The world splintered before my eyes. I saw everything I had fought for and everything I would fight for, crash right in front of me.

I heard Trevor burst into the room but I couldn’t look back. Couldn’t breathe. Couldn’t move.

"No. No, this can't be happening."

My voice came out in a choked whisper. I could barely hear myself over the frantic thrumming in my ears.

I pressed my fingers harder against Grannie Alba's neck.

No pulse.

An icy dread, colder than her skin, seeped deep into my bones and my lunch threatened to rush back up.

Dr. Brown rushed in, his face tight, followed closely by two medical assistants. Trevor must have called him through the mind link.

He moved swiftly to Grannie Alba's side, the look in his eyes already confirming what my heart refused to accept.

He listened with a stethoscope, checked her pupils, and performed some rapid motions.

Then, he straightened, his voice low, filled with a practiced empathy that only fueled my rage.

"Luna,” he said quietly. “

  • The Curse of Fated Mates    Chapter 31

    It was Elara.“What do you think you're doing?” I asked and she jumped, staring at me with wide eyes.“I…n…nothing. I was looking for you,” she stammered, moving away from the table.I closed the door behind me, advancing further into the wide room. With each step I took towards her, she took two back until she hit her back against the wall. She whined like a wounded kitten.Why was she in my office? And what was she looking amongst confidential files? Raka tried to pull me back but I ignored him. I took slow steps towards her shaking frame, like a predator taunting its prey.I stopped in front of her. “What were you doing looking through my files, Elara?” I asked one more time.She swallowed. “The door was opened slightly and I thought I heard someone in here so I came in to check,” she said shakily.I raised a brow in irritation. She was so dumb, it infuriated me.“Hey! Don't call our mate dumb,” Raka said in my head.“If she's not dumb, then she should stop acting like it,” I r

  • The Curse of Fated Mates    Chapter 30

    The wolf became a blur of black fur and red dot in my eyes. I went momentarily deaf from the loud roar that erupted from the pack wolves. I was frozen in that moment of terror and I could only watch as the wolf closed the distance between us. I could see its massive paws kicking up dirt from the damp earth and the world seemed to slow around me. My eyesight became sharper instantly and I could vividly see every stark detail.A sharp, deafening crack split through the air. The rogue wolf, mid-leap, yelped in a sickening high-pitched whine just as another larger wolf swiped at its neck, sending its black head rolling across the floor. The body writhed for a moment, a pathetic heap of fur, before the movements stopped entirely.My legs, which had been frozen in place, threatened to give out. My heart hammered against my ribs, almost overshadowing the pack's shouts and the furious growl of the Alpha.“Secure the perimeter!" Alpha Moretti roared. "I want eyes on every corner of these

    “Luna!” Trevor exclaimed. He didn't make a move towards me and that was probably for the best.“Trevor. I don't know what's happening,” I said honestly when I managed to stop screaming, my voice hoarse and raw. My mind was a whirlwind of grief, confusion and rage as I took a look around the room. “Calm down. You need to relax so you can stop it,” he said, holding a hand in front of me, as if shielding himself from something invisible.“I don't know how. I don't know what's going on.”“How about you start with deep breaths. Just take deep breaths and try to relax.”I saw a completely different expression on Trevor's face. He looked genuinely terrified. The realization that I had scared him, a trained warrior, added to my growing panic.I took deep breaths like he said, forcing air into my burning lungs and soon, the disruption subsided. The cracking silence returned and we both stayed quiet for the minutes that followed. Him staring at me like I had just grown a horn and I stared

    I couldn't do it. I couldn't tell Grannie Alba that Alpha Moretti was a cruel, dangerous man who probably led the mafia group that has been responsible for the attacks back at Open Creek. I wanted to, I really did. But I thought of him hurting me if he finds out I told her. Or worse, hurting her. And I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Grannie Alba had been discharged and was told to rest for a few more days before doing any activities. She was staying in my room. I didn't care that there was already a room assigned to her. After all, I wasn't going to leave her side so she might as well stay right in my room. During the days while she recovered, I spent less time outside my room and so the chances of seeing Alpha Moretti were even slimmer than usual. However, we crossed paths one evening and the conversation we had was rather….odd. “How is she?” He asked curtly. “She's a lot better, thank you. Dr Brown expects that she will make a full recovery.” He nods. “That's good.”

    Tears sprung to my eyes when I caught sight of her eyes that were cracked open. I flung my arms around her, careful not to put my weight on her small body. I tried to speak but my throat was clogged. She raised her hand to pat me lightly on the back. Pulling myself away from her, I let my eyes roam across her face. “I missed you, Grannie.” “I missed you even more, my sweet child.” “I'm sorry I never came visiting. He didn't want me to see anybody outside this pack,” I said apologetically. “But he did.” “What? What do you mean?” “He brought me to the pack. I've been here for over a week before the incident,” she said just as the medical team entered the room and I was moved aside. I was gently and firmly ushered aside as the medical team performed their checks on Grannie Alba, their movements quick and efficient. Their hushed voices mingled with the soft beeps and hums of the machines that surrounded her bed. Once they were satisfied, they quietly exited the room, a
