 I played with my phone absent-mindedly as I waited for Dameon, as he had gone to freshen up. I had calmed down already, and my tears had finally stopped. I was honestly still reeling from everything he had told me. It explained so much. Why he was so touchy about mates. About Tai. Now that I knew the reason behind why he snapped at me, it hurt so much less now.

And the fact that he trusted me enough to open up to me felt pretty great. That he sees me as valid, and respects and cares about my opinion of him. It made me feel like we had passed a big milestone together.

I hummed softly to myself, adjusting the screen brightness of my phone when a message popped up on my screen. My Stomach drops. It was from Brianna.  Her last text to me was a happy birthday wish, not a single one since that. Until now.

Brianna

Brianna:Why were you at my house?

Shit. How do I reply to that? Yes, I was, but I accidentally saw that you defamed a picture of me, so I left. Which was wh

  • The Alpha's mate   Chapter 135

    "I'm sorry, willow. I'm sorry," his tone was full of regret. "Are you? Do you-do you even love me?" I sobbed, throwing more and more stuff at the bag, not even looking at what the items are anymore. "What? Why would you even say that?!""Because that man who just fucking shouted at me out there didn't seem like he didn't!" I yell, digging my nails back into the bloody crescents that I previously stamped into my palms. I knew what I was saying wasn't true. I knew he loved me. But the toxic part of me wanted him to feel so guilty and bad for getting mad at me that I didn't care anymore. "I do love you. I love you more than anything," he pleaded as he walked into the room, but I shook my head. "Don't try and stop me. I'm going back to Ralph. To someone I can trust." I knew the last part was a low blow, but I Couldn't stop myself. He went quiet, and I continued grabbing my things around the room, ignoring his presence. Once I deemed my bags packed', I pushed past him out the bedroom

    The car ride back to the house was silent. I got out of the car without a word, slamming the door. Guilty of being mean to Jake immediately overcame me, but I didn't turn back. I couldn't even look at him right now. The lights were off, which meant that Dameon wasn't home yet. I was too tired to shower, so I just washed my face and put ice on my eyes to reduce the swelling and erase the evidence that I had been crying. 30 minutes later I looked completely fine. At least on the outside. I fell asleep on the couch, tired from everything that happened. I wake up to Dameon's keys in the door. He was home! Thank goodness. He was just what I needed after this terrible day. I smiled sleepily, holding my arms out for him as he came in, and he immediately dropped his stuff on the floor to come to me. "How's my pretty baby?" he coos, kneeling down to kiss me as I wrapped my arms around his neck, pressing my lips back into his. "Good," I lied when we pulled away, "How was your work?" He d

    I was backstage, my stomach full of nervous butterflies. It was not like there was much to be scared of, but big events always gave me anxiety. The play had already started, but we were not even halfway through. "Willow, willow!" I heard the theatre teacher call me from the changing room. I turned as she approached, my palms sweaty. What's happening? "Willow, our actor for the peasant boy, is sick, and the extra just hurt his leg. You studied the lines, right? I need you to do it!" My eyes went wide, my stomach plummeting. "-I don't think-" "Nonsense, sweetie! You can do it!" She aggressively smiled at me, wrapping a brown shawl around me for the costume. I shook my head, looking around for help but what I saw was Adam in the corner, smirking with his arms crossed. I immediately knew how the other Extra 'hurt his leg.' Adam Was behind it. All because he knows I never had it in me to perform and he wanted to humiliate me. But I had no time to confront him because the theatre te

    I woke up to my mate sleeping peacefully beside me, arms secured around my body as his chest heaved in long breaths. I just gazed at him for a minute, admiring how handsome he was. My heart couldn't take it. How did someone like me get someone like him? A loving, considerate mate who would do anything to protect me. I couldn't believe how blessed I was. I sometimes question if I even deserve it. With a content sigh, I lifted a hand to cup the side of his face, overcome by warm feelings. I smiled, leaning over to kiss him all over. His forehead, his cheeks, his chin, everywhere. I just love him so much. He woke up in a few moments, instantly pulling me on top of him as I giggled, kissing his nose. "Can I wake up like this every day?" He murmured, his voice thick and deep. I caressed his cheek affectionately, giving him one last soft kiss on the lips before getting out of his grip and getting out of bed as I checked the clock. "Shoot. It's already 7:00! I have to get ready!" He put

