The Alpha's Quiet Mate Chapter Nineteen
Elara’s POV“Again.”Astrid tossed me a dagger and smirked like she was enjoying this way too much.“I swear, you’re not normal,” she said. “You were flailing last week and now you’re flipping midair like you trained with the Moon Guard.”I shrugged. Nyx was pacing in my head, smug.“Don’t look at me like that,” Astrid warned. “We’re not done.”We weren’t. We’d been at it since dawn, and my limbs were jelly, but the second I saw movement at the edge of the field, everything sharpened.Kieran.He was standing near the training ground, arms crossed, eyes locked on me. He looked tense, but not in the usual way an Alpha would be.–more like his insides were screaming.“Focus, Luna,” Astrid teased, spinning her blade. “Unless you want me to kick your ass in front of your very emotionally constipated mate.”I rolled my eyes and lunged.We sparred for another half hour. My moves felt faster, sharper. Like my body had been waiting to be pushed this hard. Nyx was fully awake now, nudging me, f

Kieran's POV I heard the door creak open. It was the same sound Elara made whenever she came back after training. I’d gotten used to it by now—her quiet, steady footsteps, the soft shuffle of her clothes, the small sigh she always let out when she entered the packhouse. It was a familiar sound, one that told me she was back.I didn’t think much of it at first. She was just settling back in after training, probably needing some time to herself. The minutes passed, and I got back to work, my thoughts on the pack, on the tasks at hand. Time slipped by—an hour, maybe two.But then, the door creaked open again, much later than usual. This time, she was leaving.I didn’t even hear her footsteps anymore. The packhouse was eerily quiet. I glanced up at the clock—an hour and a half had passed since I’d last heard her. My heart skipped a beat. Something wasn’t right.The weight of silence in the house was suffocating. My mind, usually calm, now swirled with unease. I tried to push the thoughts

Elara's POV His mouth crashed against mine, tongue deep and demanding, and I kissed him back like I was starving. Our breaths tangled. Lips slick and swollen. His hand gripped my jaw, tilting my face as he deepened the kiss like he couldn’t get enough.I didn’t want him to stop.I loved every second of it.Kieran groaned against my lips, his hands gripping my waist, sliding under my tank top, fingers trailing fire across my skin. I arched into him, craving more—craving him. I gasped when his fingers brushed under my breast, and he froze.“You okay?” he asked, breathless.I nodded.I was more than okay.“I need you,” he murmured against my lips. “But not here. Inside. You deserve your first time on a bed. Not in the damn forest.”I blushed and grabbed his hand, pulling him toward the house. I didn't hesitate a bit which was unlike me.Damn him for making me bold.Once we were in, he kissed me again but this time he was gentle. Like... overly gentle, which threw me off for like half a

Kieran's POV The sun was already creeping through the curtains, and Elara was curled beside me, still asleep. She looked soft. Peaceful, even. I stayed still, not wanting to ruin the moment. Everything was quiet, just the sound of her breathing and the occasional sound of birds chirping outside. It was the kind of quiet that felt rare, like the kind that only showed up when the world finally decided to slow down.My arm had gone numb under her weight, but I didn’t mind. There was something grounding about having her here. After everything, the chaos, the fights, the moments I wasn’t sure I’d earned her trust, this felt... good.Better than good. It felt like something was finally settling.I stared at her lips for too long, then leaned in and kissed her, gently and slowly.She stirred eventually, eyebrows scrunching a little before she blinked up at me. There was a second where she just stared like she was making sure I was real. And then her eyes shifted and I mean literally. They g

Kieran's POV “Ronan. Mason. You’re next.”My voice didn’t waver. If anything, it rang louder now—because at this point, it wasn’t a test anymore. It was a warning. And every ranked wolf in the room could feel it.Ronan, the tank. Mason, the tactician. Both elite. Both proud. Both looked at each other, then at Elara like they weren’t sure if they were stepping into a spar or a battlefield.Ronan cracked his neck, arms crossed. “You sure about this?”Elara just nodded once, already stepping back into that same eerie, steady stance. Balanced. Loose. Dangerous.Mason exhaled, rolling out his shoulders. “Alright, Luna. Let’s see what you’ve got.”The second they entered the circle, she moved.Ronan charged in first, as expected—power and brute strength, aiming to overwhelm her. But Elara met him halfway, ducked low, and twisted, using his momentum to spin him off course. He grunted and stumbled, but she didn’t wait.She slid behind him and kicked the back of his knee, hard enough to drop

