Amber sat in front of her dresser, letting out a quiet sigh as she applied the final touch of makeup.

She wore a red velvet gown that hugged her slender figure perfectly, accentuating her curves in all the right places. A slit ran up one side, revealing her long legs, while the plunging neckline offered a bit of cleavage, making her looked like she had just stepped out of a magazine cover.

  • Once His Mate, Now His Rival   Chapter 235

    Marcus didn’t stop, not even after the wall had long sealed shut behind them. Right now, nothing mattered more than getting Dana out of this cursed town. He had made a grave mistake bringing her there in the first place. He should have stopped her the moment she mentioned going to the Savage Tide Pack. He had believed they could reason with Dominik, that they could put an end to the ridiculous marriage contract. But he had been wrong. Very wrong.

    The color drained from Ashton’s face the moment he sensed Dominik’s aura spreading through the kitchen like a tidal wave.The air shifted.Oppressive.As though something unseen was pressing down on them.A glass sitting on the counter cracked with a sharp tick.He staggered back, his legs buckling as though they could no longer support him.“He… he’s here,” he choked out, his voice barely above a whisper as fear overtook him completely.Dana wasn’t left out.Though she no longer feared Dominik the way she once had, the knowledge that he was after her heart sent a cold, violent shiver through her bones.Her fingers trembled at her sides.Marcus was the first to break the silence, his instincts snapping into place faster than the others.“Quick. We need to get out of here. Is there a way out?” he demanded, his eyes locking onto Ashton.The authority in his tone cut through the panic like a blade.Ashton blinked, as if shaken awake, and quickly nodded. “Yes… yes, there is.”He forced hi

    An hour later, they found themselves seated in the grand dining room. Dana and Marcus sat side by side at the long mahogany table, its dark, polished surface stretching like a barrier between them and the men across from them. Opposite sat Dominik and his Beta, Julien, the distance between them do
