~Chapter Forty Three~

~Elara’s POV~

I took a step back.

What was he doing here?

There was a look of anger on his face that made me uneasy.

“What are you doing here, Lucian?”

“I should be asking you that,” he replied in a low voice.

I folded my arms, my expression hardening.

“I’m having dinner here, as you can see, Lucian. So I think you should leave.”

He looked around the room, his gaze moving from the table to the candle before letting out a dry chuckle.

The anger on his fa

    ~Chapter Seventy Five~Elara’s POV “What?” I asked. She slowly backed away. “Forgive me.” She shook her head. “I shouldn’t have come.” My stomach dropped as I stood there, confused. What did she see? Was it the same thing I saw? Nala rushed toward her. “Ma’am, what’s the issue?” The old woman shook her head as she moved closer to the door. “Some truths are meant to be buried.” “I don’t understand, Ma’am.” Nala tried to calm her down, but the woman hurried out of the office. Nala turned to me while I exhaled deeply, my mind still reeling from what I had seen. What did she mean by doen turths are meant to be buried. “Do you know her?” Nala asked. I shrugged calmly. “No.” “Then why would she act like that?” She walked closer to me. “Do you want us to bring her back for answers?” I shook my head. “That won’t be necessary. We can visit her when she’s calmer.” I still needed to know what she had seen. Maybe it could help me understand why I kept seeing things like this and w

  • WANTED; THE ALPHA’S HUMAN MATE   ~74~ RED SILVER MOON

    ~Chapter Seventy Four~Elara’s POV With Kai’s seriousness, there was no way he was taking us somewhere that relaxing. I’d even heard places like that were ridiculously expensive. It was probably just another work trip. Bringing us along was his way of keeping the promise he’d made to take Zara out. I left Zara with the man she had been talking to earlier. I still had the Wolfless child to attend to. More urgently because Kai would come looking for me at any moment to tell me about the trip. Not that I was interested anyway. I was still upset that he had hidden something that important from me for reasons I didn’t understand. Nala was my only hope with the Wolfless case. “I need your help, Nala,” I admitted. “Always here, Luna.” She smiled as she curtsied. “What is it about?” I rolled my eyes.“I need anything you can find on Wolfless children. Their history. Families who have one. Anything.” “Oh…” She paused. “We could search the pack library or find someone who actually r

  • WANTED; THE ALPHA’S HUMAN MATE   ~73~ SOUL BONDING

    ~ Chapter Seventy Three~Kai’s POV Hiding this from Elara was never my intention. How was I supposed to tell her that completing the bond meant sleeping with her? The very thing that could finally stabilize the bond could also harm her, worse kill her. The way she looked at me, demanding answers, made me hate the position I was in—having to choose between us. If I told her, stubborn Elara would probably agree to it, just as she had agreed to the marking. Not because she wanted it. Because she would think it was the only way to balance things. That wasn’t the kind of consent I wanted. I wanted her just as much, but I wanted her to choose me because she was ready, not because she had no choice. Yet I couldn’t shake the feeling that the mating would claim her this time. The only reason she had survived the marking was because we never went beyond it. This time, there would be no potion or the pack doctor standing between her and what the bond demanded. Mating wasn’t just sex

  • WANTED; THE ALPHA’S HUMAN MATE   ~72~ COFEE

    ~Chapter Seventy Two~Elara’s POV I stormed out of the clinic with no answers. The fact that the doctor refused to tell me anything made me regret coming to the clinic in the first place. After I asked whether I was the problem, he shook his head. When I asked if I needed to be bitten again, he said no to that too. That should have given me some relief. Instead, my desperate need to understand what was happening to Kai only grew stronger. Why had a giant wolf suddenly appeared in front of me? What exactly was needed for the incomplete bond they were hiding? Was it really that hard for him to make a decision? Harder than marking me, even after we knew the consequence was death? Frustrated, I headed to the coffee shop, hoping I’d find Zara there. Just as I expected, she was there talking to a young man who looked vaguely familiar. The moment she spotted me, she walked over with a grin and a drink in hand. “Ooh… look who finally decided to show up,” she teased. “God, Zara.”

  • WANTED; THE ALPHA’S HUMAN MATE   ~71~ THE BOOK

    ~Chapter Seventy One~ Elara’s POV “What do we need to do to complete the bond?” I asked. He looked at me for a long moment before looking away. “Kai?” I called, my voice low. Why did he stop talking? Was it bad news? Or… was I the problem? His jaw tightened instead as he turned toward the door. My heart dropped, hoping he’d tell me something… anything. But he opened the door. “Get some rest. We have a long day tomorrow.” Before I could ask another question, the sound of the door closing echoed through the room. What long day was he talking about? He had left me hanging with so many questions. It was becoming a habit for him. Fine. If he wouldn’t tell me…I’d find out myself. The next morning, I woke up feeling strangely drained. One of those mornings when all I wanted was to stay in bed, lock myself away from everyone, and think. For the first time, I didn’t even bother wondering where Kai had gone. I was used to him leaving before I woke up. Maybe

His golden eyes flickered for a second before he looked away.I cupped his cheeks with both hands. “Tell me. What is the medicine for, and why did you transform the way you did?”I could barely make out his face in the shadows.“Elara…” He paused, breathing hard. “We should go back inside.”“That’s not an answer, Kai.” I held his hands. “What’s happening to you?”His jaw tightened. “I’m trying to keep you safe.”How? Not knowing isn’t helping me know what he's protecting me from.“From what?” I stepped in front of him as if I could stop him from walking away.“You could have gotten hurt today, Elara,” he said through clenched