Elara's POV “Whew… that was something else,” Nyx huffed, her voice filling my mind the second I entered the room, Kieran stopped by the office to talk to Tobias. “First it was a hot night with Kieran, now he's kissing you in front of the whole pack.”She was practically vibrating with excitement.“Get lost,” I shooed her away.She just laughed, completely unbothered.“Nyx,” I called her as I remembered everything that happened to me on the training ground, the power, the speed, the raw force that had surged through me… it was beyond anything I had ever felt. “Was that you?”“Not entirely,” she replied, “the heightened instinct came from me but the strength was all you. Kieran is doing something to you, hehe.”“What could be the reason?” I asked, lowering myself onto the edge of the bed, removing my shoes.“We’ll find out in due time, but how do you feel now?” she asked.“I'm fine now. The marks have stopped glowing but… I felt stronger when they glowed like extra strength was added t

Elara's POV “Hi, Luna,” Mira greeted me with a warm smile as I entered the kitchen later that evening. I needed fuel.I waved back in response.She served a plate to me and sat down beside me with a serious face. Given the seriousness, I pulled out my phone and typed, –What's wrong? Why the serious face?--“The Alpha mentioned you're leaving for your honeymoon tomorrow.”–Is that what's wrong? Don't you want me to go?-- I typed, holding up my phone.She has always wanted the best for me so I don't understand why she was sad now.“No, no, I'm very happy Luna. I'm happy he's treating you better now. I just got worried about your marks. I recognize them.”-you do?-“Yes, it was female wolves chosen by the moon goddess that bore the mark. The mark is meant to give them extra strength to match their Alpha mate and I'm sure you noticed it today when you were fighting with the warriors.”–is it dangerous?-- I asked.“Not if controlled properly. You mustn't let the power control you, instead

I wasn’t given a choice. I was sold like a property on the eve of my twentieth birthday to a monster they call Alpha Kieran Blackwood. They call it a treaty, a bond to unite two packs against a common enemy. But to me, it’s a death sentence, one wrapped in silk and sealed with blood. I didn't realize I was the price until they summoned me.I was in my room when the Beta barged in.“The Alpha wants you in the council room,” he said.My stomach twisted the moment I heard it, a familiar dread coiling in my chest. Nothing good ever followed those summons–just orders, punishments, or reminders of how worthless I had become.The hallway stretched on, heavy with each step. Whispers clung to the air like smoke. “There she goes, Mooncrest’s little curse.” I kept my gaze fixed on the floor, focusing on the rhythm of my footsteps, the only thing I could control.As I entered the council chamber, silence swallowed me whole. The kind of silence that was thick with judgment, a pressure in my ches

The Alpha's Quiet Mate Chapter Eighteen
Tobias’ POVI wake up at 5 a.m. every day, no alarm needed. My body’s been trained to rise with the sun—or before it. Discipline has always been easier than sleep, especially lately.I stretch and loosen up before heading to the simple gym behind my house. It was basic—just some weights, a punching bag, and enough room to work out. I spend an hour lifting and boxing before hitting the road.I run—long laps along the southern border, my usual route. Minimum five miles. It keeps my wolf calm and my mind sharper than my mouth, which, frankly, says a lot.Afterwards, I shower, hit the kitchen and make breakfast. Scrambled eggs, toast, and a coffee strong enough to raise the dead. I cook myself. Always have. I like eating alone. No noise, no conversation, just me and the silence. That’s my routine—quiet, clean, and predictable. Then I go see Kieran.Kieran and I… we used to be close. Practically brothers back when things were simpler, when the world didn’t hurt as much. After he lost his
The Alpha's Quiet Mate Chapter Seventeen
Elara’s POVI don’t know when it started—maybe the second my body hit the floor protecting him. Maybe the moment he realized I was willing to die for him. Either way, something shifted. Kieran changed.At first, I thought it was guilt. He never came near the room for days after the attack, and I've been in the room for days waiting for him, asking for him, but by the third day of stiff silence and excuses from Tobias like “He’s training” or “He's in a meeting” I got the message loud and clear.He was pushing me away.And the worst part? I had no idea why.Instead, he built walls. Cold, silent ones.I tried reaching him through the link, but he kept shutting me out. Nyx couldn’t reach Fenrir too. I was much stronger now and I was tired of waiting for him to come talk to me.“Go to his office,” Nyx said. “If he's not coming to the room and is purposely shutting us out, we deserve to know why.” I made my way to his office that night. I knocked and heard no sound but I could feel him in
