Marvin

I had been staring at that silver blade for a long time, different thoughts sprawling wildly through my head like vines I couldn’t cut down. I didn’t even know what had gotten into me, but by the time my door burst open and two guards stormed in, I dragged my gaze away from the sharp, gleaming edges and lifted my eyes to meet their troubled stares.

Normally, I didn’t care in the least; I would have looked away. If it was Rita they had brought any news about, then I’m in no mood to get an

  • The Scarred Mate He Never Loved   20: The Goodbye

    MarvinI'm on the roof as I get to see my mum for the last time until I get to meet her again. Tears stung my eyes as they met with her pale eyes that weren't fully closed. She wasn't asleep. She was just… weak. Heavy. Fading.The sight tore through my chest. No matter how many times I prepared myself, I could never get used to seeing her like this, trapped in a body that had betrayed her, surviving on fragile hope when she should have been healed by now. Four years. Four years of darkness. Years of being confined to one place, and only hoping to get well again.And now, I get to say a partial goodbye, which I’m not sure if it would be the only goodbye I ever get to say to her.Her eyelids fluttered faintly. Her lips trembled as though she wanted to speak, but no sound came out. She didn’t have the strength. She could only look at me, and in that look, I saw sorrow. Regret. Apology.This was never the life she had wanted.My mum wasn’t just a mother. She was Luna. A woman adored by h

    MarvinI had been staring at that silver blade for a long time, different thoughts sprawling wildly through my head like vines I couldn’t cut down. I didn’t even know what had gotten into me, but by the time my door burst open and two guards stormed in, I dragged my gaze away from the sharp, gleaming edges and lifted my eyes to meet their troubled stares.Normally, I didn’t care in the least; I would have looked away. If it was Rita they had brought any news about, then I’m in no mood to get any more upset than I already was.“Alpha, we are sorry to intrude, but it’s a matter of urgency, and your dad ordered that we get you to his room with immediate effect since you have blocked him out over a couple of times.”“What could that be?” I asked. I didn’t like the way blood was rushing up to my head as they still knelt low on their knees.“It’s about Luna, your mum, she’s…”“What about my mum?” I was already tearing through the door and sprinting in the direction that led to Dad’s room.B

  • The Scarred Mate He Never Loved   18: A Monster

    Alpha PhilipI paced the length of my chamber like a caged beast, my boots striking the marble floor in restless rhythm. My son’s words echoed in my mind, each one slicing through me with ruthless precision. They did not merely wound, they burrowed deep, threading through every fibre of my being until I could no longer separate my thoughts from the ache they carried.He was drowning in pain. And I was forced to watch. It hurt so much to see him utterly devastated. When Beta Raymond had come to inform me of Marvin's state, it cut me deeper than I expected. It reached a depth no wound had ever reached before. But I could do nothing. This was what was best, both for him and for the pack.It was a hard decision on my part, but I couldn't do otherwise. My arms were tired at that moment, and they felt even heavier with the shocking discovery of Becky’s death. It was a huge blow, yet he still needed to proceed with the blood oath, as tradition demanded.When I later discovered he was in his

  • The Scarred Mate He Never Loved   17: Brutally Taken

    Slight trigger warning. But only fueled by grief, rage and resentment.Rita“Now choose,” he barked at me, and I shook violently under his roar. My lips trembled as the silver hung dangerously close to my face. I tried to duck away, but he used his free hand to pin my head in position—not touching me, but trapping it against the wall so I wouldn’t move an inch from where I stood; otherwise, I would be grazing the silver myself.His breath was hot against my face, feral and brutal, like one seeking revenge, like a hunter driven by something so intense.But I never committed any of the crimes I’m accused of. Even though they had led to this judgment, was it my fault that the moon chose to bond me with someone who was already betrothed to my sister by that same moon?“You don’t get to waste any more precious time. You choose, or you let me choose for you.” His lips curled to the side in sheer rage as he held my gaze, his blue eyes deepening into something darker and more unforgiving.“I…

  • The Scarred Mate He Never Loved   16: Two options

    RitaHe didn’t spare me a single glance, not even when the sacred knife pierced through his palm and then mine. The pain was sharp, searing, merciless, yet when our blood intertwined, something entirely different happened. It was intoxicating. Overwhelming. Consuming.A strange sensation swept through me like wildfire, and I gasped when Marvin’s eyes finally met mine for the first time since he had stepped foot into the ceremonial grounds. His gaze widened slightly, just a flicker of reaction, as a golden light slipped between our intertwined palms. The glow shimmered faintly in the dim space, casting a soft radiance over our faces, as though the moon itself had reached down to seal our fate.“That’s it. The moon blesses the bond,” the priest’s voice surged as he congratulated us and asked the next set to proceed.The ceremony continued in its full bloom, as each mated pair’s hands intertwined with their blood mixing. The light would also glow, and their smiles widened as they hugged

  • The Scarred Mate He Never Loved   15: Stop It

    RitaI survived that moment, and I’m still breathing. It was difficult to understand what Marvin meant by “two catches” until someone I least expected showed up in my room.“Thank you, Kate,” I whispered, my voice barely steady. I appreciated her concern, and the risk she had taken just to sneak in and check on me.Her face was smudged, yet her gaze never wavered. “I’m so sorry you have to go through all of that,” she said, her voice trembling with sincerity. “If I had known you would become Marvin’s mate, I never would have relieved you of your duties or insisted you attend the celebration. I thought I was doing what was right for someone who’d never had the chance to witness such moments before.”I only sniffled, lost for words. I still didn’t remember ever telling her about myself or that I had never attended any formal occasions.“It was never your fault. You only did what you thought was right.”“No,” she said, shaking her head, and picking at her palms nervously. “It was my faul
