Kharo

I'd been wrong.

Present Day

"You knew from the start," Calla said. "And you didn't tell her."

"I told myself I was gathering information. Confirming suspicions. Making sure I understood what we were dealing with before I revealed anything that might make her run." I laughed bitterly. "But really, I was just repeating my father's mistakes. Thinking I could control the situation through careful planning and strategic thinking."

"When did you stop using her?"

"I don't know. Gradually. I'd watch her train with Eren, see how she refused to stay down no matter how many times she got knocked flat. I'd sit with her after sessions with Aria, watching her process trauma with a strength I'd rarely seen. I'd catch her reading in the library, completely absorbed, her guard finally down."

I stood and moved to the window again. "One day I looked at her and realized I wasn't thinking about the pact anymore. Wasn't calculating how to position her. I was just... thinking about her. About what she

  • The Alpha’s Unforgiven Mate   Chapter 109. The Confession

    BlissThree days later, I was finally cleared for light activity, and I made my way to the detention cells where Liam was being held.He was mortal now—just a man, without the nine harvested souls powering him, without Lycaon's backing. The cells held him securely, silver-lined and warded against escape.When he saw me, something flickered in his eyes—not recognition exactly, but acknowledgment of the woman who had destroyed him."Bliss," he said, his voice rough. "Come to gloat?""No." I stood outside the cell, keeping distance between us. "Come to understand. I need to know—why? Why did you do it? Was it just the power? Or was there something else?"Liam leaned against the wall, and I saw how defeated he looked now. Without the power, without the mark of Lycaon's ownership, he was just a man who had made terrible choices."I wanted to matter," he said finally. "I wanted to be more than the son my father sold. More than the tool Lycaon created. I thought if I could be powerful enough

  • The Alpha’s Unforgiven Mate   Chapter 108. The Pack Address

    BlissBy dawn, I felt strong enough to walk to the great hall.I moved slowly, deliberately, aware of every warrior's eyes tracking me as Kharo led me to the raised platform. The pack had gathered—all of them, even Solas's resistance faction. Nearly four hundred wolves, waiting to hear from their Alpha about what had happened.The losses were written on their faces. Aria was dead. Eight other warriors were gone—harvested souls that had scattered into the void. The wounds were fresh, still bleeding.But so was the relief. The convergence had been stopped. Reality had remained stable. The world still existed.Kharo stood before them, and I watched him reach deep inside himself for the strength to speak."Lycaon is dead," he began, his voice carrying through the hall. "The ritual was broken. The convergence was stopped. The worlds remain separate. We survived."A murmur moved through the pack—part relief, part grief."But survival came at a cost." He paused, his hand moving to his chest.

  • The Alpha’s Unforgiven Mate   Chapter 107 : Medical Assessment

    BlissAria's assistant, a young healer named Elara, examined me with gentle hands and careful attention. She checked my pulse, looked at my eyes, ran diagnostic magic through my body. I could feel her cataloging the damage, assessing the repairs my Cycle-born healing had already made, projecting what still needed to happen."You're remarkable," she said finally. "Most wolves would have been completely obliterated by that kind of power channeling. But you're healing it. Adapting to it.""Is she going to be okay?" Kharo asked from where he stood against the wall. He hadn't left my side since we'd arrived at the medical bay."Yes. But she needs rest. Real rest, not just sleep. Her body needs time to fully knit the damage. I'd recommend at least a week of light activity. No training, no strenuous physical activity. Just... recovery."I almost laughed. A week of rest felt like a luxury I couldn't afford. But I nodded anyway.Elara hesitated, then added quietly, "Aria would be proud of you.

  • The Alpha’s Unforgiven Mate   Chapter 106. The Immediate Aftermath

    BlissI couldn't breathe properly.Not because I was physically injured—my Cycle-born body was already healing the worst of the damage—but because the connection between Kharo and me was still partially open, and through it, I could feel everything he was experiencing.His pain. His shock. His awareness of the mark burning on his soul like a brand.The mark of the beloved's death.The prophecy had been accurate. Mercilessly accurate.Warriors swarmed around us, checking for injuries, assessing the scene. Marcus knelt beside me, his face tight with concern. "Bliss, can you hear me? Can you move?""Yeah," I managed, though my voice sounded fractured. "I'm okay. Just... recovering.""Lycaon?" he asked, though he already knew the answer. I could see it in his eyes—he had watched the god die, watched the impossible become real."Dead," I confirmed. "Permanently. No resurrection, no escape clause. He's gone."Around us, the convergence point was a wreck. The stone circle was cracked, symbol

  • The Alpha’s Unforgiven Mate   Chapter 105. The Killing Blow

    BlissLycaon's expression shifted from amusement to something darker. "What is this?" he demanded. "The prophecy said—""Fuck the prophecy," I snarled, and my voice was layered with Kharo's Alpha tones underneath. We spoke with a single voice then, our consciousness so intertwined that there was no separation between us. Thousands of years of separation and suffering and love all compressed into two words.The connection between us reached critical mass.I felt Kharo's eyes go pure black—not wolf sight, something deeper. He could see Lycaon's essence then, the fragile threads of immortality, the cursed magic that bound him to existence, the fundamental weakness beneath the ancient power.He understood, in that moment of perfect clarity, exactly where to strike."Now," I breathed, and I pushed him forward, giving him the space to act.Kharo didn't use a weapon.Magic erupted from his hands—raw, concentrated, the combined force of Alpha power and mate bond and love so profound it rewrot

  • The Alpha’s Unforgiven Mate   Chapter 104. Let’s Go Save The World

    Bliss"How long do we have?" I asked."Twenty minutes.""Then we should prepare. Emotionally, spiritually. This was going to be unlike anything we'd ever experienced." I pulled back enough to see his face. "We needed to center ourselves. Remember why we were doing this—not just for the pack, not just for survival, but for each other. For the right to choose our own ending instead of letting destiny dictate it."Kharo nodded slowly. His hand came up to cup my face. "When did you figure this out?""Last night. When you were sleeping." I smiled sadly. "I was thinking about the prophecy, about all three options, and I realized—we'd been asking the wrong question. We kept asking 'what do I sacrifice?' But the real question was 'what do we sacrifice together?' And the answer was simple: everything we wanted, so everyone else got to want anything at all.""That's not simple," he said."No," I agreed. "But it was right. And after everything—after Ria, after Liam, after learning I'd been broug