    WARNING: SEXUAL SCENE He sat on the bed and I on his lap, straddling his thighs as we made out, completely lost in one another. His tongue explored every inch of my mouth and I moaned, tangling my hands in his hair. I was already so wet,grinding my lower body against his own,which is rock hard against me. This Made him groan into my mouth and it was the hottest sound ever, leading me to do it again and again and again.He lost it, flipping us over and pinning me to the bed, putting his body between my willfully spread thighs. His tongue pushed past my lips again and it made me crazy for him, wrapping my thighs around his waist to get as much contact as I could.The kiss deepened, He rolled his hips into me as the force of his lips on mine increased, hot and heavy. I made a noise of arousal into his mouth, fighting back against his only to be dominated once again."You taste so fucking good," he said,as if he was drunk on me, lust-filled eyes on my swollen lips as I panted, trying to

    "Where are we going?" I asked."It's a surprise," he said, grinning to himself, obviously excited about whatever he was going show me.When we reached our destination, I didn't know what to expect. He parked the car and we got out, but I was confused. We were In a neighborhood with just a few houses. But he took me by the hand and led me to one of them. It was two stories but small, and it looked really cozy with the deep brown paneling and dark tinted windows."Are we visiting someone?" I asked.He shook his head, pulling me to him and wrapping an arm around my waist as we both faced it. "This is my house."My eyes widened. "What?!""I bought it…I can't live at the packhouse forever, you know. I just wanted my own space.”"T-that's amazing! I'll be able to visit you more easily too!""Baby," he had a knowing smile on his face, "I want you here. With me."My jaw dropped, the proposal taking me by surprise. "What? Me??""No, that cricket on the

    After the fallout, there were a few things that happened.The first was that the next day I woke up to the doorbell ringing incessantly. I decided to go get it so Ralph didn't have to, considering he just got back to the house in the early morning and collapsed right into bed.I opened the door to see my three friends standing there. I was prepared to go into the whole explanation about why I never told them about being from Blood Moon when all three of them crushed me into a hug."You don't have to explain anything.""You're our best friend,""We love you."I hugged them back as tight as I could, so grateful for their words. "Thank you guys," I teared up, "You all mean the world to me,"The second thing that happened was that after Ralph, Dameon, and Zed hassled the council, it was decided that I could stay in the pack as long as I got my Blood Moon mark removed and replaced with the sliver Moon Pack one, and I gladly cooperated. And the third thing

    On the way home, he told me everything. He told me how Tristan had threatened him, locked him up, and forced him to comply with his plan so I Wouldn't be hurt. How he had to fend for himself for three months out of the pack, staying with bands of rogues out in the woods. How it was agony to be away from me, every waking minute consumed with the pain of being separated from his mate. My heart broke for him a thousand times over.We stood on the sidewalk now, in front of the house, the place where he was taken away from me months ago. The place where I thought all hope was lost."H-how could-" I sniffled, "H-how could you go through all that for me?!""It was the price to keep you safe. Nothing is more important to me than that," he said, hand cupping my cheek."How can you say that? You could've been hurt! Or k-killed!""For the same reason you just told all those people you don't care what they do to you as long as they don't hurt me. It's what a mate does. It's

    I looked around, meeting everyone's eyes on me, my friends, my schoolmates, and people I had become acquainted with since coming here. They were all going to know. Know that I've been lying from the start. I looked away from Lia and Bri, who watched, confused. I was too ashamed. No. It would be my choice to reveal it. He won't take this away from me. "Yes," I said, "I have," Tristan raised an eyebrow in question. "Yes. I am from the Blood Moon Pack. Yes, I have been hiding it." A collective round of gasps came from the crowd. "Willow-" Dameon starts, looking terrified that I had revealed myself. Then I did the one thing that I never thought I would do, especially not in front of this many people. I took off my shirt. I stripped the fabric of me that always acted as a protective covering, bearing it to the world Blood Moon pockmark and the horrible scars that would never go away as long as I live. I was hypervent
