All Chapters of The Alpha's Cursed Mate : Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Tiara's POVWe were out to gather fresh herbs. The healer had been introduced to me and I, to her. She was nice, and she was devoted to her job as the ForestHowl pack healer. Now I was glad to be of help to her, helping fetch herbs with the other lady, Laina, who occasionally helped out. The soft hum of insects filled the air, blending with the occasional rustling of leaves as a gentle breeze swept through the tall grass.I wiped my forehead, brushing away the light sheen of sweat forming on my skin. The scent of fresh earth mixed with the aroma of herbs, surrounding me as I carefully plucked feverfew leaves and placed them in the woven basket beside me.Memphis had given us clear instructions before wandering off to another part of the field. She trusted us to gather what was needed while she searched for rarer herbs further away.I wasn’t alone.Laina worked beside me, carefully sorting through the plants. She was a quiet woman, older than me by several years, with kind eyes and a

Tiara’s POV The full moon hung high, illuminating the village of ForestHowl with a silver glow. The air was thick with excitement, an almost electric energy pulsing through the gathered crowd.I stood at the edge, watching silently as warriors prepared for the sacred hunt.Nicholas had insisted I come.I wasn’t sure why. I wasn’t a hunter. I wasn’t even one of them.Yet, here I was, standing among a pack that wasn’t mine, watching as the strongest prepared to prove themselves under the full moon.Laughter and chatter filled the night, wolves greeting each other, stretching their limbs, rolling their shoulders in preparation.Some of the women were watching the men closely, their eyes filled with admiration.I pretended not to notice.Nicholas stood at the center of it all, exuding dominance without even trying.Even from where I stood, I could feel the weight of his presence.His Beta, Wright, stood beside him, discussing something in hushed tones.Then, as if sensing my gaze, Nichol

Tiara's POVThe halls of the pack house were quiet as I walked, the soft glow of the torches lining the walls illuminating the walls and sending a warm light over the wooden floors. It had become a habit of mine, walking late at night when the house was still. It was the only time I could think without interruptions. It was the time I could get to look at things more keenly without worrying that I was bring trailed by eyes.But tonight, as I passed Nicholas’s office, I noticed something unusual.The door was slightly open—unlike the other times when I'd tried to reach him but saw the doors firmly shut—the warm light from inside spilling into the dim hallway. I paused, unsure if I should continue past or peek in. My fingers hesitated over the doorframe before I gently pushed it open a little more.Nicholas was sitting at his desk, a glass in his hand, a bottle of whiskey beside him. He was staring at nothing in particular, lost in thought. His usual strong posture was gone, his shoulde

Tiara's POVI stood in front of Alpha Nicholas’s desk, my hands curling into fists at my sides. My chest felt tight, but I forced myself to speak clearly. "Please," I said. "Bring Nina here. She has no one in MoonCrown. Phoebe and Luna Victoria won’t stop making her suffer."Alpha Nicholas sat back in his chair, watching me. He didn't say anything right away. His expression didn’t change, but I knew he was thinking. He never rushed decisions. That was something I had learned about him. He liked to weigh everything before acting.Not because he couldn't just make any decisions, but because he understood how not to abuse the authority he had over those under him.After what felt like forever, he finally spoke. "You want me to take someone from MoonCrown," he said. "Even though she is part of that pack."I straightened my back. "She doesn’t belong there," I said quickly. "She is treated like she’s worthless. She doesn’t have family, she doesn’t have anyone looking out for her. She’s alon

Tiara’s POVThe moment Nina arrived at the ForestHowl pack, I felt like a weight had been lifted from my chest.Alpha Nicholas had kept to his word and he'd brought her.Standing at the entrance of the packhouse, I watched as she stepped off the horse that had carried her here. Her eyes moved slowly across her surroundings, taking in the towering trees, the strong stone walls, and the pack members who moved about their daily tasks. She clutched the small bag she carried, the only thing she owned."Nina," I called gently, stepping forward.Her eyes snapped to mine, and for a moment, she just stared. Then, her lips trembled, and she rushed forward, throwing her arms around me."You’re really here," I whispered, holding her tightly.She nodded against my shoulder. "I thought I’d never leave that place," she admitted, voice shaky. "I thought I’d probably die there."I pulled away slightly to look at her. "You won’t have to think like that anymore. You’re safe here."She let out a breath a
