Yuri’s pov:

Mom’s very presence was so soothing, and her subtle perfume so invigorating, that I almost missed the scent approaching me, and threatening to choke me alive… keyword being almost.

My inside voice somehow startled me. It sounded fiercer and gruffier than usual, and I realized at once that it was my wolf speaking.

He came. He came for us. Our mate. Our beloved mate is here.

Our mate? I echoed after her incredulously, my heart feeling like it might burst at any given moment.

  • The Alpha's Scorn: His No More    70. Give Chase

    Yuri’s pov: I decided it was safer for both Kevin and I that I didn’t delay the matter more than I had to. My mate and I are trying to come to some kind of understanding… I wish you can be happy for me. The text I sent him was lowkey cruel, I knew that much, but what was I supposed to say? Knowing Leo, the man had both the means and the heart to be ruthless when he needed to be. I was not going to risk irking him further. Kevin’s eyes found mine from across the room at a moment of distraction, and he looked genuinely lost, as if the very last hope he had been hanging onto was no more. Once a scorned wife, now a ridiculed mate… Oh how things have remained the same! The irony wasn’t lost on me. I mentally made a note to give Leo a piece of my mind later on… Sure, in this timeline, he had yet to hurt me the way he had in my past life, but he wasn’t a better person either. It was 5 minutes till the end of the day, and I was feeling slightly out of it. I figured I must have stared a

  • The Alpha's Scorn: His No More    69. Tic Toc

    Yuri’s pov: 3 days went by since Leo and I had that argument in the car… An argument which we never had the chance to finish. I heaved a sigh of utter frustration even as I looked at the designs in front of me. Don’t be bitter. You didn’t get to finish because you didn’t let him claim you. That’s not what I meant and you know it, I growled back at my mate, finding her words as outrageous as ever.It’s not a proper argument if you ended up on his lap making out. I chose to ignore her and focus back on work. My internship was going strong, and I needed to ace it if I ever wanted to stand a chance in the field. Thanks to my devilish mate, I didn’t make it the way I would have wanted. Thanks to him, many things were going wrong in my life. Nevertheless, if there was something he couldn’t touch, it had to be this internship, this opportunity, and this design in front of me. I was nose down into the design when a hand appeared on the side, waving at me. “You’re going to ruin your eye

  • The Alpha's Scorn: His No More    68. Trust Me

    Yuri’s pov: The moment I entered the car, I met Leo’s eyes challengingly, showing him my unwillingness to back out. I wasn’t going to act like a she-wolf who was guilty of cheating on her mate. He should be counting his lucky stars, considering I wasn’t clawing his eyes out for still choosing Aurora over me, and protecting her still… I was taken aback by the thought and the feeling of bitter jealousy I could almost sense bubbling inside of me. Don’t be jealous now, I told myself firmly. You’ve never had a claim on this man, and you never will. He’s our mate. Stop denying the bond already! If anything, my wolf’s words fueled my desire to antagonize him some more. “You have some nerve, stalking me, Alpha Phillips,” I snarled, glaring at him. Ignoring my tone of voice, he didn’t hesitate to say, “We need to talk, Yuri.” The partition went up, and the suddenly closed space was filled with his scent – a scent which for the life of me I couldn’t feel repulsed by. I scrunched my no

  • The Alpha's Scorn: His No More    67. The Truth

    Yuri’s pov: Kevin was as endearing as ever, and a gentleman down to his very core. He didn’t hesitate to help me into the chair gallantly, even went as far as to bring a bouquet of roses… He was going all out, and little, self-conscious, boring me didn’t believe I deserved such a caring attentive man by my side. “What’s on your mind?” He asked in a soft tone of voice, his eyes twinkling softly with a tenderness that almost had me gasping for breath. I was tongue-tied and I didn’t know what to tell him. How about the truth? My wolf snarled. That you have a mate and shouldn’t be here with him to begin with. Leo is with Aurora, and it is high time you accept it, I told her in a determined voice. He was jealous earlier, she tried to argue, but it sounded like a feeble excuse at best. He always is. He is an as*s. And yet, I believed that telling Kevin the truth might spare us some future awkward moments and uncomfortable conversations. “I have met my mate,” I began in a sorrowfu

  • The Alpha's Scorn: His No More    66. Put It Away

    Leo’s pov: The name Kevin had rolled off her tongue easily, sensually, maddeningly… as if I hadn’t had my tongue down her throat just moments ago, as if my hard-on hadn’t been pressing against her seconds before she took the call… and I couldn’t help but recall that moment and the soft smile on her face as she took his call. I didn’t know the man, but I was going to find out everything about him. There’s this Kevin I want to find, I texted my personal assistant, even as the dean began to tell me something about the upcoming dance, and how it was draining their finances. James, the man known as my assistant, was discreet, paid handsomely for his services and to keep his mouth shut, and I knew he would get the job done, no questions asked, save for the relevant ones. Have Yuri followed, shadowed, investigated if you must… But I need to find out who he is by EOD. Yes, Alpha. His answer, clear, succinct and matter-of-fact, was everything I needed to make peace with my wolf. My wol

  • The Alpha's Scorn: His No More    65. Longing

    Yuri’s pov: “Some people truly are shameless, always desperate for attention,” Sophia mocked openly the moment I entered the class. I rolled my eyes, shaking my head ever so slightly at her, wishing my bee-stung lips wouldn’t be too obvious. “No need to act so proud,” she then pointed out, her eyes wicked as her gaze flickered to me. “The Alpha wasn’t pleased with the stunt you pulled this morning… It’s only natural that he would back his fiancée.” Leo frea*king Phillips might not have been pleased with many things, but he had not even addressed me a word of scolding. He did remind me, however, that we were mates, and told me to behave too... not that she needed to know that. I dampened my lips, ready to fire back a retort of some kind, only realizing a moment too late my mistake. I could still taste him on my lips, and his soothing fragrance still envelopped me. I couldn’t help the shudder of pure physical awareness that wrecked me, at the mere memory of his dark promises, of h

  • The Alpha's Scorn: His No More    19. Unconsciousness

    Yuri’s pov: Looking around, watching the drama unfold was quite pleasing, seeing as it didn’t implicate me directly. And now, for the finishing touch, I told myself, as I leaned to speak into the mic again. “I must also thank the elders of the Red Moon pack, for their understanding, and also for

    Yuri’s pov: The TV was on in the bland hospital room, and I watched the reporters swarm both Leo and his precious, albeit cunning, Luna to-be at the exit of the hospital. I couldn’t help the derisive scoff that escaped my lips, seeing the performance Aurora was putting on for the whole world to se
