The Alpha’s Unwanted Mate Chapter 50
Cassandra's POVThe elders' hall was older than any room I had been in since I arrived here.You could feel it. In the weight of the air and the thickness of the stone and the way the torches on the walls threw shadows that moved like things with intent. The curved table at the front sat five elders and above them, carved into the stone of the arch, were words in a language I had no name for.I stood at the centre of the room.Sebastian stood to my right, slightly behind me. Not beside me. Not in front. Behind, which I understood, after weeks in this world, was the position a wolf takes when they are guarding something.Kael stood at the far side of the room near the door. Easy. Relaxed. Smiling at nothing in particular. I did not look at him longer than once.Claire entered last. She was dressed carefully, which I noticed because everything about Claire was intentional and the effort she had put into this morning was a kind of statement. She looked at me across the hall and the look
The Alpha’s Unwanted Mate Chapter 49
Sebastian's POVRiver found me in the training wing at noon.He did not knock. He never did. He stood in the doorway of the equipment room and watched me wrap my hands for the bag until I acknowledged him, which was the rhythm we had operated on for twelve years.You sent for me, he said.I did.I had done it quietly. A message passed through a junior wolf who answered to me directly and only to me, routed past Kael's sight lines, which took twice the effort it should have and which told me something about how far into the structure this situation had already grown.River was forty-three in human years. He had been my father's wolf before he was mine. He was not political. He did not care about standing or positioning or the social geometry of pack life. What he cared about was the pack's safety and the Alpha's word, in that order, and those two things had always been the same thing until now.I told him what I knew.I watched his face as I spoke. River's face was not expressive at th
The Alpha’s Unwanted Mate Chapter 48
Cassandra's POVLiving in the same house as someone you know is dangerous is a specific kind of awful.It is not the loud kind of fear. It does not announce itself. It sits behind your sternum and runs a low current through every ordinary moment, so that breakfast in the kitchen is breakfast in the kitchen but it is also something else entirely, and walking down a corridor is walking down a corridor but you are aware at all times of every doorway and every shadow and where the exits are.Kael smiled at me at breakfast the morning after the woods.You stayed, he said, with just enough warmth to be perfectly normal.The Alpha asked me to, I said.Of course. He poured his coffee. I am glad. The house suits you.I smiled back. I had practised that smile in the bathroom mirror at six in the morning. Light and neutral and giving nothing away. I was reasonably proud of it.Sebastian had been different since the woods. Not visibly different. Not in ways another person would easily clock. But
The Alpha’s Unwanted Mate Chapter 47
Sebastian's POVShe said his name and everything rearranged itself.Not loudly. Not with drama. She said Sebastian, I have to tell you something about Kael in a voice that was quiet and careful and completely certain, and I looked at her face and I knew before she said another word that whatever came next was going to cost me something I was not prepared to lose.We stayed in the trees. She talked and I listened and I kept my expression still through all of it because that is what I have always done when something has hit me hard enough to flatten me. I go still. I go inward. I present nothing to the outside that can be used.She told me everything. The covered walkway. The storage building door. Kael's voice stripped of its warmth. The other voice she had not recognised. The exact words.When he falls it has to look natural.When she finished she held my gaze and waited. She did not fill the silence with reassurance or apology or any of the softening that people usually reach for whe
The Alpha’s Unwanted Mate Chapter 46
Cassandra's POVI made it to the tree line before my legs stopped working properly.Not physically stopped. They kept moving. But there was something wrong with the way the ground felt under me and the way the air tasted and the way my chest had been doing since I walked past Sebastian in that doorway. It was the same thing that had been sitting in the wrong place since last night when he said I needed to leave and I had watched something almost say itself in his face before it didn't.The pack's driver had taken me as far as the south gate in silence. I had told him I would walk the rest. He had looked uncertain. I had told him again, and he had let me go.There was a path from the south gate through the outer pack lands that led to the road. I had walked it once before, weeks ago, trying to map the grounds in my head the way I always did in new spaces. It was maybe a fifteen minute walk through a stretch of mixed woodland and then open field.I was five minutes into the trees when i
The Alpha’s Unwanted Mate Chapter 45
Sebastian's POVI told myself it was the right call.I had been telling myself that since Kael came to me the previous afternoon with the news about the tribunal. Three days. The elders were moving on it with a speed that told me Claire's visit to Doran had landed harder than I had expected. A formal tribunal inside pack grounds meant witnesses and procedures and a ruling I would have very limited ability to overturn without publicly declaring something I was not yet prepared to declare.If Cassandra was still here when it convened, she would be in the centre of it. Unprotected in all the ways that mattered in pack law.Sending her away was the only move that bought time.I knew all of that. Every part of it was logical and sound and correct.It did not make watching her pack her bag any easier.I stood in the doorway of her room and watched her move around the space with her practical, efficient movements, folding things, checking under the bed, pulling her coat from the hook behind
The Alpha’s Unwanted Mate Chapter 35
Sebastian’s POVThe sound of her voice still lingered in my head, stubborn as hell as she stood on that field with a brace on her leg and children clinging to her like ducklings. And gods help me, she had won. Nothing could compare to the immense joy I felt at that moment when I saw that the childr

Cassandra’s POVSebastian cleared his throat, looking everywhere but at me. I looked up at him, cheeks still warm from the lingering chocolate on my lips.He then looked at me for a short while before finally opening his mouth to speak.“Tell me a little about you.” he did and my eye brows almost j

SEVENCassandra's POV The next day felt like j was floating on air. Everything felt great. I had classes and although the lecturers were as ahellish as ever, I felt free. I had lunch with Jessa and now, I was heading to the bleachers t watch a football competition go on.I took my seat with my chi

Let's Make a dealCassandra's POVThe bang I heard earlier made sense the second I stepped into the living room.Sebastian stood there, chest heaving, fist still clenched. And right in front of him was Theo, stumbling back with blood at the corner of his mouth. My eyes widened, my feet glued to the
