Unusual vocalization.

Those were the exact words I typed into the report file assigned for creature.

Maybe I should call it a large wolf. It sounds more respectful.

I paused for a moment after writing it, my fingers hovering over the keyboard, tempted, just for a second to add more. To write the truth.

But I didn’t.

I left out the most important part.

I didn’t write the word he had said.

Even now, hours later, I kept replaying that moment in my head, turning it over again and again, searc

    ELARA“Let’s have dinner.”My thumb paused mid-scroll on my phone screen, hovering over a half-read message, as I slowly lifted my head to look at Jade who just strolled into the artificial garden.He sat down next to me on the bench. “Let’s have dinner together, Elara.”I know what tonight is.Every year, the lab arranged a private dinner, one for each staff member. You could attend alone if you wanted, keep to yourself, sit through the evening in silence… or you could bring someone. A partner.“I still have files to review,” I replied, lowering my gaze back to my phone, to my chat with Kate.PLEASE, I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO SEE YOU AND TALK. JUST TELL ME WHEN IT WILL BE CONVENIENT FOR YOU.I hesitated for only a second before pressing send, hoping that she would respond again.“Janet made it mandatory,” Jade countered. “Everyone has to be at the grand floor tonight. The lab and all floors will be on lockdown until morning,” he added.Slipping my phone into my pocket, I pushed myself u

I blinked, confused, trying to process his words. “Jan…” I started, then stopped, clearing my throat. “Ms. Scott didn’t mention anything like that to me.”“Then perhaps you should contact her,” he replied in a flat, emotionless tone. “Because after today, you won’t be granted access to the creature anymore.”My jaw tightened as I fought to keep my emotions under control. I took a slow, deep breath, turning my gaze toward the glass partition, using it as a distraction to calm myself.“Fine,” I muttered quietly, looking back at him. “At least let me go inside the room this time. I don’t want to feed him through the slot today.”The guard lifted his hand to the microphone attached to his ear and spoke into it, likely asking for permission, probabl

  • The Last Alpha’s Mate   CHAPTER 9

    ELARAI did not run like Kate told me to.Any sensible person would have listened. Any sane person would have walked away from this place the moment things began to feel wrong, but I did neither.Instead of writing a resignation letter like every rational human being who had started to question this lab and everything inside it, I sat down and wrote something entirely different.A request.Not to leave, but to stay longer.More specifically, I asked for extended access with Biggie.Even now, thinking about it, I can’t fully explain why I made that decision. It wasn’t logic. It wasn’t safety. If anything, it felt like the exact opposite of both. Still, I sent the request to Janet, half-expecting resistance, questions, or at the very least, hesitation.But none of that came.Janet, who had made it very clear that she was concerned about how much time I spent with Biggie, about the effect he seemed to have on me, approved the request without a single complaint or follow-up questions.Tha

    ELARAAt this point, I wasn’t even sure if I should be trusting Janet so much anymore.She had told me, more than once, that she pulled strings, called in favors, bent rules to get me this job. At the time, it had sounded like a generous act, something I should be grateful for. And I was… or at least I had been. But now, that explanation feels ridiculous, because the file I had seen, the one with my name clearly circled in bold ink, told a completely different story.I wasn’t here by chance. I wasn’t here because of luck or kindness.I was selected.Chosen as part of some ridiculous, unsettling list labeled compatible personnel for Project Fenrir. Even thinking about it made my stomach tighten. Compatible for what exactly? And why me?“Elara!”The sound of my name snapped me out of my thoughts so abruptly that I almost flinched. I quickly smoothed out the frown that had formed on my face and forced the tension out of my expression. By the time I turned around, I had already arranged m

I told myself I must have misheard it. That my mind, already strained and restless, had filled in something that wasn’t there.Every minute, every passing second, I repeated the same excuse.You didn’t hear it right.It wasn’t real.It couldn’t be.And if I said it enough times… maybe it would start to feel true.Because what was the alternative?That a wolf-like creature, something I haven’t even fully understood,

    ELARAWalking into the lab with my mind scattered and unfocused turned out to be a terrible decision, one I began to regret almost immediately. My thoughts were everywhere except where they were supposed to be, drifting back to things I had no business thinking about, especially not in a place filled with fragile glassware and volatile chemicals.It showed.Within a short span of time, I had already broken two chemical containers without meaning to. That was when it finally sank in, if I didn’t get myself together, if I didn’t hickey on my neck covered with makeup and concentrate, I might end up causing something far worse than a few broken bottles. I could ruin the entire experiment… or worse, set the lab on fire.The CCTV in the resident hallway showed that Janet had only left for a few seconds before I woke up, so there is no way Jade could have done that, not that I suspect him.“Do you have the D4 result rea_”Jade’s voice trailed off the moment his eyes landed on the wastebin.
