To all my readers, thank you for finishing this book! Your support, comments, likes, and gems mean everything to me. I cherish seeing your reactions, knowing my books bring you joy, even when they make you want to scream!Aurora, Sebastian, Ethan, Caleb, and Gabriel endured so much to avenge Luca. I cherished writing their stories and following their journeys these past months, along with their other adventures throughout the Mated series. That’s why it’s bittersweet to see this series conclude. The ending might not be a traditional “happily ever after,” but you’ll see them again in my future works. All remaining questions and unresolved plot threads will be addressed in the “Alpha Heirs” follow-up series. It will be darker than the first series – I know, hard to believe – but there will be hope sprinkled in, and naturally, a happily ever after moment. It’s not all doom and gloom, I promise.I hope to see you all in the next book.Mated Heirs series:Book 1 - The Alpha’s Secret Mate L
Aurora POVSeveral weeks had passed since the funeral. Pack life was beginning to settle back down to what was normal. Although there were still lingering threats, the conclave was officially over. Many of the packs saw Luca as a threat after all the videos Teddy sent out. But without his leadership, none of them acted on it. At least not yet. The others didn’t want our control, as they called it. There were many angry calls similar to how Jaden reacted severing our truces we had spent building alliances. It was each pack for its own. already rogue numbers were growing. I could feel it. Each day the sun seemed to shine a little brighter — hotter, a shift slowly but surely creeping through the continent.Despite my attempts to contact Jaden, Stacey, Elio and Kara, none of them answered. All I got was a quick text from Mum to tell me to stop trying to contact them. Libby, Stacey's sister, told me they had reached the pack, but Stacey wasn’t doing well. Her sister had gone to visit her a
Riley POVMy heart is utterly broken. Since coming home, I have barely been able to get out of bed. It’s where Dylan’s scent lingers the most. I pull his t-shirt up around my neck to breathe him in even more. If I close my eyes really tight, I can trick myself into believing he is still here. All I can feel is loss. The utter void in my life now that he is gone. My wolf has retreated far back into the recesses of my mind, only making my loneliness even sharper.Oli has been great. The one thing I have clung to is him. Yet I can’t seem to find the strength to be there for him. It kills me knowing he is grieving the loss of his father whilst trying to be strong for me. It should be the other way around. I need to take care of him.I pull the covers up tight around me as the first rays of morning light creep in under the curtain. Today is the day I have been dreading the most; it will make it all too real. If I had only seen his body, maybe it would have helped. But I know he is gone. I
Aurora POVI kept pinching my skin, but nothing felt real to me anymore. It was all slowed down and jumbled up until nothing made sense. My gaze dropped to the knife embedded in the wooden desk by my thigh. A deep crack had formed. The wood splintered on impact as rivets of wood chippings fell from the air. My brother had thrown a blade at me … did he miss on purpose? Or was he just too angry to focus? There was a low hum of voices I could just make out buzzing around me as I gripped the handle, pulling the blade free. More wood splintered in the process as I glanced at the shiny tip. Pressing my finger to it, a drop of blood quickly sprung free and dripped down my hand to my wrist. It flows so quickly I must have cut deeper than I thought.“Aurora, what are you doing?” Gabriel's voice came into focus as either Sabastian or Ethan snatched the hand from my grasp. My hand lashes the air to get the knife back. I felt nothing, no pain, when it cut me. Like I was locked away tight in the r
Kara POVIt’s happening. Everything I had seen coming is playing out in real time right before my eyes. The dirt kicks up off the ground as Jaden’s tires spin on the gravel, unable to get away fast enough. “Little wolf, we need to go,” Elio comes up beside me, and I nod. I knew this was coming. I just wish it wasn’t like this. Aurora will never forgive me for leaving without an explanation … again.“Get everything packed. I need to speak with Luca,” I tell Elio as his jaw clicks disapprovingly. “You know you can’t do that,” he warns, but I’m already running off to find him before he can stop me.Luca seems to have chosen this precise moment to disappear, hiding in the back of the many gardens by the roses. “There you are,” I pant, knowing if Elio finds me before I say what I need to - I won’t get the chance again. I’m already on borrowed time. Luca looks up at me, big, fat tears rimming his silver eyes, making me deflate. “I’m sorry I have to leave you now, Luca. You will see me again
Jaden POVI glared at them all. My sister’s mates, their wary stares that cut through me like a hot knife through butter. “What is it?” I gritted out through my clenched teeth. My wolf knew something was off — their shifty behaviour, the way they protected Aurora like they knew she was to blame. How Gabriel couldn’t fix my mate. It set my teeth on edge. I felt my claws extend and retract over and over the longer the silence dragged out.“Jaden …” Ethan tries to placate me, but all I do is snarl at him. These fuckers are whittling me down to my last nerve. “Someone better start talking soon or you, Dr here, is going to start to have a few more patients to deal with.” Their eyes widen, and Gabriel coughs to clear his throat.“There is nothing wrong with Stacey’s brain, medically speaking. All of her test results came back as they should. There is a block around her, but there isn’t anything I can do to fix her.” Gabriel actually looks crushed by this fact. It’s not something I was unawa
