Elara’s POV

I sat cross-legged on my dorm bed, the dim light of my desk lamp throwing crooked shadows about the room. I sat, my heart pounding, staring at the forged document I’d discovered hidden in my desk drawer—an email chain, stiff and slick and official looking, naming me as the one who’d leaked the Vellex Pack’s secrets to the Crimson Fang, trouble making Pack had that had spent years trying to destroy mine. My vision blurred as panic clawed at my chest. Elara Blackwood, intel transfer, patrol routes. Who’d planted this? I threw it underneath my mattress, my hands shaking. What Damien found last night—a hidden camera trained on my desk, still haunted me. Someone was watching and plotting, and I was the target.

I leaned against the wall, my mouth gasping for breath. The camera had unnerved me, but Damien’s appearance outside my window, his wolf with his senses keen with urgency, ha

  • Mate Rebound    Chapter Forty Nine

    Damien’s POV~I squatted in the shadows of a run-down warehouse located behind the casino’s loading docks. The air was filled with the scent of rust and motor oil, but my wolf senses sliced through it. I had been following the movements of Bloodhounds for days, their silence was too deliberate, and they moved with purpose. Julian was scheming, and this place — gray, neglected — was where his secrets slept. My muscles coiled, as I lifted open a wooden crate, its nails groaning beneath the effort. Inside, packed in foam, were vials filled with shimmering liquid. Liquid silver. My blood turned cold, my wolf snarling within me. This was Julian’s pack work. I knew it in my bones.I took out a vial, its weight inexplicably light for the death it contained. Silver was venom to us, a weapon not only of murder but obliteration, eating away both flesh and spirit. Gideon’s shooting flickered through my mind—liquid silver. And now it was here, in Julian’s land, a betrayal so painful that it echoe

  • Mate Rebound    Chapter Forty Eight

    Julian’s POV~I was in the Bloodhound Packhouse, the study was a huge space filled with the stench of old leather aprons and my father’s cigar. A portrait of my father hung above the fireplace. His voice was loud, as he paced before his desk. “Julian, you’re trying to stall,” he growled, his black eyes burning into mine. “Vellex still stands, Damien is still breathing and all you’ve given me is excuses. Squash 'em, or I’ll throw you out of the pack, strip you of your title, the whole thing. You’ll be nothing.” His power sizzled in the air, a wolf’s command that made my chest ache, and my knees itch to bend.My hands suddenly balled into fists, fury running through me. I was his successor, not some minion. “Cut me off then!” I snapped, moving forward toward him. “You think I want your scraps? I’ll have Vellex myself, take it as my own!” My heart was racing, and I was so jacked up on adrenaline. Clenching my jaw, I met his stare and challenged him to do it.Roland tensed, then looked at

  • Mate Rebound    Chapter forty Seven

    Jasmine’s POV I was in my dorm hunched over my laptop. I had copied the USB drive’s contents, and now they displayed the secrets across my screen — decrypted files describing Dad’s transactions with a group called “Silver Veil.” The name made me shudder, cold and hard. There were dates, numbers, and coded references to “liquid assets” — there was a dreadful feeling that screamed in my head. Elara’s café plea about liquid silver, her parents’ deaths in her dream, and the poison that took them. I felt guilty for dismissing her, for placing my hopes in the belief that Dad was invulnerable. I felt like destiny—or the Moon herself—was toying with me, shoving me toward a decision I was not prepared to make. Was it fated that I should discover this and betray my blood? My phone buzzed, Dad’s name flashing on the screen. I hesitated, then replied, his voice in response was warm but clipped. “Darling Jasmine, come join me for dinner tonight. Seven, at the packhouse. Thank you for taking my pl

