(Piper POV)

It took me more than ten minutes to tell Xander everything that had happened at Wildwood Pack, and everything that had led up to that night. Xander gently held my hands throughout the story, and he quietly listened to the whole thing without interrupting or asking any questions.

In a way, it felt good to finally talk to someone about what had happened. I had been having a hard time making sense of everything on my own, especially my conflicting feelings about Leo.

Xander’s quiet

It is getting even harder to feel sorry for Xander… For what it's worth... this story WILL have a very happy ending, and I am VERY confident that you will like who Piper ends up with once everything is revealed. Please remember both of these things as we continue to go into some dark places in future chapters. I'll try to weave in some lighter moments too, but the betrayal pains are starting around the corner…

Looks like the reason Xander AND Leo are obsessed with her. That’s what the seer told Leo. Oh,,, this not going to go good for Leo as well, when Piper finds out. Oh, I’m dying to find out who her mate is, or if it’s both, who she chooses.

Xander has the nerve to speak to Piper calling her a whore. What is he a jerk who is supposed to be her best friends. Well they don’t treat you the way he has treated her for sleeping with Leo Bloodstone who saved her and didn’t desert her, like Xander did

Something is keeping her and possibly him from recognizing the mate bond so ANYONE could be her mate that she’s seen since turning 20. It’s a mystery for a reason.

  • Mated in the Shadow of Betrayal   Chapter 202: The Hidden Memories

    (Piper POV)When my father asked about the day Viper died, I wasn’t sure what to say. I almost immediately saw stars and the machines around me began beeping loudly.I felt myself beginning to disassociate from my body. I was there, but I wasn’t there. I could hear and see what was going on, but I couldn’t feel anything.Suddenly, doctors and nurses filled the room.“What is happening to her?” my father demanded in a panic.“Sir, what happened before we came in?” a nurse asked.“Nothing. We were having a normal conversation. We talked about …oh, goddess, we talked about ---”Just then, I saw Leo break through security and force his way into the room. “What is going on?” he growled. “She isn’t supposed to be having attacks anymore! What is happening?!?!?!?!?!”Hearing Leo’s voice brought back memories. Some good. Some horrible ones. And conflicting emotions that I didn’t want to deal with.I felt myself begin to panic. Unless I was already panicking?The machines spiked ag

  • Mated in the Shadow of Betrayal   Chapter 201: Daddy's Little Girl

    (Piper POV)As my father walked into my hospital room, I broke down in tears. Not just tears, but big, fat, ugly tears.I tried to get out of my bed and run to him, but my legs were still too weak after having been in bed for so long. I started to fall, but thankfully, my father quickly ran over and caught me.Once my father got me settled back into bed, he sat down next to me and held my hand.“Hello, my beautiful daughter,” he said warmly.My heart was racing. I could not believe he was here.“I … I thought… Xander t-t--told me… you died.”I saw a flash of anger cross his eyes.“I am very much alive, Sweetheart.”I wiped some of the tears from my eyes. “Why would Xander lie to me?” I asked. It did not make sense. Xander was my best friend. Or he had been. He wasn’t that cruel.My father frowned. “It wasn’t completely a lie.” I stared at him, confused.“You … you did die? And then they were able to revive you?”My father sighed. “No.”“Then what … what do you mean? Did y

  • Mated in the Shadow of Betrayal   Chapter 200: She's Awake

    (Eight weeks later)(Piper POV)I woke very slowly. I had no idea where I was or what had happened.All I knew was that the lights in whatever room I was in were very, very bright. I kept my eyes closed, not wanting to look at them.As I struggled to make sense of where I was, I thought about the last thing I had been doing before blacking out.The last thing that I remembered was being in my bedroom, laying on my bed, and then hearing Penelope’s voice. It had been so long since I heard it, that when she spoke, I got excited. Unfortunately, her words crushed me.***FLASHBACK***“I am sorry, Piper, but I think it is time for me to go,” she said slowly.“What? Nooooo! Penelope, no!”“The pain… it is too much… I cannot take it anymore.”I hadn’t even realized that we were having another attack. Attacks had become so frequent that I had almost become numb to them. Penelope was not so lucky, in part because –unbeknownst to me until it was too late—she had started to take on more o

  • Mated in the Shadow of Betrayal   Chapter 199: The Realization

    (Leo Bloodstone POV)I cannot begin to describe the rage that I felt when I received the call at 2 am.Piper wasn’t just in trouble; she was now fighting for her life.I did not understand what had happened. I had plans, and backup plans, and backup plans to the backup plans.And, although I did not know what she had gone through since we lost sight of her just before my alpha coronation ceremony, I knew she was now safe. We knew where she was; we knew who she interacted with; we had Dr. Eggert working with her; and we had guards supervising her every move.She should have been safe.Yet, despite all that I had done… despite all that Landon had done… despite the safety protocol that the council had invoked… we had failed.It was a realization that burned me from the inside out.As I headed to the hospital, I called Xander. He was awake, just as I had been, and I told him the little that I knew about Piper’s condition. I still distrusted the guy, but he had been Piper’s best friend

  • Mated in the Shadow of Betrayal   Chapter 198: Flash Forward

    (Present Day)(Dr. Eggert POV)It was at this point in Piper’s story that I had to make a critical decision.We had been talking for hours, but I felt like I was still light-years away from getting the information that I needed to help her.Yes, I now knew that she had a childhood crush on Alpha Xander, who was alternatively helpful and toxic… that she had a brief romantic relationship with Alpha Leo, who was controlling, manipulative, and filled with secrets… that she had a somewhat toxic friendship with Alpha Aiden, who was a case study all in himself… that she somehow got mixed up with a human motorcycle gang after an accident… and that her dead father wasn’t really dead. And I also knew about scent masking herbs and a magical engagement ring.But none of that explained why she had attacked the gamma wolf. Nor did it explain why she had been experiencing mysterious pain.Truthfully, I had no doubt that all of these events were somehow connected, but how? Therapists like myself a

Why don’t you tell us why you won’t accept the peace treaty between Bloodstone and Blue Ridge.”Alpha James growled again, but Luna Lily gently rubbed his cheek.“Darling, they aren’t the first a&&holes that I’ve had to deal with, and they won’t be the last.
