All Chapters of Keeping My Mate: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒ My heart was about to burst out of my chest. The sound of screaming was echoing through the walls of the darkened castle. I had never heard anything like this, and it worried me that no one else seemed to be around to check it out. I crept out of bed and followed the screams, until it led me to the outside of Leo's bedroom door. Leo had decided that locking me in my room was the wrong way to go about keeping me here, so he let me roam freely as long as I promised I wouldn’t run. Plus, I think his mother was serious when she said she would cook his wolf for dinner. I silently opened it, and I let out a small gasp. Although he was asleep in his gigantic king size bed, he was thrashing and there was sweat pooling on his forehead. His screams filled my ears, as I quietly walked towards the bed. A deep frown had formed on his face, and it made my heart ache. I gently pushed the covers back and got in beside him wanting to ease his pain. His screams si

☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒He pulled me out towards the sliding glass doors that lead to the back of the house. He brought me through the gardens where I could see a gorgeous man-made waterfall that filled the backyard with its soothing sound. The flowers were in full bloom, which were all different colors that wrapped around the house, causing the scent to be light and flowery. I let out a giggle, thinking back to Griffens comments about Leo showing me the gardens. Leo cocked an eyebrow at me but continued to lead me further.In the corner of my eye, I could see a large slab of concrete that laid in the very center. I walked over towards it immediately, realizing that it was huge. The way it laid, flowers surrounding its edge, could only mean that it was used for events that happened in the backyard.I closed my eyes, listening to the sounds of the waterfall, taking in the scent of my mate and the freshly bloomed flowers. Without realizing, my body began to move. Eve

☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒ The next morning, I woke up as a blistering heat consumed my body. It was not like before when I ran away from Leo. This was excruciating as it consumed every cell of my body my blood feeling as if it turned to lava within my veins. With each passing moment, the lava would spread, burning me from the inside out. I felt uncomfortable in my own skin, even as I sat in a tub full of ice. Leo had left for a meeting this morning, because neither of us had anticipated my heat starting. He had been gone for what felt like an eternity, but immediately rushed to my side at the sight of my very naked body sprawled on the bed, writing in pain. He was angry since no one had informed him of what was happening, but it subsided as soon as he saw how much pain I was in. I heard a growl rumble in his chest, as he came towards me straddling me, holding my hands above my head. His lips placed a gentle kiss on my mark, which sent a cold chill running through

☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒After multiple orgasms from Leo, my heat finally subsided. It had been almost four days since it started, and my body was begging to be anywhere but the bedroom. I tiptoed silently down the hallways making sure not to wake anyone up as I adventured towards the kitchen. I opened the cupboards searching for the perfect snacks for my midnight rendezvous. I grabbed the cookies which I thought would make a delectable snack at this hour and adventured towards the garden. A bright smile appeared on my face as the soft midnight breeze danced through my loose curls. I nibbled on the cookies I had found, and I let out a laugh of excitement as I made my way to the familiar slab of concrete.I slowly put my slippers on and began to dance freely around the concrete. Leo had been so kind as to get me multiple pairs of ballerina slippers so I thought that I could break these ones in.One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. One, two, three, four, fi

☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒☾⭒“Knock knock,” the man said, tapping on the door as if we had a choice to let him enter. I groaned as he slammed the door open, letting the bright light into the cell. It increased the pain in my head, making me wince. The only redeeming factor about him, was that so far he was the least vile person in this place, and for some reason his presence seemed to bring me some sense of calmness.“Can you let us go? Leo will be looking for us you know!’ I said, trying to convince even myself at this point. We've been here for what felt like forever, with no end in sight and my mother and I were starting to lose hope.“Oh, you think he’s looking for you, eh?” he scoffs, “Leo is actually preparing for his coronation, with Nina. You know Charlie, I would treat you like the Queen you are. Like you deserve”I froze in place, thinking I misunderstood. “You’re&helli
