Aurora.

I sneaked out of my room, I was already getting sick of been locked up like a dog in a cage. I walked through the long, corridors of the house, my footsteps echoing off the walls.

Where was everyone?

Everything was still, almost too still. The pack house felt like it was holding its breath, like it was waiting for something to happen.

As I made my way down a narrow hallway, I stumbled upon something that made my blood run cold.

Through a partially open door, I caught the voices of two people. The first voice was unmistakable—the Beta. But the second was the alpha's stepmother. I froze, not wanting to make a sound. My heart pounded in my chest as I pressed myself against the wall, careful to stay out of sight.

“I told you, Beta,” the Luna’s voice was sharp, “Get Ethan to sign those papers. We can’t afford to waste any more time, I want him out of that throne, don't you get it?.”

The Beta’s response was low, but I could hear the tension in his voice. “It’s not as simple as you

  • Wanted by my ex mate    Chapter 23

    Aurora.The first thing I noticed was the buzzing.Low. Persistent. My phone.I groaned, pulling the blanket tighter around my body, hoping to drown it out. The morning light hadn't even fully spilled through the curtains, and my limbs felt too heavy, like I was swimming through sleep. My hand reached out instinctively, not for the phone, but for Kaiser.My fingers brushed empty sheets.I froze.My hand searched again, blindly, desperately. The cold side of the bed was always his territory. But it was vacant. Neatly tucked, as though no one had even laid there last night.“Kaiser?” My voice was barely a whisper, hoarse with sleep.No answer. Just the buzzing again, now louder. Urgent.I sat up straight. A thick knot formed in my stomach as I grabbed the phone off the nightstand, expecting to see maybe a message from him.But my screen exploded with missed calls, texts, and a voicemail notification, all from one name: Ama's School.My breath caught. A chill ran down my spine.I tapped

  • Wanted by my ex mate    Chapter 22

    Ethan.I stared out into the night, gripping the window ledge harder than I should’ve. Couldn’t see much—just shadows pressed against more shadows. The bedroom I’d chosen faced west, toward the valley’s main entrance. In the daylight, I would’ve seen everything: the rim, the slope, the river cutting through it all like a dark vein. But now? Just black and more black.Still, I knew where she’d gone. I’d heard Aurora leave. Heard her steps, soft but certain, circling around the house toward the creek. I didn’t need to see her to know. I could feel her out there, as clearly as if my body was tuned to hers.I pictured her—running. Ivan’s bright gypsy skirts around her waist, tangled in the wind. Those long, gorgeous legs moving fast. God.“honey?” Ivan’s voice slipped into the air behind me, warm and dangerous. I didn’t turn, but I felt her, bare and confident, pressing her chest against my back. Her hands were everywhere—one sliding down, gripping me through my jeans. I was hard, yeah. B

  • Wanted by my ex mate    Chapter 21

    Aurora.I sat curled on my bed for what felt like ages, my arms wrapped around my knees. The world outside had shifted, my damp hair had dried, and the sunlight was fading fast. I didn’t even know what I was feeling anymore. So I just stopped trying to feel. Thinking had only brought pain and confusion, so letting my mind go blank felt like the only peace I could find.I leaned back, pressing myself against the cool wall, my eyes fixed on the locked door. I was completely still, as if frozen by exhaustion that went deeper than my bones. I turned slightly, hoping to glimpse the sunset, but the window view was blocked as I should’ve expected. The encircling cliffs of this lifeless valley loomed outside, hiding the sky. Darkness was creeping in.Then the smells hit me, thick, spicy, mouthwatering. Something was frying, something rich and hearty was simmering. My stomach twisted with longing. I sat up straighter, almost against my will. I couldn’t remember food ever smelling that good. Th

  • Wanted by my ex mate    Chapter 20

    Ethan.I could feel the rage simmering inside of me, an angry storm I couldn’t escape. It had been building for days, maybe even weeks—this deep, gnawing frustration that Aurora had played with my emotions and pushed me into a corner. She had chosen her game, and now I was going to play by her rules. I didn’t care anymore about the little nuances or the games she liked to play. If this was what she wanted, I would indulge her, but I would do it on my own terms.I gritted my teeth as I stood there, eyes narrowed, my mind racing through the consequences of my decisions. But then, something shifted within me, and I knew what I had to do next.I called for Ivan.Within moments, there she was, standing in the doorway of my study, looking like a picture of innocence. The sweet, doe-eyed girl with all the right moves. She stepped inside, her eyes shining as she smiled at me, her confidence already radiating. It was almost laughable how quickly she shifted her mood from timid to overtly flirt

  • Wanted by my ex mate    Chapter 19

    Ethan.The phone in my hand felt heavier than usual as I dialed the number I had paid a hefty sum to. It rang twice before the low voice of the spy came through the line, gruff and slightly distorted from the cheap connection."Speak.""Tell me what you know about my beta," I said, my voice cold and authoritative, the words leaving my mouth with an edge that had been honed from years of leadership and power.There was a long pause before the spy spoke again. "Your beta… he’s been busy, Ethan. Very busy."My mind immediately went on high alert. I leaned forward in my chair, gripping the phone tighter as if it could anchor me to reality. "Busy with what?""He’s been spotted frequently meeting with rogues," the spy continued. "More than usual. I’ve seen him outside the borders, near the perimeter. And I don’t believe it’s by chance. He's likely involved in the attacks on your borders, or at least connected to those who are."I swallowed hard, every word sinking into my gut like a stone.

  • Wanted by my ex mate    Chapter 18

    Ethan.I stood in the hallway, hidden by the corners, my eyes locked on the scene unfolding in front of me. Kaiser’s laugh echoed through the air, sharp and insistent. His hand was resting casually on Aurora’s shoulder, a touch that made something inside me burn, a fire that I couldn’t suppress. I gritted my teeth, clenching my fists at my sides. He was leaning in too close to her, speaking in a tone too soft, too intimate. My wolf growled, a low rumble deep in my chest, a sound that I was sure only I could hear, but it was there. Loud and angry, echoing in the very marrow of my bones.I could barely breathe.My eyes narrowed as I watched them. It wasn’t just his presence that irked me—it was the way he moved around her, the way she seemed to lean into him, as if she belonged there. She didn’t. She shouldn’t. I knew she shouldn’t, but the jealousy gnawed at me like a wound that wouldn’t heal. My wolf was agitated too, pacing restlessly inside me. We both knew this was wrong.“Just go