  • Mate Rebound    Chapter Forty Six

    Sabrina’s POV~I was standing in the bathroom of my hostel, grinning at myself in the cracked mirror and practicing my next move. The fluorescent flickered on, casting a sickly glow over my reflection, but I felt alive, alive for Julian’s plan to fall through. Making Elara's reputation a joke. I was going to distract Damien, and I’d be inches away from stealing his attention—his heart. But the arrest of Rosa, the Jules family’s maid, was a twist I had not seen coming. That had been golden, a way to divert attention and ensure our frame job on Elara would stay airtight. I pressed myself closer to the mirror, perfecting my doddle-eyed expression, the one that would make Damien realize that I was the one he wanted.I’d heard pack gossip on the campus about how Rosa had blamed Gideon Jules for her brother’s death that happened several years past, a grudge that grew into threats. If I c

  • Mate Rebound    Chapter Forty Four

    Caspian’s POV~I slumped over a leather couch in the packhouse, as I skimmed over a pile of reports on the Bloodhound Pack’s activity. The room was quiet, except for the crackling fireplace, the light from which made the wood-paneled walls dance. My laptop perched on my knees, its screen crowded with disturbing surveillance logs and scrawled notes about the Silver Crescent Casino. After Damien’s nagging questions about Julian, I had made up my mind to delve deeper, as something about that place didn’t feel right, and there just had to be a part we were missing. I found a coded message, hidden in a hacked email which read, Silver shipment, midnight, Crescent dock. Liquid silver. I felt my blood run cold. Julian and his pack were knee-deep in this stuff, I knew, and if they were selling that sort of poison, what Gideon had found out was only the beginning.I rubbed my eyes, the gravity of it pressing in. Revealing it to Damien was not a good idea—he was barely containing his temper

  • Mate Rebound    Chapter Fotry Three

    Damien’s POV~I was standing in my office at the university, papers were scattered across the desk—pack reports for the Bloodhound similarly detailing their movements, and a map that detailed news of their most recent movements. I’d been reading for hours, and my eyes were burning, and yet I couldn’t stop. I pushed the reports to the side and leaned back in my chair, rubbing my eyes. Elara’s face followed me when she’d told me, I don’t trust you, it had cut deeper than I was willing to admit. In my past life, I’d betrayed her, a bullet from me having taken her and our unborn child from this world. This second chance was my redemption, but it felt like every inch closer to her was like stepping on glass. She didn’t understand my history, didn’t experience the mate bond that still scorched in my chest, but I had vowed to protect her, even if she despised me for it.A text from Caspian fluttered to my phone: Bloodhound scouts seen by the casino. Stay sharp. I cursed under my breath. Th

  • Mate Rebound    Chapter Forty Two

    Sabrina’s POVI leaned against the chipped counter of my hostel kitchen, my phone lit up time and time again. Julian’s message shone up from the screen, Put a fake file in Elara’s dorm — something that links her to the Crimson Fang, a competing pack. Make it seem like she’s betraying Vellex's secrets. Damien will flip and she’ll be out of our way.My thumb hovered over the message, and my stomach twisted in knots. It was jealousy that had brought me so far and getting her accused of treason felt like something I couldn’t take back. If it failed, it would be me who would get burned.I threw the phone on the counter and paced the narrow room, my heels clicking against the wood. The hostel was silent, save for most of the other students, who had gone out for the night and left me alone with my thoughts. Then Elara’s face popped into my mind. I hated her for it, for upstaging me for the first time in my life. I was Caspian’s sister, the child of the acting Alpha of the Vellex Pack, I was

  • Mate Rebound    Chapter Forty One

    Elara’s POVI roamed through the college campus, my boots dragging on the cobblestone walkways, my mind weighing down on me much more heavily than the backpack strapped across my back. The fall weather was dry with the smell of fallen leaves. Memories of my former life tore at me—my parents’ deaths, the chill of their coffins, the whisper of liquid silver that had stolen them three days after my eighteenth birthday. I’d been reborn to rewrite that destiny, to save them. Dad's shooting, the venom in his veins, was a warning  of history that had returned to where it started. I squeezed my notebook more tightly, the pages full of leads that went nowhere.Jasmine’s dismissal at the café had hurt, and their refusal to help was a sign that I was on my own in this. I had put too much hope into that, in the slim chance that she knew something about her father and his involvement with the Silver Crescent Casino. Now, with no new leads and Dad still weak in the hospital, I felt I was being swall
