Marked for Ruin: The Alphas’ Rejected Mate Ella
ELLAMy eyes flew open, and I instantly sat up. I looked around and heaved a sigh of relief when I realized I was finally back in the warehouse. I turned to look at Claire, who was watching me with keen interest, and for a split second, I felt like one of the pets she attended to in her office—a lab rat of sorts.Her eyes held different emotions, excitement and dread being the primary ones.“Your heart rate spiked. I kept trying to get you to calm down, but I don’t think you were hearing my voice anymore. What happened?” she asked, and I swallowed.“Lucian’s coming,” I said, as the memory of him realizing I was in his head flashed in my mind, filling me with dread.“Your heart rate’s spiking again,” she replied, and one of the machines started beeping loudly. I looked at the machine and frowned.Had it always been here, or did she have it brought in midway through the process? I couldn’t think clearly, and the machine only beeped louder by the second, which was beginning to aggravate
Marked for Ruin: The Alphas’ Rejected Mate Kade
KADEThe meeting with the council hadn’t gone as expected, except for the fact that I met Lucian yelling at the elders. That was bound to happen at some point; he hated their guts as much as I did and never missed an opportunity to express his contempt. I, on the other hand, had bigger fish to fry.They could bicker all they wanted, but I was connecting dots I would’ve never considered possible in this lifetime. Then again, I wasn’t surprised things were going the way they were.Nothing about our lives as werewolves had ever been simple or a walk in the park. I’d give anything for that to happen, but if wishes were horses, every Tom, Dick, and Harry would ride.The image of the box underneath my bed flashed through my mind as we took a left turn. That was another problem I had to deal with, and it wasn’t one of those things I could talk about.How would I explain to my brother that I knew about the murder weapons and leave out the possibility that I had a direct link to the murder?I
Marked for Ruin: The Alphas’ Rejected Mate Lucian
LucianEverything seemed frustrating, and it annoyed me to no bounds. The council knew the source of our problem, and rather than point us in the right direction, they clammed up.If I had known that our enemies had a better skillset than envisioned, our patrol evenings would’ve been spent learning more about them and getting ready.“I’m not sure I believe all of this,” I muttered and kicked a rock as the air blew gently against my face.“I think you should,” Kade’s voice rang from behind me. I hadn’t heard him step out of the building, and to be fair, I had left to find time to cool off, so I wasn’t really paying attention to anything else.“I can’t believe you think anything they said in there made any damn sense! It’s…” I began, and he waved dismissively, then walked to the car in slow strides.“I’ve had time to think about it and do some research. If I’m on the right path with this, then we’re in for a ride. I didn’t want to believe it when the seer brought it up, I still have my

ELLAOne by one, the members of the council recounted the details of the pact they knew. Each person’s statement left me more stunned than the last.Every time Lucian glanced in Kade’s direction, I saw his expression alternate between annoyance, disappointment, and something else, an emotion I couldn’t quite label, but one that clearly wasn’t the rage pulsing through him.As the council members spoke, I recalled the vision I had earlier, my ancestors making an agreement with the Blackthorns.I hadn’t fully understood what I’d seen at the time, but now, hearing them recount the events in various ways that all led to the same conclusion, everything started making more sense.We had made an agreement with them, and they had failed to uphold their end of the bargain. They had a reason, of course, but to me, it was flimsy, based on emotion, not truth. They hadn’t even verified the source.“So you’ve known what we were dealing with this entire time and said nothing?” Lucian demanded, angril

KADESomeone had put in effort to find these, and they didn’t send them to the police, they sent them here, with a note. It could only mean one thing: they knew about my involvement in the matter and were probably going to the police or gearing up for blackmail. I fished out the note tucked in the corner and read what was written on it:Don’t lose them again – M.C“Is it what you wanted?” my mom asked. I placed the note inside, backed away from the box again, then instantly faked a calm expression before turning around to meet her gaze. I didn’t hear her walk into the living room, which added to the initial shock of seeing the items.“Ye... yes,” I stammered. “Where’s Lucian?”“I don’t know. He didn’t come home last night. I thought you knew,” she replied and arched an eyebrow.“He went patrolling last night. If he’s not back yet… he’s probably at… a meeting with the council. Please, Mom, can you drop me off?”“Definitely. Let me pack the picnic baskets,” she said and went back into t

KADEI got out of bed at the crack of dawn the next morning and made my way downstairs. The scent of pancakes wafted throughout the house, and I followed it to the kitchen.My mother was busy at the counter, mixing flour, eggs, sugar, and some of the other things scattered on the kitchen table that I was too distracted to pay attention to.“Morning, Mom,” I said and leaned against the door. “Sleep well?”“Hello, Kade,” she said with a smile as she turned to meet my gaze, then pointed at the pancakes. “Want some?”“Yes, please,” I answered and took a pancake from the bowl. It was still warm, but I shoved it in my mouth anyway and headed to the fridge to grab some milk.“You’re up early,” she remarked as I poured the milk into a glass. I nodded and chewed slowly, then sipped from the cup before responding.“I could barely sleep,” I said, swirling the milk in the glass.“Me too,” she answered. “I was thinking about that pact you asked about last night and decided to make some pancakes be
