Lahat ng Kabanata ng Hunted By My Mate; Craved By The Alpha Supreme : Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

"I didn't mean to... I swear... I didn't mean to set a fire..." My eyes snap open just as a sob crawls up my throat. Breathing heavily, I scan my environment, a sigh of relief escapes me to see I am still in the cabin, on the couch where I intended to keep watch but had somehow drifted off to sleep.Looking over at Alaric to assess his condition, I find his eyes are open and staring straight at me.He's conscious, and from the look of it, he has been for a good while. How long did I sleep for?Alaric's gaze on me is unsettling, his expression is unreadable and his eyes reveal no emotions. I cannot tell if I have again incurred his wrath or something worse.The silence is oppressive and I fidget uneasily before breaking it. "Are...are you still in pain?"Alaric does not respond immediately and just when I believe he does not plan to respond, he finally speaks. "The locket." Two words, a cold demand.I blink, staring at Alaric in confusion for a moment and Alaric stares back at me, hi

Strange black markings line the walls on both sides of the hallway that leads up to the familiar double doors, the black markings line the doors also, forming intricate patterns that twist unnaturally in the faint light.None of those had been there before, I note. The doors are slightly parted, and I hesitate for a moment but Top's voice is in my head again and I push aside my hesitation.The moment I cross the threshold, the doors slam shut behind me with a deafening finality. It is not the first time this is happening but the terror that creeps up my spine is just as potent as the previous times.I resist the urge to spin around and tug at the handle, I already know the doors will not budge.Unlike the dim lighting the other times, the room is completely dark, every semblance of light banished.My eyes still struggle to adjust when a low growl from deeper within the room greets me. Panic rises up my throat like bile and I distantly wonder if Silver Tech would turn on the lights if

The first streak of daylight reflects against my eyelids and my eyes slowly flutter open. The first sensation I become aware of is the dull ache in my sex, reminding me of the events from the night before.My eyes are itchy from the tears, the only thing that had finally softened Alaric's heart to let me cum after taking me twice in succession.It is difficult to get out of my head the force of pleasure that followed the long awaited climax and I breathe a quiet sigh.The weight of Alaric's hand over my waist is the second thing I take note of. I expected to wake up to an empty bed, but Alaric's soft breaths against my neck tells me my expectation was wrong.Turning my head slightly, heat rushes up to my cheeks to find Alaric is completely naked, having kicked off the duvet and his morning wood is visible in all its glory.It is difficult to fathom how Alaric can still be aroused after the events from the night before, but his deep sleep testifies to the fact that he is also exhausted

The Red Ember City is vastly different from Everdale. Unlike Everdale's array of high tech, sky rise buildings and corporate lifestyle, more common in Red Ember are vast ranches, low end bars and Victorian styled mansions with a much more laid back atmosphere.Red Ember City is considered a political concern to Everdale as it is not governed by a DA but a Sheriff and has never supported Everdale's political landscape.The population in Red Ember City is also different, numbering to just a quarter of Everdale's population which matches the small size of the city, Red Ember City is largely populated by unique shifters with an almost nonexistent human population.Just like Everdale, the humans in Red Ember City live unaware to the fact that they are surrounded by shifters all around.Our destination is one of the few prominent structures in Red Ember City, a towering building with minimalist designs. The street leading up to it is tarred, unlike the more common dirt roads and the name pl

~Alaric~The study is in a peaceful silence, save for the occasional sound of Cedric tapping on the arm of the chair he sits on, across the desk from where I sit. It has already been a good few minutes since he came into my study and Cedric is yet to say a word, though I can tell he has a lot to say.The file on my desk has my full attention, and it seems to further agitate Cedric that I have not paid him any attention since he arrived. Knowing Cedric as long as I have, I can tell but I do not acknowledge it, nor plan to."It has been a week...you haven't asked once." Cedric finally broke the silence. "I do not understand you.""Asked about what?" I ask absentmindedly, turning the pages on the file I am working on. "Do not feign ignorance." Cedric replied, unimpressed by my response. "It is hardly possible that her absence has gone unnoticed by you. So why have you not asked?"'Her.' It is obvious to me who Cedric is referring to. Kyra... the girl he recruited to seduce me and get in
