sick. Hours pass. Darkness falls outside my small window. The compound grows quiet. I should sleep. Tomorrow they'll trigger another transformation. Rip my body apart again to harvest what they need. I lie down, close my eyes, try to find some kind of peace. Then the air beside my bed splits open. Not tears. Not breaks. The space itself divides, like reality is a curtain being pulled aside. Blue light sp

  • MATED TO MY BULLIES    Chapter 69: The New Species

    Maya POV They keep me restrained for two days. Strapped to the examination table while my body slowly remembers how to be human. Or wolf. Or whatever I'm supposed to be. Konstantin visits every few hours. Taking samples. Running tests. Asking questions I'm too exhausted to answer. He treats me like a specimen under glass. Something fascinating but not quite alive. On the third day, he finally releases the restraints. "Can you stand?" he asks. I try. My legs shake but hold. Everything hurts. My bones ache like they've been broken and reset. My skin feels too tight, stretched over muscles that don't quite fit right anymore. "Good." He hands me clean clothes. Simple gray pants and shirt. Prison clothes. "Get dressed. I want to show you something." "I don't want to see anything." My voice is hoarse. Raw. "I want my mother. I want to leave." "Your mother is safe. Comfortable. And you're not leaving." He turns his back, giving me privacy to change. "Not until you understand what yo

  • MATED TO MY BULLIES    Chapter 68: The Beast Within

    Narrator POV The creature that was Maya Rodriguez stood in the center of the arena, barely recognizable as anything remotely human or wolf. Her body had twisted into something between both species, something evolution never intended to create. Patches of fur sprouted irregularly across skin that rippled with exposed muscle. Her spine curved at an impossible angle, vertebrae pressing against flesh that struggled to contain them. Claws, longer and sharper than any wolf's, dripped with Alexei's blood. The crowd pressed backward, panic spreading through the spectators like wildfire. Parents grabbed children. Warriors reached for weapons. This wasn't the Silver Death they'd heard stories about. This was something far worse. Alexei struggled in the creature's grip, his enhanced combat training useless against the raw, chaotic strength pinning him. His arm bent at a sickening angle where Maya's claws had pierced through muscle and scraped bone. Blood pooled on the arena floor beneath the

  • MATED TO MY BULLIES    Chapter 66: Into the East

    Maya POV The stabilizer burns going down. Like swallowing liquid fire mixed with broken glass. I collapse against the cave wall, gasping, clawing at my throat as the serum courses through my veins. "Maya!" Elena's hands are on my face, checking my pulse, my eyes. "Breathe. Just breathe." But I can't breathe. The stabilizer is fighting the dying serum in my blood, two wars happening inside me at once. My body convulses. Black blood sprays from my mouth onto the cave floor. Konstantin watches with clinical interest. He doesn't move to help. Just watches. Taking mental notes like I'm a lab rat having a seizure. "Fascinating," he murmurs. "The stabilizer is forcing cellular regeneration at an accelerated rate. Her body is essentially dying and rebuilding simultaneously." "She's in agony!" Elena shouts. "Yes." Konstantin tilts his head. "But she's not dead. That's what matters." The pain peaks. Everything goes white. Then, slowly, it fades. The convulsions stop. My breathing stead
