Diala

When I felt Liam’s undeniable presence, I felt a skip in my pulse. No, not because I was afraid of him, but damn… what was Liam doing in this part of Darkshades?

Why was he so close to Damian again? I thought I had been informed the two never worked together after that incident four years ago. So what changed?

Why did it have to be at a time like this?

But I’m not putting off my disgust. Instead, I tightened my expression and faced him. I knew the potion couldn’t have worked strongly on h

  • The Rejected Plump Mate, Now Wanted   128: Their terrifying presence

    Aurora I was still on the bed, the duvet wrapped around my frame as though it were trying to shield me from the world itself. Even though there was no one else in the room besides Damian's scent that still lingered within every wall and corner of the guest room… especially near that door. It felt as though the dread and constant awareness of that guard’s brutal death refused to leave my subconscious, even as the seconds slowly ticked by. It felt more like someone was watching me. Like someone was truly watching my every breath, every movement, every action. Even though I was the only one in the room. I had tried to pull my thoughts away from that suffocating awareness and focus instead on the certainty Kiera was trying so desperately to offer. But the weight of uncertainty kept crashing down on us. It was true that Damian had faced far worse betrayals in the past. Diala's words kept echoing through my ears alongside the glimpse I had felt of him struggling through those sad,

  • The Rejected Plump Mate, Now Wanted   127: The loud howl 2

    Damian “Greetings, Alpha Damian,” Lydia greeted with a slight bow. “I know it's not my place to do this, but...” She bit down on her lower lip and lowered her head further, forcing the words out. “I'm only doing this because of Darius and what he represents.” My brows rose slightly as I stared down at the Omega whose head remained bowed. “Speak,” I ordered. I watched her tense subtly before lifting her head and glancing briefly around the crowd of Omegas whose eyes and faces were turned toward us, eager to hear whatever she had to say. Curiosity mingled with anticipation as she looked back at me. Goodness. I did not have this much time to waste. My mind kept drifting back to Aurora in that guest room and to that painful, hollow part of my chest where the memories still replayed mercilessly. “I would rather prefer your office, Alpha,” she said through obvious nervousness. I studied her composure. It was anything but calm. “What do you think, Aaron?” “Maybe we should hear

  • The Rejected Plump Mate, Now Wanted   126: The maid

    Damian The moment I left the courtyard and headed back toward the second floor where Aurora was staying, a heavy sense of urgency gripped my chest. Every step felt weighted. Every passing second seemed to drag endlessly. Aaron had been restless ever since that terrifying howl echoed through the territory, and truthfully, I wasn't much better. The mere thought of Aurora finding herself in danger again was enough to send adrenaline surging violently through my veins. When I climbed the last staircase and stepped into the corridor, my breath slowly returned at the sight of the door exactly the way I had left it. Still locked from the inside, which could only mean she was still inside and safe. I covered the distance quickly, stopping in front of the door just to reassure myself. Her scent clung to every fiber of my being, causing Aaron to settle, only briefly, as he released a sigh of relief. I wanted to step inside, but my hand paused midway as I reached for the door. The weight

  • The Rejected Plump Mate, Now Wanted   125: The aftermath 2

    The aftermath 2 Liam My gaze hardened. “Tell me who thought they could use you against me, and perhaps I'll consider letting you walk out of this alive, and maybe you can test your luck trying to send me to an early grave while I continue enjoying every benefit that body of yours has to offer.” A flicker of fear crossed her face once more. Only for a second, before it disappeared. “Speak, I don't have all day.” I ordered coldly. I loosened my grip and straightened up, wiping my palm with a small towel from my pocket before tossing it onto the floor in front of her. Finally, she exhaled sharply. “Fine.” “No one sent me, but... I think I saw the red sports wagon that parked shortly before you arrived.” She continued describing the vehicle and the unusual reassignment of guards that hadn't seemed right at the time. She had assumed it was simply one of the club's new security measures. “That's all I know.” She lowered her head again. I gently tilted her chin upward and crouc

  • The Rejected Plump Mate, Now Wanted   124: The aftermath

    LiamI took the last sip of my wine in one gulp before setting the cup down with a heavy thud and making my way out of my chambers toward the secret cell.As I walked, I couldn't stop my mind from drifting back to the mission. In fact, it was one of the reasons I had remained locked away in my chambers for so long instead of handling other matters. Waiting had never been one of my strengths, and yet that was exactly what I'd spent the last few hours doing.I paused briefly outside the corridor and slipped my phone from my pocket. My thumb brushed across the screen as I checked for notifications.Nothing, not a single message.A dark frown settled on my face.It had been several hours since the poison had been administered, and I knew its effects had already begun to show, making it impossible not to think everything through.Was he really that stupid not to value his own life?Or did he think I was merely joking when I told him that I was the only one who had the antidote?Not that I

    Aurora “Nothing much, Luna… I just came to check to be sure you are alright since you didn't show up for dinner,” she said with a note of genuine concern.And despite everything, it softened something in me.“Thanks for your concern. But I'm fine, as you can see. And speaking of which, Damien alre

    AuroraI'm so pissed off, angry, and a little terrified all at once.
