The Cursed Alpha's Mate NINETEEN
I swallowed down a lump when he took off his shirt. I forgot I was exposed when he too took off his clothes and joined e in bed. I couldn’t tell what made my heart beat faster. Nervousness or excitement or maybe both.I used to dream of how my mate would take me. These dreams stopped after Lucien rejected me but from the moment I set eyes on the prince, when I knew we were mates, it became hard to put those thoughts out of my mind.He pushed my legs apart when he got into bed. I swallowed thickly again because while my wolf may be going out of her mind with ecstasy, I still retained a bit of my senses. I’d never done this before so I didn’t know what to expect. I especially didn’t know what to expect with him angry at me.“Please be gentle,” I muttered with my cheeks aflame when he settled between my legs.“Do I have a choice?” He grumbled which made no sense to me. He made it sound as if he couldn’t hurt me but he called me a promiscuous traitor a few minutes ago. “I’m sure you know

“Baby girl!” Celeste came flying at me once I stepped out of the elevator. “I’ve searched everywhere for you. Where did you disappear to?” The grin I'd been carrying with me since I mated with the prince vanished once I saw my best friend. She was the only person I expected to realize I’d moved out of the pack basement and I still hadn’t readied a reason to tell her if she asked why I wasn’t here anymore. As it turned out, I’d run out of time to come up with an excuse as she ambushed me that morning.“Hi, Celeste.” I hugged her back while my brain went into overdrive thinking of how to come up with a response to her question.“And you smell different too. What cologne are you wearing?” She pushed me to arm's length to look at me. “There is something different about you.” She mused and my heart fell into my stomach in fear. I didn’t want her to discover I had mated because if I told her, she would want to know with who and I couldn’t tell her I mated with Valens.He explicitly forbade
The Cursed Alpha's Mate TWENTY-ONE
I am not good at a lot of things but I’m especially bad at lying to myself. I hated to admit it but my disposition left me no choice. I was nervous and scared at Clover’s arrival.Her beauty was well-known all over the world. She had the mannerism of a princess and the hidden strength of a hundred seasoned warriors. Compared to her, I was nothing but chicken shit. She was the perfect person to be his mate and I feared that with her arrival, my deficiency would be even more pronounced.I was so distracted throughout that morning that I stepped on Astrid’s toe as I took a tray of food meant for ‘her men’ from her. The slap I received made my ears ring for a full hour.“Where have you left your mind!?” She exclaimed. Claudia chuckled from behind her but she said nothing.If anyone else said something or laughed while she spoke or bitched, the person would have been in equal trouble with her but she liked Claudia. Claudia liked to gossip and although Astrid acted all high and mighty, she
The Cursed Alpha's Mate TWENTY-TWO
*VALENS*“Why are you here?” It wasn’t like Clover to disrespect me.She had been my good friend since my teenage years, second only to Jabari who was born to be my best friend and beta. She didn’t disrespect me or disregard my orders ever and I explicitly told her to stay at the Black Valley pack after a group of men thought she looked weak and easy enough to target. She took them all down without help but she’d sustained life-threatening injuries after that.She was the kind of woman I expected to spend the rest of my life with. The kind of woman that everyone thought would make a fine princess and a powerful queen. She was beautiful both inside and outside but she wasn’t my curse breaker.“Valens, you know I get itchy when I’m far from you.” She wrapped her hands around me.“I didn’t plan to stay long here.” Which was the truth but it had changed now. I may have to start all over from here since I’d found my mate here. It only meant this land would break my curse totally.“How do y

*LUCIEN*“You look like shit. What happened to you?” Skylar said, closing the door to her room behind her.“What do you think?” I snarled at her, collapsing into one of her seats in exhaustion.“Stand up!” She shrieked. Her sudden loud voice startled me up like a soldier responding to a command. I flew out of her seat at once before glaring at her. “I don’t want you to get blood on my seats.”“You really are a bitch,” I muttered under my breath. Her eyes narrowed dangerously.“What did you say?” She hissed, her eyes darkening in a second.“Nothing. I came here for a reason.” I could feel a pulse all over my body. My eyes were swollen but my left eye was worse. I could not see through it as I spoke. I walked with a limp and a sharp pain in my left leg with blood trickling down countless parts of my body.“Does the reason have anything to do with why you’re all bruised and bloody?” I shrugged in response.Skylar was a very smart girl. Smarter than people gave her credit for. I knew she
The Cursed Alpha's Mate TWENTY-FOUR
The penthouse suite of the pack house which the prince now inhabited had a full-length mirror. The only times I saw a full-length mirror were the few times I went shopping with Celeste.I took my time to look at myself in the mirror, appraising myself from head to toe. My clothes were blander than my face. Brown eyes and dark brown hair, a small nose, pouty pink lips and a slim jaw.My chest was a handful at most but I suppose it would be half a handful to the prince. My stomach was flat not because I worked out but because I never had a full belly. No pronounced hips but I think they would have to do. Maybe they weren’t wide and full like Claudia’s but they were fitting.I shook my head, wondering why I was doing a body appraisal when we had to ready lunch soon. Claudia’s words got to me when they shouldn’t have. She could never be with Valens whether her body could accommodate him or not. He couldn’t be with another woman asides from me since we mated. His body would not respond to
The Cursed Alpha's Mate TWENTY-FIVE
When I reported for duty at the kitchen the next morning, Astrid stiffly told me I wasn’t allowed to work in the kitchen anymore.“I’m sorry about your antiques. I had no –“ I tried to apologize to her but she screamed before I completed my sentence.“Get out of this kitchen, you incompetent fool! Your lackadaisical attitude has gotten to the prince and he doesn’t want you anywhere near the food he eats. Go! Just go!” She bent forward as if to take off her shoe so I exited the kitchen at the speed of light before the shoe came flying at my head.I pressed my back against the wall when I got out of the kitchen, tears stinging my eyes. I knew Valens wasn’t bothered about the work I did in the kitchen but his mind still wasn’t at peace with me working with the food he and his people ate. How would I make him believe it wasn’t my intention to poison him in the first place? If I came out now to say Skylar made me do it, he wouldn’t believe me because my words weren’t worth anything to him.
The Cursed Alpha's Mate TWENTY-SIX
“Be careful with Valens,” Clover said once she pulled into a parking spot.“Why? What do you mean?” The ride had been silent until she turned up the radio halfway to our destination.“He is complicated.” As if I didn’t know that already. “He is not someone you question.” I frowned at that. It wasn’t as if I didn’t think or know that even.“I never questioned him,” I said to which she smiled.“Not directly but when I told you he wanted to see you this morning, you asked ‘what for?’ Valens isn’t a man you ask to explain himself.”I’d only asked on reflex. He’d never sought me out for anything before so I didn’t expect him to send his former lover to me out of the blue.“I didn’t mean it that way.” I was actually questioning her but I didn’t add that part.“And he’s also not someone you argue with.”“That’s unavoidable, isn’t it? We can’t live together forever without an argument.”“Oh, you’re argumentative.” She grinned as she said that. “Valens likes it when people agree with him but I
