The Unexpected Fated Mate Chapter 30
Vivienne (Michael’s Mother) Limited POV The soft hum of conversation and the gentle splash of water echoed through the upscale nail salon, where only the most elite clients could even dream of booking an appointment. Nestled in one of the plush leather chairs sat Vivienne Stone, regal as ever, her posture poised and back straight despite the lavender robe draped casually over her shoulders. Her manicured fingers cradled a crystal wine glass as a young technician worked carefully on her pedicure. “What on earth are they whispering about?” Vivienne muttered, her voice low but sharp enough to cut. Her eyes scanned the room—two stylists and a few women across the way were hunched over, whispering with animated expressions behind barely-disguised glances. “I swear, people love to gossip.” Marla Westin, her oldest friend and a woman nearly as feared in social circles as Vivienne herself, gave a small smirk and sipped her wine with the ease of someone used to secrets. “They could be talki
The Unexpected Fated Mate Chapter 29
Michael I leaned back in the leather chair in my private study, the room dim except for the soft amber glow of the lamp on my desk. The estate was quiet now. Anna and Dawn were in the guest wing. Ethan was asleep. And me? I was spinning—thoughts unraveling like thread, looping around one name. Anastasia Davenport. My fingers drummed against the armrest as I played the last few days over in my mind. The kidnapping. The shift. The attack in town. The scratch that nearly killed Darla. And then Anna—bleeding for the same woman who had tried to rip her apart. She didn’t hesitate. She acted purely on instinct. Compassion, even for someone who didn’t deserve it. She was still trying to come to terms with what she was. Hell—I was still trying to understand it myself. Whatever lived inside her wasn’t ordinary. She appeared so soft, fragile… but there was a beast beneath the surface. A lethal one. One that could kill with a single swipe. Even me. The thought sent a jolt of adrenal
The Unexpected Fated Mate Chapter 28
Anna Michael’s estate was quiet when we arrived, the kind of stillness that settles after chaos. Ethan was already asleep upstairs, tucked away under heavy blankets by one of the guards who had practically become family. Dawn had gone to the guest room to freshen up, but my stomach was in knots knowing the conversation ahead of us. I found Michael in his study, seated on the leather couch with a tumbler of whiskey in one hand, his other arm draped along the backrest. His sleeves were rolled to his elbows, the top few buttons of his shirt undone. He looked like he’d been carrying the weight of the entire world on his shoulders. And I was about to add more to it. “I need to tell her,” I said quietly. His eyes lifted to mine, calm but calculating. “Tell who?” “Dawn.” I stepped closer, the firelight from the hearth casting gold over the walls. “She deserves to know the truth. I can’t keep lying to her. You didn’t hear her today, Michael. She was scared. Confused. She thinks I’ve lo
The Unexpected Fated Mate Chapter 27
Anna “You’re my Luna.” That title… I couldn’t stop thinking about it. About what it meant. The way he said it — with so much certainty and reverence — it made something flutter inside me that I wasn’t ready to name yet. Not quite. And then there was the thought of being his wife. A more traditional, human word… but no less powerful. It stirred butterflies in my stomach just imagining what that life might look like. Waking up to him every morning. Raising Ethan in safety. Building something permanent. It scared me. But it thrilled me too. “Let’s get out for a bit,” Dawn suggested, her voice snapping me out of my reverie. “Some air, some shopping. I could use a dose of retail therapy.” Michael had agreed — reluctantly — but only if I took two of his guards with us. The town was on his territory, and he assured me that Damon would be foolish to try anything here… but still, I could see it in his eyes. He wouldn’t rest until he was sure we were safe. The guards followed be
The Unexpected Fated Mate Chapter 26
Michael The house was quiet when I stepped inside, save for the low hum of distant laughter and the faint echo of music lingering from earlier in the evening. I could still smell the charcuterie boards and sun-warmed pool water in the air. The day had been long—meetings, phone calls, and, most pressing of all, the ever-present headache that was Damon. Every time I thought I had him cornered, he found a way to slither out of reach. My wolf was restless. Agitated. Protective. But I’d made progress… and that was something. I loosened the top buttons of my shirt and stepped into my office, finally allowing myself to exhale. The fire was low in the corner, casting soft orange shadows across the dark wood of the room. I poured myself a drink, just as I heard a light knock. I turned and there she was. Anna. Wearing nothing but one of my t-shirts—her legs bare, her hair falling soft around her shoulders, her eyes filled with something I couldn’t quite name but wanted to drown in. She s
The Unexpected Fated Mate Chapter 25
Anna Ethan’s laughter echoed down the hallway, bouncing off the tall ceilings and polished floors like music. I peeked around the corner to find him in the middle of the living room, racing two action figures across the floor and making his own dramatic sound effects. He was… back. It was like the horror of that night had never happened. Part of me knew it was because of what Michael had arranged—the memory practitioner, the spell, or whatever you’d call it. And though a part of me still wrestled with the ethics of it all, I couldn’t deny the overwhelming relief flooding my chest every time I saw Ethan smile without fear. My baby was okay. And that was everything. As if on cue, my phone buzzed with a message from the driver Michael had sent to pick up Dawn. Driver: “We’ve arrived at the estate. Ms. Dawn is on her way up.” I stood and smoothed out the hem of my shorts just as the doorbell chimed. When I opened the grand double doors, there she was—Dawn, wearing oversized sungla
