By this time of the morning, omegas are already at their duty posts, doing their respective activities, which include breakfast and every other chore.

It made a cold pit settle in my stomach as I hurried out of the kitchen floor towards the servant quarters, only to feel certain eyes following me.

I didn’t stop, I forced my way in, only to spot Sable slipping through the narrow, shabby hallway. Her face was twisted in a deeper, sharper disgust, and her eyes dragged over me slowly, deliberately,

  • The Scarred Mate He Never Loved   91: His condition

    Rita I remained by the side of the bed, carefully pressing the damp cloth against Marvin’s forehead while watching his still face for even the slightest reaction. “You can let me do that if you are in any way tired.” Renz stepped into the room quietly and offered to help. “Yes, please.” I breathed out in exhaustion as I moved away, allowing him to take my place beside Marvin. “My back hurts so much,” I admitted, stretching stiffly and yawning as I dragged myself toward the small two-seated couch positioned at the side of the room. “I thought as much. That was the reason I had to finally end the meeting with the elders and get back here as soon as possible.” At the mention of the elders, my attention shifted immediately. I knew I probably had no right to ask about their opinions regarding everything that had happened, but a part of me still needed to know. Even if their judgment hurt, I wanted to at least be aware of it. “What was their take?” Renz released a sharp breath as he

  • The Scarred Mate He Never Loved   90: Answers

    Alpha NoxSo far, I’ve had countless sleepless nights, my head spinning endlessly from the discoveries tied to my latest findings, and I still don’t know how to feel about this piece of information weighing heavily on me.“You shouldn't have left the way you did,” my wolf howled in my head, his voice filled with accusation.“But I didn’t have a choice. I had to remain focused on reclaiming my strength. I had to focus on the mission. There was no room for distractions.”“And you thought she was a distraction?”As difficult as it was to admit, I still forced the truth out.“Yes… at that time, she was a huge distraction I didn’t want to venture into.”Another wave of silence followed, heavy and suffocating, as the memory returned sharply and vividly, replaying every single detail with brutal precision.That night. Exactly eighteen years and nine months ago.In those woods, during the journey I had embarked on for my quest, I met a lady with long dark hair, piercing hazel eyes, and the ki

  • The Scarred Mate He Never Loved   89: Waiting

    RitaWe arrived at the hospital pretty soon, and Marvin was rolled onto a stretcher and wheeled toward the emergency ward. We were made to wait outside as a troupe of doctors and nurses rushed up and filled the hallway in urgency.Orders were barked and carried out immediately, and Renz stood right by my side, pulling everything within him not to follow after the nurses. I was standing there as well, equally fighting the urge to follow after them.I don’t know what this feeling is, but I want him to pull through. I want him to see for himself what it feels like to be in pain and yet have no way around it, no escape from it.And so painfully, I want him to see what it feels like to face pain and still fight through it just to survive. But Kate never got to survive. I can’t stop the tears that well in my eyes as her thoughts come flashing back, and then the thought of Marvin, the mate who never loved me.The mate who found pleasure in causing me pain and stripping away every last shred

  • The Scarred Mate He Never Loved   88: Cold in my arms

    Rita“Emily?”He asked.I’m stunned as he holds my chin, but then a flash of recognition hits me, just as quickly as it appears it melts away, replaced by confusion that I tried to pull away from.But he held me firm with just his finger, not strong enough to hurt, but his eyes held onto mine, something intense and unreadable that I couldn’t understand was there.My eyes dropped to his other arm and I didn’t turn, but he let go of Renz who dropped down onto his feet.“Who’s your mum?” he asked, but as I tried to push backwards, feeling a strange sense of dread curling into my body, he let go of my chin. His eyes blazed in confusion when a voice blared from behind.An average-looking man, almost the same age as him, appeared. His face contorted into a deep frown as he spoke, “Alpha, what are you doing?”The alpha’s face shifted as he didn’t turn immediately, something conflicting visible on his expression. His eyes followed mine, dropping low where Renz had managed to try to lift Marvi

  • The Scarred Mate He Never Loved   87: Recognition

    RenzWhen I had entered that battlefield with Rita, I knew one thing, that my instincts weren’t wrong. My findings couldn’t have been wrong.There was no possible way we could gain the upper hand in such a fierce, merciless battle against brutal dark forces without her, without her presence, without whatever power she carried within her. I had already confirmed my suspicions the previous day when I went to her room. But everything inside me cracked, my thoughts splintering into chaos, the moment I saw Marvin in the state I found him.He wasn’t just my friend. He was my Alpha. And even though he was stubborn, damn stubborn, and never gave attention to important matters other than those his thoughts were already fixed on, he was still like a brother to me. And I was his Beta… the one who had stood beside him through everything, even when it wasn’t easy, even when it burned.It pained my chest and made me rush to him, while also shielding Rita from the warriors, but I myself knew that wa

  • The Scarred Mate He Never Loved   86: Brutal Attack: Turning Point

    RitaFrom the distance I stood, far away from her reach, her lips muttered subtly as her eyes closed shut. I could pick every bit of whatever she was muttering, which was so strange to me, judging by my distance from her.It felt like an ancient language I strangely recognized as:“Let the spirit of the ancient grant me access through my offerings.”Then suddenly, something enveloped me, something strange I couldn't understand either, but it was there, oddly familiar, like the silent whispers at that well. Only now, I didn't feel so unconscious like I could have felt if it were that other time.Feeling unconscious at an hour like this would have been an automatic death sentence.The air itself felt heavier, thick with a looming danger that pressed down on everything. And then the power hit. It surged through me violently, like a current tearing through my veins, and the whispers grew louder, louder until they roared inside my head. My wolf stirred sharply, rising with a dangerous int

    RitaI blinked, confused, wanting to speak, but before I could even form words, everything became blank, void, empty, only leaving me with the realization that I was still under the shower and, worse, the loud bang from the shower door.I quickly slipped into another set of clothes I had brought al

    Four years laterRita“You.”His voice roared in my head, so terrifying that I had to jump out of bed to the blurring sound of the alarm by my bedside.

    Slowly, I forced my eyes open, my heart already prepared to plead, to swear I hadn’t seen anything, to beg for mercy. But as my lips twitched with no words forming, only broken whispers, I found the foot of the tree empty.No one was there.I looked around from the tree, and no one came into view e
