All Chapters of FORBIDDEN MATES: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

“Mum! What’s happening?” Adira cried, her voice trembling with fear as her wide eyes locked onto her sister’s writhing body. Her mother turned to respond, but something incredible unfolded before the words could escape her lips. Her sister suddenly stilled, as if Adira’s voice alone had quelled the storm within her. Everyone froze, a shocked look on their faces. “What happened?” Adira’s father asked, his voice carrying the question that echoed in everyone’s mind. Everyone looked clueless, including Adira. She was unaware that her sister's wolf responded to her voice. “Mum, what happened?” Adira repeated, her voice laced with worry as her eyes locked onto her mother. Her sister might be calm now, but she didn't look out of danger. “Your sister has been poisoned with silver,” her mother said grimly. “Her wolf is trying to purge it from her system.” Adira gasped, her eyes widening. Silver poisoning is as dangerous to wolves as it is to humans, only worse with wolves as

What happened?” Nate curiously questioned, his green eyes gleaming with excitement. He was always keen on a bit of girl gossip.Meredith and Adira turned their heads in unison, muttering like conjoined twins, “None of your business.”The other guys chuckled, while Nate glared at the girls, though there was no real anger in his eyes.Just then, the Alpha and the Luna walked into the room. The laughter stopped instantly as the young ones straightened their postures, trying to appear serious. They avoided eye contact with their leaders, except for Adira, who met her parents’ curious gazes head-on.“Mum, Dad,” she greeted softly, stepping away from Jake.The Alpha’s piercing gaze swept over the group, finally settling on Jake. “What are you all doing here? Why aren’t you at school?” he asked. His tone wasn’t scolding, just mildly curious.The friends exchanged glances, silently deciding to let Jake take the lead in responding.A little intimidated by the Alpha’s commanding presence, Jake

Kendra scoffed at her mother’s words, shaking her head in disbelief. The idea of her ruling the BlackMoon Pack was absurd. The Pack would never accept an Alpha who wasn’t born into their Pack, no matter how long she had lived among them. The truth was simple—she wasn’t one of them and never would be. “You seriously think the Pack will just stand by and let Dad hand over the Alpha title to me when he retires?” Her voice was laced with bitterness. Becoming Alpha wasn’t something she even desired, but knowing how impossible it was regardless of her worth stung. For one to rule, you need to have the blood of the Pack running in your veins, and Kendra’s blood is from another Pack. The rule is for all the Pack, not just the Black Moon Pack. An Alpha retired from leadership at fifty, passing the reins to a successor. “I do,” the Luna replied calmly. “Your father is the Alpha, and the Pack will respect his decision. You are the rightful heir to his position, Kendra. You have earned

With his piercing and tattoos, Meredith doesn't see the redhead as worthy of her attention. Her parents will not approve of someone like him. They are friends because the redhead is friends with Jake. Meredith’s words stung like a punch to the gut. Nate’s easygoing smirk faltered for a fraction of a second before he recovered, his walls going up as quickly as her barbs had landed. He was used to being judged for his tattoos, piercings, and the rebellious edge that seemed to put people off before they even got to know him. But this… this was harder to brush off, even though he tried. “Don’t flatter yourself,” he fired back, his voice smooth but laced with hidden pain. “Hell will freeze over before I ask you on a date. I just thought you might want to hang out. But if you’d rather be alone, fine by me.” He turned on his heel, ready to walk away before the cracks in his façade became visible. “Stop!” Meredith’s voice rang out with commanding authority, freezing Nate mid-step. There

Let’s go,” Meredith snapped at Nate, her voice sharp with urgency as she moved toward the door, not sparing him a backward glance. She had to get to Jake—before their friend did something he would regret.It seemed that whenever their blonde friend was involved, their usually level-headed boy lost all ounces of rationality.Nate hesitated, blinking at Meredith in confusion. He wasn’t ready to leave just yet—hadn’t even processed what was happening—but the blonde was already halfway to the door, leaving him with no choice but to follow.He had to jog to keep up because, despite the heels on her feet, Meredith moved with the intensity of someone in a high-speed chase.“Hey, what is wrong?” Nate demanded when he finally caught up with her.Meredith didn’t slow down or acknowledge him beyond a clipped response, her voice tight with urgency.“We need to get to Jake before he does something stupid.”At the mention of their dark-haired friend, Nate’s jaw tightened, his fists clenching involu
