LOGINExtra continuedGabeWhen Piper finally left, my father didn’t come out of his study. He stayed locked inside, silent and alone. I didn’t bother waiting for him. I simply turned and headed toward my quarters.Just then, my phone buzzed with a text from Danae.She was coming over.A small spark of relief mixed with nervousness settled in my chest. Now that she had finally gotten her wish, her brother’s life was exactly what she had dreamed it would be — it was time we faced what we really were to each other.Yes, she was my mate. But I was tired of hiding it from everyone. I was tired of pretending. I wanted my fucking mate, damn it.I was exhausted from the secrecy, from always holding back. So it was good we were finally going to talk. We needed to come to a conclusion. And if she didn’t want me… I would have no other choice but to reject her.Even though I knew it would break me.Still, I deserved happiness too. I deserved someone who could love me openly, cherish me, and let me l
MarilynI lay motionless on the thin mattress, my body feeling frailer with every passing day. Just a few days in this place had turned me into a shadow of myself. The only human contact I got was when a guard brought food once a day. They never spoke. They simply dropped the tray and left.I heard footsteps approaching again. Probably the guard with today’s meal, I thought dully. I didn’t bother moving or speaking. They would just leave the food and go, like always.But then a voice broke the silence, a voice I never expected to hear here.“I see you were caged in here.”My eyes flew open. I sat up so fast that my head spun, my heart hammering wildly in my chest. I turned toward the door, hardly daring to believe it.It was Jax.How did he know I was here? Did he plan this with Idara? Was he in on my kidnapping all along? A storm of questions exploded in my mind.“I thought he was lying,” Jax said quietly, looking at me with something close to pity. “But I see he wasn’t. Come here.”
IdaraOur loud, breathless moans filled the dimly lit bedroom as Helio thrust into me with that fast, deep, relentless pace he knew I loved. My body trembled beneath him, every powerful stroke pushing me closer and closer to the edge. He seemed to sense exactly how close I was because his hips snapped even faster, harder, driving into me with perfect precision.“You’re almost there,” he rasped against my ear, his voice rough and strained with pleasure.But I could barely hear him. I was lost — completely lost in the overwhelming wave building inside me. My release crashed over me suddenly, intense and shattering. “Helio!” I cried out his name as pleasure exploded through every nerve in my body.The moment my walls clenched around him, he let out a deep, guttural grunt and followed right after me. His hot semen spilled deep inside me as we both convulsed together, riding the high of our shared climax.For a few long seconds, the only sounds in the room were our heavy breathing. Helio’
MarilynWhen are they going to get me out of here?Every single minute I spent trapped in this place pushed me closer to the edge of insanity. The walls felt like they were closing in, and my mind was slowly unraveling.When are they going to come back? It seemed my parents still had no idea that I had been kidnapped. They probably thought I was just off on another one of my usual trips or sulking somewhere. If only they knew the truth…Whatever these people wanted me to do, I would do it without hesitation. Even if they demanded that I beg at Idara’s feet, crawl on my knees, or humiliate myself in front of her, I would. I didn’t care anymore. They should just please release me from this nightmare.I swear I will never meddle in her life again. This time, I will disappear for good. I will go far away and never look back. I still couldn’t believe it, Idara had actually married some powerful old man, and now she had the influence to keep me locked up like a prisoner.There was no commun
IdaraThe moment we arrived back at the mansion, Mr. Gabe escorted me inside. Almost immediately, Helio came into view. The instant he saw me, a warm smile spread across his face. I walked straight over to him, feeling that familiar pull in my chest.“Alpha,” Mr. Gabe announced with a respectful bow, “I brought back your wife in one piece.”Helio nodded, his eyes never leaving me. “I can see that. Thank you, Gabe.”“And oh—” Mr. Gabe added, a mischievous smile tugging at his lips as he caught Helio’s attention again, “it seems to me that your mother-in-law does not like you.”My eyes widened in shock. “She never said that!” I quickly defended my mom, but then I heard Helio, he was already laughing softly beside me. I snapped my head toward him, slightly embarrassed.“Is that so?” Helio asked once he had calmed down, still grinning. “Well then, I think I have to work harder to convince her to like me.”I shook my head at the absurd statement. “She doesn’t hate you. She actually told me
HelioThe look on Calisto’s face the moment he realized he had said far too much was something I had never seen before — pure, raw panic mixed with disbelief. His eyes widened in horror as the weight of his own words crashed down on him.“No… I said that out of anger,” he stammered quickly, desperately trying to backtrack and diffuse the damning confession that had just spilled from his own mouth.I shook my head slowly, a cold smile playing on my lips. “No, Calisto. You have just openly admitted to killing not only my brother, but my father as well. That was no mere slip of the tongue.”I turned calmly to one of my men standing nearby. “I hope you got all of that on tape.”The second those words left my mouth, Calisto did something incredibly foolish.Driven by rage and desperation, the old man suddenly lunged at me, his body already coiled tight with tension from the moment I had walked in. I had anticipated something like this. Before his claws could even come close to reaching me,
Osborne“Is that all?” I asked flatly.My father shook his head. “No. You still haven’t told me what I want to hear, Osborne. Your relationship with her must be cut! Besides, she is not your true mate— yet you went ahead and claimed her.”His voice was thick with anger. I knew if I didn’t shut this
OsborneI know what I’m capable of when anger blinds me. That’s why I dropped her, let her crash to the floor instead of letting my rage go any further. She stayed down for a beat, trembling, her pride more bruised than her body. Then she tilted her face up, eyes blazing with tears and fury.“How d
Even the Luna gave me a curious look, though hers soon softened into a slow smile. Bella, on the other hand, stood frozen in place. For a second, I realized she had probably thought Osborne was the one walking in, that would explain the warm smile she had worn a moment ago.“It seems I do smell lik
AinaBy the time we reached the dining room, the Alpha and Luna were already eating.“Seriously, you couldn’t wait?” Osborne asked as he pulled out a chair for me.“Thank you,” I murmured, sitting down.“You didn’t expect us to wait for you, did you? Where were you anyway?” the Alpha asked while da
