All Chapters of The Mate's Forbidden Secrets : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

She hummed as she raked her eyes over my form. “Your child is about to lose both her life and the life of her if Valerie doesn't get those herbs.” Aria suddenly spat. “Or do you not care about a single soul but yourself.” The old ladies brows knitted. “Nymeria?” She lifted her brow. “You want to make the herbs?” Her appreciative eyes from before now turned to doubt. “If you want to, I can check her and then access the situation and treat her–” “No. Valerie will do it.” She interrupted. Her mother looked me up and down. “She doesn't look–” “Mother, please not now.” Aria stressed and in minutes we were given passage to what looked like a herbal garden. I stepped into the room and stopped by the entrance. I felt like I could cry from just the sight alone. It was beautiful. I'd never seen anything like it. Each row of herbs was surrounded with transparent plastic cans like material over it. One look at how neatly planned, trimmed and organized it was and one could tell it was made

My body stiffened and I held my breathe. I tried to move away from him but the attack of a searing heat had me clinging back onto him. I whimpered again. “Where hurts?" The deep, possessive voice from above me asked and my throat went try. My heart clenched tightly. “Valerie?" He called. I couldn't respond. “Valerie?" He called again and I shook my head. "Tell me, where's hurting?” His voice sounded pained. Like my pain was hurting him in turn. A knock came from a door. His skin left mine again and my back arched off the bed with a breathless whimper. "Give me a moment.” He blew into my hair. He body completely left mine and another wave of heat hit me like a tornado so bad, it had my body twisting into a position I should never have been able to get into. I felt possessed. My hair clung to my sweaty skin and so did my clothes. I wanted it off but I couldn't voice my thoughts out. A blur of murmurs reached my ears but even now, only his voice stood out. My soul yearne

Cautiously I passed through the closet in awe and shock. I walked towards the bathroom and had my bath. When I was done, I put on new clothes and hurried out of the door. I was supposed to check on how Luna Nymeria was doing this morning. Riley was standing outside when I got there. She let me head away a few steps before her before following me. The pack house was a five floor building. The werewolves had enough strength to go back and forth with no problem but not me. I was panting heavily by the time I finally got down the stairs. After last night's exhaustion. Doing stretches and exercises exhausted me more than it should. Multiple eyes turned to me like it had been since I've been hurrying past the stairs. My back stiffened and I walked past the observing eyes nervously and stiffly. I let out a breathe when I get to the front of the pack house successfully. I turn to find Riley stiff far behind but her eyes were directly watching my every move. My eyes

“So no matter what's going on between the both of you. I just want you to be very careful okay?" She asked, looking serious again and I nodded.I didn't know what else to say to that.“I'm for team Zuriana though.” Luna Nymeria suddenly chipped in, making us all burst into a fit of laughter. They always knew how to make the most difficult topics for me sound so easy.I let out a nervous laugh of my own, biting my lips.“Valerie do you think I could atleast go for a short stroll? I don't think I could bare sitting on my ass like this fora full month." Luna Nymeria whined and I nodded."You actually could, now that you have the herbs but you have to promise to tell you when you feel any sort of distress Luna Nymeria.” I stressed out, getting her to understand how serious it is for her to let us know.Her eyes widened a little and she stared at me pointedly. I was beginning to wonder why. “Luna Nymeria? You just saved my life and we'll still on that basis.” I blinked."You're still—" sh

I raced past the grounds in a blur. My body snapping against thorns, my feets scrunching leaves on the ground. I couldn't think. But I could hear the loud beating of my heart in my ears. My eyes sharpened into view as they scanned through the forest like I was the predator and not the prey. I didn't know how long I ran but the heavy foot chasing behind me faded long ago. My feet hauled to a stop in front of what looked like the largest tree in the forest. I didn't know how far in the woods I was. The same raging panic hit me like a feral ball. My head snapped to the side and there I heard it. A screeching weasel like a dying cat. I ran to the right and a gasp left me as I saw it. A wolf laid breathing on the floor. It hadn't shifted back to it's human form yet. I took slow steps towards the wolf. My mind feeling like a semblance of myself for once. Cautious. The wolf growled helplessly as I neared it. I winced at the sight of the large gash on its side. “You're supposed t
