บททั้งหมดของ Betrayed By My Alpha Mate: บทที่ 21 - บทที่ 30

KARAEverything disappeared at that moment. I got lost in his eyes, watching as they flickered between his Wolf’s and his own. My feet refused to move, my Wolf howling inside my head, emotions surging with no restraint. Dylan Gaspar. He stared right back at me, unwavering. I must have zoned out because suddenly, I felt strong hands tapping me out of my thoughts. “Kara.” Murphy’s voice pulled me back, and I blinked rapidly, tearing my gaze away from Dylan. My heart was a chaotic mess, my pulse erratic. “I… I’m sorry,” I whispered, my voice shaky. I refused to meet Dylan’s gaze, knowing he was still watching me. “Welcome, guys. Please, Kara, step forward for introductions,” the older woman from earlier instructed. Slowly, I took a step forward, keeping my eyes on the ground, refusing to acknowledge the man who was still burning holes into me with his stare. “This is Kara Nox,” Murphy announced. “Our newest addition to the Brokers. Her file has already been added to your

DYLANConcentration was a lost cause. The only thing in my head—no, in my entire damn being—was her. My mate. Her scent filled the room, seeping into my skin, leaving me at her mercy. But I had a plan. A cruel one. I saw the flicker of hurt in her eyes when I ignored her. It took every ounce of self-control not to reach for her, not to give in to my Wolf’s restless growls demanding I claim what’s mine. “Boss, these are the latest tasks at hand. I received them two days ago,” Murphy spoke, placing a file on my desk. I flipped through the pages, scanning the details of the company’s ongoing projects. “When do you intend to get on with these?” “In a week, it should be completed.” My gaze drifted toward her—Kara. My precious lamb. She sat at the far end of the room, close to the door, as if she were trying to escape me. A foolish attempt. “When does Kara begin fieldwork?” Silence. Every eye in the room turned toward me. But the only one that mattered was hers. Our gaz

I fought viciously, dodging their attacks while landing my own. The fight was brutal, my body moving on instinct, fueled by desperation. Then, I saw it—glinting steel in the moonlight. Daggers. My senses sharpened, every muscle coiling in preparation. A low growl rumbled through the air as some of them half-shifted, their claws ripping through their gloves, fangs elongating. They were done playing. They circled me like a pack of wolves hunting prey, eyes gleaming with sadistic anticipation. Shit. They lunged. I ducked at the last second, dropping low and sliding between an attacker's legs. My heart pounded as I sprinted ahead, my only advantage now was speed. I couldn’t afford to be reckless. If I kept fighting head-on, exhaustion would claim me before they did. The forest ahead loomed like salvation. I bolted toward it, narrowly avoiding the daggers that sliced through the air, missing me by inches. The pounding of footsteps behind me was relentless. “We can hear your h

The ride back home was silent, each of them lost in their own thoughts. Kara stared out the window, her mind in a frenzy of emotions. "You're home," Rodrigo’s voice pulled her back to the present. She blinked, realizing the car had stopped. Without a word, she pushed the door open and stepped out, but before she could walk away, Rodrigo called after her. "Sweet Kara, you are strong. You will overcome this storm ahead of you. I believe in you." Something in his voice made her chest tighten. She turned to him, her throat dry. "Thank you, Rodrigo. For everything," she whispered. She knew it now—her life was in danger. ASA wanted her eliminated. They would stop at nothing to silence her. At least she was safe here, for now. The apartment given to her by her new employers was deep within New Age Pack’s territory. They wouldn’t dare touch her here. After a hot shower, she collapsed onto her bed, naked, the heat of the water still clinging to her skin. Her body was exhausted, but

"What the hell just happened? And why would Neotides attack my house?“I demanded answers the second we stepped into Rodrigo’s house, my voice sharp, my chest still heaving from the adrenaline. Rodrigo barely glanced at me before steering me toward the stairs. “Relax, Kara. Go take a shower, and I promise to explain everything.” There was no room for protest. His hand on my back was firm, pushing me up the stairs like a father sending a reckless child to bed. I bit back a retort, my heart still racing. The attack had been brutal, unexpected. The fear in Kelly’s eyes haunted me. Stepping into my old room, I found her sprawled across the bed, her chest rising and falling in steady rhythm. Her limbs were flung carelessly, as if sleep had taken her hostage before she could find a comfortable position. My fingers traced the soft curve of her cheek. She had seen me shift. And she had looked at me like I was a monster. A heavy sigh left my lips. I'd have to face her when she woke
