My mate's betrayal

SeleneAxel can't do this to me, I thought, on the verge of collapse.Axel and I were in a bad way, but I thought it was a bad season in our marriage since we had never, in our first four years of marriage, argued about anything. I never imagined that the man who claimed me as his own when I had my first shift would want to separate from me. I was in shock and couldn't stop my body from shaking, so the guard came over to help me. Seeing his eyes and pitiful expression, I knew immediately that everyone in the sanctuary knew what Axel would notify the council.I couldn't stop the tears from flowing harder from my eyes.“It's not the wisest decision, Alpha. There is no legal reason to remove our Moon or for you to divorce her. She is not just another woman; she is your mate, your fated mate, the only woman who can make you happy,” Aria said, and I almost broke down listening to her. “We have to understand the reasons for you to make such a drastic decision. Selene Moon has done invaluab

SeleneI had forty-eight hours to leave Crescent.“Are you okay?” asked Ennio, and I denied it with a sad smile.“No,” I said truthfully, and Ennio looked at me sadly. “I need to pack my things and leave Crescent quickly.”“I'll take you to the Alpha's house,” Ennio said seriously. “No matter what happened in that basement, I'll have the compassion no one seems to have.”I got in the car, and once I was in the back seat, I couldn't help but cry.It was enough for me to walk into the house with a swollen face for Mara to run to where I was; she looked worried. It was Beth, who, when she came out to see me, had a pained expression on her face.She noticed that I was no longer inside the pack's group communication link.“What happened?” asked Mara quickly.An hour after I had explained to Mara and Beth what had happened, I was packing my things into suitcases and boxes. They were both as devastated as I was. They were witnesses to the love I felt for Axel, so they could understand the pa

Izan“Who is she?” asked Ralf with concern.It was then that I realized that Ada had brought him with her.I didn't answer because I didn't even know what to say. I had no idea who this woman was or how she had made it all the way to the warm forest. It was a mystery how she was able to break through the magical barrier.I shook my head and swallowed hard.“Ada, please take us to the hospital,” I begged the gnome, and she nodded.Hurry!Sirhan's urgency was making me more nervous.“Help your Alpha hold his mate well,” Ada said to Ralf, and he looked at me in surprise.He knew very well what the appearance of my mate meant, what that represented to me in every way. It was difficult not only to take in but also to process.At that moment I was aware that the curse scars on my chest began to burn.That was not a good sign.“We don't have time for you to be impressed, you silly wolf,” Ada said, and Ralf immediately walked over to me. “I'm going to get a stretcher and a neck brace to hold

Izan“I—”I couldn't speak; my mate's first reaction to my voice was to close her eyes tightly and tense her body. At that, I was speechless.My grandfather cleared his throat, and Bella, as wise as only she could be, decided to put me out of my misery and help my mate.“Hello, cutie,” Bella said in such a delicate voice that I was surprised. “You're in the Eclipse Pack; our Alpha found you in the forest, and then you fell and hurt your head. How are you feeling? Are you in any pain?”My mate looked at my grandfather suspiciously, and my grandfather raised his hands high in surrender, then put them behind him and backed up several steps. I immediately noticed my mate's gesture of relief, and it made me very nervous.What kind of fears does she have that she reacts that way?That was the question Sirhan and I asked each other.I was about to open my mouth to ask it when she decided to speak up.“My head hurts,” my mate said in a hoarse voice.Hearing her speak was like a balm to me.“I

AxelTough decisions build character.It was a phrase repeated by each of the Crescent Alphas, my ancestors, over the generations. My father would whisper those words even in his sleep, and they became a mantra long before and during the war, when the situation in the South was complex.My mother said the phrase was a defining one in my family, and I never understood its meaning until I was forced to make a tough decision. "Hunt Selene. Don't come back without her," I ordered an elite squad of trackers that night in the woods when I couldn't find her.When I got home and saw Clare weak, recovering from the poison, I felt all the pain of the broken mate’s bond.At that moment I understood that the hardest decision had not been to reject my mate or exile her from the only home she knew, but to have to choose between making her a slave in my service or killing her for attempting to murder the mother of my child.Mal growled angrily at my thought.I was only hurt that I had to send to hel
