The apartment was immersed in a strange, almost reverent silence, broken only by the occasional creak of the floorboards and the soft sound of boxes being dragged. The familiar scent of old coffee, books, and cheap shampoo still lingered in the air, as if Jenn were about to walk through the door at any moment.

Carla pushed a box of clothes into the corner of the room, wiping her hands on her leggings, while Susan carefully folded the covers from Jenn’s bed, her eyes watery but serene.

  • The Lycan’s Fated Mate   Chapter 60 — I Think the Answers Are Waiting for Me

    That afternoon, the two of them were sitting together on the bed — she leaning against his chest, absently leafing through a romance novel Susan had brought — while Alexei slowly stroked her hair, his fingers tracing soft circles on her scalp. His phone vibrated on the nightstand.He looked at the screen. The smile disappeared.Carla noticed immediately, her body tensing.“Did something happen?”He remained looking at the number for a few seconds. He knew that phone.“I’ll be right back. It’s an important call.”He kissed her forehead, his lips lingering a second longer.“Don’t run away.”She smiled — a weak but genuine smile.“I can barely walk. I’m not going anywhere.”“Excellent argument. I’m going to use that against you in the future.”He left the room, carefully closing the door behind him. Only then did he answer, bringing the phone to his ear.“Hello?”On the other end, a feminine voice already marked by age answered softly.“Alexei… I’m glad you picked up. I thought a lot bef

  • The Lycan’s Fated Mate   Chapter 59 — I Thought I Would Never Come Back

    The weeks passed slowly. For the first time in a long while, Carla learned that recovering could be harder than surviving. Her body was still demanding the price of the poison. In the first days, walking to the window of the medical wing felt like a marathon. Breathing deeply made her throat burn, her legs trembled, exhaustion appeared without warning. But every morning, there was a face waiting for her.Alexei. He was simply there. Always. When she woke up, when she dozed, when she felt afraid, when she needed to laugh, when she needed only to remain in silence.On the third day, she gave up saying she could get a glass of water by herself. Because Alexei was already holding out the glass before she even thought of it.“You’re unbearable.”He smiled, leaning back in the chair beside the bed, his light eyes shining with the usual provocation.“Thank you.”“That wasn’t a compliment.”“In your language it was. I translated.”She rolled her eyes.“Conceited.”“Very.”“Arrogant.”“Also.”

  • The Lycan’s Fated Mate   Chapter 58 — The More I Discover, the Less I Understand

    The laboratory had been silent for hours. The only sounds were the constant hum of the computers, the slow turning of pages in ancient books, and the occasional scratch of a pen on a notepad.Outside, night was falling once again over Moscow, but Pavel barely noticed the passage of time.He ran his tired fingers over his eyes. The cup of coffee beside him had gone cold long ago, forgotten next to three other equally empty ones. Two lines of research completely occupied his attention. The first was relatively simple: the scent described by Sasha—wet earth, ancient moss, cedar, pine, burnt sage, resinous incense. The second… was anything but simple. The brooch.The small metal piece remained under a powerful magnifying lens, illuminated by an intense white light that left no detail unnoticed. Pavel observed it for the hundredth time. He rotated it, measured it, weighed it, scanned it with every piece of equipment available in the laboratory.Nothing. Absolutely nothing.No inscriptions,

  • The Lycan’s Fated Mate   Chapter 57 — You Came Back to Me

    The room was silent, except for the rhythmic beeping of the monitors—a sound Alexei had learned to hate and love at the same time, because it meant she was still alive.He remained exactly where he had been. Sitting beside the bed, one hand holding hers, the other resting on his own leg.His eyes burned with exhaustion, his whole body ached, and the pangs of the bond still throbbed faintly in his chest. Sasha had practically forced him to take a shower, change clothes, and eat something, and had also managed to make him sleep for a few minutes in the armchair.But as soon as he woke up, he immediately returned to that chair. He didn’t want to be anywhere else. Not for a second.The Lycan remained silent. There were no jokes, no teasing, only a patient vigil, silently protecting his mate.Alexei closed his eyes for a few seconds. Maybe five, maybe ten. Until he felt a squeeze. Weak, almost imperceptible, in his hand.His eyes opened instantly. His heart slammed against his ribs. He lif

  • The Lycan’s Fated Mate   Chapter 56 — I Understood How Much They Loved Each Other

    The smell of rare meat filled the room even before the tray crossed the door.“Thank the gods…” Yuliam practically sighed, already trying to sit up in bed.The nurse raised an eyebrow, her fingers firm on the tray.“The doctor said slowly. Gradual recovery.”“I am going slow. This is my normal speed.”She looked at the vampire, who was already sitting up, his eyes shining with anticipation.“That’s not slow. That’s a man who should be lying down.”“For a vampire who was almost dead, this is practically a sleepy turtle.”Feliks laughed from the other side of the room. Andrey just shook his head, but there was a contained smile on his lips.“You almost died and you’re still unbearable.”“It’s a natural talent.”From outside, one of the security guards entered with two more trays, balancing them carefully.“Orders from Mr. Sasha. He said to feed the patient well.”Yuliam opened a smile, his light eyes shining.“I knew I liked him. From the first moment.”“He said you could choose between

  • The Lycan’s Fated Mate   Chapter 55 — Finally a Clue

    Andrey remained seated beside his brother’s bed since dawn.Yuliam was breathing better now. The antidote had worked, and the monitors showed stable vital signs.But his skin remained absurdly pale, like someone who had lost all the energy in their body in a single battle.Feliks was on the other side of the room, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed. Neither of them said much.After what they had seen in the forest — the maid being consumed by the black smoke, Yuliam fallen in the snow — the silence felt more comfortable than any words.Andrey took his phone out of his pocket and dialed a number he knew by heart. The call was answered before the second ring.“Speak.”Boris Demidov’s deep voice crossed the line. No greetings, no formalities, just the expectation of a report.“Patriarch. It’s me, Andrey.”“How is Yuliam?”He looked at his unconscious brother, his chest rising and falling in a still fragile rhythm.“Alive. Barely, but alive. The antidote worked.”On the other

    A week had dragged by since Dmitry had brought Susan to the Rurik mansion.Seven days of silent hell, where time stretched like molten steel and every beat of his heart was torture.His exhausting routine kept him away from her, and like a condemned man trying not to break his own chains, he avoide

  • The Lycan’s Fated Mate   Chapter 36 — She Is the Chaos He Always Needed

    Alexei’s private room was a sharp contrast to the rest of the Rurik mansion. Modern, with sober lines, black leather sofas, an entire wall of smoked glass, and a bioethanol fireplace lit more for aesthetics than necessity.The room smelled of polished wood, soft smoke, and aged vodka. A silent refu

    Dmitry was still watching Susan, his body relaxed in the armchair, but his mind alert. Her presence calmed the beast inside him… And, at the same time, provoked it. A paradox he still didn’t know how to manage.She broke the silence, her voice calm but with a discreet firmness.“Dmitry… Are you goi

    After lunch, Dmitry decided to take her on a tour of the mansion. She accepted gladly, as she needed to relieve the feeling of having been locked in that room since the beginning of the morning.“Wow…” Susan let out, her eyes scanning every detail with genuine admiration. “This is straight out of a
