Cassian's POV

I watched my mate storm off, her shoulders stiff, her chin lifted just enough to hide the tears gathering in her eyes.

She was hurt.

I could feel it—sharp and aching—through the thinnest crack in our matebond. Where there used to be warmth and clarity, there was static now. Distance. Like something was deliberately muffling the connection between us.

Something felt... wrong.

I took a step forward without thinking.

Talia.

The name pressed against my chest, heavy and u

  • Mated To The Alpha Who Bullied Me   Chapter 296: you’re stuck with me forever

    Talia’s POV I stood in front of the mirror, staring at my reflection. “Is it like a wedding?”Nicole sighed, rolling his eyes for what had to be the hundredth time that day. “No, Talia.” He spun me around by the shoulders till I was facing him. “It’s a Luna coronation.”“I didn’t know that was a thing.” I whispered, playing with my dress. I felt an unusual stir of nerves.“It is. It’s ancient culture, not completely necessary but…” he trailed off. “It’s cute, I guess. Cassian had been planning one for you before…”Right.I straightened. But the nerves in my stomach didn’t die down.“You’re going to be alright,” Nicole reassured softly. “The pack loves you, you’re their hero.”I scoffed.“I don’t need their love.”Not after they abandoned me and turned their backs to me when I needed them the most.“You’ll grow to love them.”“I won’t.”He opened his mouth to argue when the door pushed open. Katherine’s head popped in. “It’s time.”I nodded. I looked at Nicole one last time.“W

  • Mated To The Alpha Who Bullied Me   Chapter 295: thank you for being my friend

    Cassian’s POV“So Mason, huh?”Nicole’s head snapped up, uncertainty flickering across his face.“Yeah,” he mumbled almost sheepishly. “I know he’s your nemesis and all, but—”I crossed my arms, leaning against the kitchen wall.Talia was still asleep—after I’d thoroughly worn her out last night—so I’d taken the opportunity to talk to Nicole.My best friend.“It doesn’t matter what he is to me,” I shrugged. “What matters is what he is to you.”His eyes widened slightly.“Does he make you happy?”Silence stretched between us.Nicole’s expression shifted slowly—surprise, longing, relief, happiness.Then finally—Something softer.Something almost sad.My chest tightened painfully.“Yeah,” he whispered. “He does.”I nodded once, an unfamiliar ache settling in my chest.We both knew what that meant.I wanted to argue. Wanted to convince him not to leave.Wanted to selfishly ask him to stay.But I couldn’t.Not when the heaviness that had haunted him for months was finally gone.Not when h

  • Mated To The Alpha Who Bullied Me   Chapter 294: you caused a bit of trouble

    Talia’s POV“How long was I out?” I asked Cassian as I pulled my clothes on.After another day hidden away in the woods, wrapped in each other, he had mindlinked someone to bring us clothes.He shrugged lazily from where he leaned against the tree, his arms coming around my waist the second I stepped close enough.“Two days?” He mumbled, pressing a slow kiss to my lips.I opened my mouth to respond, but he took the opportunity to deepen the kiss, his tongue slipping into my mouth like he couldn’t help himself.A soft sound escaped me before I could stop it.I kissed him back instinctively, my hands flattening against his chest.I didn’t know whether to push him away or pull him impossibly closer.His hand tangled in my hair as the heat between us thickened.I moaned quietly, feeling warmth pool low in my stomach.My wolf stirred hungrily.“Cass,” I breathed against his mouth. “We have to stop.”He stepped forward anyway, crowding into my space until my back hit the rough bark of the t

  • Mated To The Alpha Who Bullied Me   Chapter 293: your mark is gone

    Talia’s POVThe stretch was exquisite—almost too much, yet exactly what I needed. We both cried out, the bond singing between us as he filled me completely. For a second we stayed like that, joined as deeply as two beings could be, trembling with the intensity of it.Then he started moving. It was slow at first, giving me a moment to get used to the fullness again. After so long without him, my body had almost forgotten what it was like to be filled up. But the slow pace wasn’t enough for me. My wolf clawed harder. “Cass,’ I gasped, “more.”That one word was all it took. I could see the moment his restraint snapped, and he pulled out, almost completely. Then plunged in.Hard. Deep.A scream tore out of my throat, my hands coming up to his back, my nails digging into his skin.His pace was relentless.Each thrust slammed into me with the force of a man who had almost lost everything. I wrapped my legs around his waist, my heels digging into his back, urging him deeper. My nai

  • Mated To The Alpha Who Bullied Me   Chapter 292

    Talia’s POV I didn’t know how long we remained in that position. And I didn’t care to know. I was with my mate. His arms wrapped tightly around me, grounding me in reality. The warmth radiating off him seeped into my bones. His scent was stronger now, drowning out the scent of the forest around us. And the feel of his skin against mine— Goddess. It was different. Stronger. More intense. Like the bond had rooted itself deeper beneath my skin. My breath caught in my throat. “Are you okay?” he murmured softly. “You almost died.” I pulled back slightly, just enough to look at him. His warm eyes were already on me. Filled with concern. Fear. Relief. He frowned slightly. “Your eyes,” he whispered. “They’re green again.” Oh. Something settled heavily in my chest. Something dangerously close to disappointment. His gaze slowly drifted downward, settling on my sternum where the Goddess’ mark had once rested. His fingers brushed over the spot gently. “It’s gone too.” I

  • Mated To The Alpha Who Bullied Me   Chapter 291: tell me

    Nicole’s POVI stared out the window. “Still waiting there?” Mason asked from behind me. I turned slightly, offering him a small smile. A smile I’m sure didn’t reach my eyes.He sighed, stepping inside and shutting the door behind him. “You barely leave the room,” he whispered, coming up behind me. “I’m worried about you.”His hand came up to my bare back, at the spot where I’d been stabbed. I was fully healed now, but the poison had made it scar. A scar I’ll carry for the rest of my life. “It doesn’t hurt anymore.”“That’s good,” he mumbled. “But I wasn’t talking about the injury, and you know it.”I sighed, already knowing where this was heading.“They’ll be fine,” he reassured.“It’s been two days,” my voice cracked. “She needs to eat, she needs—”“She’s with her mate,” Mason cut in gently. “If anyone’s going to look after her properly, then it’s him.”Still. I had seen the desperation on his face before he had marked her, had heard her heartbeat slowly weaken. What if—A l

    The leader's face snapped. For a fraction of a second, his expression hardened in a way that made me feel very small. He struck me across the jaw so fast I didn't see it coming. The world tilted; a bright, hot bloom of pain flared under my skin. My cheek stung as if someone had slapped me with a re

  • Mated To The Alpha Who Bullied Me   Chapter 79: I just wanted to spend some time with you

    Before I could say anything else, the bell above the café door chimed. Cassian's head turned, and I followed his gaze just in time to see Alpha Kaden stride in, tall, broad, confident, wearing that too-perfect politician's smile that made every human in the room look twice. I frowned in confusion

    I woke to cold. Not the polite, morning kind of cold, this was bone-deep, clawing-cold that made my teeth ache. My mouth tasted of dirt and old metal. For a dizzy second I didn't know where I was; the sky above me was a hard, washed-out grey and tree branches stitched the light into thin bars. Th

    I hadn't seen Cassian since then. I didn't know where he was, so I didn't bother going back to the suite. I couldn't risk seeing him. I'd hidden away in the library, waiting for Mrs Alanna, but she hadn't shown up. It was nighttime, and there was nowhere to run.I considered going back home, but I
