Aria’s POV

Ever since I woke up… I felt different.

Wilder. Like something had been caged inside me for too long, and now the bars were twisted open, and it was stretching its limbs for the first time.

I let my wolf out.

And something in me… shifted.

It wasn’t just the violet eyes or the power that crackled under my skin like I was built from thunder now. No. It was in my head, my chest, my thoughts. Especially those thoughts.

The ones I used to shove deep down. Hide in the dark, pretend they weren’t mine. The ones that made my heart race and my stomach flip—daydreams I used to feel dirty for having.

Thoughts about my mates.

About their hands. Their mouths. Their sounds.

I used to hate that part of me—the wanting, the imagining. The shame that crept in after. The guilt. Like I wasn’t supposed to crave. Like I wasn’t allowed to need.

But now?

Now I could taste those thoughts. Let them rise without shame, without fear. It was like my wolf had handed me a part of myself I didn’

  • The Apex's hidden mate   New weapon ideas

    Elizas POV Still at Tyla’s secret bunker, I’d been working faster than I thought possible. Every hour counted now. The adaptive suit project was no longer a slow-burn engineering dream but a survival mandate. Tyla’s bunker had more than just food storage and backup power; she’d shown me the research and development room at the far wing of the bunker. Apparently, her parents weren’t just paranoid about the world ending—they’d prepared to rebuild it if it did. It wasn’t cutting-edge like my father’s lab, but it had enough. The air here smelled faintly of machine oil and solder, a scent that settled me. This was my element. The original adaptive suit had gaps. Weak points I’d been painfully aware of since the day it took damage at that factory. This time, there would be no weak points. No compromises. As in the weak points should be less than 20 percent. Quin had been helping where she could, running system checks, handing me tools before I even asked. Tyla, was useful too. “You

  • The Apex's hidden mate   The fake forest

    Thane’s POV They didn’t make it easy for us. I recall the moment the guards came with those collars, we all knew there was going to be a fight. None of us were built to submit quietly, and we didn’t take well to leashes. Literal or otherwise. We gave them more than they bargained for, but in the end, they had numbers, and they had the collars. The moment that cold band of metal locked around my throat, I felt the surge. My muscles seized, my vision blurred, and the world narrowed to a tunnel of pain. Even then, I clung to consciousness just enough to keep track. They covered our faces before dragging us out. I couldn’t see, but I could listen in my unconscious state. I knew we’d been taken to an entirely different building the moment I had felt the vibration beneath my feet shift. We were in a vehicle, moving. They’d gagged us as well, though not entirely for security. Ryker had spent the first half of the trip throwing every insult he could conjure at our captors, each one s

  • The Apex's hidden mate   She lied

    Priscilla’s POV I lay back against the silk sheets, the low hum of the vibrator filling the room. Two days had passed since Selena went to meet Kaid, convinced she could twist his head into believing she was his fated mate. Pathetic. My breath hitched as I imagined her face when he inevitably looked at her the way he always did—like she was something unpleasant stuck to the bottom of his feet. I knew it hadn’t worked. How could it? Aria was the fated mate to all four of them. Selena was an annoyance, not a contender. The first wave of pleasure began to build in me, curling low in my stomach. I let my eyes slip shut, indulging in the thought of her failure. I expected her to come storming back, spitting venom, desperate to salvage her pride. I expected the tantrum, the screaming, the drama she was so well known for. Instead, she returned calm, almost smug, claiming her “plan” had worked. I nearly laughed. The lie was so obvious it was almost insulting. She was too afraid to ad

    Kaid’s POV I sat in the cold, white box again. Selena’s perfume still lingered on my skin, faint but enough to make my jaw clench. She Thought my weakness was a door she could kick open. She was wrong. Even with the collar burning me from the inside, I found the strength to drive my foot into her chest, hard enough to send her sprawling. I didn’t care if she broke something. I hoped she did. Now I was back here, sitting on the smooth floor, my back to the wall, breathing slow to keep the rage from spilling over. Across from me, Thane’s voice broke the silence. “What happened?” I didn’t lift my head. “I don’t want to talk about it.” Caspian’s voice came from directly across my cell, light and teasing as always. “You look like you just came back from war.” I didn’t answer as I looked at them. Thane, from the cell beside his, leaned forward so I could see the calm steel in his eyes. “You’ll have to tell us, Kaid. We need every piece of information we can get if we’re going to

  • The Apex's hidden mate   Famous for wrong reasons

    Eliza’s POV We were at Tyla’s secret bunker. It was hidden enough, deep in the forested hills, surrounded by nothing but wild grass and dense trees. If you didn’t already know it existed, you’d walk right past the metal hatch buried beneath layers of brush and rock. It was… efficient. Which was good, because the Shadow Pack would be hunting us by now. Thanks to Sheila. That traitor. I would have taken us to my own hideout, but that would’ve been suicide. The place used to be my father’s playground. It was a perfect little lab for his twisted experiments. His victims. His toys. That man didn’t just destroy lives; he catalogued them. And they already know who he was. They’ll trace his secret places, and if we’d gone there, we’d have been discovered in seconds. I looked around at the bunker. Clean enough. Lined with reinforced steel, a power system that hummed steadily underground, even a filtration system for air and water. I couldn’t help but run a hand along the wall. “Why do

  • The Apex's hidden mate   She betrayed me

    Aria’s POV My heart felt like it might explode. It pounded painfully in my chest, and I had to bite the inside of my cheek to stop myself from trembling. Mr. X gave a low, mocking laugh as he stood up. “Why are you even protecting those little boys?” he sneered. “Even though they’re your fated mates, I can promise you none of them will ever acknowledge you as theirs.” I lifted my eyes to him, my body weak. My spirit might be bruised, but it wasn’t broken. “That’s where you’re wrong,” I rasped. “So very wrong.” He frowned, and I forced myself to keep going. “Don’t you remember the day you demanded the Apex brothers hand me over?” I added. I met his gaze dead-on, my voice rising with the memory. “And instead of surrendering me, they chose to fight you and your minions” “My mates may be power-driven, and they’ve made decisions for their own benefit… but when it came to me, They went against everything they usually do. They chose me.” Mr. X scoffed, his eyes gleaming w
