Unknown’s POV

I stood by the flames, ignoring the sweat which trickled down my face while the fire cackled.

I took a swing from my wine as there was a rapid knock against my door.

“Come in.” I muttered and the door was pushed open.

Felix, my loyal soldier, stepped into the room and closed the door behind him.

He bowed his head in respect as he stood a few feet away from me.

“What is it?” I questioned and only then did he raise his head and meet my eyes.

“The great flames lit a few minutes ago

  • The Alpha's Dead Mate   66

    Sabrina's POV I remained silent and Zenith resumed walking. I stared up at Zenith's face and for a second I could swear his lips twitched as though he was fighting back a smile.My cheeks burned a bright red and I tried to ignore the eyes which followed us as we stepped into the pack manor.If Zenith noticed the stares we received, he made no indication as he took me straight to my room.He deposited me onto the bed and I sat up with a huff.“Thank you but that wasn't necessary.” I grumbled and Zenith ignored me as he knelt in front of my bed.He gripped me by my thighs and something hummed to life within me.Zenith's eyes met mine and my lips parted as I tried to form words.“What are you doing?” I whispered as I tried to ignore the feel of his warm hands against my thigh.Rather than answer, Zenith broke eye contact with me and focused his attention on my foot.He took off my shoes and my socks soon followed after.Self conscious, I tried to pull my leg away from him but he had a s

    Sabrina’s POV Alder took a step towards me and I raised my right hand as I let out a shaky breath. It had been too long since I had been this close to Zenith’s wolf.How would Alder react to me now that Zenith was mated to someone else?Yet, there was that pull which I struggled to ignore.Could Alder feel it as well?I took a step closer to Alder and he didn’t move away. Rather, he stepped closer and leaned in until his head was pressed against my hand.Alder’s eyes closed as I gently caressed his fur and he purred.Why was my heart racing?What was stirring within me?Alder's eyes opened and met mine and I instantly took a step back.What the hell was wrong with me?Why did my emotions keep tugging in different directions?Zenith had a mate now, he had a Luna. I needed to remember that, regardless of whatever stupid bond I could feel.“Alright, let's begin.” I muttered as I faced forward and I felt Zenith's gaze on me for a moment before he turned as well.I took in a deep breath a

    Sabrina’s POV “You aren’t half as bad as you claimed.” Mark pointed out and my chest rose and fell heavily as I tried to catch my breath.Sweat trickled down my back and I stole a glimpse at Mark, noting that he hadn’t even broken a sweat.“You were going easy on me.” I pointed out and Mark couldn’t meet my eyes.“You don’t have to, you know. If you do, I'll probably never get any better.” I explained and he nodded.“I didn’t want to hurt you.” He responded.“And that’s sweet but trust me, I can handle myself.” I assured him.“Which is why you shouldn’t spar with emotion.” A voice called out behind me and I stilled.Mark’s gaze darted behind me and I closed my eyes for a second as Zenith’s familiar cologne wafted through the air.I turned to him, only to find his heated gaze already on me.Heat crawled up my cheeks as I recalled what had transpired last night.What had Zenith done with the box and the note?“I assumed you weren’t coming for training.” I muttered as I looked away, un

    Zenith’s POV I bounced on my feet as I circled the punching bag and I tightened my hands into fists.I imagined the punching bag to be an opponent and I attacked as I would have my enemy.Sweat trickled down my back but I ignored it as I kept going, trying to release pent up anger and frustration.A growl left my lips as an image of Sabrina smiling at Mark popped into my mind and I punched the bag with all my might.Why did I care who she spoke to or who she smiled at?She could smile at anyone she wanted, it had nothing to do with me.Alder paced around within me but I ignored him. He had been restless since yesterday and not even the run could make him feel better.‘How could I be at peace when there is a man trying to claim our mate?’ Alder gritted out.“She is not our mate. Aria is our mate. Sabrina is free to be with whoever she wants.” I reminded him but try as I might to get the message through to him, he refused to accept it.‘If she isn’t our mate then why do we still feel

    Sabrina’s POV I tossed and turned on my bed long after Zenith had left but try as I might, I simply couldn’t shut down my thoughts.I huffed as I sat up, giving up on sleep and I made my way out of my room.My gaze darted to Zenith’s door but I instantly forced myself to look away.I made my way to the kitchen but as I pulled open the door, my eyes landed on Aria and I stilled.“Luna.” I greeted stiffly and made to leave but she called out to me.“You can stay Sabrina. You don’t have to look so terrified.” Aria chuckled and I paused.I debated within myself, wondering if I should stay or leave and my eyes strayed to Aria.“Don’t worry, I won’t try matchmaking you.” Aria added and I pressed my lips together but made my way into the room.“So that was what you were doing.” I muttered and Aria took a sip of her tea.“I think I was a bit too obvious wasn’t I?” Aria commented.“Well you certainly weren’t subtle.” I retorted as I made my way to the fridge and pulled out a carton of milk w

  • The Alpha's Dead Mate   61

    Sabrina's POV I stared at my reflection in the mirror as I pondered on all that had happened at dinner.Mark's offer had left me bewildered by its suddenness and then there was Aria…Did she really think I would agree to be Mark's mate?Was she simply trying to pair me up with him because she feared I would be a threat to her and Zenith?A pang shot through me at the thought of Zenith. I closed my eyes and willed my mind not to replay the events of this morning but try as I might, they were simply stuck at the forefront of my head.The way Zenith had looked at me, the intensity of his stare, how he held me…My eyes darted to the box in front of me and I hesitated for only a moment before I pulled it open.I turned over the box and all its contents fell onto the table.My heart raced as I picked up the first note and went through its contents.I lost track of time as I read the notes, one after the other and I felt old memories surface through my mind like a bandaid ripped open.I coul
