I will update a few more chapters of the past, and then the story will be back to the present. I might not update the next part tomorrow, so please don't wait. A request: please drop your review and give a gem to my book. I want to know whether you like Monika and Ryan's cute chemistry or not. Thank you for reading.
Author Pov's .Ryan was searching for Monika in the entire pack to talk to her and convince her to reject him, and if she didn't agree, then he decided to trouble her so much that she ended up rejecting him on her own. He was looking for her everywhere to execute his plan, but what he didn't know was that Monika was one step ahead of him. To take revenge for her insult from Ryan, Monika intentionally started hiding from him, making him search for her and roam in the entire pack crazily. She even used perfume to hide her scent so that Ryan wouldn't be able to use Wild's power to find her.Monika was talking to a warrior at the border when she sensed Ryan's presence. She pushed the warrior aside and climbed on the tree to hide from Ryan."What are you doing?" That warrior yelled, looking at her shockingly after seeing how she climbed the tree like a monkey."Shut up and dare you to say a word to Ryan" she warned him, shooting him a deadly glare. He gulped and then looked in the direct
Author Pov's .Monika was glaring at Ryan and then she turned her head in another direction. Her cheeks turned red because of blushing. She never thought that someone could think of her like this and make her feel desirable."No... What the hell am I thinking? Why do I feel happy and excited after knowing he desires me? What is wrong with me?" Monika grunted and cursed herself for liking Ryan's intense gaze over her, making her feel something special and butterflies in her stomach."This is what happens when you love someone and he lets you know that he feels the same for you... that feelings are mutual from both sides. Mate bond is not a simple relationship, Monika. It is created by the Moon Goddess itself. We are bound to have feelings for our mate," Anika said, making Monika realise she was getting attracted towards Ryan. "I'm sorry... I utter nonsense when I get nervous" Ryan apologised, cursing himself mentally for letting out his thoughts shamelessly and making her uncomfortab
Author Pov's . Monika was looking at Ryan with teary eyes while he maintained an impassive look. "Why are you getting so clingy? At first, you were hiding from me so that I wouldn't ask you to reject me and then this emotional drama. Stop it" He scowled "Drama?" She asked and then shook her head, realising she had made a fool of herself by expressing her desire in front of a heartless person. She turned her head in another direction and sneakily wiped her tears while Ryan was feeling frustrated because of the mixed emotions he was feeling. He wants to reject Monika, but at the same time, there is a strange feeling in his heart, like he wants to hold her hand and never leave her. "Can't we stay with her forever, Ryan?" Wild asked, surprising Ryan. "What?" Ryan asked. "Please say yes... I want Monika and Anika as my mates," Wild said. Ryan looks at Monika, who hides her emotions behind a stern look. "I promised Aaron that I would give a true chance to this mate bond, and I'm givi
Monika Pov's.Back To Present.I was looking at my phone on which Gabriel was calling. I declined the call and took a deep breath."Monika" Anika opened her mouth to say something but I shook my head."Please don't say anything", I requested and clutched the bed sheet in both my fists, feeling suffocated as the harsh memories of my life started flashing in front of my eyes."Mommy" my eyes shot up when I heard Jenny's voice from outside. I rushed towards the door and opened it, only to find Ryan standing there, holding his phone with the speaker on. "Jenny is calling over your phone, but it was engaged, and then she called on my phone and asked me to give it to you. She wants to talk" I didn't even let him complete and snatched his phone from his hand."Jenny", I called her desperately, knowing if anyone could calm me down, then it was my daughter. She is the light of my dark life."Mommy" I closed my eyes and a tear rolled from my eyes when I heard her voice after so many days. Ev
Monika Pov's.I stood up from bed to go after Ryan and talk to him, but then I dropped the idea, remembering that I and Anika had decided to ignore him after our intense fight with him in the forest. I sat on the bed and sighed, unable to understand why and how things got so worse for us."I know you wanted to reject me from starting, Ryan, but why do you hate me for being your mate?" I asked him as if he was standing here to answer me."What do you think about talking to Ryan?" Anika asked, making me frown."Talking to him?""You promise our daughter that you will sort things out with him," Anika reminded me. I sighed and nodded."It's not only about the promise I made to Jenny, Anika. It's the necessary thing to do so. I have to mend things with Ryan before Jenny returns from her trip. I can't bring her into a toxic environment where she sees her parents fighting every day. I can't ruin her childhood and give her a lifetime nightmare, nor do I want her to think that her father is t
