The Cursed Alpha's Mate FORTY-TWO
"I am sorry." I waved off Celeste's apologies.She cried and cried and I felt there was more to her tears than she let me see but someone came to prepare my bath soon.A small omega with kind eyes knocked on the door and when I opened up, she jumped back. Relief crossed her face when she didn't see Valens anywhere in the room."The alpha is scary. Oh lord." She fanned herself. "When he came with Astrid to my room, I thought I was about to be banished." The girl talked a lot and her voice was calming, helping me get my mind off the bad memories I had to revisit for Celeste."Umm, I think I'll go." Celeste picked up her purse with her red eyes and tear-stained face."It's okay. I'm fine now." I hugged her. "Thank you for visiting. Maybe we can get something to eat tomorrow?""Thank you. That'll be nice." She squeezed me before she left with a watery smile."You smell fresh," the omega who prepared my bath said. She leaned into me, making a hand gesture as if blowing my scent into her no
The Cursed Alpha's Mate FORTY-THREE
Somehow, I'd forgotten my own birthday which wasn't all that surprising because I always did. Celeste was the only person who always remembered but this year, she had too much burdening her."Oh – I didn't know you knew," I laughed, touching the chain around my neck. "Thank you." Turning to him, I rose to my tiptoes. Supported by my hands on his shoulders, I placed a kiss on his chin."We have a dinner reservation for seven." He offered me his open palm and I stared at it in confusion."So – uh why am I here so early then? You said to come with an appetite." He dropped his hand, sticking them into his pockets."Let's go." He grabbed his key and proceeded to walk out the door."Oh okay." It was only when we got to the elevator that it occurred to me that he may have wanted me to take his hand when he stretched it out to me.Ah.We rode the elevator down in silence. When we walked out, people automatically stepped out of our way. I wanted to take his hand then but I didn't know how to b

I was awestruck."How long have you planned this?" I asked, in awe of my surroundings. He'd put a lot of effort into this, I could tell.The restaurant was empty. The inside was lit up and it displayed a happy birthday message to me with lights. My eyes stung a bit with tears that I held back."Quite a while." His thumb stroked the back of my palm. "Are you happy?" I nodded.Yes, I was happy. I didn't think I ever needed a grand gesture but it turned out I did. I felt special and cared for. Important. He'd taken his time to plan something this big just to surprise me and make me happy for my birthday.My birthdays were never special after my parents died. Days were blurred into one and every day could have been yesterday because they were all the same, birthday or not. I didn't pay much attention to it because other things called for my attention but I realized then how I'd missed surprises. Wonderful surprises. The only surprises I ever received from the pack were bad ones."Thank yo

"I look pregnant." I looked down at my tummy which my figure-hugging dress could not hide.Despite knowing I was overeating, I continued to eat because the food was just too good. Valens, rather than caution me, encouraged me to eat and eat until I became too full to even have a sip of water."You will look good with my pups." His eyes fell to my stomach and a spark of possessiveness lit his eyes but they faded fast. "I am uncertain I can have kids." He looked away from me, pain in his voice."Why not?" I took his hand in mine. We sat in his car, still in the restaurant's driveway."It is a part of my curse. My lineage ends with me." He shook his head and my heart fell to my stomach but I refused to believe that. I knew it deep in my heart that we would start a family together."You told me you'd give me twins. A boy and a girl," I reminded him. It was meant to be reassuring but it failed. It seemed as if I'd reminded him that he could not always carry through with all his promises.H

*LUCIEN*I stared out of the window until the skies darkened, lost in my thoughts. A lot of things had happened in such a short time and it made me appreciate things I took for granted before.My father was missing, my mother was hysterical and my sister wasn't talking to me. There was also the issue of my mate mating with someone else and my mum packing her things and leaving the house this morning without a word to us. In a nutshell, my life had fallen apart and it didn't look like it would be fixed any time soon.When I finally managed to pull myself into a semi-working condition to grab dinner, my wolf perked up. A voice like a rushing wind slammed into my mind.It was the Alpha's Call.The Call was rarely used except on the occasion of the Feast of the Moon. In fact, I'd never heard the Alpha's Call except in the times of the Feast but when I heard it then, even if it didn't sound like the Call I was used to, my wolf recognized it and I knew what it was for.It was physically imp

VALENS"They are not best of friends but they sure are friendly," Clover said. I nodded absently at her report. I wanted to know all about my little wolf's relationship with Lucien but something plagued my thoughts.This morning, I woke to my mate smiling down at me. She was usually asleep when I left for work but not today. Not only did she wake before me, but she also didn't move. She stared down at me with a sweet smile. She said good morning to me with a honeyed voice and then she kissed me sweetly. Then she climbed atop me and gave herself to me in the gentlest way.She walked me to my car when it was time to leave and her eyes grew really sad when I got in. I had to tear myself away from her because my wolf was feeling overly protective after the way she looked at us this morning.I picked up my phone and stared at it. I didn't know what I was expecting but I kept checking it every minute."Are you listening to me?" Clover asked.I was good at listening while distracted so I kne

LUCIEN"It's unfortunate that I'm stuck with you." Skylar scrubbed a hand down her face. "I can't even tell Bethel because who knows what hoe he'll blab it to after getting high." She hissed, falling into a seat."Do you have a plan, or did you call me out to nag at me?" I eyed her, propping my elbows against my thighs as I leaned forward in my seat."Their Mating Ceremony can't happen, so we're going to disrupt it.""How do we go about doing that?" She looked at me with disgust shining in her eyes. It wasn't my fault I wasn't an evil mastermind like her. I'd grown up with love and care so I had no reason to be such a schemer. Unlike her."We need something against Aysel.""Why her? Why not Valens?" Again, she gave me a disgusted look. "Stop looking at me like that." I fingered the neck of my shirt."You are idiotic. I knew you didn't have a lot of sense but I'm surprised I'm only now seeing how daft you are." She stood again, pacing the room. "Because he can leave her. She can't leav
The Cursed Alpha's Mate FORTY-NINE
"I am Luna Levana of the White Moon pack." The woman standing before me introduced herself. She had a soft demeanour and a kind smile that immediately put me at ease. She was tall and slender and wore loose jeans with a classy top."Hello," I gave a small wave."White Moon pack is the second pack the Alpha Prince conquered." Another woman stepped forward. She looked older than Levana but carried an innate fire and vibrancy that made her seem younger"I am Avalon Von Stein, the Royal Historian," she introduced herself."It's a pleasure to meet you." I smiled at her. Her inner vibrance gave off a nice warmth that made me comfortable with her."The pleasure is all ours, Luna Aysel. You have liberated us from bondage and to you, we owe a huge debt." Both women lowered their eyes and bared their necks in a coordinated gesture that made my eyes smart."Luna Levana will coach you on the duties of a Luna while I have been instructed to teach you the history of the royals from the first king t
