My True Mate CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY EIGHT
“What do you mean?” My voice rises sharply. However, her eyes go back to purple and she thumps her chest, “She’s empty inside. She doesn’t smile at all. She’s not like she used to be.”I kiss the top of her head, partly in an attempt to comfort her and partly to hide the wetness in my eyes. “Sorry,” I murmur.She’s quiet and then she says, “I have to go to class. But I’ll see you at dinner, okay?”She wriggles out of my hold and rushes off. Picking up Fergus, I look around at the small nursery. I know for the next two three days, he will be allowed to sleep with me in the suite I always stay in. I cherish these days in which I can play with my son, get to know him and my eyes always thirst for Sarah.I know the way to my suite and I carry my son there.My things are already set up and it’s as I’m settling down that there is a knock on the door. When I open the door, it’s to see another familiar face. “Ezekiel,” I nod at him.Ezekiel, the Alpha of the

Ezekiel studies my face, “You look upset.”My jaw clenches and unclenches, “Are you serious? Sarah-““Sarah needs to move on. She needs to find somebody who will love her and allow her to heal in their embrace. Since you want to just lick your wounds and feel sorry for yourself, you’re clearly not the right person.You’re too busy playing the martyr to be any kind of support for her.”His words are a punch in the gut for me but I don’t deny them.I stopped trying to reach out to her, to try and beg her for forgiveness because I convinced myself I wasn’t worth her forgiveness. But to force Ezekiel to look at myself in the mirror is a bitter taste in the mouth.“My priority is my granddaughter,” The older male says, his voice stern, as he gets up. “There are many good men here who would keep her happy and never dare to betray her.”I almost stagger as I watch him leave, my gut twisting painfully.Watch Sarah be with someone else?The anger is a burning intensity in

She goes still at my words.“Please leave,” Her reply is quiet.I kneel by her side, looking at her, “Sarah, I can’t go on like this. I know what I did is unforgivable. But be angry, punish me, hate me. But just come back.”Her hands tighten around the arms of the chair, “I don’t hate you. I know you were being controlled.”“If that was the case, you would-““I’m tired,” She finally looks at me, her eyes hollow. “I’m tired of everything. I’m tired of fighting. I don’t want to do this anymore. Just go and be happy.”My voice breaks, my heart cracking, “How am I supposed to be happy without you in my life? I have been living in hell since that day that creature walked into our den. Every word, every action is imprinted into my brain. Everything I did to you is - I was a bastard to you but I never meant it. I can’t do this without you, Sarah. I can’t do any of this without you. I’ll-““Stop,” Her hand curls into a fist. “I’m not coming back, Lucas. This is my home now
My True Mate CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY ONE
Seeing Sarah smile, even if it’s a tiny smile, at another man, it’s like a punch in the gut for me.For a moment, all the air leaves my body in a vicious manner. I stare in her direction, my grip on Fergus tight as my body trembles.‘She’s not smiled even once.’That’s not true, I think to myself, the pain a raw gnawing feeling within me. There is someone who makes her smile. It’s just not me anymore.The male puts his hand on her shoulder and she doesn’t remove it.Almost as if she’s used to it.I hear the crackle of thunder and Fergus lets out a distressed whine.Even all the way across, Sarah immediately shifts and her eyes meet mine.I feel numb as I stare at her, the sight of his hand on her shoulder making me feel cold inside. For the first time, I feel all alone. Till now, there had been this small hope, this desire that maybe things will work out between us but Sarah has clearly begun to move on.Maybe that’s what she had meant back then. She
My True Mate CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY TWO
The wolf shifter is taken to the infirmary, a difficult feat considering the raging snowstorm. However, he had managed to trip some alarms when entering the territory so help had arrived pretty quickly.“Who is he?” I ask, leaning against the wall outside the infirmary.Ezekiel who had just walked out looks troubled, “An old friend. And old pack mate.”I hear the clicking sound of shoes and then another man enters the waiting room and I nearly jolt in recognition.He’s the same man who had approached Sarah in the forest. The one she had smiled for. Up close, I see that he is a handsome man with a gentle face.“Any update, Peter?” Ezekiel asks.“Your wolves tracked him all to the border and past it. I’ve sent a few of them to follow the trail but most of his injuries are old. A few days old. His healing was slow though.”“Poison,” Comes a heavy voice from behind us and I look over to see a female healer standing there. “His injuries are grave but he’s regained c

The growl that leaves my mouth has everybody looking in my direction.“Sarah can’t go. She can’t shift!”I see Sarah flinch and then her eyes turn dull and I immediately realize that she has mistaken the meaning of my words and I continue, hastily, “She can get hurt! We have a son! He needs his mother! And sending Sarah to what is a war zone is not a feasible idea. She may be experienced but she is also very young. You are talking about a full fledged battle zone.”The soldier that Sarah had smiled at before nods, “I agree. Putting Sarah in danger is unnecessary.”“She goes,” The Phoenix looks at me, unbothered. “Without my guardian present, I can’t control my powers.”I take a moment to process, that, having never known that before. “If the Phoenix goes, then our odds are better,” Ezekiel admits but he doesn’t seem very willing to send Sarah in the face of danger.A discussion erupts while Sarah just sits there quietly.Finally, as it begins to get heated, she
My True Mate CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY FIVE
“What was what?” I ask her, my tone a little light, this airy feeling of delight inside of me to have her talking to me.I can see the look of frustration in her eyes, “That little show that you put on inside. You had no reason to threaten Peter!”The slight happiness inside of me suddenly fades at her words.I stare at her for a few seconds, questions on the tip of my tongue, questions which will no doubt hurt my feelings. But I can’t help myself.My smile is small and bitter, “So, it was that easy for you to find yourself another man?”My words are sharp and I can see that I’ve touched a nerve with her but I remember that quiet smile she had given Peter and my heart aches. She opens her mouth and I take a step back, “I should go. Sorry about that.”My tone is a little more subdued but my heart is hurting too much. I feel like a fool, a lovesick puppy who had been hoping for …. Hoping for what exactly?My steps are hurried as I try to walk away from her and in my

When her question is followed by silence, I see her watching me through the rear view mirror.I just avoid looking at her.In my wolf form, I can’t talk to her and the link we used to have is long gone. Or at least, I’ve never tried using it.There’s a strange look in her eyes when I finally meet her gaze and she finally asks, “Shift back.”I refuse, silently. The only reason I got in the jeep was so that she would not freeze to death outside. I see her expression tighten at my stubbornness.“Fine,” She mutters.She starts the jeep and then stops it, pulling out the keys from the engine.It would be easier for me to simply shift back and ask her what’s going on in her head but I refrain from doing so. Finally, after a long few seconds, she says, “Peter is a friend.”I go still at her words and then before I can even think further, she is starting the jeep. Her voice is quiet, restrained in a way it had never been before, “You shouldn’t run out into a
