Irina's POV

A woman appeared at the other end.

She wasn’t so beautiful like mom. But it was the aura around her that made my blood run cold. Darkness, thick and suffocating, spreading from her like ink in water, poisoning everything it touched.

Before the woman reached our parents, I felt a shift in the air. Our mother's hand moved in a small, precise gesture, and I saw something shimmer around little Katherine and me—a barrier, invisible but solid, wrapping around me and Kathrine like a prote

    Irina's POVHe kissed me.Goodness, what was happening? One moment I was standing there, trying to convince him I was the wrong person, that he had the wrong person, that his Luna wouldn't be happy. The next moment, his lips were on mine, warm and insistent, and my brain had completely stopped working.I looked at him now trying to understand. His red eyes were still fixed on me, something raw and unguarded in them that I had never seen before. What was his plan? What game was he playing?Trying to break my heart again?He had walked past me to Lindsey, had let her kiss him, had sneered at me like I was something disgusting.I couldn't go through that again.I quickly shifted away from him, putting distance between us like he could scald me. My back hit the wall, my hands pressed against the cold wall, and I saw flicker of expression across his face. Hurt. Genuine, unmistakable hurt.I didn't wait to see more. I turned and ran.My feet carried me through corridors. I didn't stop until

  • The Alpha’s Ex-Mate   Chapter 35

    Ian's POVLindsey's father, Marcus, hurried toward me, his face split into a wide smile. He was a short, round man with clever eyes and a voice that grated on my nerves. He has been staying in the castle for the past few weeks, along with his wife, at Lindsey's suggestion. With the battle arising, she had said. They would be safer here.I frowned. The marriage with his daughter was only in name, and Marcus knew it. He knew I had never touched Lindsey, knew I had never marked her. And yet he smiled at me like I was his favorite son, like we were one happy family.I paid him no attention, walking past without a word. His smile faltered for just a moment, but he recovered quickly, falling into step beside me."We were worried about you, son," he said, his voice oily and insincere. "All those battles, all those Vodvak... a man in your position shouldn't be risking himself so recklessly. You have a pack to lead. A child on the way."I stopped walking, turning to face him. My expression mus

  • The Alpha’s Ex-Mate   Chapter 34

    Irina’s POVI hadn't known Kathrine for very long. Days, maybe weeks. Time moved strangely here and I had lost track of how long I had been here. But in that short time, I had come to know her. Her kindness. Her gentleness.“I'm happy I have a big sister,” I thought, watching her wipe tears from her face. But I'm sad that my presence would cost her demise. She had found me, brought me here, loved me and it would be the death of her."How many days until the full moon?" I asked, my voice steady despite the turmoil inside me.Kathrine blinked, surprised by the question. "Six months.""Then let's find an alternative before the full moon," I said firmly. "There has to be another way. Another spell. Another ritual. Something that doesn't require your soul." I grabbed her hands, holding them tightly. "I don't want to lose you, big sis. I just found you. I'm not letting you go."Her eyes widened. For a moment, she looked like she might argue, might tell me it was hopeless, that there was no

  • The Alpha’s Ex-Mate   Chapter 33

    Irina's POVKathrine hugged me tightly, her arms wrapped around me like she was afraid I might disappear if she let go. I held her back, feeling the warmth of her body, the steady beat of her heart against mine. My sister. After twenty-three years of being alone, I finally had a sister."So what happened to us later?" I asked, my voice still broken from crying. "After... after they died. What happened to us?"She pulled back slightly, her hands still on my shoulders, and nodded toward the clearing. "Look."I turned. The memory was shifting again, the scene changing before my eyes. Young Kathrine was still behind the boulder, the baby still in her arms. But the spell our mother had cast was fading. I could see it—the invisibility shimmering, the barrier weakening. As our mother died, the spell wore off.My eyes moved to Lena's body, still lying where she had fallen. A man was kneeling beside her now. He was tall, pale, with dark hair and eyes that seemed to hold centuries of sorrow. He

Darkness, thick and suffocating, spreading from her like ink in water, poisoning everything it touched.Before the woman reached our parents, I felt a shift in the air. Our mother's hand moved in a small, precise gesture, and I saw something shimmer around little Katherine and me—a barrier, invisible but solid, wrapping around me and Kathrine like a protective shell. Another gesture, and the air around us thickened. Invisibility. She had cast a spell of invisibility around us.So mom was a witch. Seeing it made everything both clearer and more confusing."A dark witch," Kathrine whispered beside me, her voice barely audible.I looked at our mother, at the white-haired woman who had held me as a baby, who had pressed a kiss to young Kathrine's forehead before sending her away. She didn't look like what I imagined a dark witch would look like. She

  • The Alpha’s Ex-Mate   Chapter 31

    Irina's POV"Tell me what's going on, Kathrine," I said, my voice rising with each word. The frustration that had been building inside me finally spilled out. "You won't let me leave this place. Everywhere I go turns out to be the same. Not only that, but you're also saying you've been a bad sister to me. For goodness' sake, Kathrine, I need answers. I need freedom. I'm not a pet to be kept."I was yelling. I knew I was yelling. But I couldn't stop myself. The words kept coming, torn from some deep place inside me that had been silent for too long.Her reaction made me stop.She was crying. Silent tears streamed down her beautiful face, her blue eyes shimmering with…..grief. Why the hell was she crying? What had I said that was so terrible? I had only asked for the truth. I only wanted to understand.She stood up slowly, her movements graceful even in her sorrow. She walked toward me, her bare feet silent on the grass, and stopped when she was close enough to touch."You would get fre
