Semua Bab The Mate She Can’t See: Bab 101 - Bab 110

CHAPTER NINETY NINEGRAHAMI was halfway down the hallway when her scent changed. It hit me hard, making warning bells go off in my head. I felt anxious, laced with something bitter, like fear.I turned immediately, heart in my throat. Her room wasn’t far. I reached it in seconds, fist raised to knock, but the door opened before I could touch it.She stood in the doorway, barefoot, her face pale. There was something crumpled in her hand, and her arms were crossed like she was trying to hold herself together.Her voice was low, almost fragile. “Someone was in my room.”That one sentence slammed into my chest.“They left this.” She handed me the paper. Her hand trembled slightly.I unfolded the note carefully. My eyes scanned the words once, twice. Anger rose slowly, hot and cold all at once.“Stay away from him. You are mine and I don’t share.”The handwriting was elegant, precise and possessive. The scent on it was even worse. The distinct scent of a bloodsucking Vampire.“Did they to

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND ONEGRAHAMI didn’t move right away after walking Zoey back to her room.I just stood there, staring at the door I’d just closed behind her. The four guards I’d assigned were already at attention, tense and alert, but it didn’t feel like enough.It didn’t feel like anything was enough.Zoey had been shaking when I found her. Not just afraid, terrified. And the guard… the blood… I clenched my jaw so tightly I could feel the muscle jump beneath my skin.Someone had gotten past my defenses. Into my pack. To her. And I hadn’t been there to stop it.I turned and walked away, fast and silent. My steps echoed down the hall, but I didn’t care. I needed space. I needed to think. I needed to breathe, or I was going to explode.When I reached my chambers, I slammed the door behind me. The sound shook the walls.I paced the room like a caged animal, chest tight, hands curled into fists. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw her face. It was pale and tear-streaked, and she was

CHAPTER HUNDRED AND TWOZOEYThe wind was cool and soft as it brushed against my face. The sun wasn’t too harsh, and the streets were alive with quiet sounds, birds, chatter, the occasional bark of a dog in the distance.I was walking between Hannah and Lily, a soft smile tugging at my lips. We were downtown, in the small market square just outside the pack border, where wolves and humans traded food, clothes, and crafts. It smelled like bread and roasted meat, and I didn’t hate it.“Okay, I’ll say it,” Lily said, tugging off her sunglasses. “I like being outside today.”“You sound surprised,” Hannah said, flipping her braid over her shoulder.“I am. Last time I came here, some dude tried to sell me a love potion made out of rat teeth and rosewater.”“I remember that guy,” I said with a laugh. “He said it worked better if you chanted under the moon.”“Yeah, and then he winked at me like he wanted to test it on himself.”“You should’ve let him,” Hannah teased.We were halfway past a ro

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIVEZOEY The hallway was mostly empty, quiet except for the low voices behind the training room doors. I was on my way to check on Lily when it happened.One step, and then my foot hooked on something hard.I stumbled forward with a gasp, caught myself against the wall, and stayed still, breathing heavy. My heart jumped into my throat, but I didn’t fall. Laughter sounded behind me.“Oh no,” a voice said in fake surprise. “Are you okay? You looked like you were flying for a second.”It was Nicole. Of course.I straightened, turned around slowly, and met her eyes. She was leaning casually against the wall, arms crossed, looking smug as ever. Her two loyal shadows, Cassandra and Jenna, stood beside her both smirking like they’d just won a prize.I said nothing.Nicole clicked her tongue. “What, no ‘thank you’? I helped you practice your reflexes. You’re welcome.”I gave her a tight smile. “Sure. And I’m sure you didn’t mean to stick your foot out either, right

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENGRAHAMThe council room was quiet.I had just finished giving out patrol orders for the week. A few warriors stayed behind, asking about training schedules and rogue sightings, but my mind was elsewhere, on Zoey, as always.I hadn’t seen her since this morning. She’d left early, said she needed some time with Lily. I let her go, trusting she’d come back when she was ready. I didn’t expect her to come back like this.The doors slammed open so hard they bounced off the walls. Everyone turned, and there she was.Her eyes were wild. Her hair was slightly windblown. Her chest was rising and falling like she’d run all the way here. But it wasn’t the way she looked that made the room fall silent, it was the anger coming off her in waves.Without a word, she marched straight toward me.“Zoey,” I said slowly, standing. “What happened?”She stopped a few feet from me and crossed her arms. Her voice was steady, but her hands trembled at her sides.“Nicole and her fr
