Marked for Ruin: The Alphas’ Rejected Mate Kade
KADE“That’s very optimistic, Kade,” the head seer said when the noise died down. “I don’t mean to be disrespectful to what you’ve been through, but I understand that you’ve had quite the experience, and it can be very challenging to…”“Don’t patronize me,” I interrupted, annoyed that they had the guts to find humor in a situation like this.I didn’t understand what I had said that was so amusing, and furthermore, the attempt to reference my experience as a way to buttress whatever point he was trying to make felt insulting. I didn’t wake up and suddenly become hopeful that we could beat the odds simply because I had been unconscious.I had spent hours researching and trying to get to the bottom of this, and the last thing I would do was allow anyone to make me feel or seem like a joke for my efforts. He started to say something, but I raised my hand and slowly looked at everyone seated in the room.“A few minutes before I walked in, you were all screaming like people who had no clue
Marked for Ruin: The Alphas’ Rejected Mate Kade
KADESoon I realized that these assassins weren’t being sloppy by leaving items behind; they wanted to be known as the people carrying out these accidents by those who knew how to identify them.We had a couple of psychopaths on the loose, and we had an entire pack to protect. I laughed at the sheer ridiculousness of everything, and someone shushed me from a couple of rows away.I rolled my eyes, grabbed the reports, and stuffed them into my bag. I had to go through them one more time to see if there was anything different I’d missed. I thought about Lucian and wondered how his plan was going.At some point, I had to talk to him about the information I’d stumbled upon, but with him being gone, there was something else I could do: get everyone training every day so we wouldn’t be surprised when we needed to defend ourselves.It was evident that these people—whoever they were—had a vendetta against us, and the more time we wasted hiding and trying to understand what was happening, the m
Marked for Ruin: The Alphas’ Rejected Mate Ella
ELLAWatching Lyla leave hurt me more than I imagined. I half-expected to see Lucian waiting outside, but thankfully, he was nowhere to be found, although his presence would’ve reduced the amount of time I had to stand on the front porch watching her walk away.Once she was out of sight, I turned around and stepped into the house. The silence was a cold reminder that the sense of familiarity and comfort I’d felt while she was here had disappeared with her.I started making my way to the stairs, heading straight for my room, when I heard muffled voices in the kitchen. I had initially thought that May and I were home alone, but the voices seemed to be arguing, and I could tell it wasn’t her.Perhaps they had slipped into the house through the back door, but that was unlikely since I hadn’t heard any car park.I tried to put the thought out of my mind and started walking up the stairs, but then I remembered Lyla’s words about how things were odd here. For a moment, I considered the possi
Marked for Ruin: The Alphas’ Rejected Mate LUCIAN
LUCIAN“Who’s asking?” the man who had spoken earlier said, and I turned my gaze to him. I could tell he was the one I was looking for by his gait and the way he seemed to command the respect of the others—and possibly everyone else in the room—even if he wasn’t doing anything significant.“Hello,” I replied and scanned the group, which was made up of seven people. Excluding the bodyguard, there were four men and three women, all of whom seemed to be watching their environment earnestly. “I’m…” I began, but decided against saying my name.I didn’t know who they were, and while introducing myself was the polite thing to do, I still remembered that I needed to stay cautious.Danger was lurking at every corner, and the sensible thing to do would be not to walk into it with my eyes open. “I was sitting at the bar having a few glasses, and the bartender, Martell, told me you had picked up my tab. I just wanted to say thank you.”“Oh, you don’t need to do that. We saw a man sitting alone an
Marked for Ruin: The Alphas’ Rejected Mate ALL BETS OFF
ALL BETS OFFLucian glanced around the room and rolled his eyes. Lyla had said she wouldn’t be gone long, but he was sitting alone in a bar and time seemed to crawl past slower than he’d like. He turned his attention back to the bartender, who was taking off his apron and rolling up his sleeves.“You’re leaving?” he said, and the bartender nodded.“My shift is over,” he replied, smoothing his shirt. “I could whip up something for you before I leave,” he added with a smile, and Lucian shook his head.This was his third glass and, in his opinion, that was more than enough. “I think I’ve had way too many, to be honest,” he replied, and the bartender chuckled.“Light drinker?” he asked, and Lucian smiled.He was the furthest thing from a light drinker, but the last thing he wanted to do was get inebriated when he was supposed to be on lookout. This trip wasn’t for leisure.With everything that was happening around him, alcohol would’ve been a great way to escape his reality for a few hour
Marked for Ruin: The Alphas’ Rejected Mate LUCIAN
LUCIANEverything that had happened from the moment I set foot in the Montgomery house took me by surprise, and it took a lot of willpower not to show that I was rattled.I had expected Lyla to show some sort of emotion other than what she had displayed, but that wasn’t forthcoming. When she decided to follow me to La Derte, I knew that choice would come at a cost, so when she asked that I explain everything to her, I wasn’t caught off guard.I had told her what she needed to know, or at least what I thought was necessary, but repeating what had happened to someone who was seemingly neutral in the grand scheme of things helped shed light on a few gray areas.For one, she was right about my approach with Ella. I had gone about things the wrong way, and I needed to find a way to initiate a conversation between us—something geared toward cordiality. I wasn’t necessarily apologetic about what I had said, because that would mean admitting I was wrong.In retrospect, the only thing I was wr
