While the mansion seemed submerged in a forced tranquility, with security tightening the corridors and Dmitry still secluded with Susan, that afternoon Svetlana moved with silent elegance behind the scenes.

Natália’s personal advisor had dedicated years to the art of discreet manipulation, and now, more than ever, she knew every step needed to be calculated.

Inside Natália’s private quarters, illuminated only by light filtered through heavy curtains, Svetlana approached the young, rejected wife

  • The Lycan’s Fated Mate   Chapter 110 — The World Was Never Separated

    The first thing Carla felt was the weight. It was not pain — it was only a strange sensation of being sunk into something too soft, too warm, as if her body were still trapped between sleep and wakefulness.She tried to open her eyes, but failed on the first attempt. Her body felt heavy, far too heavy. She took a deep breath and tried again; this time, she succeeded.The ceiling of the bedroom appeared before her eyes, and she remained looking at it for a few seconds, confused. She was home, in the room she shared with Alexei. The light was low, and the curtains were partially closed, allowing only a strip of brightness to cross the space. She turned her face and found Alexei sitting beside the bed, still dressed, his back against the headboard, arms crossed and eyes fixed on her.As soon as he realized she had woken up, he uncrossed his arms.“Hi.” The voice came out low, loaded with contained relief.“Hi…” Carla’s answer came out almost like a whisper, her throat dry.Alexei leaned

  • The Lycan’s Fated Mate   Chapter 109 — I Finally Know Where They Are

    Louise was led to one of the guest rooms of the Rurik mansion. The security guard opened the door and waited for her to enter, the gesture impersonal.“You can stay here.” The voice was neutral, without threat.She looked at the room, surprised. It was far too comfortable for a prisoner. A large bed, an armchair near the window, a private bathroom, and a small side table. No barred windows, no chains, no handcuffs. But Louise knew that did not mean freedom — it simply meant that Alexei did not consider her dangerous enough for extreme measures.The security guard placed her phone on the table, and she looked at the device.“Can I keep it?”“That’s what Mr. Rurik ordered.” The man answered before leaving.The door closed, and Louise remained still for a few seconds. Only then did she look at her own hand — the fingers were still swollen and purple, hurting badly. She had watched them be broken and put back into place during the interrogation, but she did not care. Not in that moment. T

  • The Lycan’s Fated Mate   Chapter 108 — I Still Need Her

    The interrogation room of the Rurik mansion was not a place used frequently. Alexei did not like bringing problems into the house. But that night was different.The woman was sitting in front of the table, her hands bound behind the chair. There were no more hospital staff, no busy corridors, no open doors. There, she had nowhere to look for help. Alexei entered alone and closed the door behind him, and the click of the lock seemed much louder than it should have.She raised her eyes, her face pale.“Where are we?”Alexei walked to the table and placed a file on it.“In my house.”She swallowed hard, her fingers closing tightly.“Why? Why did you bring me here?”“Because you drugged my mate inside a hospital.” Alexei pulled the chair and sat in front of her. “And I don’t usually let that kind of thing slide.”The woman looked away, and Alexei rested his elbows on the table.“So let’s start again.” He opened the file, but did not look at it. “Your name.”She remained silent, her lips p

  • The Lycan’s Fated Mate   Chapter 107 — I Gave Her a Chance

    Alexei only left the woman when he was certain she would not be able to leave the hospital without someone noticing, and then he went to Carla. He found her in one of the rooms reserved for observation, surrounded by a medical team.She remained asleep, her face peaceful, her breathing regular, and for a moment Alexei felt his chest tighten with a mixture of relief and fury. Relief because she was alive, fury because someone had dared to touch her.“Is she all right?” The question came out harsher than he intended.One of the doctors raised her eyes from the chart, her expression professional.“She’s stable. Her vital signs are normal, and there are no signs of neurological complications.”“What happened? What did they give her?”“She was sedated. Someone administered a sedative substance intravenously.”Alexei’s fingers slowly closed at his sides, but his voice remained controlled, almost cold.“Any serious reaction? Anything that could leave aftereffects?”“No. The dose does not app

  • The Lycan’s Fated Mate   Chapter 106 — You Still Think You’re in Control

    Alexei walked down the corridor beside her without saying a word. The woman kept her arms close to her body, trying to look calm, but the tension in her shoulders was obvious to anyone who knew how to observe.There were still staff moving around. Nurses entering and leaving rooms, doctors crossing the corridors, people talking. Everything continued functioning normally, and that should have been comforting. For her, perhaps it was. For Alexei, it was merely convenient.From the moment he had entered the hospital that morning, he had observed everything: the rooms, the doors, the corridors, the exits, the blind spots, the cameras, the positions of the security personnel, who answered to whom.He knew that place better than she imagined — not because he worked there, but because Carla worked there, and because after the kidnapping, Alexei never again left Carla in a place he did not know.He stopped in front of a door. The sign indicated a small room used for internal meetings, and it

  • The Lycan’s Fated Mate   Chapter 105 — I Already Knew She Was Lying

    Carla was exhausted. It was not just the ordinary tiredness of a long shift — the last few days had been far too heavy, and her body seemed finally to be collecting everything she had been ignoring. She entered the rest room accompanied by her colleague and left her bag on a chair, her shoulders slumped.“I just want to sleep for a few minutes. Before the shift swallows me again.”“Then sleep.” The woman answered with a soft smile. “I’ll stay here and wake you when it’s time.”Carla nodded without questioning. There was no reason to. She had known that woman long enough to trust her. They had shared shifts, conversations, bad coffee, and endless hours inside that hospital.She was just a colleague, a friend, someone Carla would never have imagined needing to distrust.“You’re really very tired.” The woman commented, observing Carla’s pale face.“I am.” Carla sat on the sofa and rested her head against the backrest, closing her eyes. “I think if I close my eyes, I won’t wake up again.”

  • The Lycan’s Fated Mate   Chapter 5 — Prisons

    Dmitry opened his eyes and knew he was no longer in the waking world.It wasn’t the first time.That luxurious hall, with its ancient architecture and silent opulence, had welcomed him before. A distorted reflection of reality, perhaps. Or an ethereal plane that only existed in the intersections be

    “This is going to be a problem, Alpha.”The Lycan murmured in his mind, its voice low and drawn out, like a warning whispered through clenched teeth.Dmitry didn’t respond. He moved his wrist discreetly, checking his watch as if trying to remind himself that time still followed rules. It was an exc

  • The Lycan’s Fated Mate   Chapter 3 — Forbidden Flame

    The large meeting room at Rurik Motors exuded power. The floor-to-ceiling glass windows offered a privileged view of Moscow, while the dark wooden oval table dominated the center of the room. The black leather chairs, the discreet shine of the metal details, and the absence of any decorative excess

  • The Lycan’s Fated Mate   Chapter 2 — Golden Cage

    The glass-walled room on the top floor of Rurik Motors offered a silent spectacle of Moscow at night — cold, pulsating, and indifferent. Dmitry stood before the wall of glass, shoulders straight, a lit cigarette between his fingers, releasing the smoke with the same slowness with which time seemed
