All Chapters of Wanted by my ex mate : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Aurora.I couldn’t breathe. The air around me felt thick, like I was suffocating. My chest tightened, and with each breath, it became harder to get enough air. I stood by the windowsill, my hand gripping the edge of the cold marble, trying to steady myself. But it wasn’t working. Panic surged within me. Something was wrong, something terrible.The coffee. The taste of cinnamon still lingered in the back of my throat. I hadn’t thought much about it at first, but now, my lungs were seizing. It felt like fire coursing through my veins, and I couldn’t stop the coughing.“Vivian!” I gasped, clutching my throat. “Vivian!”Within seconds, Vivian was at the door, her eyes wide with alarm. “My lady?” Her voice was urgent, and she rushed to my side, supporting me as my body shook with another violent cough.“I need to go to the hospital,” I managed to say between wheezing breaths. My head spun, and the world around me began to blur.She didn’t hesitate. Vivian didn’t ask questions. She was alre

Aurora.I stumbled into my room, my breath coming in shallow gasps as I slammed the door behind me. The weight of what had just happened pressed down on me like a mountain, threatening to crush me under its sheer force. My hands trembled as I leaned against the door, my heart pounding in my chest.How? How had I done that? How had I lifted Ivan like she was nothing but a ragdoll? I stared at my hands, willing them to stop shaking. I couldn’t understand it. I was an omega. Weak, small, and insignificant in the grand scheme of the pack. But today, something had changed. Something inside me had snapped, and I had felt... powerful.I looked down at my arms, the muscles tight and aching, and my mind spun with confusion. What’s going on? My wolf, was just as confused as I was. She hadn’t given me any warning or explanation."This is strange," my wolf's voice echoed in my mind, filled with the same bewilderment I felt. "You’re an omega. We shouldn’t be able to do this. This strength... it’s

Ethan.I was going to break something. My fist clenched, unclenched. Again. Again. I paced the room like a caged animal, the wooden floor groaning beneath my boots. My heart thundered in my chest, my breathing shallow and uneven. Every time I closed my eyes, her voice echoed in my head."I have a boyfriend, Ethan."Boyfriend.The word burned like acid. My jaw clenched so tightly I thought I’d crack a molar. Aurora had a boyfriend. Someone who wasn't me. Someone who got to kiss her, touch her, hold her while she slept—"Stop." I growled under my breath, dragging a hand through my hair. My wolf growled low in my head, pacing right along with me.You’re the one who rejected her, my wolf snapped. You told her she wasn’t yours. Don’t start now like you’ve got a claim."I didn’t mean it!" I roared, slamming my palm against the nearest wall. The impact reverberated through my bones, but the pain wasn’t enough to distract me. "I didn't—" I sucked in a ragged breath. "It was supposed to protec

Aurora.I was exhausted. Another sleepless night behind me. My insomnia was only getting worse.I waved at Kaiser with a bright smile, though a flicker of guilt passed through me. I hadn’t thought about him once since arriving in The palace. That was strange, now that I realized it. For the past few months, Kaiser had been my favorite person by far. We’d had so much fun—attending parties, clubs, horse races, and football competitions. Everyone said we were perfectly suited.I’d always assumed he would propose someday—and that I’d accept. I was graduating fashion school next year, after all. Becoming a single parents wasn't bad, but then kaiser would make such a great dad for Ama, and I doubted I’d find a more appropriate match than Kaiser. My parents had never stated it outright, but I’d grown up knowing the man I married would need to have the right qualifications: wealth, status, charm. And, of course, I expected to fall in love with him. For a time, I thought I had. Or something cl

Ethan.The phone in my hand felt heavier than usual as I dialed the number I had paid a hefty sum to. It rang twice before the low voice of the spy came through the line, gruff and slightly distorted from the cheap connection."Speak.""Tell me what you know about my beta," I said, my voice cold and authoritative, the words leaving my mouth with an edge that had been honed from years of leadership and power.There was a long pause before the spy spoke again. "Your beta… he’s been busy, Ethan. Very busy."My mind immediately went on high alert. I leaned forward in my chair, gripping the phone tighter as if it could anchor me to reality. "Busy with what?""He’s been spotted frequently meeting with rogues," the spy continued. "More than usual. I’ve seen him outside the borders, near the perimeter. And I don’t believe it’s by chance. He's likely involved in the attacks on your borders, or at least connected to those who are."I swallowed hard, every word sinking into my gut like a stone.