Monika Pov's."You're scaring me now, Moon... What happened?" He asked, breaking the hug and cupping my face."Why are you crying?" he asked anxiously when I didn't reply. I was about to keep my hand on his cheek but stopped when I saw my palm covered in blood."Ryan" I look at him, widening my eyes. He was so worried for me that he didn't even complain when I accidentally touched his wound."Yeah... I'm listening... Tell me why you're crying" He asked, still ignoring his pain for me. Tears were falling from my eyes non-stop."Yo---You were injured and I-- I doubted you... Yo---You" I wasn't even able to speak properly because of crying. He shook his head and wiped my tears."Hey...Calm down... It's okay... I'm not mad at you" He said. I shook my head."No... You... You are injured" I sobbed. I don't know why his injury is affecting me so much. It feels like he is not the one who is in pain but me."I'm fine... It's a small injury," He said, trying to calm me down. I didn't listen to
Ryan Pov's . I was looking at Monika who fell asleep in my arms while crying. It took me half an hour to calm her. Unintentionally, again, I became the reason behind her tears. "She was crying because we were in pain" Wild whispered as if Monika would wake up hearing his voice. I kissed Monika's forehead. "Shouldn't she hate us after how we behave with her?" I asked Wild. "Some people are like this only, Ryan. They don't know how to hurt or hate someone" he replied. I nodded and picked Monika up in my arms to take her to her room so that she could sleep properly on her bed. After lying her body on the bed, I was about to go, but she didn't let go of my arm, and when I tried to release my hand from her grip, she squirmed. "Dare you to wake her up" Wild scowled. I sighed and lay down beside Monika, waiting for her to go into deep slumber so that I could release my arm from her grip without waking her up, but what I didn't know was that I would fall asleep with her. "Ryan" I wok
Ryan Pov's .I gulped when Monika tightened her fist in anger and then turned her head in another direction."I can't believe this" She grunted and then started cursing me under her breath."You're cursing me in front of me only" I muttered shockingly."You can cheat on me and I can't even curse... Slow clap to you" She scoffed and took a step closer to me."You're feeling offended because I curse you.. what will you do when I break your junior for playing around?" She hissed. I gulped and took a step back. "It's not what you're thinking, Moon," I said and kept my hand on my cr*tch, knowing this woman could do anything."Stop moving" She snarled and took a step closer to me. I shook my head and took two steps back. She glares at me and shows me her claws."Stop all this nuisance, Ryan, because you don't know how dangerous and possessive I am. If I saw you romancing with her or any other girl, then you're dead," She warned me and then smiled when I nodded. She tapped on my cheek."Go
Author Pov's.Monika was searching for Jenny in the nearby place while using Anika's power, and that's when her mom mind-linked her."Jenny is back home," Olivia said. Monika took a relief breath and sat on the ground while crying, feeling like her soul had returned to her body. "Thank you, Moon Goddess…Thank you for keeping her safe. If something had happened to her, then I would've died,'' Monika mumbled, looking into the sky. She took a deep breath and wiped her tears. She stood up and ran back home, wanting to see her angel as soon as possible. The moment Monika entered the hall, she found Jenny sitting on the couch with her head down."Jenny" Monika called her. Jenny looked up and then ran towards her mom. Monika picked Jenny up in her arms and attached Jenny to her chest."Where did you go, baby? Mommy got scared for you. For a moment, I felt like someone took my heart out of my chest," Monika said. She broke the hug and looked at Jenny with teary eyes."I'm sorry, Mommy. I di
Author Pov's .Monika was waiting for her Mom in her office cabin, but her mother didn't show up the entire day, and when she tried to mindlink Olivia, she blocked her, which increased Monika's frustration and anger two times. "I just want to bang someone's head on the wall." Monika groaned and looked at the door when someone knocked, only to find her assistant standing there with a file."Come in" "Olivia, ma'am, asked me to give you this file" Monika scrunched her eyebrow in confusion as her mother never took an interest in office work."Put it on the table and ask Mom to call me when she gets free", Monika told her assistant, who nodded her head and left after bowing her head.Monika opened the file, and a low growl escaped from her mouth after seeing the pictures of a few men along with their bio-data. It didn't take her long to understand that Olivia sent these pictures as a marriage proposal."Mom" " she growled and cursed under her breath before picking up her car keys and s
Author Pov's ."Jenny" She ran back to her room before Monika could say anything or try to fix the damage she accidentally caused."Mom" Monika turned her head towards her mother. "she heard everything" "Go talk to her," Olivia said. Monika nodded and ran behind Jenny to her room. Monika was about to knock on the door but stopped when she saw Jenny lying on the bed, crying while hugging her teddy. Her tears were enough to twitch Monika's heart in pain. Monika wiped her tears and took a deep breath to calm herself. She went inside and sat beside her princess."Princess", She called Jenny lovingly, who hid her face in a teddy bear. "Princess.. Please look at your Mommy," Monika muttered, feeling her voice getting heavier because of the tears she was holding in front of her daughter. She pulled Jenny into her lap forcefully when Jenny didn't look at her despite her continuous request. Jenny hid her face in Monika's chest while sobbing in the same way as Monika did before with her mo
