All Chapters of Wolfless Hybrid: The Awakened Witch : Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

Maya's POV I was so relieved to see my mate standing there, fearless, facing off against three ranked wolves. We had only been apart for one night, but it felt like years.Still, I couldn’t shake the unease twisting in my gut. I didn’t understand why Vera attacked us the way she did. The moment I saw her, I felt both confused and afraid. I had read about dark magic in one of the books my mother gave me, but that was nothing compared to facing it in real life. No amount of reading could have prepared me for the raw terror of coming face-to-face with a dark witch.Mom wasn’t one, she never practiced dark magic, so there was no way I could have learned firsthand. But I remembered what I had read: dark magic feeds on energy, on life force itself. That’s why the shields we tried to cast were absorbed so quickly, it wasn’t just overpowering us, it was consuming everything we threw at it.What scared me most was the thought that even after awakening my power, I still might have failed to pr

Maya's POV 'I reject you, Maya.'The words landed like a hammer to my chest, and everything inside me collapsed. My knees buckled beneath me as I crumpled to the ground, breath caught in my throat, my heart seized in a crushing grip.Meliza was the closest and rushed to my side. “Are you okay, Ca..” Her words froze mid-sentence as she suddenly dropped to her knees too, clutching her chest.Panic flared.I glanced around.Lauren, Ashton, and Gabriel were all struggling, each of them pressing a hand over their hearts like something had reached in and wrenched it tight.Aira leapt down from the wall, Noah followed. Immediately moving toward us, eyes sharp and scanning.But I couldn’t breathe. Couldn’t think. The world was spinning.Then I forced myself to lift my head, and saw him.Oliver.He was on one knee, one arm wrapped around his chest, jaw clenched in pain. But that wasn’t all. His skin, his skin was starting to burn under the sun.“Oliver!” I cried out, reaching for him with tre

Ciara's POV Wade had called Ashton to inform him that Vera had escaped from the cells and might be somewhere in Blackwood. I needed to gather enough strength to reach my daughter, I just needed a moment to collect myself. I didn’t know what Vera was planning, but whatever it was, I had to stop her.Wade must be more shaken than he let on. I know he realizes now what he’s done. That’s something, at least. But I don’t want him with me because of guilt. Not because he feels sorry. I want him to be with me because he wants to be. Because I’m the only woman he truly desires.I did hear him shut her down, hard. I heard him say he had never flirted with her and never wanted her. And as much as I wanted to feel relief, I couldn’t let myself be happy about it. Just because he didn’t lead her on doesn’t mean he was innocent. He still let her flirt. He let her put her hands on him, right in front of me. While I stood there. His mate.That moment changed nothing. He still ignored me when I begged

Ciara's POV “You were so broken over me touching your mate that you didn’t even notice, you dropped your guard." Vera's voice dropped into a taunting whisper. "You might be stronger than me, Ciara, but you’re still pathetic. Weak. You don’t deserve him.”Her expression twisted with rage and obsession.“He was mine, bitch. Until you showed up. Did you really think I’d roll over and let you have him? Get real. That was never going to happen.”She leaned forward slightly, her voice full of venom.“Or did you forget that he stayed behind to comfort me for nearly an hour after you stormed off that day? That had to hurt, didn’t it?”Vera’s smirk was pushing every last nerve I had. I wanted to end her right then and there, but there was something I needed to confirm first. A suspicion that had been gnawing at me. I needed to know if she had conditioned him. Deep down, I was almost certain, but I needed to hear it. For my own clarity. If I was right, it would explain so much... and maybe, jus

Wade's POV Vera laughed out loud, as if everything happening around her was some kind of joke. I turned back to look at her, and the moment our eyes met, she sneered, “I hate you, Wade. I hope Ciara rejects you. You made me lose everything, and now I hope you lose it all, too.”The rage hit me fast. I surged forward, ready to rip her head off for what she had done to my mate. Timber clawed at me from within, demanding to finish it himself. But before I could get close, I felt Ciara’s hand on my arm, her touch calming the storm just enough.“I’ll handle her,” she said quietly. “Don’t worry about it.”Ciara turned to Henry. “Do you have a name for me?”“I do,” he replied. “The witch who helped her is named Talia. But reaching her won’t be simple. She works from the back of her home, and the entire area is warded, spelled to keep out anyone who might be a threat. That said… I know how to get you in.”“That’s all I needed to know,” Ciara said, her tone calm and controlled.“No, you can’t
