Diala

I watched her shrink into herself as visible fear slowly replaced that earlier surprise and shock on her face, and it gave me the deep satisfaction I had so badly craved, a smirk curling effortlessly onto my lips.

“Your face is surely picturable. And I don’t mind getting one framed so I can always laugh over it,” I said to her, catching the subtle shift in her expression as my words sank in.

“I thought you were different, friendly, and had a free, calming spirit that I could feel safe aro

  • The Rejected Plump Mate, Now Wanted   132: The secret chamber

    DamianIt was faint. Far too faint. But it belonged to her. It belonged to our mate.Aaron fought against the growing pull toward her with brutal rage, resisting every instinct screaming at us to stop. Yet, as we took another step, a freezing sensation suddenly enveloped us.The air shifted violently, charged with something dark and unnatural. The soft whimpers we had been hearing broke for only a fleeting second before the screams tore through again; sharp, menacing, bruised, raw, guttural… and then suddenly, nothing.Silence.Aaron pushed through the crushing darkness and eerie stillness, forcing himself forward as whatever unseen force held us loosened just slightly. In that brief opening, we stormed into the room with full force.And then my eyes landed on them.Four of them.They circled around a bright light flashing against the wall. My gaze snapped across the room, searching frantically…But Aurora was nowhere in sight.And her scent… was fading.Almost nonexistent.My heart n

  • The Rejected Plump Mate, Now Wanted   131: My mate

    DamianI stormed out of my office without another thought, my boots striking harshly against the polished floor as I headed straight for the main staircase leading to the second floor where Aurora was.Every second felt heavy.My mind swirled with unease, dread coiling tightly around us. Aaron stirred dangerously beneath my skin, restless and furious, clawing at every fragment of control I had left. The tension inside me grew heavier with each breath, turning my lungs tight and strained, as though even the air refused to settle inside me properly.That loud howl coming again, this time sounding far more distinct than before. The guards trembling, the mention of the Luna, and the sheer fear and dread curling around them was something I never saw coming.That wasn’t ordinary panic. It wasn’t confusing.It was terror.Pure, suffocating terror.I barely slowed when I crossed paths with the elders near the clearing. They looked ready to approach me, but the moment their eyes landed on me,

  • The Rejected Plump Mate, Now Wanted   130: Monica 2

    The witch Monica My mind drifted back to the fragile, plump lady standing by the window as she traced her gaze through the tree line, and for one fleeting moment, my eyes locked with hers. Something stirred within me. Even though she could not see me, of that I was certain, I still felt exposed beneath her gaze. Yet I saw her clearly enough to feel as though I could reach directly into her mind. That cloud surrounding her. That force buried beneath her skin. That strange thing lurking deep within her soul. I had been wrong in my assumptions. I wanted to reach it. I wanted to unravel it piece by piece until every hidden truth revealed itself before me. I had the urge to. I needed to know. I desired to soothe the restless ache clawing at my chest. But then she looked away. She turned her face from the woods and broke the invisible connection between us, and a low frustrated groan nearly slipped from my chest, interrupting the process of the ritual itself. Then suddenly, I felt

  • The Rejected Plump Mate, Now Wanted   129: Monica

    The Witch MonicaNever in all my centuries of existence had I encountered a case as severe and maddeningly complicated as the one unfolding before me now. And to worsen the entire ordeal, it felt as though I had stepped into this battle completely unprepared, stripped of every certainty I once carried with pride.When Raymond sought me out for help, I thought it was finally time to do something for him. My way of giving back to him.At first, it truly had. The mission unfolded plainly, smoothly, almost too perfectly, with success already lingering within reach.But who could have imagined that the Moon Goddess had entirely different plans hidden within her grasp?Who would have thought she would bind him to another so suddenly? And not merely to some ordinary woman, but to one carrying something ancient, something disturbingly powerful, something I could neither fully understand nor place together no matter how hard I tried.It pissed me off the more I thought along those lines, becau

  • 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,

    DamianI turned toward the familiar face standing before me. A man about my age, with that same polished, confident smile sitting effortlessly on his lips. Sharp jawline, neatly trimmed dark hair styled with precision, dark trousers and a fitted shirt beneath a crisp white doctor’s coat that made h

    DamianThe vast land stretched out before me like an irritable curse that, no matter what, you could never pull away from. Aaron sat quietly in my head, unusually silent for once. Just like me, he was already drained from everything that had happened so far, yet instinct kept dragging us forward wh

    DailaThe pain of that moment was something I couldn't live without. It was something that had always haunted me. Something that wouldn't heal even though time itself had passed.“You left without a word,” I said quietly to Damian as he stood lingering by the gates of the cell. He wasn't alone. Dar

    Liam“No… no… no…” I kept pounding my fists against the steering wheel as the words tore sharply from my throat.My mind was so rigid right now that I felt like I could wrench down an entire pack with the brutality of my rage.That call, those texts, and those pictures couldn’t possibly be real.