Author Pov's .Monika was trying to engross herself in work, sitting inside her cabin, not wanting to think about Ryan, but nothing was working. Ryan's face, smile, eyes and the moment she spent with him were ruining her peace of mind. At last, she closed her laptop frustratingly and went back home."You came at the right time… Let's have dinner" Before Jenny's mom, Olivia, could finish, Monika went towards her room, not wanting to show her distressed face to her mother."What happened to her?" Monika heard her mother mumbling to herself because of her amazing hearing power but she didn't stop. She closed the door of her room with a thud and sat on the couch, breathing heavily."I wish I could tell him I wasn't playing any victim card, but my destiny made me a victim," Monika whispered and an unwanted tear rolled from her eyes when she realised how doomed she was when it came to love."It's okay, Monika… You're strong. Stop crying like a weakling" She motivated herself and wiped her
Author Pov's .(Flashback continues after 5 years of Ryan and Monika's separation and one month before Monika and Ryan's marriage).Monika was sitting on a chair in her office, working on her laptop, when her mom, Olivia, dashed inside her office fuming in anger."What are you doing here?" Olivia shouted, startling Monika who stood up from her chair."You scared me, Mom" She kept her hand on my chest to calm her racing heart. "Why are you looking at me with so much love?" She asked when her mom was glaring at her."Aren't you forgetting something?" Olivia asked and encircled her hands around her chest. Monika scrunched her eyebrow and checked her mobile to see what she had planned for today. Her eyes shot up when she realised what she had forgotten."I'm dead" She looked at her mom with a terrifying look. "How could you forget such an important day, Monika?" Olivia growled. "Mom, I promise to hear all your lectures after returning. Right now, I have to reach there," Monika said,
Monika Pov's .I was more shocked than Ryan after realising how boldly I confessed my love to him. I tried to run away, but he didn't let me go; instead, he pulled me closer to him. At that moment, all I wanted was to dig myself six feet underground.He smirked, enjoying my misery, and moved further closer to me, leaving hardly any space between him and me."Wh---what consequences?" I asked. He parted away from me a little and looked into my eyes."Why do you get nervous around me?" He asked. I kept my hand over his chest."I don't know... Maybe because you're too intimidating for me, and when you get close to me like this, I feel weak in my knees," I whispered. My heart skipped a beat and I got goosebumps all over my body when he encircled his hand around my waist."Don't worry; I said before I will never let you fall, Monika," he said, making my heart start beating at a higher speed. I hate how he controls the speed of my heart with his touch and words."I'm not talking about this
Ryan Pov's .The next day, after getting ready, I went directly to my office to work and learn about the casualties that happened because of the war. I remember our enemy's warriors had injured my warriors before I took over and killed them to save my people."Patrick, go and bring me the files that contain the details of the family of warriors who died at the border recently while trying to save us", I ordered him. He nodded and left.I sat on my office chair and opened my laptop. That's when Gloria entered my room, holding Monika's hand and closed my laptop."What was that?" I asked and raised my eyebrow, then looked at Monika, who was looking confused. I understood Gloria dragged Monika here without telling her the reason."How can you be so boring? You should go out with Monika and give her the tour of the pack, but look at you... Sitting in your office, working on your laptop like a grumpy" Gloria said. I rolled my eyes and then looked at Monika, who was laughing after keeping a
Ryan Pov's.I smiled loving how freely Monika was laughing. It made my heart flutter. If possible, then I want this smile never to leave her face.I don't know why things went sour between us in the past or say I don't want to think about those memories again. I just want her to be happy."And for that, you have to give up on your plan of snatching her daughter from her," Wild scowled."You're still hanging over that topic. I dropped that plan last night, realising how horrible I'm turning day by day. Thankfully, her tears and care for me stopped me on time; otherwise, I wouldn't be able to look at myself in the mirror," I replied, looking at Monika, who started blushing after catching me staring at me. She turned towards me and raised her eyebrow as if asking me, 'why am I staring at her?' then bowed her head shyly."I'm amazed you look gorgeous at the age of thirty-five," I said, teasing her."Thank" She clamped up and then narrowed her eyes at me. "Were you admiring me or making f
Monika Pov's .My heartbeat rose when Ryan stood up and walked towards me. It would be a lie if I said his actions and expressionless face aren't scary. I don't want to have another fight with him."Ryan", I called him, but he shushed me."Stay quiet" I narrowed my eyes when he ordered me. I was about to say something to piss him off for ordering me like this, but his next step left me dumbstruck."Ryan," I gasped when he kneeled in front of me and held his ear. I looked at everyone present there; they all were shocked, just like me."I made you apologise because Welda is our elder, and I don't like it when someone talks back to her, and Gloria is like my younger sister whom I want to protect with everything. I didn't like how you behaved and called her," he muttered. I tightened my lips and nodded."I can understand, and that's why I apologised, and I would've done it even when you wouldn't have asked me to do it. It's just" I stopped and looked at Ryan, unsure whether I should shar
